Konoha's Five Attributes Ninja
Chapter 297: Why did you provoke him?
Late at night, the Hokage's office was brightly lit. The Anbu, which was originally scheduled to have four people on duty, temporarily added two teams. Naturally, some people were destined to be sleepless tonight.
More than half an hour later, Namikaze Minato and Uchiha Fugaku walked into the office one after another, and the highest-level letter was circulated.
Ye Shan took out a cigarette from the newly opened cigarette box, but did not light it up right away. He put it under his nose and sniffed it, then raised his head and asked, "What do you think? If you have any ideas, just say it. I'm really sorry to disturb you in the middle of the night. If you can come to a conclusion early, you can go back and get some sleep."
Uchiha Keiji stood up with a smile, took out a uniquely shaped lighter from his trouser pocket, and pretended to light up Ye Shan's cigarette, but the latter waved his hand to refuse, so he had to hand the lighter to him and told him to do as he pleased.
Ye Shan played with the lighter for a while, and then lit a cigarette in silence. After taking a deep puff, he leaned comfortably on the leather sofa.
Uchiha Fugaku frowned, with some eye mucus in the corners of his eyes, which greatly damaged his majestic image. Fortunately, no one would deliberately look at him in the middle of the night: "The Hidden Mist Village is in turmoil, and its strength has been reduced to freezing point. Why don't we be villains for once and add insult to injury!"
"The strong are respected in the ninja world. Since the Hidden Mist Village is not worthy of its position, there is no need for the Konohagakure to continue to be the good guy. We should just send troops to take over their territory!"
As expected of Fugaku, he is the evil-eyed one who wants to kill others as soon as he opens his mouth. Speaking of which, the hatred between the Uchiha clan and the Hidden Mist Village is very deep. During the two Ninja World Wars, both sides crowded on the coastline of the Land of Fire and fought each other to their heart's content. For this, the Uchiha clan lost many prominent figures.
Namikaze Minato was as gentle as ever and immediately expressed his attitude: "I don't think it's appropriate!"
"The Hidden Mist Village has been passed down for decades and has its own foundation. Moreover, the Vulpix is still in their hands. If they are pushed into a corner, no one can guarantee that there will not be chaos!"
"Hokage, you might as well use warnings and punishments as the main approach and continue to weaken them. If you really start a war to annihilate a country, even the Konohagakure will have a hard time."
Ye Shan nodded, flicked the ash off his cigarette, and said, "From a personal perspective, I wish the Hidden Mist Village would perish immediately. Yamashiro Tatsuya died there in the past. Every time I think of it, I grit my teeth in hatred!"
"But as the Hokage, I am in charge of the military and political affairs of a country. My duties do not allow me to do whatever I want. I must always put the interests of the country and the village first. Minato is right. Even if the Kirigakure is in decline, its foundation is still there. It is far from the point where everyone will push down the wall when it falls. So let's give up the plan of swallowing them up for the time being."
Uchiha Fugaku didn't look very good, and I don't know if it was because he didn't sleep well.
Ye Shan smiled, threw a cigarette to Uchiha Fugaku, and said, "The autumn grain of the New Rain Country should be temporarily delayed from being transported to the designated location, and stored in Haibo City. I will have a great use for it."
Uchiha Fugaku frowned deeply and said hesitantly: "That is not a small amount, it is tens of millions of tons, enough for millions of people to eat and drink for a year."
Uchiha Keiji took out a railway map, pointed at it with his fingers for a while, and a look of shock flashed across his eyes.
"Deputy Hokage Keiji seems to have figured out some ideas. Don't hide them. Tell us about them." Ye Shan said with a smile.
Uchiha Keiji nodded, spread the route map on the coffee table, and said softly: "Please look, this is Haibo City, adjacent to the Wave Country, it has been a natural high-quality port since ancient times. A few years ago, the Hokage ordered the Wave Country to build a port with a large throughput here, which can transport millions of tons of cargo every day!"
"As we all know, the Water Country is surrounded by the sea. It is a large island with a humid climate and many hills and mountains. The crop planting rate is extremely low. In order to feed the growing population, they can only buy food through maritime trade, and the annual scale is about 20 million tons."
"The food produced by the New Rain Country far exceeds its own needs. Under the leadership of the Hokage, the people have achieved a leap in material life in a short period of time." Uchiha Keiji flattered him a little and changed the subject: "Since the Water Country needs to import food, and we produce more food, why don't we sell the food to the Water Country?"
Uchiha Fugaku has been in charge of the power of the New Rain Country for a long time. He is extremely sensitive to the economic lifeline and food lifeline. He understood Ye Shan's plan almost instantly, clapped his hands and laughed, "Defeating the enemy without fighting, Lord Hokage has a vicious heart!"
Minato Namikaze was relatively simple-minded, and for a moment he didn't understand the intentions of the three people with bad intentions. He smiled and stared at the route map, trying to find some clues.
Ye Shan walked up, patted Minato on the shoulder, and said: "You are still as innocent as ever."
"Look here. Last year, I spent tens of billions to open up the railway between Linjing City and Haibo City, greatly shortening the transportation cost and time between the two. I also ordered the shipyard of the Whirlpool Country to build ten steam cargo ships to ensure smooth sea transportation, all for today!"
Namikaze Minato suddenly realized and said, "I see, you want to make money from the Water Country!"
Uchiha Keiji winked and said with evil intentions: "Not only that, we can sell our grain at any price they want, even if they have to pay with gold!"
This is true. The Fire Nation is vast and rich in resources. Not only does it have a pleasant climate and many plains, but its productivity is also far ahead. It has been a major grain-producing area since ancient times. The grain grown every year is enough to feed a population twice its own, which makes people drool.
Unexpectedly, Ye Shan shook his head and said sinisterly: "To conquer a country, you don't necessarily have to rely on force. Force is only a last resort. I have a plan that can make the Land of Water willingly join the Konohagakure!"
After waiting for a while, Uchiha Fugaku saw that Ye Shan was just smoking, and couldn't help but urged him: "Tell me what you have planned!"
Ye Shan smiled sinisterly: "The grain we export to the Water Country is not allowed to be traded with money. It must be exchanged with daffodils!"
"what?"
"Nani?"
The three of them were horrified. Daffodil trade? That thing is useless except for looking good. The Fire Nation is exchanging food for flowers. This is like lobster stewed with eggs - nonsense!
Uchiha Fugaku sat on the chair with a sad face, slowly lit a cigarette and started smoking, and asked: "You are not a short-sighted leader, just say whatever you want to say, we are all listening."
Ye Shan nodded and clapped his hands lightly. Nara Shikaku immediately pushed the door open and asked respectfully, "What can I do for you?"
"Go, evacuate all irrelevant personnel from the surrounding area. No one is allowed to approach! Also, notify the barrier team to set up a barrier to isolate the enemy. I have something important to discuss."
Soon, everything was ready. Ye Shan smiled calmly and said, "If you were dying of thirst and there was a cup of water with a slow-acting poison in front of you, would you drink it or not?"
The three of them looked at each other and said, "You have to drink it! If you drink it, you can live for a while. If you don't drink it, you will die immediately. Only a fool would not drink it!"
"That's right! Today, the economic and political system of the Water Country is on the verge of collapse, just like the man who is about to die of thirst. Especially in terms of economy, after losing the egg-laying hen of the Whirlpool Country, they have lost 80% of their foreign exchange income. Every year, they rely on selling seafood to make a living. It's so poor that it makes me sad."
Ye Shan sighed and continued, "The people of the Water Country have a hard life! It's not even as hard as the new Rain Country that has just escaped poverty. As a ninja, I sympathize with them very much."
"Similarly, the people of New Rain Country have just escaped poverty and have been satisfied with their material lives, but their spiritual lives are very lacking. As the Hokage, I am anxious about this!"
"If we want to change the plight of the two countries, we must be brave enough to develop innovative thinking! The daffodils of the Water Country are unique in the ninja world. Not only are they fragrant, but their colors are also beautiful. Many dignitaries are proud to display a large pot of daffodils. We might as well break the traditional thinking of exchanging money for goods and switch to bartering. One daffodil can be exchanged for 100 kilograms of grain. What do you think?"
The three people in the room were stunned. If the person in front of them was not their boss, they really wanted to rush forward and give him a big punch!
Okay, okay, food for daffodils, right?
Okay, okay, one hundred kilograms of grain for a daffodil, right?
Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was recognized as a soft persimmon in the ninja world back then, was not as generous as you, nor as spendthrift as you!
Not only did the three of them not understand this wave of operations, even the people in the ninja world in the next few decades would not understand it! Because this is not a strategy of this world at all, and Ye Shan learned it secretly from his previous life.
Back then, the Jews relied on their suicidal spirit and clever minds to raise the price of bread in a certain country from a few marks to hundreds of thousands of marks, and then they made tens of thousands of times the profit by reselling foreign exchange. Why do you do whatever you want? Just because you run a factory and I manage the farm!
I can live without bicycles, airplanes, bikes, toothbrushes, toothpaste and other industrial products for a month, but can you live without food for a month? Forget about a month, you will have to lie down for a week.
What Yeshan wants to use is a strategy of annihilating the entire family. Without mobilizing a single soldier or having the Konoha ninjas take action themselves, he can turn the Water Country into his own territory!
In the past few years, Ye Shan has been beating up the Water Country whenever he gets the chance, and he is really merciless. It's not his fault that he is narrow-minded, after all, it was the Kirigakure that was rude.
Ye Shan is a vulgar man, and sometimes he has a very narrow mind. If he wants to blame someone, he should blame the short-sighted Kirigakure for offending him.
I still say that, why do you bother him for no reason?
