Run A Medical Clinic In The Abyssal World - Chapter 277：Couple's Shop on the Way
Charlotte is quick and nimble. He easily caught seven of them. He secured their mouths with a rope and put them in his pocket, completing the capture mission.
“Meow.”
Anna leisurely emerged from the cave and called out to Charlotte.
“Good job, Anna.” Charlotte happily rubbed the little one’s head and put her back into the backpack.
Speaking of which, this individual shadow gold rat is not smaller than Anna, and even has good teeth. However, it was scared away by Anna, probably due to its bloodline suppression.
Even Marsha, the black panther, trembles in front of Anna, making Charlotte even more curious about what breed of cat Anna is.
Rarely coming out, Charlotte naturally couldn’t return empty-handed.
After wandering around and catching six wild chickens, five wild rabbits, and a wild boar, after a simple process, Charlotte put them into his spatial ring and returned with a full load.
Returning to the intersection of the Abyss and Calva, it was still around nine in the morning. Charlotte put on his hood in a secluded place and headed towards Calva.
He left the bag with the shadow gold rats in a noodle shop and gave the owner a silver coin, agreeing to come back in three hours to pick it up. Charlotte went straight to the market.
After visiting three herbal medicine shops, Charlotte, as an adventurer, sold the Seven Star Fruits for 355,000 copper coins, just as Harry’s estimation was quite accurate.
This also added a decent amount to Charlotte’s pocket.
Together with the income from the medical clinic and potions during this period, his balance reached 650,000 copper coins again, leaving him with some surplus.
The market was not far from the adventurer’s guild, so Charlotte decided to stop by Linda’s Potion Shop on the way.
Leo and Linda were now his primary distributors, and their business performance directly determined the sales of the large number of potions produced by the potions workshop.
Moreover, Charlotte also had some intention to evaluate.
If Leo and Linda’s management ability was indeed limited, he might take back the distribution rights of Calva and open his potion shop.
Perhaps next year, he could be removed from the list of banished individuals. Then, he could freely travel between the Abyss and Calva with his real identity.
And he could also engage in legitimate business on the surface.
Even in a remote place like the Abyss, he could make tens of thousands of copper coins in daily sales. For a mega-city like Calva, where adventurers congregated, if he couldn’t make a fortune, it would be a problem with his management skills.
Thinking of this, the enormous hall of the adventurer’s guild appeared in his sight. Turning at the street corner, he approached the potion shop right in front of the guild’s gate.
Compared to the desolate scene when he last came, there were now a few customers selecting potions at the counter.
“Boss, you only have three bottles of Golden Vitality Potion left? I planned to get five bottles. Do you have more in stock?”
“Sorry, we currently only have these three bottles of Golden Vitality Potion left on the shelves. The new stock won’t arrive until the day after tomorrow. You know, the Golden Vitality Potion is so effective that it sells quite well.”
“Alright, then I’ll take these three bottles first. Also, give me two sets of Intermediate First Aid Kits.”
“Hey, sir, can you spare me one bottle of Golden Vitality Potion? I took on a mission and I’m not confident without one.”
“Sorry, brother, I can’t give you the potion. I still have two other brothers who need it.”
“Oh, that’s terrible. Boss, can you go and restock today?”
Charlotte stood at the door, listening to Linda and the customers’ conversation.
“Goodbye.” Linda smiled as she saw the customers out and then noticed Charlotte standing at the door, surprised. “Why are you here?”
“I have some business to attend to, so I stopped by to see you,” Charlotte said.
“Come in and have a seat. We’ve been really busy these days.” Linda welcomed Charlotte inside.
Leo was rearranging the shelves, but there were not many potions left. There were only seven or eight sets of Low-level First Aid Kits remaining.
“Charlotte, why are you here?” Leo saw him and was pleasantly surprised, walking up and grabbing Charlotte’s hand. “Look, we’re doing well. The shelves are almost empty!”
“Not bad, not bad.” Charlotte nodded. It hadn’t been many days since Leo brought in the last batch of two hundred thousand worth of goods, and the shelves were already empty, indicating astonishing sales.
“But if your goods are all sold out, why haven’t you restocked yet? Leaving the shelves empty is not a good strategy.”
“I was planning to go to the Abyss this afternoon. I’m usually too busy, and I was worried that Linda couldn’t handle it alone, so I didn’t dare to leave.” Leo explained with a smile.
“He just doesn’t trust me.” Linda smiled happily, full of joy on her face.
Charlotte couldn’t handle this kind of lovey-dovey situation, so he said, “Tell me what goods you need directly. This afternoon, I’ll have someone deliver the potions to you.”
“Alright, I’ll make a list.” Charlotte nodded.
Leo went to the side to make the list, while Linda poured a glass of water for Charlotte.
Several more customers came in one after another, all here to buy Golden Vitality Potions. After hearing Charlotte’s promise, Linda informed them that the potions would arrive in the afternoon. They understood and paid a deposit to reserve three bottles.
“It seems that the reputation of Golden Vitality Potions is good.” Charlotte smiled after the customers left.
“Three days ago, a mid-level knight encountered a Level 4 Brutal Bull Beast in the wilderness. With the help of three bottles of Golden Vitality Potions, he managed to exhaust the beast’s stamina and successfully counter-killed it. This incident caused quite a stir in the adventurers’ circle, and the reputation of Golden Vitality Potions spread instantly.” Linda’s face was also full of smiles.
“This is more effective than any advertisement. The customers who have come these past two days are all here for Golden Vitality Potions.”
“Your potions are effective, with great recovery effects and reasonable prices, so they quickly gained popularity among adventurers,” Leo said while coming over with the purchase list and a big bag of money.
“Not only the Vitality Potions, but the sales of First Aid Kits have also soared these days. For a few hundred copper coins, they can treat minor injuries themselves, which is much more cost-effective than going to a medical clinic.”
“Keep up the good work. I see that your couple’s shop is doing well. Once I develop new potions, I will prioritize supplying them to you.” Charlotte took the purchase list and money pouch and then counted the money in front of them.
Apart from settling the last hundred thousand copper coins payment, there was an additional 263,800 copper coins as purchase funds.
Charlotte put the purchase list into his pocket, stored the money in his spatial ring, and prepared to say goodbye.
“Do you need to refine the potions on the night of the Red Moon? If you can’t obtain the blood of the Magic Beasts, I can get some for you. But the potions should be refined on the same day. If you’re not coming to Calva on the night of the Red Moon, then stay in Calva overnight?” Leo looked at him and asked.
Charlotte knew he was talking about the potions to treat Linda and Kasha, shaking his head, and said, “I can obtain the beast’s blood. On the night of the Red Moon, I have something to do and can’t come to Calva. Besides, haven’t you already mastered the refining method? If I can’t refine it successfully, I will still rely on you.”
“My… my refining level is too low. If you were to refine it, the potion’s effect would be better. The taste and texture would be better too. It would be easier for Linda to drink without suffering.” Leo scratched his head awkwardly.
Charlotte agreed with what he said. His alchemy skills were indeed not high, and there was quite a gap between him and Vivian.
“You should refine one as a backup. On the night of the Red Moon, I will try to refine it myself, but it’s my first time, so the success rate is uncertain. If I succeed, I will bring one for Linda.” Charlotte suggested.
“Thank you.” Linda bowed slightly to express her gratitude.
Charlotte and Leo agreed on the delivery time, then said their goodbyes and left.
When he returned to the clinic, only three to five patients were waiting in line.
“Dr. Charlotte, where were you? So many patients are waiting for Dr. Eileento to treat them alone. It’s so difficult.” A patient with a broken arm looked at Charlotte with a touch of reproach.
“I had something to attend to. Don’t worry, it’ll be your turn soon. Dr. Eileen is especially proficient in treating patients like you with a broken arm.” Charlotte smiled and assured him, entering the clinic with the bag full of shadow gold rats.
“Master, you’re back.” Kasha greeted him and reached out to take the package.
“Let me handle it.” Charlotte didn’t hand over the package to her but took out Anna, who was napping in the cloth bag and handed her to Kasha. He then went into the laboratory with the bag, threw the seven shadow gold rats into the cage, and closed it.
The operating room was closed, and Vivian should be busy with surgery. He took a quick shower and then went to cook.
Charlotte roasted three chickens. One was a reward for Anna’s assistance, one was an appetizer for Marsha, and the remaining one was shared by him, Vivian, and Kasha.
He also prepared a blunt large wild boar trotter, considering Marsha’s appetite. After all, she was recovering from a serious injury, so she needed some food to replenish her strength.
“Smells delicious.” Vivian leaned against the door frame, looking at Charlotte with a slightly helpless expression. “But boss, please respect your profession. You’re a doctor, not an adventurer or hero. Leaving me alone to handle everything, having done over a hundred surgeries in the morning, is exhausting.”
“Sorry, it’s almost the night of the Red Moon. There aren’t many people entering the wilderness these days, so it’s not easy to find someone to do the errands. I could only go myself.” Charlotte turned around, a bit embarrassed, but quickly put on a smile.
“You sit down, lunch will be ready soon. I roasted some chicken and cooked a pig trotter. Later, you can eat two extra bowls of rice.”
Vivian’s throat rolled. Smelling the strong aroma in the air, she couldn’t help but swallow her saliva. After a busy morning, she felt really hungry.
Fortunately, she sent off the last patient and would soon be able to enjoy her lunch, which was a small consolation.
Marsha had just woken up, her biological clock was different from ordinary people, so she woke up precisely at noon. Blackie sat on her shoulder, quite well-behaved.
“Meow~!”
Anna followed the scent and came upstairs, jumping onto her designated seat and looking eagerly at Charlotte.
“Come on, this is your reward.” Charlotte handed Anna a roasted chicken first.
Anna held the roasted chicken with her tender pink claws and then lowered her head to eat. A happy purring sound came from her throat.
“It’s time to eat!”
Charlotte served the stewed pig trotter from the charcoal stove. It filled a large pottery pot, and the rich aroma of meat filled the air, making people’s appetites soar.
