I opened a clinic in the Abyss World
Chapter 220 A Well-Known Husband-and-Wife Shop
Charlotte was quick and agile, easily catching seven of them. She tied their mouths with ropes, put them in her pocket, and the capture mission was complete.
"Meow."
Anna slowly walked out of the cave and called out to Charlotte.
"Good job, Anna." Charlotte happily ruffled the little guy's hair and stuffed it back into her backpack.
To be honest, this Gold-Eating Rat is no smaller than Anna, and even has a good set of teeth, but it was so frightened by Anna that it ran away with its head in its hands. This must be the so-called bloodline suppression.
Even Martha, that black male cat, trembles in fear in front of Anna, making Charlotte even more curious about what breed Anna is.
Since Charlotte had come all this way, she certainly wasn't going to go back empty-handed.
After wandering around the area, he caught six pheasants, five rabbits, and a wild boar. He quickly processed them, stuffed them into his spatial ring, and then returned home with his spoils.
Back at the crossroads between the Abyss and Calva, it was only around nine o'clock. Charlotte put on her hood in a secluded spot and headed towards Calva.
Charlotte left the cloth bag containing the gold-eating rat at a noodle shop, gave the owner a silver coin, and agreed to pick it up in three hours. Then she headed straight for the market.
After visiting three herbal medicine shops, Charlotte, posing as an adventurer, sold the Seven Star Fruit for 355000 copper coins.
Harry's valuation was quite accurate.
This also made Charlotte's pockets much fuller.
With the income from the clinic and medicine during this period, his balance once again reached 650,000 copper coins, leaving him with a small surplus.
The market wasn't far from the Adventurers' Guild, so Charlotte decided to stop by Linda's apothecary on the way.
Leo and Linda are now his primary distributors, and the success or failure of their business directly determines whether the massive quantities of medicines produced by the apothecary will go unsold.
Moreover, Charlotte's words also carried a hint of observation.
If Leo and Linda's business acumen is indeed limited, he might take back Kalva's distribution rights and open his own pharmacy.
Perhaps next year he can be removed from the exile list, so he can travel between the Abyss and Kalva under his real identity and go out into the open to do some legitimate business.
He could sell tens of thousands of copper coins a day even in a remote and impoverished place like the Abyss. If he couldn't sell like hotcakes in a mega-city like Kalva, where adventurers gather, then it must be a management problem.
As he was thinking, the Adventurers' Guild's enormous hall came into view, and just around the corner was the potion shop directly opposite the guild's entrance.
Compared to the desolate scene of the last visit when the store was almost empty, there were a few customers choosing medicines at the counter today.
"Boss lady, you only have three bottles of Golden Stamina Potion left? I'm planning to buy five. Do you have any more?"
"I'm sorry, there are only three bottles of Golden Stamina Potion left on the shelf. The earliest we can get new stock is the day after tomorrow. As you know, the Golden Stamina Potion is incredibly effective, so it's very popular."
"Okay, I'll take these three bottles first, and also get me two intermediate first aid kits."
"Hi, sir, could I have one of the Golden Stamina Potions? I've taken on a mission, and I don't feel confident without one."
"Sorry, brother, I can't give you this potion. I have two other brothers who don't get any."
"Oh, this is terrible, boss lady, can you go and get the goods today?"
Charlotte stood at the door and overheard Linda's conversation with the customers.
"Take care," Linda said with a smile as she saw the customer to the door. Only then did she notice Charlotte standing at the door, and exclaimed in surprise, "What brings you here?"
"I was here to take care of some business and just stopped by to drop by," Charlotte said.
"Come in and have a seat, I've been so busy these past few days," Linda said, welcoming Charlotte inside.
Leo was organizing the shelves, but there weren't many medicines left; there were only seven or eight basic first-aid kits.
"Charlotte, what brings you here?" Leo, seeing him, rushed forward and grabbed Charlotte's hand excitedly, saying, "Look, we've got it! The shelves are all sold out!"
"Not bad, not bad." Charlotte nodded. Leo had just ordered 200,000 worth of goods, and the shelves were sold out in just a few days, showing that sales during this period were indeed amazing. "But, since your goods are all sold out, why haven't you ordered more? Scarcity marketing isn't a good strategy."
"I was planning to go to the Abyss this afternoon. I'm usually too busy, and I was worried that Linda wouldn't be able to handle it all by herself, so I haven't dared to leave," Leo explained with a smile.
"He just can't let go of me," Linda said with a beaming smile, her face full of happiness.
Charlotte couldn't stand this kind of public display of affection, and said, "Just tell me what you need to order, and I'll have someone deliver the potions to you this afternoon."
"I still owe you 100,000 copper coins from last time, so I need to settle that with you first. I have about 250,000 copper coins left, and I want to use them all to buy more goods, mainly gold stamina potions and intermediate first aid kits, and also some low-level first aid kits," Leo said.
"Okay, just make a purchase order." Charlotte nodded.
Leo went to the side to make a list, while Linda poured Charlotte a glass of water.
Several more customers came in, all looking for the Golden Stamina Potion. After receiving Charlotte's promise, Linda told them that the product would arrive in the afternoon, which the customers understood, and they directly paid a deposit to reserve three bottles.
"It seems the Golden Stamina Potion is quite well-known," Charlotte said with a smile after the customer left.
"Three days ago, a mid-level knight encountered a level four bull beast in the wilderness. Using three bottles of Golden Stamina Potions, he managed to exhaust the beast's stamina and successfully kill it. This caused quite a stir in the adventurer community, instantly making the Golden Stamina Potions famous." Linda's face was full of smiles. "That's more effective than any advertising. The customers who have come these past two days are all here specifically for the Golden Stamina Potions."
"It's all thanks to your potions. They're effective, have good recovery results, and are reasonably priced, so they quickly gained a reputation among adventurers." Leo came over with a purchase order and a large bag of money. "Not only are stamina potions selling well, but first aid kits have also seen a surge in sales these past two days. You can treat minor injuries yourself for just a few hundred copper coins, which is much more cost-effective than going to the clinic."
"Keep up the good work. I think your family business is going to succeed. If you develop any new drugs in the future, I'll give you priority in supplying them." Charlotte took the purchase order and money bag and counted the money in front of her.
In addition to making up for the previous payment of 100,000, there is also a payment of 263800 copper coins for new purchases.
Charlotte shoved the purchase order onto her person, put the money into her spatial ring, and prepared to leave.
"Are you going to brew potions for the Red Moon Night this time? If you can't get the blood of a demonized beast, I can get you some, but the potions have to be brewed on the same day. Why don't you come and stay in Calva for the night on the Red Moon Night?" Leo said, looking at him.
Charlotte knew he was referring to the potion for treating Linda and Kasha, and shook her head, saying, "I can get beast blood, but I have something to do on the night of the Red Moon and can't come to Kalva. Besides, haven't you already mastered the refining method? If I can't refine it, I'll have to rely on you."
"I... my refining skills are too low. If you were to refine it, the medicinal effect would definitely be better, and the taste and texture would also be better. Linda would suffer less when she drinks it." Leo scratched his head awkwardly.
Charlotte agreed with him; his alchemy skills were indeed not high, and there was a significant gap between him and Vivian.
"You should also make a batch as a backup. I will try to make it that night, but since it's my first time, the success rate is unknown. If it succeeds, I will send a batch to Linda."
"Thank you," Linda said, bowing slightly in gratitude.
Charlotte and Leo agreed on a delivery time, then Charlotte said goodbye and left.
When I returned to the clinic, there were only three or five customers left waiting in line in front of the door.
"Dr. Charlotte, where have you been? So many patients are waiting for Dr. Eileen to treat them all by herself. It's so hard to wait," a patient with a missing arm said to Charlotte with a hint of resentment.
"I had to go out today, don't worry, it'll be your turn soon. Dr. Eileen is especially good at treating patients like you who have lost an arm," Charlotte said with a smile, entering the room carrying a bulging cloth bag.
"Master, you're back." Kasha stepped forward, ready to take the package from his hands.
"I'll do it." Charlotte didn't hand the package to her, but instead took Anna, who was sleeping soundly in the cloth bag, out and handed her to Kasha. She then carried the bag into the laboratory, threw the seven gold-eating rats into the cage, and closed it.
The operating room was closed, and Vivian was probably busy performing surgery, so he simply went upstairs, took a quick shower, and then went to cook.
Charlotte roasted three chickens: one for Anna as a reward for her hard work that day, one for Martha as an appetizer, and the remaining one for him, Vivian, and Kasha to share.
In addition, he blunted a large wild boar's hoof, taking into account Martha's appetite, since the girl had just recovered from serious injuries and needed to eat something to replenish her strength.
"It smells so good." Vivian leaned against the door frame, looking at Charlotte with a lifeless expression. "But boss, could you please respect your profession in the future? You're a doctor, not some adventurer or hero. Leaving me alone to perform over a hundred surgeries in one morning is really going to ruin me."
"Sorry, it's almost the night of the Red Moon. Not many people are going into the wilderness these days, so it's hard to find someone to do things for me. I'll have to make the trip myself." Charlotte turned around somewhat awkwardly, but immediately put on a smile: "Please sit down first. Lunch will be ready soon. I roasted pheasant and stewed pig's trotters. Have a couple more bowls of rice later."
Vivian's throat bobbed, and she swallowed hard, unable to resist the rich aroma of meat in the air. After a busy morning, she felt like she was starving. Fortunately, she could have lunch after seeing off the last patient, which was a small consolation.
Martha had just woken up. Her unusual biological clock made her wake up very precisely at noon, just in time for lunch. Hei Zi sat obediently on her shoulder.
"Meow~!"
Anna followed the scent upstairs, jumped onto its special seat, and gazed longingly at Charlotte.
"Here you go, this is your reward." Charlotte handed Anna a roast chicken first.
Anna stretched out a pink, chubby paw and pressed it down on the roast chicken, then lowered her head and began to eat, making cheerful slurping sounds in her throat.
"Dinner's ready!"
Charlotte ladled out the braised pig's trotters from the wood-fired stove into a large, flat-bottomed earthenware pot. The rich aroma of the meat wafted out, making one's mouth water.
"Meow."
Anna slowly walked out of the cave and called out to Charlotte.
"Good job, Anna." Charlotte happily ruffled the little guy's hair and stuffed it back into her backpack.
To be honest, this Gold-Eating Rat is no smaller than Anna, and even has a good set of teeth, but it was so frightened by Anna that it ran away with its head in its hands. This must be the so-called bloodline suppression.
