Master Of None

Chapter 1051: 1051. Crowded Guild

Chaos. That was all Remey found when she got to the alchemy guild building. Before she had even gotten to the locked doors she had to push many alchemists, herbalists, and potion sellers out of the way. They had more or less barricaded themselves against the door in an effort to be the first to arrive and claim a shop.

Since Remey had the keys she was able to force her way to the front and enter. It came with a few pushes to keep others out but other than that things werenʼt as bad as she assumed. ”So, any reason why we have an entire mob outside?” She looked at the staff members that had been hired who had stopped as soon as the door had opened and shut.

”Guild master, welcome back. We have been waiting for you to begin the examinations.” There were many that didnʼt recognize Remey because Trish and the old master alchemist had hired them while she was away.

”First, Itʼs Remey. Second, I am one of the alchemists in charge, not a sole guild master. Third, it looks like they did well to hire more people, please go and get that old man and Trish before I have to drag them down here.” Her orders were immediately followed since the staff was sure that Remey would punch them in to next week if they didnʼt listen.

This mostly came from the fact that she was wearing her knuckles. They made her more intimidating and it would keep rowdy test takers in line.

”You walk in and start yelling for me even though Iʼm in the backroom going over storage. How rude. I thought you knew better than this. Little Remey thinks sheʼs outgrown being polite to her elders.” The old master alchemist walked out from being the counter shaking his head. However, he appeared happier than he was letting on.

”You wonʼt even guess what I brought-” The old master alchemist held a hand up and walked to the back door while gesturing for Remey.

”Look out that door and tell me, will that work as an underwater level for the farming of saltwater herbs? I had the dwarves build it so that the sand and soils can be kept separate to avoid contamination.

I also know that we should have some merfolk herbalists and alchemists soon, right?” There was pride in the old master alchemistʼs voice while he showed off the pools of saltwater that were made bear the building. The set up was perfect for the herbalists t easily bring in the herbs while also being able to easily move to other green houses and herb plots.

”I donʼt say it often. But, you really are the best.” Remey was blown away by the expanded herb gardens.

The old master alchemist ruffled her hair and walked back toward the main hall, ”Welcome back. Weʼve been waiting.” Trish had just come down the stairs in time to see the pair walking back to the front hall.

”I assume you just showed off the herb garden design? If she blinks the herbalists might change their minds again. I donʼt know how we will afford all of this.” The cost of everything had been eating away at Trish greatly.

”Just gather up potion packages. There are enough merchants out there to make a nice profit with just an introductory package that showcases the quality and new potions from our guild.” Remey shrugged as she said it until she saw Trish shaking her head and the old master alchemists smile.

”You two might secretly be related. I swear.” Trish paused and motioned for a few staff members to gather something. ”We have them already prepared. How do you want to go against the mob outside?” This was more customers at once than any of them had dealt with before. That being the case, Trish wanted a solid plan.

”Simple. We allow five people in at once. We have guards around for a reason. Itʼs not like they were hired just to stand pretty. They can be in charge of the doors as well. Once we have a full room of those that want to be tested in either alchemy or herb growing, we start the test.

Those that want to sell our potions and herbs can apply and get screened. I donʼt want to see our potions being sold for absurd prices. Those that pass our review can get a potion package to sample potions for a fee.” Remey was sure this would work. It just made them work for longer because the process could be slow.

”I will take the first test of alchemists then. I want to see how these applicants hold up. But I also want to see how many different ways a simple healing and mana potion can be created. I might have some new ideas.” Trish was excited to be able to build new potion formulas if she saw something interesting.

Being able to test the applicants was a benefit that not many would realize until they had done so.

”That leaves me with the main hall here. I donʼt feel like testing others just yet. I feel like the rules will be much harder to enforce than expected with how energetic all of them seem.” A glance to the door was enough for the old master alchemist to remember the noisy crowd.

”Donʼt worry about the rules. We have those booklets made already, right? I will be going outside to hand those out. No one will try anything with me around.” There was an evil smile on Remeyʼs face. People didnʼt need to know she wouldnʼt actually use violence against them if they didnʼt follow the rules while here in the alchemy guild.

”Letʼs get this done!” The staff became a flurry of movement as they prepared to bring in the first people. It was earlier than planned but it was a perfect time.
