Naruto: Yes, Uchiha-sama!

His tone was that of an incompetent husband.

"Why is Konoha so mean!"

"The Uzumaki clan can ally with whomever they want. This is our freedom!"

It is entirely the Uzumaki clan's freedom to want to form an alliance through marriage with the Akatsuki Village. Even Konoha, as a blood ally, has no way to interfere in this matter.

So Konoha really has no choice about this matter.

Now they can only watch the Uzumaki clan and the Akatsuki Village get involved with each other, and even have to attend their wedding ceremony with a smile after a while, and Konoha will have to send people to go.

After all, as the blood ally of the Uzumaki clan, Konoha still has to maintain the most basic decency.

If the situation becomes too ugly, outsiders will only think that Konoha is unreasonable, and then they will stand on the moral high ground and start pointing fingers at Konoha.

But Senju Tobirama definitely didn't want to go. Just thinking of Uchiha Makoto's smug smile at that time, Senju Tobirama had an urge to use his signature move, Flying Thunder God Slash, directly on Uchiha Makoto!

The Akatsuki Village envoy, having completed his mission, quickly left.

"I don't want to go."

"That brainless guy, Big Brother, probably doesn't realize the significance behind this matter. He would probably happily attend the wedding held in Akatsuki Village, but Big Brother just went out on a mission, carrying out several S-level missions at once, so he definitely can't attend."

Senju Tobirama thought about the candidates for attending Uchiha Makoto's wedding. As the invited party, Konoha was not only a nominal ally of the Akatsuki Village, but also a blood ally of the Uzumaki clan. It was absolutely impossible to send a marginal figure to attend this wedding casually. The person had to be a high-ranking Konoha official with a high enough status, otherwise he would definitely be gossiped about.

Think about it.

Senju Tobirama finally decided to let his sister-in-law Uzumaki Mito take the blame. In terms of status, she was the "real" Hokage's wife of Konoha. Letting her attend Uchiha Makoto's wedding would definitely be enough to give face to that evil brat Uchiha Makoto.

Moreover, the eldest sister-in-law is a member of the Uzumaki clan, so she can take this opportunity to find out the reason why the Uzumaki clan "cheated".

Konoha wouldn't feel embarrassed if the eldest sister-in-law came forward.

Simply the best of both worlds.

Senju Tobirama quickly made up his mind, then he looked at the "New Ninja" on the table in front of him, and his mood became even gloomier.

Such a good policy was actually thought up by that bastard Uchiha Makoto.

And it happens to be good for Konoha.

"Just copy the dog."

"But I still need to make a slight modification, not too obvious, from 1790 taels to 790 taels."

Senju Tobirama decided to sacrifice his own reputation for Konoha, so he copied this policy and made a slight modification, changing 1790 taels to 790 taels.

As for why this change?

That's naturally because Konoha doesn't have enough funds, so they can only make a degraded version for the time being.

Two weeks later.

Light and Shadow Office.

Uchiha Makoto tapped his desk lightly. He was waiting for a reply from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire. During this period, the Daimyo of the Land of Fire wrote to Uchiha Makoto almost every day to discuss the salt monopoly.

Although the Fire Country Daimyo acted as if everything was going well in his letter, Uchiha Makoto still felt the pressure the Fire Country Daimyo had been under these days from the content of his reply. Some of the Fire Country nobles were not only stupid but also greedy, and they had no idea how to write the word "death". So Uchiha Makoto repeatedly asked the Fire Country Daimyo if he needed him to solve some problems for him.

However, the Daimyo of the Fire Country always refused decisively.

He would rather spend more time and effort to exchange interests with those great nobles than continue to let Akatsuki Village interfere. These dirty things among their nobles are just normal internal conflicts, but once the ninjas get involved, the situation will be very different.

Even though the blame has been put on him, the Daimyo of the Fire Country is still trying his best to save the situation.

He just used Akatsuki Village as a verbal threat.

Not until it's absolutely necessary.

The Fire Country Daimyo will not allow the Akatsuki Village to interfere.

It didn't take long.

Uchiha Makoto received the letter from the daimyo, and immediately opened the envelope and read it from beginning to end. As he read, he couldn't help but smile, and finally even started to laugh wildly like an Uchiha.

"Hahaha!!"

"It's done!!"

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire and the Akatsuki Village put in a lot of effort to accomplish this. The Daimyo tried hard to convince many people, and the Akatsuki Village had previously made some people disappear. The salt market, which had been a mess, was finally monopolized again. Except for those parasites and layers of exploitation, the profits of salt finally appeared again!

Xiaonin Village took 35% of the dividends!

The profit for this month alone is at least more than 4 billion taels.

Every month!

The kind that comes in an endless stream!

The speed of making money is comparable to that of a money printing machine!

Even if the ninjas under Akatsuki Village worked their tails off and worked overtime to complete their missions, it would be impossible for Akatsuki Village to earn so much money from the commission it earned!

"No wonder, Lao Zhong, in ancient times, salt was a state monopoly, and trafficking in private salt was punishable by death. Yet, the illicit salt trade persisted, with wave after wave of people licking blood on the edge of the knife. What's the difference between this and the profit from selling powder? And those salt merchants in the south were said to be as rich as a country, so extravagant that they liked to keep a herd of skinny horses for fun."

After a burst of laughter, Uchiha Makoto sat in the chair and sighed repeatedly.

Not only did Akatsuki Village make a fortune this time, but even the big shots who had been complaining before chose to shut up and started singing praises to the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.

In the past, all the parasites at all levels in the Fire Nation had to stir a spoonful of salt porridge, but now all these people have disappeared, leaving only the top group of people in the Fire Nation to drink the porridge, so compared with the past, the great nobles of the Fire Nation are making more money.

So when the Daimyo of the Fire Country wrote this, he must have been in a very good mood. Uchiha Makoto could tell from the flamboyant handwriting that his efforts over the past few days were not in vain. Although the process was a bit messed up, the result was good. The great nobles of the Fire Country had to thank the Daimyo of the Fire Country in private.

Moreover, considering the indispensability of salt in daily life, the price of salt will definitely not be as low as it is now, and the price will definitely rise in the future.

As for how much it will increase?

Uchiha Makoto felt that the insects from the Land of Fire would not be so kind.

Although Akatsuki Village can make more money after the price increase, Uchiha Makoto still decided to step on the brakes at the critical moment. Making money is important, but at least the cattle and horses can afford to eat salt. But the price still has to go up now!

Now with this continuous flow of capital investment, Akatsuki Village can spend the saved 90 billion taels of money freely. The stories in "New Ninja" are not written in vain. Although its content is a bit abstract, as long as it is implemented in place, it can indeed enhance the strength of a ninja village and the overall quality of the ninjas.

The biggest problem

In fact, it is a funding issue.

When the granaries are full, people know etiquette; when they have enough food and clothing, they know honor and disgrace!

Find ways to spend money, attract investment, attract more people, attract more workers, provide more jobs, increase the GDP of the ninja village, and improve the living standards of the villagers.

The moon in Akatsuki Village will always be the roundest in the entire ninja world.

It has been more than a year since the establishment of Akatsuki Village, and Konoha was established earlier. According to the Konoha calendar, it is now the second year of Konoha. The future of Akatsuki Village is a state of vitality and prosperity. For the sake of Akatsuki Village, Lord Madara, please use Susanoo on Hashirama Senju!

Uchiha Makoto reviewed his plan and felt that there was no problem, then continued to read the remaining letters in his hand.

The second half of the letter is about Uchiha Makoto's wedding.

In the previous letter.

Uchiha Makoto has already told the Fire Country Daimyo about his relationship with Uzumaki Tsubaki Shizuku.

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire gladly accepted Uchiha Makoto's invitation.

He planned to come to Akatsuki Village in person to serve as a witness, but the Daimyo of the Land of Fire still felt a little regretful.

He hesitated for a few months, and now Uchiha Makoto's wife, Lord Guangying's wife, has been reserved.

In the ninja world, the rich are matched against the rich, and the poor are matched against the poor, and the emphasis is on matching people of equal status.

Uchiha Makoto came from a wealthy and powerful family, so naturally no one thought it was inappropriate for the Fire Country Daimyo to let his daughter marry Uchiha Makoto. However, the Uzumaki clan has taken the lead and let their daughter become a concubine. Now the Fire Country Daimyo cannot afford to lose face.

But the die is cast.

The Fire Nation Daimyo could only accept this reality.

Chapter 73: Lord Guangying’s prestige in the Akatsuki Village is so terrifying that no one can defeat him. Long live him!

"Master Makoto, Master Tsubaki-Shizuku is here."

When the announcement sounded, Uchiha Makoto looked up and saw Uzumaki Tsubaki Shizuku holding a food box. Ever since he got engaged, his daily meals had been taken care of by Uzumaki Tsubaki Shizuku alone.

Uchiha Makoto actually has his own team of chefs, so Uzumaki Tsubaki Shizuku doesn't need to do these little things herself. But according to her, "It is the obligation of the Six Paths Sage to prepare food for her husband every day."

That's all that has been said.

The chef team that was dedicated to serving Uchiha Makoto was sent to the staff cafeteria of Akatsuki Village. Now, the ninjas from the Anbu bring a basket of tested ingredients to Uzumaki Tsubaki Shizuku every day, and then Uzumaki Tsubaki Shizuku is responsible for making these ingredients into delicious food, and finally deliver it to Uchiha Makoto's office. Because of his busy work, Uchiha Makoto seldom has the opportunity to go home for dinner.

"Tsubaki Shizuku, thank you for your hard work."

"Master Guangying is a very busy man. It's not easy to see you. I can only meet you when I deliver food to you."

Uchiha Makoto greeted each other, and the two of them gradually became familiar with each other. Uzumaki Tsubaki Shizuku was already able to joke with Uchiha Makoto in a tone that was half coquettish and half complaining.

But it's just a joke.

What you said is true.

The more funds invested.

The village has more affairs to deal with.

The longer Uchiha Makoto stays in the office, the more time he spends. It's like a logical dead loop. Of course, this is just Uchiha Makoto's happy trouble. If Senju Tobirama had such abundant funding, he would have to work two shifts, one working day and night in the laboratory, and the other working day and night in the office.

He's a single guy anyway.

Uchiha Makoto does have some free time at night, but Uzumaki Tsubaki Shizuku is still his fiancée, so it is impossible for her to live directly in Uchiha Makoto's big villa. Once she moves in, there will definitely be constant gunfire, and Uchiha Makoto is really looking forward to it.

The two of them sat together and chatted while eating lunch, deepening their relationship.

"The young couple is having dinner."

Uninvited guests suddenly visit

Shinji Uzumaki looked at the two people who were "talking about love" in front of him, greeted them, and then he sighed in his heart. Young people nowadays are really not smart at all. Their methods of cultivating feelings are so crude. They are already nominally husband and wife, why don't they just live together, get things done quickly, and have a child? Only then can Shinji Uzumaki feel at ease.

"This old man definitely has something up his sleeve."

Uchiha Makoto only took a glance at the old man's expression and felt that he must be thinking something extremely dirty.

But he didn't care about these.

Compared to these insignificant things.

Uchiha Makoto is more concerned about the progress of the sealing barrier in Akatsuki Village.
