In order to be able to build a centrifuge that separates chakra substances, Uchiha Tokumitsu allocated 30 million taels of funds to the laboratory in one go.

As a result, he emptied his small treasury again.

In order to fill his small treasury with cute gold judgments again, Uchiha Tokumitsu organized several special border trades in a short period of time, dumping beef and mutton from the country of grass and luxury goods from the land of fire into the ninja tribe of the fog.

The trade team of the Mist Hidden Ninja Clan, who did not refuse, sent a tent full of golden judgments to Uchiha Tokumitsu.

Uchiha Tokumitsu stood at the entrance of the tent, grabbed a handful of golden judgments, and watched as the golden cutie slipped out of his palm and fell back onto the pile of golden judgments, stirring up intoxicating music.

"Lord Tokumitsu, after this transaction, when will the next round of trade be arranged?"

Kigakure's trade envoy is still an acquaintance of Uchiha Tokumitsu, Ribu Keiyuki.

As a civilian, no strength, no family background in the fog of the ninja, Risheng Keiyuki thought that his destiny was either to die quietly in a certain mission or to be turned into minced meat by a casual blow in the ninja village war where the strong were numerous, even when he drank the most, he never thought that he could have the status he has today.

"All the pastures in the Land of Grass have been sold, and it may take another year; The high luxury of the Hyuga family has been ordered, and it will be delivered in about three months. ”

Uchiha Tokumitsu answered Riyuki's question very patiently.

For the sake of money, even the fog has become cute. 、

"That's ......"

Ri Sheng Keiyuki was a little disappointed.

It didn't matter to him how much purchasing power the Mist Ninja still had, how much spending power the Water Country still had, what impact the massive amount of meat and luxury goods would have on the local industry, or even what kind of impact the massive outflow of gold would have on the Water Country's monetary system, the only thing Ribu Keiyuki cared about was how long such a trade activity could last.

Because his status comes from the special border trade and the small appreciation that Uchiha Tokumitsu has for him.

Even if he is just a docking person, even if he only has a little bit of insignificant inventory power over the purchased materials, such a large piece of fat, even if he only touches it twice, can make soup with the oil and water in his hand.

"It doesn't matter, we can also expand the scale and depth of trade and explore the trading of other commodities; We are also interested in seafood from the Land of Water. ”

Uchiha Tokumitsu naturally doesn't hate this fortune boy-like misty docking person.

Although the strength is average, he is surprisingly able to speak and be good at observing words and feelings, and can bring enough benefits to himself.

As a super supplier who has mastered the source of goods and trade ports, Uchiha Tokumitsu also has the idea of supporting agents.

It's just that supporting compradors requires superb remote farming technology, which Uchiha Tokumitsu is still exploring.

"Hmm...... If Lord Deguang is seafood, you can make up your mind and agree, but I don't know what kind of seafood you need? ”

When Lisheng Qingxing heard that there was still an opportunity to make money back, he was suddenly overjoyed and even happier.

“…… I'll have someone give you a list in case of that, so let's see what to do. ”

At this time, Uchiha Tokumitsu noticed that a subordinate in the distance was waving to him for something, so he simply ended the conversation.

"What's ......?"

After seeing off Ritsu Keiyuki, his subordinates bowed to Uchiha Tokumitsu's side. Uchiha Tokumitsu took the initiative to inquire about something.

"A family message has arrived, saying that the messenger of the daimyo has secretly arrived in the village yesterday......"

His subordinates were also from the Uchiha clan, and he whispered to Uchiha Tokumitsu a little nervously.

"The messenger of the daimyo came to the village to hide his whereabouts? Is something wrong? ”

Uchiha Tokumitsu frowned, and immediately felt that something was wrong.

The subordinate silently took out a letter and handed it to Uchiha Tokumitsu.

After opening it casually and taking a quick look, Uchiha Tokumitsu snorted.

It's a bit of a hassle......

The joint smuggling of the Uchiha clan and the Kirishin ninja clan was reported, and the daimyo was very unhappy.

The purpose of the Daimyo's emissary arriving in Konoha was to condemn the incident and ask the Hokage to restrain the Uchiha's actions.

"I got it......"

Uchiha Toku's bare hand shook, and the fire escape chakra was released to burn the letterhead to ashes, "Just continue to pay attention to the follow-up developments, and don't pay attention to anything else." ”

Anyway, after this batch of special border transactions, the massive amount of goods dumped into Wuyin is enough to meet the needs of the Water Country for a period of time in the future, and it doesn't matter if you stop for a while, you can also import some high-end seafood from Wuyin to make some inland money.

But the trees want to be still, and the wind does not stop.

During the night, Qimu Shuomao's urgent message also reached the eastern garrison battalion.

Although the letter came a little later, the information revealed was more detailed.

The Daimyo's envoy not only demanded that the Hokage send men to block the smuggling lines of communication in various places, but also demanded that the Uchiha Tokumitsu be removed from his position, that the Uchiha patriarch be ordered to meet with the Daimyo Mansion to make amends, and that the Uchiha clan pay a huge amount of compensation.

And the most important thing about Uchiha Tokumitsu on the letterhead is that the content of the discussion between the daimyo envoy and the Hokage was revealed to the Hyuga clan on his own initiative.

Moreover, in the letterhead, Kiki Shuomao also said that the Hyuga patriarch took the initiative to ask him to tell Uchiha Tokumitsu on his behalf.

"Daimyo, so bold! There are a few Shangninas in his hands, and he dares to make such a big talk! ”

Uchiha Tokura looked angry, and the fire in his hand was condensed, and Chakra turned the letterhead a little dusty, and then took out a pen and paper and began to write a letter.

In the letter to Sakumo Hagi, he thanked him for telling the details in a timely manner, so that the Uchiha clan could avoid falling into a passive situation, and asked him to thank the Hyuga clan on his behalf.

The letterhead to the family asks for the transfer of personnel from the police department and various families to form a combat force and be ready to fight at any time.

Then another letter was sent to the Daimyo Mansion of the Grass Country, informing the Tokumitsu Red Reserve Army stationed there to send a detachment to the border area of the Grass Country and the Fire Country.

Moreover, there is no need to conceal the whereabouts of the above transfers, and the larger the movement of the mobilization and assembly, the better.

"Maybe it's an opportunity......"

After handing over the letterhead to his subordinates and sending it out, Uchiha Tokumitsu pondered it in the tent.

The reason why the daimyo sent the envoy to accountability was nothing more than because the joint smuggling of the Uchiha clan and the Kirishin ninja clan touched the commercial interests of the two daimyos, so they intended to stop and extort a sum of money.

As long as the Uchiha clan's thousands of ninja armies remain, the Daimyo's accountability and Hokage's criticism are all floating clouds.

However, the Hyuga clan took the initiative to reveal information in a different way.

To tell the truth, when it comes to observing words and looking at the wind and making the rudder, the Uchiha clan can't catch up with Hinata even if they shoot their horses.

And it can make the Hyuga clan, who were originally arrogantly trying to compete for the title of the strongest ninja clan, transmit information to the Uchiha clan from the side, and it is also extremely sensitive information such as the conspiracy of the daimyo envoy and the Hokage......

"Why did the Hyuga clan suddenly want to open it......"

This is what Uchiha Tokumitsu is most puzzled about.

Why did the Hyuga clan, a group of old antiques from the Warring States period who were secretly in power, suddenly make a 180° turn and turn to the Uchiha clan?

You can't be intimidated by the power of the Uchiha clan, right?

It can't be because the luxury goods exported by the Uchiha clan to Kigakure are purchased from the Hyuga clan, right?

A dignified thousand-year-old family, when did it have such a flexible figure?

Uchiha Tokumitsu was puzzled.

……

The next day, the Hokage's messenger arrived at the Eastern Border Defense Force and informed Uchiha Tokumitsu to return to the village for a meeting three days later.

"...... in three days"

Uchiha Tokumitsu was also particularly speechless after being notified.

Is this to investigate the evidence of the Uchiha clan's crimes, or is it to facilitate the Uchiha and other related parties to collude?

"I know, I'll be there."

Uchiha Tokumitsu casually sent away the messenger shadows.

"Patriarch, you can come out."

Uchiha Tokumitsu said casually.

The patriarch Uchiha Quartet walked out from behind the big tent of the Chinese army with a gloomy face.

He arrived a little earlier than the secret department of the messenger, and deliberately left the big tent to hide for a while in order to avoid suspicion.

"Why is it three days later?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu asked.

"I don't know ...... either"

Patriarch Uchiha Quartet couldn't answer.

"And what are you doing here?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu pressed his eyebrows a few times, and felt a little headache: "Are the family's combat units ready?" Have all the ninja cat spies been sent? Have all the relatives and ninja clans been contacted? ”

"This ......"

The Uchiha Quartet was dumbfounded.

"Deguangjun, what are you going to do......"

"Isn't it the Daimyo sending an envoy to question? Aren't you going to deal with it? ”

Uchiha Tokumitsu was a little strange.

"The troops drawn by the family are ready, but the ninja cat clan still has their own relatives of the ninja clan......"

Uchiha asked cautiously.

"If you seek peace through struggle, you will live in peace, and if you seek peace through compromise, you will die peacefully!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu packed up the papers, got up and said, "The family also needs to show their attitude to the outside world, so that they can understand that the core interests of the Uchiha clan are inviolable!" ”

The Uchiha Quartet wanted to speak and stopped.

Uchiha Tokumitsu walked out of the tent.

"Where are you going?"

Uchiha Quartet hurriedly asked.

"The meeting is going to be held in three days, aren't you going to go back to the village first?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu looked back and said a little strangely.

The Uchiha Quartet was speechless.

He felt like he had run for nothing.

"Things can't be too big......"

Uchiha Quartet thought about it for a while, and still paid the bill with Uchiha Tokumitsu.

Appearing in public can also be regarded as a sign of the family's support for Uchiha Tokumitsu, and it can also make those involved in the special border trade feel at ease.

"The patriarch means to make a fuss?"

After arranging the affairs of the border troops with the shinobi in charge, Uchiha Tokumitsu replied casually.

“…… Try not to really fight, the family is not quite ready. ”

After the Uchiha Quartet struggled for a while, he replied with a sigh.

"I'll be measured."

Uchiha Tokumitsu was noncommittal.

Although the Uchiha Quartet didn't say anything more, he still felt apprehensive in his heart.

It's so exciting!

Compared to Uchiha Tokumitsu, he feels like a dove of doves!

……

The Uchiha clan's smuggling incident broke out, and the news of being held accountable by the daimyo also spread in Konoha.

The civilian ninjas, who were tired of the task, expressed envy and jealousy, and the ninja took it as a warning, believing that they would have to maintain a secretive style in the future and not be as ostentatious as the Uchiha.

But what caught Konoha the most attention was the attitude shown by the Uchiha clan.

Although the Daimyo Envoy and the Hokage Building have not yet officially sent a letter of inquiry to the Uchiha clan, it is already known about the meeting in three days.

Not to mention anything else, the patrol team of the police department that has been patrolling the streets recently has a lot of equipment on their bodies, and they are in a state of being fully armed and ready to fight.

In addition, there is also an Uchiha ninja army assembled at the Minamigagawa Uchiha Shrine with unknown intentions.

Compared with the smuggling incident, everyone is more worried that the Uchiha clan will have something big in their brains.

Everyone is waiting for the return of the person concerned, Uchiha Tokumitsu.

……

"What? The ninja army of the country of grass is stationed on the border of the land of fire? ”

In the Hokage Building, the three generations of apes have also received information about the movements of the Uchiha ninja army stationed abroad.

"Hokage-sama, this is rebellion! Naked rebellion! ”

The daimyo messenger jumped to his feet and shouted, "These wanton and arrogant Uchiha must be severely punished!" ”

The high-ranking officials in the Hokage's office ignored the shouting of the daimyo envoy.

In fact, the matter of smuggling is not big or small. The Konoha ninja clan actually did this work in private, but they didn't have such a big deal as the Uchiha clan.

In the past, the Uchiha clan focused on arms trading, while the Hyuga clan occupied all kinds of high-end luxury markets, the Nara clan's secret medicine marketed the ninja world, and even the Sarufei clan secretly controlled many mines, and the Shimura clan opened casinos all over the ninja world......

If it is really investigated, it is to pull out the radish and bring out the mud, and no one will be able to get it right.

Therefore, even if he is dissatisfied with the Uchiha clan, the original intention of the three generations of apes to fly to the sun is just to add to the blockage of the Uchiha clan.

If the Uchiha clan is not convinced, then their reputation with the daimyo will be even worse, and they will not even have the chance to be nominated by the Hokage in the future; If the Uchiha clan admits punishment, they can start from the aspect of 'losing power and humiliating the village', and hit the prestige of the Uchiha clan in Konoha through public opinion.

It's a win-win-win-win

Otherwise, the Uchiha smuggling incident would not have spread so quickly in the village.

"Don't be in a hurry, messenger...... The matter is still under investigation, perhaps something else. ”

The third generation of apes and flying in the sun put down the information of the dark department, took out his pipe and said unhurriedly: "Maybe there are some unnecessary misunderstandings due to poor communication of news~ Uchiha Tokumitsu will be back soon, let's talk about it at the meeting then." ”

The daimyo envoy immediately thought that the Hokage was deliberately shielding the Uchiha clan, and immediately jumped up again and shouted loudly.

The two advisors also hurriedly stepped forward to play the round.

Tsunade watched the drama in the Hokage's office with an impatient face.

Orochimaru, who was sitting in the dark corner of the Hokage's office, stared at the secret information brought by the daimyo envoy.

After the investigation of the noble officials of the Fire Country, the smuggling amount and profits of the Uchiha clan and the Mist Hidden Ninja clan were estimated, and the ultra-high "gold content" displayed between the lines made Orochimaru, who was originally insensitive to money, a little unable to sit still.

"Smuggling is so profitable!!"

It turns out that performing difficult tasks is not the most profitable!

Orochimaru seems to have opened the door to a new world!
