Labor camp?

This is not the first time Kakashi has heard this name.

He was very curious and couldn't help but ask his senior Masang a second time.

"Labor camp..."

Ma Sang was obviously very taboo when it came to mentioning this name, and seemed unwilling to talk more about it.

"Anyway, just stay away from those crazy people."

After he finished speaking, he hurriedly got off the carriage and started lining up.

The carriage did not enter the city.

Outside the new gate of Konoha, there are many small houses.

Most of them are temporary wooden houses, which look very simple.

There is a row of wooden houses facing the street, with various snacks, fruits, and various small commodities placed at the door.

A group of small traders saw the people on the carriage coming down and immediately started shouting.

"Come and see, fresh apples and pears only cost a copper plate!"

"It's a big kite two people high. Don't miss it when you pass by. You can take away the 30 copper coins."

"Copper plate?"

Kakashi asked suspiciously.

"Hey, you don't know something about this. There is a separate bank in Konoha New City. The bank is responsible for issuing currency. The lowest unit is a copper plate. One copper plate is equivalent to 10 taels. On top of the copper plate, there are silver coins and gold coins. One silver coin It’s equivalent to 1000 copper plates, which is 1 taels. One gold coin is equivalent to 10 taels, which is 10 silver coins.”

Masang explained while greeting the people guarding the city.

The ninja responsible for guarding the city gate obviously knew Ma Sang. After seeing Ma Sang, a smile suddenly appeared on his face.

"Dear Ma Sang, have you received big business again this time?"

"No, no, it's just a small business."

There was a reserved smile on Masang's face.

But anyone with a discerning eye can see that he is very proud of himself now.

"Who is this?"

Looking at Kakashi following Masan, the ninja guarding the door frowned and asked.

For such strange faces, even if they are children, the ninja guarding the door is very concerned.

There is a basic ninjutsu among ninjas called transformation.

After practicing, you can become any adult or child.

If you are proficient enough, it is not difficult to transform into animals or plants.

Therefore, the ninja who is responsible for guarding the gates of Konoha New City will never ignore the dangers that may be hidden in the other party just because of his young age.

"This is also a ninja from our Konoha Village. Don't look at his young age, but he is very capable. He just passed the Chunin Exam..."

While Masang was introducing him eloquently, the ninja responsible for guarding the door opened his eyes in disbelief.

"A newly promoted chuunin, at this age! Such a look! Could it be that he is the legendary Hatake Kakashi?"

"Yes, this is the legendary Hatake Kakashi. Are you shocked?"

Hearing Ma Sang's question, the ninja responsible for guarding the door showed a wry smile on his face.

"I was really shocked! I didn't expect him to be so young."

The harshness of Konohagakure's chunin exams is among the best even among the five major ninja villages.

Without strong strength, there is no way to be promoted to Chunin.

Take the ninja guarding the gate.

If he were asked to take the Chunin Examination in Konoha Village, he would most likely not be able to pass.

There are many ninjas at the chunin level of Konoha Village who come to Konoha New City.This ninja who was responsible for guarding the gate had fought against many Konoha chuunin.

There is no need to say more about the result of the fight.

He has never won!

In other words, compared with the chuunin of Konoha Village, his strength is far behind.

Don't look at the little boy in front of you, he is only about his waist.But the strength they possess far exceeds his.

"This is your identity plate. If you need to exchange gold coins, go to the bank. With your identity plate, you don't need to charge any handling fees."

Konoha New City has great benefits for the ninjas of Konoha Village.

A very important thing here is that they do not charge any handling fees when exchanging gold coins.

They can exchange it for one silver coin for 1 taels.

If the other party is not a ninja from Konoha Village, a 1% handling fee will be charged.

In other words, if you want to exchange for a silver coin, you need at least 10 or 100 taels.

"Do you still need to charge a handling fee? Then people can trade in private without using so-called gold coins."

Kakashi asked curiously.

Since entering Konoha New City, Kakashi has simply become a problem baby.

There were many things in this city that he couldn't figure out.

Ma Sang seemed not surprised.

Maybe it was the newcomer who came with him who asked too many questions like this.

"Of course ordinary transactions are possible. Konoha New City does not prohibit other currency transactions. But if you want to buy Konoha New City's special products, you can't do it without gold coins."

"What special product?"

Just when Kakashi was wondering.

In front of the two of them, a very magical object appeared in Kakashi's opinion.

It was a carriage, but there were no oxen or horses to drive it.

The carriage compartment was completely wrapped, with only a few windows exposed.

In addition, the wheels of the carriage are different from ordinary wheels.The wheel is wrapped with some kind of leather. The leather is bulging and completely wraps the wheel.

In front of the carriage is what looks like a cow.

This cow is made entirely of metal and wood, and its eyes flash with a blurry blue light.

The blue light flashed once, and the cow's four legs moved forward.

"What is this?"

Kakashi asked incredulously.

"This is Konoha New Town's specialty wooden cow and horse!"

Masan introduced enthusiastically.

"I've never seen anything like this in our village?"

"Of course you haven't seen it. Among the poor people in our village, who can afford a noble wooden cow and flowing horse? This is a machine technique, powered by chakra. It can be directly driven by a ninja, or it can be injected with chakra. A specific magic circle is then driven and controlled by ordinary people. The one you see now is only an ordinary silver-level one, and it is not very powerful in terms of speed or combat effectiveness."

"Silver rank?"

"With different prices, the grades of wooden cows and flowing horses are of course different. What I know is that there are three types: silver grade, gold grade, and diamond grade. It is said that our city lord has a higher level one, but I have never seen it. "

There was a hint of regret in Masang's tone.

"Is this kind of thing expensive?"

"Of course it's expensive! A silver-level wooden cow and flowing horse requires a hundred gold coins. Do you know what a hundred gold coins are? That's 1 million taels!"

"what?"

One hundred gold coins, Kakashi is still fine.

But 1 million taels really aroused Kakashi's nerves.

"Which [-]-year-old would spend so much money to buy such a thing?"
