Dark-Haired British Doctor Chapter 394

394화 백내장 [1]

나의 충직한 부하 아니, 제자 존 스노.

녀석의 노력 덕에 우리는 런던의 부유층 중 이가 잘 썩는 집안 50여 가구를 확인할 수 있었다.

In a typical clinical trial, it is obvious that the trial cannot proceed with just confirmation, but who am I?

It is no exaggeration to say that Kim Tae-pyeong, a Joseon shaman, is shaking London with one hand.

Even in this situation where there are rumors going around that the Lord receives invitations when He is bored, who would dare to refuse my 'invitation'?

“This is truly…… an honor.”

“No. Thank you for coming.”

Of course, I also did my best for those who took the difficult step.

First, he wore a silk robe that was only worn on special occasions.

Originally, I was going to try making a hat here, but it was hard to get a gun, and even if I did get one, there was no one who knew how to make it, so I gave up.

My father said that he was from the noble class, but he never actually wore a hat in Joseon, so I had even less information.

Now I wonder if I was really the son of a commoner, but in a way, it wasn't a big deal.

There's a high probability that I bought a genealogy in my past life too.

-Next time, please research about your ancestors who are listed in the biographies.

Looking back, I think the teacher who gave us this kind of homework was out of his mind.

Wasn't the proportion of yangban only 1 or 2% in the early Joseon Dynasty?

If you go to the later part, it is said that the percentage is close to 70% because people buy genealogies through various routes, but buying a genealogy doesn't mean that someone else's ancestors become your ancestors.

Anyway, the story got off track… … .

I personally poured out the fluoride water to the clinical trial subjects who had gathered, dressed politely.

“This is…….”

“Keep it a secret from others. If you gargle with this, you will never get a cavity again.”

“Wow… This is really Seongsu!”

“Haha. What about Seongsu?”

“If this isn’t holy water, then what is?”

“It’s a secret, a secret. It’s a special gift.”

"yes yes."

I've also felt this at VVIP events, but people tend to believe me when I dress up and talk like I'm cool.

These people were no exception.

However, this belief was bound to be problematic.

The likelihood of this continuing is slim… … .

I had it all planned out.

“However, in order to maximize the effect of gargling… that is, the effect of the blessing, there are a few things you must promise before the Lord.”

“Oh, yes, yes. Of course. Can I pray?”

“Pray, but don’t just pray.”

“Oh, I see.”

“First of all, time is important. Everyone, write it down. Do you intend to listen to the Lord’s words with one ear and let them go out the other?”

“Oh, no!”

At my words, the people who had come in as representatives of each household picked up paper and pen and began taking notes.

I felt a little sorry seeing your serious attitude.

In fact, it was not the Lord's word.

But it was such an important thing to say that I soon started talking shamelessly.

“Pray morning and evening.”

“Yes, yes. That’s a good point.”

“We have already said the pre-meal prayer…….”

“Okay. You have to listen to the end.”

"sorry."

Inside, I was thinking completely different things.

It was a conversation I had with Alfred's father, Uncle Patrick, a while ago.

-No matter what… … It’s a bit much to bring water. There’s a gold mine there and gold is flowing out, so what do you mean, bring water there? What does that mean?

It was of little use to say that fluoride was a blessed water and that it could prevent cavities.

If you think about it, it makes sense.

What blessing in the world can dare to compare with gold?

That… …no matter how much I thought about it, it was impossible.

-But when I think about the cavities of Londoners… … .

-That's important too… …but let's think of another number. For now, we'll just keep bringing in water externally.

-What do you mean?

-Water… … Can't you tell the difference just by looking at it?

At the end of the conversation, there was a great realization.

Come to think of it, that's true.

The water was all the same water.

what…….

The key question is whether or not there is fluoride.

For someone who brushes their teeth diligently but still gets tooth decay, would fluoride water really have that much of a meaning for someone who doesn't brush their teeth?

'It might make sense, but let's put it aside for now.'

When I thought about it positively, I realized that preventing people from getting cavities was important no matter what.

Not fluorine!

“I pray after meals. It’s in addition to the prayer before meals.”

“Isn’t that a bit too often……?”

“The meaning is different. The prayer before a meal is a prayer of thanks for the food, and the prayer after a meal is a prayer to prevent cavities.”

“Ah…… aha.”

“So the prayer procedure is also different. First, please accept this. It was originally sold for money, but I am giving it to you only today.”

"uh……."

So I handed out toothbrushes to everyone gathered here.

Since they were all wealthy people, and toothbrushes were essentially consumables, and with current technology it was impossible to make toothbrushes that would last a long time, I gave them good toothbrushes with the thought that they would buy them again soon.

I'm not talking about quality.

“No, isn’t this… a PS item?”

“Do they make things like this here?”

“Yes. I will make it.”

“Go, thank you.”

“It is an honor!”

Let's talk about trademarks.

You might say that it's too much to claim that a toothbrush is good just because it has a brand name on it…

In fact, considering that the same thing is happening in the 21st century and is even very popular, I shouldn't be the only one blaming myself.

I think this is just something to do with human nature.

Anyway, I continued explaining to people who had obviously seen something similar at least once in their lives but had ignored it.

“Bury this here.”

“This is……?”

“This is our own special salt.”

“Isn’t all salt the same?”

“It’s bamboo salt. It’s completely different. Smell it.”

“Oh……it smells good.”

“It’s a holy scent.”

“Oh, I see.”

As I mentioned briefly earlier, the toothbrush itself has already been made.

There are pioneers in the dental field who insist that you should brush your teeth.

But toothbrushes made of things like pig hair were too old-fashioned to appeal to the upper classes of the Belle Époque, who dreamed of a white utopia and were rushing to conquer the world.

On the other hand, to appeal to the poor, cavities were not such a big problem for them.

First of all, there is no proper toothpaste.

There is a lot of debate about surfactants, but don't they have to be there to clean things up?

But even if I eat and drink, there is nothing left.

So this time, I took a hint from the advertisement and tried making my own bamboo salt toothpaste.

“Try rubbing it like this. It’s okay.”

“Isn’t this brushing your teeth…?”

“Brushing teeth? It may look similar. But the methods are different. This is the right way that the Lord taught us, and what others do is wrong. That’s why teeth continue to rot.”

"oh……."

In fact, I thought about explaining brushing teeth by quoting the verse, "The shepherd is the one who takes care of the sheep; you are the sheep."

but…….

I am a person with a conscience, but I have come to the conclusion that it is a bit odd to connect brushing your teeth with brushing your teeth.

It didn't seem possible in the first place.

Korean and English have different words themselves.

Well… … But if I cry now, there's no one who can say anything.

-The nun asked me to tell her thank you.

The sanitary pads that the Cardinal was against, no, that he still is against…

Even the nuns are actively using it.

In fact, the Bible does not say not to wear sanitary pads. It just says not to touch a menstruating woman, but the negative perception of menstruation that has continued to this day is due to people overinterpreting the passage.

It's somewhat ambiguous, that's what I mean, but the convenience of sanitary pads is quite intuitive, so it's only natural.

Even for nuns, who are busy serving others, whether now or in the past, it is surprisingly important to be active, and I heard that sanitary pads are a great help.

'The Lord is with me too.'

All those nuns are praying for me, so I wonder if it would be a problem if I sin a little.

“Right. Good job.”

“Is this okay?”

“Yes. This will allow the Holy Water Gargle to take full effect.”

“Uhh… It’s a bit difficult.”

“Then how did you think that the Holy Spirit was so easy? That’s a belief that only existed in the Middle Ages. When was that time?”

“Well… that’s true.”

Anyway, in that way, I gave fluoride water to the first subjects, had them gargle with it, and even taught them to brush their teeth thoroughly every morning and evening.

Otherwise, he threatened that the Lord or his subordinates would come looking for me at night.

Since communication with the Lord is often difficult, I usually send my subordinates, but surprisingly, there was also a testimony that the Lord appeared to me in a dream and scolded me on a day when I did not brush my teeth.

Actually, it wasn't surprising, it was something my friends said, and it was effective, as expected.

“People who did the experiment… had a significantly lower incidence of cavities compared to family members who did not do it!”

John Snow was so excited to see the results that he came running over.

what…….

Actually, I had expected it to some extent.

I guess that can't be helped.

If we eat the same food but some people brush their teeth and others don't, it is God's providence that the teeth of the person who doesn't brush their teeth become a mess.

“Okay, then I’ll sell water.”

“This is… just water brought from Upton.”

“At least it’s not London water.”

“Isn’t that what it’s about……”

“I laid my hands on it and prayed, so now it is holy water.”

“But the reason we went to America… wasn’t it because of the water that prevented teeth from rotting? If that was the case, then why did we go to America in the first place?”

I would like to continue to supply holy water, or rather, fluorine water, but what can I do when they say that bringing water instead of gold is crazy?

If I had thought differently, there might have been a way, but after listening to it, I think gold is better.

It's not like I was just pouring fluoride on myself in my past life.

This means that if you brush your teeth well, they won't rot and you can live well.

Above all, this is not an era where people live to be 100 years old. If we manage it appropriately, we can get through this before it rots.

“Why aren’t you answering?”

"yes?"

"Whew."

I sold the holy water, no, the water of the sea, to Liston, who was frustrated but had not dared to talk back to me since I planted the head.

He told me that in order to properly use this blessing, I had to brush my teeth, not pray after meals.

I felt quite happy that I had made money in a better way than Bong-i Kim Seon-dal, and Liston, who was next to me, also started laughing heartily.

William Turner approached us like that.

The artist who did Jean Pierre's makeup was a bigger name than I thought, so I did my best to welcome him.

“Oh, what’s going on?”

“I came because I have something to worry about.”

“Because it hurts?”

"yes."

“Welcome. Please come in.”
