The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine - Chapter 61
The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 61
Episode 61 Money worry, non happy (3)
“Minotaur Hwangcheongsimwon.”
“….”
“how is it? It’s good?”
“….”
It’s not good at all. Damian closed his mouth and thought.
‘Aren’t you crazy?’
I don’t know what Minotaur Hwangcheongsimwon is. Maybe it could be some amazing, grandiose drug. But at the same time, I also had this thought.
“So you’re saying you’re going to turn the Minotaur’s gallstones into medicine and feed it to people?”
“uh.”
The crown prince nodded as if it was obvious. I asked him repeatedly.
“Will people actually eat that?”
“of course.”
Confidence oozed from Rakiel’s nod.
“eat. must.”
“Why?”
“Because you’ll think it’s rare.”
“….”
“Because that’s how human psychology is.”
It’s true. How many similar examples have you seen in Korea? They say silkworm cocoons are good for your health. I heard Woong Dam is that awesome. They say that eating dandelions lowers your blood pressure. And so on and so forth.
Even today, a variety of unidentified medicinal herbs and things that are not even known as medicinal herbs are sold countless times through word of mouth that they are ‘good for your health.’ That place was Korea.
No, in fact, it was a similar phenomenon no matter where you were in the world. Because that’s where human psychology lies. It won’t be any different here.
“Furthermore, Woohwangcheongsimwon, which is the base of Minotaur Hwangcheongsimwon, has proven medicinal efficacy from the beginning.”
“The efficacy of the medicine… has been proven?”
“uh.”
Rachiel nodded.
What he said was true.
Anyone in Korea has heard of Woohwang Cheongsimwon at least once. A pill that many people call ‘Woohwangcheongsim’ pill. In fact, Woohwang Cheongsim ‘Hwan’ is a name used in China. The official name used in Korea is Woohwang Cheongsim ‘Won’.
‘Because that is definitely our name used at Donguibogam.’
In any case, Woohwang Cheongsimwon is an excellent rescue medicine that treats and manages the early symptoms of brain disease, heart disease accompanied by heart palpitations, high blood pressure, acute and chronic seizures, mental anxiety, nervous diseases, and dysautonomia.
‘A powerful tranquilizer with similar effects to benzodiazepine drugs.’
In modern times, it’s just treated as old-fashioned, but what about in the past? It was the hottest wannabe item sought after by Chinese Qing Dynasty officials. This was because the medicinal efficacy of Joseon-produced Woohwang Cheongsimwon was recognized by everyone as excellent.
‘Among them, the key medicinal ingredient, cow hwang, especially gallstones from Jeju Island cows, was said to have amazing effects. In fact, when beef sulfur was administered to experimental mice for 4 to 8 days, it was proven to have a sedative effect to prevent convulsions. It was also proven to have a blood pressure lowering effect when administered to rats showing symptoms of high blood pressure.’
In addition, taurine contained in beef sulfate also has a blood pressure lowering effect. It is even effective in protecting and improving liver function.
“Anyway, I’m going to use the Minotaur gallstone, which is more powerful than that of Wu Huang. “That will be enough for both medicinal efficacy and symbolism.”
“Are you saying it’s enough?”
“It means it becomes marketable.”
Probably so.
“The mighty power of the Minotaur to you too! “How about a catchphrase like this?”
“….”
“It’s going to sell anyway, hmm.”
“But Your Majesty the Crown Prince.”
“hmm?”
“Woohwang Cheongsimwon and its medicinal properties… these are things I have never heard of.”
“okay?”
“yes.”
Damian nodded.
“This is my first time hearing it. “So it’s strange.”
“What do you think is strange?”
“If it’s a great drug that has proven to be that effective, shouldn’t it be famous?”
“Is it strange that you’ve never heard of it?”
“yes.”
“That’s simple.”
Rakiel grinned. I loaded my tongue with bright red lies. An iron plate was laid across the face and a single shot was fired.
“It’s a medicinal herb that was famous in the ancient, ruined kingdom long ago.”
“A ruined… ancient kingdom?”
“huh.”
“What kind of kingdom was it?”
“there is. “It’s called Joseon.”
“This is my first time hearing it.”
“yes? “I first heard it in a dream, too.”
“….”
“You didn’t know? “I learned all the acupuncture and decoction preparations I use in my dreams.”
“…I heard you say that to Sir Gardin.”
“You didn’t know that was really what they said, did you?”
“yes. “To be honest,” he said.
“But what should I do? “It’s true.”
“….”
“If it weren’t real, would it have been possible for me to suddenly practice medicine that I had never learned and treat people overnight?”
“….”
is it. Damian frowned slightly, his beautiful, picture-perfect eyebrows.
‘I don’t think so.’
As I continued to listen, it continued to feel strange. No matter how I looked at it, it seemed like a bit of a far-fetched excuse.
‘Lord Gardin is naive and follows the crown prince unconditionally, so he would have accepted those words to some extent.’
Not myself. After listening to it, there are more than one or two odd corners. But I didn’t really want to make an issue of it.
‘It doesn’t really have anything to do with me anyway.’
I don’t care where the crown prince acquired such knowledge and medical skills. As long as you don’t harm people with it, that’s fine. All you have to do is get a decent salary. So let’s not talk anymore.
‘But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t seem like a bit of a crazy person.’
Damian tried to swallow a bitter smile. Even though I thought about not caring, in the end, a sharp word came out of my mouth.
“Hmm. That’s why you proudly treat people without a license.”
“….”
“Why are you doing that?”
“A license… was that necessary?”
“….”
“Was it something like that?”
“yes. of course.”
“….”
“As far as I know, I heard that there is a medical licensing exam. Of course, Lord Gardin is also someone who passed that test.”
“….”
“Didn’t you know?”
“uh.”
“….”
“It won’t be a problem later, right?”
“Well, for now…”
Rakiel also closed his mouth. A medical licensing exam. I didn’t know it existed. There was no mention of such detailed social situations in the novel.
‘Tsk. ‘It could be a problem later.’
I thought I should be prepared for any emergency. Nowadays, things like oriental medicine clinics and other things are regarded as the crown prince’s playthings, so we just ignore it. If someone takes this issue politically later…
‘It will definitely be a pain in the ass.’
So let’s prepare little by little. Rakiel raised his head, contemplating his plan.
‘Well, anyway, let’s start with more urgent matters now.’
First of all, solving the financial crisis is a priority. We need to make a sample of Minotaur Hwangcheongsimwon first. So….
“I guess we should get the Minotaur gallstones first, right?”
“Are you going to send someone to the imperial herbal medicine store?”
“no.”
Rakiel shook his head.
“Last time I was stocking up at the herbal medicine store, I saw that there was nothing like the Minotaur’s gallstones. No, there was no Woo Hwang. “I guess beef sulfur itself is used as a medicine here.”
“Then how…”
“I have to buy a live Minotaur myself.”
“….”
“I’m going to the city of Cremo. I heard that the port there is the center of logistics in the northeastern part of the empire. “There is also one of the best monster auction houses in the empire.”
“Are you saying you want to go in person?”
“of course. I have to go and see the Minotaur’s condition myself. “You should also check the status of gallstones.”
It’s really obvious. It is a material that will be used to make products that will depend on the survival of oriental medicine clinics in the future. It was nonsense not to check it directly. Rachiel said with a grin.
“So, let’s pack first.”
“….”
“Gazuaa.”
“….”
I wonder if this person is really a little crazy somewhere.
The true protagonist of the novel Demon Sword Emperor. However, Damian is completely unaware of his true identity. He began to become seriously concerned about the mental health of the crown prince, the subject of his protection.
♣
Preparations for departure were made quickly. In fact, there was nothing particularly grand about preparation. The luggage was loaded onto the Grand Tourer, the Crown Prince’s special carriage for long-distance travel.
The composition of the entourage was also simple. Damian and the entire special forces team. 20 palace guard knights. And anise. That was it. Rachiel did not want more people. This is because the more people there are, the more luggage there is, and the slower the journey becomes.
‘of course. Save time. Because time is more precious to me than gold.’
This is still a time-limited life. It is no different from a life of toil, extending one’s life by receiving a little bonus life each day.
So I didn’t want to waste time moving. I wanted to save at least one day. Thanks to this, preparations for departure were completed in half a day. Of course, there were those who were most vehemently opposed to this sudden departure and personnel composition.
“Zuuuuunhaaaa-!”
“….”
“…Aren’t you surprised anymore?”
“uh. “Because I developed a tolerance.”
“Aren’t your eardrums gone?”
“uh. Fortunately?”
“It looks like your earholes are bleeding?”
“…Our Sir Gardin jokes have increased a lot. “Do you think you’ve become quite friendly with me?”
“I’m so sorry.”
“Sorry, sorry. Anyway, what is it? “Why are you calling me so solemnly again?”
“That over there…”
“That?”
“Why do you want to leave me alone, Your Majesty?”
“…was that the reason?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“So you don’t want to be separated from me?”
“Yes, Your Highness.”
“Ugh, gross.”
“….”
“What is the reason?”
“Because I am Your Majesty’s personal physician!”
Sir Gardin answered quickly as if he had been waiting for the question. A solemn look appeared on his middle-aged face.
“To take care of Your Majesty’s health, to do that, I will always be by Your Majesty’s side! Because that is my most important responsibility, Your Highness.”
“Oh, did you do that?”
“Yes, Your Highness!”
“Uhm, but. If even the Lord follows me to Cremo, who will take care of the patients hospitalized here at the Oriental Medicine Clinic?”
“…yes?”
“Who will take care of it?”
“That’s right, werewolf nurses…”
“But there has to be at least one trustworthy doctor, right?”
“My highness?”
“That’s right. Moreover, all hospitalized patients are citizens of the empire? Right?”
“That’s right?”
“That’s why you have to stay here even more.”
“….”
Sir Gardin was speechless. Rachiel’s tongue skillfully stepped on the full accelerator.
“Think about it, Sir Gardin. They are the people of the empire. But what was the spirit that formed the basis of our Magentano royal family?”
“The safety of the people is the safety of the imperial family….”
“That’s right. That’s it. So, it means that caring for and taking care of the hospitalized people is the same as taking care of the imperial family and taking care of myself. is not it?”
“Isn’t that so…”
“Ah. “That’s right.”
“….”
“Isn’t that right?”
“…Sigh! Hehehe!”
That’s not really true. I really don’t think so. Even just looking at cancer, it seems pointless and far-fetched. But I couldn’t think of anything to retort. It was fatal. It was unfair. In the end, Sir Gardin had no choice but to nod his head, swallowing back tears.
“Okay then, we’ll be back.”
“…Your Highness!”
“I’ll buy you a souvenir.”
“Hehehe!”
The carriage moved amid Sir Gardin’s scattered teardrops. That’s how we set off for the imperial capital.
To the east.
To the north.
Toward the rising sun. Toward the North Sea where the frosty wind blows. I passed the city and the castle. I covered the fields and plains. I took a detour around the edge of the forest and crossed the canyon. I ran along the river and passed by the mountain range.
Meanwhile, Rakiel fell in love with the exotic scenery he was seeing for the first time. I felt like I was enjoying a Renaissance version of Switzerland. Meanwhile, Damian watched Rachiel with a strange look. Sometimes not often. The crown prince was strange. Just a crazy person who seems a bit out of his mind?
‘No, in some strange sense, it’s like I have mastered the world…’
I used to get that strange feeling when I was looking at the crown prince. Like someone who has looked at this world through God’s eyes? I had that feeling too.
I didn’t know why.
‘I guess it’s my mood. Because he is such a unique person.’
The more you look at him from the side, the more amazing he is. Damian thought so and stayed by Raquiel’s side silently. One day, two days, five days, eight days passed like that.
And finally.
“Your Majesty, I can see the port beyond the hill. “This is the port of Cremo.”
The guard knight who had gone out to scout returned and reported.
It’s been 8 days since we left the ecliptic Magenta. The group arrived at their destination, the city of Cremo. Of course, no one knew until then that in the next few days, an immortal achievement would be engraved in the name of the crown prince in this historic port city.
Even the citizens of Cremo.
Even members of the party.
Even Rachiel herself.
No one could have predicted it.
