Kakuto arrived at the port on the ship prepared by the Water Country as promised, but the group of Konoha root ninjas guarding him made the hearts of everyone in the Fog Hidden Village skip a beat.

"Konoha Shadows!"

Xiu frowned slightly, and Terumi understood that things were more tricky than she imagined.

Originally, I only thought it was the big guy who was made up by some merchants in the Fire Country, but now it seems that this is not the case, and it is likely to be the handiwork of Konoha.

"It shouldn't be the dark part, it could be the root of the dark ninja."

At this time, a middle-aged man with an eye patch walked over, it was Qing, who had the title of white-eyed killer.

Knowing the appearance of the Konoha No., the Fog Hidden Village sent Qing over as soon as possible, no matter what kind of plan the other party had, Qing's white eyes could see through it one by one.

"Shimura Danzo!"

Her brows furrowed deeply, and although she hadn't seen the shinobi of Konoha before, she also understood that it was a rather tricky character.

It's not a good thing that the roots appear on the main island of the Land of Water.

"Are those supplies real?"

Asked in a low voice, Terumi needed to determine the other party's true intentions here.

"Judging from the results I saw, the supplies are real, and they are about the same as those on the list, and there are ten ninjas on board who are divided by Hinata."

Nodding, Qing was very curious about this, was the other party really here to establish trade?

"It's good if the supplies are real!"

Receiving an affirmative response, Terumi strode forward to meet the group of people who had disembarked from the ship.

"Mr. Kakuto, I've admired your name for a long time!"

Enthusiastically complimented the horns led by her, she was quite curious about this ninja old-timer.

Seriously, if it weren't for the huge chakra in the other party's body, she wouldn't have been able to associate the successful man in front of her with gold wire glasses, suits and leather shoes, and a big back comb with that traitor.

It's just two people!

"It's all just a false name, and I haven't been a ninja for a long time, and now I'm the president of the Fire Chamber of Commerce, and I ask your village to take care of the business of the Water Country in the future."

Waving his hand modestly, Kakudu said that he had been doing business for a long time and was no longer a member of the ninja world.

These words made Terumi speechless, this morning she got the latest information from Kakuto, two months ago this guy used a rebellious corpse to go to the underground exchange to receive a bounty!

It's only been two months, is it a long time?

Of course, although she secretly complained in her heart, Zhao Meiming did not say this, and she still understood this point of human sophistication.

"By the way, the draft of your dock is too shallow, and our Konoha can't be moored, do you think you will dig it or we will do it?"

Kakura didn't mean to talk nonsense, and directly said that he wanted to moor the Konoha in to unload.

"Konoha!"

Miao's eyes narrowed slightly, and Zhao Meiming smiled: "I don't need you to do this in this regard, our people can solve it." ”

After speaking, he waved his hand, and the ninja of the Fog Hidden Village in the rear stepped forward and dived under the water of the dock and began to dig deep with ninjutsu.

No matter what kind of plan the Fire Chamber of Commerce and Konoha had, in short, it was the consensus of the Fog Hidden Village and the Daimyo Mansion to eat this batch of materials first.

With this batch of materials to open the way, many things were much easier to say, and soon the merchants of the Fire Nation who arrived with the arrival of the horn capital began to dump their own products and goods on the merchants of the Water Country.

Kakuto, on the other hand, had an in-depth conversation with Terumi and a representative sent by the Daimyo's Mansion to discuss trade between the two sides.

If it's just an ordinary maritime businessman, it's naturally not worth their attention, but this time not only did the Konoha root ninja make a move, but the other party's steel giant ship was also quite scary, and it was completely a strategic-level existence.

Not to mention anything else, that one carrying capacity alone shocked everyone, it was a full five million tons of materials!

This pier is already the largest on the main island of the Water Country, but there are not so many supplies gathered here.

In the end, Terumi Ming planned to join the Fire Chamber of Commerce on behalf of the Fog Hidden Village, but was rejected by Kakudu, a very resolute kind.

"Mr. Kakuto, we are very sincere."

Sincerely speaking, Terumi secretly thought about the reason for Kakuto's refusal, and the minister of the Daimyo Mansion on the other side also frowned secretly.

With the existence of that kind of steel giant, the growth of the Fire Chamber of Commerce is unstoppable, and they don't want to stop it, so it's a good choice to join it.

The Land of Water has been closed for too long, and it has fallen behind this world too much, so it must break the previous blockade as soon as possible and integrate into this world, so as not to be eliminated.

The Chamber of Commerce of Fire is an opportunity.

"I feel your sincerity, but our Fire Chamber of Commerce only recruits merchants from the Fire Country, and once we recruit merchants from other countries, it will cause a lot of unnecessary trouble.

But you can also form a Water Chamber of Commerce to trade with us, and by the way, the steel giant ship like the Konoha can also be leased to you for use, which is not the property of our Fire Chamber of Commerce, but Mr. Li's.

The canned food on the previous list was the product of Mr. Li's food processing factory. ”

Shaking his head slightly, the horns were quite distressed about this, the kind of pain that dripped blood.

If you can recruit merchants from within the Water Nation to the Fire Chamber of Commerce, it is difficult to calculate the benefits you can get.

Not to mention anything else, as long as these merchants of the Land of Water have a little eyesight, they will definitely send a wave of gifts, just like those merchants of the Land of Fire.

The gifts he received in the port cities of the Fire Country alone are worth more than 30 billion, and if he harvests a wave in the Land of Water and the next Land of Thunder, he is estimated to become a billionaire like Mr. Li.

Of course, these luxury goods are not so easy to sell, a little less is nothing, the number will immediately plummet in value, and if you sell it forcibly, it is estimated that it can be sold for 10 billion, even if you burn high incense.

But is time a problem for his uncle?

Uncle is divided into 100 years to sell, there is no problem at all to sell a billion shares a year, and after a hundred years, the uncle will still be a billionaire.

"Mr. Li!"

Miaomu narrowed slightly, and Terumi understood that this was a key figure.

"Another purpose for me to come here in person this time is to sell the lease rights of this steel giant ship to other countries on behalf of Mr. Li, just like our Fire Chamber of Commerce to obtain the right to use the steel giant ship."

This is another purpose, or the main purpose, of Jiaodu coming here in person, after all, that Mr. Li is his current big boss, and the things ordered by the big boss naturally have to be done beautifully.

"I wonder how much the rental cost?"

Make eye contact with the representative of the Daimyo Mansion on the other side, and ask according to Terumi.

It is naturally best to lease that kind of steel giant ship directly, but I don't know what the price is, if the price is too high, there will not be much profit margin, and it may even lose money.

No one will do it if you buy it at a loss!

"Thirty percent, no matter how much you earn or how little you earn, the lease fee of the steel giant ship will be thirty percent of your income, and it will always be valid and will not change forever, this is Mr. Li's promise to us!"

Raising three fingers, the horn will say Li Wanji's promise, but it made the representative of Terumi Ming and the Daimyo Mansion who were sitting opposite frown again.

It's not that they're dissatisfied, it's not that the cost is too high, it's the opposite, it's too low.

Their estimated rental costs were 80 percent, or even 90 percent, of the profits.

After all, that kind of steel giant ship is exclusively made by the other party, and it means that there is no second one in the ninja world that can make it, anyway, their water country does not have that ability.

This is an absolute monopoly, and they can indeed refuse it when the time comes, but if they don't earn this money, others will come and earn it.

Rather than having foreign merchants dump all kinds of goods and goods into the Water Country at high prices and make money from the citizens of the Water Country, it is better for them to take charge of the matter.

But the rental fee of the 30% interest is too low, and there is not much profit at all if the cost is removed.

Is there such a fool in the world?

"You don't have to worry, Mr. Li's pattern is much bigger than you imagined, just some time ago, Mr. Li alone invested 100 billion to lay railways in the major cities of the entire Fire Country.

It was a new kind of transportation system, and the transportation efficiency was tens of thousands of times, or even more, that of ordinary ox carts and horse-drawn carts.

The steel giant ship was only built by Mr. Li for transportation, and he didn't think about using it to make money, as long as it can maintain the operation of the shipyard, you can rest assured. ”

seemed to see the doubts and concerns of the two of them, and Jiaodu opened his mouth to explain, and he also admired the pattern and courage of the big boss for this.

It may be possible to increase the lease fee and make a lot of money in a short time, but the major powers and the major ninja villages will never tolerate this kind of vicious exploitation, and will definitely imitate the steel giant ship and study their own steel giant ship.

With the background of the major countries and the major ninja villages, even if it is not as deep as Konoha comes, but if you really want to do everything you can, you can definitely get it, it's just a matter of time.

At that time, they will not have the ability to monopolize, and even make the competition in this area more and more fierce, which is a major obstacle to the expansion of the market.

And now reducing the lease fee to this extent can greatly reduce the dissatisfaction of the major powers, even if these people really imitate this kind of steel giant ship in the future, they can't also suppress the lease fee to the same level as them, right?

If you really want to do that kind of ironclad thing, you will definitely lose all your money, and no one will do this kind of loss-making business.

And as long as they can maintain the shipping market of steel giants, they can take the initiative in many things, and in the long run, they will make a fortune!

"100 billion!"

The representatives of Terumi and the Daimyo Mansion on the other side were shocked by this number, not to mention the Fog Hidden Village, and even the Daimyo's Mansion did not have so much money in the treasury, let alone use it for railway transportation.

Of course, it's not that the land of water has no money, but that the daimyo of the country of water has no money, and the money and resources are concentrated in the hands of those merchants and nobles, and it is impossible to get money from those people.

And personally, I haven't heard of anyone in the entire water country with assets of hundreds of billions, and most of the assets of those noble businessmen are some real estate and the like, no one will have so much cash, and it is an exaggeration to have 10 billion cash.

How could that guy be so rich?

When did such a character emerge in the ninja world?

Wait, isn't it......

"Some time ago, those fine jade carvings were all from Mr. Li's hands!"

As if she understood something, Zhao Meiming probably guessed where Mr. Li's huge amount of cash came from.

was reminded like this, and the representatives of the Daimyo Mansion on the other side also reacted.

Some time ago, a group of mysterious people appeared all over the land of water, peddling some fine jade carvings, and harvested tens of billions of cash in a short period of time.

By the time they could react, they had long since disappeared.

Obviously, the other party has mastered a technology that can mass-produce high-quality jade carvings, and once this technology appears, it will inevitably make the value of high-quality jade carvings plummet.

It's a pity that the other party obviously had a premeditated plan, and at the same time sold those fine jade carvings to the major merchants and nobles in the country, and completed the transaction before the price was reduced, and then disappeared mysteriously, ruthlessly pitting them.

After understanding this, the expressions of Terumi and the representatives of the Daimyo Mansion became unkind.
