After Uchiha Touhuan became the clan leader and served as the vice captain in the Security Department, due to time constraints, the Security Department only prepared an extremely simple office for him, with no extra decorations other than a desk and a file rack.

While he was away on a mission, the security department gave his office a small renovation.

Not only were the desks and chairs replaced with a new set, but the filing cabinets were also carefully organized. On each side of the office, there was a display shelf with a complete set of tea sets that looked like they were made by famous artists. Several kinds of expensive and fine teas were also carefully selected.

On the other side was an antique-looking sword rack, with the space for the swords empty, seemingly prepared for Uchiha Tohsen's Lightning Strike.

Uchiha Touhuan placed his ninja sword on the sword rack and looked at the wall behind his chair, which was the place he was most satisfied with.

The blank wall had no particularly complicated decorations, except for a calligraphy scroll hanging on the top of the wall with four large characters: "Political integrity and harmonious society".

Uchiha Touhuan sat down in his office chair, and not long after, Fugaku sent someone to deliver a summary of the complaints received during this period to Uchiha Touhuan.

Uchiha Tohkan selected a group of people who had received the most complaints and had them, along with their captains, summoned to his office.

Before long, Uchiha Touhuan's office was filled with people.

Uchiha Touhuan looked up and sized up the main targets of the complaints, and found that most of them were children who had graduated from the Ninja Academy a few years ago, and some were even younger than Uchiha Touhuan.

That makes sense. Those who are a little older know a bit about self-preservation, while those who have just graduated from the ninja academy are probably still full of the Will of Fire. They are naturally reckless and stubborn in their actions, so it's not surprising that they are complained about by those troublemakers who think they are losing out if they don't take advantage of the situation.

Meanwhile, the captains who led them on patrol and duty, who were originally members of the Uchiha clan, were also quite helpless. After Uchiha Touhuan took power, they repeatedly emphasized that they must enforce the law with a smile before going out on patrol every day. Their team members did so, but the complaint rate remained high and there was nothing they could do about it.

Uchiha Tohkan laid out the complaint documents in front of them one by one.

"Deputy Captain Dou Huan, it's really not their fault. They were just enforcing the law impartially, and they strictly adhered to the discipline of smiling during the enforcement process. These complaints can be considered malicious complaints," a squad leader stepped forward to explain.

"I know, I've reviewed all your law enforcement records," Uchiha Touhuan said. "I didn't call you here to punish you."

Uchiha Touhuan looked at the civilian ninjas behind the squad leaders and asked, "How have you been feeling working at the Security Department these past few days?"

"Reporting to the deputy captain, the work went very smoothly. We are honored to work in the garrison!" At this moment, a bolder boy puffed out his chest and replied.

"Tamura Aranosuke," Uchiha Touken glanced at the file and called out the man's name. "Very good. Within three days of taking office, he has handled three cases of street vendors obstructing traffic and arrested seven villagers who were drunk and causing trouble."

"This is what I should do!" Tamura Arashinosuke said proudly.

"But your complaint rate..."

Before Uchiha Touhuan could finish speaking, Tamura Arashi lowered his head and became listless.

"Why are you making that face?" Uchiha Touhuan suddenly laughed. "In our security department, the complaint rate isn't included in our performance evaluation."

"Huh?" Tamura Aranosuke raised his head in confusion. To be honest, he was prepared to be scolded. He had a monthly salary of 80,000 yen plus a subsidy, and on his first day of work, he even received a powerful C-rank ninjutsu that he had never dared to dream of before. Getting scolded was no big deal.

But Uchiha Touhuan's words stunned him on the spot. The vice-captain called us over, not to scold us.

"Although our position is destined to be misunderstood by the villagers, it is only right to suffer some grievances in order to serve Konoha. We should always remember the teachings of the Will of Fire. Everyone should have faith that we are doing a great thing." Uchiha Touhuan patted Tamura Aranosuke on the shoulder and said.

After saying that, Uchiha Touhuan pulled a thick red envelope from his pocket and put it into the other person's hand.

"Well done! This is a reward for your hard work these past few days!"

Then, Uchiha Touhuan took out a stack of red envelopes and handed them out one by one, so that everyone in the office received one.

After sending out the red envelopes, Uchiha Touhuan returned to his desk and continued speaking.

"I hope everyone will continue to work hard and strive together to create an even better Konoha Village!"

The civilian ninjas who received the red envelopes were overjoyed, and Tamura Arashinosuke even raised his hand in salute: "Salute to the vice-captain! Loyalty!"

"loyalty!"

"Loyalty! Sincerity!" Uchiha Touhuan returned the greeting.

After this group left, Uchiha Tohkan summoned the next group and repeated the process.

Throughout the morning, everyone in the entire security force received red envelopes from Uchiha Touhuan. The original Uchiha clan members were fine, knowing that their new clan leader was always very generous. But the newly joined civilian ninjas were different. After receiving the red envelopes, they were all like they had been injected with chicken blood, and the negative emotions brought about by the high complaint rate were completely swept away.

After handing out the red envelopes, Uchiha Touhuan finally had some free time and made himself some tea in his office.

The distribution of red envelopes—20,000 for the battalion commander, 10,000 for the squad leader, and 5,000 for the ordinary members—cost less than three million. This was nothing to Uchiha Tohuan, who currently held a huge sum of money. However, Uchiha Tohuan also understood that this money could only temporarily stabilize the fluctuating morale within the Security Department and raise everyone's tolerance threshold for the troublemakers in Konoha. To truly resolve this matter, they needed an opportunity to vent their dissatisfaction caused by the malicious reports.

As for the villagers' satisfaction? Uchiha Touhuan never cared about that. The so-called smiling law enforcement, including the complaint mailboxes and security departments standing outside, was just a facade. These troublemakers in Konoha were dissatisfied? They'd behave themselves when the police baton hit them.

"I hope those two old geezers won't keep me waiting too long," Uchiha Touhuan thought to himself as he sipped his tea.

At that moment, there was a knock on the door of Uchiha Touhuan's office.

"Come in."

After the office door was pushed open, Uchiha Touhuan looked at the person who came in and smiled.

"Shisui, you've come at the right time. I was just about to look for you. Here, take this red envelope. Everyone in the security department will get one."
