Doctor Player Chapter 171
“How did that happen?”
Nothing was guessed.
Just then, Mevinson and Rao came running.
“older brother!”
“Lord!”
They made strange faces, but they said an unexpected story.
“The lords have come!”
“…!”
Surprised, the lords of the Cran and Ranson estates, where the disease first occurred, bowed their heads.
“Meet the Commissioner.”
“Is there a problem?”
Raymond met the two with a bad eye.
The two refused their application to prevent him from becoming a feudal lord. Not only that, but even at the beginning of the outbreak, the fact was not reported.
‘If I had reacted more quickly, I could have reduced the damage.’
In all epidemics, the initial response was very important.
If you act quickly in the beginning, you can drastically reduce the damage.
It was a situation where I had to blow that golden time, so I couldn’t keep my eyes open.
“Is there a problem?”
The two hesitated, then lowered their heads.
“Please!”
“Please solve the epidemic that is spreading around our territory!”
As expected, it was business as expected.
But Raymond didn’t immediately nod.
‘Of course I plan to solve the epidemic.’
Those lords had something else to receive.
[I confirm that the opponent is the ‘truth’!]
[‘Truth special skill: Forced hukou making!’ is manifested!] The
perfect skill was manifested just in time.
Raymond started with image making.
holding both hands.
Of course, only his actions were kind, but he had other thoughts on the inside.
‘I’ll have to use it as an infinite hukou from now on, so I’ll definitely use the leash this time.’
If they were like Rotten Krin, they wouldn’t have used this method.
But they are completely unreliable.
Through this opportunity, I decided to fill the forced leash.
“Do not worry. Former commissioner and healer. It is my duty to solve the epidemic.”
“thank you!”
The eyes of the two lords shook.
Even though he was so hostile, he held his hand like this, so there was no way his heart wouldn’t be shaken.
However, Raymond’s current appearance was all ground food. To put a leash on the two of them.
Raymond got to the point.
“Of course I will help you two, but…There is one problem.”
“What is? Just speak.”
“It is the treatment cost.”
“…!”
Raymond made a puzzled face.
“The Tower of Healing kept forcing me to receive appropriate treatment fees. I feel like I have no choice but to pay for the treatment of the two of you.”
It wasn’t a lie.
The tower of healing continued to put pressure on him.
The two lords couldn’t help but nod their heads.
“All right. How much will the treatment cost… …?”
“Let’s see where this is. If you do the math… …One and a half million pennies each. We will give you a special discount, 1.4 million penas.”
“what…!”
The two jumped up.
does not make sense. It was a staggering amount.
“What kind of ridiculous amount…!”
Raymond made a genuinely sorry face.
“you’re right. That’s an unbelievable cost of treatment. However, according to the Tower of Healing Official Rules, the amount is correct.”
Raymond took out an official letter from the Tower of Healing and showed it to him.
It was an official letter that pressured him to receive at least this amount of treatment.
“In the case of this plague, Viscount Dorian of Double A class failed to treat it, so it should be regarded as at least a double A or higher disease.”
For reference, A class is 1000 pena.
For Double A, 3,000 pennies was the ‘minimum’ appropriate treatment fee stipulated by the Tower of Healing.
“Ha but…It’s an epidemic.”
“you’re right. In the case of infectious diseases, there are separate regulations. It is said to receive an amount equal to 1/20 of the corresponding level of treatment cost for the number of territories.”
For reference, it was the standard treatment cost when the epidemic was completely eradicated. In order to collect the maximum amount of medical expenses, these regulations were also prepared.
According to the Healing Tower regulations, it was 150 pena per person.
Considering the population of the two territories, 1.5 million pence was right.
Of course, the Tower of Healing had never actually received such a fee for contagious disease treatment. Most of them reached an agreement on the right line.
However, it was true that the prescribed treatment cost was this.
The two lords couldn’t answer and just opened their mouths.
Raymond continued with the most pitiful expression on his face.
“I am in trouble too. I don’t want to pay for the treatment, but the Tower of Healing is so intimidating… ….”
Although he usually didn’t pay attention to such threats, Raymond put on a distressed face.
After acting with a lot of worries, he spat out a voice pretending to be for the two of them.
“So I thought of a plan for the two of you.”
“What is?”
“It’s like borrowing money from me with a 50-year due date.”
The eyes of the two lords widened.
“Of course, it is interest-free. I will reimburse you 30,000 pence a year if you and I will rule for the people of the territory. How is it?”
“…!”
“Isn’t that a good condition? Isn’t it the lord’s duty to serve the people anyway? Just do your job faithfully, and the debt will go away by itself.”
The two lords swallowed their saliva.
Raymond wasn’t wrong.
But there was a problem.
‘If this… …We will become subordinate to Count Penin.’
Debt will bridle you on a leash.
In particular, Raymond clearly said ‘with me’.
The meaning of the words was clear.
I want you to cooperate with me in the future.
The two realized Raymond’s intentions, but had no way to say anything.
Raymond delivered the decisive blow to the hesitating two.
“I don’t know why you two are worried. As long as you two serve the people, the debt will disappear without any problems.”
It was sincere.
Because what Raymond wanted was for them to govern the territory well and not cause unnecessary trouble.
I didn’t want anything else.
Eventually, the two let out a sigh.
‘under. There’s no way.
It’s usually not a serious situation.
If the epidemic is not resolved, there is a high possibility that they will lose their territory.
“All right.”
“I will accept the Count’s offer.”
The two knelt down and Raymond clenched his fists inwardly.
‘It was great!’
So Raymond subdued the two lords.
* * *
It was not a situation to be pleased with by subduing the two lords.
The epidemic had to be dealt with immediately.
“What kind of plague is it?”
Christine asked.
“I don’t even know right now. I’ve never heard of an infectious disease that gets healed and gets worse… ….”
Raymond’s answer gave Christine and Hanson dark faces.
It was an intuition that solving this epidemic would not be easy.
Christine bit her lip.
“I’ll go first and check the patient’s condition.”
“Disciple?”
“What if the Master catches an infectious disease? So I’ll go check it out first.”
Raymond shook his head.
It was an unbelievable story.
Above all,
“… …Isn’t it dangerous for you too?”
But Christine had a more embarrassing story.
“I’m OK. It would be much better for me to take the risk than for the Master to get sick and be in danger.”
“…!”
‘No, what kind of absurd idea is that?’
But Christine was serious.
‘Master is indispensable for others. So it’s better for me to take the risk.’
Now she knew
Raymond’s greatness was different from hers.
So she thought she should do what she could for him.
‘The Master’s downside is that he doesn’t care about his own risk for the sake of his patients. Because I’m a fool who only cares about patients.’
Only patient idiot Raymond.
That was her idea of Raymond.
Though it’s frustrating that Raymond doesn’t take care of himself.
‘So I have to step in instead.’
“It’s better for me to be in danger than for Master to be in danger. Masters are precious.”
It was after I said that.
she was sorry
He seemed to have made some misleading remarks.
Everyone was looking at her curiously.
‘Oh no. It’s not… …It’s a precious existence for everyone!’
I was about to make a quick correction, but Hanson interrupted.
staring at her
“Me too, Master. Masters are more than precious to me, they are like light and salt.”
“….”
“I can’t imagine life without Master, so I’ll take the place.”
Elmude also stepped out.
“No, I will come and go! I can’t imagine life without Master! of course…My medical knowledge is still lacking, but as a relief knight, I will take the risk instead!”
“….”
By the way, Elmud started studying medicine not too long ago.
Do you think you need to know medical knowledge to fulfill your duty as a relief knight for the sick?
Linden said without a soul.
“Me too!”
Even the sage Mevinson cried out restlessly.
“If something bad happens to you, your lord, you will lose hope of a life where you belong! Tears come to my eyes just thinking about it. Please send me this worthless body!”
“….”
Meanwhile, looking at them like that, Raymond said,
‘… …Be quiet. You fools.’
Even if it wasn’t, I was crazy, but I lost my mind even more.
“Don’t worry about that. I have something in mind. Bring what you asked for to Lao Magic Tower.”
“Your brother!”
Rao brought in a portable closet like a fashion designer.
“This?”
Everyone’s eyes widened at the style of clothes they had never seen before.
It was like full body full plate mail armor.
“Hazmat suit.”
Raymond grinned.
‘Because we can’t deal with the risk of infectious disease forever. Protective clothing is essential.’
In preparation for such an epidemic, it was commissioned and produced based on the modern Earth’s protective clothing.
It’s obvious, but it’s a huge price!
A whopping 5,000 pennies per suit. It was originally 10,000 pence, but with a special discount, it turned out to be 5,000 pence.
‘…damn. Debt is growing Even if I become a feudal lord, will I be able to enjoy wealth and glory?’
In an instant, such uneasiness flashed through my mind.
I don’t even know how much debt I’ve accumulated right now. It’s been a while since I didn’t check it because I was afraid.
It was probably well over 800,000 pence. Although he received a large amount of money after the victory, debt continued to pile up due to various things.
‘I will definitely solve this epidemic in order to pay off my debt!’
The only way to pay off that enormous debt is to become a feudal lord and sit on a cushion of money!
To do that, we need to address the epidemic.
Raymond took a protective suit and headed to Lanson Manor, where the largest number of patients had occurred.
