"Dong dong dong dong dong"

Late at night, Mabroth came to Tutai's house quietly and knocked on his door rhythmically.

A moment later, Mabroth's feet suddenly became soft and he fell down. This was exactly the melting technique of Tutai, which could change the properties of all substances into soft, sticky, and rubbery.

"Is there a situation?"

In the underground secret room, Tutai was a little sleepy. In recent days, he had been busy with banking matters, especially that woman. In order to gain power, she forced the bank, foreign exchange management department, banknote printing department, and unified purchase and marketing department, which were originally separated, into one department. He also put a lot of effort into the restrictions and balance among them.

"Troy Vigon is back."

"reason?"

"Ten months' tobacco dividends, one hundred million taels."

"It's a huge profit"

Hearing this, even Dodai couldn't help but feel a little envious. Of course, that was it. As a minister of Kumogakure, the money that would pass through his hands would only be more. He just sighed that trade was indeed a good thing, and he couldn't help but admire Namikaze Minato's foresight.

"However, perhaps because the Sandaime died, Namikaze Minato made a rare concession in order to maintain stability. Not only was he willing to falsify the dividends, he even asked Muzi Tadayoshi to provide that woman with a lot of so-called advice."

“What suggestions?”

"See for yourself"

As he spoke, Mabroth took out a copy of the scroll, which was the copy that Troy Vigon had given to Seleu Meiling during the day. As the secretary of the Third Hokage, he was very familiar with that office, and it was not difficult for him to obtain information from it.

"Is she crazy?"

Tu Tai looked at the information in his hand, his expression twisted. It listed a number of so-called suggestions for making money for Madam Sailu.
For example, they use the excuse of unified purchase and sale to allow only Yunyin to do business in some businesses. When purchasing, they can use all means to lower the price, so that they can buy low and sell high to make a profit.
For example, salt was singled out because people cannot live without salt, even ninjas are the same. It is a strategic material, so it can only be produced by Kumogakure and sold by Kumogakure. However, when selling it, the price was raised a little bit, and then a few white gloves were found to sell the salt at a low price privately. In this way, money can flow into the hands of Lady Sailu continuously.
However, in Tutai's view, these are just trivial matters.

The most ruthless of these suggestions is about Leibi.

In short, the Thunder Coin itself is worthless, so it doesn't matter how much it is printed. Taking advantage of the time difference in the circulation of this currency, using it to buy goods from the people of the Thunder Country is equivalent to taking it into your own hands for free.
Of course, doing so would cause the Thunder Country's Thunder Coins to exceed the amount of goods themselves. At this time, the ninjas could be used to quietly kill the holders of the over-issued currency in various accidents.
"So, she agreed?"

Tutai put down the proposal in his hand and looked at Mabroth.

"If she disagrees, would I come to you? When she saw the proposal, she couldn't stop laughing. Moreover, Minato Namikaze simply quit his position as a bank supervisor."

“This is reasonable.”

Tutai narrowed his eyes and thought quickly.

"Without the Sandaime's support, he would not be able to fulfill this responsibility. However, this guy really has bad intentions."

"What do you mean?"

"You see, these so-called suggestions of his are nothing more than drinking the blood of the people of Thunder Country. The result will naturally make the entire Thunder Country complain, but the problem is that he can't get any benefit from it. Or rather, the only benefit he can get is the comparison. The Daimyo of Frost Country was killed by him. He is nominally the Grand Commander of the Frost Canal, but in fact he is the manager of Frost Country. On the one hand, the country is in a mess because of the harm caused by that woman, while on the other hand, the country is well managed because of the existence of the canal."

"So what?"

Mabroth shook his head slightly.

"Does he want to rely on himself and a small country like Frost to counterattack the entire Kumogakure?"

"So, have you forgotten that he has another identity, that he is the adopted son of the Sandaime?"

"call"

Mabroth sat up straight.

"He wants an excuse! The more chaos the Land of Lightning and Kumogakure are in because of that woman, the greater his chances will be. After all, you and I know that the current Yondaime has been controlled by the Six Paths Ninja Tools. Could it be that he also knows about this?"

"Troy Vigon!"

Suddenly, Mabroth and Tutai looked at each other and immediately thought of this only possibility.

Troy Vigon was Minato Namikaze's man! In other words, he joined Minato Namikaze's group at a certain point in time. Only in this way, he, the person who was most likely to know that the Fourth Generation was controlled, could leak the information to Minato Namikaze.

"Tutai, do you think that Troy Vigon was his man from the beginning?"

"No, the Sandaime's injury was an unexpected accident. We can only say that Minato Namikaze had some ulterior motives. But if the Sandaime and the Fourth Hokage could have a smooth transfer of power, he would not have had any chance. But now, he has seized this opportunity." "Then what should we do?"

"what to do."

Tutai took a deep breath.

"The only thing this stupid woman did right was that she was not stupid enough to do it herself, but let Mu Zi Zhongyi be her white glove to do it all. I guess her idea was that she could not only avoid dirtying her own hands, but also tie up this boy with special abilities. After all, his abilities were too terrifying. With an annual income of 100 million taels, even if the income would continue to decrease with the proliferation of tobacco, at least in ten years, she could earn at least 600 million or even more money..."

"And we will use this young man as a breakthrough point, expose what he did in public, and push all of this onto Minato Namikaze, forcing that woman to turn against Minato Namikaze!"

"Are you planning on getting rid of Minato Namikaze first?"

"Not to get rid of him, but to force him to leave Kumogakure."

Tutai shook his head.

"He has the Flying Thunder God Technique. If he wants to run, there are few people in this world who can stop him. The Second Hokage was killed because the Six Paths Ninja Tool played an important role. But now we in Kumogakure no longer have this thing. As long as he loses his identity as the adopted son of the Third Hokage, he will not be able to use his opponent's strength to fight against him."

"What a pity! The people of the Land of Thunder will suffer."

Mabroth sighed. It was obvious that the premise for launching this plan was that the people of the Land of Lightning and Kumogakure were complaining. They could use this as an opportunity to pull most of the people of Kumogakure to force Sairu Meiling to make a choice. The good news was that this woman was weak by nature, and this was her unchangeable shortcoming.
"There's no other way. For the sake of Yunyin's future, if we let them suffer a little, they should understand."
-
At night, Balka's face was full of sorrow.

He was an ordinary farmer in the Land of Thunder, making a living by growing highland flax.

Originally, life was still pretty good, especially last year, when Yunyin collected a lot of flax, and they no longer had to look for sellers. They could just sell it all to Yunyin, which saved them a lot of effort and also saved them from being exploited.

However, suddenly, the Land of Lightning issued some kind of Thunder Coin, and he had to exchange the money he had for it. The higher-ups said that they were all the same. This Thunder Coin seemed to be much more refined than the previous money, so he didn't think much about it and just exchanged it. After all, the high-ranking ninja master would not deceive farmers like them.

But then, bad things happened one after another.

First of all, this year was supposed to be a bumper year for flax, but at the end of the year, it rained heavily and the flax could not be stored for a long time. Taking advantage of this time, a man named Mu Zi Zhongyi not only frantically lowered the price of flax, but also did not allow them to sell it to anyone outside of Yunyin.

Then, the price of salt went up again, and only Master Ninja could sell salt. Later, he heard from others that there was a place where people bought salt secretly and it was much cheaper than from Master Ninja. Because of his poor harvest, he had to try there, and he actually bought salt, but was caught by Master Ninja who suddenly appeared.

Not only were his money and salt confiscated, but he was also beaten.

There are many people like him in their village.
Moreover, it is not over yet. Since when, the grain has become unavailable for purchase. I heard that it was taken away by a man named Mu Zi Zhong Yi. This has forced farmers like them who mainly grow highland flax to buy grain at high prices.
Now, the family savings are quickly being spent.

The reason was very simple. He found that, for some unknown reason, the thunder coins in his hands were becoming less and less valuable.
The price of food in the town is rising every day, and there are purchase limits.
So, this is why it is already the late night and he has not gone to bed yet, because he doesn't know how his family will survive after all the thunder coins in his hand are spent.
"Dong~~"

Suddenly, a sound attracted Balka's attention, as if something fell to the ground.

He stood up and picked it up. He found it was a heavy package. He opened it and found a stone and a stack of money inside. It was a stack of old money that he looked at with great familiarity.
Moreover, there was a pattern painted on the stone. Although he could not read, he recognized it. It was... a cat?

"cat?"

Balka tilted his head and thought for a while. He remembered that he seemed to have heard someone say that recently, if a family was in financial difficulty, someone would give you some money and leave a pattern of a cat. Therefore, some people called this person the Cat Ninja.

"Thank you, Neko-nin. Thank you, Neko-nin."

Balka collected the money, knelt down in front of the stone and kowtowed, tears streaming down his face.
Although men don't cry easily, with this money, his family can live for a while longer, especially with this old money, he can buy things that cannot be bought with Lei coins.
“This town has a total of 60 companies.”

In the darkness, the two ninjas confirmed with each other that each town needed at least thirty stones. They distributed sixty stones to the needy, which was considered to have exceeded the target.

"I can finally take a break. I don't know what the purpose of this mission from the Grand Commander is."

"We'll know when the time comes. Anyway, the Grand Commander pays me so much every year. Even if he asks me to eat shit, I won't even frown."

". However, these people are really pitiful. Ever since the Fourth Hokage came to power, the Land of Lightning has been in a mess. And that Mu Zi Zhongyi, not only is he arrogant all day long, but half of those bastard things were done by him."

"Isn't he the Grand Commander's man?"

"You don't know, but he's not the same person anymore. I heard he got close to the mother of the Fourth Hokage again. He's the director of the purchasing department of a bank or something."

"So, you said, the Grand Commander asked us to do this, right?"

"I hope so, but what is the purpose of doing this? How can these ordinary people help?"

　It's almost the end. I'm a little stuck.
　　There is one more update, I'll try my best.
