Chapter 237: A man with money is a man, a man without money is a man

You want to get rid of me with 50 million?

Bah, you think you can get rid of Jingyi with just 50 million?

How much you despise him.

The Third Hokage suddenly remembered that the puppet belonged to Jingyi, and the restrictions also fell on Jingyi, so the compensation must also be Jingyi's.

This is a lot of money.

It's not a pleasant feeling to have a large sum of money but not get even a penny of it.

Even though I was clearly in pain, I had to pretend that I didn't care.

"Three hundred million!! Three hundred million for each village!! This is the bottom line. If you are not willing to pay this compensation, then there is no point in discussing this matter."

The Third Hokage stood up and left.

Jingyi needed him to delay for a while, so he pretended to be angry and left.

The departure of the Third Hokage meant that the Five Kage Council had once again been suspended.

"What a greedy old thing!!"

After the Third Hokage left, Ohnoki cursed angrily. Although the Third Hokage was much younger than him, Ohnoki still liked to use the word "old thing" to curse the other party.

"Although it's a bit greedy, at least it's good news for us, isn't it?"

The Third Raikage did not seem angry, but instead smiled.

Because the Third Hokage started bargaining with them, it meant that the strict prohibition of Konoha from using puppets on the battlefield or launching sneak attacks on the village could be negotiated.

It's just a matter of how much compensation you want.

Many times, problems that can be solved with money are not problems.

"Everyone, be prepared. Five hundred million ryo and three hundred million ryo are impossible, but Konoha can't just give away tens of millions of ryo."

“The village can’t afford that much money.”

The Third Kazekage took the opportunity to speak.

As the saying goes, a man with money makes a man, but a man without money is difficult. Even the leader of the Sand Village, the Third Kazekage, was troubled by money.

"Kazekage, it was your village that started this whole thing, but after Konoha gave in, you said you had no money? Don't you want us to pay for you?"

Oonoki's eyes began to spit fire as he looked at the Third Kazekage.

If I had known, I would not have participated in this crappy Five Kage Summit.

Now, I am in a state of neither advancement nor advancement.

Some things are just like this. If you don’t know, it doesn’t matter. But after you know, you will inevitably start to worry.

Ohnoki didn't dare to just walk away arrogantly. He himself couldn't guarantee whether the Iwagakure would not have a conflict with Konoha one day in the future. Once these puppets appeared on the battlefield or fell into the Iwagakure, the consequences would be unimaginable.

But he was unwilling to pay.

So, Ōnoki could only vent his anger on the Third Kazekage.

The Third Kazekage fell silent.

Money.

The Third Raikage smiled with glee and didn't say anything. They could discuss the conditions together, but as for compensation, they had to figure it out themselves.

No one will be stupid enough to pay the bill for you.

In short, if you want to deal with Konoha, you will need a large sum of money. Don't negotiate the conditions and then say you can't come up with the money, because then you will be the one who will be embarrassed.

After returning to his residence, the Third Hokage found Shizuichi.

"Strictly prohibit puppet sneak attacks and the use of puppets on the battlefield, and then give us Konoha, no, give you sufficient compensation, but the compensation money will probably not be as much as you want."

Five hundred million?

You may have lost your mind.

Tens of millions of taels are too little, but hundreds of millions are almost impossible.

If you insist on asking for this price, the final result will be a breakdown in the negotiations.

The Third Hokage didn't want to break up the talks.

The consequence of the breakdown of the negotiations is that other villages will support the Sand Village, forcing the Sand Village to continue to fight with Konoha and continue to consume Konoha.

This is extremely disadvantageous to Konoha.

"The Third Raikage and the Third Mizukage have begun to threaten me. If we do not agree, they will unite to support the Sand Village and let the Sand Village continue to fight with our village."

Although it was not stated explicitly, the Third Hokage's meaning was very clear.

"They are indeed a group of shameless old guys."

Jingyi cursed, but actually she started laughing in her heart.

Are you rushing to send money?

Why do I feel so happy that I don’t even feel happy when robbing a bank?

"Let's talk. Keep talking. The stalemate will last for three to four days at most, and then there will be a result."

No matter how poor the Sand Village's communications are, two or three days should be enough for them to deliver the message to the Iron Kingdom.

After the Sand Village is attacked and bombed, I'll see if you're still worried and whether you gave too much money.

Pity.

He glanced at the worried Third Hokage.

Jingyi felt deeply sorry.

If Tsunade sat on the Hokage throne, Jingyi would guarantee to give these people who united a lesson and let them know what a dimensionality reduction attack is.

Unfortunately, the Hokage is Sarutobi Hiruzen, and even if the relationship between the two sides will not continue to deteriorate, it is impossible for them to reconcile as before.

There is almost no such thing as reconciliation.

If the Hokage throne is not occupied by one of our own, no matter how many contributions he has made, he is only helping others to gain benefits.

The next day, the Five Kage talks continued. Regarding the amount of compensation, the Five Kages were like old ladies buying groceries, debating and arguing with each other.

In the lounge next door, the five shadow guards were stunned when they heard what they heard.

Who could have thought that the Five Kage Summit would turn out like this.

The crow puppet had already flown to the Sand Village, but broad daylight was not the time to take action, so Jingyi was waiting for the arrival of night.

It was about the same time as the attack on the Sand Village camp.

At around four in the morning, approaching five, the time when people are most sleepy, a small crow puppet flew high into the sky, overlooking the Sand Village in the big valley.

The geographical location of Sand Village is very special. It is surrounded by barren mountains. The place where the village is built is like a big bowl, and all the buildings are built at the bottom of this big bowl.

The unique geographical environment makes the defense of Sand Village easier than other villages. Unless you can fly directly in, it will be very difficult to attack by force.

On the other hand, such a geographical environment would also mean that when the Sand Village was severely attacked, the villagers would be unable to escape even if they wanted to.

The environment will become a natural barrier for the Sand Village, but it will also become a shackle that restricts them.

"Enjoy it."

The crow puppet's two eyes were glowing green, but unfortunately it was flying too high, and it was difficult for a ninja with ordinary perception to notice it, a small black dot in the sky.

Besides, the sky was still pitch black.

Loosening its claws and dropping the scroll, the crow puppet quickly flew away from the Sand Village.
