Chapter 2: A New Life

A week after coming to Konoha Village to live, Shizuka's family was arranged in a small wooden house, which was simple but enough as a temporary place to stay to meet the needs of Shizuka's family.

The room is a two-bedroom apartment, a bedroom and a guest kitchen, and a toilet.

The house as a whole is a simple wooden house with chimneys and pyres outside, and a stone-paved road that extends from the doorway to the dirt road of the main road.

Shizuka's neighbor is a special family, they are all orphans, and it stands to reason that they should be sent to an orphanage, but some children are reluctant to go to an orphanage, so they temporarily look for older people in the crowd to form a new family.

This kind of family rebuilding in order not to go to an orphanage is called a "new family".

And the newcomer family who lives next to Shizuka's house is like this, one is a seven or eight-year-old boy named Yahiko, and the other is a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl Murasaki.

Yahiko is a boy with an orange hedgehog head, babbling, and a cheerful personality. When he has nothing to do, he likes to run to Xiao Nan to play, and he is very active, just because he is naughty and is always beaten by his sister Zi.

Compared with her cheerful younger brother, her sister Purple is much more stable, and she was confirmed to be able to join the military school as soon as she came to Konoha for further study, and her father seems to be a rain ninja.

However, Purple's parents both died in the battle with Yun Shinobi, so after being immigrated, he formed a new family with Yahiko, who was also an orphan.

After the two formed a new family, they became a family, so they took the same surname "Yakumo".

Today is Konoha health check-up day, and Yakumo's family comes to Shizuka's house, thinking about going to the hospital for a health check-up together.

Yakumo and Shizuka's family went to the hospital together, followed the stone road to the main road of loess, and advanced from north to south.

Along the way, many oncoming horse-drawn carriages dragged carts of timber to the new town, and you can also see groups of farmers talking and laughing towards the suburban development area.

Shizune looked at the distant back, those people were all immigrants of Yun Shinobi, and the man was given the task of opening up the field, which was a direct order from the top of Konoha .

The goal is to increase the existing cultivated area of Konoha several times by next spring.

On the second day after settling in Konoha, the Konoha ninjas arranged a simple chakra test to enter the military school for further study if they met the standard.

According to Konoha Ninja, those who failed the test in the past can now also study in military schools, but they can no longer be ninjas in the battle sequence, but as ninjas in the life sequence.

The battle sequence refers to a professional army that fights and completes missions for a living, and this type of ninja has a higher and better welfare system, and can also participate in advanced training at the Konoha Military Academy.

The welfare standard of the life sequence is lower, and it cannot be used as a combat ninja, but more as a support ninja for daily life.

For example, the house where Shizuka and the others live has a total of 800 newly built wooden houses, which will take at least two or three months to complete with ordinary manpower.

However, if it was left to the life ninjas, it only took more than half a month for less than 100 life ninjas to create them.

These Xiao Lu are really much higher than ordinary people, which can not only increase the efficiency of construction and farming, but also avoid being sent to the battlefield as cannon fodder.

….

Therefore, in Konoha Village, life ninjas are not only not discriminated against, but are welcomed by most people, because this profession is not only within reach, but also very easy to achieve.

There are now more than 1,000 students in the military school, and more than 700 of them are lifestyle ninjas, who can choose their future careers while they are in school.

Life ninjas can work as blacksmiths, carpenters, craftsmen, gardeners, postmen, and even four generations of Hokage's innovative delivery guys...

Of course, those who are prominent in a certain aspect, such as fire attributes and thunder attributes, can be used as reserves with strong perception ability, and generally these people will be incorporated into the city patrol team, that is, the external personnel of the Konoha garrison.

With the four generations of Hokage dividing the various occupations and functions in the village in detail, all types of jobs are now in dire demand

Live Ninja Filling.

It can be said that there is a shortage of people everywhere in Konoha Village, and finding a job is not a problem at all.

"Speaking of which, Sister Shizuka, what kind of job did you get in the hospital?"

"Nurse, I used to be a nurse at Rain Ninja Hospital, but now I'm back to my old job."

Shizuka showed a hint of a smile, she really didn't expect that she would be able to go in, after all, places like hospitals and schools often give priority to locals, but the four generations of Hokage ordered that they be treated equally.

The order of the four generations is simple: if the local population is already one level higher than the immigrants in the welfare system, then it must be treated equally in other aspects.

This is not only a symbol of Konoha's fairness and justice to foreign immigrants, but more importantly, it can appease the newcomers, accommodate the people's hearts, and lay a solid foundation for Konoha to be strong.

Shizuka's entry into Konoha Hospital is the cash and implementation of this policy, and now Shizuka can not only enjoy the various benefits of the hospital, but also receive a large salary every month, at least it is definitely enough for her and Xiaonan to live.

"Now that I have a job and income, you can rest assured that you can study in the military school, and in addition to the village's subsidy every month, our two families will eat and live together, so it is the right way to help each other."

「…… Hey, then trouble Sister Shizuka, when I graduate from the military school, I will definitely repay you for taking care of our sister and brother."

"Hehehe, then I'm looking forward to it."

Shizuka let out a chuckle, she never wanted anything in return from Yakumo Murasaki, she just hoped that in Konoha Village, there would be a few more friends who could be really good to Xiao Nan.

As a mother, her biggest wish now is to let Xiao Nan grow up well, grow up healthily, and then find a good family to marry.

"Speaking of which, how are your school assessments?"

Yakumo replied, "I have already passed the preliminary exam, and they said that with my strength, I can directly go to the intermediate class to study, so that I can graduate as Konoha Chushinobi in a year and a half at most, and then I will be able to perform tasks and earn honorarium."

"In this way, it seems that Konoha Village is really as he said, as long as you come here, you will be sincerely received, and we immigrants don't need to think too much, as long as we contribute to the village, we are one of them."

"Looking back now, the anxiety and anxiety we had when we first arrived here are now gone. In addition to us, the other immigrants have also found their own jobs and homes, and the whole process has been surprisingly smooth."

….

Yakumo: "That's because this village has strong executive power and a clear-headed leader. The most important thing is that every order is absolutely enforced, and this must be done by a leader with great authority and absolute control over the village."

"Actually, the Rain Ninja Village also has the same potential, but our demigods can't beat the true gods of Konoha after all, and what happened that day makes me tremble when I think about it now."

A trace of fear appeared on Yakumo's face, her hands unconsciously clenched her arms, and her face was pale as she recalled the apocalyptic scene of that day.

A huge meteorite floating over the entire city emitted a devastating light like the sun, smashing straight into the earth.

Is that really the power that humans should have? That genius power not only completely destroyed the courage of the fish-people to resist, but also convinced all the people of the Rain Country.

No matter what Konoha Village did to them, it was difficult for them to rise up the mind of rebellion, because what happened that day, that feeling of utter despair and powerlessness, had been deeply rooted in their souls.

When they arrived at the gate of the hospital, Minami and Yahiko said that they were going to play with Nagato, and Nagato was the child of the Uzumaki family who followed them to Konoha along the way.

Although Konoha Village gave her a great sense of security, Shizuka was still a little uneasy, but she couldn't stand Xiao Nan's pitiful pleading, so she still agreed.

After completing the basic tests at the hospital, Konan and Yahiko ran to find Nagato, and Hachishi had to go to the military school to report.

That's it.,It was originally a group of four people to go to the hospital.,When I came back, only Shizuka was left.

Personally.

Shizuka walked through Konoha's prosperous commercial streets, and in the distance saw the central building towering in the center of the village, all painted red with white trim, and the top of the towering tower was the highest power center of Konoha.

It was the central nervous system that issued all the orders that decided the path of the village, and on the opposite side of the building was the Uchiha garrison.

Passing through the gate of the garrison, you can see the members wearing the uniforms of the garrison coming and going, and the garrison is mainly responsible for the daily affairs of the village, including security checks and criminal investigations, similar to the current police station.

Shizuka took a deep breath and walked briskly past the entrance of the police station, continuing to walk forward, and could see a commercial street that was expanding.

The extension of the street meant that business activities flourished, and it is said that some of the stalls were reserved for immigrants to further promote harmony and integration within the village.

A few steps further on, you will see a five-story office building with a white exterior with a huge plaque that reads Konoha Immigration Office.

Opposite the Immigration Bureau is the newly established Logistics Support Bureau, and Konoha has established 12 new departments in almost a year, and all of them have invested a lot of money and personnel to ensure that all of Konoha's potential can be fully realized.

If you continue on, you will leave the thriving commercial streets and come to an uncultivated wasteland, where even the roads are newly built loess roads, with no street lights and no electrical appliances, and it is still in the primitive development stage.

And a large number of immigrants gathered here, they are responsible for cultivating this uncultivated land with shovels and hoes, planting, turning the soil, and fertile, and it probably takes nearly half a year to grow food in the real sense.

….

Konoha Village has promised that all the land that is cultivated will eventually be allocated to the immigrants to be responsible for planting, and in addition to paying 30% of the annual tax and food, the remaining 70% can be kept for their own use.

And if the people want, they can sell the grain directly to the Konoha government as a strategic reserve grain.

Or through the official channels of Konoha, the grain is transported to other places for sale, and the proceeds will go to the government at 67% and the people at 33%.

Among them, the people are responsible for providing food, while the Konoha official provides channels and ninja escorts.

Although the proportion of officials is relatively large, it is actually cheaper considering factors such as logistics and transportation, as well as escorts.

Moreover, for the immigrants of the Land of Rain, Konoha's policy is already a conscience in their conscience, not to mention that the 70% self-retained food tax alone is enough for them to be grateful to Dade.

You know, when they were in the Land of Rain, 80% of all their income was handed over to the official Daimyo's mansion, and the remaining 20% of the trough grain belonged to them.

In addition, the country of rain has rains all year round and floods, and the number of people who die in wars every year is less than 3/5 of the number of people who die of starvation and family destruction every year.

Under the clear sky, the immigrants of the Land of Rain chanted slogans, wielded hoes and sweat, and sweated through the pristine fields.

They face the loess with their backs to the sky, although they are hard, but their faces are filled with longing and expectation for the future, today's hard work is tomorrow's happiness.

It just so happened that at this time, Yue Yong was patrolling the village to this area, and it was said that since Kaguya quietly ran out of the village, the practice in the village basically fell on Yue Yong, and Yue Yong threw out part of the government affairs and handed them over to the secretariat.

Yue Yong saw Mute from afar, thinking that she seemed to be the woman who Kaguya said to be more, so as not to be targeted and used by a certain pool of black mud?

Kaguya didn't say exactly what the black mud was, only said that he should pay attention to Nagato, Konan, Yahiko and the people around him, and wait for him to come back to make specific arrangements.

"Hey, are you Asuka Shizuka?"

Yue Yong glanced around, and sure enough, she found several shadows lurking around, she didn't know why Kaguya cared so much about these people, but Kaguya must have her own reasons.

Shizuka turned her head when she heard the sound, and happened to see that she was wearing a robe of the gods, and there was one on her chest

A girl with a fire badge, she has short black hair, sharp eyes, and a natural arrogance in her speech.

She just stood there, the air seemed to tense, and the sounds around her became quieter, which made people feel nervous and frightened, and it took a lot of courage to even look up into her eyes.

"Four, four generations."

"Well, what are you doing here?"

Yue Yong did not shy away from his identity, he nodded slightly, signaling that Shizuka could raise her head and talk to herself.

"Go back, go home... Your Excellency."

Shizuka lowered her head nervously, she didn't dare to really look up at each other, those eyes were so sharp that even her own soul could be seen through.

Yueyong: "... That's a good point."

Yueyong's demeanor softened a little, because Shizuka said "go home", which shows that she did not reject Konoha in her heart, and she accepted it faintly. It also shows that Kaguya's original Huairou policy was right.

Yue Yong asked softly, "Have you encountered anyone to embarrass you?"

Shizuka shook her head lightly and said, "The village takes good care of us, we haven't encountered any deliberate difficulties, and everyone is very kind."

"Do you have any grievances about your current living conditions, or do you want to give advice?"

"In fact, we have a shelter from the wind and rain, and we can eat a full meal every day, and we are very satisfied."

"Why?"

"Because we are all people who have experienced hardships, we have a place to live, we can have something to eat, in fact, we are so satisfied that we dare not expect anything else."

"Do you have any expectations for the future of Konoha?"

Shizuka thought for a moment, then smiled, "If you have anything to look forward to, I hope that my daughter can grow up happily, and find a handsome and handsome guy to marry in the future, and live happily here in the future."

Yueyong looked at Shizuka, who had a longing expression on her face, and suddenly thought that she and Kaguya seemed to be going to get married sooner or later.

「…… Yes."

Yue Yong smiled and nodded.

After chatting with Shizuka for a few more words, Yue Yong turned around and left.

In the future, she will often come here to see the thoughts of these new immigrants, and it is also interesting to look at a barren land, from uninhabited to thousands of acres of fertile land.
