Chapter 172 The Bright and Magnificent Third Hokage

For any civilization or country, survival is the first element.

As long as survival is guaranteed, most people will be willing to maintain the status quo and cooperate with the rules set by those in power.

Needless to say, there is no need to elaborate on the superficial benefits brought by Yuya's making Konoha Village rich.

An implicit benefit is that each family agrees with Youya's management of the village.

In other words, if someone wants to do something to Yuya, most families in Konoha Village will not agree.

And this is also the main reason why Shimura Danzo is shrinking now.

He couldn't openly confront You Ya, because other families could no longer stand on his side.

Once a chain of interests is formed, anyone who wants to cut off the chain will face a desperate counterattack from every lock on the chain.

not to mention……

It’s not like Yuya didn’t pay dividends to the Shimura family.

Therefore, even within the Shimura family, there is no objection to Yuya's leadership.

Under this premise, if Shimura Danzo wanted to make something happen, it would be impossible not to mention the difficulties.

But Danzo is really eager for the position of Konoha Hokage.

You can understand Danzo's obsession with this position.

It's not that he doesn't know that Yuya is more suitable for this position than him, and it's not that he doesn't know that Youya does much better than him.

But he just had an idea for this position.

Even his mentality is: Even if he is an agent! Even if you only sit there for a day! As long as I can sit in that position... As long as I can sit in that position... Even if it's just for one day, he will be satisfied if he returns it to Youya the next day.

Of course, this is his current mentality. If he really gets his wish one day, he will probably have thoughts such as "sit for one more day, sit for one more day and then give it back to him" and "one more day, just one day!"

You Yake knows very well how people behave when faced with power.

Danzo wants power, but he doesn't dare to really raise a team to resist, so what can he do in the end?

We can only look for Yuya's flaws and take action.

This civil service examination is what Danzo considers to be an opportunity.

After knowing the news, Danzo immediately took out his savings from the Shimura family for many years, and found the teachers responsible for teaching mathematics in the ordinary academy of Konoha Village regardless of the cost, and spent a lot of money to ask them to help the members of the Shimura family make up lessons.

He spent hundreds of millions of taels of money in half a year to open the way, and it was his own property. He could not use the public property of the Shimura family to accomplish this goal, because in that case, success would be the credit of all the members of the Shimura family and his personal ability. will be watered down.

Therefore, he personally funded more than 20 mathematics teachers from the Konoha Ninja School to come to the Shimura family to make up lessons for the members of the Shimura family after the teaching. Each teacher earned millions of taels of income during this period, and they were all smiling. .

Of course, the results are also very impressive.

More than 500 people from the Shimura family broke into the final level.

Danzo Shimura was proud.

In his opinion, at least 300 of these 500 people will be able to make the final list of civil servants.

It would be better if Yuya's secret operation only allowed more than a hundred people to enter. Danzo would have more to say.

However, what Danzo didn't know was that he was at a disadvantage when he chose to use formal methods to make up for his lessons and get on the list for the exam.

Because he plays this game according to Yuya's rules.

How do you feel about playing with others in a game where others make the rules?

Even if you really win, it must be because the person who made the rules deliberately let you win.

And the final list announced by Konoha at the end of 2037 means exactly this.

You say Danzo suffered a loss...

More than a hundred people from his Shimura clan were successfully selected for the final list.

You say he made a profit...

There are also about a hundred people in other families. It seems that this is all done behind closed doors.

But here comes the problem...

When asked what was going on, most of the more than 500 people in the Shimura family were dejected and said that the math test question was too anti-human, and it was impossible to figure out just one question in just one hour.

Shimura Danzo was furious, if you can't push it out, how can others push it out? !

You guys don't have the ability, so why are you talking so hard here? !

After getting angry, Shimura Danzo was in trouble.

It's obvious that Youya is using tricks, but if he makes trouble, how can he make trouble?

Why are you making trouble?

Are you saying this question is too difficult?

But someone has made it, and it still gets full marks, and there are quite a few people.

That the end result was unfair?

Then Yuya throws out the test papers one by one with his backhand, and it will be you, the members of the Shimura family, who will be hit in the face.

Who doesn’t want to save face these days?

If you ask these members if they are willing to publish their test papers, other than the few who answered, they will definitely not be willing.

Moreover……

In the end, there were more than 100 people selected into the 3000 list. These more than 100 people must be on Youya's side.

Shimura Danzo felt a tight breath stuck in his throat, almost to the point of death.

In the end, he could only comfort himself, forget it, at least more than a hundred people were selected...

During the year-end accounting of Konoha, some Konoha officials who were older or even older were forced to submit their resignations, and the people below would take over.

Although many people are unwilling, You Ya will not reason with these people this time.

If you are willing to cooperate, just go and retire.

Unwilling to cooperate...

Haha, you don’t think that I have nothing to do after you have been an official for so many years, do you?

Except for the few old men brought out by Senju Hashirama who are indeed free from any corruption, who else has a clean ass?

After Youya killed a few high-level officials and sent them to prison, the others immediately became intimidated, cooperated in various ways, and were willing to give up their positions to retire early.

After completing this series of personnel transfers, Yuya could be said to have complete control over Konoha at this time.

Now that the internal problems have been solved, it stands to reason that it’s time to look at the outside.

Um……

Let me take a look at how you guys are doing lately. Have you made a little money?

How can I cut leeks if you don’t make any money~

Then Youya was dumbfounded.

What's the matter, bro?

Can’t even understand the homework?

Why is it that the GDP is still at these levels after all these years?

Yes, I have to organize the transportation lines for you.

Looking around, Yuya passed Kirigakure Village first. It’s not that Kirigakure Village is too far away. In fact, in terms of time, Kirigakure Village is the first of the other four great ninja villages closest to Konoha. .

After all, under the premise that there is no railway connection between Konoha and other villages, people still have to carry horses most of the time.

The Kirigakure Village can directly take the waterway and bypass the Uzumaki Country to the port of Konoha, which can be visited in ten days.

Of course, if land roads can be connected to railways, land will be faster than water routes.

But it looks like it will take a few years.

Kirigakure Village When visiting Konoha, logically speaking, you should choose Kirigakure Village recently.

But there’s still that problem.

In the past few years, Wuyin Village's own civil strife has almost destroyed it. Many factories are in dilapidated state and the population has been reduced by nearly half. The industrial foundation of Wuyin Village is not as good as that of several other villages.

Therefore, Yuya directly ruled out Kirigakure Village.

So... should I choose Cloud Hidden Village?

In fact, it’s not impossible.

Yunyin Village also has a large population, and the Kingdom of Thunder is indeed quite large and has many suitable places.

But Yuya thought about it carefully and shook his head to rule it out.

Cost is a big problem. The employment cost of Yunyin Village is much higher than that of Yanyin Village and Sand Hidden Village.

Moreover, the Third Raikage and Yuya's uncle Senju Tobijian have the same virtues, they belong to Pixiu, and they don't want to spit out the money they put in.

It's not okay to be too stingy.

Then the only choices are Iwagakure Village and Sunagakure Village...

Yuya thought over and over again and called the representative of Sunagakure Village in Konoha to the office.

The representative of Sunagakure Village looked confused when he arrived, but was ecstatic when he left.

Representatives from other villages have good connections, and Yuya really has no intention of hiding it, so people from other villages also know about the cooperation between Yuya and Sunagakure Village.

To put it simply, Yuya said that he could cooperate with the factory in Sunagakure Village to produce the masked knight's figure. To be honest, Konoha Village's own handicraft factory is indeed much worse than Sunagakure Village, which specializes in puppet manufacturing.

Moreover, Sand Hidden Village has recently been on the road to charming homes. Regardless of whether you are an otaku or an otaku, as long as you have money, you can customize any kind of machine doll you want.

Yuya is also planning to build a high-quality human model of Gundam, but Sunagakure Village has said that it can be done, but it requires Yuya to give specific design opinions.

Yuya didn't have that time to waste, so he simply planned to wait for the relevant animation to come out in the future and then point at the TV and say to the people in Sunagakure Village: Follow this.

That's it.

This is just one part of the collaboration.

The second item is that Youya wants to deepen its clothing cooperation with Sand Hidden Village. Because Sand Hidden Village is located in the desert, their fabrics are very particular about sealing and breathability. The main thing is that a tiny particle of sand cannot get in and then it will be lost. Don’t be depressed, this kind of material is very good. Yuya said that he can invest in opening a clothing factory in Sunagakure Village, and Sunagakure Village can provide raw materials, or simply Sunagakure Village can provide money and people, Konoha can provide technology, and the two parties can cooperate.

If the effect is good, then open some furniture factories, curtain factories, etc. for the secondary market.

And your Sunagakure Village may be short of things, but there is certainly no shortage of sand.

I have the technology to burn sand into glass. Are you interested in collaborating?

The representative of Sunagakure Village looked at Yuya with eager eyes.

Where is this Konoha's Hokage? This is the God of Wealth of their Sunagakure Village! ! !

He immediately said that I would hurry up and send it to the Third Kazekage for review. You can rest assured that we will definitely give Konoha a reasonable and generous price!

Then we went back overjoyed.

The news then reached the ears of other representatives stationed in Konoha.

Suddenly they couldn't sit still.

The representative of Iwagakure Village immediately sent over an invitation, inviting Yuya to have dinner at the largest restaurant in Konoha.

Basically, as soon as this kind of unofficial private invitation was thrown over, You Ya knew what was going on.

If we talk in the Hokage's office building, it's business, and business must be done in the open. It's hard to talk about a lot of things, so just treat us to a meal and have a private chat, and both parties can come clean.

You Ya understands and agrees.

Went there after get off work that day.

Then, after three rounds of drinking, Iwagakure started to sell out, saying that Iwagakure and Konoha have always been friendly partners, but Iwagakure is poor, and most places in the country have nothing but dirt. They are miserable. !

Youya waved his hand and said what he had to say.

So the representative knelt down at that time and shouted to the bright and majestic Hokage, do you think our Iwagakure Village still has a chance?

Youya was speechless, but he understood what was going on.

People die for money and birds die for food, not to mention that the benefits are really quite a lot.

And really want to say...

It is true that Sunagakure Village is windy and sandy all year round. Iwagakure Village is full of dirt bags and there are quite a few sandstorms, so their fabrics are actually quite good.

We just signed a cooperation agreement with Sunagakure Village. If we abandon our trading partners, this...

Is there anything immoral about it?

Yu Ya raised this question, and the representative of Yanyin Village suddenly became righteous: How can this be said to be immoral? It was clear that Sunagakure Village was deliberately trying to deceive Konoha, and the price they gave was very unreasonable! Our Iwagakure Village only needs 90% of that price!

You Ya suddenly smiled. It turns out that idiots are in the minority in this world.

Especially when it comes to profit distribution, there are even fewer fools.

Sunagakure Village and Konoha just have this intention, and the contract has not yet been drawn up. How can the price be mentioned?

What Iwagakure Village means is that no matter what kind of cooperation Konoha finally reaches with Sunagakure Village, Iwagakure Village is willing to give 90% of the price to complete this cooperation.

You Adam immediately threw aside any bullshit morals.

Morality? How much is it worth?

Then Youya didn't hide it, saying that your Yanyin Village is so rich in land resources, so there is actually something I have wanted to tell you for a long time.

Representatives from Iwagakure Village said they were all ears.

You Adam immediately came up with a series of afforestation plans for the representatives of Yanyin Village. In fact, when Yuya first became Hokage, he already had profiles of the four countries of wind, earth, thunder, and water.

That is: if I were the shadow of the Ninja Village in this country, how should I make everyone rich?

This is a thought that will appear in the mind of everyone who has watched Naruto at one time or another.

In the original history, Sunagakure Village forced Gaara's unlucky father to go digging for gold in the sand to subsidize the finances. Is it possible to lead this village to become rich?

Of course there is.

And Youya has already completed the first step.

Still instigated as Hokage.

This naturally refers to the construction of the Wind Country Grand Canal in Sand Hidden Village, which was led by the second generation Kazekage and resulted in the last third generation Kazekage picking peaches.

Although it took more than ten years, it only needs to be built!

No matter how miserable the life of Sunagakure Village was, it would never be the point in the original history where a village of dignified shadows were needed to pan for gold.

Strictly speaking, the sand in Sand Hidden Village is also a resource. As long as the technology of burning glass is developed, even rougher glass can still make money.

Not to mention that the puppet masters in Sand Hidden Village are natural figurine makers. As long as they are tied to culture, their financial resources can be said to come rolling in.

The reason why Yua didn't show Sunagakure the way to get rich before was naturally because Konoha Village itself hadn't developed at that time, and of course he couldn't let other villages develop.

But now things are different again.

Look at these leeks around you...neighbors, if they are too poor...

There is no profit in doing business in Konoha...

Therefore, it is better to fatten it up so that it can cut some meat.

This is what Youya thought and did.

Then Iwagakure Village was so smart that they directly used 10% of their profits to compete with Sunagakure Village for business.

Ah, this, you are making me a little embarrassed.

Then Youya felt guilty for three seconds, then turned around and decided to build the clothing factory over there in Yanyin Village.

On this day at the end of Konoha 37, the ANBU ninja presented some recent information to Yuya as usual and couldn't help but asked with some confusion:

"Recently, the representatives of Sunagakure Village and Iwagakure Village in Konoha Village have been fighting...

Will this...will this affect our Konoha's reputation, Hokage-sama? "

Yuya felt guilty and covered his face with the information scroll, and then said that there was no problem, they were all...

Well, small problem.
