"Xie, Zhang Gu Longsheng should not be far away now."

Naruto thought for a while, and said directly to Xie beside him, "Go over there and inform him, and say that the grain you are going to sell this time will not be sold. As for the other things, after they are sold, they will all be replaced with grain and brought back."

Hearing Naruto's words, Xie rolled his eyes, thinking that he really treated himself as his subordinate.

But what can be done, Xie sighed in his heart and was ready to go.

However, at this moment, Qianli, who had been silent on the side, suddenly spoke.

"Don't be so troublesome." Qianli stopped Xie first, and then said to the elder at the side: "Elder, we should have a lot of food in there. If we take it out, it shouldn't be a problem to survive the next season, right?"

The Great Elder glanced at Qianli in surprise. He was actually going to say that just now, but he didn't expect Qianli to speak ahead of time.

You must know that Qianli didn't wait to see Naruto and the others before, but he didn't expect to ask for help this time, which really surprised the elder.

"That's right, we still have a lot of food reserves." The Great Elder looked at Naruto and said, "Master Naruto, don't worry, our food reserves will not be a problem for a year or so."

"Okay, then I'm welcome."

At the critical moment, Naruto didn't evade or be hypocritical at all, and directly accepted the help from the First Elder and the others, nodded and said:

"This amount of food is considered to be borrowed from everyone. When we are free in the future, we will return them with a certain amount of interest."

As soon as Naruto said that he wanted to pay interest, the Great Elder quickly said: "Let's forget about the interest, there's no need—"

However, Naruto directly raised his hand to signal to the Great Elder that there is no need to say more, and said with a serious expression:

"Elder, you don't need to say, one yard counts for one yard, since it involves the development of the village, then let's settle the accounts clearly as brothers.

As the saying goes, borrowing and repaying, it is not difficult to borrow again. Since everyone believes that I am willing to take out the food, I can't let everyone suffer. "

Hearing that Naruto said this, the Great Elder didn't continue to say anything, while Qianli who was beside him seemed to be surprised, as if he had expected Naruto to say that.

Now that he had a way to deal with it, Naruto simply did not do anything, and said to Yu Chengtao beside him:

"Go and talk to the statistics in the village, call all those who can go to work in the mountains, stop everything else first, and give priority to opening mountain access.

How many people can be drawn out? "

"If we use all our strength, according to the situation in the village..." After thinking for a while, Jie Chengtao said, "400 people will definitely be fine."

Now the population in Naruto Village is very young, most of them are young people in their 20s, and the rest are in their 40s and 50s. There is not a single person over [-] years old, so almost everyone in the village Can be used as labor.

"Okay, then 400 people."

Naruto made a decision directly, and said to Didara on the side: "I will give you 400 people, and you must build a mountain road of high quality as quickly as possible."

"Understood." Didara is a crazy guy himself, and seems to be infected by the emotions of the people around him at the moment, eagerly said: "Leave it to me!"

Now that the matter has been settled, everyone will disperse separately to prepare supplies and organize manpower according to Naruto's arrangement. Only Qianli and Naruto are left on the top of the mountain.

The two watched the mountain scenery side by side for a while, and then Naruto said slowly, "Qianli, you would take the initiative to help us. I didn't expect that."

"Is it strange?"

Qianli picked up a stone on the ground and threw it out on the edge of the cliff. Watching the stone draw a beautiful arc in the air and disappearing into the clouds and mists in the mountains, he said:

"Actually, I'm not as virtuous as you think. I'm doing this for myself."

"For yourself?" Naruto looked at Qianli with a smile and said, "How should I say?"

"No matter what I think of you, but one thing must be admitted, the construction of your village is much better than ours.

Everyone in the village doesn't want to go back once they come here, and so do I, after all, it's really comfortable here. "

Qianli silently looked ahead and said:

"So I thought, use the contribution points I have saved, let the people in the village help me build a bigger house, and take over my parents.

I don't want your village to be gone before I take them over.

My parents and their generation really suffered all their lives, and they were born at a time when the country of the vortex had just perished.

The generation of the Great Elder saw the glory of the country of vortex when it existed and enjoyed the benefits that the country of vortex brought to them when they were young, so it is understandable to want to go back to that time.

Because the time has passed for a long time, our generation will not be affected by the words of the Great Elder and the others, so we will leave directly and live the life we ​​want.

Only my parents and their generation were the most unlucky. They were not born when the country of vortex existed, and they did not enjoy the benefits brought by the country of vortex.

Later, as soon as the sound came out, the country of the vortex disappeared, and it had nothing to do with them, but it had to bear the heavy burden of hatred for restoring and destroying the country.

In addition, the great elders kept instilling in them the idea of ​​restoring the country, so even they themselves didn't know what they wanted, so they were dragged onto the warship of restoring the country in a daze.

Sometimes it's not worth thinking about them. "

"So, I just want them to relax a bit in the future, at least to live a good life for a few years."

Qianli looked at the clouds and mist floating quietly in the mountains, and said softly to Naruto beside him:

"What you said before is quite right, a good life is the most powerful weapon in this world and the most capable of capturing people's hearts.

This weapon has already captured me, but instead of resisting, I even want to pull my parents to surrender together. "

Listening to Chisato's words from the bottom of his heart, Naruto didn't say much, but silently looked at the scenery down the mountain, looking into the distance, as if he wanted to see the end of the horizon.

"Naruto Uzumaki...can I trust you?"

After a while of silence, Qianli suddenly asked a question, turned his head and looked at Naruto very seriously, with an inexplicable brilliance in his eyes, looked at Naruto very seriously and said word by word:

"The Great Elder lied to himself, but I know very well that you don't want to revive any country of vortexes at all.

In fact, I don't care, and I don't know what you want to do, I just want my family to live happily.

Can I trust you? "

Listening to Qianli's words from the bottom of his heart, Naruto gradually showed a sassy smile on his face, turned his head to look at the cliff beside him, and slowly stretched out his hand, as if he wanted to grasp the clouds and mist in the mountains.

"of course."

Naruto clenched his fist gently, and said in a tone that seemed to be understatement, but actually contained extremely solid strength:

"It's not just you and your family, I want everyone in the world to live the life they want." A month later, in the meeting room of the Shimizu Chamber of Commerce on the Uzumiya Island, a member of the Shimizu Chamber of Commerce on the Uzumaki Island The person in charge is calculating the project, and in a few days it will be time to report to the General Assembly, so there must be no mistakes.

At this moment, someone knocked on the door of the conference room.

"come in."

The person in charge of the Shimizu Chamber of Commerce closed the account book in his hand, then looked at the person who came in from the opposite side, and said expressionlessly:

"What's matter?"

"That's right, President."

The person who came in was a short, fat middle-aged man. While wiping the sweat from his brow, he said to the president:

"Do you still remember the group of guys who came to us to sell things a month ago, the guy who said he was from Naruto Village?"

"Naruto Village?"

The president recalled it for a while, then nodded and said:

"It's the group of guys who brought a bunch of rice to sell, what's the problem?"

As soon as the president remembered it, the chunky middle-aged man quickly said: "We suddenly discovered a while ago that the guys from Naruto Village actually came from the place where the remnants of the Uzumaki Kingdom used to be."

"I see, so what?"

The president was still thinking about the account book just now, and replied casually:

"Even if it came from there, so what, anyway, our Qingshui Chamber of Commerce has no interest in that area."

Naruto and the others settled in the hinterland of the Uzumaki Island, and the Shimizu Chamber of Commerce, as a chamber of commerce for maritime trade, paid the most attention to ports near the coast. The places where they could develop maritime trade and earn money were the places that the Shimizu Chamber of Commerce focused on.

So there has not been much attention to Naruto and his place.

"It's nothing in itself, but something happened recently, and I think I need to report it to you."

The chunky middle-aged man whispered to the president: "That Naruto village has been spreading publicity these days, saying that people from the island are welcome to visit their village, and caravans from all over the world are welcome to set up shops in their village. I heard that the caravan that goes first will give a big discount."

"Caravan? Offer?"

Hearing the short and fat middle-aged man's words, the president couldn't help but laugh, and leaned comfortably on the back of his seat and said:

"They can't even drive a carriage into that shabby place, so what kind of caravan is there, daydreaming?"

"This is the most bizarre place." The chunky middle-aged man quickly explained: "They said that they have opened up a road that is sufficient for large caravans to pass, and they will even continue to open up roads in various places in the future according to the situation."

"what?"

Hearing the words of the short and fat middle-aged man, the president finally became serious, straightened up suddenly and said:

"Are you sure the news is correct? They really opened up a road that is enough for large caravans to pass?!"

"Yes, I arranged for someone to investigate as soon as I got the news."

The chunky middle-aged man also said with an incredulous expression on his face:

"There indeed appeared a road big enough for four horses to walk abreast, and it went directly through the mountain.

What a hell, there was nothing when I watched it a month ago. "

"Pass it directly from the mountain? And there was nothing a month ago?" The president's expression gradually became serious: "What is the origin of this group of people..."

Originally, the Shimizu Chamber of Commerce didn't care about Naruto's appearance. Anyway, they just need to ensure control of the port and be able to do business.

As for who came to this island and who left, as long as they don't interfere with their business, the Qingshui Chamber of Commerce won't bother to talk to them.

But now this situation can't help the chairman of Shimizu Chamber of Commerce doesn't care anymore. After all, being able to surpass the power of this kind of miraculous project within a month is definitely not a simple role, and it is definitely not something that can be ignored power.

At this moment, the president had already forgotten about the account books, looked at the subordinates in front of him, and suddenly asked a question: "If you are asked to open up such a road within a month, can you do it?"

"This....."

Hearing the president's question, the chunky middle-aged man showed an embarrassed look on his face and said:

"It's not impossible, but it may require more manpower.

At least... 5000 people, right? "

"5000 people..." The president didn't show any expression, just nodded and said, "It's about the same as I estimated. Is it possible that there are so many people in this village?"

"Could it be that they actually hide a lot of people that we don't know?" The short, fat middle-aged man thought for a while and said, "Didn't we all know that place before?"

"It's not like..." The president shook his head solemnly and said, "According to our information, that place doesn't look like it can support so many people..."

The chunky middle-aged man looked at the dignified president, and tried to suggest: "Then, should we intensify the investigation of that Naruto village and send a few more experienced spies?"

"Not for now." The president shook his head directly and said: "The forces that can only do this kind of thing in a month cannot be underestimated. Before we have a specific conflict with them, unilateral action will only make the situation worse." Worse."
