Traveling through Nagato, from conquering Konan to dominating the ninja world

"Gambling?" Xiao Nan was slightly surprised and said, "Actually, I don't like gambling itself, which is an inherently uncertain thing. I like to prepare everything before doing it, to ensure that there will be no mistakes."

"Yeah." Perrin nodded and thought: Just like the gift package of 600 billion Exploding Talismans prepared for Obito...

She said mysteriously, "If it is 100% certain that you can win money, Xiaonan, are you willing to take a chance?"

Xiaonan turned his eyes to look at her: "What do you mean?"

Perrin said, "Actually, I have an idea..."

……

In the finance office, Kakuzu was calculating on an abacus with a frown on his face.

"These two prodigal sons have overspent another 8000 million taels this month. It's fine to rebuild the ninja school, but they also want to renovate the nursing home and hospital. And there's that plan of spending money to buy people's hearts. They're all doing business that won't recover their costs in the short term!"

"At the rate they're squandering, the current funds will only last for two months at most..."

His eyes turned to the large money box at his feet.

"No matter what, they won't be able to deduct even a cent from this money!"

"Hi~ Darling~!" A greeting as sweet as a silver bell sounded at the door, but to Kakuzu, the sound was extremely disgusting!

He used his foot to push the cash box to the empty space under the table, calmed himself, and said in a deep voice: "Why are you two here in this remote place in the middle of the night?"

"Let me make it clear first... I really have no money!"

Perrin said coquettishly, "Hateful~ Kakuzu, who do you think I am? I'm not the kind of person who only takes in and never leaves~!"

"Haha." After sneering twice, Kakuzu thought to himself: I don't believe you at all.

He supported his chin with both hands and got ready: "Tell me, except for the money, everything else can be discussed."

"I have a good project and I want to talk to you about it." Perrin took a chair and sat opposite Kakuzu, then... pushed a copy of "Intimate Paradise" in front of Kakuzu.

Kakuzu frowned, "What is this?"

Perrin said: "A book, a book that can create unlimited wealth."

Kakuzu glanced at the cover with an indifferent look on his face.

Perrin smiled and said, "You must be familiar with its author, Jiraiya of the Three Ninjas. You saw him not long ago. I used your corpse to fight him~."

Kakuzu frowned deeply, "It's better if you don't say anything about him!! I get angry when you say something!! Why don't you just kill him like you would kill me!! His head!! Is worth 50 million!! It's enough for your half a month's expenses!!"

Perrin said, "Well, don't be angry. Aren't you interested in this book?"

"Hmph." Kakuzu crossed his arms in front of his chest and said bluntly, "It's just a small book. What can you do with it?"

Perrin smiled and said, "You are very ignorant, Kakuzu. I say that the royalties from this humble little book in front of you in the five great ninja nations can bring in this much in a year. Do you believe it?"

As she spoke, she held up five fingers.

Kakuzu said indifferently: "Why, 50 million a year?"

Perrin shook her head: "NO. No~ Poverty limits your imagination!"

Damn it... It's so annoying to be told this by a guy like you who doesn't even know how expensive fuel and rice are!

Kakuzu frowned and said, "Could it be possible that there are still 500 million?"

Perrin smiled and said, "Why don't you be a little bolder..."

Five hundred million...be bolder.

Kakuzu suddenly opened his eyes wide: "Five billion?"

"Bingo~ Guaranteed minimum, 5 billion, no upper limit!"

Kakuzu stood up suddenly: "Hey! Are you kidding me? Is this real data that can be verified? Or is it something you made up!!!"

At this stage...there is really no evidence to support this.

After all, the current time in the Ninja World is the early summer of the 52nd year of Konoha, and Naruto has not been born yet.

"Intimate Paradise" is also a work by Jiraiya, which was just released after "The Ninja Sword". It is not as well-known and popular as the original work.

At this point in time, it remains to be seen whether "Intimate Paradise" will become a bestseller.

But Nagato knew that it would definitely sell well and there were huge business opportunities in it!

The problem is...how to convince Kakuzu.

Perrin said seriously, "Believe me, this book will be a hit!"

Hearing this, Kakuzu immediately lost interest and sat back down: "You made me excited for nothing, it turns out it was just your fantasy..."

Perrin said, "Kakuzu, I believe your judgment of value. Whether it is just fantasy or not, you will know it after reading the contents of this book."

Let’s send him away first.

Kakuzu put the book aside.

"Then I'll take a look when I have time..."

"No, you watch it now and give me your thoughts immediately after watching it."

What kind of madness has got him into?

Kakuzu was about to explode, but when he looked up, he saw that Pei had been standing at the door at some point, his broad shoulders resting on the door frame, his fists clenched.

"It's raining heavily outside. Can I borrow your place to hide from the rain? By the way, Kakuzu, I feel a little sorry for letting you stay in such a shabby place. I'll give you a fancy office later."

"Let me see, let me see, it's not okay..." Kakuzu said angrily, sat down, and started to watch with gritted teeth.

Rain was hitting the windows as Perrin, Xiaonan and Peiai were waiting quietly.

Xiaonan was a little unsure: Will this work? After reading this, Kakuzu will complain immediately, right?

At dawn... Jiaodu closed the book, blinked his eyes which had been open almost all night, and looked at Pei's face, which had become much more handsome.

"Boss, tell me what you think."

Pei Ai smiled and said, "So, you recognize the value of this book?"

Kakuzu nodded: "Hmm... Boss, you do have a unique vision. I may have misunderstood you in the past."

Xiaonan was surprised: Kakuzu, your attitude is completely different, what is this book about?

Kakuzu tapped the book rhythmically. "I have no idea how the novel publishing industry makes money, but according to business rules, it is not difficult to imagine that this book must have an exclusive distribution channel. That is, your teacher granted part of the copyright to the distributor and shared the profits. No matter what, it has nothing to do with us. What a pity. Should we get rid of the licensor and get the distribution rights of this book?"

Perrin said: "There is absolutely no need to do anything. We should just print the book in large quantities and sell it at a price far lower than the official price. This is the so-called 'pirated copy'. Cheap and lower threshold pirated copies will quickly seize the market, which means bad money drives out good money."

Kakuzu was worried: "Will this work? Won't we be warned by the authorities?"

Pei Ai smiled and said, "Yu Yin is not afraid of any threat of force. All you have to do is fill the sack with money..."

That's right, Minato, you and Jiraiya-sensei are conspiring to carry out cultural invasion of Yugakure, so I will take advantage of your momentum and make a fortune...

That’s right, this is the “intimate strategy”.

Seeing Kakuzu's eyes sparkling, it was obvious that he was moved, Perrin said with a sweet smile: "Kakuzu, I need to apply for some funds..."

Kakuzu was in a good mood and didn't think much about it: "I knew you were waiting for me here, so let it go this time. Take the money box under my feet!"

Pei Ai picked up the cash box.

As Kakuzu lowered his head to drink his tea, he asked, "By the way, what are you going to do with this money?"

Peilin turned around and said with a harmless smile: "Hehe, let Xiaonan use it to gamble..."

"Is that so? Spend it sparingly. I really don't have much left..." Kakuzu lowered his head to drink tea, and suddenly... he shuddered!

"She, she just said...what!?"
