Eternal Cultivation of Alchemy
Chapter 726 Little Trouble in Little Clinic
A week into opening the clinic, Alex's days got busy.
The first two or three days were mostly free as not many people noticed his clinic, or it hadn't gone through enough ears to be recognizable.
However, once he had treated enough cultivators, that too with comparatively very cheap medicine, his clinic got lined up from day's start to day's end.
It got so ridiculous that Alex had to decide to take a dedicated day off on the weekend or else he would be overworked.
Shurin came to help out in the clinic as well, mostly just to make sure people were staying in line.
Alex used her Royal disciple robes to gain some more popularity as well. After all, anyone who could employ a Royal disciple had to be someone notable.
And yet, when the people tried to figure out his identity, they didn't find anything notable about him.
He never learned anywhere, had not appeared in any auction, had not been part of any school, sect, or family.
The Alchemy guild didn't openly give away their alchemist's private information, and the princess made sure everything about Alex was under wraps in the palace, so no information about him could ever reach the public.
As such, Alex became an enigma that came out of nowhere and took the capital's lower-end citizens and cultivators by storm.
The rich ones would still look for pills, and the strong cultivators never trusted a mere doctor to take care of their issues.
As such, Alex was stuck to selling healing pastes made from common rank ingredients, while his True rank pastes never saw the light of day.
Shurin played around with Pearl as they waited for Alex to be done in the room inside.
This was the last customer of the day and they would leave after this.
The man who went in with a limping leg, came out all straight with a happy smile on his face.
"Thank you so much, doctor," the man said. "I can't tell you how long this leg has troubled me."
"It's my pleasure," Alex said and waved the man away.
"Phew! That's it right?" he asked.
"Yes, brother Yu," Shurin said.
"Alright, let's leave," Alex said and left with the two.
The next day was a day off for Alex, so he spent the day making pills as a way to cool off. He didn't really know what else he could do aside from that.
He wanted to fight, but then without Shen Jing, he just couldn't. Alex sighed and returned to making more pills and pastes.
A set of ingredients for a normal paste usually cost him about 20 to 30 spirit stones, whether it was Common rank or True rank.
Each paste made with these ingredients would give about 20 to 25 scoops worth of paste, meaning if Alex sold each scoop for 5 spirit stones, he would earn about 100 spirit stones, giving him nearly 4 times the profit on his investment.
He started wondering if he should lower the cost even further, but then he decided not to. At least, not right now.
The next day, Alex returned back to shop with Shurin and saw a long line of customers.
"Physician, please hurry up."
"I needed you yesterday."
"Do you still have enough pastes to sell? I want to buy some."
"Sir, I am from the Snowhill merchant group. Do you have time to talk with me?"
People spoke one after another, but Alex walked without acknowledging them. Only after he was in the front of the room did he turn around and spoke.
"I will immediately start treating you all. Don't worry about the pastes, I have plenty, but you cannot buy more than a jar each. As for merchants, I have no intention of doing any business with you all," he said and called the first person on the line before entering.
Alex treated one after another as well as sold pastes at the same time. 'Sigh, I need to get someone else to do the selling part,' he thought. He wanted to employ Shurin for that job, but she was already handling the line outside and making sure people were orderly.
'I will think about it later,' he thought.
Alex told her he would be out right away and looked at the naked lady in front of him.
The first few times he had to ask a woman to undress, he had felt bashful and couldn't help but show a bright red face. However, slowly, he started getting somewhat more used to it and could now treat them without any hesitation in his hands or mind.
He applied a scoop on his medicine around the rashes that had appeared under the lady's breasts. In a matter of seconds, the rashes disappeared and Alex breathed a sigh of relief.
He continued treating the woman in front of him for a while longer as there were more areas with rashes. Only after fully treating her did he leave.
He took a deep breath to make sure his face wasn't red yet and walked to Shurin.
"What's wrong? What is the problem?" Alex asked.
"These men cut their lines, and they won't listen to me," she said.
'Someone who wouldn't listen to a disciple of the royal family?' Alex turned with a curious look and saw a group of young men and women who were in the early True realms.
Unlike Shurin who had broken through just half a month ago, these people had been in the True realms for a few years now, so it was obvious they would be hard for her to handle.
The one that took his attention was someone that looked like he was the leader of this small group. The man looked young like he was in his teens, but given his cultivation base, he was likely as old as Alex himself, perhaps even more.
The man would've normally never grabbed Alex's attention. Neither with the True Disciple 6th realm nor with the True Earth alchemist badge.
However, what did catch his attention was the white robe with burnt edges.
'A member of the Zhou Family,' Alex realized. The Zhou family were the people with White Fire and were known to be great alchemists.
The fact that this young man already reached True-Earth as a mere True Disciple realm cultivator was perhaps one of the best performances anyone could pull off on this continent.
However, that didn't impress Alex at all. After all, the robe had only grabbed Alex's attention, not his interest.
Alex walked up to them and stood before them. Alex was shorter than the man by a couple of centimeters but he started directly at the man.
"Are you here to cause trouble?" he asked.
"Who are you?" one of the men asked.
"Hey, that's the doctor I think," one of the girls replied.
Alex quickly glanced over them and they were all alchemists too, mostly in the True Mortal rank.
If Alex was to make a bet, he would bet that these alchemists were mostly just responsible for making Common pills, as True rank ingredients would be a waste in their hands.
"Did you guys cut the line?" Alex asked.
"You must be the one in charge here," the man from the Zhou Family gave a smile. "I am Zhou Guyang. I have come upon a rare problem in my butt area, would you be willing to look at it?"
"Did you cut the line?" Alex asked again.
"What? No," the man said and turned to look at everyone else in the line who didn't dare speak up as they realized who he was.
Alex turned around to Shurin and asked, "Where did they cut the line from?"
"That man in yellow robes. They are supposed to be behind him," Shurin explained.
"So, who is next?" Alex asked.
"This woman in blue," Shurin pointed.
Alex nodded and looked at the woman. "Please come in," he said and walked towards the door.
However, when he reached the door, he realized that the woman didn't dare move at all.
'Of course,' he thought. The woman was afraid of disrespecting the alchemists and Alex couldn't blame her for that.
'It seems I will have to take care of them first then,' he thought.

He continued treating for half a day when an incident took place. Shurin knocked on the door while he was treating to let him know there was some problem outside that she couldn't handle.Alex told her he would be out right away and looked at the naked lady in front of him.
