As the first ninja village, Konoha naturally attracts the attention of other ninja villages in every move.

Especially the bonds that have been booming recently, which makes the shadows in the major ninja villages feel bright.

In the past, in order to raise military funds to expand armaments, the shadows of the major ninja villages either fought with the daimyo nobles, or forcibly apportioned with the ninja giants in the village, or increased the commission of the task, which often caused a lot of chicken feathers.

But if you use bonds as a package and interest as bait, wouldn't it be easier to get money out of the pockets of the daimyo nobles?

After all, with the continuous consumption during the war, even the richest Konoha felt that the money in his hand was not enough to spend, and the other ninja villages were extremely poor.

Therefore, when the Konoha Ninja Village's bond plan was just announced and before it was officially issued, Yunyin and Sand Yin respectively released billions of bond plans, and advertised that there was no purchase threshold, and even the hostile Ninja Village could buy it at will.

Cloud Hide, Sand Hide: Leeks! Consciously pop the gold coins!

When the news reached Konoha, it also caused a shock.

I thought that it would be great for the Uchiha clan to issue bonds to raise 250 million, and the village's plan to issue 500 million bonds is also quite good, but I didn't expect other ninja villages to have greater ambitions!

Now it was the Hokage's turn and he couldn't sit still.

Because the purpose of Yunyin's bond issuance is to use it as military spending.

Yes! It is written nakedly to raise military spending!

And the bonds of the sand are to regain the lost territory - the sand will see the country of the river as the lost land!

But Kawanokuni is currently controlled by Konoha's Western Border Defense Force!

I thought that the war would be extinguished to straighten out internal affairs and curb the growing power of Hachiki Sakushige and Uchiha Tokumitsu, but now it seems that the intensity of the ninja war may be even higher.

After some internal discussions, the third generation of apes decided to convene an enlarged meeting of the Konoha leadership to discuss countermeasures.

Uchiha Tokumitsu, who had already returned to the eastern station, was also notified of his participation.

……

"I know, I'll be there on time."

In the large tent of the Chinese army of the Eastern Border Defense Force, Uchiha Tokumitsu said to the dark department who came to deliver the message.

The Uzumaki clan Tsunashi Patriarch who came from afar also did not shy away from sitting in the tent, neither avoiding, nor worrying that the shadows would gossip when they returned.

Since you have chosen to form an alliance with the Uchiha clan, then simply tie it up to the end!

This is the strategy of Uzumaki Reed.

The benefits of this alliance strategy to the Uzumaki are now clear.

The smuggling activities of the Uchiha clan and the Mist Hidden Ninja clan do not avoid the Uzumaki ninjas, and the Uchiha Tokumitsu is also ready to bring the Uzumaki clan in to share the benefits.

"Tokumitsu-kun, the country of the vortex is a thing of the past, and the Uchiha clan is willing to invest in reconstruction, and we will definitely support it."

Uzumaki thanked Uchiha Tokumitsu for his respect for his allies.

With the 50 million taels raised through the "Uzumaki Country Property Promotion Bond" jointly issued with the Uzumaki clan, Uchiha Tokumitsu plans to build various infrastructure in the homeland of the Uzumaki Country.

It's not a lot of money, but it's enough to build the warehouses, docks, and maybe other useful dockyards for the 'special border trade'.

Tempted to return to the country of the Vortex, Uzumaki Reeda also expressed his proper understanding on behalf of his family for conducting trade business with the Misty Ninja clan, who had a grudge against destroying the country.

"In any case, the country of the vortex is the homeland of the Vortex clan after all, and the blood feud is unforgettable......"

Uchiha Tokumitsu naturally affirmed and praised Uzumaki Reed's statement: "It's just that the reality is that whether it is to rebuild the homeland or strengthen the ethnic group, a huge amount of money is indispensable to support it, so ...... Let the Vortex Clan be wronged. ”

Deguang Jun said seriously...... A tailed beast without chakra is not as useful as a ninja dog, and there are many reasons behind the fall of the Uzumaki clan to this point, but the help of the Uchiha clan is what I am really grateful for, and as for the personal honor and disgrace, it is nothing......"

The name of the whirlpool reed is also full of emotion.

"As a ninja clan, watching and helping each other is also a proper thing!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said happily.

The reason why he chose to pull the Uzumaki clan to join the border trade with the fog is because the thing that bothers Uchiha Tokumitsu the most at the moment is that the Uchiha clan is running out of people.

And this is also related to the rapid expansion of the power of the Uchiha clan.

Today, the relative lack of human resources has become a major constraint on the speed of development of the Uchiha clan.

First, the Northwest Frontier Defense Force, which is now led by the Uchiha Fire Gate, then the restructured Police Department, and more recently, the Eastern Border Defense Force, as well as the newly established Minamigagawa Stock Exchange......

There are all kinds of mountains, layers of mountains, redundant officials and redundant soldiers, and the idle ninjas of the Uchiha clan quickly rushed to the four directions, and even the family ninjas directly led by the elders of the various factions were also emptied.

The number of people in the clan is limited, but the positions of power captured in the process of family expansion and the new jobs created in the process of development are constantly growing.

In this regard, the opinion given by Uchiha Tokumitsu is to "grasp the big and let go of the small".

In the past, because the Uchiha clan was firmly bound to the police department, it was understandable that the clan valued the position of the police department, but now with the continuous expansion of the Uchiha Tokumitsu's crusade and west, the Uchiha clan is no longer enough to cover all the positions, and it is also a good choice to introduce the pro-affiliated ninja clan as a supplementary force.

The Eastern Border Defense Force, which Uchiha Tokumitsu is currently in charge, is an attempt at this model.

"Now that we are the era of great powers, the strength of the ninja clan is no longer suitable for the super-intensity of the ninja war, and we must unite closely to resist the risks that may arise."

The name of the whirlpool reed is also deeply convinced.

Uchiha Tokumitsu was very pleased that the Ashina patriarch was able to convince himself.

"What do you think of the enlarged meeting of the village?"

Uzumaki returned to the topic of the meeting that the herald had spoken.

"Yun Yin is ambitious, and Sha Yin is still unwilling."

Uchiha Tokumitsu scoffed at the bond plans of Kugakure and Kirigakure, "It's nothing more than old wine in new bottles so that money can be taken out of the Daimyo's treasury." ”

"It seems that Deguangjun is very confident! The Uzumaki clan will not participate in the discussion at that time, and only need to support the Uchiha! ”

Uzumaki stroked his long beard and nodded in compliment.

"With the words of the reed patriarch, I think this meeting will definitely be successful!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu laughed.

In response to the various bonds launched by other ninja villages, Uchiha Tokumitsu has devised a "credit rating system" and is preparing to propose it at a high-level meeting in Konoha.

Although it may not have an immediate effect on the bonds issued by other ninja villages, it can at least affect Konoha to issue bonds independently.

In this way, Uchiha Tokumitsu's goal of trying to control the securities market was achieved.

……

In the conference room of the Hokage Building, the heads of the major ninja clans, the chiefs of the Konoha tribes, and the commanders of the various defense forces on the border were all present at the meeting.

Mainly because the name of this meeting was designated as the "Konoha High-level Meeting" by the three generations of apes and flying days, who wants to come, won't they even feel that they are not high-level?

After a long day of traveling, Uchiha Tokumitsu and the Uzumaki Patriarch arrived at the venue at the last moment.

As soon as he sat down, the third generation of apes Fei Ri Slash walked into the conference room with two consultants.

"Ladies and gentlemen, I believe that needless to say, everyone also knows the purpose of convening this meeting...... After a brief greeting, the third generation of apes Flying Sun cut straight to the point and said: "Yunyin and Shayin are ambitious, and it is not good for Konoha to try to raise military expenses through the issuance of bonds, so I convened a meeting here to discuss a way to deal with it. ”

"The village is ready to increase the amount of bonds issued, and the total amount raised is tentatively set at 2 billion taels, what do you think?"

Zhuan Xiaochun said next.

"This matter is at a critical juncture, and I would like to ask everyone to donate generously, help each other in the same boat, and tide over the difficulties with the village!"

Mito Menitis was supplemented and set the tone of the meeting.

It turns out that the purpose of the meeting is to fight the autumn wind!

The ninja leaders bowed their heads and remained silent.

The three generations of apes sat on the top without saying a word.

Mito Menyan and Koharu turned their eyes to the camp of the Uchiha clan and the Hyuga clan.

Under the blazing gaze of the advisor elder, Hyuga Patriarch was a little overwhelmed.

sighed in his heart, and was about to take the initiative to cut the meat, but Uchiha Tokumitsu spoke first.

"Is the Daimyo going to abandon Konoha and ignore it!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said loudly, "We are waiting to protect the land for the Daimyo, do we still have to raise our own funds to fight?" Wouldn't it be that the guard dog at home has to let it find its own bones to eat? How can there be such a ridiculous thing in the ninja world! ”

"Not really! However, the daimyo's funds were also limited, so the village also made this decision to raise more military expenses. ”

Mito Menyan hurriedly said.

Although powerful ninjas generally don't take daimyo very seriously, they still can't be criticized too unscrupulously on the surface.

In particular, part of the legitimacy of the Hokage's position comes from the support of the Daimyo, and the ninjas of the village cannot be allowed to be disrespectful to the Daimyo, otherwise the Hokage's power will also be questioned.

"Then since the daimyo has paid for it, why do you have to raise money from the ninja clan to buy bonds!"

The Kurama patriarch also immediately stepped forward.

The Uchiha patriarch cast an approving glance at him.

"After our efforts, the daimyo is ready to allocate another two billion as supplementary military expenses, but according to the village's estimates, the village must have at least four billion military expenses as reserves to deal with the expanded Yunyin and Shayin, so ......"

So you found the ninja clan to fight the autumn wind?!

The leaders of the ninja clan slandered in their hearts.

"Then announce the issuance of 10 billion!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said.

"Ten billion!"

Not only the leader of the ninja clan, but even the three generations of apes who maintained a state of peace were stunned.

"Ridiculous!"

The Nara patriarch immediately jumped out and retorted: "Let's not talk about whether there is so much money, even if you borrow this money, the village will not even be able to pay the interest then!" ”

"What's the hurry! Tokumitsu-sama hasn't finished yet! ”

The Ignorant Fire Patriarch immediately jumped up and retorted.

"Quiet!"

The three generations of apes fly to the sun and tap lightly on the table with their pipes.

"Nominally, 10 billion will be issued, but in fact, it will cost 4 billion to find a big name, and the village will raise another billion on its own, I think it should be about the same......

Uchiha Tokumitsu was shocked: "The village's military budget gap is four billion, and if the daimyo pays two billion, it is equivalent to half; But if the village's funding gap is 10 billion, then the daimyo is only 40 billion! ”

"This ...... Isn't this a deception of the Daimyo? ”

Mito Menyan muttered.

"What kind of deception, our defense of the Fire Nation is to protect the daimyo and nobles, this is the responsibility of the daimyo in the first place!"

The Kurama patriarch jumped up again and shouted, "Tokumitsu-kun is right, you can't let the Konoha ninja shed blood, sweat and tears!" ”

"But 10 billion is too exaggerated......"

The third generation of apes had to come forward to control the scene: "How could the daimyo agree to such an absurd reason......

"Iwakuin and Fog have not yet announced their plans for a bond issuance...... In order to guard against their provocations, 10 billion is not too much. ”

Patriarch Hinata also spoke.

"Our purpose in issuing bonds is not only to raise military spending, but also to deter the military adventures of other ninja villages through strategic intimidation."

Uchiha Tokumitsu added again: "As the Hyuga patriarch said, considering that the four major ninja villages may break out again, the propaganda of 10 billion yuan is not too much, and the actual scale of 5 billion yuan of bonds is actually reasonable!" ”

"Deguangjun is right, it is a good strategy to stop the war before it happens!"

Hachiki Shuo Shigeru, who had been silent for a long time, also echoed and said, "We must let other ninja villages who intend to be unfavorable to Konoha see our posture, so that their military adventure impulse can be stifled!" ”

"Nanhechuan Bond Exchange can undertake the domestic part of the issuance of this bond!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu immediately continued, "At the same time, we will introduce a credit rating system to interfere with the bond financing of Sagakure and Kigakure through public opinion. ”

"What is a credit rating system?"

Autumn Road takes the wind and is interested.

The three generations and the two advisors were a little helpless.

There are too many participants and there are many doors, and the venue is really not good to bring rhythm.

"The so-called credit rating system is a comprehensive assessment of safety, profitability, growth, liquidity and productivity, and we can use this rating system to issue warning announcements on Yunyin and Shayin's bonds, and disseminate the actual default risk, so that wealthy businessmen other than the daimyo and nobles dare not invest and buy!"

Immediately, Uchiha Tokumitsu immediately ordered someone to issue detailed credit rating rules to all the senior executives attending the meeting.

"This rating system has been applied to the Nanhechuan Stock Exchange, and the rating reports of the three bonds issued in the previous period will also be issued."

"I agree!"

Uzumaki immediately echoed: "If the bonds are issued by the Nanhechuan Stock Exchange, the Uzumaki clan will promise to subscribe for 100 million taels!" ”

The Uchiha bowed barely as a sign of gratitude.

"The village's bonds, it's always wrong to let the Uchiha clan issue them!"

Zhuan Xiaochun frowned and retorted, "The village will take care of this matter!" ”

"The transfer consultant is wrong! The Minamigagawa Stock Exchange is not the private property of the Uchiha clan, but the first securities institution in the ninja world that is rational, neutral and objective, and enjoys a high reputation in the world, so it is more suitable for the Nangagawa Stock Exchange to issue bonds! ”

"What if...... I mean, if ......"

Mito Menyan paused for a moment and said slowly: "The actual scale of bond issuance is five billion, right?" But what if the amount raised exceeds it? ”

"This simple ......"

Uchiha Dekumi looked around.

"The money from foreign investment is used normally, the money of the daimyo nobles is divided into thirty or seventy, and the money of the Konoha ninja clan is all returned!"

As soon as these words came out, the venue was in an uproar.

"Why is it that the village only gets seventy percent? That's too little! ”

Zhuan Xiaochun said with a frown.

She felt that the village was too bad.

"What seventy percent! This seventy percent is for the ninjas who participated in the war! Uchiha Tokumitsu refuted mercilessly: "The thirty percent left for the village is just as an interest expense in the later stage!" Save some money, maybe you can have a little financial reservation! ”

Until now, the power of civilian ninjas has been requisitioned. And if there is a leisure force to accept the conscription to participate in the war, it is basically all ninja clans.

The ninja leaders immediately thought of this key point and spoke out in agreement.

The three generations of apes and the two advisors suddenly felt anxious.

The meeting hadn't been going on for long, and the amount of information was so large that Konoha F3 already felt that his brain couldn't handle it.

Generally speaking, the international rating system revolves around the above 5C elements, while the domestic rating attaches importance to the analysis of the five characteristics.
