Chapter 46: Still want to get chapter deductions?

Chapter 46 Still want kickbacks?
"I am over-flattered!"

"This is just a trivial trick."

"Not just any random person is qualified to challenge Konoha."

Uchiha Kusunoki was modest with a forced smile, and his scarlet Sharingan looked at the Daimyo, making the Daimyo feel creepy.

"That's it, that's it!"

"Who in the entire ninja world doesn't know the fame of the Uchiha Sharingan?"

The daimyo nodded in agreement, having understood the implication of Uchiha Kusunoki's words. Even though Konoha's strength was not as strong as before, it was still undoubtedly the strongest in the entire Land of Fire.

"Someone, carry Xuankong away!"

"Looking at things that are worthless!"

Daimyo turned his head, and the smiling expression on his face changed instantly. He directly called on his men to drag away Xuankong, who had fallen to the ground.

Seeing that the purpose of the demonstration was achieved, Uchiha Nan no longer had a stern face, but smiled again and started to have an enthusiastic conversation with the daimyo.

The topics discussed were varied.

The daimyo complained about the difficulty of governing the country.

His ministers deceived their superiors, falsified accounts, seized land, refused to pay taxes, and embezzled his money.

This is all my money!
Uchiha Nan pretended to agree with him and also lamented how difficult it was for him.

It's hard to be a ninja, and it's even harder to be a Hokage!
Rolling among swords and guns, and being immersed in wind and fire, if you are not careful you will die.

Sometimes people share the same joys and sorrows, and the daimyo and Uchiha Nan chatted about this rambling topic.

As men, they can talk about everything from history to military affairs, from military affairs to aliens, and then to the origin of the universe, and they are free and unrestrained, but in the end, it always ends up talking about women.

"Are you satisfied with the gift I gave the Hokage yesterday?"

The daimyo had a smile on his face that all men understood, and Uchiha Nan naturally smiled at each other, and all the answers were self-evident.

"If the Hokage likes this kind of thing, I'm here."

The daimyo's eyes turned and he extended an invitation to Uchiha Nan. Women are the least valuable thing to people like them.

If the daimyo can contribute a little to improve the relationship with Uchiha Nan, he will do his best to meet Uchiha Nan's requirements.

Uchiha Nan suddenly thought of the three widows' evil mission in his mind, but he rejected it instantly.

So perverted!

Uchiha Nan didn't want to lose his remaining moral integrity.

“No, no.”

"Don't be greedy!"

Uchiha Nan shook his head repeatedly to reject the daimyo's kindness. The daimyo was a little disappointed, but did not show it.

After chatting with the daimyo for a while, when it was time for lunch, the daimyo naturally asked Uchiha Nan to stay in the palace to eat.

Uchiha Nan would naturally not refuse since he was already here, and the chef raised by the daimyo was really good!

After lunch, Uchiha Nan certainly did not forget to pack a portion for Feng and Ling in the room. This was a delicacy that only daimyo could enjoy, and it was probably the first time for the two sisters to taste it.

The two sisters stood cautiously in the room waiting for Uchiha Nan. It was said that the big man in front of them was a ninja and the Hokage of Konoha!
They are not very familiar with the title of Hokage, but when it comes to Ninja, they know it very well!
They had not only heard of but also seen with their own eyes how the wandering ninjas could unleash deadly ninjutsu with a simple move of their hands, and how they could wantonly kill civilians.

"Thank you, Master."

Feng was the braver older sister and took the initiative to take the box full of food. Although the food had been covered, the aroma still came out of the box.

"Gulu!"

The two sisters swallowed their saliva. They were tormented by Uchiha Nan for half the night yesterday and had not eaten much breakfast. Now they were very hungry, but still did not open the lunch boxes.

They didn't dare to do anything until Uchiha Nan said something.

"Eat it, what do you want me to do?"

"There's a cream cake at the bottom. I thought you might like it, so I brought some for you."

"I have something else to do. After lunch, stay in your room and don't run around." Uchiha Nan gave some instructions and walked out the door. He still had to take the daimyo's note to the Ministry of Finance to get funds.

As soon as Uchiha Nan left, the two sisters couldn't wait to open the box and enjoy the delicious food.

"Sister, the cake is so sweet!"

Ling picked up the cake and licked the cream on it. It was soft and sweet.

Sugar is a rare commodity. These days, it is considered good if ordinary people can have enough to eat and not starve to death. Sugar is something only the rich and powerful are qualified to enjoy.

Not to mention the cream cake!
"Ah."

Feng nodded. The sweetness in his mouth diluted some of his fear of facing the future. It seemed that his master was a good person!

Uchiha Nan walked out of the palace and came to the Ministry of Finance with the note approved by the daimyo.

Ministry of Finance

The room was filled with account books. In front of each clerk was a pile of account books. The abacus in their hands kept moving, making a ticking sound.

A middle-aged man in a black robe, with a big belly, was drinking tea slowly, doing nothing there.

So free?
That must be the person in charge!
"Where is your minister?"

Uchiha Nan walked straight up to the man and said.

The man looked up and saw Uchiha Nan wearing the divine robe, and immediately stood up to greet him with a smile on his face.

"The minister is working in the inner room. I will take the Hokage to meet him right away."

Uchiha Nan nodded and followed him into the room, where he saw the minister who was also drinking tea.

The Minister of Finance immediately greeted Uchiha Nan with a smile when he saw him, and Uchiha Nan stated his purpose directly.

"This, this is a bit difficult, Hokage-sama!"

When the Minister of Finance heard that he would be given 32 billion taels, the smile on his face immediately froze and turned into a bitter face.

"The treasury is out of money. We have to provide relief to disaster victims and take in refugees. This year there was a drought in the north and a flood in the south."

He came up with all kinds of excuses, the simple thing being that he had no money. He didn't say he wouldn't pay and would just drag it out.

Grass!
Damn insects!
The Minister of Finance rubbed his hands secretly, and it was obvious that he wanted benefits. He even dared to cut a layer of the military budget of the ninja village, right?

It’s really about money rather than life!
"One million taels!"

Uchiha Nan raised a finger and stated his offer. This man was the Minister of Finance and a high-ranking official of the Land of Fire, so he still had to do some social etiquette.

"cut"

The Minister of Finance chuckled and raised five fingers again.

"Fifty million taels!"

court death?

Uchiha Nan has already opened his Sharingan, how dare he embezzle money like this?

"Don't get angry, Hokage-sama. This is the old rule. I didn't ask for anything more."

"Don't worry, we will cooperate with you wherever we can. The accounts we prepared for your Ministry of Finance are flawless. No one can tell!"

Uchiha Nan smiled slightly and the Sharingan appeared.

A moment later, the Minister of Finance got up from the ground trembling all over, his eyes full of fear. He did not mention the kickbacks at all. The whole process of transferring money, cooking the books, and getting various receipts was completed at a lightning speed.

"What a bitch!"

Hart!

Uchiha Nan spat in the Finance Minister's face and walked out of the room without looking back.

"Please walk slowly, walk slowly!"

 Although it's a bit late, I wish you brothers a happy Qixi Festival
