Chapter 62

Poof~

The old Hyuga clan leader sprayed tea all over Hiashi's face!

Sure enough, we can't hold too much hope.

"Hiashi, there are no eternal enemies in this world, only eternal interests."

This time, the old Hyuga clan leader did not choose to scold harshly. He knew that scolding would not make him wise, but would only make him angry to death.

"Yes, father."

The soup slid down Hiashi's face, letting the water droplets flow down his cheeks, lowering his head and waiting for a scolding.

Or, it's already a mess!

"As the head of a clan, you should take a long-term view," said the old Hyuga clan leader, with a much more mature voice. "You, the head of the Hyuga clan, beating someone on the street is different from an ordinary person beating someone on the street in the eyes of others."

Hyuga Hiashi nodded, thinking that the old clan leader was right, and promised: "As the head of the Hyuga clan, I will definitely not do such a thing that is beneath my dignity."

Ahem~

The old Hyuga clan leader suppressed his anger and patiently explained to him: "The former will be maliciously speculated and infinitely magnified by others, while the latter will only be regarded as a minor fight. Don't you understand?"

If he still doesn't understand after being told so clearly, he will immediately go down and kowtow to his ancestors to apologize.

"Father is right, I understand."

It doesn't matter whether he understands or not, but if he says he doesn't understand, I'm afraid the old clan leader will scold him.

"The Uchiha are coming soon, ask someone to welcome them in."

Outside the Hyuga mansion.

The Uchiha debt collection team, led by Uchiha Makoto, beat drums and shouted.

At first, the Uchiha people felt a little ashamed, but after going through the Hokage Building to collect debts, they became more and more skilled.

It turns out that asking for money is such a simple thing.

They, the Uchiha, are now the poorest clan in the village.

Although they look bright and beautiful, in fact, their clan does not have many industries, or in other words, all the glorious assets in the past are in the hands of Konoha.

In addition to a small amount of compensation given to them every year, most of the money is earned by taking on noble tasks based on their looks.

For the nobles, they prefer to hire beautiful Uchiha, after all, they are capable and pleasing to the eye, and they are more face-saving than some big men who pick their feet.

After all, the fundamental reason why they did not keep their assets is that they are too thin-skinned, embarrassed to refuse, and want to suppress others!

The door of Hyuga slowly opened, and Hyuga Hizashi was not bad at all in dealing with people. He did not let people beat drums outside, but invited them to the mansion.

"Master Zhen, everyone from Uchiha, please follow me."

Hyuga Hizashi asked people to entertain them as distinguished guests, neither appearing too enthusiastic nor impolite.

"Master Zhen, my father and the clan leader ask you to go to the inner room, and sincerely apologize to you for what happened before." Hyuga Hizashi said, thinking about what to do if Uchiha Zhen refused.

His father told him to say so, but he didn't tell him what to say if he refused!

"Since the old clan leader and the clan leader are so sincere, I can't refuse," Uchiha Zhen told Uchiha Yan: "You wait for me here."

The old Hyuga clan leader wanted to see him alone, and this way would not make people suspicious and would not give people a handle. He is old and smart.

"Father, clan leader!"

Hyuga Hizashi took Uchiha Zhen to the inner room and left, and closed the door for them.

The father and son knelt on the tatami, one exuding majesty, and the other staring at him with a tense body.

"Old Patriarch, Patriarch Hiashi, time is running out, tell me what you want to say as soon as possible!"

Uchiha Makoto ignored the old Hyuga Patriarch's scrutiny and went straight to the point.

He must have gone to great lengths to meet with me alone for something other than shutting me up.

"You are young and promising, it would be great if you were from Hyuga."

The old Hyuga Patriarch sighed and took out two scrolls.

"This is three hundred million," one of the scrolls was already placed in front of Uchiha Makoto, "These thirty million are my sincerity as an old man."

"Old Patriarch, is the solution to Huitian worth thirty million and a bunch of Hyuga gossip?" Uchiha Makoto was not polite and picked up one of the scrolls to look at it.

"Of course not, this is just my sincerity. I was not good at educating my son before," the old Hyuga clan leader glanced at Hiashi who was shaking with anger, "You can see that I am old and my son cannot take on the responsibility of the clan. This 30 million is just to make a good relationship with Uchiha."

"Old clan leader, I am Uchiha!"

Uchiha Zhen thought it was interesting that the old Hyuga clan leader actually wanted him, an Uchiha, to protect Hyuga.

"Haha, where are there eternal enemies in this world? What can we get by fighting for a name?"

Hyuga OldThe clan leader continued, "If you think we can cooperate, I am willing to give the three mines of Hyuga at the border of the Land of Fields and the Land of Fire to Uchiha, no, you, Uchiha Makoto, as a reward."

Three mines!

As expected of Hyuga, a rich family!

I'm afraid even the Hokage doesn't know this!

"The old clan leader is right, there are no eternal enemies. I think that clan leader Hiashi is honest and simple, and it's not impossible to be a good friend!"

Uchiha Makoto's face was full of smiles. Three mines would allow him to have a more luxurious laboratory than Orochimaru, with more advanced experimental equipment. Even if he doesn't do the mission, he and his parents can live a good life with just the three mines.

Hyuga Hiashi knelt on the side and endured it, but his clenched fists betrayed his impulse to hammer Uchiha Makoto to death at this time.

"Hahaha, with you, the Uchiha clan will be strong. If you were from Hyuga, I would do my best to cultivate you."

The old Hyuga clan leader glared at Hiashi with a warning, and praised Uchiha Makoto generously. He should be rebellious at his age, but he was more mature than his age.

As long as he promised not to oppose Hyuga, under his plan, the Hyuga clan would not be at risk of extermination in the future.

"Old Patriarch, you are joking," Uchiha Zhen stared at the old Hyuga Patriarch with a fake smile and asked, "How do you know that I can definitely protect Hyuga? I am an Uchiha."

"You don't look like an Uchiha at all," the old Hyuga Patriarch pondered for a moment and continued, "I have never misjudged anyone. The achievements you can achieve in the future are not something that a clan or a country can control. I don't need you to make plans for Hyuga. I just hope that you can protect Hyuga when it encounters danger in the future."

Uchiha Zhen raised his mouth and couldn't help but admire him in his heart. For the rise and fall of the clan, he even planned what happened after his death, even if it was a risky future. The old Hyuga Patriarch was a qualified and great patriarch.

"Not enough, what I need is not the sincerity of the old patriarch, but the sincerity of the entire Hyuga."
