Chapter 84, Part 9: Uchiha Nan, what are you going to use to pay back what you owe me?
Chapter 84 Nine-Tailed Fox: Uchiha Nan, what are you going to use to pay back what you owe me?
夜晚
After Uchiha Nan and Senju Tobirama reached an agreement, he immediately picked a suitable sacrifice from the Anbu dungeon and created a new body for Senju Tobirama.
Of course, Uchiha Nan still gave Senju Tobirama a long list of restrictive orders as he did in the past, ensuring that Senju Tobirama could only work for him in the underground laboratory every day.
Although Uchiha Nan was not afraid that Senju Tobirama would jump out and go against him, he still had to avoid trouble that could be avoided.
He secretly dug up the grave of the previous Hokage and forced the deceased Hokage to work as his slave. This kind of thing would not sound good if it got out.
Then, Tobirama Senju devoted himself to scientific research with a dark and resentful face, and created more than 60 clones at one time to carry out scientific research. They were the strongest scientific research team in the ninja world.
This is already the limit of Senju Tobirama's impure earth body. He has completely abandoned his fighting ability in pursuit of the number of clones. A light punch can turn a clone into smoke.
And Senju Tobirama was indeed a natural born ox and horse. After only about three weeks, with his full efforts, the light bulb, large battery, generator modification drawings, and power plant design plan were all completed.
All that's left is to spend money to implement the plan. This is a good business to make money. The electricity consumption of Konoha in the future will definitely not be a small number.
In the future, maybe the power plant could support Konoha just by selling electricity. Investing in a power plant is investing in the future.
The cost of building a large power plant is not cheap. It requires a budget of at least 3 billion, not including the cost of research and development.
Except for Konoha, no other ninja village would invest money in this project.
In the past, this amount of money was naturally an astronomical figure for Konoha, but now Konoha’s Ministry of Finance is extremely rich and can definitely afford it, but Uchiha Nan always has to consider the family.
Uchiha Nan directly planned to use his status as the head of the Uchiha clan to let the Uchiha people invest in Konoha's power plant. Uchiha Nan was generous enough to pay half of the money.
Such a huge investment can be regarded as a large-scale key project of "village level" in Konoha, and naturally attracted the attention of the Konoha Ninja Clan. On the same day, Hinata Takuma visited Uchiha Nan with Hinata Asuka and a bunch of gifts.
Uchiha Nan is eating shit now, and Hinata Takuma has to come over to take a bite to taste the saltiness. Maybe this shit is actually a panacea, it just looks like shit, and when you eat it, you just lick your face and beg Uchiha Nan to take him to do it with you.
And Hinata Takuma, this guy with no bottom line, has not given up pimping for himself. That little girl is only 12 years old. And the two children in the family have made Uchiha Nan thinner and thinner. If there is another one, Uchiha Nan feels that he will die young.
Next up are Nara Shikaon and Senju Momoma
It seems that Uchiha can no longer eat alone.
These ninjas now have money in their hands. A mere 3 billion will be gone once the big and small ninjas share it. The ninjas even quarreled over the issue of the proportion of shares. Uchiha Nan was happy to see this. These ninjas finally got wise little by little.
In the end, it was Uchiha Nan who made the final decision. Konoha sent 30%, Uchiha sent 20%, and the Hyuga clan sent 20%.
As long as the Uchiha clan controls the position of Hokage, they will always have a veto over the future development of the Konoha Power Plant.
The only thing left is the issue of recruiting workers. The large-scale power plant project is too huge, and the engineering team in Konoha Village simply does not have enough manpower, so they can only recruit more people from outside.
As soon as the recruitment notice was released, it immediately ignited the enthusiasm of the unemployed vagrants who were displaced by the war around Konoha.
This group of people lived in a daze every day, relying on Konoha's occasional relief food to survive. Konoha was not a charity, and Uchiha Nan was kind-hearted enough to let them not starve to death.
But now they finally have something to do that can earn them enough to eat.
Originally, Uchiha Nan was planning to pay some wages. This time the project was very large and required a lot of workers. However, this group of starving refugees took the initiative to start infighting in order to compete for construction jobs. They just wanted to have food and work for Konoha for free.
Uchiha Nan of course accepted such a generous offer with a smile. Emerging capital is like a fish in water in this deformed ninja world.
So the boss of the Konoha engineering team complained to Uchiha Nan with a stern face that his brothers all had to make a living, and that the first generator of Konoha was built by their workers.
Considering that there is a difference between workers with work experience and vagrants who know nothing, the wages of this group of engineering teams will remain unchanged, and Konoha will still support local technical jobs.
Time passed quickly, and more than a month had passed in the blink of an eye. The financial, material, and human resources mobilized by Konoha for this project far exceeded any previous livelihood projects, and it also boosted Konoha's economic development.
Hokage's Office
The progress is encouraging.
Uchiha Nan was sitting in his office slacking off and sighed heartfeltly, with one hand looking at the progress report of the power plant construction site and with the other hand sipping the cup of wolfberry tea. He had indeed overworked himself recently and needed some replenishment.
The original generators have been modified and are ready for use. The remaining generators are still under construction in the power plant area. Rows of bottled buildings have been built, nearly ten meters high and long, with hundreds of them. These were built by workers working around the clock. They are used to store the chakra of the tailed beasts to ensure that the Nine-Tails can be squeezed dry in one go.
An extra-large circular building connects these bottled chakra storage devices, which are used to extract the chakra of the tailed beasts.
Everything is ready, except for the Nine-Tailed Fox power bank.
Uchiha Nan ordered his men to invite Uzumaki Mito to his office.
Uzumaki Mito learned of Uchiha Kusunoki's idea and was surprised at his boldness. In the ninja world, the tailed beasts were used as weapons.
Uchiha Nan, on the other hand, simply treated the tailed beast as a power bank with unlimited recharge.
"Uchiha Nan, you know that the Nine-Tails has a very bad temper."
"It's not easy for me to control the Nine-Tails and extract its chakra."
"."
Uzumaki Mito started to complain and said a lot of nonsense. Uchiha Nan was not a fool, so naturally he understood.
Uchiha Nan can get Senju Tobirama for free, but he can't get Uzumaki Mito for free.
Uchiha Kusunoki wanted Uzumaki Mito to work but didn't pay him. When this matter was brought to the attention of the shareholders of the ninja clans, Uchiha Kusunoki couldn't gain any advantage.
After all, Uzumaki Mito is a living person with a special identity. He has the strength and status. The shareholders have not yet evolved into complete capitalists who only care about money and not shame. They still need to save face now.
Besides, we all know each other every day, and there is no benefit in offending Uzumaki Mito and the Senju clan behind him.
"One draw costs 50 taels!"
Uchiha Nan quoted a price, which was almost the price of an A-level mission. Compared with burning coal, this price was already very cheap, and one draw could last for half a year.
As long as Uzumaki Mito agrees, Uchiha Nan will still make a lot of money.
If coal is burned for a year, the price will be in the billions. Uchiha Nan did a thorough cost survey and bullied Uzumaki Mito for not understanding the market.
"Besides, the Nine-Tails lives with me, and I have always advocated using love to influence the tailed beasts."
"I have been with Kyuubi for such a long time. You, an outsider, will never understand the feelings between us. Kyuubi can be considered as my close friend and beloved one."
"."
Uzumaki Mito was talking nonsense in a loving manner, but that was not what he said when he used the chain to whip the Nine-Tails before.
Uzumaki Mito’s meaning is very clear, the price is wrong and you have to pay more!
This time the money did not go into the Senju clan's account, but into Uzumaki Mito's own pocket. In the past, the only way for ninjas to make money was to complete missions. The day she became the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, she could say goodbye to missions forever. She had not had any income for many years.
However, as the darling of the Senju clan, Uzumaki Mito naturally has no shortage of food, clothing and other necessities. If he wants to use money, he can naturally take it from the Senju clan's account.
But Uzumaki Mito is a married woman after all, and she has been taking money from her husband's family. With her strength and status, everyone thinks it is nothing wrong and it is justified. As a strong woman, Uzumaki Mito always feels that there is a thorn in her heart, but this is not the main reason.
Uzumaki Mito is thinking about the future. He must save money for little Tsunade. Tsunade is getting more and more aggressive in gambling. Before, she only gambled a few thousand taels, but now she has started to lose tens of thousands of taels. She used the transformation technique to gamble in the casino and was almost detained by the casino.
What will happen when she grows up? She will lose hundreds of thousands of taels of money, millions of taels of money, that is gambling debts. The Senju clan is not just the Senju Hashirama family, this is a large family with thousands of people. When Tsunade grows up, how can they help her pay off her gambling debts?
Unless the Senju clan dies out and all the inheritance is inherited by Tsunade, but this possibility can be directly ruled out, the Senju clan has been passed down for thousands of years.
If you love your son, you will plan for him in the long run.
Uzumaki Mito has fully witnessed Tsunade's gambler nature, which is even worse than his grandfather Senju Hashirama. There is no hope of correcting her.
Uzumaki Mito knew that Uchiha Kusunoki had money, so she had to ask for more. She planned to keep the money in the bank and give it to Tsunade on time every month after she passed a hundred years old. This would at least ensure that Tsunade would not live in such a bad way in the future.
"One million ryo for each mission. This is the price of an S-level mission. Don't push your luck. An ordinary jonin can only do a few S-level missions a year. S-level missions are life-threatening."
Uzumaki Mito thought for a moment. He drew one million ryo each time, and he should be able to draw several times a year in the future, which would mean at least two million ryo a year. His old bones would still allow him to live for another ten or twenty years without any problem, so the income would be at least tens of millions ryo. For an ordinary ninja, this was already an astronomical figure. After all, the death pension for a senior ninja in Konoha was only five million ryo at most.
"make a deal!"
"It's a deal, let's sign it now!"
It's a huge profit, and still a huge profit. When Uzumaki Mito sees the huge potential profit of the power plant and the cost of coal, there is no doubt that she will raise the price.
Uchiha Nan couldn't wait to draw up a contract, signed his own name, and stamped it with Konoha's official seal. The opinions of the remaining shareholders were no longer important.
"Sign it!"
Uchiha Nan handed the pen to Uzumaki Mito.
Uzumaki Mito has the ability to perceive emotions. Although Uchiha Nan has tried his best to hide his inner joy, Uzumaki Mito still noticed something was wrong.
Why do I feel that Uchiha Nan is very excited?
Asking price is too low?
Uzumaki Mito hesitated and did not sign immediately.
"You've already agreed, are you going to go back on your word? If not, I'll hold a shareholders' meeting. Lord Mito, you've gotten the reward for an S-level mission for free by just sitting there. I'm taking care of you. If you don't believe me, just look at how the junior ninja clan's jonin are scolding your greed at the shareholders' meeting."
Uchiha Nan pretended to show an embarrassed smile and prepared to take the contract away, and then Uzumaki Mito became anxious. This price was already considered high in Uzumaki Mito's shallow view of money. She knew nothing about the consumption of electricity in the industrial age.
"I sign!"
Uzumaki Mito signed his name, making Uchiha Nan breathe a sigh of relief.
At this moment, Uzumaki Mito keenly sensed that Uchiha Nan's joy was even stronger.
Damn, it’s really going to be cheaper!
Uzumaki Mito regretted it in his heart, but he had already signed it and could not go back on it. After returning to the Senju clan, he had to collect some information about the power plant, especially the cost of the substitute coal!
Look at how much I have lost. I came here too hastily this time.
While thinking this in her heart, Uzumaki Mito followed Uchiha Kusunoki to the power plant in Konoha.
Konoha Power Plant
Uzumaki Mito came into the circular building room and a huge amount of chakra fluctuations burst out of his body.
In order to prevent Uzumaki Mito from extracting the chakra of the tailed beast, the Nine-Tails resisted violently and damaged the chakra transmission device.
Uchiha Nan also used chakra to sneak into the sealed space of the Nine-Tails to keep an eye on the Nine-Tails and prevent it from doing anything wrong.
Uzumaki Mito placed her hands on a special instrument, and a large amount of chakra was extracted from her body.
This chakra naturally belongs to the Nine-Tailed Fox. The tailed beast is a special life form composed of chakra.
To make an inappropriate analogy, drawing away the Nine-Tailed Fox's chakra is like drawing away its red and blue bars. How could the Nine-Tailed Fox endure this? Even though its body was tied up like a dumpling with chains, it still resisted madly.
"Uzumaki Mito, I."
"You stinking bitch."
"Uchiha Nan, you bastard, you're just watching right here, come and save me, I helped you win the position of Hokage of Konoha last time."
The Nine-Tails felt a massive loss of chakra in its body and began to get anxious. Uzumaki Mito turned the extraction power to the maximum, and in just a short while, all the chakra of several tailed beast balls was extracted.
"Snow Leopard... um... no Kyuubi, shut up!"
"Nine-Tails, you have lived in Uzumaki Mito's body for so many years and you have never paid the rent. What's wrong with her taking a little bit of your chakra? You are a polite tailed beast. Don't be as rude as the One-Tails. Know how to repay a favor."
"."
Nine-Tailed Fox widened his fox eyes, with a look of disbelief in them.
Uchiha Nan's words have refreshed Kyuubi's cognition. Uchiha Nan could even say such words with no moral bottom line. He actually believed that Uchiha Nan was a good person before.
"You can even say words like rent and repaying a favor!"
"This is a dark and shabby place. If it weren't for Uzumaki Mito's sealing technique, I would have run away long ago. You and Uchiha Madara are birds of a feather. You don't treat the tailed beasts as human beings!"
"Uchiha Nan, you really have no shame at all. How are you going to pay me back for what you owe me?"
"Uchiha Nan, you are the most shameless person in Konoha."
"I fuck you"
"."
The Nine-Tails started cursing, and Uchiha Nan waved his hand indifferently. Ever since the incident between him, Feng and Ling came to light, the bottom line of his moral principles had already dropped to a new level.
Now every strand of Kyuubi's chakra was filled with the aroma of money.
The Nine-Tails' scolding was like music to the heavens to Uchiha Nan's ears. The louder the scolding was, the more chakra the Nine-Tails still had left.
"Mito, increase the force, the Kyuubi still has the energy to scream here, squeeze it dry!"
Uchiha Nan showed a greedy capitalist smile.
