Chapter 59: Preparing to Rebuild the Shadows
However, Ayaten's reply did not reassure the Yuan Master.
After thinking for a moment, he continued:
"I don't know if you have considered the question of whether you have considered it, because of the previous war, the village is now short of supplies and in ruins.
"The most ordinary daily necessities are not a big problem, but some of them rely on imported goods and luxury goods, and there is not much left in the village.
"When the time comes, the upper shinobi and the special upper shinobi, who have received a huge amount of money, can only buy the goods they want at a high price from the merchants who come and go.
"Isn't that the money being earned by outsiders?"
Hearing this, Ayatian raised his eyebrows, touched his chin and said, "I ignored this, this is indeed a problem." ”
As we all know, the land of water is an island, and the resources are already scarce, coupled with the long-term lockdown policy, the production capacity is relatively backward.
Ordinary everyday necessities are fine, and the land of water can produce them by itself.
But higher-tech goods, such as electrical appliances, need to rely on imports.
Due to the war, the import and export trade of Wuyin Village has stopped for half a year, and now those imported goods are rare in the village.
Although the village has now reopened to foreign trade, it is currently a small caravan with a limited number of goods.
When the existing goods in the village were sold, the villagers had to find caravans to buy them.
Scarcity is expensive, and when those businessmen raise the price again, they don't know how much money they have to make.
Ayaten, a merchant in the Land of Water, can also press the identity of the water shadow to make them not increase the price.
But those merchants from other countries, he is really not easy to deal with.
If it is not done well, it will affect the reputation and image of Wuyin Village, which is not conducive to future development.
The easiest way to deal with it is to delay the time of sending the money and wait for the material reserves of Wuyin Village to return to normal.
Merchants would then be able to sell their goods at normal prices.
However, the matter of this payment has already been said, and if it is delayed for too long, I am afraid that it will damage his image.
Alas, carelessly, before deciding to send money, you should have an in-depth understanding of the people's feelings. ’
Since succeeding Mizukage, Ayaten has been busy cleaning up the mess left by Madara, and has not had time to understand the livelihood of the people in the village.
That's when something went wrong.
After all, it's the first time to be a leader, so it's a lesson.
But fortunately, it was discovered early, and now the money has not started to be sent, and everything is still in time.
After thinking for a moment, Ayaten quickly came up with a solution.
He looked up at Terumi who was sitting on the other side of the office and asked:
"Uncle, you have a lot of contact with the ninjas below, do you know what they will buy when they get the money?"
Terumi nodded and said:
"I know some, after they get the money, most of them will go to buy weapons such as detonators, kunai, shuriken and so on.
"There is definitely no shortage of these things in the village, but you can rest assured.
"The rest of the money, if it is a middle or lower ninja, is generally used to improve the standard of living, such as clothes, food, etc., and those who have more money may consider buying some household appliances, such as TVs and refrigerators.
"As for the upper ninja or the special upper ninja, it is possible to use this money to get married, buy a house, or buy luxury goods.
"With the current situation in the village, products that need to be imported such as household appliances should be a big problem."
Ayatian thought for a moment and replied, "Well, I know, Elder Yuanshi, can I trouble you with something?" ”
"What's the matter?" Yuan Shi said curiously.
Ayaten picked up the pen and wrote a few simple paragraphs on the paper in front of him, then handed the paper to the Yuan Master, and at the same time said:
"Please send someone to collect what the ninjas in the village need, what goods you plan to buy after taking the money, don't worry about ordinary goods, just count expensive goods."
Yuan Shi took the paper and wondered, "What's the purpose of collecting this?" ”
Ayatian smiled: "When you finish counting, I will personally go to other countries to buy goods, so that there will be no problems." ”
Yes, Ayaten's approach was very simple and crude.
Since Wuyin Village is out of stock, it won't be over if he goes to buy the goods in person.
This not only solves the hassle, but also saves a lot of money.
You must know that in the ninja world, the transportation of finished products is not ordinarily high.
In order to ensure the safety of life and property, caravans usually hire ninjas to protect them all the way, and this employment fee alone requires a lot of money.
Coupled with the tariffs that need to be paid in and out of various countries, the final goods that are shipped in the fog can be several times the price of the original.
And Ayaten went to buy the goods in person, so she could save this money.
As for how to transport it, it was with the help of his "corpse veins" at that time.
Through the undersea tunnel, he can travel back and forth between the Fog Hidden Village and the Fire Country in an instant.
Combined with his flying ability, if it goes well, the purchase can be completed within a day, and customs duties can be waived.
It's a pity that he doesn't want to be a courier.
As for whether the dignified Mizukage is ashamed to do this kind of thing, he doesn't have to care about it.
Now that nothing has developed in the village, he has this ability, and he should contribute a little more.
When the village prospers later, he will be able to be the shopkeeper.
And this time it was he who made his own mistakes, and he made his own mistakes and cleaned them up.
When they heard that Ayaten was going to buy the goods in person, both Yuanshi and Terumi couldn't help but be surprised.
"You're a Mizukage now! Is it inappropriate to do this kind of thing yourself? ”
"As Mizukage, you can't just leave the village, what if an enemy invades the village while you're not there?"
Ayaten waved her hand:
"Don't worry, I'm very fast and I'll be back in the village in less than a day.
"And before leaving, I will leave a clone in the village, my doppelganger strength is not weak, unless the 'shadow' of any village comes to attack in person, otherwise I can deal with it."
The two were stunned when they heard the words and said.
"Back in one day? How is this done!? ”
"It should be the secret technique of the 'corpse bone vein', if it's just for a day, it's not a big problem."
Ayaten nodded and continued:
"And don't we still have to rebuild the dark department, and when the dark part is rebuilt, even if I am not there, the village will be able to operate normally for a while."
All of the former shadows of the Fog Hidden Village were sacrificed to Obito by Madara, and only a few people survived.
When she succeeded Mizukage a few days ago, Ayaten was thinking about rebuilding the Shadows.
However, since the vast majority of the ninjas in the fog were still on the front line at that time, the rebuilding of the dark part has been delayed until now.
Now that all the ninjas in the fog have returned to the village, it is the perfect time to reorganize the dark department.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ayaten wants to assemble a perfect dark part in his mind, at least to rival the dark part of Konoha .
As soon as they heard that they were going to reorganize the dark department, Yuan Shi and Terumi Taki immediately came to the spirit.
"Indeed, the sooner the Shadows are rebuilt, the better!"
"Well, now that everyone is in the village, it's easy to choose people."
