023 Tamamo's Melancholy: Will my master abandon me?

What is the income situation of Konoha ninjas?

Just like he investigated the life of farmers, here is his information on the life of ninjas:

The reward for completing a D-level task once is 1 to 5000 taels.

This is the money you can get directly after deducting the commission from the ninja village.

D-level missions pose absolutely no risk to life or even injury.

This level of mission is considered a benefit and reward given to the Konoha ninjas by the nobles and wealthy businessmen of the Land of Fire. They deliberately assign these easy missions for them to play with.

Are you envious? This is the life of the younger generation in Konoha.

For a C-level mission, the reward for completing it once is 1 to 30000 taels.

This level is just the "potential for injury" level.

Even if the team's remuneration is divided equally, if you simply carry it out a few times, it can equal the money that a self-employed farmer earns in a year's hard work, not to mention the hard-working tenants and farmhands.

As for the troubles about the consumption of ninja tools and detonating tags, they were even more hilarious.

When ordinary people are still worrying about how to get their next meal, ninjas are thinking about "weapons" and can also buy some land as assets. The levels of their needs are different.

The hidden benefits of the Ninja Village are very good, including education and medical care.

The literacy rate and reading and writing rate of Shinobi Village are both above 90%, but the vast majority of people in this world are illiterate and cannot read or write.

While the people of the Ninja Village are enjoying the Ninja Village Hospital, medical ninjutsu, and medical equipment, many people in this world are still at a loss because of schistosomiasis.

There is no doubt that the quality of life of ninjas is overwhelmingly higher than that of ordinary people.

As for the mortality rate of ninjas?

The death rate of ninjas in peacetime is not high, but it will rise during war.

However, in the last Ninja World War, tens of millions of civilians from the Land of Fire died, right? The number of disabled and wounded soldiers was too numerous to count.

The main causes of abnormal deaths were famine, plague, and turmoil caused by the destruction of agricultural production. There were also many cases of soldiers and bandits slaughtering civilians. Therefore, we often heard the saying that "soldiers and bandits are one family."

Ashigaru, infantry, archers, cavalry, samurai, and ninjas, this is the entire military force of the Fire Nation.

The Fire Nation army suffered hundreds of thousands of casualties, including thousands of Konoha ninjas.

However, what is touching is that the leaders of Konoha Ninja are "the first to charge and die in times of trouble", and the Jonin are active on the front lines of the battlefield, instead of...

He hid himself in the back, fat and white like a pig, and tricked the cannon fodder into going to the front line as fuel.

However, based on the above situation, we can still see the gap in living conditions between ninjas who are military nobles and ordinary people.

Continuing to analyze, the class differences among ninjas:

Let’s first analyze from a national perspective: The Fire Nation is a powerful country.

The country is strong, with abundant tax revenues, sufficient military spending, a large population, a prosperous market, and endless tasks.

Not all countries have the material basis to establish the rule that "genin cannot go to the battlefield or perform dangerous missions."

Compared with ninjas from other countries, ninjas from the Fire Nation have the best life.

Below the Fire Nation, next is the Thunder Nation.

They have recently been working together to expand and strengthen their military. They are an emerging power in the ninja world and are sharpening their swords to challenge the status of the Fire Nation as the "central overlord".

Next is the Kingdom of Earth.

The ninjas of Takikuni are also good. They live in a peaceful place, and the country is not caught between big powers and rarely participates in wars.

The Wind Country was defeated in the Third Shinobi World War and signed a humiliating treaty: the Wind Country's mission hiring market was unilaterally opened to Konoha, and the country's nobles and wealthy businessmen could hire Konoha ninjas as well as Sand Village ninjas.

In addition, the daimyo of the Wind Country drastically cut Sunagakure's military spending, and the living conditions of their ninjas became relatively bad.

The Land of Water, this is the slide that cannot be touched at all, there seems to be a wave-like water shadow there.

Apart from that, being a ninja in the Land of Rice is also a very unlucky thing. The low-level test subjects are like guinea pigs, which are discarded after use.

It is not a ninja village "born for war", but a testing ground "born for data", where live experiments and organ harvesting are common.

Snake Princess: What? Do you like me? Do you like me as a scientist? But you are the price of scientific progress?

The small countries sandwiched between the big countries: the Rain Country and the Grass Country. The ninjas here don't have an easy time either, as they cannot avoid the war.

Years of war will not bring good financial revenue, and there will not be much military expenditure.

The nobles and wealthy businessmen had all left, and there weren't many tasks left.

Now that we have talked about the differences between countries, let’s talk about the differences between ninjas within a country, and this has to start with the history of the ninja village.

What does a ninja village consist of? The ninja clan, the ninja family, is the basic unit of a ninja village.

Why did Hashirama establish the "one country, one village system" to sign employment contracts with the country?

Because the ninja village had no appeal when it first appeared, many ninja clans in the country fought on their own and accepted employment from the nobles.

So, this is very interesting.

There are tens of thousands of ninjas in the Land of Fire. They are nominally considered "Konoha ninjas" and have Konoha forehead protectors on their heads.

However, they do not reside in Konoha.

How does the Hokage mobilize them? Only with the authorization of the Fire Nation. For example, in the event of a total war, the Fire Nation will give the Hokage the right to mobilize all the ninjas in the country and appoint him as the "General of the Ninjas".

This is how the difference in treatment between direct and collateral lines comes about.

The life of ninjas in the ninja village is naturally the best. Resource allocation is the top priority, and they enjoy industrialized life and welfare benefits.

You were born in Konoha. Even if you were the lowest person, you would meet the children of nobles in the "Siheyuan" every day. This was the guarantee of your household registration in Kyoto.

Since you have been on good terms with them since childhood, they will always take care of you to some extent, and if they are generous, they will even teach you a few tricks and find a business for you.

The places in the Ninja School have always been allocated within Konoha. The Konoha Ninja School has a fixed quota allocation: this quota is given to this family, that quota is given to that family, and some quotas are given to civilians and illegitimate children, so that it is balanced.

These places are given to the children of the clan leader or to people of the right age. In short, a suitable child is selected from within the family.

There are naturally differences within Konoha: big ninja clans, small ninja clans, and non-ninja clans.

The big ninja clans have accumulated a lot of wealth and resources. They have a lot of land and industries outside the ninja village. They are already veritable aristocrats.

In addition to bloodline limits, ninja families usually have "secret skills" that belong only to their own family, such as: Uchiha's fire escape and Hyuga's soft palm.

Even if you are not a ninja, it's not that you can't fight. There are people who are lucky, such as two of the three ninjas.

If you are lucky and a good master takes a liking to you, you will take off.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was attracted by their clean backgrounds: they had no surnames, no parents, and no family background, making them suitable to be his direct descendants.

At worst, even if you don't want to be a ninja, you can still earn a lot of money by working in Konoha's commercial street.

Welfare benefits are in place and children are able to read and write.

In short, the differences within Konoha are not that great. Mutual help, more meat than monks, and the presence of external enemies have promoted unity within the ninja village.

Even if they are a big family, they will support you when you are in trouble.

You can shamelessly marry into the family if you want, these are the advantages of having a Konoha household registration.

At this point, to sum up, a C-level task is already the income of a self-employed farmer's hard work for a whole year.

But the actual situation is even worse. It is impossible for farmers to save money and grain by not eating or drinking for a whole year.

The Kingdom of Waves is located on the southeast coast and is a poor, pocket-sized country.

Relying solely on farming, fishing, and other odd jobs to make a living, life is much more difficult than in the Fire Kingdom.

Since the arrival of the Cardo Group, they have been bullying the people, extorting money and grain, and squeezing the people's labor. The lives of the people in the Wave Country have become even worse, and it is not easy to raise money to build a bridge.

Menma and Red Bean met up in a town in Wave Country. The boy's eyes were filled with the bleak scene of the people's hardship and the selling of children and girls being common.

Heartless?

No, he is just too emotional and too sentimental.

Although Hongdou is not smart, she is a thoughtful woman and is very sensitive to the emotional changes of others.

Because she is also a lonely person.

After this, Menma follows Anko's instructions to gather intelligence on the Cardo Group active in the area.

These days, he either wanders the streets disguised as an orphan (as if he is an orphan/bushi), or disguises himself as an adult samurai to infiltrate the Cardo Group...

Menma Uzumaki seems to be very good at intelligence gathering. Within a few days of infiltrating the organization, he became a cadre and emptied out all the intelligence of the Cardo Group. He even built an intelligence network inside to collect intelligence:

The Cardo Group is a transnational smuggling gang under the guise of a business, doing a highly profitable business. Its main industries are: human trafficking, the production and sale of addictive drugs, and the trading of other contraband items.

This poor and weak country was chosen by them as the new industrial base.

Cardo has a wide network of contacts, including nobles, wealthy businessmen, officials, and landowners from all over the world.

With his financial resources, it would be very easy for him to hire a jonin.

If the annual income of a self-employed farmer is 1 and the reward for a C-level task is 1, then the assets of the richest businessman in the Fire Nation are more than 1000000000 billion.

This makes it clear that although ninjas seem to have high incomes, they are actually tools of violence bought by large landowners and wealthy businessmen with small amounts of money.

Even though Kado didn't have such an outrageous amount of assets, it was more than enough to hire a jonin, but...

His purpose of hiring ninjas was to fight against the Konoha ninjas, and no country would pass the review of this mission.

like...

Menma once gave such an example: the theoretical cost of building an aircraft carrier belonging to a major country is tens of billions of dollars, and the annual maintenance cost is the same.

The rich man can pay the money, but can he hire the country’s military force to fight people?

The bounty for the mission is just a small sum. A big ninja village will not ruin its reputation and morality for this little money, nor will it tear up a peace agreement for this little money. A small ninja village that is short of money does not have the military force and courage to be an enemy of Konoha.

Therefore, Cardo had no choice but to pay money to hire rebel ninjas in the underground market.

There are not many jonins in the street. Even in a big country, there are only three digits of jonins.

Besides, it’s not easy to hire a jonin.

The ninjas in service in the village are all polite and well-behaved, but those who become rebels are extremely rampant.

Genin and Chunin are all like this...

Masters at the level of Jonin are not only rare among the rebel ninjas, but they are also the ones that cannot be hired even with money.

This is not surprising, because on the surface, there are many exiled S-class rebel ninjas in the ninja world, but many of them are arrogant and unwilling to accept employment by others.

Scorpion of the Red Sand, Snake of Konoha, Itachi of the genocide, they are like dragons that are hard to find, and cannot be invited even if you want to. The masters active in the black market are actually second-rate compared to the T1 rank strongmen in the ninja world.

At night, the moonlight sprinkled on the woods. The boy hiding in the tree was leaning lazily on the branch with a piece of paper in his hand.

Remember the day...

"Boss, this is what you want to know."

Therefore, the person on this wanted poster is the one hired by Cardo.

"Momochi Zabuza is just as I thought, a second-rate fellow."

"Master is being so arrogant again~"

This was Tamamo's voice. The stunningly beautiful girl was sitting elegantly on the treetop just above Menma, blocking the moonlight.

If you look up, you are likely to see an unexpected scenery, which will be a beautiful scene like snow.

"This is not an opponent that the current Master can defeat~"

"I have a jonin Hatake who can take the thief's head."

"What if she loses?"

"It doesn't matter. I'll run away."

Tamamo covered her mouth and laughed wantonly.

"What the hell are you laughing at! When the enemy advances, I retreat. Do you understand?"
