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

Chapter 221 Brother and sister recognize each other, the girl's choice
"Oh! I was careless, I was careless~"

After being educated by a tribe member disguised as the chief craftsman, Uchiha Gin couldn't help but beat his chest and stamp his feet, wailing in frustration, which could be heard clearly from several streets away.
The so-called wealth is found in danger!

In this war-torn age, the lending business is an extremely risky one. There is no guarantee that the borrower will be arrested as soon as he steps out of the door, or that the borrower may default on his debts by force of will. Under the influence of these uncertain factors, the industry standards for this business are extremely strict.

For general loans, even with collateral, the interest rate is 200%. If there is no collateral and the loan is guaranteed purely by the spirit of the contract, the interest rate will only double.

"If I had known the market earlier, I would have missed a great opportunity to cheat Baimao~"

Compared to the small amount of money lost, what disappointed Uchiha Gin more was the missed opportunity to trick Senju Tobirama. But now that things have come to this and the words have been spoken, he might as well consider it as contributing to the construction of Konoha.

From now on, I can pat the gate of Konoha and proudly tell others that this is my donation~
A few days later, when Uchiha Gin saw the familiar blond craftsman leading a group of people heading towards the Senju clan's territory, he knew that the contract between the two parties had been concluded.

Doesn't that mean I'm now considered a creditor of Konoha?

"Brother, are we really going?"

Just as Uchiha Gin was wandering outside, a tall black-haired figure, dragging a very reluctant white-haired man, walked towards Uchiha Gin's current residence.

"I still have a lot of official business to attend to. How about you go alone, brother?"

Senju Tobirama, who looked extremely unhappy, looked at his excited elder brother and said with a frown,

"How can this be possible? Brother Yin has helped us solve our most pressing problem. We should come to thank him both for public and private reasons."

Holding his brother in one hand and a basket of yellow mysterious fruit in the other, Senju Hashirama smiled brightly and patiently explained to the very resistant Senju Tobirama,

"I was the one who negotiated this!"

Thinking back to the stinky face of the chief craftsman of the Wave Country and the humble attitude of Tobirama Senju during the negotiation, I was filled with anger.
"If it weren't for Brother Yin's matchmaking, how would we have the opportunity to sign a construction contract at a nearly free interest rate?"

Looking at his ignorant younger brother, Senju Hashirama was a little angry. This Tobirama was good in every way except his temper. He was very stubborn, unlike the well-behaved Watama and the lovely Itama, which made him worry-free.

"Hey, just this once, okay?"

Thinking back to his two younger brothers and sisters who died in the war, Hashirama Senju suddenly felt sad, and his tone towards Tobirama Senju softened. He only had this one younger brother now, so if he didn't indulge him, who would?

"Well, since you said so, I will go there reluctantly."

Facing his elder brother who had surrendered to him, Senju Tobirama sighed inwardly, isn't it just to thank an Uchiha? For the sake of curly hair, he would go there himself.

"Haha, I knew you were the most obedient, Tobirama~"

After a while, according to the route they had inquired about in advance, the two arrived in front of an extremely imposing wooden building. Looking at the gorgeous building made of pure wood, the two Qianshou brothers had their own thoughts in their hearts.
"Tsk, this curly-haired guy is indeed as rich as the legend says. I wonder if his origins are legitimate or not."

A certain white-haired man looked at the small building in front of him, which was many times more magnificent than his own home, and said to himself with a sour look in his heart,

"Um, this house is a product of Wood Release?"

Compared to his brother's thoughts, Senju Hashirama was completely confused. As the first and only user of Wood Release today, he could clearly sense the Wood Release aura emanating from the small western-style building in front of him.
However, the Wood Release: House-Building Technique has not yet appeared in his skill column.

"Dong Dong Dong~"

With doubt in his heart, Senju Hashirama stepped forward and knocked on the door decorated with gorgeous patterns.

"Hey! You curly-haired baboon, did you forget to bring it again?"

Hearing the knock on the door, Senju Itama, who was lying on the sofa in a daze, had a hint of helplessness in her black pupils. She thought that Uchiha Ginze who had just gone out had returned. She turned over with a grunt, shook her head and walked over. After opening the door, she didn't even look at him, and complained in an extremely impatient tone. As soon as she finished speaking, she found that the other party didn't talk back. She looked closely in surprise and was immediately scared to death.
"Boom!!!"

Qian Shou Banjian, who was quick-eyed and quick-handed, slammed the door shut in the moment the other party was stunned. A person leaned against the door, her body trembling violently, not knowing whether it was out of fear or excitement. Her black eyes were trembling wildly, and the veins on her white hands against the door were bulging, and the black and white hair on her head was also wet with sweat.

Now there are only her and Uchiha Hikaru in the house, but for some reason, the old woman has been making a lot of noise at night and not sleeping, and sleeping soundly during the day, which means she is left alone.

"Brother, who is so rude?"

Because the tall figure of Senju Hashirama blocked his view, he did not see the person who opened the door. He walked forward in confusion, patted his motionless elder brother, and asked with a suspicious look,

Humph~ How come the Uchiha people have no manners at all? Unlike us, the Senju clan, the men are all humble gentlemen, and the women... let’s not talk about them.

"Tobirama, pinch me."

Just when Senju Tobirama was complaining in his heart, Senju Hashirama, who seemed to be under a spell, suddenly spoke,

"Ah? When did you develop this hobby?" After hearing his elder brother's words, Tobirama Senju was confused for a moment, but he still obediently pinched the soft flesh on Hashirama Senju's waist, then looked at the other's flushed old face and asked,

"Huh~ Are you really pinching me?"

Carefully touching the wound on his waist, he waited for a few breaths for it to recover. Senju Hashirama frowned, his eyes full of suspicion. He looked at the closed door, rubbed his frowned brows, turned around and said to his brother,

"I may have been too tired recently. I actually saw the souls of the dead."

"Huh? How is that possible? It must be Uchiha Gin playing tricks!"

Senju Tobirama, who has always believed in science, heard such incredible remarks and immediately said that everything was made up by Uchiha Gin. How could there be such monsters in the world?

Death: I've got you figured out!

"Really! I saw a woman who looked like my mother, she..."

Seeing that his brother didn't believe it, Senju Hashirama hurriedly explained. The surprise in his eyes didn't seem fake, which made Senju Tobirama's heart sink. Are there really ghosts in the world?

Death: Okay, okay, I’ll vomit it out of my stomach again!
"You must have seen it wrong. Mother has been dead for many years."

In the end, Senju Tobirama chose to believe in science, shook his head, and interrupted his brother's nonsense.

"I'm not mistaken, it's definitely mom!"

"Then tell me, how old is that woman, what does she look like, and what color is her hair."

Faced with his elder brother's certainty, Senju Tobirama had no choice but to ask him to describe the appearance of the woman in the house, so as to determine whether Senju Hashirama was hallucinating.

"He's probably in his twenties. He looks like his mother, but there's a strange mark on his head. He has short hair, and it's half black and half white. Ahhhh!"

Upon hearing this, Hashirama Senju began to recall the woman he had just glimpsed. He first mentioned her age, then her appearance that left a deep impression on him. Finally, when he mentioned her hair, he paused, thought about it carefully, and then mentioned the other person's strange hair color. As a result, this rare hair color touched a switch in his heart, and he screamed in surprise instantly.

"Ah! Ah! Ah"

As the listener, Tobirama Senju was picturing the woman described by Hashirama Senju in his mind. At the moment when his elder brother mentioned hair color, a portrait that he was extremely familiar with appeared in his mind, and he was so surprised that he burst out in three tenor notes.

"It's so noisy! Can you guys shut up?"

Amid the screams of the two brothers, Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju, itachi Senju suddenly opened the door with an unsuspecting look on his face. With his dark eyes, he looked at the two men in front of him who had extremely high status in Konoha without any fear, and shouted,

"Received!"*2
"Come in, and remember to change your shoes."

Just now, Senju Itama, who was hiding behind the door, felt a mess in her heart. So many years had passed, and even though the Senju clan led by her eldest brother defeated the Uchiha clan, she still didn't dare to appear in front of the Senju clan. There was fear involved, but more of it was reluctance.

She was very scared that after she returned, she would not be able to get along with Uchiha Gin like before.

She didn't want to gamble, and she didn't dare to gamble.

However, now that the two tribes are building a village together, my identity will be exposed sooner or later. In this case, I might as well cut the Gordian knot and make this matter clear.

"are you."

Looking at the imposing woman, Hashirama Senju, who felt a little uneasy because she looked too much like his mother, followed her on tiptoe. After a long while, he asked cautiously, with a thirst for knowledge in his eyes that was about to blow the roof off the roof.
"Impossible, you should have died long ago."

Compared to the fearful Senju Hashirama, the thoughtful Senju Tobirama frowned and stared at the tall woman in front of him. Looking at her familiar face and her rare hair color, he asked coldly,

The sacrificed Senju Koji once swore that his young sister had been besieged by several adult Uchiha and there was no possibility of survival.

"No, I'm not dead."

Seeing that the two had confirmed his identity, Senju Itama no longer hid himself and sat on the sofa. He picked up the cute version of Sanwei Isobu beside him and slowly told his two brothers about the past events many years ago with a dazed look of memories.

"Back then, it was Uchiha Gin who withstood the pressure and saved me from the hands of the vicious Uchiha clan members."

Talking about the past, Senju Itama recalled the Uchiha Gin who carried him on his back and refused to let go no matter how many difficulties and dangers there were. An inexplicable smile quietly appeared on the corners of his cold mouth.

This smile was caught by the always perceptive Senju Tobirama, which instantly set off alarm bells in his heart. He vaguely realized that something big might happen to his only child, Xiaobaicai.

".So, I lived with him, but don't get me wrong, he didn't do anything bad to me. On the contrary, because of the strange name my father gave me, he thought I was a boy for a long time, hehe~"
