The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 174
Episode 174 Hard work is my weapon (1)
‘Wilson’s disease, this isn’t easy.’
A day has passed.
The elderly woman with dementia, who had made a bold escape(?) the other day, returned to her hospital room.
While receiving active nursing care from prospective doctor Valentino, who has become quite different from before and has the determination to be a medical professional.
Thanks to this, now only full responsibility remains.
‘Because I promised to take good care of your son.’
Raquiel pressed his temples, remembering the promise he made with Fabio’s mother the day before. I organized my thoughts by doodling on a notepad.
‘First of all, the key to treating Wilson’s disease is that it requires a different approach and concept from the treatments used so far.’
You must not be greedy.
You can’t just rush in and say you’ll get a complete cure.
because.
‘Because there is no concept of cure for Wilson’s disease.’
Wilson’s disease is a disease that was originally caused by a genetic abnormality.
However, a person’s genes cannot be changed. This means that you have to live with the disease for the rest of your life.
‘So, this should be approached with a lifelong management attitude rather than treatment. Just like diabetes.’
Although the pathogenesis and type of disease are completely different, the approach to treatment can be seen as similar to diabetes.
The disease itself cannot be completely eliminated. Therefore, we must acknowledge the disease and live with it for the rest of our lives.
How to enjoy a healthy daily life? Lifelong management through appropriate medication and controlled diet will be key.
‘That’s the biggest problem. Just about one.’
Wrinkles appeared between Rachiel’s eyebrows.
‘Because d-penicillamine, which is used to treat Wilson’s disease, cannot be made or obtained here.’
D-penicillamine is an amino acid obtained from penicillin.
In any case, it is quite good(?) at getting rid of excessively accumulated copper in the body. It means straight bread.
But you can’t get it here.
‘Then pass without regrets.’
Rakiel drew an x on his notepad. What if you can’t find or make a treatment for Wilson’s disease that is used in modern medicine? There is only one answer.
‘You’re saying I have to make it.’
The wrinkles between my eyebrows were so bad that I hit the Grand Canyon cheeks back and forth.
If possible, I wanted to bring both Hwata and Heo Jun together and ask for advice.
Seniors, teachers, ask what you did when you created the decoction.
‘Well, there probably wasn’t any more answers back then. You can try drinking it yourself while referring to methods used in the private sector. Try feeding it to a patient. ‘You probably did research while filling it with your body, right?’
But there are better things to believe in yourself.
It was a decoction preparation skill.
‘Because the skill has a function that automatically identifies the ingredients, efficacy, and side effects of the herbal medicine that I personally prepared.’
So there is no need to hit it with your body. You just have to work hard to make it.
Rakiel’s hands became busy as he walked over the notepad. He designed his own decoction to treat Wilson’s disease.
‘The most essential effect of the decoction we will make from now on is… promoting the excretion of copper. and inhibition of intestinal absorption of copper. Improves liver function and encourages recovery to address liver failure caused by copper accumulation. In addition, side effects from long-term herbal medicine use are minimized.’
All of these elements must be captured. Even one must not be left out. This is especially true because it is a decoction that must be taken for the rest of your life.
‘To satisfy all the conditions, the medicinal ingredients that must be used are probably… rhubarb, yellow lotus, golden ginseng, Salvia Salvia, Achul, and Gyehyeoldeung.’
A conclusion has been reached.
Rachiel called Lord Gardin.
“Lord Gardin? “It feels like it’s been quite a while since we’ve been together?”
“Is that so, Your Highness?”
“Why is that so? “Actually, I see your face every day?”
“That is truly true, Your Majesty.”
“That’s right. “It’s such a strange feeling.”
“….”
“Anyway, let’s make some decoction together for the first time in a while. “Please prepare the ingredients first.”
“I understand, Your Majesty.”
Sir Gardin was now quite busy making herbal medicine. Thanks to this, I was able to trust and entrust the basic care and preparation of the medicinal ingredients to be used in the decoction.
Of course, I had to brew the decoction myself.
‘of course. Because this is the most important thing.’
Even if the same medicine is used, the effectiveness of the medicine changes if the ratio of the medicine changes. Efficacy also varies depending on the order in which the medicine is added.
Even if you change the method of brewing the decoction, the properties of the medicine may change or the effect may vary depending on whether the decoction is made for the first time or again.
So it was.
Differences in the mixing and proportion of medicinal ingredients, order of addition, and method of decoction. In order to meticulously record and compare all the variables, one had to squat down in front of the fire.
‘ah. ‘I want to cook and eat ramen.’
As I squatted in front of the fire and stared at the bubbling herbs, I suddenly thought of ramen.
‘ Boil the water in a pot… Start with the soup… Add the noodles… If you think it’s not enough, add some chopped green onions… When it’s slightly undercooked, turn off the heat and slurp with the kimchi in the pot. When I finish eating the noodles, I roll them up and slurp again. If I drink soju with the leftover soup and watch soccer on TV… I’ll go crazy.’
It reminded me of the time I was in Korea. It was a really good time. But now it is a dream that cannot be returned.
Rachiel quickly wiped away the saliva that was dripping from the corner of her mouth and concentrated on making the decoction.
And finally, I completed my first test decoction.
The response came immediately.
Ding dong!
[The decoction you prepared yourself has been detected.]
[Decoction preparation skill option: Do you want to activate ingredient analysis?]
[YES / NO]
Of course, the answer was yes. Rachiel’s gaze turned to the left. The ingredient analysis option was quickly activated.
[Decoction preparation skill option: Activates ingredient analysis.]
[Scanning]
[3… 2… 1….]
[Scanning is complete.]
Ding dong!
A sound that makes your heart pound. Immediately after that, the information about the test decoction came to mind.
[Test decoction Ver.1]

[Manufacturer: Raquiel Adria Magentano]
“….”
Damn it.
‘After all, it’s not easy to get to one queue.’
Looking at the information on the first version of the test herbal medicine that appeared before her eyes, Rakiel felt a sore taste in her mouth. Actually, this was natural.
The task was to create a decoction to treat Wilson’s disease that no one had ever made, not even Hwata or Heo Jun had tried.
It can’t be easy.
It can’t be comfortable.
So, I was fully prepared for this.
‘It’s just one failure. ‘I don’t know how much longer we’ll have to do this, so don’t get discouraged already.’
Still, I somehow felt like it wasn’t a drug that would kill me. Rachiel immediately prepared the second test decoction.
The mix was slightly different from before. I worked hard. Cooled properly. I poured it out and stared at the solution containing the decoction.
As expected, there was another response.
Ding dong!
Along with a clear and beautiful sound that echoed throughout the world, a message saying that decoction had been detected and a selection window appeared. When I selected Yes, the ingredient analysis started immediately.
‘How about this time?’
He held his pounding heart and looked at the information window.
[Test decoction Ver.2]
[Active ingredients: Chrysophanol, aloe, emodin, miltirone, etc… Sitosterol, beta-sitosterol, blah, blah, blah… Miscellaneous… this and that… etc.]

[Manufacturer: Ra [Kiel Adria Magentano]
“….”
What on earth have I made? In fact, I think I may have been more talented at making poison than medicine.
Looking at the information about the second test potion, Rachiel was filled with a deep sense of skepticism.
In my ears, I could also hear the chatter of the five intestines and six parts.
Ding dong!
[The five intestines and six parts are ‘very’ happy to see the test medicine you created.]
[Heart: Hey, everyone, stop laughing. Manage your facial expressions. It’s not about judging people carelessly based only on results that are immediately apparent. So, in the past, you would put a beautiful meaning on each report card and add it to them.]
[Lungs: Huffuuu… Can you excel?]
[Captain: Excellent?]
[Soy sauce: Beautiful beauty?]
[Stomach. : Good sheep?]
[Kidney: Are you a person?]
[Heart:
ㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ
ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ] [Lungs
: Huh Huh. 갘 ㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ] [camouflage: Don’t pack with
facts ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ ㅋㅋㅋ
]
I sponsored you to eat everything.]
[Currently your current HP: 1800]
…I truly think you are worse than Javilon.
‘You poisonous bastards…’
Did you have to grit your teeth and beat someone like that?
Rachiel had to hold on tightly to the tear glands that burst like Arabian oil fields in the deep mountains.
And I made a promise. Let’s never give up. It’s only been two failures now.
‘failure? Rather good. After going through two processes, we confirmed that if the formulation is changed, the effect is completely different. Because that is the most valuable result. So you just have to keep trying. you can do it. Let’s go.’
It contained the power of positivity.
There is time.
There is also money.
All you have to do is not break your will.
I kept trying with a firm determination. After boiling the herbal medicine, checking the results, and relieving the bitter taste of failure, I squatted down by the fire again and prepared the next ingredients.
One day, two, three days, six days, and ten days passed like that. I kept trying and trying again.
In the meantime, the level of her medicine preparation skill increased several times.
And finally, it was the fifteenth day.
Ding dong!
It was right after I experienced failure again. The moment I felt my bitter taste for the 98th time while looking at the ingredient analysis table.
[The level of the decoction preparation skill increases.]
The level increase message appeared again. It was something I had seen several times in the past few days.
But what follows after that… Was it a little different?
[As the decoction preparation skill reaches level 11, the skill level increases.]
‘What?’
My eyes were wide open. Meanwhile, messages continued to fill my eyes.
[Skill Name: Preparation of Decoction]
[Level: Lv. 11 (Intermediate)]
“….”
A grade indicator that did not exist before has been added behind the level indicator. That wasn’t the only change.
[You have raised your herbal medicine preparation skill to intermediate level through countless experiences and hard work in brewing herbal medicine.] [You
will be granted skill grade increase privileges.]
[New skill options will be opened.]
[Skill-only option ②: Preview of herbal medicine mixture – Before dispensing the herbal medicine, you can roughly preview what efficacy the herbal medicine will have based on the mixture and ratio of the prepared medicinal ingredients.] ‘…
What are you doing?’
The 98th consecutive failure. The recipe for the decoction for treating Wilson’s disease, which had no clue even after combining numerous combinations and ratios. Rakiel, who had been exhausted from the confusion, opened her eyes.
