After a long period of calm, he looked at the dark circles and asked, "Did you accept it?"
"I've got it!" Dark Eyes nodded.
"Hmph, you accepted five thousand taels? Where's your dignity? Where's the dignity of Uchiha!" Uchiha Fugaku looked at the dark circles under his eyes and spoke word by word.
now!
Many members of the security department have already returned. They leaned tiredly in their chairs and watched the conversation between Uchiha Fugaku and Dark Eyes, too lazy to interrupt.
"Five thousand taels? That's the living expenses for a family, why not?" Seeing Fugaku staring at him angrily and complaining about him taking the five thousand taels, Dark Circle also exploded: "Do we have to wait for Konoha to pay us? Or can the family share some of the burden with us?"
Now some people in the Security Department have run out of money, and these five thousand taels can last for a while!
Moreover, they were completely disappointed with Konoha.
"You" Uchiha Fugaku was speechless at this moment, because he knew very well that he might not be able to receive Konoha's salary this time.
Looking at the exhausted clansmen around him, he seemed to have made up his mind: "I will personally take you to the Uchiha City Chamber of Commerce. I don't believe that he will not give me, the clan leader, face. The family is in a critical moment. I want to see if he will give me, the clan leader, 5,000 taels as well."
finished,
He stood up and prepared to go find Uchiha Banjo.
"Dad, where are you going?" Just then Itachi walked in from outside. He got off work early today from the Hokage's office and wanted to come to the Guard Department to see his father, who had not been home for days.
But as soon as he arrived at the Security Department, he saw his father and the people from the Security Department preparing to go out.
He frowned, wondering where this was going.
"The Uchiha Chamber of Commerce in Half City!"
The next chapter will be at night
(End of this chapter)
43. Chapter 43 Want money? Sorry, I don’t have a penny!
43.
"The Uchiha Chamber of Commerce in the city?"
Uchiha Itachi frowned, looking at his father's angry look, and couldn't help but ask: "Is there a problem with the order of his chamber of commerce? Should we go check it out?"
Uchiha Itachi became interested when he thought about the problems in Uchiha Bancheng’s Chamber of Commerce.
Let him dare to recruit members of the Guard Department to do business. Let's see how we deal with him this time and make them completely submit to the family.
"Young Clan Leader, you're not going to enforce the law, you're going to borrow money!" Dark Eyes also walked over and said to Uchiha Itachi, his tone numb.
"Borrow money? Does our family have no money?" Uchiha Itachi frowned, but looking at his father's somewhat annoyed expression, he said, "Dad, we don't need to go find a merchant to borrow money. How much money do you need? I have a salary of 20,000 taels now, and I can let you use it first!"
He now earns 20,000 taels a month, and if he goes out on missions he will receive rewards, so he has no shortage of money!
Seeing that his father actually disregarded his face and went to borrow money from Uchiha Bancheng, this was simply going against the will of Tiangang, the clan leader borrowing money from his clan members.
"Your 20,000 ryo?" Fugaku looked at his innocent son, knowing that he was well-intentioned, so he did not blame him. He just shook his head helplessly: "Your amount is too little. Now the Security Department needs at least 1.5 million ryo to get through this difficult time!"
One million and five hundred thousand taels?
When Uchiha Itachi heard that so much money was needed, the corners of his mouth twitched!
To get this much money, he would have to work for at least five years without eating or drinking. But why is the Security Department so short of money?
He wanted to continue asking, but his father and the people of the same clan all had lifeless expressions and did not continue talking. Instead, he followed his father to the Chamber of Commerce in Uchiha Bancheng.
In the Chamber of Commerce.
"Dad, believe it or not, Uchiha Fugaku will come to borrow money from us soon. He's not just borrowing, he's asking for it." Xuan Yu looked at his father, who was still stuffing food into his mouth. With the evolution of the Sharingan, he felt that the Sharingan's thirst for energy was even higher!
Food energy, and chakra!
It's simply not enough to feed.
The little girl Huayu next to him was clearing the dishes for Xuan Yu. He ate so fast that there was not enough space on one table.
"No way, Uchiha Fugaku is the head of the clan after all. He knows I won't give him money, so he won't ask for it, right?" Uchiha Bancheng also took a chicken leg at this time, eating it slowly, and seemed to be in deep thought.
Xuan Yu was speechless when he saw his naive father.
My father is good at business, but he lacks consideration in politics. Maybe he doesn't think human nature is that bad.
"Dad, you don't understand!" After finishing the last chicken leg in a hurry, Xuan Yu burped and said slowly, "I heard recently that Konoha only gives 500,000 taels to the Uchiha Guard every month, and in the past few days, the Third Generation has deducted more than 300,000 taels for various reasons. The remaining money has to be paid back to those gangsters. It can be said that the Uchiha Guard can't pay any wages this month!"
hiss~~
Uchiha Banjo took a deep breath when he heard this.
This?
He has been busy expanding his business recently and has not paid attention to things happening in the village.
Hearing this now, he couldn't help but say in admiration: "Lord Hokage is really capable. He made the Uchiha family work hard for Konoha and didn't even pay them. He's even more deceiving than a big businessman like me!"
At the very least, Uchiha Bancheng had never owed any of his subordinates a penny of salary.
"So you said that the remaining people in the Guard Department have no salary, which means they have no source of income!" Xuan Yu nodded, and then continued: "Do you think Fugaku is going to ask the third generation for salary, or is he coming to you for money?"
"Come find me!" Uchiha Bancheng pointed at himself like a sucker, and then seemed to have figured something out and said angrily: "Do you think I, Uchiha Bancheng, am easy to bully? You don't dare to ask the third generation who cheated them for money, but come to me, the sucker?"
"Congratulations, Dad, you got it right!" Xuan Yu nodded.
"Then what should we do?" Uchiha Bancheng was also speechless. Should he give the money or not?
"No, not a cent!" Xuan Yu shook his head decisively: "Others are taking advantage of us, we can't also take advantage of ourselves and not give them a cent!"
"Yes, no!" Uchiha Bancheng also nodded.
Just as the father and son made up their minds, Uchiha Xia walked in, his face a little ugly: "Boss, the chief of the Fugaku clan is here with his clan members!"
Uchiha Xia also knew that Fugaku had asked someone to borrow money, but was rejected by Uchiha Bancheng. But now Fugaku came with murderous intent, and it was obvious that he had bad intentions.
"Already here?" Uchiha Bancheng didn't expect Uchiha Pingfugaku to come so quickly, so he stood up and said to Xuanyu: "Son, come with me to welcome the clan leader!"
After all, Fugaku is now the head of the Uchiha clan, so he naturally has to observe the proper etiquette.
"Why are you here in my Chamber of Commerce, Chief? Please come in!" Uchiha Banjo talked to Fugaku with a smile, but Fugaku did not look happy at all.
As Uchiha Half City moved, the Uchiha clan members who were originally resting in the Chamber of Commerce also came out to greet them, there were as many as sixty or seventy of them.
They had just joined the Chamber of Commerce and had no escort missions assigned to them. They just chatted, drank tea, and practiced ninjutsu during their breaks every day. They had become plump and looked many times better than before.
in contrast.
Except for the ruddy-faced Uchiha Itachi, all the ninjas brought by Uchiha Fugaku had a look of deep fatigue on their faces. They were physically and mentally exhausted, their faces were pale and thin, and they had dark circles under their eyes.
When the dozen or so people who remained in the guard department saw that each of their former colleagues had rosy faces and smug smiles, they all secretly regretted why they didn't follow them to join Uchiha Bancheng.
The Uchiha members of the Chamber of Commerce saw acquaintances and some came forward to greet them: "Red Prisoner, have you lost weight recently? How come you haven't lost so much weight? Hmm, your face has become paler, but the makeup under your eyes is a little thick!"
The person opposite me was a female ninja. I couldn't tell if what she said just now was a joke or a genuine reminiscence.
Amid the noise, Uchiha Taira Fugaku, along with Itachi and a few loyal men, followed Uchiha Banjo into the inner room!
Uchiha Xia and the other four captains who had not yet gone on a mission looked at each other and followed in.
They sat down one after another.
Uchiha Fugaku got straight to the point and said, "Bancheng, I think you know why I came to your Chamber of Commerce. Now the family is in urgent need of money. Please give me one million taels first!"
Uchiha Fugaku asked for two million ryo this time, and he had lowered his attitude a little.
"No!" Uchiha Bancheng shook his head decisively. It was impossible to lend him even a penny!
Fugaku looked at Uchiha Hanjo's decisive refusal. He frowned and was a little unhappy, but he still endured it and gave in again: "Then 500,000 ryo!"
"No!" Uchiha Bancheng shook his head decisively again: "Patriarch, let alone 500,000 taels, I can't even take out one tael now, you should think of other ways!"
Wow!
As soon as these words were spoken, Uchiha Fugaku and the people who followed Fugaku's faces froze and became extremely ugly.
Uchiha Itachi's eyebrows just stood up as he stared at Uchiha Fugaku.
The wrong name has been corrected!
(End of this chapter)
Chapter 44: Kill Itachi while he's still young? Fugaku compromises!
"Uchiha Banjo, now that our family is in trouble, we ask you to contribute something to the family, but you directly refuse?"
Uchiha Itachi looked at Uchiha Banjo and questioned him. Although his eyebrows were erect, his face still did not show much expression: "As a member of the Uchiha clan, you don't want to contribute to the family, but want to drag the family down. You are simply a disgrace to the Uchiha clan!"
When asking questions,
The tear marks on both sides of the nose became deeper.
but,
Uchiha Itachi spoke like this to his father, and Uchiha Fugaku next to him did not stop him. Instead, there was a hint of satisfaction in his eyes.
Itachi is worthy of being his son. He said everything he didn't want to say. For the sake of the family, Uchiha Banjo actually wanted to refuse to help the family.
You know, the reason why the Uchiha Half City Chamber of Commerce has flourished is due to the status of the Uchiha family. Otherwise, it would have been divided up by other families long ago.
"Uchiha Itachi, what do you mean by burdening the family?" Xuan Yu stepped forward and looked at Uchiha Itachi. Under the stunned gaze of everyone, he continued, "Not only did we take in the Uchiha clan members when the family was in danger, my father is now spending a lot of money to build a hospital to accept patients from the family and Konoha. Everything we do is for the family!"
Speaking of this,
Xuan Yu watched Uchiha Itachi take a few steps forward, with anger on his young face: "You come up and ask for money, what? Only by giving money to the family can it be considered a contribution to the family? If so, my father's contribution in the past few years was much higher than that of the clan leader. I wonder how much money you have donated to the family?"
Xuan Yu's words were powerful and each of them hit the key point.
Especially the last point, how much money did my father donate to the family?
"You are being unreasonable. Every member of the clan has his own accusations!" Itachi was a little annoyed by Xuanyu's repeated questioning: "The clan leader has his own things to do. Just like if you donate money to the clan, the clan will protect you!"
"The family protects us?" Xuan Yu laughed when he heard this. Looking at Uchiha Itachi's righteous expression, he continued, "We donate so much money to the family every year, but you have always regarded us as lowly and lowly businessmen. How can you protect us? Ridiculous."
Xuan Yu had no doubt that if the Chamber of Commerce had encountered problems in the past few years, Uchiha Fugaku would definitely not help.
"You..." Uchiha Itachi was a little speechless after Xuan Yu's repeated questioning, but he still grasped the key point: "Let's not talk about other things first. The Uchiha Guard Department is the foundation of our Uchiha, but you actually recruited them into your Chamber of Commerce. Is this ruining the future of Uchiha?"
He wants to seize this incident and make Uchiha Bancheng the sinner of the family. No, Uchiha Bancheng is the sinner of the Uchiha family.
"If the Chamber of Commerce hadn't recruited these clansmen, the Uchiha wouldn't have fallen into this situation!" Uchiha Itachi became angrier and angrier as he thought about it. Looking at Lu, who was younger than him, standing in front of him, his confidence returned as he spoke: "This is all your fault. It's not good for a merchant to be involved in too many things!"
In Uchiha Itachi's heart, the village and family are the most important, but Uchiha Banjo obviously broke the rules.
"Haha. Our fault?" Xuan Yu laughed, as if he was being sarcastic: "Now the guards have no salary, is it wrong for my father to hire them? If this is wrong, then the people who advocate giving up half of the guards are the ones who betrayed the family!"
He was not afraid at all in the face of Itachi's questioning.
Even the following words were obviously another mockery of Uchiha Fugaku, mocking him for giving up half of the Uchiha Guard.
Humph, Uchiha Itachi slandered his own father like this, it is rude not to reciprocate. Since he dares to slander his own father, don't blame him for being rude.
"Boy...the decision to give up half of the guard department was made after a clan meeting!" Uchiha Fugaku was obviously furious when he heard Xuan Yu's next words.
"The whole family? That's not necessarily true. There are so many dissenting voices in the family, but you didn't listen!" Xuan Yu looked at Fugaku's action of beating someone and took two steps back, but he did not stop talking.
"You dare to speak to me like that? You are so rude. Today I will teach you a lesson on behalf of your father!" Uchiha Fugaku was speechless. He was about to step forward and beat Xuan Yu when he couldn't get the argument.
Xuan Yu, however, was quick to hide behind his father.
Uchiha Banjo's face darkened at this time, and he looked at Uchiha Fugaku: "Clan leader, I'm not dead yet, so I won't bother you to teach my son a lesson for me!"
Even when he was present, Uchiha Fugaku wanted to deal with his own son, which was not giving him face.
As soon as Uchiha Bancheng stood out, the dozens of ninjas behind him also followed Uchiha Bancheng and stared at Uchiha Fugaku.
Their behavior was very clear. As long as Uchiha Fugaku dared to take action, they would stop him.
They also know who gave him his current life.
If the clan leader wants to destroy their current life, then he is her and his enemy. No matter whether he is the clan leader or not, he cannot take action against Uchiha Bancheng.
"Do you want to take action?" Itachi took a step forward, looking directly at the dozens of Uchiha fellows behind Uchiha Bancheng, with fierce murderous intent in his eyes.
in fact,
He had long been annoyed with those who betrayed the Uchiha clan, and if possible, he would teach them a lesson.
"Want to take action?"
