The Crown Prince That Sells Medicine Chapter 456

Episode 456 Life Bone Cut Festival (1)

Marketing is a clever psychological warfare.

Make the other person open their wallet with the conditions and price you want. However, the other person should not be dissatisfied during the process. Rather, we should be satisfied. It may seem a bit expensive, but it should make you feel like you spent your money on something worthwhile. So, whenever you think about the money you spent, you should make it feel rewarding.

“In short, good business strategy is about mutual satisfaction! “Consumers are happy as they find their own meaning in today’s diameter!”

“….”

The conference room was filled with silence.

Rachiel looked around.

The mayor of the city of Rachiende, the Margrave of Breda Asrahan, and the closest escort, Damien. The three men were trying hard to hide their shocked(?) eyes and expressions.

Rachiel curled one lip.

“why? “Is everyone weird?”

“Yes, Your Highness.”

The first to respond quickly was Damian. The guy said.

“I don’t quite understand.”

“Understanding? no?”

“yes.”

“Which part?”

“This is Sir Tusik’s x-ray that you mentioned. I understand that it is not a bad curse after hearing enough explanations. But really… will people in the city readily believe that and want to get an X-ray?”

“We have to make it like that. That’s why they resort to commercial tactics.”

“What you mean by that commercial tactic is to engrave X-ray photos of people’s bones into bricks, use the bricks to renovate the city square, display them prominently, and receive a small ‘donation’ in exchange for filming fees? From people?”

“yes. I understand. “But I don’t understand something.”

“I don’t understand the part about getting paid.”

Damian asked, feeling genuinely puzzled.

“Even if they don’t, there are people who feel fear and anxiety about Sir Tusik’s x-rays. But if you receive money in return for taking pictures… wouldn’t people feel more repulsed?”

“Yeah, no.”

“Why?”

Damian asked back. Honestly, it was a bit of a strange logic. I didn’t understand it at first. Is there anyone who willingly pays money to do something unpleasant, scary, and anxious? I also thought that such a person might have a strange head.

However, the sly smile that took over Rakiel’s mouth only grew deeper.

“ah. Oh dear. Sir Cayenne has no idea what I meant by the commercial tactics I was talking about. Unfortunately.”

“….”

“listen carefully. Damian? As you said, people are afraid of Tusik’s x-rays. I’m worried that it might be a very nasty and evil curse. In such a situation, what if I were to say that they would take the picture ‘for free’? “Will people be suspicious or not?”

“Oh, that’s…”

“I’m sure people will think this way. Ah, the crown prince wants to hide something or show off something to us, so he’s giving us free photos as if he’s doing it for us. But is this really free? Why is it free? I feel more uncomfortable and anxious, hmm. “I mean.”

“….”

Damian closed his mouth. The same was true for the mayor and the margrave, who sat side by side at the round table and listened. And the three men thought vaguely. What the crown prince is saying right now seems very unreasonable, but it is also strangely persuasive.

Rachiel continued.

“That’s how human psychology is. free? Do you think I will like it unconditionally? no. That’s what they usually say, but it changes when the actual situation arises. because. Humans are animals that are sensitive to gain. When faced with a certain situation, we instinctively weigh the profits and losses in our minds. That’s why. “When someone approaches you with something that is just free without any cost, you have an instinctive suspicion.”

“Is that so…?”

“yes. What if someone approaches you and offers to teach you the world’s most powerful swordsmanship and mind techniques for free? Would you accept that lightly?”

“Umm no. “It feels a little uncomfortable.”

“That’s it. So, we receive a small donation that is not burdensome to anyone with a small amount.”

“To erase people’s doubts?”

“yes. Additionally, people will gain a sense of satisfaction by giving meaning to the money they paid.”

“….”

“It’s a bit like human psychology. What if you pay that much to get an x-ray? Do people think like this? Wow, now that I know that, I guess it’s not that bad. So, you’re probably getting paid as well.”

“Do you really… think so?”

“of course.”

Rachiel nodded. Then he asked Mayor Breda.

“So, what do you mean? “As far as I know, there is a significant holiday in this region in about 10 days?”

“Ah yes, Your Highness. That’s right.”

“What holiday is it?”

“It is a meaningful feast day when Ormus, the only god, spread the first teachings to the world through the mouth of the first prophet.”

“It’s Holy Day. That’s cool. “What kind of teaching was it?”

“The teaching was to love yourself and your neighbors broadly. So, every year on Holy Day, we would gather in the square, eat food together, and hold a festival. Also-”

“Also?”

“It is also a day for young people to confess to the person they have always liked.”

“…it’s a bad day.”

“yes?”

“Oh, it’s just a joke.”

“….”

I didn’t think it was a joke.

For a moment, I could see some sincerity.

However, the mayor sealed those true intentions by suppressing them with social life. Rachiel asked him.

“Anyway, it’s good. “So the festival will be held this year too?”

“That’s…”

“I don’t think so?”

“Yes, everyone was so shocked by Lord Tusik…”

“Tsk, tsk.” That won’t work. It would be sad if the festival didn’t take place. “I’ll have to open it up.”

“How… do you mean?”

“I told you, right? specification.”

“Commercial….”

“The mayor has something to do for that. “First, put up some signs around the city.”

“You mean the sign?”

“uh. All you have to do is write the contents exactly as I tell them. “That would be enough.”

“What do you mean it will be enough?”

“People will want to get x-rays.”

“….”

The crown prince smiles meaningfully.

Mayor Breda and the Margrave look at him like that. The two men who had recently pledged their loyalty each had the same thought as they looked at the crown prince. This person is somehow mysterious sometimes, or even more often than that. It’s hard to understand what’s going on.

And Damian thought quietly.

This person is starting again.

♣

That afternoon, hundreds of signs were hung and erected throughout the border town of Rakiende. It was a sign with Mayor Breda’s seal clearly stamped on it.

The contents of the sign were as follows:

[I am declaring that from today onwards, only the crown prince, the royal family, and priests can take pictures of Lord Tusik’s bones.]

At first, people who saw it felt puzzled.

“honey? “Isn’t this a little strange?”

“I know. “Are you saying that only His Majesty the Crown Prince and the priests can experience the terrifying experience of having bones carved into the wall?”

“Could it be that they are putting the curse of photography on our behalf?”

“I don’t know. “How can I know what’s inside them?”

“But I think that would be a little… dangerous.”

“I know. “Aren’t you overdoing it?”

People’s first reaction was ‘worry.’

He was already a crown prince who received infinite respect from the citizens. After the initiative and sacrifice he showed in the bloody battle with the Bone Dragon, he even created the Holy Water Bath for the recovery of city residents. Thanks to this, the respect and love of the people here for the crown prince almost reached the level of faith.

The priests had nothing to say. The belief in Ormus, the one god they worshiped, was the very life of the people here. Naturally, most of the priests were the spiritual leaders of the people here.

However, the crown prince and priests, who are such great people, will personally bear Lord Tusik’s curse. He will go so far as to go so far as to impose a ban on people.

Citizens who heard the news were worried, concerned, and stunned. Some even quietly cried. Someone else also raised their voice saying that such a terrible thing cannot be allowed to happen and that they must come forward and receive Lord Tusik’s curse.

But the concerns of the city residents were of no avail.

This was because the crown prince was proudly taking self-X-rays in the center of the square the very next morning.

– Twa… tsk!

Phew!

As soon as you press the tip of his nose, Tusik sneezes!

A fierce storm of wind swept the surroundings in an instant. But Rachiel remained calm. I actually enjoyed the situation where my hair was flying around. And then I struck a pose.

‘V!’

click!

With the sneeze, X-rays of more than 5 KeV emitted from Tusik’s core penetrated the air. It passed through Rachiel’s body. In particular, the tissues such as water and fat in Rachiel’s body almost passed by with a free pass.

But the bones were different. The X-rays did not pass through the bones. blocked. Thanks to this, only X-rays that passed through tissues such as fat, water, and protein flew and hit the pure white plaster wall behind Rachiel. And it left a charred trace.

There is even no dedicated film that would have been applied with a photosensitive emulsion such as silver halide (AgBr), which would have been needed in a conventional analog X-ray machine, to show the X-ray image through the Compton effect!

“Oh oh. “It was taken well.”

Of course, since a special film was not used, the image was printed on the wall with a little help from the magical properties of Tusik’s core, so it was quite blurry. In fact, it needed a lot of improvement to be used for medical purposes.

But now the purpose was different.

This was not filmed for medical treatment.

This is a filming intended to change people’s perception.

“So, one more cut?”

Kuuk?

Rachiel gave a signal.

Damian pressed the tip of Tusik’s nose.

Tusik sneezed automatically.

-Touch…!

Phew!

A sneezing storm sweeps the square again!

At the same time, Rachiel’s model pose bones are engraved again!

“…but it seems like I’m being filmed too.”

“It can’t be helped. “Because I’m a cinematographer.”

“People are watching.”

“are you okay. “That’s why I’m doing this.”

“….”

Damian looked around the square with worried eyes. There were countless city residents looking at this side with even more concern than this side.

Rachiel said calmly.

“don’t worry. “Right now, everyone is wondering what kind of sacrifice they’re making, but everyone’s perspective will change in just two days.”

“What do you mean by changing?”

“You’ll be jealous. me.”

“….”

Is that really true?

Damian felt the doubts stirring like a well in the deep mountains, and pressed the X-ray button (?) on the tip of Sir Tusik’s nose.

And five days later.

Rachiel’s boasts became true.
