Chapter 68 Everyone, I have a proposal to make a lot of money!
Just a few days had passed since the Senju Tobirama was dealt with, and Uchiha Nan was still thinking about how to embezzle some funds to build a laboratory under some pretext.
A piece of information from the Anbu made Uchiha Nan's pupils shrink.
会议 室
An emergency meeting
Uchiha Nan sat in the seat in the center with a solemn expression, and all the Konoha high-level officials present looked sad.
They were very familiar with emergency meetings of this level, as they would hold one whenever a large-scale war was about to break out.
Even Uzumaki Mito, who has always been at odds with Uchiha Nan, came to today's emergency meeting, which shows that the scale of this war is not small.
"According to reliable intelligence, there have been unusual movements in the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Rock Village. If nothing unexpected happens, the target is us."
After Uchiha Nan finished speaking, the temperature in the room seemed to drop a lot, and everyone's expression was as cold as ice.
The war has begun again.
It's only been a short while since I've lived in peace.
"We have to find a way to avoid war."
"Konoha is fighting on two fronts at the same time. We can no longer afford such a huge cost."
Hinata Takuma's voice was heard, and everyone present nodded in agreement when they heard Hinata Takuma's opinion.
War means death and costs money, but within a few days of receiving the funds, they have to be spent again. God, please don't be so cruel.
The Konohagakure Ninja Clan has shed enough blood and spent a huge amount of money, and now the war-weariness is high.
Uchiha Nan looked at everyone present expressing their opinions and began to think internally.
The First Ninja World War was a huge melee. Each ninja village was made up of ninja clans, and they all had grudges against each other. As long as there was a chance to take down the other side, they would not let go of the opportunity.
This is also the reason why Konoha can survive. If the four ninja villages really united together with a common hatred of the enemy to attack Konoha, Konoha would probably have been unable to bear it long ago.
第一次忍界大战上半阶段，最穷的风之国砂隐村被木叶揍了一顿后偃鼓息声，躲在家里面舔舐伤口，现在还被风之国砍了经费。
Now it is estimated that they still have to rely on the Kazekage's magnetic escape to pan for gold in the desert to survive, and they must also reduce the number of ninjas to reduce expenses.
The fewer the number of ninjas, the weaker the ninja village. Once the strength is weak, the daimyo will not be willing to invest money. But now there is no money to train ninjas, so the only thing to do is to reduce the number of ninjas. The Sand Village is caught in a chronic death spiral.
The Sand Village is nothing to be afraid of.
After the first attack by the Hidden Mist Village and the Hidden Iwa Village was repelled by Konoha, they temporarily retreated and maintained low-intensity friction on the border.
On the contrary, the Hidden Cloud Village fought like crazy from the first half to the second half, chasing after Konoha. No one knew what was wrong with them.
Konoha's main target of war is actually the Hidden Cloud Village. However, now the Hidden Cloud Village, like Konoha, has lost a second-generation Kage, and the internal situation is still in chaos. Konoha has also signed a peace agreement with the Hidden Cloud Village. At this time, the third-generation Raikage of the Hidden Cloud Village should not do anything stupid to provoke Konoha.
The Iwagakure Village and the Mist Village, who have always been thinking of taking advantage, probably want to take advantage of the internal instability of Konoha to take a bite.
Uchiha Nan recalls the original plot of Naruto. The following war plot should be
The second generation Mizukage Hozuki Gengetsu and the second generation Tsuchikage Mu had a fight, and in the end both old guys died.
After a fight between the Kirigakure and Iwagakure troops, they each went back to fight for the position of the Third Kage within the village.
The First Ninja World War has almost officially come to an end.
so far so good.
Uchiha Nan felt a little comforted. This war was just a lot of noise but little rain, and it wouldn't cost much money.
"Avoid war?"
“I don’t think it’s that easy!”
"We can't pin our hopes on the enemy." Uzumaki Mito refuted Hinata Takuma's remarks. This old veteran who had fought in the Warring States Period had experienced too much and knew that peace was not achieved by asking for it, but by fighting for it.
The Hyuga clan is full of spineless
Uzumaki Mito's words were like a bucket of cold water poured on everyone's head. There was no hope of a unilateral ceasefire. At the very least, the other side had to be hurt first before there was a chance for peace talks.
In any case, the ninjas present were all veterans who had experienced life and death many times, and they quickly came to a decision on whether to fight or not.
Then there is a very realistic problem
Konoha is going to spend a lot of money again!
"The spies planted in the Kirigakure and Iwagakure are still collecting intelligence. Konoha's old wounds have not healed yet. If we want to go to war, we must urgently purchase military supplies."
"The prices of food, medicinal materials, and pig iron have plummeted this month because of a peace agreement signed between Konoha and Kumogakure. Pig iron in particular has dropped by one or two times. Once the war is about to start, the prices of these materials will probably soar again!"
"The price of pig iron is now 630,000 taels per ton"
“Medicinal herbs.”
"food."
"The price of pig iron fluctuates greatly due to the Ninja War. It is recommended to purchase it first. Once the war situation gets out of control, the price of pig iron may increase five or six times, or even more than ten times, as in the past."
hiss.
"Wait a minute, why does the price of pig iron fluctuate so wildly?"
Uchiha Nan asked, he had never noticed this phenomenon before.
"Heh, the Ninja War requires a large amount of weapons. Merchants, nobles, and even civilians are all stockpiling goods during the war."
"As for food, the daimyo has strict control. In a country like the Land of Fire where food is more plentiful, the price can only be doubled or tripled. After all, ordinary people still need to eat."
Nara Shikaon explained.
Damn, what a bunch of bastards!
They are so evil that they even dare to take money from ninjas.
Uchiha Nan was too tired to complain about this damn worldview. He didn't even need to think about the fact that there were great nobles supporting him and even the daimyo had a part in it.
But these ninjas seem to have gotten used to being exploited by the powerful people who are ordinary people.
Uchiha Nan recalled the direction of this war, which started off well but ended badly.
A thought came to my mind.
Why can't I speculate in pig iron?
Speculating in futures?
It seems like there is a way forward!
Uchiha Nan now dreams of making money. Konoha needs money for its development, and Senju Tobirama needs money for his experiments. Money is needed everywhere!
This time the opportunity to make money has come!
In the current situation, as long as the news of the war mobilization between the Kirigakure and Iwagakure spreads, and Konoha spreads the news of the war, the price of pig iron is expected to soar to the sky.
Uchiha Nan thought of a long-term task of the system, to create a financial company and control a country's economy.
We can take this opportunity to build the shell of a financial company and start with pig iron futures.
The family has a business of producing weapons, which they basically produce for their own use, and also sell to the ninjas of Konoha. Uchiha Nan knows about the current trading method of pig iron.
All transactions are spot transactions. The price is negotiated in advance and the pig iron is sold after production is completed.
Both parties have to bear the price fluctuations in the middle. In order to prevent losses and loss of orders, these unscrupulous businessmen and nobles hoard a large amount of spot goods for direct trading.
The concept of futures had not yet appeared, and there needed to be a strong guarantee for both parties to sign a long-term contract.
Guaranteeing this thing is too easy for Uchiha Nan. He is the head of the number one violent organization in the ninja world. Anyone who dares to breach the contract will be sent to see the Six Paths Sage.
Uchiha Nan thought about it and felt that there should be no problem with this business. It was a sure profit, and it was a huge profit!
"Everyone, I have a suggestion!"
