Chapter 437

Doctor Player Chapter 437 is

a multinational association, but it is a tower of healing that has already completely lost its position in the Free City Alliance of the Iron Empire.

However, even in the Crusader Empire, there was no place to go if he was kicked out. Mountains will fall.

“Do you think the people of Sa will be happy to see our healing tower gone? His Majesty must know that there are still many people who believe in our Healing Tower.”

Louis protested like that.

That was right.

From Raymond’s point of view, the head of the medical school, he didn’t regret it at all whether or not the tower of healing disappeared, but many patients still knew that heels were the best.

There will be a backlash if Raymond forcefully kicks out the healing tower.

however.

“People’s prejudice continues to this day.”

“… … I beg your pardon?”

“I still don’t know. Why did I step into this shabby place myself?”

Louisen’s eyes were wet with doubt.

“I, the emperor, personally came and bowed down for the sake of the people, but your healing tower refused. Will the people who heard the news think of your healing tower as they do now?”

“… … !”

“Moreover, the medical school healers I trained are coming to the ecliptic. What if our medical school’s healer solves the contagious disease in a situation where you refuse to be treated? What do you think will happen then?”

Louisen’s eyes fluttered.

In that case, people will enthusiastically cheer the medical school.

The position of the Healing Tower will be terribly narrow.

Raymond crossed his arms.

“To be clear, I am giving you a chance. A chance to somehow survive in the Crusader Empire.”

As Raymond said, the only way for the Tower of Healing to survive in the Crusader Alliance Empire was to participate in the epidemic and make a contribution.

“But if you want to kick that opportunity, then you have no choice.”

Raymond turned his back.

Then the position changed.

Unfortunately, it became the Tower of Healing.

In the end, the tower owner Louisin hurriedly lowered his head before Raymond left.

“Wait a minute, Your Majesty! Our Healing Tower will also play a part in resolving the epidemic!”

“No, now that I think about it, I don’t think I will necessarily need your help. The empire’s finances are tight, and there’s no waste of money to pay to you guys.”

“no! Since it is for the people, our Healing Tower will serve you for free!”

Top lord Louisen swallowed her tears and said.

If the Tower of Healing collapses, the power and wealth he enjoyed as the owner of the tower will disappear like a mirage.

That’s why I’m struggling to keep the tower of healing alive somehow.

Raymond smiled meaningfully inwardly when Louis, the tower owner, surrendered the white flag.

‘I’m sorry, but I can’t be satisfied with this alone.’

Yes, Raymond had a dark heart.

The dark heart that will completely kneel the Healing Tower at this opportunity.

I came up with a story for that.

“Okay. Allow the Tower of Healing to join in solving the epidemic. Instead, there are conditions.”

“What is?”

“Please acknowledge the medical practice of our medical school as the orthodox theory of the Tower of Healing.”

“… … !”

Tower lord Louisen’s eyes shook.

Medicine is no longer called witchcraft.

However, it was not recognized as a proper theory in the therapeutic academic world.

It was because of the resistance of the existing orthodox healers.

However, he meant to take this opportunity to acknowledge medicine as the mainstream teaching of the Tower of Healing.

‘No, I’m not saying simply admit it as a mainstream teaching.’

Tower owner Louison noticed the dagger hidden in Raymond’s proposal and swallowed.

‘This is a proposal that can completely destroy the Tower of Healing.’

Recognizing the theories of the School as the mainstream teaching of the Tower of Healing brings one very important advantage.

‘Healers at the top of the healing can also join the medical school without any restrictions.’

Until now, healing top healers had many restrictions on joining the medical school even if they were interested in medicine.

It wasn’t forbidden.

However, since it is not a mainstream school, as soon as he joined, he was classified as a minority school and received various disadvantages within the Tower of Healing.

However, if it is recognized as mainstream teaching, such disadvantages are fundamentally blocked.

In other words, orthodox healers can join the medical school without any disadvantages.

If so, the result was obvious.

‘A lot of healing tower healers will try to join the medical school.’

This trend will grow exponentially over time.

The medical school is the rising sun.

Because the Tower of Healing was the setting moon.

As the status of the medical school rises, more and more people will want to join the medical school, and what will be the result?

The Healing Tower will gradually lose its color and eventually disappear into the shadow of the Medical School.

It was a natural downfall.

“… … .”

Perhaps he had an intuition for such a future, but the tower owner, Louise, did not readily answer.

But that’s for a while.

“… … I will follow Your Majesty’s proposal.”

He had no choice.

If he refused, the Tower of Healing would collapse immediately.

It was better to fall slowly over time rather than fall right away.

At least until the owner of the tower retires, the Tower of Healing will remain in existence.

Tower owner Louis had no choice but to be satisfied with that alone.

“I look forward to seeing you in the future, Your Majesty.”

Tower lord Louisen acknowledged the Tower of Healing’s defeat and bowed his head to Raymond with a servile expression.

He realized that if he wanted to continue to enjoy wealth and glory, he would not have to escape the eyes of Raymond, who had become the new emperor.

It was a great change of attitude as someone who had risen to the position of tower owner with political power.

“Then, please take good care of me during this epidemic.”

“Yes, we, the Tower of Healing, swear to do our best for the people!”

It ended so warmly, but there was something that the tower owner, Louis, hadn’t guessed.

What Raymond, who warmly held hands, was thinking inside.

Raymond was thinking of getting rid of Tower Master Louis.

‘I must have suffered a lot in the position of the tower owner. I will shake everything off once this situation is over.’

Raymond planned to use the power of the emperor to dust off the tower owner Louison on charges of tax evasion and embezzlement.

why?

If the tower owner is brought down on suspicion of corruption, the downfall of the healing tower will be accelerated.

‘The faster the Tower of Healing falls, the better it will be for me to make money.’

Raymond thought evil to himself.

Isn’t that an abuse of power?

What does it matter?

‘Before becoming emperor, I will abuse my power as much as possible before throwing off the throne!’

* * *

After solving the manpower problem, Raymond set out to solve the epidemic in earnest.

Leaving the treatment of patients to the healing tower healers, Raymond focused on preventing the spread of the contagious disease.

“Until the plague subsides, please refrain from gatherings except for essential activities!”

“Patients with suspected symptoms should refrain from outdoor activities and stay at home!”

The basis of quarantine measures to prevent the spread of infectious diseases was to minimize contact between people.

Originally, it was difficult to force easily, but thanks to the imperial authority, he was able to do it.

Also, the respect for Raymond made it much easier for the people to follow his instructions.

“It is what the Holy Son of Poverty has commanded, so of course we must follow it.”

“It must be an order given for us!”

However, not everything went smoothly, but there were also practical problems.

It was a matter of people’s livelihood.

“There are many people who live day by day. If this lockdown continues for a long time, it will take a toll on livelihoods.”

“There are many needy people who have nothing to eat tomorrow, not for a long time. We need to come up with measures for them.”

That was a valid point.

‘Even in modern Earth, there are many cases where proper containment is not possible due to this problem.’

Raymond made a troubled face.

Lockdowns take a devastating blow to livelihoods.

In particular, this kind of damage is concentrated on the poor and poor people.

They do not die from infectious diseases, but rather starve to death from poverty.

‘But you can’t avoid limiting contact. If you do, you will suffer even greater damage.’

This is not modern Earth.

The medical infrastructure is not at a poor level, but it is at a level that can be considered non-existent, and the hygiene is very atrocious.

Therefore, when an epidemic with a high fatality rate struck, it was common for 1/3 1/2 of the population to die.

At that time, livelihood is not a problem, but a matter of survival.

‘That’s why you can’t turn away from those who are having a hard time making a living right away. There are many people who don’t have food to eat tomorrow.’

In the end, there was only one way.

Raymond said, swallowing his tears.

“I think the imperial family should provide support to the extremely poor who cannot make ends meet through this measure.”

Providing support from the state!

There was no other way.

‘Huh. I hate spending money, but I can’t help it.’

Fortunately, there were a few things.

First of all, since we intervene strongly in the early stages, we will be able to minimize the contact blocking period.

If Hanson’s healer corps arrives soon and full-scale quarantine activities will be released, the contact block will be released sooner than expected.

‘I don’t have to spend my money on this. Can I use it from the imperial finances?’

This support is provided by the imperial family.

So, you can use it by subtracting it from the imperial treasury. Thousands of luck.

But the former emperor Catherine said something unexpected.

“I do not have money.”

“yes?”

“There is no money left in the imperial treasury. Because we are always in a deficit.”

“… … .”

Raymond narrowed his eyes.

“Oh no, but I don’t need that much money… … A million pennies should be enough.”

I’m not going to support all the people of the imperial city.

We will only support the very poor, who are really struggling to make a living.

It will not be paid in money, but in the form of food, in the form of relief.

So you don’t even need a lot of money, but you don’t have the money?

“No, no. Originally, it was in the red, but now it is a particularly special situation.”

special circumstances.

It means war is ahead.

The young duke Karim, who became his new aide, nodded.

“That’s right, Your Majesty. We are urgently preparing military supplies to fight the Gears Kingdom, so we don’t have enough money at all.”

said Raymond, bewildered.

“Then… … Can’t we borrow it from the bank as soon as possible?”

loan!

Bank loans are not limited to individuals.

The state also takes out massive loans.

Right now, isn’t Raymond’s Houston royal family heavily indebted to the bank?

“If you borrow it from the Fallen Group, go away… … .”

fallen group.

A banking group owned by the Scary Rose.

Raymond mentioned Fallen Group because they always rented the lowest price.

“Is the Fallen Group going away?”

Catherine asked back as if it were absurd.

“It’s famous for having the worst ring ever, isn’t it?”
