Create a swarm technology tree in Konoha

There was a crackling sound, and the five fingers moved quickly on the abacus like a phantom.

"Well, it turns out the price has increased again. It doesn't make sense." Kakuzu looked at the account book he had reviewed strangely.

Xiaonan, who was waiting nervously, quickly asked: "Have you found what went wrong?"

"The problem has been found. It is the impact of the price increase of grain, cloth, metal, and seeds." Kakuzu pointed at the accounting book and said, "The impact of this change is still within the allowable range. Don't worry, Xiaonan."

After hearing the words of financial expert Kakuzu, Xiaonan finally felt relieved. The Akatsuki organization's finances were fine, and she had nothing to worry about.

After inviting Kakuzu to join the Akatsuki organization, he didn't take much effort to learn the details of the Akatsuki organization, and then Kakuzu felt deeply uncomfortable.

The Akatsuki organization, which grew wildly, had no concept of financial management at all. When they were short of money, they would do tasks to earn money, and when they had money, they would spend it randomly without any plan.

It's really a waste of money. Xiaonan uses the money in the order of whoever asks for it first. He has no reserve at all and doesn't distinguish between priorities.

The original Kakuzu wouldn't have any objections to this. All he cares about is making money and is indifferent to spending money.

However, after being educated by Zhou Wenming, Kakuzu's worship of money has been strengthened, but his level of awareness has also been raised to an unprecedented height. He even boasts that his pursuit of using money is as smooth and silky as art.

Under the auspices of Kakuzu, the Akatsuki organization has an accounting system, a reserve fund, an economic plan, and an evaluation standard for priorities.

So although their income has not increased much, the members of the Akatsuki organization suddenly feel that they are rich, they can get whatever they want, and they even have a lot of reserve materials that make people feel at ease when they see them.

Unknowingly, the Akatsuki organization became dependent on Kakuzu, and Kakuzu put forward some practical plans based on the knowledge he gained in Zhou Wenming.

For example, the Summer Project in the Land of Rain is a large-scale excavation of drainage channels, which can greatly alleviate the consequences of floods in the Land of Rain.

In addition, there is the sunshade plan, which is a particularly expensive plan. First, a large area of ​​​​rain shelter buildings are constructed, and then strong lights are installed to provide lighting conditions for rice and other crops, in order to obtain a generous harvest of food.

The energy for illumination comes from the hydropower station construction project attached to the Xia Plan. The hydropower station is built based on the continuous precipitation and the land difference of the Rain Country, and the majestic power supply is obtained, which is then converted into light energy to support the growth of plants.

In just one year, the appearance of the Land of Rain has undergone tremendous changes. There are three-story buildings everywhere with water on the ground. Rice is grown on the first floor, vegetables are grown on the second floor, and rice poles and vegetable roots are used on the third floor. Grow mushrooms.

The Land of Rain suddenly became a country rich in food, and people all felt extremely happy because they suddenly had enough to eat. The Yuyin Village under the control of the Akatsuki organization was also shocked that the loans it gave out were repaid within one year.

No, they should be extremely happy and wealthy, because they can also have three full meals a day.

It is difficult for people who have never experienced hunger to understand that fullness itself is a kind of supreme happiness. From the time when the Rain Hidden Village was established decades ago to the era when the demigod Hanzo ruled, the most outstanding among them Most of them were never full.

Even if they had two meals a day, they were never full.

Therefore, it is difficult for the Konohagakure ninjas who can still eat three meals a day to understand why the Amegakure ninjas would fight for demigod Hanzo. What the Amegakure ninjas want is just to get a meal of white rice every night. .

Hanzo failed. He was even grabbed and strangled to death like a chicken. Although the new leader was a mystic, he was able to effectively safeguard the interests of the Hidden Rain Village and the Country of Rain.

The Amegakure ninjas were able to get the same profits as before, or even a slight increase, so they willingly accepted the new leader and continued to live and die for his orders.

But this year the situation is very different. After half a year of food, they found that they still had food left at home. Can we eat three meals?

It was simply unbelievable. All the Amegakure ninjas were delighted and their morale was greatly boosted. The emotions of the lower-level ninjas were quickly transmitted to the upper levels. Both Nagato and Konan were very happy, but they also developed a lot of dependence.

At least Xiaonan kept everything he said to Jiaodu in mind and followed it as a guideline. Therefore, there was a large deficit in the accounts this time, which made Xiaonan frightened and uneasy.

She didn't feel relieved until Jiao Jiao, who came back from the hunt, read the account book and reviewed the accounts and said there was no problem.

Xiaonan left with peace of mind, but Kakuzu couldn't help but care about the reasons behind this deficit. Food, cloth, metal, and seeds included the three elements of war. Is there any force preparing for war?

Kakuzu began to carefully compare each account, summarize the changing patterns, and find the reasons for the rise in prices.

After a day and night of inspections, Kakuzu finally determined the reason. The two major sources of goods in the Ninja World International Trading Market, the Country of Tea and the Country of Water, suddenly tightened the export of materials, and even the two of them suddenly became buyers.

No need to ask, this was Zhou Wenming's unified action. Jiaodu immediately asked the reason in the sea of ​​​​spirits, and then he realized that in the star system half a light-year away, a war had broken out.

Zhou Wenming began to collect organic matter and metals for this purpose. Although the output of these two countries was not large, Aburame Tetsumaru ordered the output of Water Country and New Tea to be drained, so that they suddenly needed to import.

There is no way around this. War is such an extreme fight. Both sides must use their last strength, because the winner will gain all the benefits.

If you can't give it your all, if you fall short and lose everything, then you will regret it endlessly.

Although Zhou Wenming, who launched the offensive, is slightly better strategically, because at least they will not lose their hometown, if they really lose, it will be an unbearable catastrophic consequence.

Materials and stuff don't matter, but the eight descendants and one hundred and ten incarnations are a huge loss.

As Aburame Tetsumaru becomes more powerful and the insect swarm state condenses day by day, the strength of his soul becomes more and more exaggerated, making it increasingly difficult for the separated shadow clone to have a personality.

Even if the shadow clone without personality successfully possesses the clone, it will not become an incarnation. Therefore, although Aburame Tetsumaru's soul power is getting stronger and stronger, the speed of producing incarnations is getting slower and slower.

If more than a hundred incarnations were lost, Aburame Tetsumaru would not be able to replenish them for two to three years.

What's even more serious is the loss of eight descendants. Zhou Wenming currently has only twenty-four descendants including Hatake Sakumo, Kakuzu, and Uchiha Sanae. You can imagine what a huge loss this is.

The addition of descendants is based on appearance, and it is impossible to calculate the speed. For five years, Zhou Wenming did not obtain an descendant.

The blank period was so terrifying that it forced Aburame Tetsumaru to use his imagination and try to turn the ninja world into a back garden for traveling and cultivate the growth of the avatar.

The consequences were so serious that Aburame Tetsumaru and the others could only do their best.

Therefore, there were suddenly two big sellers missing and two big buyers added to the Ninja World market. It was inevitable that the price of materials would rise.

Kakuzu curled his lips and forgot about the matter. This year, the Rain Country has achieved self-sufficiency in food, and the textile industry is also growing rapidly, with little impact.

Rising commodity prices are a good thing for some countries, such as the Land of Fire, the Land of Thunder, and the Land of Fields. The incomes of these countries have been rising steadily, and they have a lot of money in their hands.

But there are also some countries that are unlucky, such as the Iron Country. Without cheap and high-quality iron ingots, their cost of producing weapons has increased a lot. However, arms sales have been poor in recent years, making life a bit difficult.

But what is even worse is the Country of Wind. They lived a comfortable life for two years when prices fell, but Feng Ying did not take the opportunity to make any changes, nor did he accumulate supplies or anything.

So when prices suddenly rose, Fengying was dumbfounded, and even the entire Kingdom of Wind was a little panicked. It turned out that in the past two years, many landowners disliked the cheapness of food, so they replanted precious land with dates, tobacco and other things.

Although oil and tobacco are more expensive than food, the Kingdom of Wind is different. As soon as the international price of food rises, the price of food in the Kingdom of Wind will skyrocket, easily surpassing the price of these luxury goods.

This time, the people in the Land of the Wind became even more panicked. They smelled the familiar atmosphere of chaos. All those who could afford it began to hoard supplies, and the prices of various daily necessities skyrocketed.

This price turmoil was very big and soon caused turmoil. Sand bandit gangs appeared everywhere as if they were emerging from the sand.

These thugs attacked the oasis everywhere. At first, they just robbed food and money, but soon turned into murder and arson. Even the capital of the Kingdom of Wind was not in peace.

The situation was so bad that the Daimyo of the Wind had no choice but to lower his head and send a large amount of money to Sunagakure Village, and then issued many tasks to the Kazekage.

In the chaos, each oases also sent mission requests for their own safety. Sunagakure ninjas no longer have to do those low-paying coolie missions. The new missions are to beat ordinary people's sand pirates without any risk. And the income is not low.

The Kingdom of Wind has become a mess, but the life of Sand Ninja suddenly becomes easier. The mood of everyone in Sand Hidden Village is actually a bit complicated.

However, the interests of Sunagakure Village are not equal to the interests of the ninjas of Sunagakure Village. Life is easy for the ninjas, but life is not easy for many bigwigs of Sunagakure Village.

These people are a bit like the Inoka Butterfly family of Konoha Village. They have various industries all over the Kingdom of Wind. They suffered huge losses in this turmoil, and many oases were severely damaged. They will not be able to do anything next year. After recovery, the loss is even more severe.

The Country of Wind is actually a small country, and the profit plate is really not big enough. The losses of the powerful have just been passed on downwards, and there has been such a serious backlash, and it really can't be done anymore.

The powerful people in the Kingdom of Wind realized that they needed to seek benefits from outside.

In terms of interests, the nobles and daimyo of the Kingdom of Wind and the ninja families of Sunagakure Village are actually allies with related interests. Therefore, after the Sand Bandits were suppressed by the Sand Ninjas, Sunagakure Village quickly held a meeting about the war. Meeting.

"War?" Chiyo sneered as soon as he heard this topic and stood up with his younger brother Ebizo, "Is Sunagakure Village still capable of carrying out a war? The daimyo cut off our money and made Sunagakure Village unable to compete in the Joint Chunin Examination. He gave us a sum of money and wanted us to start a war, what was he thinking?"

Chiyo left her seat and walked out. Halfway there, she looked at a group of middle-aged and elderly people sitting here. They were all the heads of the ninja family in Sunagakure Village. She snorted coldly: "I know what is going on in your heads. But after two wars, haven’t you figured it out yet? War costs money!”

"Elder Chiyo, don't be anxious, listen to Kazekage-sama's plan." An equally old man quickly stood up and called Chiyo. Whether this person agrees or not will directly affect the attitudes of many people, but she cannot be allowed to do so. Just went back.

The Fourth Kazekage was about to suffer internal injuries due to anger at this time, but Chiyo was the competitor of the Third Kazekage, and he could not be any older.

Chiyo and Ebizo were ruthless people who fought two wars. The leaders of the puppet masters, they even lost their sons and grandsons for the old lady of Sunagakure Village, and now they have become carefree elders.

A mere Fourth Generation Kazekage, the war was not fought well and the village management was a mess. He really had no qualifications to point fingers at the elders Chiyo.

Seeing Chiyo looking at him, Kazekage quickly said: "Elder Chiyo, the target I chose this time is the country of tea."

"The country of tea...isn't that a poor place?"

Hearing Kazekage's words, Chiyo stopped. She even turned around and walked back to her seat, "Why did you choose this poor place? It's not hard to conquer, but what's the gain?"

Chiyo is, after all, a ninja from Sand Hidden Village in the Land of Wind. Robbery is their nature. The only lesson she learned in the war is not to fight an enemy that cannot be defeated, but not to start a war.

As soon as Chiyo's question came out, everyone present laughed.

Zhuo Dun Ye Cang explained to Chiyo: "Elder Chiyo doesn't care about worldly affairs, so he doesn't know that the country of tea has become rich in recent years. They export a large amount of grain, cloth, and many fresh gadgets, such as your hand. lacquer tea cup.”

When Chiyo heard this, he looked at the cup he had loved so much this year, his eyes sparkling.

"Being able to export food means that the country of tea has become a wealthy country. It is really worth fighting a war."

The Fourth Kazekage nodded and said: "Yes, there is no ninja village in the Kingdom of Tea, nor any decent ninja family, nor have I even heard of any powerful ninjas. This war will be an extremely easy operation. "

The family patriarchs burst out laughing, and they exchanged proud looks with each other, but Feng Ying's next words changed their moods drastically.

The Fourth Kazekage said: "The war is too simple. Neither Ye Cang nor I will participate this time. Who among you will lead the expedition?"

The eyes of several qualified jounin among the family patriarchs became enthusiastic, and several other senior jounin also became eager to try.

A war that must be won, a goal of wealth, what a huge benefit it is. I never expected that Lord Kazekage would be able to give away the biggest share of the benefit. This needs to be fought for.

Chiyo was also stunned, but then he smiled. The Fourth Kazekage finally matured. When he let go, this group of powerful factions changed from allies who united to force him to start a war to competing enemies in an instant.

The real decision-making power is still in the hands of Feng Ying. As long as the operation is good, some of these clan leaders will inevitably fall to Feng Ying's camp.

There is finally hope for Sunagakure Village.
