Konoha: This Uchiha just wants to lie down

The castle tower!

It is now completely different from the past.

Although it has never been publicized due to Dohei's "low profile".

But who let them sweep the daimyo coalition and defeat the Mist Ninja Army before, naturally they can't keep a low profile.

After a careful investigation, it directly shocked the major ninja villages.

Too strong!

Apart from other aspects, the population alone is as high as 300,000.

Note that this is the number of "registered" people. If the caravans and temporary population are added, the number is about 500,000, which is no worse than Konoha, and is completely catching up with Kyoto, the most prosperous city in the Ninja World.

The population of the cities in the Ninja World cannot be increased because the more people there are, the more troubles there are in terms of food, planning, order... etc.

For example, the simplest food!

If there are hundreds of thousands of people, hundreds or thousands of tons will be consumed every day. When will it be transported by carriage? .

But the castle tower is a port city, which means that food can be imported from the sea, which is much more convenient than carriages.

At the same time, it is also because the self-produced food solves most of the burden, so it can support such an exaggerated population.

After the last war, they obtained an area with a radius of about 100 miles, directly expanding the territory by more than ten times.

Well, this is a secret agreement. The castle tower wants the inside, and the daimyo wants the face.

At least from the perspective of publicity, this is a "tie".

Anyway, only the big ninja village knows the truth. The small ninja village even thinks that the daimyo was finally influenced by Konoha and chose to let the castle tower go.

In this regard, the castle tower did not explain, which is equivalent to "acquiescence".

Who let the daimyo give too much.

That is, there is no call for the elf to take action, otherwise, all kinds of cultivated fields, orchards, pastures, etc. will definitely increase by more than ten times.

It didn't matter before, but now it really can't call the monster back.

The castle tower is now the focus of observation of major forces. As long as those terracotta warriors appear, they will be discovered in minutes.

The castle tower is not as unknown as it was at the beginning.

Even if a piece of information is released casually, there are no less than two-digit spies who are concerned, so if you don't want to expose Wuliang, you really can't let him return to the castle tower.

However, in the closed-off places like the Land of Water, there will be no problem with the Mist Ninjas' escort.

Therefore, now there are countless people carrying farm tools in the castle tower every day, flattening plants, cleaning up debris, and then crushing the soil and blending it into bird droppings or compost.

In the past, when Wuliang commanded the Terracotta Warriors to reclaim the wilderness, it didn't feel so, but when it was reclaimed by manpower, you can feel how exaggerated the difference is.

A Terracotta Warrior is three meters tall, with unlimited endurance and amazing strength. It can be regarded as the rhythm of a small excavator.

But what about manpower? .

It takes dozens or hundreds of people to match the efficiency of a Terracotta Warrior.

If simply piling up manpower can achieve the efficiency of the Terracotta Warrior, then the castle tower will definitely not be stingy with manpower.

But manpower is something you can’t just pile up whenever you want.

Just like doing a project, it doesn’t mean that doubling the manpower will double the efficiency.

It also involves management, logistics, planning, etc.

So, even if tens of thousands of people have been mobilized to cultivate the land, the results are very few.

But it’s okay, the castle tower has plenty of money and materials, which can be continuously invested in reclamation.

In fact, this is the normal consumption of reclamation.

In the past, they didn’t consume it because they were completely ‘cheating’, not because reclamation doesn’t require consumption, but if they really cultivate like other people, they can feel how hard and troublesome it is.

Anyway, Uchiha Meiyi is depressed.

Faced with such internal affairs, they can’t just rush through, so they can only hand over the matter to Uchiha Yashiro, who is already very busy.

Dohei and others returned to the castle tower in this atmosphere.

There was no one to greet them.

Because they came back quietly.

The Lieyang had no intention of being exposed, so when they were a distance away from the castle tower, they jumped off the ship and took another merchant ship to enter the port.

The current castle tower does not have to worry about not being able to find a ship that is going the same way.

The daily throughput is nearly 100 ships.

You know, there was no port here before, but now there are so many ships coming here, it can only be said that the business is really driven by the castle tower.

In addition to the safety and sufficient goods here, the biggest reason is "cleanliness".

Note that the cleanliness mentioned here does not refer to hygiene.

It means that there are no bureaucrats and nobles.

Like in other ports, if you want to do business, at least half of the profit is used for management.

The original risk of maritime trade is high, and the management paid naturally greatly hit the enthusiasm of merchants.

This is also the reason why maritime trade is profitable but not lively enough.

However, these were gradually broken by the castle tower.

The emergence of ironclad ships greatly reduced the dangers at sea.

Pirates can be solved by hiring ninjas to escort, but natural disasters and storms cannot be solved by ninjas, so the emergence of ironclad ships is definitely a breakthrough for maritime trade.

If the ironclad ships are temporarily out of reach of the major chambers of commerce, then the emergence of the castle tower port directly allows the major chambers of commerce to enjoy what is called an efficient and honest business environment.

Efficiency means that the efficiency is amazingly fast, not to mention integrity. As long as the tax is paid, there is no need to make any arrangements or bribes.

With such a good business environment, it is no wonder that these chambers of commerce came here.

Purchasing/selling goods here will bring more profits than in other places, and you don’t have to suffer the anger of those officials and nobles. It is needless to say how to choose.

Step!

After landing, Tang Ping and his group wore cloaks and walked towards the distant Chashan City.

"Fresh sea fish, don't miss it if you pass by!"

"Medicinal materials from the Mountain Country, guaranteed to make you worth the money!"

"Dried sandworms from the Wind Country, sold at a low price!"

"Wagyu from the Thunder Country, supreme treasure, the last ten tons!"

…

Various hawking sounds rang in my ears.

Commercial Street!

This is a street where major chambers of commerce gather.

Originally, there were none, but later, with the development of the castle tower, major chambers of commerce also gathered here.

Not to mention other aspects, the rent alone is enough to amaze people.

However, no matter how high the rent is, it is not a problem for these chambers of commerce, because the profit from trade is so huge.

"No wonder the business income is getting higher and higher!"

Hinata Cangyue sighed as he looked at the crowded merchants on the street.

The business environment is so prosperous that they have a hard time collecting taxes.

"The reason why we can collect so much tax is entirely due to the scale!"

Tang Ping explained casually.

In fact, the tax received by Konoha is far less than that of the castle tower. It is not a problem of system and corruption. After all, ninjas are not bureaucrats, so this aspect can still be guaranteed.

The key is scale!

Konoha is located in the inland area, which leads to the use of horse-drawn carriages by all the caravans.

Even if a heavy carriage in the ninja world can pull several tons, even a large caravan has only dozens of carriages and can transport hundreds of tons of goods.

This is already a large caravan!

In the castle tower, a cargo ship can transport at least 100 tons of goods. If it is a large cargo ship, it starts from hundreds or thousands of tons.

The more goods, the more taxes will be collected.

Therefore, the economic development of port cities is far from comparable to that of inland cities.

Of course, port cities are naturally far less secure than inland cities, which can be said to have both advantages and disadvantages.

Several people came to the original Chashan City.

Due to the last joint mission incident, the original castle tower was blown away, and now a new building has been rebuilt.

The appearance is still imitating the Hokage Building, but the logo has been changed to "sun".

Now Dohei has begun to "let himself go".

Because the Hokage Building represents the existence of the "shadow".

Today he dares to use the Hokage Building, and no one dares to think about what he will do tomorrow.

At this time, in the building, Uchiha Mei is facing trouble.
