Run A Medical Clinic In The Abyssal World - Chapter 278：Isn't this too pink and tender?

Have had lunch, and Charlotte, Vivian, and Marsha went to the alchemy workshop.

They handed Leo’s order to Marsha, instructing her to load the potions from the list onto the carriage, and reminded Klee to deliver the goods to Calva and bring back a cart of frozen beef pancreas on the way.

Leo’s order for 250,000 copper coins has emptied almost half of the warehouse.

Linda’s potion shop has been on the right track, proving the correctness of Charlotte’s decision to establish the alchemy workshop.

Otherwise, with such a large quantity of orders, he and Vivian would have been crying while distilling in the small alchemy room.

At the same time, they started considering expanding their distribution network. Currently, the alchemy workshop has entered the mass production stage, and the output is gradually increasing.

Due to limited shipping capacity, some of the production capacity has been wasted, which is not cost-effective.

Expanding the number of distributors and increasing the delivery capacity would be of great significance to the alchemy workshop.

The factory started operating, but Charlotte, holding a headlamp, went into the ventilation crack behind the workshop.

As soon as he entered the three-person-high opening, a strong suction force almost sucked Charlotte in. The wind behind him blew loudly as if there was a high-power vacuum cleaner running in the pitch-black cave.

The chimney of the alchemy workshop extends about five to six meters into the cave entrance, and the coal smoke and a small amount of waste gas from the potions are directly discharged into it, instantly being sucked away. You can’t smell anything at the entrance of the cave.

Fortunately, no one checks environmental protection here.

Charlotte thought to himself, turned on the headlamp, and walked into the cave.

Upon entering the cave, it was initially wide, more than two meters, and the ground was quite flat, with traces of human activity everywhere. People must often come here to play out of curiosity.

But after walking about five hundred meters, the passage suddenly narrowed, becoming a narrow gap of just over half a meter wide. The ground was no longer flat, but two almost vertical stone walls that continued to narrow downwards.

Most adventurers stopped there.

But for Charlotte, who could stroll in the meteorite maelstrom, this level of terrain was as easy as pie.

Walking forward for about three hundred meters, the sound of waves hitting the rocks faintly came from the front, but most of it was covered by the wind in his ears.

Continuing forward, after about five hundred meters, a glimmer of light appeared at the end of the passage, and the walls began to feel damp.

Charlotte increased his pace and quickly arrived at the entrance of the cave.

There was a small platform of seven or eight square meters at the entrance of the cave, beyond which was an endless blue sea. The sea breeze blew in, and white seagulls soared in the sky. The brilliant sunlight fell on the sea, shimmering, causing Charlotte, who had just come out of the dark passage, to squint his eyes.

Indeed, this cave was connected to the open sea, and it was not high from the sea surface, only about four or five meters. The seawater hitting the rocks splashed onto his clothes, dampening them slightly.

This was the first time Charlotte had seen the sea since coming to this world. The sunlight on his face was also a scarce resource in the Abyss.

After all, what the Abyss lacked the most was not food but the uplifting sunlight.

This place was truly a paradise in the Abyss.

Charlotte reached out and pinched the rock next to him. The rock, corroded by the moist sea breeze, was very fragile and crumbled under his pinch.

This meant that as long as the underground was reinforced, it would be easy to dig out a large platform on the cliff and even build buildings on it.

Didn’t Diana ask him how to develop this block?

A seaside house with direct sunlight would surely be an attractive project.

Standing there, Charlotte closed his eyes, feeling the gentle sea breeze blowing in his ears, accompanied by the sound of waves crashing against the cliffs, and the intermittent cries of seagulls. His mind quickly became calm.

Leaving this pure land for himself, wouldn’t it be great? Why bother building a bunch of stone houses on this cliff?

When he opened his eyes again, Charlotte had decided in his heart.

This would be a good location for experimenting on the Red Moon. On the night of the Red Moon, the entrance to the Abyss would be sealed, and no one would care about this place. He could bring the devouring gold rats here and let them enter a demonized state.

So for a while, he wouldn’t suggest to Diana to develop this place, otherwise, he wouldn’t find a better place for the experiment.

After enjoying the sea breeze and the sun for another hour, Charlotte got up and returned.

There were hardly any signs of people reaching this point along the way. After all, such a narrow crevice, if one got stuck by accident, there would be no rescue from the front or back, which would result in being stuck there.

On the way, he saw two sets of trapped skeletons, which had probably deterred many adventurers.

Back at the exit, Charlotte stood there for a while and decided to build a fence around the entrance when he had the time.

According to the land division, the entrance of the cave belonged to the alchemy workshop, and he had the right to dispose of it.

One was to prevent people from accidentally entering and risking danger. The other was to prevent people from entering and causing a blockage in the passage.

Klee had already returned from Calva, pulling a cart of frozen beef pancreas. Charlotte kept the beef pancreas in a well-insulated space ring, then drove out for a trip.

Tova Street, in the alley.

The tailor shop was bustling with people.

There were young and beautiful girls, as well as young mothers with children. When many people came out, they held small cloth bags in their hands, with smiles on their faces, satisfied.

Charlotte waited at the mouth of the alley for a while until the number of people decreased before entering the tailor shop.

“Doctor, why are you here?” Ivan, who was arranging the shelves, looked up and was pleasantly surprised.

“It’s been a while since I last came. I came to take a look and buy some clothes for the employees in the shop.” Charlotte smiled and said, “It seems that your transition to ready-to-wear clothing has been quite successful. You have many customers.”

Almost all of the five or six shelves were almost empty, with only a few pieces of clothing left, mostly in sizes that were not easy to sell, either too small or too big.

Ivan couldn’t hide his delight and nodded, “To be honest, there have been quite a few customers these days. I have been working late at night to make the clothes and sometimes can’t keep up with the delivery schedule. I’m planning to hire a salesperson to take care of the customers so that I can focus on making the clothes.”

“That’s great. Now you don’t have to worry about business anymore.” Charlotte nodded, happy for Ivan’s success.

“The customers find it novel that they don’t need measurements. They can try on the clothes directly when they come and buy only if they fit. It’s a new way of buying clothes.”

Ivan smiled and said, “Moreover, the Lolita dresses and maid outfits that you designed are the best-selling ones. I’ve recorded it. So far, we’ve sold 58 Lolita dresses and 32 maid outfits. The price is 300 copper coins each. According to our previous agreement of a 10% profit share, I should pay you 2,700 copper coins.”

As Ivan spoke, he handed over twenty-seven silver coins.

“An unexpected income.” Charlotte gladly accepted it. This was the first design fee he received.

To sell hundreds of pieces of clothing in a short period, should be quite a new experience for Ivan.

“The price of 300 copper coins is quite low, isn’t it?” Charlotte couldn’t help but ask.

“Not every piece is priced at 300 copper coins. Dresses with more fabric may have slightly higher prices, but none of them exceed 500 copper coins. Excluding labor costs, the profit margin is about 30%.” Ivan explained.

The fabrics of Ivan’s clothes were good, and the workmanship was excellent. If they were custom-made, they would cost at least a thousand copper coins.

A price of less than five hundred copper coins was simply suppressing other businesses.

No wonder he could attract so many customers shortly after the transition.

Now he was facing the problem of insufficient production capacity, even if Ivan recruited another salesperson and he worked hard to make clothes, the increase in production capacity would be limited.

After all, making clothes was not like brewing potions. It was impossible to make a hundred pieces at once. Each piece had to be handled by a master tailor and sewn carefully.

“I have a suggestion for you. Recruiting experienced master tailors may cover your existing profit margin, or even cause losses. You can try to establish an assembly line. After the sizing process is fixed, divide the clothing production process into different steps, with each worker completing a specific step, thereby quickly completing the production of a piece of clothing and increasing the output.” Charlotte proposed.

“Assembly line?” Ivan looked puzzled.

“When you have time, you can come to my alchemy workshop to visit. Once you see it, you will understand.” Charlotte didn’t try to explain the concept of an assembly line.

“Okay, I’ll come after I finish the current orders.” Ivan nodded.

Charlotte picked two sets of clothing for Marsha and a pink Lolita dress for Marsha.

Marsha was quite wild, so he chose a girly pink for her.

He left Marsha and Ivan’s positions in the alchemy workshop and returned to the workshop.

In the workshop, Charlotte discussed with Vivian optimizing some potion production processes and made an inventory of the medicinal materials in the warehouse, noting the materials that needed to be replenished.

“How are you doing living here?” Charlotte walked up to Nora, who was packaging the potions and asked.

“Well, apart from there being no one nearby, everything else is fine. Big Brother Klee brings fresh vegetables back every morning, so it’s convenient for us to cook our meals.” Nora smiled and nodded, looking grateful as she looked at Charlotte.

“The workshop is particularly safe, and we sleep soundly.”

Charlotte nodded, “That’s good. If you encounter any difficulties, feel free to tell me. I will try my best to help you solve them.”

“Okay, thank you.” Nora thanked Charlotte quickly.

As the sky grew dark, Charlotte announced the end of work. Klee sent the three of them back to the clinic.

“These are your new clothes.” Upon entering the clinic, Charlotte took out the three new sets of clothes and handed them to Marsha.

“Aren’t they too pink?” Marsha’s gaze fell on the pink Lolita dress, and her eyebrows furrowed. It didn’t match her tough girl image.
