Poverty Alleviation Princess

"……What did you say?"

When hearing the report from his subordinates for the first time, the first Mizukage Bailian thought that he was getting old and had heard it wrong.

"Yes... it's the feedback from below that Hokage-sama from Konoha Village is currently buying...buying seafood from the fishermen on the shore."

The ninjas who came to report also felt very magical.

Nothing else.

But this is Hokage.

Not only is he the patriarch of one of the strongest ninja clans, the Senju clan, but he also changed the survival mode of ninjas for thousands of years by himself, and promoted a huge reform in the ninja world.

No matter from which angle you look at it, they are all well-deserved strongest ninjas in the world.

So much so that it can be said that the world can have the status quo without large-scale battles like it is now, and it is because of his existence that it can be maintained.

How could such a person come to the Land of Water just to buy some seafood?

——There must be something deep in it.

Bai Lian stroked her bushy gray and white beard in thought.

Maybe it's some kind of conspiracy.

Do you want to hear the secrets of Wuyin Village?Or do you want to cooperate with Wuyin Village to deal with other ninja villages?

Bai Lian couldn't figure it out, he felt that any of them was possible, but none of them was possible.

The former is not enough - if Senshou Zhuma really has any ideas about Wuyin Village, with his power, he can use more direct means.As for cooperation with Wuyin Village.

That's even stranger.

The Land of Water is surrounded by the sea. It is different from other countries. Because of the large number of islands and the short distance between the islands, the residents of each place have their own heritage and customs.Nor is it as closely linked as other countries.

It's not that Bailian is pessimistic or unconfident, but that a loose structure like the Kingdom of Water, which is difficult to unify and command, is not a good choice for alliances, at least not the first choice.

Coupled with the fact that there is a natural barrier of the ocean between the country of water and other countries, it is very inconvenient for people from their past or other countries to get here.

Unless you want to deal with the ninjas of the Land of Earth who have been at war all year round-after all, the enemy of the enemy can be a friend.However, I have never heard of the news that the country of fire is going to fight with the country of earth.

"Has the person following been discovered?" Bai Lian frowned, making the scar across her eyes even more hideous. "No, he must have found out."

That is the Thousand Hands Column Room.

"Send people to continue to follow, but don't get too close. Before I pass by and the other party does not act aggressively, let them not act rashly." It would be bad if it became a handle.

To be able to become Mizukage, apart from her own formidable strength, it is more because Bailian possesses reason and judgment enough to convince others.

As Bai Lian spoke, she picked up the Mizukage hat representing the leader of Wuyin Village on the table and stood up.

"I'm going to meet him myself."

Let's see what purpose this Hokage-sama has.

And this "Hokage-sama", who made the entire Wuyin Village panic-stricken, was happily following behind the "Golden Master" to pick and choose in the seafood market in the country of water, and selected commodity suppliers.

As an island country facing the sea on all sides, the Land of Water has a well-developed fishery that is unmatched by other countries. Many seafood delicacies that are rarely seen in other inland countries can be seen everywhere in the seafood market here.

"Fresh fish! Sea fish just caught this morning!"

"Big fish! Come and see our big fish!"

"Look at the freshly delivered oysters! They are so fat! Aren't there a few guests here?"

The oysters slapped by adults are grilled on a special shelf, and the juice is overflowing, and the air is filled with the unique fresh aroma of grilled seafood.

This is a taste that is difficult to appear in other places, and it is also a scenery that cannot be seen elsewhere.

All kinds of sea fish are as small as the length of a thumb and as big as a person's height, filling the entire fishing boat seafood market.

Yes, it is said to be a 'seafood market', but in fact, the fishing boats near the shore each put out their own harvest for people to choose.

Thinking that he hadn't eaten seafood in the real world for a long time, A Yuan simply wrapped up all the oysters in the store.Anyway, there are quite a few people on her side, so I'm not afraid that they won't be able to finish eating.

Qianshou Zhujian was still looking around.

"This fish! I remember it was very expensive."

He pointed to a pile of beautifully colored fish in the corner.

"I saw it in a big nobleman's house. At that time, only the head of the family could enjoy it." He was very moved when he saw this—the expensive delicacies that only the head of the family could eat in the big nobles were common goods on fishing boats here.

It cannot be said that it is worthless, but it cannot be called [precious].

"It's just that the place is different, but there is such a huge difference..."

Of course he understands such things as buying low and selling high. After all, he also escorted the caravan's goods, but he never thought that there would be such a big difference.

"So I think it's better to discover new business opportunities than to lick blood."

A Yuan swallowed the delicious and juicy oyster meat, and replied while hissing hot.

"Of course, it may still be difficult for you to directly intervene in the market as businessmen, but cooperation should be no problem."

"Cooperation?"

"Yeah—for example, like what I'm going to do, entrust the Ninja with good water skills in the land of water to pick pearls, or to catch..."

"Lobster! Fresh lobster!"

Just when Ah Yuan was about to say 'lobster', a louder yell came from a newly rowed fishing boat nearby.Immediately afterwards, the already bustling seafood market became even more lively, and countless people flocked from all directions to the boat where the lobster came out.

Seeing the excitement over there, A Yuan and his party naturally looked over.

"Lobster! Their family is very brave."

The shopkeeper who was grilling oysters for Ah Yuan also looked over in surprise.

"What happened to the lobster?"

Senju Hashirama, who was born in the inland, asked curiously.

"It's very dangerous for people to go down to the bottom of the sea to catch lobsters." The shopkeeper shook his head. "If one fails, people will die. So even if they know that this product is good and expensive, few people take the risk to catch it."

After all, those who go to sea are the strong laborers of the family, and only when they are alive can they continue to earn money. Even if they earn less at a time, they can always support the family after more times.

The profit of lobster is huge, but this thing is not easy to live in, and it can only be sold at a good price if it is sold immediately.Coupled with the high risk, once the problem goes wrong, the whole family may collapse because of it, so except for the bold people with high skills and those who are in urgent need of money, almost no one will take the risk.

Because it is such a life-threatening gamble, although the boss is a little envious, he is not jealous.

"Come on, your oysters are ready, take them!"

The boss said that the baked oysters were packaged and handed over.

After thanking Hashirama, he consciously took the big bag of oysters and followed Ah Yuan to the next stall.Eat whatever you want, but the main purpose of their visit today is business investigation.

From the type of fish to the price to the approximate output, always have a number in mind.

After all, the job of catching pearls and lobsters can be handed over to the ninjas in the land of water, but the most taboo of making money is that the family dominates. Other ninjas don't talk about eating meat together, they still have to have a bite of soup.

"So you want to say that letting the ninjas switch jobs and compete with the fishermen is the solution you came up with?"

The man in the cloak behind him spoke ironically.

If someone can lift the cap of the cloak, they will find that the man under the cloak is Uchiha Madara who has disappeared for a long time in this world.

He frowned, beginning to feel that he had made a complete mistake following them here.

It can even be said to be stupid.

"……of course not."

A Yuan gave him a strange look.

"You can't just have seafood in your eyes just because you see the seafood is good."

A Yuan looked at him like he was looking at a child who had never gone out and gained experience, and felt very good when he saw something new.

"There are delicacies in the mountains, delicious seafood in the sea, and good things unique to the plains on the plains. As a human being, sometimes you have to be bolder and more innovative."

Because she walked to a place with few people, she didn't have to worry about whether her actions would hinder others, so she simply stopped.

"……puff."

Senju Bashima couldn't help laughing when he saw that Madara was being said that despite his age.

Then, without accident, he was hit by Madara.

Speaking of why Uchiha Madara is here, we have to start from that night.

After being asked by Yuan, Uchiha Madara thought for a long time.

He has had many pursuits in his life.

I want to become stronger, I want to be able to protect my people, and I want to block all the ups and downs alone.I also thought about being able to build a village with Zhujian without sending children to the battlefield. I wanted to believe that even people from different families who have different ideas and wishes can treat each other honestly.

I even thought that it would be nice if the ninjas would not have to fight anymore.

But when he was really asked 'what do you want', there was only a blank in his mind.

Is it powerful enough?Or can people be honest with each other?

Should the children not be sent to the battlefield, or should there be no more wars?

Or something else, something bigger... or something smaller?

He couldn't answer.

Then it was used by the strange girl in front of her, 'Since you don't know, why don't you try it out. 'Bring it out in a daze.

"Anyway, Hashirama is the only obstacle to destroying Konoha for you, isn't it? Doesn't it make no difference if you start early or late? Are you afraid that if you give them enough time to prepare, you won't be able to defeat them?"

——How did you come back after hearing those words?

It seems like a 'joke, how is it possible. '

Looking back now, I probably fell into the opponent's trap from this fact.

Uchiha Madara closed his eyes.

This woman is as good at inciting others as Hashirama—even from the perspective of 'inducing and inciting', she is even better than Hashirama.

Because she doesn't just say it, she knows how to do it.

Unlike Hashirama who "starts with an alliance first", she guides people step by step from the beginning to the direction she wants, and then achieves an extremely attractive result that she described.

As long as you work hard, you can reap the rewards and achieve your goals.

This is undoubtedly an irresistible temptation for most people—especially ninjas.

Even, even myself occasionally have the idea of ​​'this might work'.

But this is not possible.

He closed his eyes and said no more.

He already knew it, didn't he?

Only unlimited monthly reading is the only way to save the world.

is the only salvation for all.

...it's time to end this.

Uchiha Madara opened his eyes suddenly, and at the same time, several figures approached from all around.

"Master Hokage is here." An old man with gray beard came out from behind, "We are flattered, but please tell us the purpose, don't make it difficult for us."

The old man—Bai Lian looked straight at the group of people in front of her with slightly cloudy eyes.

"Otherwise, even if we all die here, we will have to maintain the dignity of the Water Country and the Hidden Mist Village."

The author has something to say: Ah Yuan: You are such an adult, you need to broaden your horizons.
