Late November.

With the help of workers such as Dazner, the International Workers' Cooperative founded by the Aster Flower Chamber of Commerce in the country of waves has been temporarily on the right track.

Of course, the Workers' and People's Cooperatives established in the Land of Waves can only be regarded as the first branch to be established, and its headquarters will be located in the Land of Oni.

Even if it is a branch, the Aster Flower Chamber of Commerce, which is backed by the military, has also spent a lot of effort to establish the branch of the workers' and people's cooperatives in the country of waves.

Although it is a test of the waters, in the distant future, it may also become one of the decisive factors in the transformation of the ninja world.

Unlike other countries, Kazuhime, who received an orthodox education in the country of ghosts since childhood, understands the so-called mass line and the power of the masses.

The prosperous country of ghosts seems to be led by her father Chiba Shiraishi, but the overall implementation steps are nothing more than a simple approach such as opening up the wisdom of the people and emancipating the mind.

The eclectic approach of the Oni Country soon recruited all kinds of talents from all over the ninja world, making these talents die to serve the Oni Country.

They are not ninjas, and it has taken more than ten years to build the country of poor demons into a military power that is not weaker than the five major powers.

Economically, it will surpass any of the five major powers.

These assets, which will not be revealed on the surface, are hidden in the open, which is a strategy that her father Chiba Shiraishi always likes to use.

Based on this education, Kazuhime knows very well what kind of hidden power the so-called 'masses' have.

Maybe 99 percent of them are mediocre, but as long as the remaining 1 percent becomes elite, it is enough to make a huge difference in the world.

In the face of such a torrent of change, perhaps even the extraordinary power of ninjas will be replaced.

Choosing a balance and a point of unity between technology and ninja tradition is the path that Oni no Kuni will follow.

Rather than focusing on the cultivation of a very small number of ninjas day after day, it is better to envelop all human beings and completely change them from the ground up in the form of casting a wide net.

How many ninjas are there in the five major countries?

Fifty thousand? Lakh?

However, the total proportion of special upper ninja and upper ninja is less than 10 percent.

This is known as the number of elite ninjas.

But how many humans are there in the ninja world?

This number will be staggering.

Even if the elite of all mankind accounts for less than one percent of the total number of human beings, in terms of numbers, it is far from being comparable to the ninjas of the five major countries.

The value created by pooling the wisdom of 1 percent of the elite to mobilize 99 percent of the human labor force is a height that has been unattainable in any era of the ninja world so far.

To that end, the Land of Waves is a beginning.

The International Workers' and People's Cooperatives were proposed based on this concept - the organization of the human community.

This is by no means the end.

Whether the Oni Nation is destroyed, the seeds have been produced.

The human beings who have obtained the fire will only rush forward one after the other.

In the face of such a will, death also becomes extremely small.

With small countries as the base, they will form a trend of encirclement of big countries, and at the right time, crush the very small part of the 'elite' system of the past.

The Land of Rain is plunged into a civil war.

The country of ghosts has begun to intervene.

The land of fire and the land of earth are eyeing each other.

The Land of the Wind is a wall-to-wall view.

Although it is not as perfect as planned, the current situation can be controlled.

Kazuhime compared the current ninja world pattern, and also began to officially start the affairs of the country of waves.

The construction of factories is just a pretense, and her real purpose has always been to establish workers' and people's cooperatives to unite the workers and peasants of the country of waves.

The people who do not have unity are just a rabble, and the people who form organizations will form an incomparably terrible torrent that pushes the wheel of the times forward.

Whether the power of the people is strong or not, and whether it is dispersed or organized.

It's already winter, and the country of waves, which is already very humid, has become even colder after entering winter.

The construction progress of the factory is also relatively slow compared to October.

Occasionally, Kazuhime would go over to ask for warmth and bring some condolences, which made the workers led by Dazna grateful.

At present, the number of workers' groups in the workers' cooperatives is the largest.

There are more than 1,300 workers on the record.

This is a credit to Dazner.

The second is the peasants, and there are about 300 peasants on the record, and the number is relatively small.

However, Yiji is not dissatisfied with this, and these numbers are gathered together, which can be regarded as an extremely considerable force.

This is still the number of people recruited under the malicious suppression of the Daimyo of the country of waves.

If it weren't for the Daimyo of the Wave Country to get in the way, the number of people recruited would be even larger.

The reason is also very simple, there is a fire country behind the instructions, aware of the potential harm of workers' cooperatives, and wants to nip the danger in the bud. Compared to the 'new era' that the Oni Country wants, the old-style countries led by the Five Great Powers do not need the wisdom of the people, they just need them to obey and be dominated.

The road to opening such an opening in the country of waves will undoubtedly be very difficult.

Blood, battles, the collision of the old and new worlds will eventually lead to the most brutal wars.

"By the end of this year, the workers' cooperatives should be able to recruit 3,000 people."

Looking at the names of the personnel on the roster, Kazuhime sat in an office with only simple desks and chairs, and made such a rough estimate.

Sixteen hundred people have already joined, and it will not be difficult to double the number of members by the end of the year, as long as they can win the hearts and minds of the people with the most modest interests.

At the end of the day, this is also a pilot exercise.

At present, the workers' cooperatives in the country of waves have no ability to feed back to the country of ghosts, and all the materials need to be taken out of their own pockets by the country of ghosts to supply the country of waves.

They were joined by the lowest level of workers and peasants, who were barely self-sufficient and toiled to survive, let alone create additional wealth for the cooperatives.

However, everything is difficult at the beginning, and as long as we get through this difficulty, the road ahead will be much easier.

Next, according to the number of people and the situation faced by the country of waves, how to invest and how much to invest need to be calculated by the headquarters.

Whether it is a struggle to emancipate the mind or a violent war between people, it is a very money-consuming act.

The reason why the country of ghosts dares to meddle in the internal situation of several small countries at the same time is because its own economic foundation is solid enough, otherwise it would not be possible to adopt such a strategy as multi-front warfare.

"According to the schedule, it is not a problem to recruit 3,000 workers and peasants by the end of the year. By the time of the next year, it seems that it will not only be necessary to build factories, but also to purchase other industries, and to concentrate the labor force of idle workers and peasants. ”

Cardo said.

And rightfully so.

The country of ghosts is not a charity, and it is impossible to blindly give.

If these workers and peasants are unable to create the wealth that belongs to mankind, then there is no need for the country of ghosts to invest.

Striving to spend every amount of money on the blade is the purpose of the Oni Country.

"How's the public opinion going?"

Kazuhime has been practicing ninjas in the stronghold recently, and she doesn't pay much attention to information from the outside world.

"Basically, we have controlled it, after all, what we have given is real benefits, and with preferential policies, the materials and money in the hands of the workers and peasants who have joined the cooperatives will be exchanged. Although the method is a bit stupid and very costly, the initial results are undoubtedly significant. ”

Opening the way with money is the most simple and crude means of winning people's hearts.

But again, such a means of entrapment is very low-level and very easy to destroy.

Using money to maintain system governance, just like the mercenary model of Ninja Village, is more than self-preservation, and the expansion is seriously insufficient.

"Just keep going at this pace, it's not us who are in a hurry now."

The current situation is somewhat similar to the previous War in the Land of Winds.

The country of ghosts belongs to the attacking side, and every step is steady and steady, not greedy for merit, and seeking progress in stability, as long as you maintain your advantage and crush the past with an absolute momentum.

Whether it is a competition for military strength or an economic foundation, compared to the current country of fire, the country of ghosts has sufficient confidence.

The current Fire Country is just barely maintaining the throne of the first great power based on the victory of the Third Ninja World War.

But with such a flashy first throne, Kazuhime only saw the afterglow of the decline of the Fire Country.

And as the country of ghosts continues to grow stronger, the so-called 'first' is only the pride of the old era.

As for other countries, the previous Five Shadows Conference has exposed the contradictions within the five major countries.

What the Oni Country fears is the five great powers that are united, not the five great powers that are scattered.

"Yes, as the eldest lady said, it is not us who is anxious now. Just wait for them to expose their flaws. ”

Cardo pushed the sunglasses on the bridge of his nose and smiled sinisterly.

"Workers' cooperatives? It turns out that the fire daimyo is worried about such a thing? ”

Located in a castle-style mansion, large merchants from isolated islands gathered here.

The meeting room is very large and the décor is gorgeous.

The castle, built with a huge amount of money, both in appearance and interior, reflects the extraordinary status of the castle owner.

Although it has been decided to completely eliminate the forces belonging to the country of ghosts in the territory of the country of waves, there is still no accurate conclusion on how to do it and how to implement the plan.

Because the will of the merchants is not unified.

Half of the merchants intend to compete with normal commerce and drive the country of ghosts out of the country of waves.

The other half of the merchants plan to use an aggressive approach to an efficient and direct assassination plan to deter the Oni Country.

This kind of discussion has always been the focus of discussion among businessmen.

In particular, the Fire Country urged them to solve the workers' and people's cooperatives established by the Oni Country in the Land of Waves as soon as possible, which made the discussion among the merchants more intense.

"I don't think there's any need to worry about this kind of thing, with our strength, we don't need to be too aggressive, and we can directly launch a business war against the Aster Flower Chamber of Commerce, and we can achieve our goal."

"But it's going to take a long time, and we don't have a lot of time to waste right now. No one knows what form the Rain Civil War will take, and if the Oni Country succeeds in drawing most of the Fire Nation's energy in the Rain Country, it will be extremely passive for us to act. ”

Although the interests of the Merchant Alliance of the Isolated Island and the Fire Nation are not completely identical, they are currently in a cooperative relationship.

If the Fire Nation is at a disadvantage in the fight against the Oni Country, then their plan to turn the Wave Country into a second paradise island will undoubtedly fail.

"Not only the land of fire, but also the country of earth is also opposing the country of ghosts and entering the country of rain. I think it's better to use a stable commercial war to expel the Oni no Kuni forces in the country of waves. If it's too aggressive, maybe it will be hit hard by the country of ghosts like the country of wind a few months ago. ”

Not all businessmen are adventurous.

The plan has finally reached this point, and the best way is to stabilize its own advantages.

Although the goal can be achieved quickly by means of assassination, whether it succeeds or fails, it may cause more serious problems in the future.

"No, the normal business war is progressing too slowly, and the Aster Flower Chamber of Commerce is not a small chamber of commerce, once the business war is launched, it will not be limited to the country of waves, and it will be easy to form a stalemate."

The merchants had their own opinions, and although they all contributed to the alliance, they also disagreed with each other due to differences of opinion.

"So, how about one faction focusing on commercial warfare and the other faction planning assassination plans, and the two strategies being implemented together?"

Eventually, a businessman reluctantly spoke up and spoke his mind.

There are many businessmen with radical ideas, and it is obviously unrealistic to try to convince these people to give up in a short period of time.

If you continue to argue like this, it is easy to delay the opportunity.

The country of ghosts has begun to press up, and if their forces cannot be unified, they will be broken by each of them.

Only when they join forces can they show the power that makes the country of ghosts fearful.

This is also the reason why they are not worried that the Oni Nations will destroy them by force.

The chain of interests behind them is intricate, involving the underground black market, involving many countries, and even officials from some major countries have shares. If the country of demons wants to destroy them by force, it will be tantamount to declaring war on many countries in the ninja world, and they will be truly isolated internationally.

But the decision-makers of the country of ghosts are smarter and will never be stupid to use violence.

Therefore, the assassination plan of the radical businessman is not without merit.

"Do you do both strategies together? That's a good idea. However, I declare in advance that if you want to carry out an assassination, this girl should not be killed, and she will be captured alive, she is Chiba Kazuhime, the daughter of Chiba Shiraishi and Uchiha Ruri. If you accidentally kill her, the follow-up problem will be very tricky. ”

A merchant pulls out a photograph and places it on the table for the rest of the merchants to see.

"In other words, you have to use her as a bargaining chip in the end, right?"

The businessmen in charge of the assassination plan looked at the girl in the photo with interest.

"I wonder if there is an awakening writing wheel? After all, this is a rare blood inheritance limit, but even if you catch her, you can't take it for yourself, it's a pity. ”

Many businessmen expressed regret.

They are all regulars in the Isolated Island Arena, and they have recruited a lot of unique ninjas under their command.

In particular, ninjas who have mastered the ability of secret arts and blood inheritance limits are their favorite type of ninjas.

Because the arcane art and the blood inheritance limit mean special, and special means powerful.

Coupled with their wealth, sooner or later, the merchant alliance of the isolated island will become a super-large force that affects the pattern of the ninja world, and there is no need to look at the eyes of the big countries to speak.

It's like the country of ghosts that is rising rapidly today.

It's just that Yiji's identity is special, and her parents are ninjas who are famous in the ninja world, and they can't take it for their own use, and they can't kill it hastily, otherwise it will attract crazy revenge from the country of ghosts.

And by capturing Yiji alive, they will have the confidence to bargain with the country of ghosts, so that things have room to turn around, so that they will not fall into a disadvantage when negotiating with the country of ghosts.

"Then, the assassination plan will be handed over to you, give priority to getting rid of Cardo beside her, and the worker representative Dazna, I believe that as long as she loses her spokesperson on the surface, she will have to come forward to face us in person."

"Don't worry about that, this time we will send our elite ninjas to make sure that the plan is foolproof."

"The fire daimyo's ...... over there"

"Workers' cooperatives? When a rabble gathers together, it will always be just a rabble. As long as we expel the country of ghosts from the country of waves as soon as possible, the fire daimyo will have nothing to say. ”

Unlike the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, the merchants believed that the workers and peasants were just a rabble, and no matter how many people gathered, they could not change their nature.

Although some businessmen think that it is inappropriate, most businessmen do not feel that the workers' cooperative society occupies any weight in the next game, and think that there is no need to deal with it.

The most important thing right now is to expel the country of demons from the country of waves, and not to waste your efforts on a rabble.

◎

"Dad, this winter, it seems that our family can spend it very easily."

At Dazna's house, her daughter Tsunami said to Dazna very happily.

Because Dazner joined the workers' cooperative, his family quickly received feedback on the preferential policies of the workers' cooperatives for the families of its members.

For example, if you buy materials or use money to buy daily necessities, all family members who join the cooperative will enjoy internal discount benefits. In addition, if it is a family whose life is a problem, the cooperative society distributes the necessary living materials free of charge, but on the other hand, it needs labor to compensate, which is also an indirect solution to the distress of unemployment for poor families.

This is a real deal, and it makes Jinami, who has been struggling with how to spend this winter, have a smile on her face.

Dazna picked up the wine bottle and took a sip of wine, then wiped the wine that accidentally dripped from the corner of his mouth, and said, "I didn't expect that Miss Yiji really planned to redeem these preferential policies. I always feel that she cares more about the lives of us at the bottom than our big names. ”

At first, Dazner was only grateful to Yihime and joined the so-called workers' cooperatives with some of the workers.

However, with the implementation of the preferential policies of the cooperatives, the workers who have benefited from the benefits have begun to take the initiative to publicize the workers' cooperatives without the need for Dazner to publicize them personally.

This gave Dazna the illusion that Kazuhime was the daimyo of their country of waves.

No...... Even if it is a daimyo, it is impossible to throw money in such a bold way.

For Dazna, as long as the taxes are not increased, it is time to thank the nobles for their mercy.

"It would be nice to have Miss Kazuhime come to be the name of our country. What do you think, Dad? ”

Tsunami said jokingly.

"Tsunami, you really dare to think about it. If this kind of thing is heard, it will be quite troublesome. ”

Dazna looked helplessly at his daughter.

"Got it, I'm not going to talk nonsense."

"Compared to this, I think it's better for you to find a new husband to rely on, if I can't work in the future, at least there is someone at home to support."

Dazna said, intentionally or not.

Tsunami glared at Dazna.

"Dad, I don't want to think about this now. I usually have to take care of I, where do I have time to find men? And who would fancy a widow like me who has a dead husband? ”

Although she is not yet thirty, Tsunami still has the ability to have children, but the identity of a widow is destined not to be accepted by many men.

Tsunami was ready to be widowed in the future.

As for the issue of remarriage, Tsunami has long lost hope.

Dazna smiled bitterly, seeing that her daughter was so determined, she no longer mentioned the matter of making her consider remarrying.

"Speaking of which, where is I?"

Dazna asked.

"He's hanging out with his friends, he'll be back before dinner."

Tsunami replied.

"Children are really carefree."

"It's still young after all."

"In two years, he will be able to follow me and learn a little simple trade to earn a living. Ancestral things can't be broken in my generation. ”

Dazna said drunkly.

Tsunami nodded, cleaned up the mess in the room, and said to Dazna, "Dad, I'm going to cook, and I'm going to drink less." ”

With that, she left the room and headed for the kitchen.

After Tsunami left, Dazna sat in the room for a while, then stood up, trying to move his body.

Suddenly, a snorting sound sounded from the half-open window, causing Dazna to wake up from his slightly drunken state and subconsciously turn his head to look at the window.

With the sound just now, the window was opened at some point, and a dark shadow approached like a gale, causing Dazna's eyes to widen in horror.

Ninja!

Although he did not wear a forehead guard, the other party held the kunai in his hand and moved his body flexibly, allowing Dazna to instantly judge the identity of the other party.

Because he was too scared in his heart, and it was the first time he had encountered such a thrilling scene, Dazna forgot to dodge, and saw that Kunai was about to wipe his throat and end his life, when a bolt of lightning shot out of nowhere, covering the ninja's whole body through Kunai.

"Ahh

The ninja screamed in pain, and the thunder and lightning paralyzed his body, unable to move, and lay down towards the ground.

"Dad, what's going on, how do I hear someone screaming in the room?"

Tsunami heard the screams in the room, and hurriedly ran into the room, and saw the ninja who was paralyzed by thunder and lightning and fell to the ground weakly, showing a look of surprise.

"It's ......"

"Don't worry, ma'am, these miscellaneous fish won't hurt you in the slightest."

A light voice rang out in the room.

It was a pitch-black, feline-like four-legged cub, and on top of its head, there was a single horn that was different from ordinary creatures, and it was densely lit with blue electricity.

Raising one forelimb, he greeted Dazna and Tsunami in a friendly manner.

It's Thundering Maru.

"Monsters, monsters!?"

Dazna looked at the thundering pill who spoke, and it was easy to think of the existence of youkai.

"I'm not a monster, I'm a psychic beast, and I'm currently serving the eldest lady. Forget it, the details of the matter, let's talk about it later, there are a few guys who peep here, I'll deal with it in the past. ”

Thundering Pill turned around, his limbs clutched the ground, and the chakra in his body began to work, and the electricity on the unicorn quickly covered his whole body, enveloping his whole body in electric light.

Then, Thunderingmaru suddenly disappeared from the room without warning, and there was still a faint electric current on the floor, proving that Thunderingmaru had existed there before.

Outside the house, screams rang out one after another, and Dazna could even smell the smell of blood that was gradually spreading in the air.

After about half a minute, the screaming outside the house finally stopped, and Thunderingmaru jumped into the room from the window as if nothing happened, and fresh human blood remained on his claws.
