Guard members who stay in Konoha

Chapter 137 29, Planning for Investment Promotion

After entering the office, I saw a startling scene: Uchiha Nobusuke, Uchiha Toshi and Uchiha Kaoru were all sitting extremely tired, with a large number of documents on the table in front of them, it felt like It's like an office worker who has worked all night.

"Hey, why are you so depressed?" Tan walked in quickly, looked at everyone's expressions, and said.

"Ah, Dan, you're back." Uchiha Kaoru seemed to be in good spirits, at least not like the other two who were either lying on the table or leaning on the back of the chair, half asleep and half awake.

"Well, long time no see, everyone." Bomb looked around, "Where's Meiling?"

"Uh, it should be to help us get some refreshing tea." Kaoru Uchiha thought for a while before replying.

"Is there a lot of work recently? Although there are three people missing, I have calculated it carefully. Under normal circumstances, it wouldn't be like this?" Bomb was a little surprised.

"Because it's not a normal situation. Without you, our mediation work here will not be as smooth as it used to be, and we have to pay more energy to deal with it." Uchiha Kaoru shook his head, "Then, because the security department The departure of some stubborn old guys, Captain Ruixi put a lot of punches, and Captain Fuyue didn't stop him much, so the team's measures were very smooth, but it also led to an increase in the workload here, and the team lacked three people , the burden is naturally heavy."

"So that's how it is." Hearing this, I couldn't help but feel a little guilty, "I'm sorry, because I took two people away, and it turned out..."

"Forget it, at least I can persist now. When it is really necessary, please ask Captain Mizuki to transfer one or two people from other places." Kaoru Uchiha smiled, "Speaking of which, how is the situation on your side?"

"It's okay." Tan said, "I didn't encounter any particularly troublesome enemies. Besides, before the ninja war really started, I shouldn't encounter any powerful opponents."

Renegade ninjas in the outside world cannot be said to be powerful, such as Kadotsu, but rebel ninjas of this strength are unlikely to accept employment from other countries, unless they are really forced by life and can put down face, In this way, there are very few defected ninjas who can be satisfied, or even none.

"The status should have returned. I used to receive actual combat training in the security department. After this trip, compared with other classes, it is basically not too far behind. When entering the battlefield, there is no disadvantage." Kaoru Uchiha said.

"Well, the rest depends on the performance on the battlefield."

Uchiha Shinsuke and Uchiha Min suddenly woke up from the sound of the two talking, and turned their heads to look at it quickly, but seeing it was the same thing, they immediately beamed with joy.

"Ah... Long time no see, now." Uchiha Shinsuke yawned, and staggered over to put his hands on his shoulders, "Really, after you left with An and Mao, we are busy here. gone."

"I've heard Captain Xun say this before, so I don't need to repeat it again."

"That's good." Nobusuke Uchiha rubbed his eyes and complained, "Ah, so many paperwork needs to be dealt with, and even the inspection is a bit too busy. To be honest, we should arrange some civil servants."

"We don't have so many people here, Shinsuke." Kaoru Uchiha said helplessly, "Although we have recruited people who were not qualified to enter the security department and let them take up civilian positions, this is not too much. Our family has always Emphasis on strength, and many of those people want to turn the tables and join the regular ninja army.”

"If only it were so easy." Uchiha Shinsuke said, "Civil work is considered a relatively easy job. Wouldn't it be safer for them to do this than on the battlefield?"

"Some people don't give up so easily."

"Even if there is, the Ministry doesn't have that much money to hire." The taciturn Uchiha Min said slowly, the problem he mentioned is also a key point that affects the recruitment of the Security Department, because those people don't have time to accept that kind of private entrustment , his salary can only be paid by the Ministry of Security.Once too many people are introduced, even if such ninja salaries are not many, it will be a considerable burden for the security department.

"You can think of a way. People always come up with the way." After hearing Uchiha Toshi's words, he couldn't help but say that it seemed that the problem of funding existed in his previous life. Yes, the ninja village is not as big as the country.

The economy of Konoha Ninja Village is basically maintained in a self-sufficient range. Generally, it can be maintained for a considerable period of time under peaceful conditions. However, after entering a state of war, the consumption of a large amount of funds cannot be afforded by a village, and has to rely on the daimyo. state finances.

This is why the ninja village must have a harmonious relationship with the country. Because of the lack of ideological foundation and governance and management capabilities, the ninja village cannot replace the national nobles.In this case, to maintain the good development of both parties, we can only cooperate with each other. Once the two parties have conflicts, it is easy to lose both sides.

In the original work, when there was a financial conflict between the country of the wind and the sand ninja village, the sand ninja village was still rational, and did not choose to quarrel with the daimyo, but secretly cooperated with Orochimaru to carry out the Konoha collapse plan, intending to trigger a war, so it was reasonable I got financial support, but I didn't expect to be tricked by Orochimaru.

The representative of irrationality is the country of water. After the fourth generation of Mizukage was brought under control, the blood mist policy was implemented to an unprecedented level, cruelly persecuting the blood-successor limit family in his own village, and even began to fight with daimyo nobles.

Although speaking from the perspective of progress, sooner or later there will be a fight with the daimyo nobles, but under the influence of Uchiha Obito, Kirigakure Ninja Village will only adopt pure suppression and destruction methods. Chaos, if it weren't for the country of water to isolate the mainland and block the news, I'm afraid that other countries that got the news-the country of thunder-would have destroyed Kirigakure Ninja Village, so how can we wait until Terumi Mei ascends the throne and revives.

Therefore, under normal circumstances, the funds of the Ninja Village can be said to be quite limited. Excluding the pensions for the ninjas who died in battle, some livelihood arrangements, and military expenses, the amount that can be given to the departments in the village is less than half—and except for the Ministry of Education Except for the Ministry of Defense, the Ministry of Security, and the Ministry of Administration, everything else is related to the needs of external wars, so more financial support is provided on weekdays.

Allocated one by one in this way, the share of the security department's funds belongs to the relatively small category, and Konoha's high-level executives are also confident here: First, the security department does not have to bear military responsibilities when it is not necessary, and it ranks among the security department and the medical department. [-]. It is a matter of course behind the intelligence department; second, the Uchiha family gave a large amount of land when they built the village, and it is no problem to support the whole family, so it is not impossible for the family to subsidize the security department, because the security department is managed by Uchiha One family controls it.

Therefore, if too many people are really recruited, the funds of the security department will not be able to support it, unless they ask the village for help, but the village also has practical factors to consider, and it is impossible to give the security department a lot of extra funds.

"Oh, then, do you have any ideas?" Kaoru Uchiha asked curiously.

"Why is the village unwilling to give more funds? Because other departments have higher priority in terms of responsibilities, and the village has no extra funds." Tan took out the manuscript on his body, "You should know that it was written by Meiling, and I intend to deliver it to Yu If the bookstore in the village publishes and sells it well, can the village’s tax on the storefront be raised?”

As if there was a flash of inspiration, Uchiha Kaoru suddenly realized: "So that's the case. If the village gets more funds, it can naturally be given to the Security Department."

"However, just for a manuscript, can the bookstore really pay a lot of taxes?" Uchiha Nobusuke asked.

"Who says it's just a bookstore? It's just an example." Tan said jokingly, "It's impossible to pay a lot of taxes by relying on the bookstore alone. From this, it is the right way to help the village to strengthen its economy. The village's economy has improved. Are you afraid that there will be no funds to give to the Security Department?"

"Uh, how should our security department assist?" Toshi Uchiha didn't understand.

"To make businessmen from other places willing to settle in the village, we have to carefully consider what kind of help our security department can give." Bomb replied, "A good security environment, a good business environment, protection The legal interests of the industry, not to be subjected to illegal treatment... Our security department can do a lot, and to do this, not only our security department is needed, but the village is mainly led. When the village's economy improves, the security department and the village There is a good cooperative relationship, and the security department is everywhere in the process of protecting local businessmen, so the village still has the nerve to not give funds? If it doesn’t pay under this situation, then it can’t be said.”

Kaoru Uchiha, Shinsuke Uchiha, and Toshi Uchiha couldn't help nodding their heads again and again after hearing this. They felt that it made sense. If the security department could help the village strengthen its economy, the village would be less dependent on daimyo when the economy improved. , the village has no reason to deny it.

More importantly, if this can be done smoothly, it will not only solve the financial problem, but also the rigid relationship with the village. In the process of cooperation, the relationship between each other will gradually become harmonious. The interests of the department will be great!
"However, this is not so easy to do. I don't know if some people in the security department will agree."

"They promised not to say anything else, the main thing is to do it, just like what we did in the past, isn't the situation in the security department improving slowly?" Tan smiled.

"What are you going to do? Ah! Bo, you're back!" At this moment, Uchiha Mirei came in with her brewed tea, just in time to hear what Bo said, first asked curiously, and then saw the one who spoke After the man played the ball, he immediately cried out in joy.

"Some things related to the future of the police department, Meiling, you can also learn about them. When the time comes to attract investment, the propagandists will also be able to play a big role." Bomb greeted Uchiha Meiling. "Meiling can help now. This manuscript is very good. I plan to give it to the bookstore. Is it okay?"

"That will be seen by many people..." Although it was mentioned before that it might be published, Uchiha Mirei was still a little embarrassed and asked, "Is it really good-looking?"

"Really, have you all seen it?" Bomb looked at the other three, who nodded quickly, expressing that it was indeed very good-looking.

Seeing this, Uchiha Mirei was shy for a while, then nodded, saying that there is no problem sending it to the bookstore for publication, and she agreed.

"Okay. Captain Xun, I'll trouble you to look for it when the time comes. It must be of decent character."

"No problem, just leave it to me." After hearing about the idea of ​​attracting investment, Uchiha Kaoru's evaluation of Dan became higher and higher. He picked up the tea that Uchiha Mirei had brewed and drank it in one breath, and suddenly felt refreshed. Refreshing.

"I'll tell my mother about it. You can start the preliminary planning first. When the actual implementation starts, it should be after the war is over. Under the circumstances of the war, it is impossible to carry out such a plan." Tan wryly smiled and shook Shake your head.

"Although it is said that the war will come soon, I really don't know when it will appear. It is really uncomfortable to be tensed all the time like this." Uchiha Nobusuke said.

"It should be soon." I remember the prologue of the third Ninja World War because the third Kazekage of the sand hidden ninja village was secretly assassinated by the scorpion and then taken away. The mysterious disappearance of the third Kazekage immediately caused panic in the sand hidden ninja village , After many investigations, no trace was found.

It's a pity that the original work did not specify when the third Kazekage was assassinated. It can be confirmed that it was in this year, and the specific month and day are unknown. In this world, it can affect Konoha Ninja Village, but it is impossible to affect Sand Yin Ninja Village over there.

So, when will the scorpion make a move?
If Xie heard Tan's inner voice now, then he would probably be very happy to say: It's now.

The third Kazekage is the most powerful one since the establishment of the sand hidden ninja village. Although the current age and strength have declined, he is still the top grade in the ninja world. The young scorpion will definitely not be able to defeat him in a head-on fight. .

However, the original fighting method of a ninja is assassination, and it has never been said that it is necessary to fight in an upright manner. The highest level of being a ninja is to be able to eliminate the enemy silently.

From the moment he decided to assassinate the third Kazekage, Scorpion was honing his skills and getting ready, waiting for an opportunity, an opportunity to assassinate Kazekage, a time that would allow him to survive the assassination. It's time to safely leave Sand Hidden Ninja Village.

Now, that time has come.

On this night, Xie left home and went to his target location. The long night was long, and when the dawn came to Shayin Ninja Village, the haze came—the wind shadow disappeared.
