Konoha: This Uchiha just wants to lie down

River Country!

Tang Ping stood on the top of a hundred-meter-high stone mountain, looking down at the civilians below who were like ants.

There were "wooden cows" scattered among them.

This kind of thing has many uses, transportation, farming... harvesting are inseparable from each other.

In simple terms, it is equivalent to the agricultural machinery before Tang Ping crossed over, but more comprehensive.

Although wooden cows are mainly made of wood, they are not only more outstanding in all aspects, but also less likely to be damaged because they have been processed by puppetry.

It is also because of a large number of wooden cows that civilians can "cultivate the land carefully" instead of relying on their luck to eat after the seeds are sown.

The River Country at this time is different from before.

Even if the population exceeds one million, it is still absorbing population continuously.

After all, people can eat well, live well, and wear warm clothes here, and these things can't deceive people.

Even if you have to work 007 every day, it is the life that civilians dream of.

Anyway, Tang Ping himself is a little scared of the development speed.

What limits its expansion speed now is that the training of management personnel can't keep up with the pace, and it dares not jump too fast.

At this time, the hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of territory occupied are not small.

If they really dare to swallow the entire River Country, believe it or not, the neighboring Fire Country and Wind Country will immediately teach them a lesson.

Therefore, although the population of the River Country has skyrocketed, the territory is not in a hurry to expand.

At least it is not the time yet.

"The Sand Ninja has arrived!"

Hinata Cangyue came over to remind.

This huge stone mountain, which was revealed because the river was diverted and diverted, is the negotiation site this time.

A few dozen kilometers to the west is the Wind Country.

After hearing the voice, Tang Ping retracted his gaze and walked towards the fortress.

It is called a fortress, but it is just a simple building made of stones.

It is a base for monitoring the Wind Country.

Usually there are ninja teams rotating.

And the border is also blocked by traps and warning barriers to prevent the River Country from being freely entered and exited by the Sand Ninja.

Of course, today is an exception.

Because of the arrival of the Sand Ninja delegation, two teams of ninjas were transferred away.

As for ordinary people? .

There is no need to transfer them. With their abilities, they cannot find the Sand Ninja delegation.

There are only three people in the Sand Ninja delegation this time.

Ebizo, Ye Cang, Maki!

The one who makes the decision is naturally Ebizo, the Sand Ninja elder.

As the intellectual leader of the Sand Ninja, and in charge of diplomacy and intelligence, he is indeed the best choice.

As for Ye Cang and Maki? .

They are naturally responsible for guarding and also for supporting the scene.

Step!

Dohei walked into the simple stone fortress and saw the people inside.

In addition to the three people from the Sand Ninja delegation, there are also Uchiha Yashiro, Ashia Kiyomi, Honda Takashi and others from the castle tower, all of whom are internal affairs personnel.

"Your Excellency Dohei!"*3

"Sir!"*3

Seeing Dohei coming in, both sides stood up and greeted him.

Even Ye Cang did the same.

Because today she represented the Sand Ninja, not herself, so naturally she couldn't act recklessly like usual.

"It seems that you Sand Ninjas have finally figured it out?"

Dou Ping sat down and looked at Ebizo who was sitting opposite the stone table with interest.

Because they had mentioned cooperating with the Sand Ninjas a long time ago, but the Sand Ninjas were disdainful of cooperating with them at that time.

After all, no matter how much, the Sand Ninjas are one of the five major ninja villages. Do you think your castle tower is worthy of cooperating with them? .

Now agreeing to cooperate, in other words, the Sand Ninjas admit that the castle tower is qualified to be on an equal footing with them.

"No one will go against interests, right?"

Ebizo responded with this.

As expected of the intellectual responsibility of the Sand Ninjas, his ability to adapt is indeed good.

And the cooperation between the two parties is that the Sand Ninjas will carry out larger-scale cooperation in puppets, minerals, venom... and so on.

At the same time, the products produced by the castle tower, especially cloth, wood, salt, ironware... and so on, also need a larger market.

Both sides have mutual needs.

But this kind of thing can be done but not said.

Because these fields have always been monopolized by the nobles of the Wind Country.

In the past, the Sand Ninja had no chance to come into contact with these things, and could only survive by relying on mission commissions. Otherwise, they would not have chosen to invade Konoha with all their might because their mission share was snatched away.

Because the castle tower smuggled materials to the Wind Country through channels, the Sand Ninjas discovered huge profits, so Luosha coveted it and prepared to control the castle tower through the mining area, so that they would understand that if they wanted to do business in the Wind Country, they would have to give up their interests to the Sand Ninjas.

The result was a failure to control it.

However, this does not mean that the two sides will not cooperate, but it will affect the distribution of interests in the cooperation.

If the Sand Ninja wins, it means that the castle tower will take the initiative to come to the door to discuss cooperation, rather than the other party sending an envoy to discuss cooperation.

"Well said, I just have one thing I am very curious about!"

Dou Ping also agreed with Ebizo's words, and expressed that he was very curious about one thing.

"Excuse me?"

Ebizo put on a posture of knowing everything.

"How dare those nobles suppress the Sand Village like this, and how can you bear it?"

Dou Ping directly hit the heart.

The ninja world knows what kind of life the Sand Ninjas live.

It was completely backstabbed by the nobles of the Wind Country. Even a large share of the task of maintaining the survival of the village was assigned to Konoha.

It was simply inhuman.

As expected, a hint of anger appeared between Ye Cang's eyebrows.

She was the one who had the biggest objections to the nobles, but under the suppression of the village, she could only choose to be the vanguard of the invasion of Konoha, and did not dare to blame the nobles.

There is no way, Sunagakure Village needs supplies from the Country of Wind in terms of finance, food, resources, etc.

Otherwise, do you really think that a village of more than 100,000 people can survive alone in the desert? .

They expressed their dissatisfaction with the nobles of the Kingdom of Wind on the front foot, and let them eat themselves as soon as their various supplies were cut off.

Such a realistic threat, coupled with the noble status of the nobles deeply rooted in the hearts of ninjas, made the sand ninjas endure it.

"The adults have always been supportive of Sunagakure Village. The information Mr. Dohei heard may be wrong!"

Faced with Dohei's heart-wrenching question, Ebizo directly responded with "fake news."

Even if Sunagakure Village is dissatisfied with the nobles of the Wind Country, they cannot speak out directly.

Anyway, no matter what others think, they can’t say it themselves.

"Okay, let's talk about our next cooperation!"

Tang Ping turned to the topic.

The nonsense just said was to depress the other party's morale and show that one's own side has the initiative in the cooperation.

No matter how bad he is at negotiating, he certainly knows this little trick.

"Sunagakure Village can make puppets and parts for you at low prices, and even sell minerals... venom, and you need to pay with salt, food, cloth, weapons..."

As the intellectual responsible for Suna Ninja, Ebizo understood Dohei's intention just now and offered cooperation with a normal expression.

Barter!

The castle tower has everything that the Kingdom of Wind lacks, so if they cooperate, they can gain a lot of benefits.

In the past, it was just a small fight, but once the official cooperation begins, a little bit of oil and water represents huge benefits, and can even allow the Sand Ninja to escape the control of the nobles of the Kingdom of Wind.

With such huge benefits, not to mention the manpower lost in local wars, even if all the ninjas died, it would not affect their cooperation.

"Cooperation is fine, but we have to take 90% of the profits!"

Tang Ping was aggressive and didn't even mention the 50-50 ratio, it was just a 19-digit ratio.

"you…"

Just when Ye Cang was about to get angry, he was stopped by Ebizo.

If it had been anyone else, even the recently ascended Kazekage, Ye Cang would not have been able to obey orders, but after Ebizo's words, she managed to restrain her anger.

"Our Sunagakure Village needs to put a lot of effort into protecting the fleet and providing a market. If we take half of it, I think it's a good fit!"

Ebizo comforted Ye Cang and returned the money directly.

As long as this material channel can be controlled, Sand Hidden Village will not be firmly controlled by the nobles and major forces.

This is the most crucial point!

In comparison, although interests are also important, they are not that important.

However, what he didn't know was that Tang Ping's thoughts were similar to his.
