I'm in Naruto and start as Zhongli!

"What can be done?" The general of the Iron Kingdom suddenly became more energetic. Is there any good way to help the Iron Kingdom overcome this difficulty?

"Our current situation is that we are short of funds, so we only need to be able to raise money, such as borrowing money from other countries to last the first year, and repay it in subsequent installments over several years."

The Minister of Finance swore that this matter was the result he came to after thinking about it for a long time.

It is normal for villages and countries to borrow money from each other. The Iron Kingdom has also borrowed money from other countries before. If it wants to borrow money from other countries at this time, it should not be very difficult.

"Borrowing? So who can we borrow from now?" The general of the Iron Country looked at the Finance Minister with some confusion.

"These are the ones I selected and can be used as loan recipients. Take a look." The Finance Minister took out a document and handed it to the general of the Iron Country.

"Sunagakure Village... Iwagakure Village... Konoha Village... and Sound Ninja Village?" The general of the Iron Country looked at the list in his hand. Except for Kumogakure Village and Kirigakure Village, the rest Several powerful villages are written on it.

"Yes, Yunyin Village itself has been severely weakened, and Kirigakure Village has always been closed to the outside world. In fact, there is not much communication with our Iron Kingdom."

"But Sunagakure Village is actually not particularly recommended. After all, Sunagakure Village itself has little money. Iwagakure Village and Konoha Village have a higher probability of borrowing money, and there is Sound Ninja Village... Now Sound Ninja The village here can be said to be extremely rich."

The Finance Minister shared his analysis.

"But if this method is to borrow money..." In the final analysis, the general of the Iron Kingdom still does not want to use this embarrassing method to raise funds.

"However, other than this method, we have no way to pay the Oto Ninja Village in six months." The Finance Minister said bluntly.

"What if... we robbed the money from the Sound Ninja Village?" Suddenly, a senior official from the Iron Country said directly.

As soon as he heard this method, the Iron Kingdom's general's eyes immediately lit up. Why does this sound like a very good method?

"Although that is what I said, but... now the whole world knows that our business in the Kingdom of Iron was built on the basis of Sound Ninja Village, and now Sound Ninja Village is the sixth largest Ninja Village. In terms of overall strength..."

Soon, the Finance Minister directly poured a bucket of cold water on the top brass of the Iron Country, and when they heard about the strength, they all fell silent.

You know, six months ago, the Sound Ninja Village achieved its current status in front of them. This was not an easy opponent to trap, but a ferocious beast that was eyeing them eagerly.

"Moreover, we have a contract signed between us. If we breach the contract, the factories and other things we build now will belong to the Sound Ninja Village..."

The Minister of Finance took out the contract signed with the Oto Ninja Village at that time and opened the section on the conditions for breach of contract.

"So they are waiting for us here..." The general of the Kingdom of Iron lowered his head in disappointment. Why did he feel like he was deceived?

"However, if we get through this year, we will definitely have a better and better feeling about the follow-up, so now, we either need to borrow money or delay the payment of raw material suppliers."

The Minister of Finance said bluntly that if they had been able to face up to their report at that time, the Iron Country would not be in this situation now.

"I understand, the payment from the raw material supplier cannot be delayed. We should... talk to other villages about borrowing money first." The general of the Iron Kingdom said after pondering for a moment.

After all, the current conflict of interests with the Sound Ninja Village would be better if there weren't so many borrowings, right?

"Yes, then I will discuss it with Sunagakure Village and Konoha Village first." The Finance Minister stood up and left the meeting room. The relationship between these two villages and the Iron Kingdom is relatively good.

I just don’t know how big an appetite Uchiha Fugaku or Rasa has?

"Okay, everyone hurry up and follow the production. From now on, we must ensure that our goods can be shipped out and sold smoothly." The general of the Iron Country said with a gloomy face, and then got up and walked to the factory. go.

The other senior officials of the Iron Kingdom also stood up and followed suit.

Now, the only thing the Iron Country can hold on to is the thigh of its own domestic forge.

Moreover, this matter cannot be postponed, and the orders on hand must be delivered quickly, otherwise it will be difficult to carry out capital turnover.

...

...

"Fufufu, it seems that this matter is as expected by the boss Chenli? Iron Kingdom is already looking for external funds." In the audio and video office, Orochimaru was looking at Chenli with a playful expression.

"This is the inevitable way, but

Lord Orochimaru, guess what else the Kingdom of Iron will do next? "Chen Li smiled mysteriously, and then looked at Orochimaru.

"According to this approach, the news we have received so far is that Rosa has directly rejected the Iron Kingdom due to the previous incident. However, Fugaku is still in discussions, but I estimate that he will eventually lend a sum of money to the Iron Kingdom. , of course the interest involved is not that simple.”

Orochimaru thought for a moment, and then said slowly.

"Konoha Village will definitely borrow money for its own reputation. Of course, the Iron Kingdom will definitely not feel comfortable, but Iwagakure Village and Kumogakure Village are not so easy to talk to. I guess neither of them will take action. "

Kakuzu took over the conversation, and this result was almost within their expectations.

"Then Iron Kingdom, which has directly raised the first payment, logically speaking, is not enough to pay our 80% commission. Then Iron Kingdom has only two ways to go." Chenli said confidently arrive.

"The first is to borrow money from us, and the second is to reduce the strength of the finished product to reduce the cost. Orochimaru-sama, which path do you think the Iron Kingdom will take?" Kakuzu smiled, and then took up the topic and asked the question. Orochimaru.

"I think... they might take the second option?" Orochimaru is very good at scientific research, but he is not so sensitive to such financial matters.

After all, Kakuzu is in control of financial matters, and he still has a high level of trust in Kakuzu Orochimaru.

Chapter 393: Anxious Iron Kingdom General

"No, no, no, the Iron Kingdom has no plans to reach this point yet. After all, they also want to maintain their reputation. They don't want to get there so quickly by simply ruining their reputation. This step.”

Chenli said confidently that this was his most basic judgment about the Iron Kingdom.

"Do you think they will come to us for a loan as soon as possible?" Orochimaru looked at Chenli and Kakuzu in surprise.

"It will definitely happen. After all, at this time, it would be better to be able to restart funds on the condition of borrowing money than to have the credit damaged and then become even more miserable." Kakuzu said lightly.

"But if we borrow money, the generals of the Iron Kingdom will also feel very uncomfortable, right?" Orochimaru laughed, and he could already imagine the gnashing of teeth of the generals of the Iron Kingdom.

"Of course I will, but it took me six months to think of this. After all, I overestimated them?" Chen Li said indifferently. He originally thought that the Kingdom of Iron would open in four months at most. The long road to borrowing money.

Unexpectedly, it has been six months since this started.

"According to the response from the spies in the Iron Kingdom, the Finance Minister of the Iron Kingdom had reported this matter before, but it was the time when the proofing was successful, so the Iron Kingdom did not pay attention to it."

Kakuzu picked up a report, which contained information on the current situation in the Iron Kingdom.

Of course, the Sound Ninja Village also has special spies who enter the Kingdom of Iron to conduct investigations. This has become a common practice.

"It seems that it is still a little slow, but the next things are still in our plan. Jiaodu, are there no problems with our funds here?" Chenli looked at Jiaodu with a smile.

"Hmph, do you think I'm as good as the Finance Minister of the Iron Country? When have I ever fallen behind on the financial reports of the past few years?" Kakuzu said proudly. On this point, he has no regard for the Sound Ninja Village. The finances are completely planned.

The current Sound Ninja Village is already the third in terms of financial reserves after Iwagakure Village and Konoha Village. You must know that the Sound Ninja Village has only developed in the past few years.

"That's fine, then I'll feel relieved." Chen Li smiled mysteriously.

"So, when the general of the Iron Kingdom comes to borrow money, do you want to borrow it?" Orochimaru looked at the two people curiously. Why did he feel like a novice when it came to financial knowledge?

"Borrow, of course you have to borrow, and the interest rate can't be too high, just follow the normal level." Chenli smiled slightly, and then looked in the direction of Jiaodu.

"Of course, we won't break the rules, right? Boss Chenli." Jiaodu immediately knew what Chenli meant and immediately agreed.

"Of course, we won't do anything that violates the rules. After all, if the interest rate exceeds the normal interest rate too much, we will be the ones who are unreasonable." Chen Li smiled slightly, then stood up and looked out the window.

At this time, two small black spots were approaching from a distance, and soon arrived at the door of the audio and video office.

"Master Yin Ying, Master Kakuzu, Master Chenli." Two ninjas wearing sound-nin forehead protectors knelt down on one knee and said respectfully.

"What's going on?" Orochimaru saw someone coming and quickly posed. Well, he couldn't be as casual as before in front of his subordinates.

"There is a letter from the Iron Kingdom. It is stamped by the general of the Iron Kingdom." One of the Sound Ninja handed over a letter.

"Okay, put it here." Orochimaru glanced at Chenli and Kakuzu, and then said to the sound ninja.

"Yes, Yin Ying-sama." Yin Nin stood up and placed the letter on Orochimaru's desk, and then left Yin Ying's office in a flash.

Afterwards, Orochimaru picked up the letter on the table, looked at the signature of the general of the Kingdom of Iron above, and then gently tore off a corner and took out the letter inside.

The letter was picked up.

"How is it?" Chenli stood up and came behind Orochimaru, looking at the letter in Orochimaru's hand.

"Sure enough, it's exactly what you two said. This is a letter requesting a loan." A strange smile appeared on Orochimaru's lips. Sure enough, this was the same as what Chenli and Kakuzu said.

Things are really going in this direction.

"Hehe, I just said that my idea is definitely not wrong." Chenli smiled and took the letter from Orochimaru.

"Kakuzu, what do you think of this amount?" Chenli looked at it carefully and gave it to Kakuzu.

"It's similar to the amount I predicted before. It seems that they still have a certain understanding of the funds they lack." Kakuzu just glanced at it and understood the meaning.

"Then respond to them according to the interest rate just discussed?" Orochimaru licked his lips and said.

"There's no rush. It's too fast to reply directly now. Let's wait for a few days before replying." Chenli was not in a hurry at all. He couldn't be in a hurry at this time. He still had to show off the general of the Kingdom of Iron and let him wait for a while. They can gain greater trust when they are anxious.

"It's true, Boss Chenli, you are worthy of being the boss."

...

...

"Is there no reply from the Sound Ninja Village yet?" the general of the Kingdom of Iron asked while pacing in his office.

They borrowed a sum of money from the Leaf Village. Although it wasn't much, it could last for a while.

But if the Sound Ninja Village doesn't borrow money, then they will still have a big gap.

"General, there's no reply yet, how about... I'll push you again?" the Finance Minister said weakly. In fact, it's not that they haven't pushed you these past few days, but they just haven't responded.

"No, let's do this. Get ready and I'll go there in person." The general of the Iron Kingdom finally lost his temper. The Sound Ninja Village can delay it, but the financial situation of their Iron Kingdom cannot delay it. At this time, it is still You need to be more proactive.

"Sir General, do you want to go to the Sound Ninja Village in person?" It was obvious that the Finance Minister was still a little surprised by the decision of the General of the Iron Country.

"Otherwise, can you implement this matter for me as soon as possible?" It is obvious that the general of the Iron Country is already a little resentful.

"I...I understand, let's make arrangements now." The Finance Minister was speechless by the Iron Kingdom's general. After a moment of silence, he could only nod in agreement.

"I hope this time there will be a good result..." The iron country's general's eyes were solemn. Now it can be said that the iron country's life and death have come to an end! !

Chapter 394: You only have two choices

Sound Ninja Village, in the sound and video office.

One day later, the general of the Iron Country came to the Sound Ninja Village with the Minister of Finance.

"General, why are you here in person?" Orochimaru sat on a chair and looked at the General of the Iron Kingdom and the Finance Minister of the Iron Kingdom who had been welcomed in.

"Your Excellency Orochimaru, have you received the letter I sent you a few days ago?" the general from the Kingdom of Iron said with a smile.

"Letter? What letter?" The smile on Orochimaru's face stopped for a moment, and he turned to look at the ANBU members of the Ninja Village with a strong accent.

"Master Yin Yin, you have been doing research in the research room before, so the letter has not been given to you yet. This is a letter." The ANBU of Yin Ninja Village immediately understood after hearing this, and then sent the general of the Iron Country The letter was brought up as it was.

Of course, the traces of being opened before have been resealed, and it looks like it has never been opened.

Seeing the actions of the ANBU of the Oto Ninja Village, the General of the Iron Kingdom almost broke his teeth. You have never given such an important letter to Orochimaru?

Such an urgent matter, but still being so slack, made the generals of the Iron Kingdom feel very unhappy.

"Why didn't you give me such an important thing right away?" Orochimaru pretended to be very angry, and then took the letter over forcefully.

"I'm sorry, Yin Ying-sama, please be careful next time!" The ANBU of Yin Ninja Village received the notice long ago, and quickly said with flawless acting skills, and then exited the Yin Ying office.

"I'm sorry, General, you also know that our Sound Ninja Village has not been established for a long time, and some procedures have not been completely sorted out." Orochimaru said with a smile.

"It's okay, okay, now you can take a good look at the content of the letter, and we will talk after reading it." The general of the Kingdom of Iron said with a smile. No matter how unhappy he was, he could only apologize at this time.

After all, they are here to ask for help, so naturally they have to lower their posture.

"No problem, I'll take a look first." Orochimaru smiled softly, then opened the letter and read it. However, while reading, the general of the Iron Country was still looking at Orochimaru's expression.

When Orochimaru frowned slightly, the Iron Country general's heart skipped a beat. Orochimaru's performance made him feel uneasy.

Could it be that... we might hit a snag here?

After all, this matter is of vital importance to the Iron Kingdom.

"Lord Orochimaru, is this...is there a problem?" the Iron Country general said with some anxiety.

"this

"... General, you also know that our Oto Ninja Village is currently undergoing various constructions, and at this time, the money aspect is still a bit..." Orochimaru said with a smile.

"But I hope your village can help. You also know that this is a very important matter for us in the Iron Kingdom." Indeed, the general of the Iron Kingdom did not believe a word of what Orochimaru said.

Is the Sound Ninja Village short of money? What kind of international joke are you kidding?

Who doesn't know that the current income of the Sound Ninja Village can be said to be unmatched by anyone in the past. After all, the Sound Ninja Village controls more than 90% of the world's ninja tool sales.

This is why the Kingdom of Iron must continue this cooperation with the Sound Ninja Village. In fact, they already have some clues on the side of the Kingdom of Iron.

If you can put this business in your own Iron Kingdom, even if you only get a part of it, then it will be a return to the right path for the Iron Kingdom.

Not to mention returning to its heyday, at least it will not be in the same situation as now where it is unable to make ends meet and has been running deficits for consecutive years.

"However, you also know the situation in our Sound Ninja Village. We are currently in the research and development stage of the next project. As you just heard, I have not been in this office for several days and have been in the research room. This also means that Our research and development is entering a new stage, and as you know, what is needed most for research and development is money."

Orochimaru is not going to jump into the pit of the Iron Kingdom at all. Not only will he be miserable at this time, but he will be able to get more benefits from the Iron Kingdom.
