Chapter 82 Tobirama: You are the Hokage, but you cannot go down the path of crime.

Money is not everything, but nothing is impossible without money.

This truth was eternal in the Rabbit Country of the previous life, and it is still an unchanging truth in this ninja world with extraordinary powers.

The war is basically over, and the five major ninja villages have all been severely damaged. They need a long time to recuperate and cultivate new blood.

And thanks to Uchiha Kusunoki's miraculous operation, Konoha had an additional sum of funds in its account, which was more than the other four major ninja villages combined. This directly made Konoha sit up in shock from its dying illness and ask God for another 500 years.

Uchiha Nan is now spending a lot of money, so that Konoha, which has been devastated by the war, is beginning to be rebuilt at an astonishing speed, bursting with unimaginable vitality.

In the past, because of the war, the ninjas spent all their money on war preparations and rushed to the battlefield, so the income of small vendors in the village began to decrease, and prices also rose because of the war.

This has resulted in extremely difficult lives for all kinds of business vendors in the village.

Now Uchiha Kusunoki is spending a lot of money on Konoha's ninjas. The ninjas have survived the battlefield with their heads held high. Now that they have money in their hands, they naturally want to spend it and have fun.
They don't want to experience the pain of dying without spending their money.

Money is money only when it is spent. Consumption will bring circulation, and the fragile commercial system in Konoha Village will circulate again. Popularity will bring more money, and then more taxes will be collected.
Uchiha Nan walked on the street. The remaining dark clouds of war still hung over the heads of the villagers, but their eyes were a little brighter than before.

Once there is hope in life, human beings will be born with unparalleled vitality.

Uchiha Nan went to work, followed by Feng and Ling. At first, the villagers of Konoha looked at him strangely, but after Uchiha Nan skillfully lowered his moral bottom line, all obstacles disappeared.

This ninja world doesn't practice monogamy, you guys can just envy it.
Walking on the streets of Konoha and looking at the villagers' new mental state, Uchiha Nan knew that there was no problem with his strategic direction, and the living conditions of the grassroots people would not lie.

Hokage Building
Nara Shikato came here early in the morning to start his day's work. Now the entire Hokage building is full of pineapple-haired people.

The Nara clan's talent lies in management, so Uchiha Nan will certainly make full use of them and let them help him deal with Konoha's problems.

If Uchiha Nan really had to stay on the Hokage's desk every day to read documents, he would go crazy.

As soon as they entered the room, the ninjas who were working greeted Uchiha Nan one after another. They were no longer surprised by Uchiha Nan's lateness for work and slacking off.

As a boss, as long as he can help them make money and is willing to pay them, they, as his subordinates, naturally have no objection to Uchiha Nan's lifestyle.

"Hokage-sama, the enrollment for the Ninja School has begun, and talented children are being selected from the civilian population to enter the Ninja School."

"According to your opinion, the school system has been changed from two years to four years."

Uchiha Nan sat on a chair and listened to Nara Shikaon reporting on the progress of the village in the past few days.

Uchiha Nan suffered greatly from and hated the two-year ninja school system where graduates had to complete missions to support themselves. This was no longer as simple as employing child labor, it was manufacturing cannon fodder on an assembly line.

If Konoha had enough resources, Uchiha Nan would even like to extend the study time and change it to a six-year system.

There is no fixed age limit for entering a ninja school, and generally anyone under the age of twelve can enroll. This has led to Uchiha Nan seeing too many little teens enthusiastically taking kunai to do missions and chop people.

They are not like time travelers like me, with cheats, and most of them have bad endings.
In peacetime, they can be asked to do some D-level tasks as a transition. Once the situation in the ninja world becomes tense, they will all be asked to do some tasks to clear out bandits and see blood, and then be thrown into the battlefield. Among the nearly a thousand cannon fodders, there will always be someone who stands out and becomes a Chunin, or even a dozen Jonin.

"By the way, remember to focus on screening the orphanage in Konoha. There will definitely be someone who can become something great among these children."

"."

"If the child has lost both parents and is carrying a blood feud, and is still engaged, you must bring him to me. I will personally examine him."

"Remember, don't let the last name Tang be there."

"And the annual funding should at least allow these children to have meat every now and then."

"."

While listening to Nara Shikaon's report, Uchiha Nan suddenly remembered the orphanage in Konoha, and began to mutter.

The orphanage is a place with talented people and beautiful scenery. It would be abnormal if there were no evildoers in a passionate anime like Naruto. We must treat it with great care.

"Okay, Hokage-sama."

Nara Shikayuan found that Uchiha Nan started to say some strange things as he spoke. After spending some time together, Nara Shikayuan had gotten used to it.

He could understand some of Uchiha Nan's words, but for some he had no idea what Uchiha Nan was talking about.

However, since the Hokage has made such a strong request, Nara Shikaon, as his subordinate, will naturally carry it out.

After listening to Uchiha Nan's arrangements, Nara Shikaon told Uchiha Nan the remaining enrollment arrangements. Uchiha Nan felt there was no problem and signed for it.

All that was left was to wait for the enrollment to be completed. When school started, Uchiha Nan would go to the Ninja School to meet the new students of Konoha and impart some trivial matters such as the values ​​of the Will of Fire.

"Is the price of pig iron still falling?"

Afterwards, Uchiha Nan became concerned about the price of pig iron. The pig iron industry in the Fire Nation was directly heading in an indescribable direction due to the interference of Uchiha Nan, and the price had collapsed.

This time, Uchiha Nan planned to buy a batch of low-priced pig iron at a bottom price. The pig iron futures plan could be successful this time because Uchiha Nan had the right time, right place, and right people. It is almost impossible to replicate it.

"The price is still falling slowly. According to Konoha's information channels and my judgment, the price of pig iron will hit bottom in a week."

Nara Shikato is very concerned about futures. He is keenly aware of the huge value of futures. This business is all about information asymmetry and amount of capital. In this respect, Konoha is an unparalleled giant in the Land of Fire. It is too addictive to make money by manipulating prices.

"I'll leave this business to you. I trust you to do the job."

Uchiha Nan nodded and asked Nara Shikato to continue managing this business.

Nara Shikaon was deeply moved by Uchiha Nan's words of trust. He was about to express his loyalty, but was shocked by Uchiha Nan's next words.

"By the way, I want to buy a batch of iron ore from the Fire Nation!"

Uchiha Nanyu was determined to shock people, and he started with a deal worth tens of billions. Although Konoha had money in its account, it couldn't spend it like that.

"Hokage, this is too expensive. An iron mine costs at least tens of billions of taels. If it is a super large iron mine, the price will be even more outrageous, more than tens of billions."

Nara Shikaon was nervous about Uchiha Nan's big move, as Konoha had never been involved in this kind of business.

"Lu Yuan, you need to take a long-term view. Money is meant to be spent. Don't feel bad about it."

"The money can be split into two parts. We can form a joint venture with them, with Konoha taking the lion's share. We need to completely control the price of iron. The demand for steel in the ninja world in the future will be very large."

"."As everyone knows, steel is the blood of industry. Uchiha Nan is very ambitious. He wants to industrialize the ninja world, and steel is indispensable. Therefore, Uchiha Nan must control the steel in his own hands.

If you want to control an industry, you must control the source.

Uchiha Nan planned to negotiate directly with the merchants and nobles who owned iron mines in the Land of Fire and take over a batch of iron ore from the insects at a low price.

This group of people, who pride themselves on their long experience in the pig iron industry, are the most aggressive group of people. However, they were cheated the most by Uchiha Nan, this tough guy who came out of nowhere. I'm afraid that now they will even have to delay the wages of the miners under them.

Iron ore is a hen that lays eggs. There are many unlucky guys who gamble too much and want to be eaten by the Fire Nation, but Uchiha Nan plans to eat the big one alone.

"Hokage-sama, big businessmen from other industries, and nobles."

Nara Shikato expressed concern about Uchiha Nan's decision. It was not just about the money. Competing for iron ore was not an easy thing.

"Humph, if you dare to compete with Konoha, whether you are a buyer or a seller, we will send Konoha ninjas to deliver fruit baskets to them every day."

Uchiha Nan smiled sinisterly. The fruit basket sent by Konoha had extremely sweet fruits in it. If one ate the sweet fruits and did not give Konoha some face, then he was courting death.

"Okay, Hokage-sama."

Nara Shikayuan was somewhat helpless. This method was not acceptable. Last time, the daimyo had guaranteed it. This time, it was Konoha's own action. What if the daimyo was unhappy?
Although Nara Shikaon was worried, he still followed Uchiha Nan's arrangements. Even if the sky fell, he had Uchiha Nan, who was tall enough to support it, so what did he have to be afraid of?

Nara Shikaon and Uchiha Nansu discussed the future Five Kage Summit again. After finalizing the general framework, they left Uchiha Nansu's office with a worried mood.

Now the only people left in the office are Uchiha Nan and the two little ones, Feng and Ling, who just came in.

I can fish again.
Uchiha Nan was lying on the chair, and Feng skillfully gave him a shoulder and neck massage.

Hey, Ling, why are you under the table? It's still daytime.
Oh, give me a touch.
The soundproofing in the office was not very good, so Uchiha Nan just enjoyed their service a little bit and stayed until the end of get off work, letting them go home and take a shower and wait for him.

After get off work, Uchiha Nan came to a remote dungeon in the Uchiha clan alone. Originally, this place was dilapidated and in disrepair, but now it has been cleaned up by Uchiha Nan and equipped with luxurious experimental equipment. It can be said to be the top laboratory in the ninja world.

The security here is now tight, and the family's ninjas have been arranged to guard it closely. Uchiha Nan has given a death order that no one except himself can enter this laboratory from now on.

It's time to find a new home for Senju Tobirama. Previously, Uchiha Nan searched all the experimental instruments in Konoha Village and found that the most advanced instruments were all in the Senju clan. Uchiha Nan wanted to requisition them but was directly rejected.

The funds that Senju Tobirama had embezzled in the past all went into the Senju clan's own account and had nothing to do with Konoha. Even if Uchiha Kusunoki wanted to use them, he couldn't. He could only transfer some experimental equipment from other places in Konoha for Senju Tobirama to use.

Uchiha Nan walked into the laboratory. The laboratory was filled with the smell of money. Every instrument and experimental material was valuable. A bottle of inconspicuous potion in the corner might be worth tens of thousands of taels.

Uchiha Nan opened the summoning scroll and a coffin was summoned by Uchiha Nan. Senju Tobirama kicked the coffin lid open and was very dissatisfied with Uchiha Nan's unreasonable imprisonment play.

"Uchiha Nan, how is the lab preparation going? The junk you found can't meet my needs."

"Senju Tobirama, come out and see your new home."

Uchiha Nan pointed at the newly renovated laboratory. Senju Tobirama grumbled as he slowly walked out of the coffin, his eyes widening.

Senju Tobirama couldn't wait to step forward and touch the experimental equipment. He picked up one of the small instruments at random and stroked it carefully, with an obsessive look in his eyes.

"This instrument is simply a work of art. It can only be found in the Kingdom of Sand."

Uchiha Nan didn't know what the instrument was for, he only knew that it was very expensive, costing more than 100,000 taels.

Senju Tobirama put down the instrument and picked out a bottle of lavender solution from a pile of solution bottles.

"And this solution, I've wanted to buy it for a long time. The Devil's Country itself can't keep up with the demand, but you can buy it now."

"."

Senju Tobirama looked around the laboratory, and after the joy on his face faded, he said solemnly to Uchiha Nan:

"Did you steal Konoha's funds? This laboratory is worth more than 3 billion taels. Konoha really needs money everywhere now."

"You are the Hokage, you must take the lead and never go down the path of crime."

"."

Uchiha Nan rolled his eyes and said, "It was you, Senju Tobirama, who started the stealing of Konoha's funds."

"Don't worry, do you know how much money Konoha had in his account a few days ago?"

"More than 100 billion!"

"."

Uchiha Nan told Senju Tobirama the whole story about pig iron futures. Before that, Uchiha Nan held his breath and did not reveal any information to Senju Tobirama, just to show off.

Even Uzumaki Mito was slapped in the face, how could you, Senju Tobirama, escape?

Senju Tobirama's expression changed from disdain when he first heard about the pig iron futures plan, to thoughtfulness later, and finally to disbelief.

"Tobirama, you are such a failure as a Hokage. I wonder how long the Konoha ninjas have been suffering because of you."

"You didn't see the expression on Uzumaki Mito's face when he got his share of the money, tsk tsk tsk"

"Now that everyone has received their share of the money, they have all started calling me the strongest Hokage of Konoha."

Uchiha Nan teased Senju Tobirama with a smile on his face, and Senju Tobirama's face suddenly turned dark.

Failed Hokage?
How can this word be related to me?

You are the strongest Hokage in Konoha. Believe it or not, I will beat you to pieces with one hand.
Senju Tobirama really wanted to punch Uchiha Nan in the face. That arrogant expression was really annoying.

"Humph, it's just a small amount of money!"

Only Senju Tobirama's words were still tough now, but in his heart he looked at Uchiha Nan with a different eye.

Did Uchiha Nan reincarnate into the wrong family?

How could those Uchiha reckless men have such smart brains? Could it be that opening the Mangekyō Sharingan can increase their IQ? They can actually come up with something new and unheard of, such as futures?
That's more than 100 billion. If I had that much money on the books when I was Hokage, I wouldn't have bothered to negotiate with the Hidden Cloud Village. I would have just fought them to the end and captured that bastard Raikage Ai alive.

Senju Tobirama muttered to himself.
