News of Lin Jin passing the Rank 2 beast appraiser's examination spread like wildfire. Everyone was now saying that he was the youngest Rank 2 beast appraiser in Maple City.
A Rank 2 beast appraiser was an honorable title. It was no wonder many female beast appraisers were moved. Even if some of them were asked to throw themselves at him, they would be more than willing to do so.
Lin Jin finally got to enjoy this' vanity '.
Many people pretended to be dignified, saying that it was vanity and that they didn't like it. But when they actually had it, they were still elated.
Lin Jin felt that there was no need to be so fake. If he liked it, he liked it.
Hence, he walked all the way to his consultation hall. Feeling that it wasn't enough, he took a detour and walked through it again.
Inside the consultation hall, Zhao Ying, Lu Xiaoyun, and Han Dong were already there. After witnessing Lin Jin's actions, they knew what was going on. They held their foreheads helplessly.
"Have you heard? Appraiser Lin's consultation hall was sold out early this morning."
"Duh, how could I not know? Wang Ji was the only one who received such treatment in the past."
"Don't mention that person. He suppressed his subordinates and plagiarized others. His reputation is completely ruined. I heard that headquarters has started an investigation on him. If he's not clean, forget becoming chief, he won't even be able to keep his beast appraiser license."
"Right, now that the chief position of the association is vacant, do you think headquarters will promote the current chief or send someone else from headquarters?"
"Who knows? But it's most likely that one of the three elders will temporarily take over."
Tan Lin hadn't left yet.
With such a major incident happening in Maple City's Beast Appraisal Association, as an inspector, how could she leave now?
Now that she had removed Wang Ji from his position, headquarters would make arrangements to investigate him. She kept her promise and applied for her resignation from headquarters yesterday. After all, she was responsible for her negligence this time.
It was just that Tan Lin had never imagined that after the headquarters revoked her position as an inspector, she would receive a new appointment from the headquarters last night.
She would temporarily assume the role of chief of Maple City's Beast Appraisal Association.
Although Tan Lin was young, she was considered a very young Rank 2 beast appraiser even at headquarters. She had sufficient qualifications, but she didn't have any experience as a chief.
However, she had no way of rejecting the orders from headquarters, especially with Tan Xun cheering her on.
Other than that, Tan Lin had other plans in mind. Staying in Maple City for the time being was not a bad idea. After all, there weren't many opportunities for her to become a chief. On one hand, she could gain management experience. On the other hand, she could raise her qualifications and hone her beast appraising skills.
As the appointment was only issued last night, Maple City's Beast Appraisal Association hadn't been officially notified yet. However, something like this couldn't be delayed so this morning, she summoned the three elders of the association to announce the matter.
The three elders naturally had different expressions.
Elder Du was nonchalant. He did not care who became the Guild Leader. Elder Mo had a cold personality and did not care about power or whatnot. Only Nan Gongxian felt a little uncomfortable when he heard the order from the headquarters.
Originally, he thought that according to convention, one of the three elders would temporarily hold the position of president.
He was prepared for this, and he liked this kind of power.
Although the status of the Elders was high, their actual power was not great. It was not enough to be compared to the Guild Leader. If the Elders held the position of Guild Leader, then their power would be monstrous.
Unfortunately, his beautiful dream was shattered.
Nan Gongxian was upset but there was nothing he could do. Although Tan Lin was young, she was already a Rank 2 beast appraiser with sufficient qualifications. Most importantly, she had a Rank 3 beast appraiser for a father.
Nan Gongxian couldn't compare.
Inside the hall, Tan Lin took a deep breath and said, "All three of you are my seniors. I hope that you will take care of me in the future."
Tan Lin was experienced in dealing with situations like this. After all, she came from a noble family.
"Sure, sure!" Elder Du nodded with a smile.
"Keep up the good work!" Elder Mo gave her a rare encouragement.
"Chief Tan, please let us know if you have any orders. We will definitely cooperate." Nan Gongxian sounded slightly dissatisfied.
How could Tan Lin not hear it? But she pretended not to.
After informing the three elders, the next step was to notify the entire Beast Appraisal Association.
Just as Lin Jin was busying himself, the association's notification arrived.
"Chief Tan Lin?" Lin Jin was surprised.
To him, that girl didn't seem much older than him, did she? She's already grown up?
Speaking of Tan Lin, Lin Jin was initially resentful. After all, she had blindly listened to Wang Ji and the others and tried to kill him.
Fortunately, Lin Jin wasn't a pushover. He countered every move and averted disaster.
However, the fact that she was willing to learn from her mistakes and tried her best to make up for it made Lin Jin's impression of her improve. Strictly speaking, Tan Lin wasn't a bad person. She was just a little willful and arrogant.
Come to think of it, Tan Lin being chief was a good thing.
It was better than Nan Gongxian being chief.
"Appraiser Lin, Chief Tan has said that all consultation halls are busy so please continue with your work. At noon, all beast appraisers will be invited to the main hall to officially inform headquarters of your appointment." The messenger was very polite to Lin Jin. Anyone who wasn't blind could tell that Lin Jin wasn't just an official beast appraiser, he was also a Rank 2 beast appraiser. One could even say that Lin Jin was second only to the chief.
After delivering the message, the messenger left.
Lin Jin continued appraising and treating beasts.
Due to his rising reputation, the number of people who came to him for beast appraisal and rare beasts had increased tenfold compared to before. Lin Jin's number plate at the front hall had also increased accordingly.
The number of plates a beast appraiser was allowed to put out in a day was decided beforehand and the appraiser's opinion would be sought.
In the past, no one had asked for Lin Jin's opinion because no one cared about his number plate.
Today, his number plate had been emptied early in the morning. Hence, someone from the front hall came to ask if they could add more plates.
Had it been anyone else, they probably wouldn't have agreed. Beast appraising and treating beasts was exhausting, but Lin Jin didn't have such a problem. Glancing at the time, he asked the person at the front hall to double his number plate.
That person thought he had misheard.
"Appraiser Lin, are you sure you want to double the number plate?" The female apprentice held a small notebook in her hand and reminded him softly, "You're currently issuing thirty-five plates per day. If you double it, wouldn't that be a little too much?"
She clearly meant well.
After all, appraising or treating seventy pet beasts in a day was a tiring task. Appraiser Gao Jiang only managed to get thirty-five number plates per day. As for the former Chief Wang Ji, he only managed to get thirty number plates per day.
"It's fine. I'll double it!" Lin Jin was certain.
Since he used the Museum of Deadly Beasts to appraise beasts, his time was much faster than others. If he wanted to, forget seventy, he could even do an additional hundred in a day.
The only problem was that the evaluation reports were a little troublesome. After all, even if he had to make a copy, he would have to write it himself.
The female apprentice looked at Lin Jin with admiration, her admiration for him growing.
Little did she know that Lin Jin was more than happy for more plates to be recorded in the museum. Only then would he be able to trigger new rewards.
