In a week, the census work conducted by Asakawa Naoki and four people was almost completed.

After returning to the Hidden Rain Village and summarizing the data, Asakawa Naoki learned that the Rain Country currently has only nearly 2.9 million people.

Years of war have reduced the population of the Rain Country by nearly half.

"Your mission experience has been recorded. This is the bounty for your mission. Take a good rest after completing the mission."

Asakawa Naoki handed four paper bags to the four people. Each paper bag contained 20,000 taels. The four people had a total of 80,000 taels, which was considered to have completed a C-level mission.

"Teacher, you are doing this mission. We didn't do much. Let's not ask for the bounty." Nagato said.

"No, ninjas must have a bounty for doing missions, otherwise there will be no motivation." Asakawa Naoki laughed.

"Then we want to treat the teacher to a grilled fish meal!" Xiaonan changed his mind and said.

"Haha, this is possible." Asakawa Naoki laughed.

Amidst the laughter and joy, Asakawa Naoki took four disciples to a grilled fish restaurant for a big meal.

The climate of the Rain Country determines that it is difficult to grow food, but fish is very abundant and there is no shortage of fish meat.

Yahiko, Konan and Nagato, who were born and raised in the Rain Country, all like to eat fish. Uzumaki Kaori and Asakawa Naoki have gradually become accustomed to the taste of grilled fish in the Rain Country.

With the completion of the census, the economic sanctions of the daimyos of various countries have gradually been implemented, and the surrounding countries have begun to impose a ban on sales to the Rain Country.

When the ban began, many people in the Rain Country were still a little panicked, and even many places began to buy frantically, wanting to spend money quickly to prevent money from not being able to buy things in the future.

Fortunately, the merchants in the Rain Country stockpiled a lot of goods and raw materials in advance. After many people found that there was no shortage of materials after the rush to buy, this panic gradually decreased.

But Asakawa Naoki knew that those goods and raw materials stockpiled in advance would not last long, and there would be shortages in a few years at most.

However, it is not certain that the economic sanctions imposed by those daimyo can last for a few years.

Nowadays, the most critical issue for the Rain Country is not the shortage of materials, but the direct destruction of the supply and demand relationship!

Although the workers can continue to manufacture goods because of the raw materials hoarded in advance, they cannot sell them, that is, there is only supply but no demand.

This is very dangerous. If it is not handled properly, it is more dangerous than the economic crisis.

The economic crisis of Blue Star in the previous life was just a large-scale unemployment, and this direct destruction of the supply and demand relationship will cause everyone to lose their jobs.

Therefore, Asakawa Naoki decided to start the era of large-scale infrastructure construction in the Rain Country!

After years of war, the Rain Country can be said to be full of gullies and broken walls everywhere.

With the help of census data, under the calculation of the top leaders of the Hidden Rain Village, except for the part of the personnel who ensure the needs of the Rain Country to continue their work, the rest of the people have been invested in the restoration and development of infrastructure.

Relying on the materials hoarded in advance, the Rain Country pays wages, with the Rain Ninjas as the main force and the people as auxiliary, the infrastructure of the entire Rain Country is recovering rapidly.

"Hey, Ishiguchi, come on, our team's mission depends on you." A Rain Ninja patted his companion on the shoulder and encouraged him.

"You two, you really treat me like an animal!" Ishiguchi complained.

"No way, who can do it? You are the only one in our team who can do earth escape." Another teammate agreed.

"Got it!" Ishiguchi said helplessly:

"I'll rest for a while and get to work right away."

After recovering his chakra for a while, Ishiguchi quickly formed a seal and then pressed his hands on the ground.

"Earth escape, earth leveling technique!"

With the activation of the earth escape ninjutsu, the uneven ground around him began to level quickly.

"It's worthy of Ishiguchi!"

"Come on, Ishiguchi!"

Looking at the two teammates who were shouting 666 beside him, Ishiguchi's face turned a lot darker.

"Hey! You two should work together!" Ishiguchi shouted:

"You can use water escape, so help me loosen the surrounding land first and reduce my pressure!"

"Got it!"

The two teammates sprayed two water jets to loosen the surrounding land a little.

When they leveled the surrounding ground and prepared to take a break, the road-paving team behind them was almost catching up.

"Ishiguchi, speed up, Murata and the others are catching up!" the teammate reminded.

"So fast? Murata and the others are the real beasts!" Ishiguchi complained, mobilizing the chakra in his body, and continued to level the surrounding land to prepare for paving the road behind.

After Asakawa Naoki started the infrastructure construction of the Rain Country, except for those ninjas guarding the border of the Rain Country, the task of the Rain Ninjas was no longer to guard the caravan, spying on intelligence, assassinating the enemy, but all invested in infrastructure.

Therefore, ninjas like Ishiguchi who can do earth escape have become popular in a blink of an eye, and can perform any infrastructure tasks well.

Especially Murata behind, who is an innate civil and wood holy body, with water escape and earth escape chakra. Although his strength is not strong, he can directly spray out cement-like mud. He is simply an innate road paving holy body!

So, the Ishiguchi team leveled the road in front, while the Murata team sprayed cement to pave the road in the back, and there were ordinary people behind Murata to cooperate and rest.

With the cooperation of the two ninja teams, the road paving team moved very fast, and the road connecting the two cities was quickly formed.

When the day's mission was over, the main ninjas of the two teams, Ishiguchi and Murata, were almost exhausted.

"Murata, do you have to work so hard?" Ishiguchi asked puzzledly.

"It's okay. After all, this is an A-level mission issued by Lord Akiba himself." Murata said with some emotion:

"If it was before, with my strength as an ordinary Chunin, I would not be able to accept A-level missions at all."

"Besides, this A-level mission is not dangerous. There is no need to worry about sneak attacks by enemies. It's just more tiring."

"As long as I complete a few more A-level missions, I can also exchange for the stigmata refined by Lord Akiba. With the power of the stigmata, I may be able to take the opportunity to be promoted to a special jonin."

At this point, Ishiguchi saw something called "hope" in Murata's eyes.

"So that's it." Ishiguchi gradually understood Murata's idea.

Murata is not young anymore, and his strength is not strong. If nothing unexpected happens, he may never be promoted to a jonin in his lifetime.

But if he can exchange for stigmata with the contribution points of several A-level missions, he may be promoted to a special jonin.

If you become a special jonin, both the treatment and reputation will be greatly improved.

People live for fame and fortune, and so do ninjas.

Moreover, I heard that Murata has a child who just went to the Ninja School in the Rain Country some time ago. I'm afraid Murata is working so hard for the sake of his child.

"Maybe I should work hard too." Ishiguchi encouraged himself.
