Naruto: Yes, Uchiha-sama!

"As long as you agree to this, everything about Konoha Village's funding will be easy to discuss."

Uchiha Cheng said this with a solemn oath.

Anyway, the expenses of Konoha Village are all paid by the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. He is only responsible for negotiations. Moreover, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire has plenty of money now and is terrified of Konoha, so he doesn't mind spending money to avoid disaster.

Uchiha Makoto had no psychological burden at all in taking the money from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to do his own business.

"A very high price?"

"Can your offer be higher than the sky?"

Uchiha Makoto: "You might as well tell me."

Senju Tobirama felt that the pace of today's negotiations was completely controlled by Uchiha Makoto. He suspected that the Fire Country Daimyo was being controlled by Uchiha Makoto with illusions, but now was not the time to think about that. So he raised a few fingers and said in a loud voice: "Eight billion ryo!"

Hashirama Senju on the side couldn't help but widen his eyes. At present, the working capital of Konoha Village is not even 10 billion taels. This is when Konoha was burdened with the infamy of tulips and finally sold a wave of tulips to recover some of the losses. Otherwise, there would only be a few hundred million taels left.

Konoha's financial situation is very tight now. When discussing with him in the office before, Senju Tobirama said that 5 billion ryo would be a very high price, even a sky-high price. He didn't expect that his younger brother would add 3 billion ryo to the price in order to persuade Uchiha Makoto to withdraw. You know, the daimyo only gave Uchiha Makoto 1 billion ryo at the beginning.

"Too little!"

Uchiha Makoto shook his head.

"Is it too much? This is the lowest price. Wait a minute. Did you say it was too little?"

Senju Tobirama couldn't help but widen his eyes.

"Slightly double it, 15 billion ryo. If it's Konoha, I can give you 10 billion ryo!"

Senju Tobirama was stunned by her beauty for a moment.

Uchiha Makoto!

Are you so ruthless?

He embezzled 5 billion taels while chatting and laughing?

Chapter 49: The enraged Senju Hashirama is extremely vicious! The accomplice of the evil, Senju Tobirama, is helping the evildoer to commit atrocities!

It’s smaller, the layout is smaller!

At this time, Senju Tobirama felt that his vision was really too narrow.

He originally thought that asking for 8 billion taels of funding was already a huge ask, but he didn't expect Uchiha Makoto to be even more exaggerated than him.

Fifty billion taels means greed.

He didn't even blink when he was talking just now, as if the 5 billion taels of silver originally belonged to him. It was really terrifying!

Senju Tobirama, who encountered such a thing for the first time in his life, showed a little hesitation. Faced with such an astronomical figure, although he was extremely tempted, he was also really worried about the opinion of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. Even though Uchiha Makoto in front of him patted his chest and said that he could fully represent the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to make the decision on this matter.

The Uchiha brat is born evil. Can we trust everything Uchiha Makoto says?

You must always be skeptical!

Senju Tobirama: "Isn't this a bad idea?"

Uchiha Makoto: "If you don't tell me and I don't tell anyone, who will know about this?"

Senju Hashirama: "But this is deceiving the Daimyo, and it's such a large amount of money."

"Oh, I see. You mean it's too much. Then you, Konoha, should take 8 billion ryo. I can actually take 7 billion ryo alone. You don't want it, but I do!"

While chatting and laughing, Uchiha Makoto planned to put all the 2 billion taels of silver that were used to bribe Konoha and serve as hush money into his own pocket.

As for the concerns of Hashirama Senju and Tobirama Senju, he didn't care at all. Even the Daimyo of the Land of Fire would feel the pain of losing 15 billion ryo.

But that was money taken from the national treasury, not from his own private treasury. The daimyo has always been clear about the distinction between public and private affairs, so even if it was painful, it was not unbearable. Moreover, the daimyo of the Land of Fire is still terrified of Konoha and doesn't mind spending money to ward off disaster.

"No, no, no, let's do this!"

Senju Tobirama immediately shook his head like a rattle. This was a full 2 ​​billion taels, how could he give it to Uchiha Makoto for free? Moreover, he also embezzled 5 billion taels that originally belonged to Konoha!

This born evil Uchiha brat!

The corruption is even worse than mine!

No wonder he spoke so arrogantly just now, with the look of a nouveau riche, so that's how it is!

The funds that were embezzled belonged to Konoha!

It's really so evil!

"no problem."

Uchiha Makoto smiled and nodded.

The two quickly reached a consensus. Even though they were arguing tensely just now, they both had smiles on their faces. Funds are the best lubricant. Uchiha Makoto used money to lubricate Senju Tobirama so much that he couldn't even close his legs.

Afterwards, Uchiha Makoto temporarily left Tobirama Senju and Hashirama Senju in this room, and he went alone to find the Daimyo of the Land of Fire to report the results of this negotiation.

"Your Highness, disaster has occurred!"

"Just now I almost had a fight with Hashirama Senju!"

As soon as Uchiha Makoto saw the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, he opened his mouth and spoke loudly. The Daimyo of the Land of Fire was so panicked when he heard Uchiha Makoto's voice that he almost fell off his chair.

"Cheng, what exactly happened just now?"

"Negotiations collapsed?"

"Is Senju Hashirama really going to rebel?"

The Fire Country Daimyo asked Uchiha Makoto a series of questions. He was really afraid of the ninja's iron fist sanctions. Then Uchiha Makoto roughly described the negotiation process. Well, it was actually a bunch of nonsense.

The furious Senju Hashirama looked ferocious! The accomplice of the evil, Senju Tobirama, was extremely vicious!

They came to the Land of Fire this time just to seek an explanation. How dare you, the daimyo and nobles, bully the Konoha Village like this? Don’t you want to live in shame?

"and then?"

"In the end, I had to persuade Hashirama Senju by using all my might and even bringing up the Uchiha clan!"

"That's good, that's good!"

"The Uchiha clan is indeed full of loyal warriors!

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief and praised the Uchiha clan. Although the members of the Uchiha clan had a bit of a bad temper, they were loyal!

"But Konoha is still asking for too much. Hashirama Senju's inherently evil brother, Tobirama Senju, said they must use 30 billion ryo to quell the fire. I finally managed to bargain the price down to half, so I can only give them 15 billion ryo, and this matter is considered settled!"

Uchiha Makoto seized the opportunity and insisted on not leaving any of the Senju brothers behind. He also gave Senju Tobirama a cold shoulder.

"Hiss, thirty billion taels!"

"Konoha has quite the appetite!"

"The two brothers of the Senju family are really greedy!!"

"Cheng, thank goodness you're here!"

A gloomy look appeared in the eyes of the Fire Country Daimyo, but he finally sighed helplessly. What he couldn't get on the battlefield, he certainly couldn't get at the negotiation table.

Konoha is so powerful!

"Fifteen billion taels, I'll give you this money!"

"Just think of it as spending money to ward off disaster."

"Cheng, your Akatsuki Village must become stronger as soon as possible. I will definitely support you with all my strength. I don't want to experience being forced like today again!"

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire looked at Uchiha Makoto with deep affection. Hashirama Senju and his Konoha were not even pretending anymore. They dared to come to the capital of the Land of Fire to threaten him. Who knows how arrogant and domineering they will be in the future!

"Don't worry, Your Highness."

"I will definitely try my best!"

"This is all for the Fire Nation!"

Uchiha said this sincerely.

The Fire Nation Daimyo was quite moved.

Sincerity is really loyalty that cannot be expressed in words!

"This is the total amount agreed upon during today's negotiations. Please review it, Your Highness."

"Okay, I'll take a look."

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire took the agreement from Uchiha Makoto and read it one by one. When he read that Konoha and Akatsuki Village would jointly protect the Land of Fire and maintain the Daimyo of the Land of Fire's dominance in the Land of Fire, he couldn't help but sneer on his face.

Guard me, guard the Fire Nation?

By the time your Konoha Village becomes fully grown and has the ability to completely control the Land of Fire, I'm afraid the situation will no longer be the same as it is today.

There is only one person in the Land of Fire who can call the wind and rain, and that is me. There is also only one ninja village that can shelter from the wind and rain, and that is Akatsuki. Konoha will sooner or later be a rebel!

It's not true!

"Cheng, you did a great job on this!"

"I'll leave it all to you."

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire once again demonstrated his high level of trust in Uchiha Makoto. With a wave of his hand, he handed all the agreement funds to him. As long as Uchiha Makoto thought there was no problem, he could stamp his own golden seal on these agreements today.

"Thank you for your trust, Your Highness!"

Things went even more smoothly than Uchiha Makoto had imagined. The Daimyo had preconceived ideas, and coupled with Hashirama Senju's extremely powerful strength and the conspiracy theory about Hashirama Senju that Uchiha Makoto had been promoting, the Daimyo of the Fire Country had almost determined that Hashirama Senju was a thick-faced and black-hearted conspirator. Under this logic, it was really difficult for the Daimyo of the Fire Country to discern the truth. At least from a logical point of view, there was nothing wrong with what Uchiha Makoto said.

Unless he was there at the time.

Unfortunately.

At that time, there were only three people in the room: Uchiha Makoto, Senju Tobirama, and Senju Hashirama.

Chapter 50: Akatsuki Village blows on the wind!

As the Fire Nation Daimyo stamped his golden seal on the agreement, the plot line proceeded as it did in the original work.

The era of ninja villages has truly arrived.

The change in the ninja economic model will inevitably bring about the renewal of the organizational form. The previous organizational form of the ninja clan, which was based on families to accept tasks, can no longer keep up with the development of the times.

They can only choose to follow or be drowned in this wave.
