Chapter 278: No precedent? Then create a precedent!

“You brat!!”

Tsunade laughed angrily and raised her hand as if to strike, but Yan dodged with a smile and picked up the scroll:

"It was just a joke, why are you so angry and want to hit someone?"

"let me see."

"Rich iron ore?"

"Just organize some people to dig it up."

Don’t think that the Fire Kingdom only has forests. In fact, the Fire Kingdom has quite a lot of mineral resources.

There are quite a few mineral resources around Konoha, the most typical of which is Konoha Prison.

The purpose of building Konoha Prison was to allow prisoners to mine for free.

The ore mined from the prison every year can be considered a major contributor to Konoha's economy.

"I want to mine, but mining requires a lot of manpower, and the current financial situation..."

Tsunade herself was too embarrassed to continue.

"Nothing at all?"

Yan knew that the village's finances were tight, but he didn't expect it to be so dire that there was nothing left.

"It's not that exaggerated, but it's not much better either. The main reason is that the previous pit was too big."

Tsunade's face turned even redder, and she didn't know if it was because she drank too much or because she was embarrassed.

"What a pity! If you were as good at magnetic escape as Luo Sha, would you still have to worry about these things?"

This is what Yan admires most about the Sand Village. Except for the first Kazekage, all the others are experts in mining.

Especially the third and fourth generations, who used mining to supplement the village economy, which shows how awesome magnetic mining is.

You kid deserve to be punished again, right?

Tsunade clenched her fists and glared at him with gritted teeth.

Mining is very profitable, but it also requires a huge investment in the early stages. Even if you send ninjas to mine, it is still a considerable expense.

The most important thing is that the village really has no money.

Iron ore is not a gold or silver mine. You can't just dig it out and smelt it to make a lot of money.

This thing needs to be processed after it is dug out.

Glancing at the gloomy Tsunade, Yan chuckled and said:

"Look at it more positively and don't look so sad. Think about it, there is a new iron mine near the village. Once all the ore is dug out, the amount purchased from outside will be greatly reduced, which can be regarded as an indirect reduction in fiscal expenditure."

"Of course I know."

Tsunade rolled her eyes at Yan and said lightly:

"But the problem is that I can't dig out the minerals just by talking. Otherwise, why would I be worried?"

I would like to call you, Tsunade, the most miserable Hokage in history!

There are not many Hokage who can achieve this level. Look at other Hokage. Although they are busy, at least they are not like Tsunade, who pulls out a lot of hair every day for a little money.

"But what you said makes sense. It's true that you can dig out ore just by moving your mouth."

"What do you mean?"

Tsunade felt that Yan was implying something to her. What did it mean that one could dig out ore just by moving their mouths?

Please explain to me what this sentence means.

“How about outsourcing?”

Yan thinks outsourcing is the most worry-free way.

You don’t have to worry about anything, just assign someone to supervise and wait for the revenue to be divided. There is no need for any upfront investment.

But there has never been a precedent for this kind of thing in Konoha.

"You mean to build it the same as the commercial district?"

Tsunade got to the point straight away. Even though she had been drinking, at least her brain wasn't frozen.

Yan's idea was very simple. Since the village's finances were tight and he couldn't invest so much money, why not bring in the Shinobi families in the village?

They invest the money and divide the profits according to proportion. The village sends someone to supervise and all they have to do is collect the money.

If there is no precedent, then break the rules and create a precedent!

Anyway, the ownership belongs to the village. The participating ninja families are just investing money in mining, which is a disguised investment, not spending money to buy the minerals.

"Almost the same, but with a big difference. We can't rush this matter. Let's wait until the commercial area is built. Some things can't be rushed."

If you want to try everything you see, you will end up getting hurt if you take too big a step.

At present, Konoha just needs to develop steadily and move forward step by step.

"Okay, that's it, we'll talk later."

Tsunade also knows that many things need to be done slowly and not in big steps.

The day after Yan returned to the village with the transport troops, the Hokage's office announced the truth about Uchiha Obito and the Nine-Tails Night.

"Damn it, I didn't expect Uchiha Obito to be such a person. Why would he want revenge on the village?"

"He should go and take revenge on the Mist Village."

"We seem to have misunderstood Uchiha..."

“Fortunately, the truth has come out. Although the Uchiha are innocent, they are also responsible.

After all, Uchiha Obito is from their family."

"What nonsense are you talking about? Are we going to blame the Uchiha for what the rebel ninja did?

So, should the Shimura clan be brought to trial for what Shimura Danzo did?"

"Orochimaru became a traitor and joined the Akatsuki organization. Do you also want the Sandaime-sama to come out and confess his guilt?"

As soon as the truth came out, all kinds of opinions began to spread throughout Konoha. Some people thought that Uchiha was innocent, while others thought that Uchiha deserved it because Obito was an Uchiha.

Many people have argued about this.

Some people even brought up Danzo and the Third Hokage, leaving speechless those who insisted that the Uchiha were responsible.

As the truth is revealed, the villagers' bad impression of the Uchiha people will change to a certain extent. Even if they are not treated equally, at least the targeting will be reduced a lot.

If the Uchiha wanted to gain a good impression from the villagers, they had to withdraw from the police department and return it to the village.

As long as the Uchiha still controls the police department, don't even think about gaining the favor of the villagers.

It was almost inevitable.

However, it was impossible for the Uchiha to withdraw from the police department, and Yan was very clear about this, so he never dreamed of making the people in the village treat the Uchiha better.

At most, it would reduce everyone's hostility so that the Uchiha wouldn't be so excluded.

As I said before, your own strength is the root of everything.

If you are weak, no matter how good the impression you make on the villagers is, it will be useless. Strength and inheritance are the foundation of a ninja family.

The situation of the Uchiha clan improved, but the opposite was true for the Sarutobi clan.

The Third Hokage has not returned yet, and the entire Sarutobi clan is shrouded in gloom.

Yan was right. The Sarutobi clan, who had been accustomed to high welfare and high treatment, were extremely dissatisfied with their current treatment, but they just hadn't exploded in the short term.

With the presence of the Third Hokage, the situation can be stabilized.

As hundreds of elite members of the family sacrificed their lives in Rain Village, the conflicts within the family became apparent.

The loss of hundreds of elite soldiers is already a serious blow.

Although the Third Hokage has not returned yet, the joint action of the five major ninja villages to conquer the Rain Village and the Akatsuki organization has ended.

Now that the action is over, isn't it time to talk about pensions and subsidies?

Due to the growing resentment among the clan members, the person in charge of the Sarutobi clan had no choice but to bite the bullet and go to the Hokage's office to question Tsunade.

Tsunade, who originally didn't want to worry about this, suddenly got angry and angrily slammed the table and cursed:

"What do you Sarutobi clan want to do?

Even the village's pension payment can be asked in the Hokage's office. Do you want me to give up my seat and let you sit here?"
