In the land of snow and ice all year round, the daylight hours are always very short. After Konoha's ninjas took over the autonomous convoy, nothing dangerous happened, and Yukishinobi never reappeared.

After Kakashi found a place for the convoy to camp before nightfall, he took the initiative to find Kosuke Maruse.

"Senior, is it too much for Xiang Fenghua Xiaoxue to promise that we will kill all the snow ninjas?"

Kosuke Marushi was cooking the snow venison he had just hunted in an iron pot that he often carried, "Which aspect do you mean?" ”

"This decision could push this relatively peaceful country to hell."

Kakashi has been a shinobi for many years, and has carried out missions large and small in major countries. There is a big gap between countries with ninja villages and those without ninja villages, and even if there is a small ninja village, it is a threat to those who are not so powerful rebels.

And a country that doesn't even have a small ninja village will become a paradise for wandering samurai and rebel ninjas. As long as they don't hurt the Daimyo, they can do the rest.

This day is much more nourishing than the precarious life before.

"But what does it matter to us Konoha?" Marushi Kosuke said unhurriedly adding some spices to the pot.

Kakashi was silent for a long time before replying. "A chaotic country, the mission market will languish."

"But rich people will also choose to leave, maybe in terms of tasks, it is indeed not as sufficient as a peaceful country, but the departure of rich people is also another kind of task.

Do you say that the rich people of the Land of Snow will go to the Land of Water or the Land of Fire when they leave?

It will be the land of fire, right, with flat terrain, excellent climate and convenient transportation.

This is the best choice when you have to relocate.

When they come to the Land of Fire, won't this task still give us Konoha? There are even wealthy people who may settle directly in Konoha. Tasks are lucrative, but the corners of life should not be underestimated. ”

Compared to a new elite shinobi like Kakashi, Kosuke Maru still has some deeper considerations. The reason why various major countries invariably regard the surrounding small countries as battlefields is that small countries are not allowed to have the opportunity to rise. Second, if a small country is destroyed, the rich people and people of the small country will migrate.

Land is a precious resource, but a land without people is worthless.

Sometimes it's better to keep a small country market than to smash it up and bring the people who really pay for the market to the land of fire who ask ninjas to do tasks.

Kosuke Marushi took the initiative to clip a piece of cooked meat to Kakashi, "Don't you see that there are a few small countries around Konoha that don't have a ninja village, but they are also alive and well?" ”

"That's because they're close to Konoha...... If something happens in a country like Snow Country, it will take 10 days and half a month for the mainland to get the news. It's still different, senior. ”

"So, Kakashi." Kosuke Maruki added. "The market in the Land of Snow cannot be compared to the market in the small countries surrounding the Land of Fire.

It's good to have a long stream of water, but it's also good to tear down the shelves and eat some meat. ”

Kosuke Maruki pulled out a bowl out of nowhere, filled it with some broth and handed it to Kakashi.

"We are the ninjas of Konoha and represent the interests of the Fire Nation. If the future Daimyo would make us do such a thing, why not? ”

And in the center of the convoy, Fenghua Xiaoxue, who had been hungry for two days, grabbed Ning Ci while eating and asked what to do next.

"First of all, you have to make sure that you really don't care about the identity of this daimyo."

Hinata Ninji looked around with open eyes, and said after making sure that Kakashi and Maruki Kosuke were eating in the distance.

"Rather than becoming a Daimyo of Snow Country, I would rather become a well-known female star, using my real name instead of using the pseudonym painted by Fuji Kazeyuki.

The premise is to complete revenge. Whether it's for my father or the third wife. After that, I hope to make life as good as possible for the people of Snow Country. ”

Hinata Ninji nodded, this is a very true answer. First fulfill your heart's desire, and then benefit all people.

"So you should also know very well that after killing all the snow ninjas, you don't have any of your subordinates to call on."

Fenghua Xiaoxue snorted.

"So instead of spending a lot of effort to collect heavy taxes and rebuild a small ninja village that is completely at your disposal, I have one more suggestion here.

Why don't you outsource taxes and national security alongside? ”

"What do you mean?" Fenghua Xiaoxue asked.

"As far as I know, you daimyo collect taxes, and you don't collect them yourself. You are also asking your retainers to collect from each village, from village to village, from town to town.

Your problem now is that when you become a daimyo, you don't have a trusted retainer to collect taxes for you. You also don't have the strength to guarantee that he can bring up the taxes.

So why don't you hire powerful people to protect your country like you hire ninjas, and in exchange you give him the power to collect taxes. ”

"And what if he sets the tax rate very high?"

"That's when people will remember your name, and that's when people will need you. The most important thing is that even if the tax rate was high at that time, the notoriety of extortion will not fall on your head.

You don't have to be like many small daimyos, who work hard to get down on the people's side, collect the money, and hand it over to the ninja village.

You have to know that most of the time it is the people who think you take too much, and the ninja village thinks that you give less, so you might as well jump out of this dead circle and let them talk directly. ”

"How do I think I'm selling this country now...," said Kazeka Xiaoxue.

"The question is, have you ever really owned the country? Suppose that after your uncle's death, Konoha put you in the position of a daimyo and the Fire Nation recognized you.

And then, do you own the country? Don't you still want to be recognized by the people?

Small villages want to be free of bandits in their surroundings, and large towns want trade routes to be unobstructed.

It takes ninjas.

In the past, they would pay a tax to you, and then cut out the money they had left over and hire ninjas to do the work.

You now use most of the taxes they hand over to you as a bounty for tasks. It's a task that may not be particularly cost-effective, but it wins every year and is valid for a long time.

There will definitely be ninjas and even ninja villages who are willing to take on such a mission.

This way, you don't have to run the country, you can do what you want to do with confidence, and you can get a small amount of taxes from the snow country every year.

People also don't have to squeeze money out of their own savings to post tasks.

It's just that you may be notorious for being set aside, so you still have to decide for yourself. In fact, Hinata's words still contain his views on this era. This is a time when ninjas followed the cloak of the daimyo and sucked the blood of all ordinary people.

However, there is a daimyo as a buffer between ordinary people and ninjas.

It's like ordinary people pay taxes to the daimyo, and the daimyo pay taxes to the ninja village. Ordinary people will only resent the daimyo for taking too much, and they can't imagine that it is the ninja who really takes the money from their pockets.

If you want to change this, if you want to change the world, you must first let the ninja really enter the political arena.

They can't eat the biggest cake in the world, but they don't have any responsibility at all.

Is peace really just something for the daimyo to think about? Is nation-building really just something for ordinary people to think about?

As the most powerful ninjas in the world, what did they really contribute?

"Do you have a good person to recommend?"

"Have you ever heard of an organization called Akatsuki? They are peace-loving. ”
