Ninja Ice House

Since the turn of the New Year, the Gushan Family and Muye Village have carried out several large-scale asset exchanges.

There is no need to elaborate on the process. Judging from the results, the absolute debt borne by Muye Village has increased slightly. However, most of the high-quality assets in the village, especially real estate in prime locations, have completely shaken off their shackles.

After Konoha Ninja took over, the operating efficiency dropped slightly, but the revenue increased instead.

It is foreseeable that within three years, the Konoha ninjas will still bear the pressure of huge interest. After the debt crisis is relieved, they will be able to get rid of the economic restraint of the Gushan family to a certain extent.

Privately, many senior officials of Konoha Village admired Hiruza Sarutobi's gamble very much.

In order to repay the debt as soon as possible, I took the initiative to borrow more money and invest it in more profitable assets.

As long as Muye Village is prosperous, in the long run, this deal will make a lot of money.

Because the amount was too huge, not only the senior management of Konoha Village, Sarutobi Hiruzen himself, but also several friendly ninjas in the village basically participated in it.

This is the largest action of the community of interests. For the sake of the autonomy of Konoha Ninja, they unite with each other with a heart to squeeze the influence of the Gushan family.

Both glory and loss!

It seems that due to the change of the wind direction, the speed of the Gushan family's "moving from the real to the virtual" in Muye Village has accelerated a lot. Many real good things have been replaced by various forms of debt and packaged in the transaction. The market is slowly selling off.

Although it is slow, it is steady, and anyone with a discerning eye can see that, except in a few areas that are not the lifeblood, the Gushan family still has a sense of presence, and the sense of sight of foreign shadows everywhere is getting weaker and weaker.

Food, clothing, housing, transportation, birth, old age, sickness and death are almost all related to the Gushan family's business, which is too embarrassing for Konoha Ninja.

After receiving the reminder from Gu Shan Bu Shui, Gui Zhiji also followed the plan, gradually shrinking his presence in Konoha Village, withdrawing some industries, and then placing them in the nearby Shinjuku Town.

It seems that there is a feeling that the Gushan family is going to abandon Konoha Village and choose to develop in Shinjuku Town.

Those who know and those who don't, keep silent about this matter.

As for the key figure, Gushan Bushui, he returned directly to Yuqi Island, staring at the holding of this year's No.20 "King of Fighters" challenge.

The "little things" that happened in Muye Village were not taken to heart at all.

"Have I told you before? To me, it doesn't matter how much money you have. As long as you want, you can instantly mobilize almost unlimited gold and silver to spend. These are meaningless. Let Muye Village's back be even more Heavy debt, the most important thing."

Debt is not only a shackle, but also a whip, urging the debtor to work hard to make money and pay off the debt.

For Gu Shan Bu Shui, money and capital are just tools, one of the trump cards that ninjas can use for themselves.

"Konoha Village's 'Konoha Spirit' and 'Will of Fire' are very interesting. Their understanding of 'jade' is very different from before."

"Oh?"

Sitting next to his son, Gushan Zhengcheng, who was watching the ring duel, asked,

"Why didn't I realize it?"

"It's very subtle, very profound! This is a change that has only begun since the late period of Hokage III Sarutobi Hiruzane's administration."

"The fourth generation is dead, and the third generation is coming out of the mountain again?"

"Yes! Nine-tails' attack on the village, the impact on Konoha ninjas is definitely not measured by how many people died or how many buildings were destroyed. Their morality and values ​​have turned a corner because of this."

Gu Shan Bu Shui whispered,

"Before this, the death of Konoha Baiya Hatake Sakumo was typical. In order to save his companions, he gave up the mission, which indirectly caused more casualties. Hatake Sakumo was blamed by the whole village and was even rescued by him. Even his comrades who died didn't understand his choice. In the end, he, who was betrayed by all his relatives, chose to commit suicide. Now, will this behavior still be condemned by thousands of people?"

Some people may still think that what he did was wrong, but it will definitely not be to the point of driving people to death.

"It's really strange that a mercenary organization that claims to be a mission machine has started to dig out the value of human nature."

"It's not surprising that the discovery of 'human' is a milestone change. Ninjas began to regard themselves as a member of normal people, attach importance to fetters, and elevate the symbolic meaning of inheritance. Perhaps, at the beginning, it was to emphasize the glorious tradition , leaving the stereotype of "I am a hero and a hero", but gradually, the situation has changed. Treating 'Jade' as a child and descendant is actually deepening honor, history and self-knowledge in disguise, you know it means what?"

"A group with self-demand and powerful force was born."

"Yes! If it was the former Muye Village, I wouldn't be so cruel to them. The well-trained mob is still a mob, so it's nothing to worry about. Even if Senshou Zhujian is resurrected, the worst thing is to wait for him to die of old age. Anyway, it will not threaten our status. The current Konoha Village cannot relax its vigilance..."

Inside Muye Village, there is a brewing trend of thought that is different from the orthodox claims of the daimyo and the Gusugi family, and also different from the traditional order.

Civilian ninjas, the impact on the ninja children, the frequent attacks on the upper and lower, the upper and lower Mohu, lost their awe of the stars and authority.

"Some things cannot be suppressed."

Gu Shan Bu Shui said to the old father who was lost in thought,

"However, this bursting power cannot burst out from Muye Village. It is best to be guided by the Gushan family to complete the reform from top to bottom, and then transform in a logical way, otherwise..."

The daimyo and Gusugi family who bear the brunt will suffer serious losses.

"Are you afraid?"

"It used to be a little bit, but now..."

To be honest, Gushan Bushui is afraid that Muye Village will develop on its own, and then complete the transformation, becoming an armed group with its own ideas that cannot be intervened.

Now, the Gu Shan Bu Shui, who was about to snuff out the bud, was no longer worried.

Economically enslaved, spiritually divided, steered in a less dangerous direction.

Now, it seems to be close to success.

"The spirit of Konoha and the will of fire cannot be decided by the third generation alone. Shimura Danzo is also a member of the big family. Should he also express his thoughts? Or, Uchiha Sasuke will have A different idea? I see, Hinata Hinata, the patriarch of the Hyuga Clan, doesn’t seem to buy it very much.”

Gu Shanzheng understood.

"A strong Konoha Village is necessary, but it is not in our interests to be too united and monolithic. The daimyo has been doing the division, but the effect is not good."

"Winning ninjas? It's not very useful! If you can't untie the relationship between Konoha ninjas' personal attachment to Konoha village, economic dependence and social recognition, it's useless to win them over. Look at me and Shimura Danzo, the Inuzuka clan, The oil girl clan, the Nara clan, and the Kurama clan are very happy to cooperate. However, only the Kurama clan maintains a relatively neutral attitude. The others, once Sarutobi Hiruzen calls, immediately contribute money and effort, without even asking us. the opinion of."

It's all about wooing, the old way of painting cakes with money and names is too primitive.

The fortress was breached from the inside, and Muye Village was not in chaos, and outsiders had no chance to intervene.

How to expose the hidden internal contradictions in Muye Village?

Of course, it is an economic crisis, that is, there is a problem in the field of money. If there is a conflict of interests or unfair distribution, it is a good opportunity for Gu Shanbu to do something.

While the two were chatting, the rematch below finally came to an end.

There are no particularly famous players participating this year. Inuzuka Kiba, Yume Shino and Uzami who came last year also participated in the competition of all age groups. 24, missed the final.

Every year, the average strength of the contestants is steadily improving. For Gushan Bushui, this is the best thing.

This means that the strength of the "Alliance of Fighters" will increase by a large amount.

It is self-evident that the benefit to the Gushan family is to control this "non-governmental organization".

Many things that are inconvenient to come forward can be done by fighters.

Among the hustle and bustle of the crowd, Xiao Hiiragi, with bright eyes, held the hands of the two younger sisters and squeezed to the front with difficulty. After watching the competition of the participating fighters, he said to the two younger sisters.

"In a few years, let's go to participate, shall we? Like my sister, we will defeat the powerful enemies one by one and win the championship."

"Is it too difficult?"

After Xiao Si heard the words, he immediately wanted to retreat, but Xiao Jing was a little tempted, but he didn't want to make a decision like this.

"Let me tell you quietly, we will go to school next year."

"Are you going to Konoha Village? Didn't you say that if you don't become a ninja, you don't have to go to school?"

Xiao Si muttered unhappily.

The little guy doesn't want to leave home to go to school, so he wants to stay at home and play.

"I used to think the same way. However, I secretly heard once that if you don't become a ninja, you have to go to school, but the things you learn are a little different."

"I don't want to go either!"

Xiaojing replied with some hesitation,

"By the time we go to school, my sister will have graduated."

"Then where are we going, Inaba Academy? It's very strictly controlled there, and it looks like we can't go home normally!"

When it comes to this, the three little guys are even more unhappy.

"However, what my father meant seems to be to let us go to Inaba Academy or Konoha Ninja School."

After going to Muye Village, it is also very difficult to return to Yuqi Island. Throughout the year, there are only two or three times when I get together with my parents. The only advantage is that I am closer to my sister Xianglin.

Inaba Academy is relatively close. Although it is a dormitory system on weekdays, you can take a liner home to rest on weekends and at the end of the month.

"I wish I could be taught by my father at home, or have a tutor!"

Thinking of this troublesome matter, Xiao Hiiragi has some doubts.

As the age grows from small to large, the little guy has more troubles in his heart.

-----------------

In Konoha Village, Danzo Shimura looked at the information obtained by his subordinates, and couldn't help but get angry.

"Fool, if you're so greedy, aren't you afraid of being set up by others!"

The "Darkness of the Ninja World", who has always shown a calm face and rarely shows his emotions, can't help it this time.

"I have hinted so many times, don't let the Gushan family run away, and are so eager to buy, buy, buy, is it because they are afraid that others will not slip away fast enough?"

Shimura Danzo didn't know the details of the "Konoha collapse plan", but it didn't prevent him from guessing that Orochimaru was hooking up with Sand Hidden Village and was planning to plot against Konoha Village.

Once the Nine-Tails attacked the village again, or a catastrophe similar to the night of the Uchiha extermination, how would it end?

Although Shimura Danzo thinks that those extraneous things are not very important, it does not prevent money from playing various roles.

In vain to untie the socket for the Gushan family, once they really suffer a heavy loss, they still have to bear the pain themselves.

Natural disasters and man-made disasters, self-seeking more blessings, whether it is a loss or a gain, I am willing to gamble and admit defeat.

In any case, as long as it is exchanged for circulating bonds, it will be difficult for Muye Village to use the excuse of force majeure to renege on its debts.

Although he didn't know how much loss he would suffer next year, Shimura Danzo also instinctively felt that Fusugi Bumizu, who was speeding up his withdrawal at this time, definitely didn't take the initiative to back down because of Sarutobi Hiruzen's face.

Of course, the current Shimura Danzo does not dare to turn his back on him.

Pressing Jiji's chest, Shimura Danzo took out a tube of medicine from his arms, drank it in one gulp, put a few pills in his mouth, chewed them, and swallowed them.

Just for a while, the value of the medicinal materials that were eaten made "Darkness of the Ninja World" a little bit painful.

But these have to be used.

Without the yin-type Sharingan to balance the yang-type power of the first-generation cells, Shimura Danzo must take in from the outside to maintain internal balance.

The point is, these precious medicines are extremely difficult to buy from the outside world. If it weren't for the deal with Gu Shan Bu Shui, it would not be easy for Shimura Danzo to get too many of them.

Shimura Danzo had no choice but to turn a blind eye to some unimportant matters.

If he offends Gushan Bushui and the other party doesn't bring medicine, Shimura Danzo's body won't last long.

Watching Hiruzaru Sarutobi make a big mistake, but feeling helpless, Shimura Danzo suffers a lot.

Just think about it from another angle.

Ren Hokage's decision-making caused the village to suffer heavy losses. Isn't it a disguised way to show that his ability is not good?

At this time, taking advantage of the trend to force the palace, it will be much easier for him to step down.

Shimura Danzo, who was thinking about the pros and cons, probably didn't expect that Hiruzaru Sarutobi would die directly in battle, and the village also suffered a heavy loss.

Underestimating the threat of Orochimaru and Sand Hidden Village joining forces is also the result of Shimura Danzo's arrogance.

On the other hand, Inuzuka Kiba and his party, who returned home in defeat, were still appreciated by the school teachers.

Judging from the performance of several people in the actual combat class, the children who have experienced the baptism of the "King of Fighting" competitions of all ages have been greatly improved.

Like Xianglin and Uchiha Zuosuke, it takes both strength and luck to win the championship all the way through.

In any case, the strength of Inuzuka Ya and Yume Shino is still a lot worse.

As for Uzumi, she seems to get along well with most of her classmates, but her sense of presence is not very high, and almost no one knows how much of her strength she has used in the past two years.
