"This is our guild's vice president, Zhu Yiqun." The maid solemnly introduced the middle aged man to Lin Yun.
Lin Yun casually glanced at the middle aged man and discovered that he looked as if he had just woken up. He looked very comfortable and didn't look like he had just finished his work.
The maid then turned around and respectfully said to the middle aged man, "Mr. vice president, he is the one who wants to apply for the inscription master position."
Zhu Yiqun looked at Lin Yun with disdain, then frowned and said to the maid, "Don't you know that I'm very busy? How can I let this kind of brat come in and mess around! "
"I … I'm sorry, Mr. vice president, I'll take him away." The maid repeatedly apologized and then pulled Lin Yun away.
But before her soft hand could touch Lin Yun, Lin Yun dodged it at an even faster speed.
Lin Yun took a step forward. It seemed like a casual step, but he instantly passed the maid and appeared in front of Zhu Yiqun. He placed the inscription symbol in his hand on the wooden table in front of him.
"I'm not here to mess around."
Lin Yun's voice was very calm, without the slightest hint of emotion.
This was because Lin Yun had already expected that the people of the inscription master guild would look down on him because he was a youth, and even not let him take the inscription master examination.
Because of this, Lin Yun specially made the inscription symbol in advance to prove to those who looked down on him.
But no matter how much Lin Yun calculated, he still underestimated Zhu Yiqun's stupidity.
Zhu Yiqun didn't even bother to look at the inscription symbol on the wooden table. His face was full of disdain as he sneered.
"A little brat who only learned a little bit, messing around with a prototype inscription symbol. It can't even be considered a semi-finished product, and you still dare to show off in front of me?"
"Do you really think that any random Tom, Dick, or Harry can become an Inscription Master in our guild?"
Lin Yun coldly said, "You haven't even checked it yet, how can you be sure that this is a prototype?"
Zhu Yiqun laughed mockingly and put on an unapproachable attitude. "Do you still need to check? For an apprentice like you to come up with something like this, it would be an exaggeration to say that it's a prototype. "
"In my opinion, you are just a model! If I really went to check your model, then I would be as stupid as you! "
"Take your model and get lost. I don't have time to play house with a little kid like you!"
Hearing Zhu Yiqun's unbridled belittlement, Lin Yun's gaze became colder and colder.
He had waited bitterly outside for two hours, and when he finally had the chance to enter, Zhu Yiqun didn't even give him the chance to take the test.
He didn't even look at his inscription symbol, and had already determined that his inscription symbol was a prototype, or even a model!
"You will come begging to apply for my position." Lin Yun coldly threw down these words and expressionlessly put away the inscription symbol on the table. Then he turned around and left without looking back.
Zhu Yiqun looked at Lin Yun's departing back and disdainfully laughed. "Arrogant junior, you want me to beg you to apply for my position? You really don't know the immensity of heaven and earth! "
…
After leaving the Inscription Association, Lin Yun immediately rushed back to the Tang Merchant Association.
Seeing Lin Yun return, Tang Shian wasn't surprised. This was because Lin Yun being rejected by the Inscription Association was completely within his expectations.
Tang Shian thought that Lin Yun was at a loss, so he kindly comforted Lin Yun and said, "Don't be sad. After all, your thoughts are not realistic. It's normal that you weren't hired."
Lin Yun didn't explain anything to Tang Shian, nor did he bother to explain. He only handed over the two inscription symbols to Tang Shian, and told him to sell them in the shop.
All the money from the sale would go to the Tang Merchant Association. Lin Yun didn't want a single cent, as long as these two inscription symbols could be sold.
Tang Shian took the two inscription symbols and looked at Lin Yun with a helpless expression. "Are you sure you can sell them?"
As everyone knew, inscription symbols were different from pills.
The grade of a pill could be determined by its color.
But the quality of an inscription symbol could only be determined by an inscription master.
There were very few inscription masters in Yuzhou City, and the Tang Merchant Association didn't even have one.
Looking at the entire Tang Merchant Association, there was no one that could distinguish the quality of an inscription symbol. They couldn't even tell if the inscription symbol was a finished product or a finished product.
Because of this, the Tang Merchant Association's scope of business covered all major fields, but they were unable to break into the inscription symbol market.
The Tang Merchant Association's major shops only sold inscription symbol materials, and didn't sell inscription symbols.
Tang Shian didn't know if the inscription symbol in his hands was a finished product or a prototype. Because of this, he didn't know how to set a price.
Lin Yun didn't tell Tang Shian how heaven defying these two inscription symbols were.
Because Lin Yun knew that even if he told him, Tang Shian wouldn't believe him.
"You can sell it as an inferior semi-finished product."
After leaving these words, Lin Yun turned around and left, not even looking back.
"Semi-Finished product?" Tang Shian looked at the inscription symbol in his hands, his eyes filled with doubt. It was obvious that he didn't believe Lin Yun.
A semi-finished inscription symbol, no matter how inferior it was, could still be used. If it was inscribed on a weapon or equipment, it would have a little effect.
As for the prototype, it was no different from a model. If it was inscribed on a weapon or equipment, there would be no effect.
If it was a semi-finished product, then it would be fine. But if it was a prototype, then it would be a joke if it was sold.
This was completely smashing the Tang Merchant Association's reputation!
It wasn't that Tang Shian didn't believe in Lin Yun, but he didn't dare to gamble the Tang Merchant Association's reputation.
Including Lin Yun's skill in alchemy, it was indeed unparalleled.
But no one was perfect. No matter how monstrous a genius was, it was impossible to be proficient in all aspects and all martial arts.
Tang Shian didn't believe that other fields, including Lin Yun's, would have any skill in alchemy.
Especially in such a rare field like inscription patterns. Even many old scholars spent their entire lives studying it, but were unable to achieve anything.
He was just a youth, so how could he achieve anything?
Thinking of this, Tang Shian made a decision. He planned to treat these two inscription symbols as prototypes made by an apprentice and sell them at the lowest possible price.
In any case, Lin Yun didn't want money, as long as he could sell them. And the Tang Merchant Association didn't care about this small amount of money, as long as their reputation wasn't damaged.
Just like this, the two inscription symbols that Lin Yun gave to Tang Shian flowed into the Tang Merchant Association's low level grocery store, and were sold at a very low price.
In the afternoon of the same day, a fourteen or fifteen year old girl visited the shop that sold inscription symbols.
This girl had a pair of big innocent eyes, and curved eyelashes that made her look cute and playful. She was filled with a youthful and dreamy aura.
"Little girl, what do you want to buy?" The store manager asked.
The girl pointed at the inscription symbol that Lin Yun made, "Is this really an inscription symbol?"
"Yes." The store manager nodded.
"Is it really only 1000 gold coins for one?" The girl's face was filled with disbelief. In her mind, any inscription symbol would easily cost millions of gold coins.
Even if it was an inferior semi-finished product, it would still cost tens of thousands of gold coins.
