Chapter 363: Watching
Since the turn of the year, the Furusugi family and Konoha Village have carried out several large-scale asset exchanges.
Needless to say, as a result, the absolute debt borne by Konoha Village has risen slightly, but most of the village's high-quality assets, especially the real estate in prime locations, have completely gotten rid of the shackles.
After the Konoha ninja took over, the operational efficiency decreased slightly, but the revenue increased.
It is foreseeable that within three years, the Konoha ninjas will also be under the pressure of huge interest, and after the debt crisis is eased, they will be able to get rid of the economic constraints of the Gusugi family to a certain extent.
Privately, many high-ranking officials in Konoha Village were very appreciative of Ape Fei Ri's gamble.
In order to repay the debt as soon as possible, he took the initiative to borrow more money and invest it in more profitable assets.
As long as Konoha Village is prosperous, this deal will make a lot of money in the long run.
Because the number is too huge, it is not only the high-level of Konoha Village who has contributed money and efforts, but also the ape Fei Ri himself, and several friendly ninja clans in the village have basically participated.
This is the largest action of the community of interests, for the autonomy of the Konoha ninjas, they have joined forces to squeeze the influence of the Kosugi family.
One is prosperous, one is lost!
It seems that sensing the change in the direction of the wind, the Gushan family's speed of "moving from real to virtual" in Konoha Village has accelerated a lot, and many real good things have been exchanged for various forms of debt, and packaged in the trading market and slowly sold off.
Although it is slow, it is steady, and anyone with a discerning eye can see it, except for the presence of the Gushan family in a few areas that are not the lifeblood, the original sense of déjà vu of foreign shadows everywhere is becoming more and more intense.
Food, clothing, housing, transportation, birth, old age, sickness and death, almost all of them are related to the business of the Gusugi family, which is also too embarrassing for the Konoha ninja.
After receiving the hint from Fusugi Bushui, Katsura Jiki also followed the plan and gradually contracted his presence in Konoha Village, withdrawing some of his properties and moving them into the nearby town of Shinjuku.
There seems to be a feeling that the Furusugi family is going to abandon Konoha Village and choose to develop Shinjuku Town.
Those who know, those who don't, keep their mouths shut about it.
As for the key figure in it, Gu Shanbushui, went straight back to Siqi Island and stared at the 21st "King of Fighters" challenge this year.
The "little things" that happened in Konoha Village didn't take it to heart at all.
"Did I tell you before? For me, it doesn't matter how much money I have, and I can instantly mobilize almost unlimited gold and silver to spend if I want to. None of this makes sense. The most important thing is to put Konoha Village on a heavier debt. ”
Debt is not only a shackle, but also a whip, urging debtors to work hard to make money to repay debts.
For Gu Shanbushui, money and capital are just tools, one of the killer tools for ninjas to use for themselves.
"The 'Konoha Spirit' and 'Will of Fire' in Konoha Village are very interesting, and their understanding of 'jade' is very different from before."
"Oh?"
Masakoto Furusugi, who was sitting next to his son and watching the duel in the ring, asked,
"Why didn't I realize it?"
"It's subtle, it's profound! This is a change that has only begun since the late reign of the Hokage's third generation, Sarutobi Hizaki. ”
"The fourth generation is dead, and the third generation is back out of the mountain?"
"That's right! The impact of the Nine-Tails attack on the Konoha ninja is definitely not measurable by how many people died or how many buildings were destroyed. Their morals and values have turned a corner because of this. ”
Gu Shanbu Shui whispered,
"Before that, the death of Konoha White Fang Hagi Sakumo was very typical. In order to save his companions, he abandoned the mission, which indirectly led to greater casualties. Hachiki Sakumo endured the blame of the whole village, and even his companions, who were saved by him, did not understand his choice. In the end, he rebelled and chose to commit suicide. Staying now, will this kind of behavior still be criticized by thousands of people? ”
There may still be people who think that what he did is wrong, but it will definitely not reach the point of driving people to death.
"It's a bit strange that a mercenary organization that claims to be a mission machine has begun to tap into the value of human nature."
"Not surprisingly, the discovery of 'man' is a landmark change. Ninjas began to see themselves as members of a normal human being, valuing bonds and elevating the symbolism of the lineage. Perhaps, at first, it was to emphasize some glorious tradition and leave the stereotype of 'Lao Tzu is a hero', but gradually, the situation has changed. Do you know what it means to think of 'jade' as a child and a descendant, in fact, is a disguised deepening of honor, history and self-awareness? ”
"A group with its own demands and powerful force was born."
"That's right! If it was the former Konoha Village, I wouldn't have calculated so them. A well-trained rabble is still a rabble, and there is nothing to worry about. Even if the Thousand Hands Pillar is resurrected, it's a big deal to wait for him to die of old age, and it won't threaten our position anyway. Now Konoha Village can't let down its vigilance......"
Within Konoha Village, there is a brewing trend of thought that is different from the orthodox claims of the daimyo and the Furusugi family, and is also different from the traditional order.
Civilian ninjas, the impact on the children of the ninja clan, the frequent occurrence of the lower and lower restraints, the humble Mohu, and the loss of awe for the stars and authority.
"There are some things that can't be suppressed."
Gu Shanbushui said to his old father who was in deep thought,
"However, this bursting force can't burst out from Konoha Village, it's best to be guided by the Gushan family, complete the reform from top to bottom, and then transform logically, otherwise it will ......"
The Daimyo and Furusugi families, who bear the brunt of the damage, will suffer serious losses.
"Are you scared?"
"It used to be a little, but now it's ......"
To tell the truth, what Gu Shanbu Shui is afraid of is that Konoha Village will develop on its own, and then complete its transformation and become an armed group with its own ideas that cannot be intervened.
Now, the ancient cedar water that almost stripped out the bud is not too worried.
Economically enslaved, spiritually divided, directed in a less dangerous direction.
Now, it seems to be close to success.
"What is the spirit of Konoha and the will of fire, it can't be decided by the three generations alone, Shimura Danzo is also a member of the big family, shouldn't he also be allowed to express his feelings? Or will Uchiha Sasuke have a different idea in the future? I see, Hyugata Hyuzu, the patriarch of the Hyuga family, doesn't seem to buy it very much. ”
Furusugi is honest.
"A strong Konoha Village is necessary, but it is not in our interest to be too united and monolithic. The daimyo has been doing the dividing thing, but the effect is not good. ”
"Wooing the ninja? Not very useful! If you can't unravel the relationship between the personal attachment of the Konoha ninja to Konoha Village, economic dependence and social identity, it is useless to win them over. You see, I have a very pleasant cooperation with the Shimura Danzo, the Inuzuka clan, the oil girl clan, the Nara clan, and the Kurama clan, but only the Kurama family maintains a relatively neutral attitude, and the rest, once the Sarutobi is called, immediately contribute money and efforts, and don't ask our opinions. ”
Pull is to pull together, the previous way of painting cakes for money and fame is too primitive.
The fortresses were all breached from the inside, and Konoha Village itself was not chaotic, and outsiders had no chance to interfere if they wanted to.
How to expose the hidden internal contradictions of Konoha Village?
Of course, it is the economic crisis, that is, there is a problem in the field of money, and there is a conflict of interests or unfair distribution, which is a good opportunity for Gu Shanbu to get his hands on it.
While the two were chatting, the rematch below was finally over.
There were no particularly famous players participating this year, and Inuzuka Ya, Shino and Uzami, who had been here last year, also participated in the all-age competition, and after a lot of hardships and hardships, they did not make it to the final 24 and missed the finals.
The average strength of the contestants is steadily increasing every year, which is a great thing for Gu Shanbushui.
This means that the strength of the "Fighters League" will rise by a large margin.
The benefits of controlling this "non-governmental organization" to the Gusugi family are self-evident.
A lot of things that are inconvenient to come forward can be done by a martial artist.
In the bustling crowd, Hiiragi, whose eyes were shining, took the hands of his two younger sisters, squeezed to the front with difficulty, and said to his two younger sisters after watching the competition of the participating martial artists.
"In a few years, let's go too, okay? Like my sister, defeat strong enemies one by one and win the victory. ”
"Isn't it too difficult?"
After Xiao Si heard this, he immediately wanted to retreat, Xiao Jing was a little moved, but he didn't want to make a decision like this.
"I'm telling you quietly that we're going to school next year."
"Is it going to Konoha Village? Didn't you say that if you weren't a ninja, you wouldn't have to go to school? ”
Xiao Si muttered unhappily.
The little one doesn't want to leave home to go to school, so he wants to stay at home and play.
"I used to think the same way, but once I secretly heard that if you are not a ninja, you have to go to school, but the things you learn are a little different."
"I don't want to go either!"
Xiaojing responded with some hesitation,
"By the time we go to school, my sister has graduated."
"So where are we going, Inaba Academy? It's very strict there, and you can't go home on weekdays! ”
At the mention of this, the three little ones were even more unhappy.
"However, my father's intention seems to be to let us go to the Inaba School or the Konoha Village Ninja School."
When I went to Konoha Village, it was also difficult to return to Shiqi Island, and at the end of the year, I only got together with my parents two or three times, and the only advantage was that I was closer to my sister Xiang Phosphorus.
Inhata Gakudo is relatively close, and although it is a dormitory system on weekdays, you can take a liner home on weekends and at the end of the month.
"It would be nice if my father taught me at home, or I could hire a tutor!"
As soon as he thought of this troublesome matter, Xiao Hiiragi had some doubts.
As the years change from small to big, the little guy's inner troubles also increase.
-----------------
In Konoha Village, Shimura Danzou looked at the information obtained by his subordinates, and couldn't help but be angry.
"Stupid, if you're so greedy, aren't you afraid of others setting up tricks!"
has always shown a calm face.,The "darkness of the ninja world", which rarely shows emotions, is a little unbearable this time.
"I've hinted so many times, don't let the Gushan family run away, and you're still in such a hurry to buy, buy, are you afraid that others won't be fast enough?"
The details of the "Konoha Collapse Plan" Shimura Danzou did not know, but it did not prevent him from guessing that Orochimaru was hooking up with Sand Hidden Village and preparing to calculate Konoha Village.
Once the Nine-Tails attack on the village happens again, or a tragedy similar to the night of the Uchiha's extermination, how will it end in the end?
Although Shimura believes that things outside of the body are not very important, it does not prevent money from playing a variety of roles.
In vain, the Gushan family will be untied and connected, and once it really suffers a major loss, it will still have to suffer by itself.
Natural disasters and man-made disasters, seeking more blessings for themselves, whether they lose or earn, and are willing to gamble and lose.
In any case, as long as it is exchanged for a circulating bond, it will be difficult for Konoha Village to use the excuse of force majeure to repay its debts.
Although he didn't know how much loss he would suffer next year, Shimura Tunzo instinctively felt that the ancient Shanbu Shui, who had accelerated the evacuation at this time, definitely did not take the initiative to retreat for the sake of Sarutobi's face.
Of course, the current Shimura Tunzang did not dare to turn his face.
Pressing his chest, Shimura took out a tube of potion from his arms, drank it in one gulp, put a few pills in his mouth, chewed them and swallowed them.
For a while, the value of the medicinal herbs that were eaten made the "Darkness of the Ninja World" a little painful.
But these have to be used again.
Without the power of the yin attribute of the chakra to balance the yang attribute of the first generation of cells, Shimura Danzou had to maintain the balance of the body by ingesting it from the outside.
The point is that these precious potions are extremely difficult to buy in the outside world, and if it weren't for the transaction with Gushan Bushui, it would not be easy for Shimura Danzou to get too much.
Some things that are not too important, Shimura Danzo has no choice but to turn a blind eye.
If you offend Gu Shanbushui and the other party doesn't send the potion, Shimura Danzo's body won't last long.
Seeing Sarutobi make a big mistake, but the feeling of being powerless made Shimura Tunzo very tormented.
It's just that think about it from another angle.
The incumbent Hokage's decision-making caused the village to suffer heavy losses, doesn't it show in disguise that his ability is not good?
At this time, it is much less difficult to force the palace to step down.
Shimura Danzo, who was thinking about the pros and cons, probably didn't expect that Sarutobi would die directly in battle, and the village would also suffer a tragic loss.
Underestimating the threat of Orochimaru and the Sand Hidden Village joining forces is also the result of Shimura Danzo's arrogance.
On the other side, Inuzuka and his party, who returned home, were still appreciated by the school teachers.
Judging from the performance of several people in the actual combat class, the children who have experienced the baptism of the "King of Fighting" all-age competition have been greatly improved.
Like Kao Pho and Uchiha Sasuke, it takes both strength and luck to get through all the way and win.
Anyway, the strength of Inuzuka and Shino Oil Girl is still a lot worse.
As for Yu Zuomei, she seems to get along well with most of her classmates, but in fact, her sense of presence is not very high, and almost no one knows how much strength she has played in the past two years.
