The Treatment Is So Good That the Patients Become Obsessed - Chapter 56



56 – Special Mission! Sell cosmetics!

Previously, Director Alfonso dealt with the nobles.

I haven’t heard anything from Director Alfonso, who was sweating profusely, as he tried to persuade the nobles.

From Noble mtl dot com

“Well, it will take time for the Merhen Orphanage & Kim’s Charles collaboration special whitening cream to be sold. If you visit another day…”

“We came here because we heard that we can buy whitening cream. You’re not selling it yet?”

“Yes, I haven’t heard anything yet…”

“Well, then maybe we should go back.”

Because I wasn’t there, Director Alfonso tried to send the nobles away!

I put on my best sales smile.

Since I have made an appearance, don’t worry, Director Alfonso!

“Oh, Mr. Kim Cheol-su…!”

“No, isn’t it Kims Charles?”

Director Alfonso and the nobles recognized my face!

When I used to treat patients for free at the Kim Cheol-su Free Clinic, many neighboring nobles would come, so my face is quite well-known around here.

I spread my arms wide to prevent the nobles from running away!

Where are you going?

You can’t leave before buying the whitening cream!

“Hehe, welcome. This is Merhen Beauty from now on, in collaboration with Kim Cheol-su Orphanage & Charles. I am Kim Cheol-su, the beauty representative.”

“Oh, so Kims Charles owns a cosmetics store. Splendid, how much stock do you have? I just want to buy a little for now…”

“Hmm, I’d like to hear about the product. Honestly, I came because my wife told me to, I don’t know anything.”

The nobles were cautious!

They were the heads of noble families and “men.”

They are deeply rooted in the idea that cosmetics are just for making the face paler.

Even though they came here due to their daughter and wife’s persuasion, they still didn’t seem to notice the big difference between flour and my special whitening cream.

Exclusive Manly Club, Men wearing makeup? Absurd! You are not a man!

Men don’t wear makeup! That’s what they say.

The noble men of this era, while not going as far as “men don’t wear makeup,” do wear makeup at social gatherings or festivals.

Makeup for nobles is a means of distinguishing themselves from commoners.

Noble men also wear makeup to show off to commoners.

The feeling of “I’m a noble, so I wear makeup. I’m different from you commoners. How does that sound, superior, right? Haha!”?

They only wear makeup because it’s necessary, but they are not as obsessed or interested in cosmetics as women.

In other words, I need to persuade noble men who are not interested.

I glanced at the uninterested noble men and opened my mouth.

“Have you all tried the whitening cream I made?”

“My daughter brought it, so I tried it once…”

“I came after hearing the rumors, so I haven’t tried it.”

“To those who haven’t tried it! Please give it a go.”

I provided some of the nobles who hadn’t used whitening cream with my product!

The nobles who received the whitening cream applied it to their faces and started evaluating it in their own ways.

“Hmm, it’s moisturizing and fragrant.”

“It’s different from flour, I might buy a little…”

“How is it?”

In response to my question, the noble men showed lukewarm aesthetic responses like “It’s okay, good.”

Still, not showing much interest in cosmetics.

They have yet to feel the strong allure of my cosmetics!

“Well then, I’ll just have to create a reason for them to buy my whitening cream!”

With ambition, I smiled broadly.

“Have you ever used flour cosmetics before? Do you know about them?”

“Hmm? Flour cosmetics? I’ve seen people around me using them, so I’ve tried them too.”

“I see, Lord John. Do you happen to know that flour can cause skin allergies and make your skin worse?”

“Flour cosmetics can make your skin worse…?”

“Yes!”

In this era, flour cosmetics are simply a mixture of flour and water that you apply to your face. When you dissolve the flour in water and apply it in moderation, it can be good for your skin. However, due to the prevailing notion in this era that a fair complexion is beautiful, people tend to apply it excessively, causing friction and itching, leading to rashes.

“Some people with resilient skin might be fine, but for others, it can cause itching and rashes.”

“Come to think of it… after my daughter started using flour, her skin turned red…! Is that the problem?”

Lord John became aware of the issues with the flour cosmetics he had been using. As a solution to this problem, I presented the cosmetics I had created!

“However, our special collaboration whitening cream from Merhen Orphanage & Kims Charles is different. It contains lemon as one of the additives, which makes your skin clear and white. Lord John, don’t you find the whitening cream moisturizing?”

“Hmm, it does feel like it adheres well to the skin.”

“Our special whitening cream is good for your skin the more you use it. It makes your skin healthier!”

“…!”

Our whitening cream is not only about making your face fair but also about improving your skin health!

This message greatly resonates with the noble gentlemen who were previously uninterested!

To think that cosmetics also take care of your health. It’s natural for the wealthy to be interested in their health. Wealthy nobles want to live long, and they won’t hesitate to spend money on it!

“This… seems to be worth investing in.”

As expected, Lord John’s tightly closed wallet opened, and the clinking sound of coins was heard!

Following him, noble gentlemen who felt the need for my whitening cream approached me with a strong desire to purchase, visibly excited.

“Hehe, shall we make a supply contract then?”

* * * *

The supply contract was successfully concluded.

A total of 8 noble families and a one-year supply contract!

The warehouse of Merhen Orphanage was filled with piles of coins, which were the advance payments received for the contract.

This amount alone is enough wealth for Merhen Orphanage to live comfortably for a year.

The director and the caregivers were speechless and couldn’t believe it.

“Hehe, these are just the coins received as an advance payment. We’ll earn even more money when we supply the products.”

“I-I’m not sure if we should accept it. Mr. Kim Cheol-su did all the sales!”

“It’s okay. We started this to help the orphanage financially.”

“No, Mr. Kim Cheol-su. Please take 90% of the profits! We only need 10%!”

“Oh, please don’t say that!”

“Please!”

Director Alfonso, trying to hand me money no matter what!

I started this for the kids, but what’s the point if I end up with more money!

Facing off against Director Alfonso for the sake of the kids, I finally agreed to split the profits 50-50: half for me, half for the Merhen Orphanage.

Just decided to split the earnings evenly.

“Hmm, it’s really fine…”

Director Alfonso seems burdened by receiving constantly.

He says it’s because I’m too generous.

Over there, daycare teachers Lina and Cocoa are quietly celebrating, holding hands.

At least for this year, these two won’t struggle without money, so they laughed happily.

“Not just this year, but next year too, there shouldn’t be any worries about money.”

You never know how a business will turn out.

But since we’ve secured a supply contract, for now, it’s full steam ahead!

All that’s left is making the cosmetics!

“Let’s make cosmetics!”

Mix it up~

The daycare teachers and kids stirring a huge pot, adding lots of lemon juice and yogurt, spinning it with a ladle.

This is the mass production process of the Merhen Orphanage & Kims Charles collaboration special whitening cream!

In the orphanage’s front yard, this production line ends with a table.

Children are smearing lemon juice and yogurt on their faces at the table, while packaging the whitening cream in the pot.

Truly a scene reminiscent of a cosmetics factory.

Supplying cosmetics to the nobles should proceed without a hitch.

As I hung the signboard “♥Merhen Beauty♡” that I created under the Merhen Orphanage sign, I felt a sense of accomplishment.

“Ah~ now there shouldn’t be any worries about money, right?”

Even if my whitening cream fails.

I’ve committed to supplying cosmetics to 8 noble families for a year.

If I make a good profit for a year, things will be easier from now on.

“Therapist.”

Erzebert, pitch black as ever, approached me with well-packaged whitening cream!

“I made the cosmetics.”

“Hmm, well done.”

I gently ruffled Erzebert’s head.

This guy, now healthy, is diligently helping with making cosmetics.

Erzebert also seems eager to be of help to the orphanage.

“Ah~ I’ll work hard making them, so it will help you, Therapist.”

“Huh? Help me?”

“Yes, I heard if I make these, half the profit goes to Therapist.”

“Hmm… well, that’s true.”

“I’ll work hard on it.”

Well, yeah.

Good things are good, aren’t they?

I neatly arranged Erzebert’s smooth hair and gently tapped his back.

Erzebert, savoring with closed eyes.

This winter, thanks to the Count Roland’s donation of grains to the orphanage.

Perhaps due to eating well this winter, Erzebert’s cheeks have filled out.

At first, he looked a bit pitiful, but now that he’s gained healthy weight, I find him quite beautiful.

Even if he doesn’t know, when he grows a bit more, he will truly become a charming beauty.

“Grow up without getting sick.”

As my second surgical patient, my affection for Erzebert is significant.

Erzebert had his face buried in my leg, breathing lightly.

…And a week later, there was a sudden increase in customers at my clinic asking for cosmetics for some reason.
