I opened a clinic in the Abyss World

Chapter 197 High-Ranking Knights, They Are Indeed Somewhat Different

"What has my good-for-nothing grandson been doing all this time? Still going back and forth to those back alley pharmacies to treat his mermaid? By the way, is the mermaid dead yet?"

In the luxurious reception room, Lucian, who had suffered quite a bit today, leaned comfortably in the main seat, crossed his legs, and enjoyed the massage from the maid behind him, asking casually.

Below, a portly middle-aged man quickly said, "I haven't paid attention to him for a while, but that mermaid seems to be under some kind of curse. It's been three years, she's probably long dead. Leo is bewitched, letting him suffer some hardship outside isn't such a bad thing."

Lucian opened his eyes, glanced at his son, and said irritably, "Even if he's not very good, he's still much better than you. If it weren't for your incompetence as his father, he would have already broken through to the advanced mage level. I could have arranged a position for him in the Medical Association. Otherwise, who will inherit my position in the future?"

"Yes, yes, yes..." The man nodded repeatedly, not daring to utter a single word of dissent.

Lucian said calmly, "Go find him for me tomorrow and have him come to see me. If he's willing to admit his mistake and work diligently at the Medical Association from now on, I'll return his medical license and restore his allowance."

"Yes, Father." The man nodded in agreement, then turned and quickly left.

……

Linda's Pharmacy.

"Charlotte's idea is really good. The sign has only been up for half a day, and fifteen customers have already come in, and six first-aid kits have been sold." Leo saw an adventurer out and rubbed his hands together excitedly. "Life is getting more and more promising."

"Yes, that patient just said he'd recommend us to his friends. Maybe business will be even better tomorrow." Linda was counting the sales figures, her pretty face beaming with a smile.

Unlike friends who come to support the store and buy a set, these are genuine customers, a group of potential clients who came after leaving the Adventurers' Guild and seeing the sign.

With a turnover of 4800 copper coins, after deducting the cost of 2400 copper coins, they can still make a profit of 2400 copper coins.

The store is currently rent-free, so there's no need to calculate costs.

"Let's try to sell another set of stamina potions tomorrow. These are consumables, and if we can build up our reputation, they might sell even better than first-aid kits," Leo said confidently.

Linda put the money away and smiled, "Then we'll try recommending it to customers tomorrow; maybe we'll actually sell it."

……

Harry's Grocery Store.

Three or five middle-aged men gathered in the store, surrounding Harry behind the counter.

"Boss Harry, do you still have any of that potion? Just be generous and sell a few more bottles to us guys."

"Exactly, exactly. My old woman has learned her lesson. If we can't buy the medicine today, I won't be able to explain myself when we get home."

"When you reach middle age, you can't help but breathe a sigh of relief every time you come out of the shower and see her already asleep. You shouldn't hide this kind of thing that can really make a man regain his virility."

The men were all talking at once, practically ready to drag Harry out of the counter and interrogate him.

"I already said, that's a test drug, it hasn't been officially released yet, and I really don't have any left." Harry looked helplessly at the group of hungry old men.

He never imagined that the dozen or so test vials Charlotte gave him would have such remarkable effects.

So far, there have been zero negative reviews. He just persuaded a batch of customers to buy back this morning, and the repurchase rate is almost 100%.

Based on the feedback from these volunteers, the medicine is remarkably effective and has a certain effect on restoring physical strength, making it a top-quality product among similar products.

  

Based on this evaluation, setting the price at 1000 copper coins per bottle is perfectly fine.

Harry was well aware of these guys' purchasing power.

"When will it be available? I'll pre-order five bottles!"

"I want ten bottles, Mr. Harry. We've known each other for a long time, so you'd better reserve the stock for me."

"I want three bottles..."

……

"Okay, okay, I'll write them all down and let you know as soon as the goods arrive." Harry took out his ledger and wrote down their needs one by one.

After everyone left, Harry checked the ledger. These ten people who had been tested had ordered more than sixty items from him today, showing considerable spending power.

"Dr. Charlotte is a real genius. She just casually made a potion and it became a hot commodity." Harry muttered, stroking his chin.

After a moment's thought, he wrote an order and had the shop assistant deliver it to the Abyss Medical Clinic, also informing Charlotte that the potion was highly effective and could be mass-produced.

……

When Charlotte returned to the clinic, she ran into the young clerk who had brought her the letter.

Upon hearing Harry's request and the order for 100 bottles of aphrodisiac potion, a look of joy appeared on his face. After thinking for a moment, he said, "Okay, go back and tell your boss that I will wholesale these potions to him for 600 copper coins. He can come and pick up the goods himself at noon in three days."

The clerk received the message and left, and Charlotte knocked on the door and entered the clinic.

"Boss, where have you been all afternoon?" Vivian, who was reading a book behind the counter, looked up at him and asked curiously.

"I went to Calva and picked up the beef pancreas I had ordered earlier. There was quite a lot, so I plan to freeze them and store them in the cellar first," Charlotte explained.

"Freezing is too much trouble. Why don't we just extract the insulin and store it directly? Insulin should be easier to preserve, right?" Vivian looked at him, puzzled.

"That makes sense, but there are just too many bovine pancreas. We don't have enough knives and wine to make ethanol." Charlotte shook her head and turned to go into the laboratory.

When Vivian saw Charlotte take out the three-ton bovine pancreas from her spatial ring, she put aside her earlier, less-than-ideal suggestion.

"That must be a lot of cows," she muttered to herself.

"That's a day's supply for the Calva slaughterhouse." Charlotte watched as Vivian froze the beef pancreas before closing the icebox.

Vivian clapped her hands: "Then we won't have to worry about the source of bovine pancreas anymore."

"That's right, these alone will be enough for us for a long time." Charlotte nodded; he didn't want to tarnish Anna's reputation by going to the butcher every day.

"Boss, aren't you planning to promote insulin? From my experience, there must be quite a few people with diabetes, but they haven't been able to get effective treatment." Vivian looked at him. "But now that we've found a method, shouldn't we promote it and help more people?"

"The idea is correct, but the timing isn't right for a large-scale promotion yet. We don't have stable and reliable syringes, we don't have strong publicity, and we haven't even formed a stable initial patient base." Charlotte smiled and shook her head. "These are all problems that need to be solved, and we can't rush it."

"Oh." Vivian nodded, seemingly understanding.

"Want me to teach you how to brew a golden stamina potion tonight?"

"Yes, yes, yes!" Vivian's eyes lit up, and she immediately nodded.

After a quick dinner, Charlotte and Vivian went into the alchemy room.

Kasha, as their capable logistics assistant, weighed and processed the materials according to the recipe given by Charlotte.

The Golden Stamina Potion is highly effective, but it is not actually very difficult to make. It requires few materials and the refining process is easy to control.

Vivian does indeed have a remarkable talent for potion making.

After being taught step by step several times, I started to figure out how to make it myself.

Charlotte didn't interfere too much. The potion-making process can only be achieved through trial and error; you can't teach someone how to do it.

He first refined the 100 bottles of potion that Harry wanted. This potion was simply an stamina potion with the addition of a three-leaf vermilion fruit, which posed no difficulty for him to refine.

As for the wholesale price of 600 copper coins, that was also the wholesale price he was preparing to offer to the public.

The cost of a bottle of potion is only about 20 copper coins, and it sells for 600 copper coins a bottle. If the volume can be increased, it will be a good growth point.

Harry is a cautious man, and the fact that he dared to order 100 bottles without even asking the price shows that the drug must be very popular among the test subjects.

This can be glimpsed from the butcher's reaction.

Soon, one hundred bottles of potion were prepared.

Charlotte specially brewed two extra batches, so the extra twenty bottles could be put on the shelves for sale tomorrow.

"What should I name it? Calling it an aphrodisiac is a bit too tacky." Charlotte looked at the crimson potion in her hand and fell into deep thought.

Vivian, who had just failed to concoct a potion, interjected, "How about calling it 'Sunset Glow'? What a beautiful name! It matches your red potion perfectly, doesn't it?"

"Sunset Glow..." Charlotte pondered for a moment, then her eyes lit up. It really was a good name.

"But boss, what kind of potion is this? Is it newly developed?" Vivian asked curiously. The boss's innovative ability was really too strong, with a new product every day.

"It was a lucky coincidence when we were developing a new stamina potion. It's especially effective for certain useless men," Charlotte nodded with a smile.

"It's that kind of potion..." Vivian looked disgusted, feeling that her beautiful name had been tainted.

As night deepened, Charlotte told the sleepy Vivian and Kasha to go to sleep first, while she went to concoct all the potions that needed to be sold the next day.

He extinguished the fire in the alchemy furnace before going upstairs.

I took off my clothes and went into the bathroom.

Charlotte exchanged for a bottle of strength potion, held the milky white potion, took a deep breath, tilted her head back and drank the potion.

His strength has reached 9900kg. After drinking this potion, it means that his strength will break through to the level of a high-level knight!

The medicine slid down his throat and then ignited his body like a fuse.

A tremendous power surged from every cell in the body, as if a million hammers were forging the body, making it stronger and more robust.

Fifteen minutes later, Charlotte opened her eyes.

An unprecedented sense of power rose from the bottom of his heart. He even felt that he could knock down a giant dragon with a single punch.

"A high-ranking knight is indeed different..." Charlotte looked down at her hands and murmured to herself.
