Chapter 24: The Ninja World Is Not Just Fighting and Killing, It's About Relationships.
Where there are people, there is a cultural and social world. The cultural and social world is not just fighting and killing, it's about relationships. The ninja world is also the same.
What do people strive for in their lives?
Of course, it's money!
Ninjas fight to the death for the same reason!
They engage in high-risk occupations just to earn a living and live a happy life.
Now Konoha's predicament, besides the personnel problem, is just one word, no money.
But with money, there will be people. As long as there is money, what's the matter with one ninja village fighting four ninja villages? Let's see who can last longer.
If there is enough funding, it would be so comfortable to stuff dozens or hundreds of explosive tags in one person's hand and throw a few at each other when they meet.
Unfortunately, this kind of extravagant idea is unlikely.
Uchiha Nan leaned on the chair, and the table in front of him was full of various dishes, all with good color, aroma, and taste. The most important thing was this place, the most luxurious hotel in Konoha, used to meet Uchiha's important guests.
Just this table of dishes and this place cost a full 30,000 Ryō, which made Uchiha Nan smack his lips.
Uchiha Nan's net worth, going out to do an ordinary A-rank mission, is also hundreds of thousands of Ryō of income, and eating this meal is still very painful.
Eating like this every day can bankrupt Uchiha Nan. Fortunately, Uchiha Nan doesn't have to spend his own money. The family pays the bill. After all, this is Uchiha's official business.
"The guest who is coming soon is called Fujii Hiroki. His family, the Fujii family, has contracted the large iron mine in the Land of Fire and has been cooperating with Uchiha."
"There are people above their family who are high officials in the Land of Fire."
"He has a very good temper. I have a good relationship with him..."
Tomita Uchiha introduced Fujii Hiroki, his family background, personal preferences, from beginning to end, comprehensively and carefully taught Uchiha Nan.
Dealing with these powerful families in the Land of Fire is not as simple as being a ninja.
Being a ninja only needs to kill people. Being a clan leader has many more considerations.
Since Uchiha Nan had activated the Mangekyo Sharingan and was the future of Uchiha, for the sake of Uchiha, he would teach Uchiha Nan his experience as a clan leader without reservation.
This time, Tomita Uchiha specially accompanied Uchiha Nan. They owed the Fujii family so much money and had delayed for so long. It was estimated that there would be some unpleasant words at the dinner table.
Tomita Uchiha was afraid that Uchiha Nan would be young and impulsive, relying on his powerful strength, he would directly draw his sword and kill Fujii Hiroki. The scene of Uchiha Nan throwing Lava Style into the crowd was still vivid in his mind.
Obviously, Uchiha Nan's temper was not very good. He couldn't be judged by Uchiha Nan's past performance.
If he really killed someone, it would be a big joke. If he failed to collect the debt, Uchiha killed the debtor. The powerful people in the Land of Fire could join forces to block Uchiha's family business.
This kind of bad precedent can't be set. The powerful people in the Land of Fire are also afraid.
The ninja families of the five major ninja villages have all been in debt for this war. If they all learn from Uchiha, if someone comes to collect the debt and directly kills the debtor, will the powerful people of various countries still live?
If Uchiha dared to be unreasonable and be the first to stick his head out, the daimyo of various countries would unite and let Uchiha know the power of money. Various bounty orders would be issued like raindrops, making Uchiha unable to bear it.
No matter how strong Uchiha is, he is just a ninja family.
Uchiha Nan listened carefully to Tomita Uchiha's teachings. It could be seen that Tomita Uchiha was sincerely teaching him how to be a competent clan leader, including many secrets of the nobles of the Land of Fire.
These were things that low-level ninjas who only knew how to kill could never come into contact with in their lives.
Suddenly, the door creaked open, and a middle-aged man with a round body and a slightly fat body walked in. His clothes were bright and beautiful, and he was obviously rich and powerful.
"Tomita, long time no see!"
"Long time no see!"
Tomita Uchiha greeted him. After a brief greeting, he introduced Uchiha Nan to Fujii Hiroki, the new clan leader of Uchiha.
Fujii Hiroki's face changed slightly, and he immediately smiled and introduced himself to Uchiha Nan.
Uchiha Nan naturally took over the conversation very enthusiastically. In his previous life, Uchiha Nan was a salesman, and he was very familiar with this kind of scene.
In this life, he had been practicing killing skills and studying how to kill people efficiently.
But now, his past professional skills suddenly showed up. Wasn't it just licking the father of Party A?
He, Uchiha Nan, was very skilled!
As long as he was at the dinner table, Uchiha Nan could serve you comfortably with his rich skills.
Tomita Uchiha accompanied him to drink, his eyes widened as he looked at Uchiha Nan, which was amazing. He was too skilled, too skilled to be outrageous.
The flattering auspicious words were one set after another, and there were also those drinking toasts that he had never heard of, making Fujii Hiroki drink one cup after another, making Tomita Uchiha feel that he had come a bit redundant today.
In the middle, Fujii Hiroki did not forget his mission and mentioned the arrears. Uchiha Nan immediately began to complain about the family's hard life, which made Tomita Uchiha couldn't stand it. It was a bit too exaggerated.
As for the arrears, Uchiha Nan didn't say that he wouldn't pay it back. When the money from above came down, he would pay it back with interest.
Fujii Hiroki naturally couldn't say anything more.
Then they started drinking again. Two against one, plus Uchiha Nan's skilled licking skills, interspersed with jokes, and talked about topics that men love, making Fujii Hiroki drunk and started to call each other brothers.
If his brother was in trouble, would his brother help?
"What are you talking about? Don't worry about the arrears. I'll take care of it, hiccup, hiccup..."
"I still have some weight in the family. I'll supply Uchiha with another month's worth of goods."
"..."
"Good brother!!"
"Let me toast you another cup!"
"..."
Write an IOU!!
Write an IOU quickly!!!
Tomita Uchiha quickly asked the waiter for paper and pen, signed the contract, fearing that Fujii Hiroki would deny it after he woke up from the alcohol.
While Uchiha Nan was feasting with the big client in the hotel, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura were wandering on the streets of Konoha.
After escaping from the battlefield desperately and being frightened by Mito Uzumaki, the two buddies, Hiruzen Sarutobi and Danzo Shimura, decided to find a place to get together, have a meal, and talk about the future of Konoha.
Especially when Danzo Shimura heard that Mito Uzumaki would support Hiruzen Sarutobi to become Hokage, his uneasy heart immediately relaxed, and his mood turned into joy, while a faint sadness lingered in his heart.
He couldn't help but recall the scene at that time. If he had been the first to stand up and die, would he have been the Third Hokage?
Joy and regret filled his heart.
He was afraid that his brother would have a hard time, and he was also afraid that his brother would drive a Land Rover. This was Danzo Shimura now. He was worried about Hiruzen Sarutobi at first, but now that he was doing well, he was sad again.
A partner who had always been similar to him was about to become the highest leader of the village. It was even more uncomfortable than killing Danzo Shimura.
However, Danzo was too optimistic and did not notice that the villagers on the street always looked at them vaguely, with contempt and disdain in their eyes.
