Run A Medical Clinic In The Abyssal World

Chapter 210：Upgrade Stamina Potion

"Jacob, I got accepted! And considering our situation, the doctor advanced me half a month's salary and waived the medical fee of 500 copper coins."

Nora pushed open the small room in the corner of the second floor of the hotel and excitedly spoke to Jacob, who was lying diagonally on the bed playing games with Carl.

"Really? I knew you could do it." Upon hearing the news, Jacob's face also showed a surprised look, and he tried to get up by supporting the bed.

"Great job, Mom!" Carl clapped his hands and said.

"Don't move, lie down in bed properly." Nora quickly walked up and held Jacob, who was trying to get up. She then took out a purse from her pocket and poured out ten silver coins.

"Look, during this period, we can stay here and temporarily not worry about how to survive."

"Yeah, but it's been hard on you." Jacob looked at his wife with a heartache in his eyes. He knew very well the hardship and humiliation it took to earn that money from others' pockets.

"It's not hard at all. The job the doctor assigned to me is to paste labels on potions, which is very easy work and not difficult to learn." Nora smiled and shook her head. "And, the doctor is a kind person, he won't insult people casually. Once your leg improves and you pass his test, we can work for him together."

"Yeah, okay." Jacob looked at the smile on Nora's face and was slightly stunned. It seemed that he hadn't seen such a happy smile on Nora's face for many years.

This made him reflect on the unfairness of keeping her busy with housework and taking care of the children all these years.

Just spending an afternoon playing with Carl today made him feel tired and anxious, even though he deeply loved his child.

"Are you starting work today?" Jacob asked.

"No, the workshop hasn't been built yet, so it will probably take another ten days before I can officially start working." Nora shook her head, then smiled and said, "So before starting work officially, I plan to find some odd jobs. If I can earn some money, we can buy some meat for you and Carl to eat."

"But the Abyss is so chaotic and dangerous..." Jacob hesitated, his face filled with worry.

Nora, however, smiled and said, "Don't worry, on the way back just now, I already talked to Mrs. Bella, the lady from the bakery next to the medical clinic. She injured her waist a couple of days ago and needs someone temporarily. I can go work for her for a few days, and the daily wage is 50 copper coins."

"Nora, you're so capable." Jacob couldn't help but praise when he heard her words.

Originally, after his leg was broken, he felt that the world was dark, not only because he might become disabled and wasted, but also because Nora and Carl depended on him to survive. If he fell, this home would fall.

But now Nora is proving that even if he falls, she can still work hard to support this family.

"Don't worry, I will recover soon. Even if I can't work for the doctor, I will find a new job." Jacob hugged Nora tightly and spoke with determination.

"Yeah, I believe in you." Nora nodded gently, but tears couldn't help but roll down her cheeks.

...

In the afternoon, Charlotte was no longer relaxed and carefree. Instead, he immersed himself in the alchemy room, frantically brewing stamina potions.

This thing was equivalent to a red health potion, but unfortunately, the effect was not significant enough and felt somewhat worthless.

After successfully brewing five batches in a row and seeing the increased proficiency, Charlotte stopped brewing.

"The recovery effect of this stamina potion is ordinary, probably due to insufficient raw materials or the potion itself. Even if the proficiency reaches intermediate level, the improvement is likely to be very limited." Charlotte looked at the prepared materials next to it and fell into contemplation.

If he wanted to open up the market for stamina potions in the adventurer circle, the recovery effect of this stamina potion had to be at least 10%, not just a slight boost.

This meant that he needed to develop a new "stamina potion."

[Ding! A new task has been issued to develop a new "stamina potion"! The current stamina potion has a weak effect that can hardly meet the users' needs, resulting in almost no market. Please develop a new stamina potion within ten days! Requirements: Intermediate knight recovers 10% stamina. Task successful reward: "Potion Development Rising Star" title! Encyclopedia of Potion Materials *1.]

At that moment, the voice of the system sounded.

"The Alchemical Materials Encyclopedia?" Charlotte ignored the so-called title but was particularly interested in another reward.

The most basic knowledge of potion-making is knowing the properties of the materials you add to the potionwhether they are toxic if they will react explosively, or if they will blend to create a different poison.

And Charlotte knew nothing about this.

So for now, he could only follow the limited potion recipes recorded in the original diary for his experiments.

If he were to blindly experiment on his own, he might end up creating a bottle of poison and send the patient away, which would be more than just a matter of profit.

If the "Alchemical Materials Encyclopedia" that the system rewards is legit, it would be the cornerstone book for alchemical concoctions.

Even if he couldn't directly piece together a lot of potion recipes, at the very least, he could use the book to find directions based on material properties, which would significantly increase the chances of success.

"System, how about lending me this encyclopedia for a while?" Charlotte attempted to talk to the system.

But the system did not respond to his words.

Charlotte had no choice but to make a U-turn and walk into the neighboring bookstore.

The bald-headed owner was serving a middle-aged man wearing a hat, who already had a bunch of colorful picture books in his hands.

As a familiar customer, Charlotte didn't require any greeting from the owner. He scanned the shelves himself, searching for books related to various materials.

Since he couldn't get the encyclopedia for the time being, he had to try finding books that introduced the characteristics of various fauna and flora on the market. Perhaps he could find some inspiration from them.

After scanning five or six bookshelves, Charlotte had a few more books in his hands, but none were related to materials.

One was an old book on the origins of the Red Moon, and another was an observational record of the Red Moon's Night, describing the peculiar behaviors of fauna and flora during the Red Moon's Night. The author claimed to have entered the wilderness multiple times during the Red Moon's Night, secretly observing the process of magical creatures going berserk. The introduction alone was quite intriguing.

The bald boss, who had sold a big business, walked back with a red face as he escorted the customer out. He looked at Charlotte and asked, "Doctor, what books are you looking for today? We have a new batch of goods, do you want to take a look?

Charlotte looked at him and said, "Don't look at new products. Boss, do you have a book in your store that introduces the characteristics of the materials? It's better to have a book on pharmaceutical refining materials, and some obscure food introductions are also acceptable.

Materials? "

The bald boss frowned and thought for a moment, then turned around to take a ladder from inside, put it in the corner, climbed up and searched for a while, took down two old books covered in ash, took a photo at the door, smiled, and handed them to Charlotte,

Buying and writing are also rare, making it difficult to find them anywhere.

The Treasures You Neglect in Life ", "A Hundred Lifesaving Herbs and Fruits that Adventurers Must Know ", Charlotte's book of results, glanced at the book title, and then casually flipped through the content, it has something to offer.

Okay, I'll take these books, "Charlotte raised the books in her hand.

Just give me 100 copper coins, "the bald boss said after just glancing at him.

Thank you. "Charlotte touched a silver coin and gave it to him, then left the bookstore and went to the neighboring bakery. She spent thirty copper coins to buy three Big Mac sandwich breads.

Today's dinner is bread. If you're hungry later, eat yourself. Don't disturb me with my studies, "Charlotte, Vivian, and Kasha warned, and went upstairs with a book and a loaf of bread.
