The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 355
Episode 355 Unexpected Talent (2)
“From my perspective, having been exposed to only the highest level of precious metals and craftsmanship throughout my life, the item gifted to me by your son, Coachman, is absolutely not a fake.”
The crown prince said as if it were obvious.
Because in his eyes, it was really natural.
I just said that.
“Did you say watch? It’s a little unfamiliar, but the essence doesn’t seem to be much different from the bracelet. By that standard, the factors that determine the authenticity of a piece made by a craftsman are the workmanship and finishing condition. That’s why. “The reason you can’t see it as a fake is a fake.”
“What are you doing now…”
The taxi driver was confused. What did the other customer, who had remained silent until now, want to say? No, rather than that….
“Hey, why do you speak informally to the customer like that?”
“hmm?”
“If someone who is not old enough starts acting like that from the first time, I can’t use it, tsk tsk.”
“….”
“Are you going to keep doing that?”
“Oh no… that’s….”
Cook!
Rachiel poked the prince’s side with his elbow. Although the crown prince was embarrassed, he used his own improvisation.
“Ah… I was just saying that to you.”
“To your friend?”
“Yes. “Yeah, whatever.”
“So, I think you just called me coachman.”
“This guy’s nickname is Coachman… so.”
“What about the gift your son gave me?”
“…sorry.”
“No, it’s okay. But tell me more, sir. “This watch isn’t a fake?”
“It certainly is.”
The crown prince said with a serious expression.
“Can I take a closer look at that for a moment?”
“yes? Ah, then here…”
The driver handed me the watch. The crown prince’s eyes narrowed as he looked at it. He was silent for a while. Meanwhile, the taxi ran smoothly in silence.
The crown prince’s mouth finally opened when the taxi reached Baekseok-dong, Ilsan.
“I’m sure. “I felt this when I briefly looked at it earlier, but upon closer inspection, the level of craftsmanship and finish was even greater.”
“What part?”
The crown prince answered the knight’s question eloquently.
“Here first. The finish on the rim of the body case of this watch resembles the crepophyrn style. “It is a technique in which Cremo craftsmen carve metal edges at angles in six directions over a period of 10 days using a special craft called Cremophile… This appears to be a more advanced form of craftsmanship than that.”
“What is that…”
“There’s more. The bottom surface inside this crystal appears to be decorated with mother-of-pearl, and it was implemented in a structure that interlocks with each other rather than simply joining it together. Without even the slightest error. This is also a method that cannot be implemented unless you are a top professional craftsman. And here.”
“….”
“The bracelet structure that wraps around the wrist has a typical asymmetric five-row link structure, and this type of link has the characteristic that even if the finish is slightly off, the entire piece is misaligned, making it extremely uncomfortable to wear. But this is not the case. The interlocking of the links, the structure that supports each other, and even the finishing touches to its implementation are close to perfection. There is another one. “Isn’t there a little lens attached to one part of the crystal here?”
“Oh yes…”
“There is a dilemma when cutting crystal. The difficult problem is how to deal with the refraction of light. This is because the refractive index of light and its unique color vary depending on how various additives are mixed into the glass. However, this implements two refractive indices on one surface, but the junction is not visible and the scattering of light does not interfere with each other. “This is also a great design and a truly great finish.”
“Is that so…?”
“yes. There’s a lot more to say about other parts, but I think you know what I mean in general, so I’ll just give you the conclusion. This is not the highest quality item. However, it is certain that it is an item made using the best skills of top-notch craftsmen.”
“So… are you really saying it’s not a fake?”
“yes. Absolutely not. If this were a fake, all watches in the world would have to be called anything less than a fake. That is my view.”
The crown prince honestly expressed his impressions.
In fact, they were very easy to recognize for him. No, there was no need to even try to find out.
I could see it just by looking at it. It was natural. This was because from the time he was a child, everything around him was never less than the best.
Swaddles, baby bottles, small towels, cloth, carpets on the floor of shoes, curtains, and even jewels embedded in water glasses that you change when you get tired of using small things. All everyday items were more than luxury goods. I lived in close contact with only the best products of the time made by the best craftsmen in the empire.
Discerning?
I never really tried to raise it.
As I live with only the best products, such as wood, the flaws are immediately noticeable when I look at products of lesser quality.
The same was true for the Lulex watch I just saw. At first, I was cautious because I thought it might be unfamiliar because it was from another world. However, upon closer inspection, I found that the luxury goods here were not much different. No, it was rather familiar.
It was interesting the whole time I was looking at it. The unique craftsmanship of the products here, the craftsman’s production intention, and even the philosophy of establishing a balance between price and quality. I felt all of those things one by one.
Thanks to you, it was fun. For a brief moment while evaluating the watch, I even felt like I had returned to the luxurious days of the imperial prince.
“Now here. Please wear it again. “It’s a truly precious luxury item that my son gave me as a gift.”
The crown prince gave up the momentary pleasure he felt and gave the watch back to the driver.
But for some reason.
The driver was speechless. Even though I got my watch back. As soon as I got the signal, I wrapped it around my wrist. There was no reaction other than the occasional sigh.
There was silence in the taxi for a second time.
The silence was barely broken when we arrived at our destination.
“…Well, we’re here.”
Because the fare was calculated in advance through the app, there was no need to exchange anything extra. Rakiel looked at the driver’s expression for a moment and then tried to get out of the taxi. This was because the atmosphere in the taxi had somehow become very awkward after the crown prince suddenly checked the clock earlier.
It was then.
“Guests over there? “It’s the story you told me earlier.”
The taxi driver’s difficult words caught my attention. When I turned around, the driver asked me a question with a worried look on his face.
“Is that story true?”
“….”
The crown prince did not answer. Instead of answering, I simply shrugged my shoulders. It seemed like he was confident that his diagnosis was absolutely correct.
Thanks to you, this person had to answer for me.
“It must be true. “Both the story and the watch.”
“Is that so….”
“Yes. This guy has a really good sense of insight. And this… well, it’s just a guess on my part, so I wonder if I should tell you… but your son.”
“Yes.”
“I think the lie you said when you said you were sorry that the watch I gave you as a gift was a fake and that you would make it real next time was intentional.”
“Are you lying on purpose?”
“yes.”
The driver’s eyes widened. I told him my own guess that came to mind when the crown prince was making a diagnosis earlier.
“If only the driver knew from the beginning that the watch was a really expensive luxury item. “You probably didn’t wear it every day as comfortably as you do now, right?”
“Ah…”
“Maybe your son didn’t want that, so he lied.”
If you think about it, it was an obvious story.
There are many people like that among the elderly. These are the people who, when their son or daughter gives them an expensive gift, never use the items they gave them and just keep them.
It’s a waste.
It’s something my baby bought with his hard-earned money. How can you carry around and use something so precious? If it gets even a little worn out, something big will happen. So, it’s okay to just look at it with your own eyes. But that’s enough.
Isn’t that how parents feel?
The driver probably felt the same way.
“haha? Heh heh heh heh….”
The driver finally guessed the truth and smiled. The corners of his eyes had already become bright. So I sent the driver. Once again, only you and the crown prince were left in front of the one-room building.
“Let’s go in. “The wind is cold.”
“wait for a sec.”
He called out to the crown prince, who was about to enter, craning his neck against the winter wind. He looked back as if asking what he was doing.
asked him.
“What happened earlier?”
“What do you mean?”
The crown prince frowned and replied.
“I only told you what I saw.”
“Then was that really true?”
“of course. “Do you really think that I lied to a coachman with whom I will never meet again?”
“I was able to speak politely to a coachman.”
“That’s right… I couldn’t help it because of the situation and atmosphere. In any case, what I told the coachman was not a lie at all.”
“Then, did the spirit of money help you?”
“Not that either.”
“no?”
“Tsk. Have you forgotten who I am? Did he really think that my noble eyes would not be able to distinguish such an object? “It is truly laughable.”
“….”
Wow, this fucking guy is serious.
I could feel the pride the crown prince had in his own insight. On the other hand, the unexpected talent and potential he may have was also revealed.
The crown prince’s facial expression and eyes as he analyzed and judged the state of the watch’s workmanship earlier. It was all something I saw for the first time. No, it was a completely new and unexpected appearance.
‘It’s just a sickly crown prince who unfortunately died at the beginning of the novel… without any special abilities. An insignificant being who has nothing to boast about other than his natural blood and status. I thought that was it.’
A minor character that is likely to exist in every story. In my heart, this was the person I had always thought of as the crown prince.
But now I see that it wasn’t. This idea was hasty and hasty. It was too easy to evaluate the crown prince only from a cross-sectional perspective. The reality was different. There was a side to him that we didn’t know about.
Actually, it is natural.
Because we are people. Because everyone has different sides. Because it has that much potential. It must have been the same for the crown prince. However, because he suffered from illness and died young, he did not even get a chance to demonstrate his potential.
So maybe the story may be different here.
“Over there.”
My mind was spinning. Brain cells flashed. A new possibility that I had not thought of before came to mind. The crown prince who will be left alone in Korea after this side leaves. There is a way for him to live a new life by protecting 4.4 billion won under the protection of the spirit of money and further unfolding his talents.
