Chapter 112: Konoha can’t even cheat Uzumaki Mito, this contract will make a huge profit!
The Nine-Tailed Fox is the most powerful of the tailed beasts and considers itself the eldest brother among them. If the eldest brother is suffering, what's wrong with the younger brother suffering a little with him?
Since Uchiha Nan wants to squeeze out Shukaku's chakra, then the Nine-Tails must help!
Seeing that the Nine-Tails was winking at him frantically, Uchiha Nan asked Uzumaki Mito to loosen the chains to give the Nine-Tails a chance to speak.
"Hmph! Uchiha Nan, I hope you can keep your word on the deal between us."
"This time, since you want to extract the chakra of that damn raccoon Shukaku for the future of the ninja world, I can tell you some ways to suppress Shukaku."
"I'm not seeking revenge on Shukaku. I simply want to contribute to the future of the ninja world. I've already contributed my own chakra to the future of the ninja world. How can Shukaku stay out of it?"
The Nine-Tails was talking nonsense there, trying to find some high-sounding excuses for its behavior of harming its fellow tailed beasts. Uchiha Nan naturally despised or praised such shameless behavior.
"Kulama, hard!"
"Is it hard? We can talk about whether it's hard or not later. I just want to do something for the ninja world right now!"
A cunning smile appeared on the nine-tailed fox's face. Oh, it felt so good to make Shukaku as unlucky as himself.
After a while, the Nine-Tails revealed Shukaku's weaknesses, the precautions to take after the One-Tails was sealed, and how to prevent the One-Tails' chakra from invading the Jinchuriki. He revealed all the secrets of the One-Tails.
Uchiha Nan nodded repeatedly after hearing this and gave the Nine-Tails a thumbs up.
"Kulama, so high and hard!"
"As expected of you, he is the boss of the tailed beasts, the strongest tailed beast with nine tails!"
Uchiha Nan praised Kurama, and Kurama narrowed his eyes slightly, and was very pleased with Uchiha Nan's flattery.
Two damn beasts!
Uzumaki Mito spat softly, and in his heart he despised this man and fox. They were clearly plotting to harm the tailed beasts and wanted to drain the chakra of the other tailed beasts, yet they came up with such a high-sounding excuse.
In a flash, the little bit of good impression that Uzumaki Mito had just developed towards Uchiha Nan disappeared immediately. Uchiha Nan was indeed a beastly bastard. The child of Yang Yue could never be entrusted to Uchiha Nan.
Otherwise, Yang Yue would definitely be sold out by Uchiha Nan in the future, and would have to count money for Uchiha Nan.
Humph, I’ll smoke!
Uzumaki Mito looked at the man and the fox who were in cahoots with each other and felt inexplicably annoyed. He couldn't deal with Uchiha Nan, and he couldn't deal with you, Nine-Tails. Watch me squeeze the juice out of you!
"Hiss, Mito, you bastard, can you squeeze slower? I..."
The Nine-Tails felt that the speed at which its chakra was being drained suddenly increased, and a feeling of weakness and powerlessness suddenly came over it.
"Humph!"
Uzumaki Mito snorted coldly and immediately tied up the Nine-Tails' mouth with a chain.
"Mito, I have to criticize you for this. The Kyuubi is a comrade who has dedicated himself to Konoha. Can't you be a little gentler in the way you extract chakra?"
"The Nine-Tails is a good friend of Konoha. You can't treat your friends like that."
Uchiha Nan took the opportunity to say a few words for the Nine-Tails. Although it might not be of much use to increase the Nine-Tails' favorability, which was already low, it was just a matter of talking. It would never hurt to give it a try.
Kyuubi nodded repeatedly and glared at Uzumaki Mito.
Hey, you two are still standing together?
Uzumaki Mito had no time to deal with these two shameless people, a man and a fox, and just focused on extracting the Nine-Tails' chakra at full speed.
Time passed quickly, and Uzumaki Mito completed his mission of extracting the Nine-Tails' chakra.
The Nine-Tailed Fox's body shrank, its spirit became listless, and its fur lost its luster, but it was still very happy in its heart.
From now on, it was no longer the only tailed beast to suffer from this unfortunate mess. It was great to have Shukaku to accompany him!
"Chiyo, you just saw it. This is the whole process of extracting the chakra of the tailed beast. The process is simple and crude, but it requires the Jinchūriki to have absolute suppression power over the tailed beast. This is probably very difficult for you Sunagakure."
"But you don't have to worry about that. Mito-sama should be able to find a way."
Uchiha Nan looked at Uzumaki Mito, only to see that Uzumaki Mito nodded confidently. After what the Nine-Tails had just revealed, she now had a good idea for a sealing technique in her mind that could be used specifically to restrain the One-Tails.
However, a skill cannot be passed on lightly. Uzumaki Mito had no intention of passing on this sealing technique to the Sand Village. He planned to make it into a scroll seal. Or set up a sealing ritual in the room where the chakra of the tailed beasts was extracted, which would also have the same effect.
Uzumaki Mito expressed her thoughts, and Uchiha Nan had no objection to it, and the same was true for Chiyo.
Originally, Chiyo had no intention of obtaining the sealing technique specifically for sealing Shukaku from Konoha. Although Konoha and the Sand Village had become allies, the relationship between the two villages was not yet good enough to allow the core technology within the village to be leaked.
Konoha is not selfless enough to do anything to aid the enemy.
Chiyo is already very satisfied with her current harvest. It's also good to have a room that can suppress Shukaku. At least it can let Fubuku sleep well.
"Hokage-sama, how should my labor fee be calculated?"
Uzumaki Mito rubbed her fingers and asked for compensation from Uchiha Nan in a very mercenary manner. One penny for one dollar is enough for one effort. This principle was taught to her by Uchiha Nan. Don't think about getting his labor for free.
In the past, Uchiha Nan had always taken advantage of him, and now he finally had the chance to collect some interest.
"Yang Yue's talent is good, but at her current level, she is not capable of developing a sealing technique as easily as I can."
Uzumaki Mito blocked Uchiha Nan's retreat in advance to prevent Uchiha Nan from using this matter to threaten her again.
"Okay, okay."
Uchiha Nan waved his hand. He was not an unreasonable person. It was natural for him to give some benefits when asking someone to do something for him.
"300 taels!"
Uzumaki Mito offered a sky-high price, which made Uchiha Nan's mouth twitch. Uzumaki Mito was really ruthless.
But knowledge is priceless, and mastering core technologies is awesome.
Before Uchiha Nan could react, Chiyo couldn't help but exclaim. This number was an astronomical figure for her, a poor girl from the Sand Village.
However, Chiyo soon realized her mistake, but still said:
"Mister Mito, could you please give me a bit of a discount on the price?"
Chiyo was very sensible and didn't intend to let Uchiha Kusunoki pay.
A room with a seal that can suppress Shukaku is of great significance to the Sand Village. From now on, the Sand Village can largely avoid the situation where Fukufuku can't stand the sleepiness and falls asleep, and the One-Tail takes advantage of the opportunity to come out and wreak havoc in the Sand Village
I'm afraid that in the entire ninja world, only Konoha has this kind of technology. If you want to buy it, you have to look at Konoha's face. Even having money may not work.
If the two villages had not formed an alliance, the Sand Village would not be able to invite Uzumaki Mito at all.
But three million taels is indeed a huge sum for the Sand Village. Now the Sand Village needs money everywhere, so they can save as much as they can. Uzumaki Mito turned her head away. It was impossible for her to get a discount. She was badly cheated by Uchiha Nan, and she would never give up a penny.
"How about this? Konoha will first cover the money, and then take a portion of the fees from each sale of One-Tail Chakra to repay the debt."
Uchiha Nan stepped forward at the right time and gave a reasonable solution.
"can."
Chiyo nodded, this plan was already a good choice.
But how much is the value of extracting the chakra of a tailed beast? Chiyo thought she should ask:
"Hokage, please give me the fee for extracting the chakra of a tailed beast."
"One million taels at a time!"
Uzumaki Mito answered first. She knew very well how cheap the price was, but the contract had already been signed and it was impossible to go back on her word.
According to Uchiha Nan's development needs, Tobirama combined ninjutsu and technology to invent a large number of useful daily tools, such as electric lights, water heaters, electric heaters, and electric fans.
In less than a year, the villagers of Konoha could no longer live without electricity.
Now the profits of the power plant have begun to show, it is just like a money printing machine, and the source of electricity is almost entirely converted from the chakra of the tailed beasts.
The demand for electricity in the entire Konoha has increased dramatically. If it is replaced with cheap alternative coal, the cost price will skyrocket. It will no longer be the original few hundred million taels, but several times more.
Once the ninja accepted the hired mission, he signed his name.
According to the rules of the ninja, this employment mission will not be declared over unless the ninja dies.
The matter is done. Even if it comes to the high-level meeting, no one will stand on his side. Each family is a shareholder of the power plant, and they are actually the ones paying the money.
Even a fool knows that once the contract is invalidated, Uzumaki Mito will definitely ask for a huge amount of money, and the extra cost will be the money of the ninja clans!
Uzumaki Mito is not in the right, and does not have the courage to stand against the Konoha ninjas. He can only regret his original choice over and over again in his heart.
How can you sign this just for a few million taels?
People always take pleasure in other people's misfortunes. When they are unlucky enough to fall into a pit dug by others, they will think about pitting others and making them as unlucky as themselves.
I didn't make any money from this deal, and you, a mere Sand Village, still want to make money?
Stop dreaming!
Uzumaki Mito immediately reported his reward figure to Chiyo: one million ryo for each draw of the Nine-Tails' chakra.
"really?"
Chiyo was somewhat tempted. Drawing the chakra of the tailed beast once was equivalent to an S-level mission. This deal sounded like a good deal.
Besides, this is the price that Konoha gave Uzumaki Mito. Chiyo is very clear about Uzumaki Mito's status in Konoha - the widow of the first Hokage - Konoha can't even cheat Uzumaki Mito!
This price must be very high!
"of course!"
"If you don't believe me, I can show you the contract."
Uzumaki Mito took out the signed contract that she regretted from her sleeve. She would take out this contract and look at it every day.
Mito, Mito, have you forgotten the shame of the chakra buying and selling contract?
Sooner or later, Uzumaki Mito will get her revenge!
Chiyo took the paper contract and read the contents. It really stated that Mito Uzumaki would be paid one million ryo for every time he drew the chakra of the tailed beast. There were deep wrinkles in the middle of the contract, and it was obvious that Mito Uzumaki often took it out to read.
"It seems that the price must be very high, otherwise Mito-sama wouldn't be so obsessed with taking out the contract to look at it. The crease in the middle is really..."
Chiyo already believed it about 80% and said it casually.
In just a moment, Uzumaki Mito's face darkened. Chiyo, you really are talking about things that are not relevant to the topic.
"That's a very high price indeed."
"Isn't that right, Hokage-sama?"
Uzumaki Mito's expression quickly returned to normal. She couldn't let Chiyo see the flaw, so she made excuses while speaking sarcasticly to Uchiha Kusunoki.
"Hahaha the price is indeed very high. After all, if the price was lower, Mito-sama wouldn't have signed on his own initiative!"
Uchiha Nan immediately hit back, emphasizing the word "active", which made Uzumaki Mito's expression change.
Chiyo was still immersed in the joy of making money and did not notice the secret confrontation between the two.
"Mito-sama, you are more experienced and know how often the tailed beasts can draw chakra."
".As long as the tailed beasts recover, they can be drawn at least four times a year, and at most six to seven times a year."
Chiyo did a simple calculation in her mind and realized that it would only take about half a year to pay off the debt, and the rest would be all profit. The Sand Village would be able to earn an additional five million taels of income every year, which was a considerable amount of money for the impoverished Sand Village.
"Then it's decided!"
Chiyo nodded in satisfaction. She had achieved such a great negotiation result in just one day. Not only did she get a house that could suppress Shukaku for free, but she also generated an annual income of about 5 million taels for the Sand Village. Hahahaha. So cool, so cool!!!
"Since you have made up your mind, Chiyo, I will send an Anbu ninja to deliver the contract to your residence in a while. Just sign it and have the Anbu ninja send it back."
Uchiha Nan remained calm. Since Chiyo had offered her head to him for him to chop off, he had no choice but to do the deal.
"Then it's a deal, Hokage-sama.
Chiyo couldn't help but smile after she finished speaking, with a hint of cunning in her smile, she had her own little plan in mind, the Nine-Tail's chakra is much more than the One-Tail's chakra. Well, it is many times more, and the contract states that the charge is based on the number of times, and it is not based on the chakra capacity at all.
The Hokage and Uzumaki Mito in front of him seemed to have overlooked this loophole, so it was the Sand Village that should take advantage of it.
Although Lord Hokage has always been considering the entire ninja world, and the alliance between Sand Village and Konoha is a great benefit to Sand Village, the Sand Village is too poor and must seize every opportunity to strengthen itself.
Chiyo silently apologized to Uchiha Nan in her heart.
The three of them were very satisfied. They all felt that they had gotten a good deal and that they all had a bright future. They left the Konoha Power Plant together talking and laughing.
After spending the entire afternoon at the power plant, Uchiha Nan should have been off work by now.
As for asking Uchiha Nan to work overtime to discuss the remaining cooperation agreement with Chiyo, that is definitely impossible.
work overtime?
That must be impossible!
It would be better to go home early to see Feng and Ling. It seems that I haven't seen Tobirama for a long time. He should be working honestly in the basement and being a research slave for me.
