Chapter 16: Shuo Mao's Request
In Shuo Mao's completely sluggish expression, the first child was satisfied with eating and drinking the three new bowls of ramen, and then by the way, he also ate the chicken leg that Shuo Mao had not touched.
"Hey, there's no waste!"
The newborn patted his stomach, burped, and nodded in satisfaction.
Shuo Mao stretched out his hand and pinched the nascent's arm, and said regretfully: "It's a pity, if you were born in Konoha, even if you were just a commoner, with such a unique physique, you would definitely become an excellent physical ninja." ”
"Oh, Tsunade also said that I was too old, otherwise I would definitely be able to train into a peerless macho man who is unique in ten thousand."
In fact, the newborn who didn't have much interest in becoming a ninja casually said perfunctorily, looked up and asked, "So Shuo Maosan, what is the matter with you looking for me?" ”
Looking at the little twisted big boy in front of him, the first child somewhat understood why in the future, he would commit suicide because of some rumors and hidden the tricks behind him.
Although this guy has no strength to say, he is really not good at socializing and expressing his emotions.
He's not an emotionless killer, he's a shy killer.
Shuo Mao hesitated for a moment, and with some embarrassment, he took out a shuriken from his arms and put it on the table.
The first student was stunned, and hurriedly checked his package, and the shuriken sample in it was indeed missing.
"It's very presumptuous, I picked it up on the road before and didn't return it to you directly." Shuo Mao put his ten fingers on the table and asked, "Can you tell me where this shuriken was made?" ”
Probably thinking that he was still a little abrupt, Shuo Mao further explained: "The craftsman who made this weapon should be making ninja tools for the first time, right?" His steelmaking standards are very high, but there are some small details that are a little green. ”
"It's you, Shuo Maojun!"
The first child nodded and said, "This is indeed the work of a group of professional blacksmiths, and they have always loved peace and made a living by building farm tools.
It's just that as the ninja world becomes chaotic again, he has to build weapons to protect his family. ”
Hearing this, Shuo Mao suddenly became excited, "Where can I hire these blacksmiths?" ”
……
It turned out that Hagi Shuomao was the patriarch of this generation of the Hagi family.
Because he has always been thin, in his generation, only Shuo Mao is left.
It seems that the glory of the Qimu clan is going to be like the population of this family, dissipating with the wind and disappearing into the long history of Konoha.
However, fate took a turn at this time, and geniuses were always born in desperate situations.
Qimu Shuomao, since the establishment of the village in Konoha, the undoubted first chief student of the ninja school, the ten-year-old middle ninja, the fourteen-year-old upper ninja, entered the dark department in the same year, and quickly won the title of Konoha White Fang.
Now, at a young age, he has even surpassed his father to become the most successful ninja in the entire family's history.
With such a perfect start, Shuo Mao felt that he also needed to take on the responsibility of a man and completely revitalize the family business.
However, the revival of a family is not enough to rely on the efforts of the head of the family, and the establishment of related industries is the key to ensuring the prosperity of a family.
There are famous big families in Konoha, such as Senju, Uchiha, Hinata, and Oil Girl, all of them have mature family industries, forming behemoths that make the Hokage fearful.
For medium-sized families such as Pig Deer Butterfly, the importance of the family industry is second only to the family heirloom secret arts.
For example, the drugstore in Nara and the flower shop in the mountains have basically formed a certain degree of monopoly in Konoha.
The industry earns money, the money supports the ninjas, the ninjas protect the interests of the family, and the interests of the family protect the development of the industry...... Such a mature vein has been formed.
Relatively speaking, the Konoha ninja business is still a blank, and the first family of this industry in the future, the Tiantian family has not yet been formed.
After all, the Tiantian family with strong Chinese elements looks like an outsider no matter how you look at it.
In short, if the Qimu family wants to revivenation, then it is also essential to reorganize the family industry, and the ninja industry is undoubtedly a good choice, but the talents of metallurgical forging are rare.
In order to support Shuo Mao to become a ninja, the family business of the Hagi family has been sold.
Now Shuo Mao has saved a lot of money with the mission bounty, but he just can't find a suitable investment channel, after all, he is better at killing people than doing business.
And from the first birth, Shuo Mao seems to see some hope.
"Anyway, No. 19-kun, I hope you can introduce me to these blacksmiths from other villages, please!"
Looking at the sincere Qimu Shuomao, he held his chin in embarrassment: "That Shuo Maosang, you may not know, they have been working for our Bofeng clan all along......"
"The Bofeng Clan......" Shuo Mao looked at the newborn with a little confusion.
"Uh...... Although we are only a small family, we actually have some followers......"
The first born changed the topic while talking nonsense, after all, although he had a family name, the Bofeng family had been farmers and fishermen for five generations, and it really had nothing to do with the famous family.
"Although the Bofeng family has been very declining, but those guys are unexpectedly loyal, what kind of Oyuki family, Kishimoto family, and Fujian family, still follow me......"
"Tail line? Eiichiro Oyuki? Shuo Mao couldn't help but exclaim.
"You know him?"
"Uh...... I think I've heard of it, but I can't remember it exactly......"
Originally, Shuo Mao, who was going to do some research on the first child, gave up this plan after hearing the surname Oyuki.
Because he had seen this name by chance in a high-level document of the Shadow Ministry, it is said that "that lord" personally requested special approval to be added to the list of memorial monuments.
The status has reached the level of Shuo Mao, although it is far from entering the core power circle of Konoha, but it is still heard of from time to time about various secrets.
According to Shuo Mao's own judgment, this Oyuki Eiichiro is likely to be the henchman of Lord Danzo!
It's no wonder that the young man in front of him, who doesn't have chakra fluctuations, talks and laughs with Tsunade Hime, it turns out that there is something extraordinary.
Thinking of this, Shuo Mao couldn't help but sigh, it seemed that the way to do the ninja business was broken.
Elder Tuanzang wants to do this business, who dares to steal food?
Although Elder Tuanzang had been busy with the birth and death of the village before, he had not taken any benefits and privileges for his family.
But people change.
Especially recently, there has been some bad news that Elder Tuanzang's health is deteriorating and he may retire at any time, and the Shimura clan doesn't seem to have heard of any outstanding young people, at least Shuo Mao has not encountered them in the army.
The only thing I heard was that Elder Tuanzang's nephew was very uncompetitive and did not go to work at the Konoha Ninja School as he wished.
Under such circumstances, it is understandable for Elder Tuanzang to make more plans for his family, and Shuo Mao understands it very well.
But understanding is understanding, and loss is inevitable.
However, at this moment, there was an extra contract in front of him.
