Chapter 17: The Second Harvest (Asking for Votes)
After coming to the Hokage's office, except for Tsunade, there were still three people, Sarutobi Hizashi, Koharu and Mito Menyan.
"Karnsang, I took the liberty of inviting you here, I really have something to discuss with you."
Sarutobi's tone was very polite, but there was no way, Konoha didn't have so many medical ninjas, and if he wanted to save the lives of the wounded, he had to have Karn's medicine; It turned out that with Kahn's medicine, the survival rate of the wounded increased by fifty or sixty percent.
With this effect, Konoha can preserve its vitality in the war and avoid heavy casualties.
"I understand what the three generations of Hokage mean, but I can't decide on credit, in fact, I paid a sum of money for the medicine last time, if I can't collect the funds this time, I won't be able to sell medicine to your village in the future, and the other party will probably find someone else."
Karn reluctantly said to Ape Flying Sun that instead of listening to them go around in circles, he should just make his words clear.
Credit and the price of the medicine are the bottom line, these two points are absolutely impossible, even if it is collateral with something, otherwise Karn would rather end the transaction between the two parties; This is the bottom line, if the bottom line can be easily broken, then the other party will have to inch in.
So Sarutobi doesn't need to say anything about how pitiful and hard the Konoha ninja is, no matter how pitiful it is, it's not to protect him.
Ape Fei Ri sighed in his heart, and then asked with a reluctant smile, "That.. What kind of items do you accept as collateral? ”
Now it's a seller's market, and Konoha Village has no choice but to choose to tear his face and attack Karn, but Sarutobi has been followed by the shadows several times, and he has never learned how Karn's family transported the medicine, and Karn can mysteriously disappear, which also makes Sarutobi Hiza slow to do it.
Although Karn was an ordinary person without chakra, maybe he had a sealing technique in his brain, and if he didn't get anything from him, then the medicine could end up in other ninja villages.
"If you don't have money, jewelry, jade, gold jewelry, or utensils that are more than a few hundred years old can be, but the pricing power is mine, of course, I will not deliberately lower the price."
When Karn said the last sentence, Koharu's face was a little unpleasant, and she felt that Karn was referring to her because she had paid a high price for several houses last time.
"Or you can use the mission as collateral, I'm going to talk about some business elsewhere in the Fire Nation recently, and I need some guards by my side."
As for the guns in Karn's backpack, although they can protect themselves at some point, they are still a bit dangerous if they encounter a ninja sneak attack.
Mito Menyan suddenly asked, "Can you trade with a ninjutsu scroll?" There are still a lot of ninjutsu collected in Konoha. ”
"Ninjutsu?" After hearing this, Karn shook his head decisively and refused, "Forget it, Elder Mitomon, I'm not a ninja, and the ninjutsu scroll doesn't have as much appeal to me as a best-selling novel." ”
"Well, that's a shame.."
After Mito Menyan said this, he stopped talking.
After Mito Menyan and Koharu stopped talking, Sarutobi said to Karn: "Then Karn-san, the number of medicines that Konoha wants this time is still the same as last time, and we will show you the list of items corresponding to the bid later." ”
"No problem, three generations of Hokage."
Karn was led out of the Hokage building by a shadow minister, and the medicines were stored in the warehouse behind Karn's food store, except for some outside medicines to be placed in the drugstore, and the rest was just enough for Konoha to need.
In the afternoon, Karn had just finished eating when he was once again invited to the Hokage building by Konoha Shadows, and this time instead of going to the Hokage's office, he was taken to another house.
There was only one person in the house, and when I thought about it, the Hokage had a lot of things to deal with in a day, and it was impossible to waste all his time on medicine.
"Kahnsang, please check, here's the list."
With that, Mito handed Karn a list of transactions, and then gestured to the box on the table.
Forty kilograms of gold, one hundred jewels, one box of ornaments, and more than thirty pieces of antique utensils.
Karn knew that these were 'antiques' with a long tradition when he saw the more haphazard ones at the end, but he checked with Mito Menyan and the answer he got was that they were definitely long-lasting, and there weren't many of them even in Konoha.
At least five hundred years ago, according to the records of the Thousand Hands; Mito Menyan didn't hide anything, these were all contributed by the Thousand Hands clan, for ninjas, in addition to the relatively long inheritance, it was a bowl from before, in addition to the recorded patterns were a little richer.
However, Mito Menyan still habitually set a high price for these 'antiques' in their opinion, but this high price is calculated according to the utensils, and the high price makes Karn feel a little funny, but Karn is relieved to think that the ninja world may not have the habit of playing with antiques.
Bringing these things back with the slogan of inheritance and mystery should be able to deduct millions of dollars from the Japanese.
In addition to gold, Karn looked at gemstones and the like.
There wasn't much of a problem with the gems, at least in Karn's eyes, and Konoha Village shouldn't have much of a counterfeit ability; Karn removed some of the gems that were not in good condition and had cracks, which made Mito Menyan on the side a little embarrassed, and he secretly complained in his heart that he had turned to Koharu, since they were all traded in a unified manner, don't put these in.
Luckily Karn didn't say anything, otherwise he would have been disgraced by Mito Menyan.
As for the other box, which contained very valuable-looking ornaments, Karn opened them and looked at them, and was sure that they were mostly genuine, as two of them had not yet been cleaned and were stained with blood.
Karn took the two bloodstained ornaments and looked at Mito Menyan, and Mito Menyan turned his head to look in other directions, as if looking at the corners of the house that should be repaired, but Mito Menyan scolded Danzo in his heart, and it was a shame that he didn't deal with the things he had snatched back from the roots.
"Except for the one I just picked out, that's probably it, Elder Mitomon."
Karn checked that it was correct, then turned to Mito Menyan and said, as for the things he didn't want just now, he would definitely use the house to compensate for it in the end, and the most important thing in Konoha was probably the house, and once it was not enough to live, it would be expanded.
"Now there's the amount of money for the task..."
Mito Menyan nodded, and said to Karn, "Let's discuss this matter with the mission team, there is a more detailed mission assessment there." ”
In terms of the items traded, Sarutobi can condone Koharu to do some tricks, but the task is Konoha's reputation to the outside world, whether it is Sarutobi or Mito Menyan, no one else is allowed to do anything on the task.
