Konoha: The thirty-year-old Uchiha is not motivated.

Chapter 220 A Blond Youth Who Looks Familiar

"Brother Hashirama, is there any difficulty?"

Uchiha Gin pulled out a chair familiarly and sat on it boldly, crossing his legs at the same time. He glanced at the bright red numbers on the desk, and there was a hint of understanding in his slightly narrowed eyes.
From the unconcealed embarrassment on Senju Hashirama's face, he had probably guessed what difficulties this young brother who had just become the village chief had encountered.

"Ah this."

If the person who came was Uchiha Madara, Senju Hashirama might have spoken freely, cried and complained, and then defrauded an angel investment that would never be repaid, but the person who came was Uchiha Gin, which made him a little embarrassed to speak.
After all, Uchiha Gin is Momoka's good friend. If it weren't for his son's very smooth hair and bright eyes, he would have doubted the other party's motive for giving red envelopes during festivals.

"Brother, let me tell you."

The village is the most important thing. You, Hashirama Senju, are embarrassed to offend others, but I, Tobirama Senju, don't care about these social etiquettes.
Then he turned around and looked at Uchiha Gin, who looked calm and composed, and handed him the financial report. His scarlet eyes lingered on the other's fluffy curly hair for a moment before he continued to speak, his tone unusually not stiff.

"According to the pre-planned plan, the basic infrastructure of the village has been basically completed, but there are still some problems in several important places, so construction cannot start smoothly."

"Um, let me see. No way, you don't even have the money to repair the Hokage Building?"

Uchiha Gin had already vaguely sensed something was wrong from what Tobirama Senju said. He reached out to take the financial report and after a closer look, he couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.
"Why did you add so many residential areas?"

Uchiha Gin pointed at the huge number of residential areas added later in the financial report and asked with a frown,

"Well~ they are all big brothers"

Hearing Uchiha Gin's soul-searching question, Senju Tobirama covered his face with his hands, looking ashamed to face others, and directly sold out the culprit, Senju Hashirama.

"Haha, so many ninja clans have submitted applications to us. We can't let them come and have no place to live, right?"

As the initiator of the financial deficit, Senju Hashirama smiled awkwardly, rubbed his head, and argued for his actions.
"If they want to join, just let them come and build it themselves. Why are you in such a hurry?"

Unexpectedly, the pillars of Konoha in the future have already begun to gather. Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows and continued,

"It is our Konoha that provides them with peaceful shelter. It is good enough that we do not ask them for money, and we also provide food and accommodation?"

"That's right, brother. You are really lowering your status by doing this."

Could it be that Senju Tobirama agreed with Uchiha's opinion? He looked at his elder brother with scarlet eyes, and the harshness in his eyes was visible to the naked eye.

"Alas, now that the matter is done and the residential area has been built, it's too late to say anything!"

Even though he was the leader of Konoha, Senju Hashirama still had no dignity in front of these two people. He just lowered his head timidly and shouted in a very bad tone,
"So, you are looking for your eldest cousin to borrow money?"

Throwing the financial report aside, Uchiha Gin looked at the Senju brothers in front of him, sighed helplessly, and asked,

"Haha, you're really good at judging people~"

Senju Hashirama smiled upon hearing this, and stepped forward enthusiastically, placing his large hands on Uchiha Gin's shoulders and kneading them vigorously. His pair of bright eyes narrowed into a slit, revealing a cunning light.

Tsk! It's so heartbreaking. Look at what power has brought to men.
"My dear brother, although I want to help you, the landlord has no surplus food."

Facing the attentive Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Gin showed an embarrassment, and then talked about the current situation of the Uchiha clan.

"You don't know how expensive firewood and rice are until you run a household. The Uchiha clan is not as wealthy as your Senju clan. Every penny we spend is spent wisely. Excluding the cost of materials, the construction of the clan land was built brick by brick with the free help of clan members~"

"Clan members? But I heard that your Uchiha clan hired architects from other countries at high salaries to design and build your clan land?"

Senju Tobirama, who was standing by, frowned after listening to Uchiha Gin's complaints and ruthlessly exposed the true lies of the curly-haired boy.

The Land of Waves has long been famous for its expertise in construction and infrastructure. For the construction of this clan land, Uchiha Gin specifically contacted Uchiha Tajima and asked him to send a large number of construction teams from the Land of Waves to help build the Uchiha clan land. In addition to the craftsmen from the Land of Waves, there were also many Uchiha clan members who wanted to go home to visit.

"Hey~ You mean the masters of Wave Country, right? Actually, this is the situation."

I didn't expect that Senju Tobirama would keep such a close eye on the Uchiha clan. As soon as I sent some experts from my uncle's place, they were discovered by this guy. Fortunately, they were not exposed. Uchiha Gin's eyes rolled and he had a plan in mind.
"We have signed a contract with the Land of Waves. The Uchiha clan paid a small portion of the remuneration as a down payment. After the clan land is built, we will return the remaining balance to the Land of Waves in proportion every year, including the principal and interest."

"Is there such a good thing?"

When Hashirama Senju heard this overly advanced contract, his eyes lit up. In this day and age, is it still possible to get on the bus first and buy the ticket later?

"Both principal and interest? How much is the interest?"

Compared to his simple-minded brother, the younger brother, Tobirama Senju, is concerned about the interest. If the Wave Country is really so easy to talk to, then the Senju clan can also sign a contract with them. In this way, the construction of the village will be guaranteed for the time being. "It's quite high, thirty-five points?"

Uchiha Gin's heart tightened. Why did this white-haired guy look like he was investigating something? He was worried that the other party would investigate, so he told him what he thought was a high interest rate. This interest rate was only one point lower than the loan shark standard, just to make this guy give up.

However, he still underestimated the lending standards of the ninja world.

"Quick! Give me the contact information of Wave Country."

As soon as he finished speaking, Senju Tobirama showed an impatient expression, and instantly flashed in front of Uchiha Gin, grabbed his shoulders, and urged,

"Huh? Thirty-five o'clock. Didn't you hear that?"

This shake confused Uchiha Gin. The interest rate was 35 points. Anyone would shake their head when seeing this. Why was this guy so impatient?

"I heard it sincerely. You Uchiha clan are really good at hiding things. You actually enjoyed this good thing by yourself."

"what???"

In the end, under the persistence of Senju Tobirama, Uchiha Gin had no choice but to bite the bullet and leave the contact information of the Wave Country. In the end, he had lost his usefulness and was kicked out by Senju Tobirama.

"Tsk, that's weird, are you happy taking out a small loan?"

After coming out of the temporary office building of Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Gin went straight back to the clan land that was under construction. Looking at the busy construction site, he stopped a unfamiliar craftsman.

"My fellow prisoner, where is your leader?"

"Huh? Who are you?"

The craftsman who was stopped by Uchiha Gin still had tools in his hands. Facing the strange curly-haired man who delayed his work, he did not have a good face, so he pulled the other's hand and said impatiently,
"I am your employer, brother, please give me some face~"

Uchiha Gin was not angry at the other party's impolite behavior. Instead, he looked at the strand of golden hair under the other party's helmet with curiosity and explained in a calm tone,

"Oh, it's the boss. Sorry, sorry, I was rude~"

When the young craftsman heard that it was his employer, he immediately changed his expression, smiled as bright as the sun, and bowed respectfully to Uchiha Gin.
"It's okay. I was the one who disturbed your work first. Is your brother from Bo Country?"

"Yes, I was born and raised in the country of Waves."

Hearing Uchiha Gin's question, the young man did not hide anything, his blue eyes were full of sincerity.
"What do you think of the Fire Nation?"

Staring intently at the familiar face of the young man in front of him, Uchiha Gin raised his eyebrows and asked,

"It's pretty good. The climate is much better than that of Wave Country. If I have the chance, I would like to settle here~"

"Welcome welcome~"

After chatting with the blond craftsman for a few words, Uchiha Gin followed his instructions and found the leader of the craftsmen of the Wave Country.

"Master Yin!"

After meeting the leader of the craftsmen of Wave Country, Uchiha Gin hadn't spoken yet, but the other party bowed to Uchiha Gin respectfully. When he was puzzled, the other party formed seals with both hands, and as a puff of smoke dissipated, the strange craftsman turned into a member of the Uchiha clan with black hair and black eyes.
"Um, are you back to visit relatives too?"

I knew that there were many clan members who came back to visit their families among the craftsmen, but I didn't expect that this leader was also from the Uchiha clan. I asked curiously,
"Your Excellency, I am the contact person sent by the old clan daimyo to be responsible for liaison."

Hearing Uchiha Gin's question, the tribe member immediately shook his head and told Uchiha Gin the identity of his contact person.
"The daimyo has ordered that I only contact you and will not acknowledge anyone else."

"My uncle is quite careful. Since he is one of us, let me tell you something."

I had originally thought about informing the craftsmen from Wave Country about the fabricated loan to build the clan land. Now that we are all on the same side, it will be much easier.

So, Uchiha Gin told this clan member exactly what he wanted to do with the loan to repair the clan land, and finally told him that if the Senju clan came to them, they should pay the interest rate, sign the contract, and then repair the land for them.

"Ah? Thirty-five points?"

After listening to Uchiha Gin's arrangement, the clan member looked at him strangely, with a strong sense of doubt in his tone, and confirmed again,
"Master Yin, are you sure it's thirty-five points, not three hundred and fifty?"
