You Know Nothing About Pain

Thinking of the dilapidated muddy roads and dirty houses in my original village, the roads were full of urine and feces from livestock and children.

Look at the spacious and tidy main road here, the rows of clean and tidy houses, the flowers and plants on the side of the road, and even the public toilets.

All these let Qianli understand that she has already gotten used to the comfortable life here.

"Now that you have figured it out, if you think about your previous question now, you should have an answer.

Is it the trajectory I used, or is this place really good, so it attracts young people from your village to come here. "

Naruto looked at Chisato who was stunned in place, smiled and patted the other party's head and said:

"Thousands of miles, you have to remember one thing. A better life is what everyone is pursuing. This is the most powerful weapon to capture others..."

Today was the day Naruto and the others went out to trade. A group of people came to bring the food that the villagers had worked hard for several months, and some miscellaneous things that they thought could be sold.

After saying goodbye for a while, Hase Longsheng set off with dozens of people, and their goal was the largest port on the island of Uzumaki.

That port is controlled by the Shimizu Chamber of Commerce. It is not only the largest port, but also the largest trading market on the island.

The purpose of Chang Gu Longsheng this time is not to make a lot of money, but just to get acquainted, and at the same time to test the attitude of the three major forces on the island towards them.

Naruto didn't follow him this time. Firstly, with Hase Ryusheng's strength as a zhongnin, plus the guards of some teenagers and girls who already have the power of genin, theoretically it is enough to guard some food. You must know that many large caravans You can't even invite a Chunin-level guard.

The second is that Naruto feels that Hase Ryusheng needs to be trained to be independent, and he has more important things to do now.

Naruto brought Xie, Didara, Jie Chengtao, Qianli and the Great Elder to a high mountain.

"Is it here?"

Naruto looked up at the high mountain in front of him, and said to the Great Elder behind him: "With this high mountain blocking it, as long as the important checkpoints are guarded, it is really difficult for outsiders to come in in large numbers."

The place where Naruto and the others are located is actually a basin, surrounded by mountains. If you want to enter, you must cross these mountains, which is why the forces outside have not been able to attack.

With these high mountains as intervals, it is difficult for large groups of people to drive into the mountains. If they are forced to move out, as long as a few people are arranged to do some tricks on the mountains, all the people who move out may be wiped out.

Only a small number of people can come in, so the Great Elder and the others can rely on the number of hundreds of people in their own village, and make the three major forces outside with the smallest number of tens of thousands helpless.

But this time Naruto's purpose is not to strengthen the defense, on the contrary, he wants to open a road into the mountain.

"Master Naruto, is this really all right..."

The Great Elder following Naruto frowned, and said with a worried expression on his face:

"If you really open up a road sufficient for caravans and carriages as you said, then when those people outside want to capture this place, a large number of people will come in, and it will be difficult to deal with..."

Because the person who decided to do this is Naruto, the words of the Great Elder are quite tactful. If someone else said that they should remove the natural dangers they depend on for survival, the Great Elder would point at the nose and scold the other party. Not mentally retarded.

Such a good heaven-sent level is not necessary, it is necessary to open a road, let alone the difficulty of opening a road in the mountains, just take the initiative to remove one's own natural danger, it is not a problem with the brain.

"I admit that the surrounding mountains have helped us a lot, but you also have to think about one problem.

It's not easy for others to come in, and it's also not good for us to go out. "

Naruto shook his head and said:

"Let's talk about the fact that Zhang Gu Longsheng took people out for trade this time. It took nearly half a month to travel for a short distance, and the people lost countless losses from eating horse chews.

Three thousand catties of grain were taken from the village, and only two thousand catties were left in the market, and one-third of it was lost before it was sold. Who could bear that?

And this is because we have relatively few things, otherwise we would not be able to transport them out.

If you can open a flat road, you can go to the outside city in less than three days. The time and resources saved are immeasurable. "

To get rich, build roads first.

This is an eternal truth. Only by increasing exchanges and communication with the outside world can the village become more and more prosperous. Otherwise, it will always be closed in its own small circle and will die sooner or later.

"But..." The Great Elder looked at Naruto, opened his mouth, and said in a deliberate tone, "Even if you can make a little more money, if someone calls in, you won't have to ask for so much money... .”

"It's not just about making more money."

Naruto looked at the mountain in front of him, narrowed his eyes slightly and said: "If you want to use a broader future, then you must bravely go out and meet the outside world. This is the best way to become stronger."

If a power wants to become stronger, what it needs most are all kinds of resources, population, food, steel, all of which are indispensable.

And it also requires large-scale and complete industrial capabilities. Only in this way can the required materials be continuously produced under the condition of sufficient resources.

Fighting wars is actually fighting for resources. The Great Elder thinks that Naruto is giving up his natural insurance to make money, which is short-sighted.

But he didn't know that Naruto thought more than he did and saw farther. He thought he was on the second floor and Naruto was on the first floor, but in fact Naruto was already on the fifth floor.

As for the future safety issue, Naruto has already considered it. While selecting suitable young people from his side and the elders to train, he went to the outside world to find support.

The reason why Sasuke didn't show up for several days was because he had been sent out by Naruto to find someone.

After spending half a day exploring the environment of the high mountain in front of him, Naruto led his people to stand on the top of the mountain, and said to Didara beside him, "How about it, can it be done?"

After several months of trimming, Scorpion has helped Didara create a qualified puppet body, and now Didara is no different from before whether he speaks or releases ninjutsu.

"Cut, it's just a small hill, of course it can be done."

Hearing Naruto's words, Deidara curled his lips, flicked his hair and said:

"Give me an afternoon, and I can raze this place to the ground. If you're really in a hurry, an hour is enough."

"I don't want to be razed to the ground."

Naruto patted Didara on the head to signal that he was more serious, and then said:

"I mean, without destroying the overall structure of the mountain, is it possible to dig out a stable tunnel leading to the outside world in the mountain?"

"this......."

Hearing Naruto's request, Didara frowned, thought for a while and said, "It can be done, it's just..."

Although Didala usually bluffs and says nothing but that explosions are art, he is also a genius like a scorpion.

It's just that Scorpion's talent is to make puppets, and Didala's talent is to blow things up.

So Didala may not be very sure about other things, but he is a master at bombing things, especially controlling the direction and power of the explosion, that is, he can blow up whatever he wants.

"Just what?" Looking at Didala who hesitated to speak, Naruto urged: "If you have any questions, please tell me."

"It's just that I can't handle this job alone."

Didara spread his hands and said:

"I can think of a way to blow up a passage, but if I want to make the kind of passage you mentioned that is stable enough for caravans to pass through, then there will be a lot of preparations for the explosion.

It is necessary to dig out vacancies in various places before finding a suitable detonation point, and sometimes it is necessary to manually control the direction of the detonation..."

"Okay, you don't have to explain so much to me." Naruto waved his hand directly and said, "Just say how many people you want."

Hearing Naruto's words, Didara rolled his eyes and said, "That depends on how long it takes you to finish."

"One month." Naruto replied after thinking for a while, "How many people are needed for one month?"

"One month..."

Hearing Naruto's request, Didara took a closer look at the mountain, even squatted down to squeeze the soil, and knocked on the rocks beside him, then stretched out two fingers and said:

"200 people, at least 200 people are needed, and it is a non-stop work, and only if there are no accidents, can we have a chance to get through the mountain within a month."

"it is good!"

Naruto agreed to Didala's request without hesitation, and then said to Jie Chengtao behind him:

"A Tao, how many people are there in our village now?"

Hearing Naruto's question, Jie Chengtao replied almost without thinking: "We brought 290 seven people here, plus the 280 three people who moved from Qianli's village a few days ago, and threw away the 50 people who were taken away by Zhang Gulongsheng. There are 430 people still in the village.”

Since the Great Elder visited the village organization last time, I thought that there would only be 30 people at most, but I didn't expect that the young people in their village were very active, and 80 people came at once.

Later, these 80 or [-] people came to the village and enjoyed the life of Naruto Village. Occasionally, when they went back, they would brag with their partners in the village, which instantly attracted other young people, and even many middle-aged people were a little moved.

So everyone applied to the Great Elder to work and live in Naruto's village, and Naruto would not refuse these people. In the end, almost half of the people in the Great Elder's village came to Naruto's village.

"430 people..."

Naruto recited this number silently, then looked at the elder at the side and said, "Elder, how did you arrange to inform the survivors of the other Uzumaki countries on the island?"

Earlier, the Great Elder asked Naruto if he could send a message to other people on the island who still have ideas about Uzumaki, asking them to move over to support Naruto.

Population is the most important thing for development, so Naruto will naturally not refuse the request of the Great Elder.

As for whether too many people will cause confusion or disagreement, Naruto is not too worried. He believes that as long as they come and experience the life here, even if they are driven away, they will not want to leave. .

"Things about the Remnants..."

Hearing Naruto's question, the Great Elder said in an embarrassed tone:

"I contacted six old friends from the past, but only three replied to me, and only one of them said that they would like to move here, but there may only be more than 100 people, and they are all old, weak, sick and disabled..."

"It may be that many of them have moved. I don't know." The elder quickly added: "I will write a few letters to them later and try."

"No need." Naruto shook his head and said, "Come if you want to, and forget it if you don't want to. There's no need to force it."

In fact, this situation is also expected by Naruto. After all, the country of Uzumaki has been destroyed for decades, and time has changed. People like the Great Elder who cling to the things of the past are only a minority. "In other words, there are now 430 people in the village..."

Then Naruto looked at Didara and said, "Not only 200 people, I will give you 300 people! You must promise to build the road for me within one month."

"300 people?"

Jie Chengtao on the side heard Naruto's words, showed a worried look and said:

"Then there are only 130 people left in the village. It will be time to plant rice in a few days. I am afraid that there may not be enough people..."

It will soon be time for the next season of rice planting. If a large amount of manpower is allocated to build roads at this time, and the timing of rice planting is missed, Naruto and the others are likely to face food shortages.

"I know what you said, and I will think of a way afterwards." Naruto said to Jie Chengtao, "But the opening of the mountain road cannot be delayed. The sooner the road is opened, the sooner we can benefit."

The place Naruto and the others are in is safe, but it is too closed, and there are no things needed for further development.

After several months of development, Naruto found that the current development speed of the village has gradually stagnated.

After all, after the initial period when there was nothing, everyone seems to have nothing else to do except to build houses in various fields.

For Naruto, this level of development obviously cannot meet his needs.

For further development, suitable professionals and various basic equipment are indispensable. For example, electricity is obviously not something that Naruto and the others can handle.

Electricity is a necessary resource in modern society. If there is no electricity, no amount of development will be done in primitive society.

Therefore, if you want to further enhance the strength and heritage of your village, communication with the outside world is a must.

This time Naruto must take a chance, even at the risk of a possible food crisis.
