Chapter 28: Meds
Chapter 28 Meds
Five days have passed since I tested the drug with smaller dosage so that people who use it recover within three to five days. During these five days, all patients who have used this medicine have recovered in accordance with the time I had estimated before. All data obtained during this trial is in accordance with what I want, where the medicine with a dose of 20 mg cure the patient within three days, while medicine with a dose of 15 mg and 10 mg cure patient within four and five days.
In addition to the two families who agreed to take medicine from me before, I also gave this 20 mg meds to Argus so he could give it to his friends and their families who would work at Spider Crypt. And now they have all recovered and have reported to start working, Irene also asked me to hire one of Argus's friend's wife to help her cook in the kitchen and I agreed. Everything is going very well in Spider Crypt, it's just that there are very few customers there because of this current outbreak.
"With this result I can sell this medicine to people in this city." I want this plague to disappear quickly, because in the past few days the number of customers in all stores that I have has decreased dramatically.
For now I will only sell this 15 mg medicine for 1 gold coin, I may increase or decrease the dosage depending on conditions that will occur later.
"I'd better start packing these medicines and hand them over to Argus for them to be sold in ordinary people's settlement area."
After I bought more antibiotics and immune booster, I started to grind all of these drugs and wrap them up.
I brought about 40 packs of 15mg medicine to Spider Crypt after I finished wrapping it and I still have about 60 packs left in the safe in my private room.
Entering Spider Crypt, I saw Argus and the others who were busy helping Irene and Elin prepare food.
Previously Argus introduced his three friends to me when they had recovered from the plague. They are Gert, Mott and Kiles, of which only Gert is married and Elin is his wife. Argus and Irene offered Erin to work at Spider Crypt as a cook with Irene after I asked them to find additional cooks before.
"Did I come at the wrong time? Looks like all of you are busy right now." I greeted them while they were busy making sauces and cleaning vegetables.
"Boss! Welcome. We are not that busy, because there is no other work at the moment we are helping Irene and Elin prepare food." Argus stood up and answered after they realized my presence.
"Boss!" others greet after Argus.
"How are things here?" I asked.
"It's still the same as before boss, not many people have come here yet. The situation in this area is getting worse." Argus answers my question.
"I came to give you an assignment to sell medicine."
"Is that the same medicine we used before boss?" Argus asked after hearing my words.
"Yes, I want you to sell it in this area for 1 gold coin per pack." I gave all the medicines I brought to Argus.
"Are you sure boss to sell it at this price? At times like this, drugs that can't even cure this disease are sold for 4 to 5 times this price by doctors and herbal shop owners in this city. This medicine already proven to be able to cure this disease, people will be happy to pay the same price as the price of that fake medicines."
"I can sell it at the same price as them, and I'm sure the rich and noble don't mind paying for it. But they are only a small part in this city, if only these people could recover from this disease, it would not improve the situation and the economy of this city. That's why I sold it for 1 gold coin in the hope that everyone in this city could buy it and get well. That way all economic activity in the city will return to normal and I can make more money from the business that I have."
"As expected of Boss Nine, I represent common people thanking you for your kindness."
"You don't need to lick my boots like that, just do it well. After all, I'm doing this for the sake of greater profits."
"Before I forget, if there are people who don't have money anymore because they were cheated by that fake drugs, you can give this medicine and they can pay it later after they have the money by signing a contract. They don't need to pay interest for that, just pay the same price. I want to make sure everyone can recover, besides that you can expand your connection to get information from them. And tell them too, they can share one packet of this medicine for two persons. But they will recover for a longer time, but if they share it to more than two persons, I cannot guarantee they can recover." I added.
"Noted boss. So, when should we start selling this drug?"
"As soon as possible, start tonight if possible. I will sell it at Le Réseau starting tomorrow at the same price. Spread the word that they can only buy through you or Le Réseau at the same price so that fraudsters do not take advantage of this situation to fool more people. Besides that, strengthen your guard because I think someone will try to steal this medicine from you."
I returned to Le Réseau when the sun began to set, when I got there Selvi and the others had begun to prepare to close the shop. Soon the manager of the liquor store and cafe came to submit their daily report before they finally returned together.
I think of ways to limit the people who will buy this medicine tomorrow so they don't buy a large amount by only being able to buy 4 packs of medicine per person, I'm trying to reduce the people who will take this opportunity to buy medicine from me and sell it at higher price. Although limiting purchases like this does not guarantee that no one will do that. At least I have tried, it is impossible to prevent it because people like that will have their own way to get what they want.
'I can only hope people don't buy it from them.'
As I thought about the possibilities that would occur I heard the front door being banged on by someone.
I went down to see what was happening and heard Selvi's voice from outside the door.
"Nine! Nine open the door! *Thump thump*" Selvi's voice sounded like she was in a hurry.
I quickly opened the door and saw Selvi who looked pale and panicked.
"What's wrong Selvi? What made you like this?" I ask anxiously.
"There is... in the orphanage ... and they say it ... I can't ..." Selvi spoke in unintelligible words.
"I don't understand what you said Selvi, try to calm yourself first." I tried to calm Selvi who was very panicked.
After she had calmed down and explained to me what had happened, only then i understood what really happened at the orphanage.
