I opened a clinic in the Abyss World

Charlotte glanced at Martha. This little girl had been wandering in the wilderness for a long time. Although she was young, she exuded a wildness.

Without being extremely cunning, one couldn't have staged the scene of collapsing and about to give birth outside the door that night.

"No, I'm a legitimate doctor," Charlotte shook her head.

He just wants to work hard to make money and live a good life.

Even if you're very proactive, you shouldn't get involved with a married woman like that; it's easy to run into trouble.

"How do I compare to Sister Ruth?" Vivian poked her head out and asked curiously.

"That's far from it," Charlotte replied.

Whether it's figure or appearance, the difference is significant.

Ruth possesses the delicate beauty of a young girl, as well as a sufficiently voluptuous and full figure, making her one of the most outstanding among succubi.

In one morning, twenty-two wealthy women came, and each of them ordered at least 10 bottles of moisturizing essence.

"Boss, I seriously doubt whether you attended a 'rich women's pleasure party' last night?" Vivian looked at Charlotte with suspicion.

It's said that the wealthy women's circle in the capital holds a mysterious gathering called the "Rich Women's Pleasure Party," and those invited are all young and strong knights...

  

Charlotte, who was counting the sales figures at the counter, couldn't stop smiling. He didn't know if the rich woman was happy or not, but he was certainly very happy.

This morning's sales were 536420 copper coins, with the moisturizing essence alone contributing 502400 copper coins!

The spending power of wealthy women is terrifying!

Today, Charlotte finally understood why women consistently occupy the top spot on the consumer spending power rankings.

In comparison, men's spending power is indeed only on par with that of dogs.

No, Charlotte, as a seasoned veterinarian, can say with certainty.

Men's spending power is far less than that of pet dogs.

A bag of dog food easily costs over a hundred yuan, and you need some treats every month, right? Then there's some canned food to improve the diet, and some vitamins and probiotics to supplement the body...

See? Women don't care about men that much.

In just one morning, they contributed more than 500,000 copper coins, with an average order value exceeding 20,000 copper coins.

Although these wealthy women won't repurchase within a month, their lavish spending each month will allow him to live a very comfortable life.

Moreover, the Abyss has more than just these twenty-two rich women; she saw over a hundred last night alone.

Those twenty-odd wealthy women bought the moisturizing essence. If it works well for them, they can build a reputation among wealthy women.

If the Abyss is like this, then Calva is even more so.

A commercial city with a population of over one million and extreme wealth, where rich women are everywhere, a bottle of moisturizing essence costing 800 copper coins is definitely affordable for most women.

Charlotte had already decided that he would try to open up the market in Calva and find the next source of revenue growth for the clinic in the coming winter.

dong dong!

There was a knock on the door.

Charlotte waved her hand and collected all the money in front of her.

Kasha stepped forward to open the door, then turned back and said, "Master, Mr. Billy is here."

"Please let him in," Charlotte said quickly.

"Dr. Charlotte." Billy walked in confidently, followed by Jenny.

"Mr. Billy, judging from your spirited appearance, you must have enjoyed a beautiful moon last night," Charlotte teased.

"Uh..." Billy paused, then gave an awkward smile: "The moon over the abyss is indeed somewhat different."

"Heh." Jenny, standing behind him, gave a disdainful smile. Uncle Billy had spent the night on Amman Street last night. Men are all the same.

Billy ignored his niece's sarcasm and looked at Charlotte, saying, "Dr. Charlotte, I'm here today for the first batch of insulin. I've already set up the distribution channels, tentatively in ten cities, and we're just waiting for the insulin to arrive."

"I've already prepared 3000 vials of insulin, and I was just about to send them to you when I had time," Charlotte said.

"No need to deliver it, I can just pick it up today. This is the first payment." Billy took out a large handful of gold coins and placed them on the counter.

There are thirty-three in total.

"Okay, the goods are here: three thousand vials of insulin and three hundred syringes." Charlotte led Billy into the small warehouse of the alchemy room. The three thousand vials of insulin were refined by Vivian during this period. They were custom-made small medicine bottles, sealed in packaging, and the wooden boxes were filled with soft sponge grass. There were ten boxes in total, which could be stored for half a year.

"Since it can be stored for half a year, you should start refining the second batch of insulin. If the promotion goes well, the 300 vials per city may be used up very quickly." Billy put all the boxes into his spatial ring and looked at Charlotte as he spoke.

Charlotte nodded: "No problem. When you want to pick up the goods, send someone to let me know three days in advance. If you don't have enough insulin on hand, I will work overtime to extract more for you."

"Dr. Charlotte, you are truly a savior for us insulin patients. At this price, you must be struggling to even cover your costs, right? I thank you on behalf of every patient who has been saved." Billy excitedly grabbed Charlotte's hand as they came out of the concoction room, praising her with a face full of emotion.

"Don't say that. I was just doing my part." Charlotte held Billy's hand, her eyes also filled with tears.

That's 330,000!

This is a real big client!

This is so heartwarming and touching.

For Charlotte, the biggest cost of insulin right now is the sealed vials, which currently cost 6 copper coins each.

However, the factory has already reached an agreement that once the order quantity reaches 10000, the unit price will drop to 4 copper coins each.

The supply of bovine pancreas has been agreed upon with the slaughterhouse. It will take about three tons of bovine pancreas to extract one thousand vials of insulin, or about 1,500 bovine pancreas. He only needs to pay 1000 copper coins, provided that he brings them back himself.

The carriage is already available; this task can be handed over to Kerry without paying any additional shipping fees.

Therefore, the cost of a bottle of insulin made from bovine pancreas is about 1 copper coin.

As for the cost of ingredients like the knife and wine, when allocated to the cost of each bottle of insulin, it amounts to one copper coin.

The most expensive cost should have been labor.

However, Vivian gave up her share of the insulin extraction commission, which shows she is a considerate and good employee.

So, with tears in his eyes, he earned 300,000 from this first batch of supplies, amidst Billy's constant praise.

This is... so touching.

"Well...we'll head back now. I'll deliver this shipment today." Billy withdrew his hand, preparing to take his leave.

"Wait a minute." Jenny suddenly spoke up, looking at Charlotte and saying, "You... let me see the pink potion you gave that woman yesterday."

"You mean the moisturizing serum?" Charlotte looked at Jenny. This girl had fair skin and a beautiful face. She was in the prime of her youth and didn't seem like the kind of girl who needed skincare.

"Yes, that's the one." Jenny nodded.

Charlotte, of course, wouldn't turn away a customer, and besides, this might be the key to unlocking the Calva Market for him. He took a bottle of moisturizing serum from the counter and handed it to her: "This is the last bottle."

Jenny took the bottle, looked at the pink, semi-gel-like lotion inside, and gently shook the bottle. It was indeed a delicate and pure pink.

When you uncork it, there's a faint floral scent that's not pungent at all; rather, it's quite mild and pleasant.

I tilted the bottle slightly, poured a little onto the back of my left hand, put the bottle down, and then gently spread it with my fingers.

It feels cool and refreshing, and after being applied evenly, it is quickly absorbed by the skin.

Jenny stared at the back of her hand for a long time.

"You're too fair-skinned, and your skin is too good, so the effect might not be that noticeable," Charlotte explained.

Jenny lowered her hand, looked at him, and shook her head, saying, "No, it's obvious. After applying it, my skin is indeed more hydrated and firmer. And it's not a temporary effect; it's a deep change in the skin's condition, and the absorption is excellent."

Charlotte: "..."

He couldn't see any change in Jenny's skin.

Jenny continued, "It's a pity the bottle is so ugly. It's no different from the bottles you use for regular medicine; it looks cheap. We need to change the bottle and the packaging."

Charlotte thought about it and realized that it was indeed a problem. After all, it was a moisturizing essence that cost 800 copper coins a bottle, and the target customer group was wealthy women. It was not very high-class to use an ordinary potion bottle to hold it. Jenny gave him a reliable suggestion.

"How much does your moisturizing essence cost per bottle?" Jenny asked.

"800".

"Three silver coins?"

"copper."

Jenny's hand trembled, and the bottle in her hand fell to the ground.

Fortunately, Charlotte caught it with quick reflexes.

"Such good skincare products, and you're selling them for 800 copper coins a bottle? Are you crazy? How much money are you losing?" Jenny stared, her face full of heartache.

This time, Charlotte was at a loss. Why did this woman look like she had lost a lot of money?

"I think this price is reasonable," Charlotte said earnestly. According to the cost calculation, the cost of this moisturizing essence is no more than thirty copper coins. Selling it for 800 copper coins, how could we lose money?

Jenny took a deep breath to calm herself down, then asked, "You've only just started selling?"

"I guess so." Charlotte nodded. Although the moisturizing essence had been out of print for over a month, less than a hundred bottles had been sold so far. The purchasing power of the male demons on Amman Street was ultimately limited.

"Then let's cooperate. You give me the exclusive rights to operate the Hydrating Essence outside of the Abyss, and I'll be responsible for operations and sales, while you'll be responsible for supplying the products," Jenny said.

"This..." Charlotte hesitated a bit. After all, he had already promised Leo the exclusive rights to Kalva's potion. Would it be inappropriate to cooperate with Jenny again?

Jenny interrupted Charlotte's thoughts: "Your selling price is 800 copper coins, so I will buy from you at that price. The initial order quantity is 10000 bottles, and you will deliver the goods to me in three installments. I can give you a deposit of 1000000 right now."

"Deal. When is the first delivery date?" Charlotte's face was already beaming with smiles.

That's right, Kalva's exclusive sales rights for potions have been given to Leo, but the moisturizing essence should be classified as a beauty product. Do you expect the adventurers of Kalva's Adventurers' Guild to consume the moisturizing essence?

That makes perfect sense.

Jenny, this incredibly wealthy woman, placed an initial order of 10000 bottles. What does that even mean?

A super order of eight million copper coins!

Charlotte was completely numb.

He suddenly felt a pang of envy for Roland.

Jenny dared to place an order for 10000 bottles at once because she had the backing of the Karva Merchant Guild's vast distribution network that spanned major cities across the continent of Aesop.

This is a hidden wealth accumulated by a large family over several generations.

"The first batch is 3000 bottles. I'll have someone pick it up at the end of this month. But I have one more request: your bottles are too ugly. I need to have a new bottle made, and the amount of moisturizing essence needs to be increased by 20%," Jenny continued.

Charlotte thought for a moment, realizing it was normal for a major client to have some demands, and hesitated before saying, "Increasing the quantity by 20% is no problem, but the cost of remaking the bottles is too unpredictable. You need to give me a clear price."

Jenny waved her hand dismissively: "You don't need to worry about the bottles. I'll give you the finished product directly. All you need to do is fill them."

"Okay." Charlotte smiled broadly; he loved working with wealthy women like this who weren't petty.

Boss, you're so generous!

"So, this means I'm cooperating with the Calva Chamber of Commerce?" Charlotte asked.

"No, this is a small business I invested in myself. I only use the Chamber of Commerce's channels occasionally." Jenny shook her head and glanced at Billy, who looked calm. "Right, Uncle?"

Billy said, "You have to talk to your own father about this. He has access to wealthy women in major cities. You can't talk to anyone else but him."

An eight-million-dollar business—that's probably the difference between people...

Charlotte couldn't help but sigh inwardly.

Thanks to the channels of the Calva Chamber of Commerce, Charlotte was not worried that Jenny would not be able to sell the moisturizing essence.

As for how she plans to operate and sell the product after changing the bottle, that's not his concern. He only cares about earning the profits he can. How much Jenny earns is up to her.

He originally wanted to sign a serious contract with Jenny, clearly outlining all the details, since it was a big deal worth eight million.

The other party left him a deposit of one hundred gold coins, told him that someone would deliver the new bottle in a week and he should come back to pick it up in a month, and then ran away.

Charlotte saw the person out and returned to the counter. Looking at the small mountain of gold coins, the glittering golden light was almost blinding, but it still felt somewhat unreal.

Vivian also fell silent.

Although she was born into a noble family, she certainly didn't have a million copper coins to spare.

Kasha didn't quite understand what this amount of money meant, but she knew it was equivalent to a month's worth of potions she could sell.

"Boss, you're so rich!" Martha exclaimed.

"What did you just say?" Charlotte asked, looking at her.

"Huh?" Martha was taken aback, then said, "I mean, you're so rich."

Charlotte suddenly laughed; it was the first time in his life he had ever heard anyone praise him like that.

You know what, it actually feels pretty good!

With a wave of her hand, Charlotte stored all the gold coins into her spatial ring and said with a smile, "Tell me, what do you want to eat tonight? The boss will cook it for you!"

"Boss, you earn nearly two million copper coins a day. That shouldn't be enough to just cook one meal, right?" Vivian said quietly.

Charlotte's smile faltered for a moment, then she thought seriously for a while before waving her hand and saying, "I'll take you to Calva tomorrow afternoon. We'll stay overnight and come back. I'll show you around Calva's night market, the city that never sleeps. Everything's on me."

"Long live the boss!"

"Thank you, Master!"

The clinic was immediately filled with laughter and cheerful conversation.

After a quick lunch, Charlotte and Vivian went to the apothecary workshop.

Given the surge in orders for moisturizing essence, production is insufficient with small furnaces and batches, so we need to switch to large furnaces.

However, the moisturizing essence is an emulsion, which requires a higher level of control over the heat and refining skills. If you are not careful, it will burn and all your efforts will be wasted.

Charlotte failed seven or eight times before finally succeeding in refining it once.

However, Charlotte strictly adhered to the principle of standardized refining. After succeeding once, she established a standardized refining process based on this and made continuous fine adjustments in subsequent refining processes, thereby increasing the success rate.

"This is it, the standardized process." Charlotte made the decision after three successful furnace runs.

The large pot was far more efficient than the small pot, allowing him to refine more than 500 bottles of moisturizing essence in one afternoon.

This alone filled the gap left by the orders placed by wealthy women.

"Kerry, tomorrow, deliver these potions to this address." Charlotte handed Kerry an address list with more than twenty addresses and the number of potions to be delivered indicated.

"Okay." Kerry accepted the booklet.

By the time they returned to the clinic, it was completely dark.

In a great mood, Charlotte went upstairs and prepared a sumptuous dinner, which everyone ate until they were quite full.

"I'm going to class." With Kasha's help, Vivian quickly washed the dishes and cleaned the kitchen with water magic before rushing downstairs and out the door.

"I'm going out for a stroll too." Martha changed out of her cute pink Lolita dress and back into her black cloak, with Kuroko perched on her shoulder, ready to head out.

"Aren't you worried about running into a necromancer again?" Charlotte asked, looking at her.

"It's alright, I've found a relatively safe route, and this time I'll be more careful, so I won't run into any trouble," Martha said confidently. She reached the second-floor window, opened it halfway, glanced left and right, and then lightly leaped out, disappearing into the darkness.

Charlotte didn't forcefully stop her. This girl was used to being wild; keeping her in a place like the Abyss every day would drive her crazy.

"Master, I want to read a book," Kasha said obediently.

Charlotte smiled and waved her hand: "Go ahead, choose any books from the bookshelf."

As Charlotte watched the girl dressed as a maid enter the study, a slight smile appeared on her lips. Kasha had a quiet personality and, under Vivian's tutelage, had learned quite a few characters and enjoyed learning from books.

Charlotte turned and went downstairs. He calculated that his total income for the day was about 1860000 copper coins.

The hydrating essence contributed over 1.5 million.

This original failed potion-making product, after finding a suitable application, has unleashed an astonishing ability to generate revenue.

If Jenny can make this medicine a bestseller through the Calva Chamber of Commerce, it will bring him a steady stream of substantial income in the future.

If he wants to earn more money and acquire more wealth to buy powerful potions, thereby enhancing his strength and developing more potions with broad application prospects, it's much faster than treating patients.

The continent of Aesop is becoming increasingly dangerous. Both the ever-growing beast tides and the wraiths moving towards the city pose a deadly threat to him.

He needs to improve his strength more quickly in order to gain a stronger ability to protect himself.

Compared to other knights who need to train hard and fight to improve themselves, he is much luckier; he can become stronger simply by working hard to earn money.

Charlotte was just about to enter the alchemy room when there was a knock on the door.

Judging from the height of the knock and the manner of the knock, it must be Monte, the vampire with the gold teeth who hasn't come in a long time.

Charlotte opened the door and saw a familiar figure hanging on the door frame, a gold tooth shining brightly under the indoor light.

"Doctor, I've brought her to you," Monte said with a hint of pride. "Mrs. Nancy, my distant cousin."

Charlotte looked outside and saw a magnificent black carriage parked in front of the clinic. The carriage was trimmed with dark gold, adorned with a black bat emblem, and a dark gold glass lamp hung at the front. A lady was gracefully alighting from the carriage, supported by her maid.

The woman was tall and slender with long pink hair, exquisite features, and red eyes like rubies. She wore an elegant black dress and a silver necklace with a large ruby ​​pendant.

Her full bosom and slender waist made her look elegant yet sexy, and her skin was so white it seemed to glow.

Seemingly sensing Charlotte's gaze, she looked up at him, her red eyes widening slightly in surprise, before she smiled gently and said, "Hello, I'm Nancy."
