47. The gap between ninjas
Escorted by Ape Fei Asma, Wang Bo and his party arrived at Konoha smoothly.
After a night's rest, Wang Bo went to the Hokage Building the next day and once again met the strongest Hokage who had made Konoha plummet.
"Welcome, Lord Igarashi."
Compared with the last time, this time Ape Fei Ri was more and more polite, after all, Wang Bo was now a big businessman of the Five Kingdoms, and the funds in his hands were so abundant that he also coveted them.
What's more, Wang Bo is still Konoha's big customer, and he gives Konoha tens of millions of taels of funds every year, and it is a matter of course to be polite.
"We've met Hokage-sama again." Wang Bo didn't talk nonsense, and said straight to the point: "I came back this time to renew the contract with Hokage-sama, let's get started." ”
Ape Fei Ri nodded, "It should be, it should be." ”
He opened the drawer beside him, took out a scroll from it, and handed it to Wang Bo.
Wang Bo took it and took a look, and found that in addition to the funds for protecting the hot pot restaurant, it had increased by three million taels to forty-five million taels, and Konoha also had several more conditions.
"The country of rivers, the country of frost, the country of waves, the country of mountains, and the country of tea, Konoha really has a big appetite, you really have so many ninjas, can you help me protect my store?"
Wang Bo is skeptical.
Konoha has several additional conditions, that is, he hopes that Wang Bo can hand over the hot pot restaurants of these countries to the ninjas of Konoha to deal with.
Although Wang Bo has not yet established hot pot restaurants in these countries, they believe that with Wang Bo's expansion speed, these are things that will happen sooner or later, so they put forward this condition at this time.
Wang Bo also felt that he could do this, but the problem was that if Konoha sent out so many shinobi in one go, wouldn't it be amazingly empty inside.
At that time, if something happens, these ninjas won't even have time to come back to support Konoha.
Sarutobi said with a smile: "Your Excellency Igarashi doesn't know, these are small countries, there is no need to send too powerful ninjas, we Konoha currently have a lot of retired ninjas, maybe they can't go to the battlefield, but it's more than enough to protect some storefronts." ”
Wang Bo suddenly understood, this is relying on himself. wants to use his own hot pot restaurant to feed Konoha who are disabled and retired ninjas.
And he did admit that the countries that Sarutobi proposed were all small countries, and there were not even a few ninjas, and some retired disabled ninjas were indeed qualified to protect their hot pot restaurants.
Wang Bo thought for a while and didn't refuse, "Since Hokage-sama is so refreshing, then I can win, but since you are sending out a cruel ninja, then my employment fee can't be according to the normal ninja price, I don't know if Hokage-sama agrees." ”
Sarutobi took a puff of his cigarette and said, "How much does Your Excellency Igarashi plan to give?" ”
"A tenth of a normal ninja." Wang Bo said calmly.
Ape Fei Ri shook his head and said: "It's too few, although they are disabled, they have no problem dealing with ordinary people, and one tenth can please not move these ninjas, I think it's still a third." ”
"Don't think about it." Wang Bo rolled his eyes directly and said, "One eighth." ”
Of course, Ape Fei Ri Slash did not agree to this price, and finally after some haggling, Wang Bo paid one-fifth of the price to hire this group of retired cruel people.
The group was either blind or missing arms and legs, which was a fatal flaw for ninjas.
But for ordinary people, they are still ninjas who kill people without blinking.
Guarding a hot pot restaurant couldn't be easier.
After the two of them signed the contract, they both smiled with satisfaction.
Sarutobi felt that he had found a way out for Konoha's cruel ninjas, not only to generate income, but also to allow the group of ninjas to protect their families and no longer worry about their livelihoods.
Wang Bo can expand his business with confidence.
In the past two years, the reason why his hot pot restaurant business has been able to expand so much is due to the contributions of these ninjas.
With them, there is no way for those competitors to use abnormal competition methods to destroy Wang Bo's business, which is why Wang Bo can expand unscrupulously.
Because this group of ninjas has made countless open guns and hidden arrows for his hot pot restaurant.
Otherwise, just the disgusting methods of the competitors would be enough to make Wang Bo eat a pot.
But because of the existence of ninjas, the methods of these disgusting people of competitors could not succeed, and Wang Bo's hot pot restaurant was able to expand so smoothly and operate smoothly.
This is also the reason why Wang Bo does not hesitate to spend such a huge price every year to hire ninjas.
After all, this group of ninjas is indeed very trustworthy, and they collect money and do things, and they are not ambiguous at all.
Wang Bo is willing to spend this money.
Anyway, compared to the money Wang Bo earned, this money is not even one-tenth of his net profit, but it can cause such a huge effect, why not do it.
The day after the agreement was signed, Wang Bo left Konoha.
He first went back to the base of the Fire Country, and found that the base was under the management of Satoma, and there was no big mistake, and everything was thriving.
The strength of the imps has also improved well, and some of the best ones are not even inferior to the middle ninja.
In a sense, it's a genius.
This kind of progress is very rare when you look at Konoha.
However, if you want to advance from the middle ninja to the upper ninja, it will take a little time, even if a genius like Kakashi, graduated from the ninja school at the age of five, and was promoted to the middle ninja at the age of six, but it was not until the age of twelve that he was promoted to the upper ninja.
It can be seen that there is a big gap between the middle ninja and the upper ninja.
At least compared to the lower ninja to the middle ninja, there is a considerable gap.
Of course, what I want to explain here is that the lower forbearance, the middle forbearance, and the upper forbearance actually do not refer to strength, but a kind of qualification certificate.
For example, there is only one Hokage, but there are many shadow-level powerhouses.
For example, Tsunade, Jiraiya, and Orochimaru, all three of them have strength that is not inferior to the Hokage, but they are still an elite shinobi in Konoha, not the Hokage.
And the Uzumaki Naruto and Uchiha Sasuke at the end of the plot can fight against Kaguya Otsuki, but the two of them are still genuine shinobi in Konoha.
It can be seen from here that the lower forbearance, the middle forbearance, and the upper forbearance refer to qualifications, and cannot be equated with strength.
But it is undeniable that this division also represents strength in a sense.
After all, if the strength is not enough, Konoha will not promulgate the name of the middle ninja to the lower ninja.
It's just that this division is very vague.
It is not a problem for some high-strength lower ninjas to kill the middle ninja alone, but the vast majority of the middle ninja is higher in strength than the lower ninja.
