Chapter 241: Tools
Without the interference of Iwa Shinobi, against brainless beasts, Sand Shinobi can easily do it.
Except for a few unlucky ones who were slightly injured, there were no other losses.
Not only that, but you can also harvest a batch of fresh meat and rare materials, which is not without a small supplement.
"After harvesting this batch, it will take another two or three years to make up for it......"
The land is barren and can't support too many wild animals, but even if you can hunt a lot of good things, you probably can't satisfy the greed of humans.
While dealing with the hard-won good things, Daimaru looked at the materials that were broken by the laymen who couldn't hold their hands in distress.
"It's all treasures, it's really a tyrannical thing!"
Yame moved his somewhat sore arm and looked at Daimaru, who was sorting the materials:
"If it's a whole good thing, can you afford it?"
Serious puppet stylists, who can afford these "rags"? Only Daimaru still has the patience to take it back.
"That's right, I just think that most of the sand ninja are so poor that they still have an attitude of treating money like dung, I don't know where it came from......"
When dividing the material, if you are a little careful and keep it intact, you can sell it for a higher price, but few Shinobi have the patience to do so.
"Look at the entire Northern Fortress, who else is collecting these basic materials besides you?"
Qian sighed,
"Everyone is not stupid, good things have been recycled by the village, these second-level materials, maybe someone will ask for them, but most of the time they are rotten in their hands, so naturally no one will care."
"I understand the truth, but I can't help it......"
I knew it in advance, and it might be better to have enough of this "garbage".
"Fortunately, it's enough for me to make a dozen basic version of the puppet spider, and when this business is officially on the right track and the funds are flowing, I will be relaxed......"
And Kankuro's side, I don't know if there is any progress, it would be nice if it could be opened in one fell swoop.
Putting the sorted materials into the storage scroll, Daimaru took out a pair of windproof goggles from his pocket and handed it to Chi.
"For me? How can it be so fast? ”
"It's already slow, trust my craft. Just the windproof goggles, if you hadn't asked for too much and it took too much time to polish the lenses, it would have been completed a long time ago......"
Yemu happily put on the windproof goggles and tried the effect, there was no ghosting and blurred edges of ordinary lenses, and it was not contaminated with wind, sand and water mist.
In addition, the frame is carved from extremely tough bone material, and is carefully tanned with leather and animal tendons, which are moderately elastic and fit the facial skin without discomfort.
"It's not bad, it's not very special, but it's really practical."
"Is it that hard to honestly compliment my skills?"
Daimaru complained a little unhappily, and at the same time took out a mask with obvious color contrasts, both like an owl in the dark and a bit like a fire fox, and handed it to Chi.
"Take it! This is made of standard puppet face composite materials.,As for the texture.,I tried my best.,It feels pretty good.,In addition,You can load a ninjutsu or illusion inside.,But the limit is C-level.,You can carve it yourself.,No,I'll help you......"
"That's good, that's enough!"
Chiba took Daimaru's work, generously brushed her forehead and sideburns, and then put on the mask, revealing only her mouth and smooth chin.
"Just the right size, that's it!"
"It's good to be satisfied!"
Daimaru breathed a sigh of relief, and took the time to patiently make it until midnight at night, and finally the effort was not in vain.
"You can't wait to give out New Year's gifts, are you afraid that Qian and I won't send you something?"
Yeme, who seemed to have been prepared, teased as he pulled out a handful of black metal-like objects.
Daimaru took it and weighed it in his hand.
"Nice carving knife, where's that?"
The complete set of tools used by the puppet stylist consists of countless small pieces, of which various carving knives account for the majority.
"That's a long story......"
"Long story short...... Forget it, let's stop talking. The gift was so-so, not much of a surprise, but not a disappointment either......"
Daimaru made a few strokes, tested its sharpness, and then put the carving knife away.
Obviously, it took a lot of effort to introduce its origin and enhance the persuasive Yemu, who had to hold it in his stomach.
"What do you want? With Uncle Ben's knowledge, there are not many things that can surprise me in this world, only the money that can be spent can satisfy me, you are good, just enough to use ......"
At the moment when Daimaru Co., Ltd. is about to be launched, it would be nice to have one more tool at hand.
Qian on the side didn't have much thought, and calmly took out what he had prepared a long time ago.
"Velvet paintbrush?"
Daimaru took it blankly and looked at what should have been a handmade tool,
"You two have negotiated? It's all a tool for making puppets......"
Qian smiled and shook his head: "It's just a coincidence!" ”
Generally, the main material of the puppet is wood, and the puppet modeler's carpentry skills must be passed, followed by the carving skills, and when the chakra circuit is built-in, the hand must be steady.
In addition, if you want to make a more realistic puppet, you must at least draw the face vividly, so the painting skills of most puppet stylists are still so-so.
"Look at your white velvet iron fan is beautifully made, and the fine velvet paintbrush is also very good, what material is it made of?"
"The fluff ...... of the neck of a young mountain eagle"
"This ...... How many eagles have you scourged to collect enough fluff for a pen? ”
The weather was still quite cold, and a layer of cold sweat broke out on Orochimaru's forehead.
The Land of the Wind Mountain Eagle has very few habitats and is not easy to find, and a pair of mountain eagles breed one chick a year, and they are very vigilant, and most of them build their nests between the inaccessible mountains.
"It's hard to find in the Land of Wind, there are a lot of them in the Land of Fire, and Konoha Village is not like Sand Hidden Village, where you can buy everything......"
Well, Daimaru didn't ask how much it cost to buy materials, this kind of thing is rare and expensive, and it is generally not cheap.
"I received your return gift, which is worse than what I gave you, but it's normal, after all, I am not as ingenious as I am!"
"I always feel that I am not as happy as I imagined!"
Nighteyes muttered quietly,
"Is it because you're on the front lines?"
Qian smiled and shook his head:
"Look at people! Usually on New Year's Eve, I have to spend it happily with my family......"
Chiwa Yeme's family conditions are slightly better than Daimaru, his parents were alive when he was a child, and there were some relatives who had a good relationship with him, unlike Daimaru, only his mother raised Daimaru with his grandfather.
Just like other ninja villages, in fact, many villagers are not very talented, and their children are naturally difficult to have amazing talents.
Like Yame, Chiwa Daimaru, it is a relatively common type of civilian ninja in Sand Hidden Village, and it was discovered by relying on one or two specialties, and it was not eliminated like other peers with ordinary qualifications.
"Family!"
Daimaru chuckled!
Remembering the spirit of beating every year, the grandfather who chattered endlessly about Daimaru, the mother who rarely complained and paid silently, Daimaru generally did his own thing patiently.
If you really want to talk about it, it's not so harmonious, but there is an indescribable sense of warmth.
"I have no brothers and sisters, why have you never heard you talk about family affairs?"
"There's nothing to say, my parents don't approve of me being a ninja, so they expect me to take a little more blow and give up early so that I can go back and get married......"
Thinking of her family's plans, the petite female ninja was a little unhappy.
"Even if you don't agree, it's not bad to let you be a ninja for two or three years......"
Civilian families, most of them will be proud of having a ninja in their family, but there are exceptions, such as Yame, it's hard to believe that such a young body will become an excellent ninja, rather than tossing hopelessly, it's better to change careers sooner.
"It's okay, it's a lot of nagging, but it's also a good family ......"
"The so-called relatives, isn't that what it is! Qian, how is your family? ”
"The age difference between brothers and sisters is too big, and it is difficult to have too many common topics, but it is still harmonious......"
"Ordinary ......"
"I think it's good, although my family doesn't understand, they support me to continue being a ninja......"
"You two, you're going to be mediocre! But fortunately, you met me, and you will not have anything to do with ordinary people in the future......"
Daimaru said in high spirits.
You've already boarded a thief ship, and you still want to go down easily? It's hard to catch two subordinates who don't have many requirements and can still squeeze hard, how can they let go easily?
