Card collector from different worlds

When Kim Noisuke went to Eugene's house, something smelled blue from inside.

Do you even make pills?

If that's the case, we'll have to pay attention to the smell damage to our neighbors.

"Hello?"

Looking softly inside, Eugene was just about to pour some green liquid into a small pot.

"Kinosuke? Well done...... just fine. I'm going to split the contents of this pan into pots, but can you help me out a little bit?"

"Yeah, that's fine. We should put it in a lot of pots, okay?

"Yes... generally until about the eighth minute"

"Okay."

Squeeze the drooling liquid from the large pan, and put it in the kettle.

The kettle was big enough to be held by the sides, and when Kiyonosuke counted, it had twenty in all.

"What do you use this for?

"It's a pill, of course, but you can't make it in bulk at once."

"Really?

"Because pill making skills are suitable for making a determined amount. This is what we can do together, and we can only do the rest of the detailed work quantitatively."

"Heh... that's a pain in the ass"

"So you're saying it's not going to work... that's the last time"

After I finished splitting it into a kettle, I covered the top with a narcotics cloth and loaded it by the side of the room.

They put it away until it stays cold.

And then you think you're going to use your pill making skills for pots?

"I'm sorry you had to help me."

"No. I've come to tell you a lot, so this much."

"I mean impressive. All in all, I've got some free time, and I thought I'd talk a little bit about making the pills I promised."

"Please"

Sit down and Eugene will give Kiyonosuke a chair.

When they sat across from each other, Eugene spoke out.

"Firstly, pills are used in the sense that they are round substances with a drug effect suitable for long-term preservation. So even if it's the same effect, if it doesn't require long-term preservation, it can be said not to be a pill, but to remain a frying agent or an immersion."

"Wait a minute. First of all, I don't know from the frying agent or the dipping agent."

"Hmm. A frying agent is primarily something that is soaked and heated in water or the like after crushing or finely slicing solid things such as tree trunks, bark, or nut skins. Then the ingredients in the ingredients may be extracted, so drink them."

"Is that the frying agent"

"Yes, the dipper is the same as the frying agent, but it's a softer one. The ingredients are extracted by heating flowers, stems, and the like. Drink it."

"Oh, I get it. Fried tea, in a broad sense, can also be a frying agent."

"Right. Yeah, and if you're in an environment where you brew and drink right away, you don't have to bother turning it into a pill. Is that good enough for you?

"Yes. Somehow I understand. Pills are preservatives."

"That's the thing. Considering other medicinal effects that work on the outer skin, there are also rehearsals (leprosy) and ointments. The practice agent is a condensate, and the ointment is the same, but the ointment mixes vegetable oils and the like. They're both sunny, but not for that long."

"I understand ointments and all that."

"Hmm. So, pills, but I mean ingredients condensed and in the form of small balls so that they can be stored for a longer period of time, and so that even a small amount can work. Tablets and licks come into play. The tablets are for swallowing, and the licks are for licking and dissolving in the crotch. Together, these two are called pills, and the skills that make them are called pill-making skills."

The tablets were often prescribed by doctors, and Kinosuke applied them around, wondering if the licks were like candy or troches.

"It's okay, please continue"

"You swallow fast. Then let's talk about how to make it. First of all, it's the same as potion making. Allow the ingredients to dry well before crushing. Use a crusher or cutting machine to crush. Which material to use is omitted here, but this machine smashes the material into small, fine pieces."

Kinosuke saw the crusher on which it was placed.

It is shaped like a foot machine used in Japan in the past.

The teeth to be crushed are rolled, and they will crush the biological pills caught between them as they rotate with glue.

The cutting machine looks like a press machine at first glance.

If you look closely, your teeth are aligned vertically and horizontally, close to the feeling of mincing them with lots of knives.

"You look awesome both ways. If I pinch my hand, it's going to tear me apart."

"Now I smash the material into smaller pieces and use the one that went through the knitting, but I also use the knitting fairly fine one. I'll put it on this machine as many times as I can until it passes through the finest thing."

"That sounds like a pretty tough task."

"Right. Then, add water to the powder that came out and heat it. That's what happened to the big pot earlier. Simmer over a melting fire for a few days so as not to let it boil. However, if you use your pill making skills, you won't have half a day to work on it"

"Really?

"The use of skills can facilitate the reaction of simmering to allow the ingredients to be extracted quickly. It'll take about a tenth of an hour, so it can't be more convenient."

"... I see, that's convenient"

"Oh, that's why skill holders are treasured.... so, once extracted, stop the fire and stop stirring it. The large pot naturally cools down, but discards what is floating at that time. It's mostly dust, debris, and parts that were dead from the beginning, so throw away everything you took out"

"So you throw away the supernatant."

"That's right. Repeat that three times. Cook slowly stirring and discard the supernatant when cold. When that's done, I'll switch to the pot, as I just did, but from here on out, it's not like making potions."

"So you're going into creating pills."

"Uhm. The top of the kettle is just covered with narcotic cloth, so if you leave it like this for about a hundred days, it will drain moisture in good shape. It will only take a few days if you use your pill making skills. If you do this in a large pot, it will fail. The surface and sides of the pan drain moisture to the point of cracking, but the central part may remain drooling. So we have to protect the portions."

"That's pretty cynical. So if you don't have pill making skills, do you keep them in the pot for 100 days?

"That's right. If you lose any moisture in the kettle, I'll spin it around with a scratch stick. In the meantime, the ingredients react and solidify. At the end of the day, you're going to do it with a stick until you're one round chunk."

"It's hard work."

"As soon as you have the pill making skills."

"It's gonna be tough without you."

"I guess I'll spend the day spinning around in one pot"

"Wow, that's tough"

"Next is the last refining, but we're going to need quite a few kettles because we're going to do our current work on each ingredient. Also, if you don't need a lot of it, you can put it in a small bag. It's hard to spin, though. … so you will mix the ingredients necessary for the pill, but as a percentage of the ingredient content, you may think that you will mix more or less three to seven"

"That's a pretty good mix."

"Right. One by one can be a small amount, but if you follow the procedure, it will take a lot of work regardless of the amount. And put the mixture in this box."

What Eugene took out was like a larger cigarette case.

It was double structured and a drawer came out of it.

"What is it, is it?

"It's a round machine. Stuff here the source of the mixed pills, Hore. Like this."

I closed the lid and slid the round machine with Kashakasha, Kashakasha.

When I opened the other side, the pills came apart.

"I got pills... that's awesome"

"Isn't that amazing? If I make it this way, I do the final finish so that the ingredients don't get worse. This is called an outer wrap, where shrimp and crab shells are boiled and powdered. Drop the pill over this powder and roll it so that the surface becomes smooth. Now you're done."

Earlier, the pills that came from the round-making machine were thin and teka, so oil or something must be in the round-making machine. That serves as an adhesive to powder pills, Kinosuke thought.

At the same time, the oil may be as resistant to drying as this coating.

For powdering crustacean shells, the colour of the coated pills was white.

It also looks slightly sparkly, but does it contain seashells or something?

There was also a reddish dye, so I guess I'll color code it for pills. But if you don't, the maker is going to make a mistake.

"How much can you save with this?

"A few years is fine. If the surface cracks, you can assume that the ingredients inside have deteriorated. Until then, no problem."

Does it feel like it depends on the coating of the surface in the end because if you treat it abusively, it will degenerate?

Kinosuke thought you should be careful carrying it.

"Speaking of which, how are pills and potions different?

"Difference? Many potions have the same effect if the materials are the same. Still, the potion has a short shelf life, which is different from what works immediately. Also, the potion is not part of the pill where you can adjust the amount you need or use it all together. However, there are very few types of pills that can be made compared to pills. Because the potion works for multiple symptoms, it also has convenient side effects. However, I think the potion would be better if it were urgent."

Is the pill close to herbal medicine?

In Kim no Suke's knowledge, potions come to mind for medication or nutritional drinks.

Either way, there will be demand in this world.

When I looked at the shelf, a thin bamboo container caught my eye. Will I put pills in that one?

It's just the right size, so I'm sure it is.

It might be interesting to have a medicine holder that an old man used to have, something like an imprint.

"What changes the shelf life depending on the?

"You can't say it all because it changes where and how you save it. So we'll just have to decide if we've got a crack."

If so, it will not be possible to determine whether the pills sold are freshly made or not.

If you card it, you will still need to be careful when buying it if you continue to display it in the store.

"And what about the ratio of ingredients or something?

"This is hard. For example, [Tatayuri roots] do not work for the Beast people, so they may be substituted with another object, but in the case of species that do not work well, the content may be increased. Others have fewer strong ingredients if the child drinks them. Yeah, well, don't make it uniform."

"Really? That's a lot more trouble than I thought."

"Sometimes you can make something that suits that person for that matter. Sometimes we take orders and then we make them."

Kinosuke thought it would seem useful to have something like a prescription.

"I see. Let me see where you actually make it next time."

"Oh fine. If it's so hassle-free, you can make it here."

"Thank you"

Kinosuke thus received knowledge of pills from Eugene.

However, I also realized that the hurdles still seemed high to make them.
