(Naruto) Me and my two tubas
67. What the hell is this?
Taisho Year??
I never thought that this year in the world would be so special. It is at the intersection of the East and the West, tradition and modernity, with new trends of thought emerging and old rules declining.
What's even more terrible is that this time there is a huge gap between my two identities, so it is very difficult to merge them in a logical way.
The first is Maki. Maki's surname is Saito, and he comes from a well-known family, with a prominent background and noble blood. However, because he could not keep up with the changes of the times, his family declined.
To put it simply, my ancestors were rich.
Just one month ago, Saito Maki's father died of illness, leaving only her and a servant girl in the dilapidated home. Two days ago, the only servant disappeared.
According to neighbors, the woman must have run away.
After all, the Taisho period was not a modern society, and the disappearance rate was not low. But the problem was that the old woman only went out to buy food and didn’t carry much money with her. And who would kidnap or kill an old woman in plain clothes?
It can only be an accident.
The Saito family has basically spent all their money to pay for the doctor's treatment. What's left is just a few dollars to buy rice. The most precious thing is a few swords handed down from the ancestors... No, if you include the sale of people, it's so expensive. Probably "Maki Saito".
If she really had the intention of harming others, what the servant girl should do is to sell all the valuable things and then run away with the money.
As for the neighbor of the Saito family, it is obvious that this person has evil intentions. He probably wants to occupy the orphan of a declining noble family, or kidnap the orphan and sell him? It's pretty much the same thing.
But this is an ordinary person. I can kill him with my eyes closed. I don’t want to deal with him in a hurry before I find the missing servant girl.
My Maki took the only remaining sword in the house, changed into clothes that were easy to move around, and went out - and then was blocked by the knife restriction order.
Alas, I didn't learn history well. I have to find a way to hide the knife.
Anyway, my first goal is to reunite Maki and Anzu.
*
While Maki was racking her brains to hide the knife, my Xing had already met the father of this world. He was very similar to my Buddha Buddha father, which made people feel familiar at once.
Xing's life experience is a little more complicated than Maki's. Xing's father was one of the first batch of students to study abroad, and her mother was a foreigner. Moreover, Xing was not the result of a legal marriage, but the product of an affair.
Although but...why does Xing still have silver hair and red eyes? What is the mixed-race effect of the tribe? !
Because the family was fairly well-off, Xing's father used his status as an international student to open a factory and soon accumulated a large amount of capital. Coupled with several successful investments through connections, he successfully made a profit within a year. Big money has become the legendary new rich, that is, the nouveau riche.
This trip to the sea was said to be for business, but in fact it was also to bring back my son who had been raised overseas. Now, the old lover no longer has any unresolved love, and the remaining love is the last bit. ??It's Xing, and this mother has been married a long time ago, so the possibility of meeting her again in the future is very high.
However, this is no hindrance. Xing’s father told the domestic publicity that he had been married to a nobleman overseas, but his wife unfortunately died of illness; Xing’s mother did not even mention it and directly concealed the love affair in his youth. , continue to marry and have children as if nothing happened.
Very free and easy.
This time, Xing's surname is no longer Saito, but "Kanroji", a surname I have never heard of.
"...Although you look good in Western skirts, my father also made you a lot of traditional clothes. Whenever -" Kanroji Xing's father sat behind the desk and shouted to me, "Sophia, what are you doing again?" Are you distracted? Listen to me carefully...ah."
Me: "...Dad, you should call me Xing,"
My dad was puzzled: "You said last time that this was the name your mother gave you. Are you used to it and don't want to change it?"
"Am I going back to my father's hometown to live?" I said, "And compared to Kanroji Sophia, Kanroji Apricot sounds better, right?"
My father was very happy to hear this: "That's right. You should do as the Romans do when you go home. When you get home, dad will take you to meet our distant cousins. They were my helpers when I was doing business. You have done me a lot of work, and in the future your cousins will inevitably come to work in our factory and help us with our business."
Human relationships... I don’t know how long I can stay in this dream.
I have become accustomed to racing against time for study opportunities in dreams. When I think about allocating time to other activities, I instinctively want to avoid it. But now, this is the Taisho period. Modern thoughts have just begun, and productivity has developed. The level is similar to that of the ninja world, so what can I learn?
"Dad probably won't remarry. You are now six years old. I will find you a husband from the Chinese ethnic group... let's find him from the declining Wu family, so that our family will be on par with the serious aristocrats." There’s a kiss.”
My father thought happily: "Anyway, I only have you. You will learn some factory and business knowledge in the future. With your guidance and the efforts of the men from the Ganlu Temple family, our family will definitely become a new rich!" "
I quickly captured a few sensitive words while distracted, and subconsciously repeated: "Factory and business..."
"Oh, Sophia... No, Xing, don't find it troublesome, and don't listen to the nonsense of those noble sisters. You have to learn these things." My father sighed and apologized.
"Isn't it just to spend money on you? But if I take the first step, you have to learn how to run a business. Your future husband will definitely not be as reliable as the men in our Ganlu Temple family, and your cousins will definitely not be as good as You are insured, and only the money in your pocket is money. Our family——"
"I understand!" I understood and immediately asked enthusiastically, "Dad, I understand your painstaking efforts, so - when will I learn factory management? What does our family do? What does the factory produce?"
Dad: "..."
Dad hesitated and said: "In general, it's light industry, daily necessities, type equipment, etc..."
light industry!
These big characters flashed across my eyes like golden light. I took a step forward and held my father's hand tightly: "Dad! Wait for me to make the Ganlu Temple family's industry bigger." powerful!"
Dad nodded blankly: "Oh...oh, oh..."

God still favors me.
When the agricultural base in Konoha was built on a preliminary scale and the commercial channels were just opened, I immediately entered the dreamland of the Taisho period.
Think about it, the productivity of Japan during the Taisho period was highly similar to that of the ninja world, and the level of development of science and technology was basically the same. The experience learned here can be reproduced immediately around Konoha, not to mention that I still have The knowledge of the Hereafter.
Yes, I discovered as early as when I was building an agricultural base that we cannot develop industry healthily just by relying on knowledge of equipment. I am not a commercial or technical talent. The only achievement I have made since I was a child is probably sanitary napkins... It is not independently developed by me.
I don't know how to build a factory, nor how to operate an assembly line. So far, I can only make tractors by hand - Chakra activation.
Chakra is actually a very magical energy, and it will be very promising when combined with industrial products, but Konoha has not yet had time to cultivate scientific and technological talents, and has zero relevant experience.
This time what is delivered to your door is an industrial factory or a light industry involving food processing, daily life, and type equipment! Moreover, the electric power facilities in this era are just in their infancy. They do not have too complex structures and are very primitive.
Nothing can be more suitable for me at this stage than this dream.
Okay coach, let’s learn this next.

As dusk fell, my Maki moved quickly along the busy streets, avoiding the bustling crowds, and headed towards the river with a clear destination.
I don’t know if it’s a coincidence or not, but the place where the Saito family’s maid disappeared is around the Kanroji family factory. Although investigating the disappearance is what I have to do, I might as well take this opportunity to let Anzu and Maki meet.
I have long discovered that people in this era are ordinary people. They have no chakra and no strange abilities. The power I bring from the ninja world will provide me with great convenience.
Therefore, in order to facilitate movement, my Maki simply changed his appearance, and the genjutsu covered the sword. At first glance, he looked like an ordinary boy with a popular face.
I'm happy with how I look now.
The street lights came on one after another, illuminating the main road brightly. My apricot was sitting in a Taisho era car, looking at the lively scene on the street through the car window covered with a gauze curtain.
The driver and bodyguard sent by my father hesitated: "Sister, the factory is closed at night, and the way from here will pass through a relatively dark road. Do you still want to see it?"
Of course you have to, otherwise how would Xing and Maki get into trouble.
"Yeah." I said to him, "I can't wait to take a look at dad's factory. Let's take a look and leave tonight without getting out of the car."
The driver obeyed my instructions and drove the car into the street next to the main road. Although electric street lights were not laid here, the ground was very flat and it was a driveable road.
As one of several port cities that opened early, the prosperity of this city is reflected in every corner of it.
It's almost time. Maki will meet Xing in two streets. At that time, I asked Maki to fall in front of the car, ensuring that I can scare the driver... At this speed, even ordinary people can't touch porcelain. He won't be hurt, not to mention the ninja's eyesight and speed.
When I was doing this calculation, the driver suddenly screamed, and then the vehicle hit something. Fortunately, the speed was not fast, and it only shook when the emergency brake was applied.
what happened? Maki was raped before she even came?
"Sister, we hit someone!" The driver opened the door anxiously, "Don't be afraid, I can handle it. He shouldn't be seriously injured. I'll take a look right now -"
The driver's voice stopped suddenly, because the moment he left the vehicle, his head was removed.
I opened the door and quickly got out of the car: "Who?!"
On the driver's body, a shadow covered the pool of blood. Although this thing still retained a human form, it had too many extra parts that it shouldn't have.
It raised what could barely be called a head and looked at my Xing: "There's also a person... the blood is thin... it smells so good..."
The author has something to say: The heroine is visiting relatives with her father: Your cousin's eldest daughter ran away from home that year. Alas, after a successful blind date, she was about to get married... but she ran away, saying she wanted to find a capable man. A good husband who protects her.
Cousin (sobbing): Free love is so harmful!
