Chapter 52: Look at the world
is too fast!
He wants to be a Viscount in his dreams, but is there really no problem in becoming a Viscount in two or three years?
Especially through the "Pharmaceutical War" this violent means against the nobles of the entire Srpa province?
Baron Tabor frowned and said, "Ryan, directly letting the price of the medicine jump by 90% will really make us the public enemy of Srba Province. I think we can slow down a little bit and be late. Becoming a Viscount in ten or eight years is actually nothing."
According to Ryan's approach, he can become a Viscount in just two or three years, and be firmly established as a Viscount in five years.
However, the process is too bloody. It needs to step on countless corpses of countless families, and it needs to be an enemy of most of the nobles in Srba Province. If it is careless, the Albert family will fall into a deadly place.
Ryan shook his head and said: “It’s really a lot of stability to take your time, but as the saying goes, one step is slow and slow. It was originally five years to secure the Viscount title and start the second five-year plan. Once compromised, it will need to be postponed for ten to twenty years , And we have to give up many benefits."
Baron Tabor said: "What about becoming a viscount more than ten years later? Our Albert family have been barons for hundreds of years. Is it short of this time? And the piece of meat is too big, and we want to take it alone. Yes…"
Lane suddenly interrupted Baron Tabor and said, "Father, is it enough for you to be a Viscount?"
"This one…"
Baron Tabor was taken aback.
His lifelong ideal was to nurture Ryan to become a talent, let Ryan marry the illegitimate daughter of a certain viscount, and make the Albert family more prosperous.
As for becoming a viscount?
I didn't dare to dream before.
Now that there is a chance to become a viscount, what is there to be unsatisfied?
Lane said, "Father, you don't want to be the tail of the crane among the viscounts, do you? You also want to have the same status as Earl Idosi in your life, right?"
"I…"
Baron Tabor gritted his teeth.
Of course he wants to!
He clenched his fist and said, "Is it really possible? Can we do it? Can the Albert family become the top five or even the top three big family in Srpa Province in my lifetime?"
Lane believes: "Of course!"
"...Okay! Let's take a gamble!" Baron Tabor slapped the table and said proudly: "In case of failure, it is a big deal to start again from another place. With our father and son's ability, it won't be difficult to get a baronship anywhere. ."
Lane didn't tell Baron Tabor all his thoughts.
Why does he fight a price war?
Why did you initiate a "pharmaceutical war" without hesitating to offend the nobles of the entire Srba Province?
In addition to wanting to be the only medicine family in Srba Province, he has another more important idea-he wants everyone to use medicine!
In this world, the price of medicine is very expensive, and the Baron family dare not use it at will.
Ordinary civilians who face minor illnesses like colds, fevers, and coughs either stubbornly hold on or use earthwork with unclear effects, let alone a potion of dozens of silver coins, and can't even afford ordinary herbs.
And there is Ryan's improved medicine. The price of raw materials is only one-tenth of the market, and the refining method is simple and can be mass-produced. Even if the final retail price is reduced to one-twentieth of the market, it is completely profitable.
The original fever-reducing potion of dozens of silver coins can be bought in two or three silver coins in the future.
Although it is still a little expensive in Ryan's opinion, you can buy a large bottle of fever and cold medicine from the previous life for a few dollars, and a silver coin can be converted into a coin of the previous life, which is tens of dollars.
Two or three silver coins to buy a bottle of potion that can only be used once, in Ryan's view, is too expensive!
Expensive is a bit more expensive, but at least the civilians can afford it. When the civilians have money, they can prepare a few bottles of medicine at home for emergencies.
Unlike in the past, the bankruptcy has finally made up enough money, and the store will not sell you at all!
Because pharmacy needs a pharmacist to refine, if you want a pharmacy, you need to customize it, it doesn’t matter that other pharmacists are too lazy to make your little money.
Lane doesn't think he is the savior, nor does he want to be the savior.
But in the matter of medicine, whether it is for the Albert family or the common people, it seems to him to be a win-win thing. If it is a win-win situation, why not do it?
Unless it is the kind of guy who is born anti-human.
Lane said to Baron Tabor: "The pharmacy factory is almost built. It should be officially started when the spring starts, and our plan can be formally implemented at that time."
"Pharmaceutical factory?" Baron Tabor touched his beard and said with emotion: "I never thought that refining pharmaceutical agents is such a simple thing. It can actually be refined in batches of hundreds of thousands of bottles, all thanks to it. Lord Felica..."
Baron Tabor doesn't think these are the credits of Ryan alone.
Lane was very smart before the age of fifteen, but he was far from his current level.
Lane at that time was the most talented knight in the history of the Albert family.
At that time, Ryan, after studying pharmaceutics with pharmacist Grandpa Harder for nearly ten years, was more blue than blue, and successfully developed two medicaments, healing ointment and nourishing body soup.
Until this step, Ryan's performance is within the scope of ordinary people's understanding. There are still one or two teenagers who can match Ryan in the province of Srba.
But after returning from Waller City, Ryan has undergone earth-shaking changes!
The root of all this is undoubtedly that woman-Ginji Felica!
Considering that Ryan had studied with Felica for seven days when he was in Waller City, he only taught the health regimen on the surface. In fact, only God knows how many things he taught.
Baron Tabor has reason to believe that the reason why Ryan has grown up now was taught by Felica.
Only the daughter of God who was born to be blessed by the heavens like Felica, can make Ryan reborn in just seven days.
just—
Baron Tabor said, "Ryan, you are sixteen years old this year. Shouldn't you think about marriage?"
"This is it again?" Ryan smacked his lips: "Could it be the illegitimate daughter of Viscount Garcia again? Didn't I say that I don't like girls older than me?"
"No, no, no." Baron Tabor quickly waved his hand: "Now and then, you were only worthy of the illegitimate daughter of the Viscount. Now it's different."
As he said, Baron Tabor took out a stack of portraits from his chest, "There are many viscounts who want to marry you, including a prostitute, and the age is also very suitable for you. From seven to fifteen years old, Huanfeiyan thin…"
Lane directly waved his hand and refused: "I like the coquettish Mei Yu with the lordosis and back curl, and I am not interested in these loli who have no full hair."
Baron Tabor said depressed: "Sister Yu? But didn't you say that you don't like people who are older than you?"
"correct."
"Where is the royal sister younger than you?"
"Then wait."
"Uh…"
Listening to Ryan's sophistry, Baron Tabor sighed.
He knew that these words Ryan said were just excuses. The real reason was that Ryan already belonged to his heart, and the person he liked was exactly—
He patted Ryan on the shoulder, and said solemnly: "My son, you are so good, even if you want to marry a woman from the earl's family, I believe it is only a matter of time, only..."
"She is the only one you should give up. I heard that the Holy Church has begun the official selection of the saint, and she is the most promising candidate for the saint."
"Even if she loses the election in the end, it won't be something I'm waiting for **** to covet."
The sacred church is the largest religion in the world. All people on this land of the Seven Kingdoms believe in the sacred church. There are churches of the sacred church in every city.
And the matter about the selection of saints is not a secret at all, as long as it can be found by the heart.
When Baron Tabor went to the city of Reno this time, he stopped by the church and asked about Felika's news. He was shocked to find that Felika's status was far more noble than he had imagined before!
But the respect is the same, whether it was before or now, Felika is not accessible to people of their status.
Baron Tabor persuaded Ryan: "You can get her appreciation and be able to follow her for seven days. This is already the greatest favor from the heavens for you to our Albert family."
"…Oh."
Lane rolled his eyes.
This is what Baron Tabor said to him when he was in Valle a year ago, and a year later, he still said these things to him.
He was depressed. Which eye did Baron Tabor see that he loved Felica so much that he couldn’t help it?
It's been a year and still believe in this idea?
Ferika is an ordinary passerby in his eyes, okay!
Looking at Ryan's eyes, Baron Tabor only felt that Ryan was unwilling to face the reality, unwilling to look at this cruel world. He could only say: "Someday you will understand."
