Bassoro might have felt that telling Lin Yun about the Monchi Family's alchemy exhibition was the same as selling the young Great Mage a favor.
Unfortunately, Lin Yun didn't feel that way.
Lin Yun didn't have the time to care about the exhibition. Fifty Alchemists had come to the Gilded Rose today, and Lin Yun had to personally talk to each of them. Lin Yun had to personally make arrangements for each of them. He was so busy that his feet barely touched the ground. Let alone the Monchi Family's alchemy exhibition, even if the Monchi Family held a memorial service, Lin Yun wouldn't have the time to send a wreath.
He was truly too busy …
Fifty Alchemists … Some were proficient in potioneering, some were proficient in puppetry, some were proficient in enchanting, some were proficient in arrays, and so on … In the entire Gilded Rose, only Lin Yun could understand their actual level through talking to them, and only Lin Yun could make arrangements for them based on their actual level.
Lin Yun didn't have enough time to deal with these fifty Alchemists, so how could he have the time to care about the Monchi Family's alchemy exhibition?
These Alchemists weren't easy to deal with. They usually relied on their status as members of the Alchemist Guild to look down on the alchemy shops of Thousand Sails City. Even if they occasionally accepted a job, they would be treated like a boss. Even if the owners of those alchemy shops were in front of them, they wouldn't give them any face before slamming the table and cursing them.
Moreover, no one dared to say anything.
There was a saying that had been circulating in the Alchemist Guild of Thousand Sails City.
"Running an alchemy shop is too simple. It doesn't matter if you don't have materials, it doesn't matter if you don't have funds, it doesn't matter if you don't have a boss. As long as you have an Alchemist, that's enough."
This might sound a bit exaggerated, but it was true most of the time. To an alchemy shop, the most important thing was the Alchemist. Usually, the owner of an alchemy shop would only care about his Alchemist. So what if he was scolded a bit? As long as they were willing to help him make money, beating them up was normal.
These Alchemists were used to being treated like masters, but now that they had been sent to the Gilded Rose by Bassoro, it would be a lie to say that they weren't dissatisfied.
But Bassoro's status in the Alchemist Guild was second only to Leader Lys, and his words were final. Even if these Alchemists were courageous, they wouldn't dare to be dissatisfied with Bassoro.
But just because he didn't dare to be dissatisfied with Bassoro didn't mean he didn't dare to be dissatisfied with Lin Yun.
Everyone present was a member of the Alchemist Guild. Giving fifty of them to the Gilded Rose was already a grievance, but Lin Yun hadn't expected that the boss of the Gilded Rose to think so highly of himself. He split the work of so many Alchemists. Some were in charge of enchantment, some were in charge of enchanting, some were in charge of selecting materials, some were in charge of potion compounding …
A few Alchemists with bad tempers flared up on the spot. 'What is this? Are you treating us Alchemists like Apprentice Alchemists?
What a joke! Although Alchemists don't participate in the management of the alchemy shop, they always have the final say in the alchemy laboratory. Does the boss of the Gilded Rose not understand the rules? If you are that good, why would you need us Alchemists? You could just calmly count your golds, why are you giving us orders? '
They originally thought that after these Alchemists flared up, the boss of the Gilded Rose would at least be a bit more restrained.
But they hadn't expected that he wouldn't even bat an eyelid as he asked with a beaming smile, "How about I let Great Alchemist Bassoro personally arrange it?"
Once these words came out, the ill-tempered Alchemists immediately became better.
'What a joke, let Great Alchemist Bassoro personally arrange it. Who in the entire Alchemist Guild doesn't know that Mafa Merlin is sucking up to Great Alchemist Bassoro?' If Great Alchemist Bassoro personally made the arrangements, none of these people would have a good time.
In the end, only two Alchemists were still not willing to give up.
Lin Yun directly ignored them.
He only paid attention to these two Alchemists, one old and one young. The old one was in his fifties, while the young one was in his twenties. Lin Yun knew that the young one was the Alchemist Bassoro had strongly recommended, Hauss. He was 25 this year and had been an Alchemist for three years. In other words, he was a genius that had become an Alchemist at the age of 22. He wasn't much inferior to the Black Horn Auction House's Faleau.
It was normal for young geniuses to be a bit arrogant, especially someone like Hauss. He had become an Alchemist at the age of 22 and was a member of the Alchemist Guild. He was talented and had many opportunities. He had a bright future ahead of him, yet he was sent to the Gilded Rose with a few words from Bassoro. It would be a lie if he didn't feel resentful.
But as for the other old Alchemist, Lin Yun frowned.
That Alchemist was in his fifties. He had an ordinary appearance and an ordinary skill. He was the kind of person that wouldn't leave an impression even if you met him ten times. Lin Yun had to ask around before learning that his name was John. John, if there weren't ten thousand people with that name in Thousand Sails City, there were at least eight thousand of them. He couldn't be any more ordinary.
But such an ordinary Alchemist made Lin Yun pay attention to him a few times. That John usually stayed in the crowd and didn't speak much, but every time the other Alchemists complained, he would be the fiercest.
It seemed that Bassoro had given him yet another trouble.
Lin Yun didn't say anything, but he had already memorized John.
The morning quickly passed. He talked to every Alchemist and made arrangements for them. In the afternoon, he would take them to adapt to their new jobs.
"Boss Merlin, what is the meaning of this!" But when it was Hauss' turn, there was another problem.
The Gilded Rose had spent a lot of effort to settle these fifty Alchemists. The old butler bought a dozen houses in one go and turned them all into alchemy laboratories. Now, Lin Yun and Hauss were in one of the newly remodeled alchemy laboratories.
This alchemy laboratory had been assigned to Hauss, but that young genius was clearly very dissatisfied with it.
"What is the meaning of this?" Lin Yun couldn't help frowning. Although he didn't say anything, he was already feeling a bit annoyed at Bassoro.
'I straightforwardly gave you the alchemy formula, but you ended up giving me a bunch of masters. Especially that Hauss, he's really hard to deal with …'
"Boss Merlin, take a look at these magic materials. Isn't the quality a bit too inferior? This kind of quality is only suitable for Apprentice Alchemists to practice with, right? "Also, also, take a look at this alchemy table. Boss Merlin, your Gilded Rose doesn't need these tools, right? These tools were already outdated by the Alchemist Guild a decade ago. Did you find them in an antique market?"
