3249 Clever Girl (3)

Look at this workshop. It says Yangs Workshop. In other words, this inscription masters surname is Yang. I know Master Yang. Hes at Level 7 and his disciples are Levels 4 and 5.

Master Yang has his own apprentices. Hes doing well because hes only responsible for producing blueprints. His apprentices do the carving and coloring.

Look over here

Auntie Qing led Feng Wu to an open area at the back. There were domed cubicles here with no ceilings, just like modern office cubicles.

Auntie Qing pointed at them and said, Most of these inscription masters are at Level 5. They are unwilling to be apprentices, or they cant find a teacher whos willing to teach them. Theyll accept orders here in their own names.

But they work very slowly. It can take them at least a month to produce a few low-level inscription weapons.

Feng Wu said, Thats not so efficient

Auntie Qing said, Their pay isnt high either. It starts at 30 per 1,000 words.

Feng Wu asked, 30 What?

Auntie Qing: 30 essence crystals for 1,000 words.

Feng Wu said, The essence crystals are quite easy to earn.

No, theyre not. Auntie Qing was amused by Feng Wu. Theyre so inefficient that theyre lucky if they can make enough to survive. As long as they can make breakthroughs and inscribe higher-level inscriptions, however, their income will skyrocket.

Feng Wu asked, Really?

Feng Wu saw that they looked like they were inscribing on grains of rice. Every inscription was extremely difficult, and no mistakes were allowed.

This was how inscriptions worked. If there was even the slightest mistake, the inscriber would have to start over.

Auntie Qing told Feng Wu, Do you remember Master Yang just now? He can get 300 essence crystals for every 1,000 words. However, he has two apprentices under him, so he doesnt really have much left.

Lets go. Ill introduce you to the person in charge of Imperial College, Master w.a.n.g Zhiheng. He can get 1,000 essence crystals per 1,000 words.

Feng Wu asked, Is he a Level 8 inscription master?

Auntie Qing said, Yes, hes a Level 8 inscription master. Master Duanmu across the hall is Master w.a.n.gs senior brother, and he can get this much.

Auntie Qing gestured at Feng Wu as she spoke.

Feng Wu hissed. That high?

Auntie Qing said, Of course. Master Duanmu is really capable. Hes efficient and does good work. Of course that was in the past.

Feng Wu asked, What about now?

Right now Auntie Qing was about to say something, when they arrived at w.a.n.g Zhihengs workshop. Auntie Qing stopped talking right away and told Feng Wu, Dont mention Master Duanmu in front of him, or there will be consequences.

Feng Wu nodded.

Speaking of which, Master w.a.n.g has a buddy named Yang Zhihu in the fortress. Have you met him? Auntie Qing asked. Theyre very close and have become sworn brothers. If you know Yang Zhihu, Master w.a.n.g will be much closer to you.

Feng Wus eyes lit up. Yang Zhihu? Hes my teacher.

Auntie Qing looked at Feng Wu in surprise. Really?

Feng Wu said, Its true. Im from the colonels quarters.

Auntie Qing sized up Feng Wu from head to toe. I didnt know youre so good at cultivation.

Feng Wu chuckled.

Auntie Qing took Feng Wu to w.a.n.g Zhihengs workshop and introduced her to the master, telling him that Feng Wu was Yang Zhihus student.

As expected, Master w.a.n.g looked at Feng Wu a lot more kindly.
