Start farming in Konoha

After a month of this, the grain began to mature, and the grain merchants began to smile as they calculated how many carriages would be needed to transport all the grain. The other villagers of Konoha Village are also very happy. After all, it is good for them to have a money tree in the village. At least the price of food here is the lowest in the ninja world. Not to mention that the welfare of Konoha ninjas will also increase after this harvest. , and most of the villagers here are relatives of ninjas, so of course they will be happy when their welfare has improved.

On the day of harvest, Senju Hashirama was in great spirits and brought all the ninjas to the farm. When he saw the ripe rice, he was very happy and waved and said, "Everyone harvest."

They are all ninjas, so they all use wind escape to harvest, and Senju Hashirama also joined in. The ninjutsu he released was extremely powerful. The same ninjutsu in his hands was more than 10 times that of ordinary ninjas, and this time he also brought His gay friend Uchiha Madara and his younger brother Senju Tobirama came to help. Although Uchiha Madara is very powerful with Fire Release, he is no worse than Senju Hashirama with Wind Release. They seem to be competing. Each of the Wind Releases they release is more powerful than the other. A large area of ​​rice is covered by this powerful Wind Release. Fall to the ground. There are so many high-level people here, and the ninjas can do it very well. It took more than 1000 ninjas one day to acquire all 10 acres of land, which was no different than that of a harvester.

Later, the rice will be threshed and turned into white rice. These require machines, so they are all ordinary people on the farm, not ninjas. But the first batch of rice has already come out of the rice spreader.

Seeing the snow-white rice, Senju Hashirama said happily, "This farm is great. It can not only solve the problems of ninjas living in Konoha, but also solve Konoha's financial problems. With this money, I can expand the ninja school and educate people." More ordinary people come to study.”

"Ordinary people?" Uchiha Madara snorted disdainfully. He is a complete blood-stained theory. In his opinion, training ordinary people to become ninjas is just cannon fodder for blood-stained ninjas. It is better to be a civilian from the beginning. Stay away from killing.

But this is good news for Xu Qiang. He believes that ninjutsu is the primary productive force in this world. To liberate productivity and develop productivity, we must cultivate more ninjas. However, the only difference from these people is that he uses ninjas as technicians instead of as tools for killing. However, the thinking of ninjas has been fixed now. It is very difficult for them to work quietly as industrial workers, so his men They are some old, weak, sick and disabled ninjas. But new ninjas can be slowly brainwashed, making them realize that ninjas can not only do tasks, but also be skilled workers, and you deserve a high-paying industry.

So Xu Qiang said, "Can our production department entrust the training of a group of ninjas?"

Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara were very surprised when they heard it and couldn't understand what it meant.

Xu Qiang explained, "The production department has always been short of manpower, but no one is willing to come to our department. To solve the manpower problem, I recruited 1000 ordinary people, but their efficiency is not as good as ninjas, so in order to solve the manpower problem. I wonder if we can The production department spends money to train some ninjas in ninja schools. It is best for these ninjas to be almost adults. This way, they can get good jobs after graduation. Adult ninjas have better jobs than young ninjas. Our department does not need them to have much ninja talent. , After all, they don’t need to fight. After graduation, they will not do tasks but come to work in our production department.” After saying this, Xu Qiang thought for a while and said, “Because they don’t need to fight, many ninjas don’t need to learn the knowledge they need to learn. As long as they can quickly Just learn how to refine chakra, and have a few wind escape and land tools for work, and try to get them to graduate as soon as possible."

Senju Hashirama thought for a while and said, "If your production department provides the money, there will be no problem. There are many teenagers in Konoha who are over 10 years old. In this way, a youth class can be opened in the ninja school. If you only learn chakra extraction techniques and... Simple Wind Release and Earth Release, so they can graduate in just a few months, but it still takes time to practice chakra slowly, so there is a way to take shortcuts."

Uchiha Madara said at this time, "Even if ordinary people become ninjas, they are not as good as those with ninja blood. Since these people have poor combat effectiveness, it is safer for them to work in the production department without having to participate in ninja missions." And I think the genin who have just become ninjas can work in the production department for a period of time, so that they can become familiar with the ninjutsu they learned and have an adaptation period, so that they will not die early due to tasks."

Senju Hashirama deeply agreed with Uchiha Madara's words. After all, several of his younger brothers died on the battlefield when they were still young, so he said, "In this way, even the little ninjas who graduated from the ninja school as long as they have not reached 16 years old will first Go to work in the production department and do not allow underage ninjas to do tasks."

Xu Qiang had no feelings for Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara. After all, he had not experienced the cruelty of the Warring States Period. But he was very happy to hear that ninjas were all going to work in his department. Now he didn't have to worry about lack of manpower. If there are not enough people, it will take several years to arrive. The distant water cannot quench the near thirst, so he said, "In this way, I plan to train 100 ninjas in the first period of the youth class. It is best to train them all as adults. This is a good job."

In this way, the future of the Ninja School students was decided during the conversation between the three of them.

But then Xu Qiang became very busy. Every day the rice was on display, grain merchants bought it. There is no need to talk about the price of 3 cents per catty. I bought a few hundred thousand catties, loaded it on a carriage, hired a team of ninjas, and set off. Fortunately, Senju Hashirama built a road in advance in order to sell rice, which made traveling a lot easier. In order to attract businessmen, he also The employment fee has been reduced a lot.

This time, 3000 million jins of rice were harvested. In order to maintain such a business network, Xu Qiang distributed each grain. A large number of merchants gave more than 100 million jins of grain, and a small amount of several hundred thousand jins. In short, they all had a share, and they also shared it with others. They made an appointment to come back next month.

In the end, Xu Qiang calculated the harvest of 9 taels of silver. Even after the cost, he made a net profit of more than 8 taels. I can only sigh, "Business in this world is so good that you can make a fortune even by farming."

The next day.

Hokage Building Conference Room.

Xu Qiang handed the account book to Senju Hashirama. When he saw the income, he was surprised and said, "This is almost one-tenth of our Konoha Village's finances. I actually made more than 8 taels. It's even better than It’s an S-level mission, now we can build two more teaching buildings.”

"Hokage-sama, we can't calculate it like this. We still need to pay the wages of 100 ninjas and 1000 workers. This time, so many ninjas in the village have to be troubled and we have to give them a gift to thank them. And the production department also needs to develop. funds, so we can only hand over half of the funds." Xu Qiang said after hearing Qianju Zhujian's words, otherwise he was afraid that Qianju Zhujian would use all the money to build teaching buildings, and his department would lose no benefits at all. After all, everyone After working hard for a month and having a good harvest but with nothing in the end, it would be difficult for him to be the leader. And he has follow-up plans. He doesn't want to just develop agriculture, the potential is too low. Because he knows that if he wants to make a lot of money, he still needs to develop industry, which requires a lot of money to buy machinery.
