I Quit My Job and Run a Café - Chapter 472



Only Noblemtl

Episode 472 Progress in the Heart [1]

The requested surgery is being postponed day after day.

Fortunately, the princess, Landgrave Elisabeth of Hesse-Homburg, also agreed.

Although he was a little out of breath, he wasn’t at the point where he would collapse, and it was only natural since the chances of the surgery being successful were only 50% at best.

Even in the 19th century, a 50% chance of life or death gacha was not easy.

‘If you think about it… … I started this for nothing.’

In the first place, the heart surgery was done because of Elizabeth, but she actually said she wouldn’t get it done…

So you ended up continuing with the surgery that you couldn’t have done?

Of course, if you ask me if it is not rewarding, that is not true.

Don’t they say it’s all a matter of perspective?

If it were not ‘There’s only half a glass left’ but ‘There’s half a glass left!’, then it would be completely hopeful.

“Haha… … This is amazing, really.”

“What did I… … Our Doctor Tiepyeong did a great job.”

“Wasn’t it you, Director, who unearthed that? If it weren’t for you, that yellow… … .”

“Shh. Watch what you say. Do you want to be cursed to death?”

“Oh, is that true?”

“He is a person that even the king cannot treat lightly.”

People in the 19th century, especially doctors, were all positive people.

That’s what the Belle Époque was like in the first place.

Technological optimism is running wild.

Strictly speaking, it doesn’t seem like a particularly good time to do that, but it is.

Well, even in this day and age, being a doctor is a job that allows you to make a pretty good living.

At least compared to ordinary workers, they are a different class.

It is because it is a job that is mainly chosen by people of different classes, and also because people tend to give up everything when they are sick.

Even the wild healers are living quite comfortably.

Of course, there are times when they are killed by angry guardians and patients.

“I was deeply impressed by the lecture.”

“Oh, if that’s so, thank you.”

Anyway, I’m here for the congratulatory party and after-party of the heart lecture.

Naturally, the main speakers were me and Liston.

Besides that, Alfred also made a glorious debut.

That’s because he was much better than Nana Liston when it came to anesthesia techniques.

“How on earth… … did you think of stopping a beating heart?”

“Because… there’s a patient.”

“Wow… … As expected. As expected of an honorary white man!”

“that…….”

Well, my interest in anesthesia techniques was just so-so.

Actually, if you think about it, that anesthesia technique would save many more people than my surgery…

Isn’t it not easy to find out the true value of something?

There is a reason why artists live in poverty while they are alive and only do good things for their descendants.

“Hey, you were here.”

“Oh, brother. There are too many people.”

“Of course, isn’t it a historic day?”

“I think it would be better for the patients to go back.”

While I was casually greeting him and thinking about something else, Liston, who was surrounded by many people like me, approached me.

I was so stuck I could barely move, but when Liston came out I finally had some room to breathe.

Indeed, this person is a martial artist.

“Is that so?”

“Of course. Is this a normal surgery? It must take a lot of physical strength.”

The Murimin looked at the patients guarded by Joseph, John Snow, and Colin at my words.

I heard that the original plan was to set them up next to us as loot so that we could touch them one by one, admire them, and things like that.

If it had been a few months since the surgery, I would have said the same thing.

After all, people’s wallets will open more easily when they see a real, living, breathing patient.

But among them, there are some who had surgery at most 10 days ago.

‘Immunity… … .’

The concept of immunity is a bit difficult.

Even in the 21st century, there are people who are confused.

Aren’t there many people who ask what they should eat to boost their immunity or what medicine or injection they should get?

But immunity isn’t like that.

It simply refers to the power of our body to fight off pathogens that enter from outside.

The most important thing is to prevent them from entering in the first place, which is almost the same as not getting hurt.

The skin is a very powerful protective barrier.

‘Eat well, rest well… that’s what’s important.’

In addition, conditioning management is very important.

The same goes for managing chronic diseases.

In particular, diseases such as diabetes make you vulnerable to infections, so you should be careful.

After something big like surgery, it’s a good idea to be careful about meeting other people.

“Is that so? Everyone says it’s much better than before the surgery.”

“But it’s not at the level of an ordinary person.”

“Well, that’s true. Well… … It’ll end soon anyway.”

“Well, I should go to sleep. Now.”

For Koreans, who usually think of parties as all-night parties, these British parties might seem a bit unfamiliar.

Well, it wasn’t that time, it was a long time ago.

In the case of parties held in large mansions in the suburbs, men and women who have fallen in love go to a room and have a second round, but… … .

This is a party with doctors and some influential people.

“Shall we go?”

“Whew… … I had a great time.”

“Oh my, it’s been a while haha.”

Doctors, past and present, make mistakes.

No, I think it’s better to say that I can’t talk like an popular kid.

I was like that in my past life too.

I’ve never been to a club or a nightclub.

Instead, I went to PC rooms a lot.

And a comic book store.

“Okay, go.”

“It was a little disappointing without any laughing gas… … .”

“Go home and do it.”

“Yeah, I guess so.”

There’s nothing like that here, so everyone has to drink and have fun, which isn’t easy.

If all you talk about is patients and illness, what’s so interesting about it?

Of course, it is fun if you do it.

People find it most interesting to talk about things they are interested in.

But it was bound to be different from a party hosted by the real popular kid, Sir Jamie, so we all went home before 8 o’clock.

“Oh, we’re thinking of doing this, what about you?”

The core members remained.

It’s for poker.

If it’s just for that, I’m willing to join too.

It’s really an era where there’s not much to do.

“Oh, no. I just wanted to try the medicine the pharmacist gave me earlier.”

“Ah… … What is that Nitrone? It looks like it’s a hallucinogen… … .”

“Leave it alone. He said he wanted to enjoy it alone.”

“No, at least start dating… … .”

In this day and age, gambling establishments always stock drugs.

And they are not some vague or unproven ones like amyl nitrite or nitro.

“Okay, here we come!”

“oh!”

“With this, I could even stay up all night!”

“Hahahaha!”

I covered the eyes of my disciples.

I was worried that I would get influenced by bad guys like Liston and Blundell.

In particular, the youngest, John Snow, was kicked out.

‘Why does that kid always come here?’

No… … That John Conroy guy is really the enemy now, right?

Princess Victoria is about to come of age.

William IV, despite his many missteps, remains sane.

If things continue this way, the regency will be lost.

It’s not something I did, since it’s something that happened in history.

But are rumors always rational?

-They say that Kim Tae-pyeong, the idiot, extended the life of William IV!

-That… Even if it’s a blood transfusion, is it okay?

-I heard that there is a way to extend life by praying while being careful not to let the seven candles go out for seven days?

-her…….

Even the Three Kingdoms were mixed in.

I’m Korean… … .

‘Is this why Chinese kids keep cursing and saying that Confucius was stolen?’

But what can I do?

The image of China is a mess.

On the other hand, Korea is good.

I guess they want to bring back to Korea things that they see as good from abroad.

‘Since it has come to this, I must publish Fu Manchu in advance with my own money.’

But if we continue like this, it seems like things could turn out the opposite way.

It looks like there’s going to be a novel coming out with a Joseon villain who uses suspicious sorcery.

Of course, I won’t leave it like that because I have a lot of money and a lot of manpower to spend.

“Hah… … This is why I can’t quit here.”

Well, John Conroy doesn’t seem to be particularly disappointed.

If you think about it, isn’t that a successful life for someone like Pilgrimage?

furthermore…….

‘Why is your nose like that?’

That’s a drug dealer.

That’s a pretty serious level of drug abuse.

How do you know?

My nose is stuffy.

“No… … John. Why are you doing that?”

“I said this is stronger. Haha.”

“Well… well, do whatever you want.”

I know him well, but he’s not that smart.

He’s a guy who uses his brain.

So instead of standing alone, wouldn’t you stand next to your friend’s wife?

But he became a genius only in front of cocaine.

‘What… I thought I was watching a movie.’

When you watch American movies, they always snort cocaine, right?

So some people think it’s cocaine, but it’s not.

Because cocaine is a foreign language.

Anyway, it’s not for nothing.

That absorbs much faster.

So the stimulation is strong… … .

There are a few drawbacks.

Cocaine is a very powerful vasoconstrictor.

If you inhale it through your nose, the blood vessels in your nose will contract, causing the middle of your nose to die.

“But your nose has gotten a little lower?”

“It was originally too high, so it’s okay if it goes down.”

It’s coming down, that’s what I’m saying.

Normally, no matter how dire the situation is, people would come to their senses by then, but that kid doesn’t seem to have any intention of doing that.

what…….

What can I do, he’s not even mine.

Thank goodness Liston and Blundell don’t do that crap.

‘Actually, that’s not a good thing.’

It would be more honest to say that I learned to give up on things I couldn’t change.

So I took the kids out and took them home, and came back with Alfred and Joseph.

In his hands he held nitro and amyl nitrite.

First, the effect of amyl nitrite was confirmed.

Nitro?

I didn’t know what this was, but I just found out.

“Isn’t this a bomb?”

I thought it was a joke, but it was true.

He said he would show us an example by wrapping powder in a cloth and throwing it outside, and it exploded with a bang.

It was a stronger impact than a grenade.

Who threw it?

Surprisingly, it was James Hope, who claimed to be the first cardiologist.

Certainly, those who deal with the heart, regardless of whether they are in the internal medicine or surgery department, have a rough side.

‘Nitro… … Glycerin was the official name.’

It’s probably a fairly familiar name to the general public.

Later, Nobel used this to make dynamite.

But to doctors, it is famous for a completely different meaning.

This is the most commonly used antiangina medication even in the 21st century.

It is a miracle drug that, when placed under the tongue, expands blood vessels, reduces chest pain, and in some cases, even prolongs life.

There’s an American spy drama called , and this is the drug the main character hides when he kills the US Vice President.

It’s not for nothing that they call it a miracle.

‘Anyway, coronary artery surgery is absolutely impossible. In that case, I guess I’ll have to try to prolong my life with this.’

I really wonder what it would have been like if I hadn’t existed in this era.
