The road that had just been widened by the ninjas in the village using earth escape ninjutsu was also muddy.

Only Sarutobi Sasuke looked at the trees in front of him with a strange look.

That's right, when we left the village, there was no such row of trees.

There is no doubt that Senju Hashirama did all of this!

Sarutobi Sasuke couldn't help but lower his head and looked at the ground beneath his feet.

It is truly a god-like power that makes people awe-inspiring!

156 This village is quite big!

"incredible!"

The ground behind him was still in a mess.

But after picking up my feet and taking a step forward, everything became completely different.

Neat and uniform houses still stood in front of the flat land.

Although many houses still look very simple, they have a grand, clean and tidy aesthetic.

Compared to the messy appearance of the land behind them just after the earthquake, the entire Konoha Village seemed like a paradise.

“Oh my God, this, here, here is so good!”

Looking at the village that was still intact after the earthquake, many businessmen's eyes were shining!

Businessman Capone, who was following Sarutobi Sasuke, had even more excitement shining in his eyes.

What other businessmen see is that Konoha Village represents the safety that can be guaranteed in the face of natural and man-made disasters.

What he saw was an extremely strong business opportunity!

What a pity. From Sarutobi Sasuke's strong and firm voice just now, we can see the attitude of Konoha Village on some things.

Otherwise, he would go back and publicize the safety of Konoha Village to the entire ninja world, attracting the most powerful and wealthy people in the entire ninja world to come and live there.

Then he helped Konoha Village recruit wealthy businessmen who were particularly concerned about safety. With just a little money from the powerful, he could multiply his wealth many times.

Before entering Konoha Village, Capone glanced at the village in front of him and the ninja figure that was already vaguely visible at the entrance of the village.

He finally grabbed Sarutobi Sasuke and whispered.

"Lord Sasuke, this time, I have found a better way!"

Capone could tell that Sasuke Sarutobi wanted more just like him.

But of the two of them, one wants more wealth, and the other wants to stand taller in this village!

Hearing Capone's words whispered by his side, Sarutobi Sasuke glanced at this guy meaningfully.

Compared with other businessmen, this guy named Capone has a ruthless vision and dares to take risks. He is a man who does big things!

If he could learn ninjutsu, he should be able to become an excellent ninja!

"I understand. I will go to the Hokage Building to mention it. When the time comes, I will let you do it!"

Sarutobi Sasuke returned to the village with the surprised businessmen and the relieved ninjas.

As the first team to rush back from outside and bring back a large amount of supplies, they gained the attention of the Hokage Building.

In the Hokage's office, Senju Hashirama, Uchiha Madara, Senju Tobirama, and Uchiha Izumi are all here to receive the returning Sarutobi Sasuke.

"You did a great job, Sasuke!"

Senju Hashirama looked at this long list of supplies and smiled at the corners of his eyes.

If so many things are transported back to the village, and they can be sold in the village at normal goods prices, then everyone in the village will live a much richer life.

"That's what I should do."

Facing Senju Hashirama's praise, Sarutobi Sasuke seemed very humble. At the same time, he also lost no time in telling another situation.

“Hashirama-sama, Madara-sama.

Although we successfully brought back a large amount of supplies this time, on the way back, those who were supposed to follow me to settle here were frightened.

I'm worried that after they go back, they will also make the outside world have a deeper impression of our Konoha Village as a disaster-prone place.

Therefore, I feel that now we should take a step forward and let the merchants who have truly seen that the village can still maintain its strength and true face intact in such natural and man-made disasters can spread the news.

At the same time, bring as many people as possible who yearn for life in our Konoha Village to the village to expand the population of the village. "

Sarutobi Sasuke spoke for a while, then stopped. He looked at Senju Hashirama's suddenly enlightened look, then looked at the calm faces of Uchiha Madara, Senju Tobirama, and Uchiha Izuna, and lowered his eyes. eye.

If you don't look at the strength, if you only look at the superficial performance, Senju Hashirama is indeed the most unsuitable man among the four to become Hokage.

However, as the god of ninja and the leader of the Senju clan, how could Senju Hashirama really be a novice who doesn't understand anything?

Sarutobi Sasuke didn't think so. He still felt that Senju Hashirama hid his thoughts under his simple and honest appearance, which made people couldn't help but get close to him, and was charming.

Moreover, if you add strength...

Sarutobi Sasuke couldn't help but think of the row of lush trees standing proudly on the dividing line where disaster stopped.

"Sasuke, since you said that, you must have figured out a way.

Well, let me leave this matter to you.

Moreover, the diplomacy of the village will be left to you in the future. If there is any shortage of people, you can recruit them yourself and then report them.

We will give approval as appropriate and provide financial support based on the situation. "

"I understand."

Tobirama spoke, and Sarutobi Sasuke took over the job without being humble or condescending, with a smile on his lips.

He finally began to be accepted by the core of power in Konoha Village.

From today on, there will be an inch of space for him, Sarutobi Sasuke, on the stage of this village.

Sasuke Sarutobi is about to start his own performance.

"Also, there is a businessman named Capone. When I encountered this disaster, he helped me and stabilized the team. He can also help us from all over the ninja world and lead people who are willing to come to Konoha to immigrate. To the village.”

"I understand, I will give him a subsidy, but you must let him know the appropriateness, do you understand?"

With Tobirama's permission, Sarutobi Sasuke became more confident.

After leaving the Hokage's office, he quickly found Capone in high spirits and went to discuss things.

In the Hokage's office, ninjas were soon called to inquire about information about the businessman Capone.

"It seems like this guy is not a good guy."

Senju Hashirama frowned a little when he saw the history of Capone's fortune and his experience of growing stronger step by step.

"It doesn't matter now, Sarutobi Sasuke can restrain him, and if he dares to use our name of Konoha Village to cause trouble outside, we will never spare him.

Moreover, a businessman who can start a business in troubled times and gradually grow bigger can have several good things.

Brother, don’t force yourself too much.

At least this Capone is really capable. "

Tobirama persuaded his eldest brother Hashirama, and then looked at the portrait of Capone's appearance brought by his ninjas, and for a moment, he felt a strange feeling.

This guy looks a bit like a human being.

Soon, Sarutobi Sasuke told Capone, who was waiting anxiously in the village, the permission he had received from the Hokage's office.

"How's it going, Sasuke-sama, is there any good news?"

“The village has agreed with your idea, and if you can safely bring people who want to live in the village from outside, the village will give you subsidies.

Moreover, while you are doing business, when the village accepts your escort and protection entrustment, it will give you a good discount!

When you carry out business operations in our Konoha Village, we will also give you tax benefits..."

Hearing this, Capone's eyes suddenly widened.

He looked at Sasuke Sarutobi in front of him, and then at the Hokage Building over there, and sweat began to form on his head.

"Sasuke-sama, is what you said true? Can taxes be collected in Konoha Village?"

"Of course, when Konoha Village was founded, we already had the consent of the daimyo. You paid the tax with us, and with the certificate, you don't have to pay it with the daimyo!"

Capone swallowed. As a businessman, he keenly felt something was wrong.

Konoha Village can actually collect its own taxes?

It, isn't it already equivalent to an independent country in the Country of Fire, a country within a country, a brand new place belonging to ninjas!

Oh my god, this Konoha Village has a big picture!

It's done!

"I understand!"

Soon, Capone took the merchants and set off with some things produced in Konoha Village to sell them in other places.

In Konoha Village, there are strict regulations that prohibit merchants from hoarding or making a fortune.

Therefore, after this disaster that did not affect Konoha Village, the prices of food and various daily necessities remained stable.

But outside, it's different.

Not only the merchants like them, but also the daimyo and nobles personally went to hell.

When many places in the Fire Country were affected by this horrific earthquake, they continued to raise the prices of food and other supplies, making a lot of money.

Suddenly, the Fire Nation, which had just calmed down in the troubled times for less than a year, suddenly became filled with resentment and complaints.

But how could the nobles and nobles of the Fire Country care about the life and death of a group of common people?

They only care about whether they can squeeze out the last bit of flesh and blood and bone marrow from ordinary people today!

They use usury to induce poor people to take away their land, wives and children when they cannot afford the money.

At this time, Cardo and a small group of merchants were running around in the disaster-stricken areas of the Country of Fire.

In a village, Capone was followed by the ninja sent to him by Sarutobi Sasuke. He frowned and walked into this extremely poor village.

There was a cry in front, and the wandering warrior who followed the noble master's servant was holding a knife and looking at the poor villagers begging for him with bloodthirsty eyes.

"You still haven't paid back the money, right? Then I'll just use your wife and children to pay off the debt!"

"No, don't, please!"

brush!

Seeing that this guy still wanted to stand in front of him, the wandering warrior felt that he had an excuse, so he waved the knife in his hand and slashed at the person in front of him.

157 Routines, all routines

clang!

A kunai blocked the direction in which the dangerous katana fell.

Sonorous sparks flew everywhere, but the kunai, which seemed much shorter than the katana, never let it fall again.

The ninja of the Sarutobi clan stood in front of ordinary people who had a look of despair on their faces for that moment. The arm that blocked the katana was steady and strong.

"Who are you?"

"Ninja! Don't get in our way!"

Facing the threat from the wandering samurai, under Capone's instructions, the ninjas of the Sarutobi clan defeated them easily with three strikes.

"roll!"

"Just wait for me, we will be back soon!"

Seeing these lawless guys running away, the poor villagers who survived the disaster lowered their heads and quickly thanked Capone and the ninjas of the Sarutobi clan.

"Thank you, thank you, sir, thank you, Lord Ninja."

"You're welcome, I just can't stand their behavior.

Your life is already so difficult due to natural disasters, but I didn't expect that they are still exploiting you like this! "

A few tears easily squeezed out of Capone's eyes.
