Of the three banquets, only this last one is the main event, and it is also the real purpose of ape Fei Ri to give money.

Tatsuma waited two days for the invitation to be delivered, but Uchiha Fugaku did not reply, and Tatsuma did not care, but followed his daily plan.

I trained in the morning, practiced with Watergate at noon, and came to the barbecue Q again in the afternoon.

Coming three times in four days, Tatsuma clearly saw that the smile on his face had changed and become. Enthusiastic.

It's not just because Tatsuma comes a lot, but also because every time Tatsuma comes, the people he brings with him are very large, and if they can maintain Tatsuma, they can also maintain the guests who come with it.

It's just that Tatsuma knows that he is destined to disappoint Barbecue Q, after all, if it is to spend his own money, he is not willing to come here, or rather, it is not unwilling, but reluctant.

Excluding drinks and some high-end meals that even need to be pre-ordered, the average person in the barbecue Q is between 5,000 and 10,000 taels, and it seems that Chenma can have hundreds of thousands of honorarium sharing income for one task, and it seems that it can be easily consumed.

But Chen Ma Ke still has to support a large family, and the expenses of a large family fall on Chen Ma alone, although there are only two households in the Thousand Hands Clan, but the area is too large, and the expenditure on water and electricity and maintenance and repair, each cycle will cost a lot of money.

In addition, as the last façade of a thousand hands, what activities are there in the village, or some weddings and funerals of acquaintances, plus New Year's condolences, Chenma has to pay for it, and it can't be too little.

Nine years ago, when Chen Ma first came to this world, he had two thousand taels in his hand, which made him feel a lot more at ease, but now, if he had less than one million taels left in his hand, he couldn't help but feel anxious.

However, this kind of anxiety has already been adapted, after all, he also carried a mortgage and car loan in his previous life, and even this anxiety and pressure are also known as his internal driving force.

Therefore, Chenma has adapted to the volume and the consumption downgrade, but it will not be affected by the normal rhythm of life.

The high consumption and high service of barbecue Q can't make Chenma's mentality go from thrift to luxury, so naturally there is no need to go from luxury to thrift.

Coming to the barbecue Q in advance, after Chenma confirmed his order again, he waited in the private room, and when there were only ten minutes left before the agreed time, there was movement outside the door.

"Tatsuma, long time no see."

The door was pulled open, and Uchiha Fugaku and Uchiha Yashiro appeared, and Fugaku showed an unnatural smile towards Tatsuma, which was extremely incompatible with the fierce look on his face.

Of course he knew what this banquet meant, after all, it was first agreed upon between his father and him, but the party to the banquet changed from Uchiha to Tatsuma.

Therefore, Fugaku can't put on a high posture, not even the posture that the Uchiha should have, after all. How can anyone ask someone to do something with their nostrils facing to the sky?

Chenma looked at Fuyue, who had not officially met for several years, and he was becoming more and more like the person in Chenma's impression, although he had a fierce face, but his body exuded a sense of helplessness and powerlessness.

"Brother Fuyue, eight generations of seniors, please take a seat."

Tatsuma guided the two to sit down, and then asked the waiter at the door to inform the kitchen to serve the food, of course, not all of the finished dishes.

There are some ready-made dishes, but more of them are meat to be grilled, after all, this is a barbecue restaurant, and only freshly grilled is enough to be distinctive.

"Hello, do you need help baking?"

A chef in charge of the tableside cooking asked, Tatsuma shook his head and said, "No, I like to do it myself, please close the door when you leave." ”

"Okay."

The chef didn't ask too much, and after leaving the box, he closed the door, and the waiter at the door also stayed away from the door.

Chenma is talking about closing, but the subtext is that he doesn't want to be disturbed, and the more he pays attention to the restaurant or restaurant of service, the more the service staff understands these subtext.

The kind of restaurant that serves customers all the time regardless of their wishes is not really a restaurant with high service quality.

"Here, try this, it's delicious with a little salt."

Although they both knew that they had something important to talk about, both sides were not in a hurry to speak, but ate barbecue, chatted about the past of the battlefield, and occasionally laughed at the same time.

From time to time, Fuyue's hand landed on the table, as if he wanted to grab something, but . Tatsuma didn't order any wine.

Because the budget was insufficient, Fugaku glanced at Hachishiro, then looked back in the direction of Tatsuma, and said, "When I was on the battlefield before, I often heard my seniors say that I wanted to drink, but I didn't know that kind of mood at the time.

Recently, I have gradually understood their mentality, and wine is indeed a thing closely related to life, and it cannot be separated from it. ”

The implication is almost the same here, it's not that Fu Yue wants to drink so much, it's just that there are some words that can be better said on the grounds of drunkenness.

Tatsuma turned over the meat on the baking sheet, then put down the chopsticks and said with a smile: "In a sense, wine is indeed closely related to life, but there is also a saying called drinking mistakes. ”

Hearing Tatsuma's words, Fugaku's expression sank, and his understanding was that Tatsuma, or Hokage's side, was planning to seriously put the whole thing on the table and say it, rather than communicating through ambiguous hints.

This is a difficult task, because drunken promises can be counted, and promises can also be made with some ambiguous words to create more favorable conditions for themselves.

But you can drink and make mistakes, what is wrong? Of course, it's a serious matter

The village can naturally talk about business with the Uchiha, after all, a change in the clan can involve the whole village at will, but the Uchiha can talk about the village at the right time?

As an internal struggle, but to attract external forces to suppress "their own people", even if this approach is successful, it will be poked in the backbone in the future.

Yachiyo, who originally received the hint from his eyes, was already ready to go out and order some wine, but as soon as the words Tatsuma drank and misbehaved, he was also a little embarrassed.

The young patriarch asked him to order wine, but Tatsuma politely refused, based on the principle of the guest as the host, Hachiyo could not order wine at this time.

The two didn't expect that after the relationship was brought together, they would talk about the requests and commissions between them, and they would be so stuck, how could they have a heart-to-heart relationship without drinking, after all, they were not real friends.

Chenma saw that the two were different, but he had no intention of going back, after all, even if the two in front of him misunderstood, the party that benefited was also Chenma and the interest group he represented.

Of course, the steps that should be given, Chen Ma will still give it, after all, the meeting can't be frozen or end without a problem, Chen Ma has no money to feast again, so he said:

"Brother Fugaku, you should also know that I went to the Uchiha's clan land a few days ago."

"Of course, in fact, Tianfeng's birthday banquet, I also want to participate, after all, he is also a genius in the clan, and I heard him say yesterday that the dark department is also investigating him, about this matter, we Uchiha are still very supportive."

With the topic, Fuyue also breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly said, but after a large paragraph of words, he reacted, it seemed that the topic had been grasped by Tatsuma, and he became a completely passive party.

Tatsuma hadn't even said anything before he poured beans from a bamboo tube. It's a shame.

Tatsuma had a smile on his face, Fuyue was so cute, and before he could talk about business, he agreed to one of the conditions.

After thinking about it for a while, Tatsuma shook his head and said, "What I want to talk about is not about this matter, after all, Tianfeng's joining the dark department is beneficial to the village and Uchiha, and Tianfeng's personal will is the key." ”

In a word, the conditions are included in the ranks of course, this is one of the chips that directly took away Fu Yue, Fu Yue's face sank again and again, but it was not easy to say anything, so he could only echo and say:

"Yes, we are only supporting the development of the clansmen, but what did Chen Ma-kun just want to say?"

Fugaku could only suffer this loss, and Tatsuma finally said, "I want to say that I am in the Uchiha, but I heard something. Words that are not conducive to the unity of the village. ”

Did Tatsuma hear me? No, but it doesn't matter if you don't hear it, it's enough as long as the Uchiha exists.

Everything got to the point, Fugaku and Yashiro became serious, and the topic thrown by Tatsuma was very sensitive, Fuyue was silent for a while before he said:

"That's true, but the vast majority of Uchiha recognize the village and are committed to maintaining the unity of the village, but after all, there are many clansmen, and some are remnants.

Of course, I'm not trying to excuse it, we also have an unshirkable responsibility for this phenomenon in the clan, and in the future, the Uchiha will definitely clean up and rectify the situation and work together to maintain the unity of the village. ”

"The problem of historical legacies is understandable, but the continuation of some history is enough only in books or memories, some erroneous consciousnesses and attitudes, or the carriers of these consciousnesses and attitudes. It doesn't have to exist and continue. ”

Tatsuma's words are fluttering, but they are like a heavy hammer hammering Fuyue and Yashiro, what is the carrier? Nature is a human being, and human beings do not have to exist and continue, that is, they must cut down the grass and eradicate the roots.

Such a thing, even within the Uchiha, has never happened, and after the Uchiha was instantaneous, neither the village nor the Uchiha pursued the descendants of those people's families.

But Tatsuma said at the moment. Fu Yue's teeth clenched unconsciously, his breathing became heavy, and his eyes, which were already quite fierce, were even more fierce at this time.

However, Tatsuma seemed to be unaware of it, and kept looking at Fugaku, because under that fierce appearance, there was a weak core.

Even, Chen Ma said like adding fuel to the fire: "Brother Fuyue should know that I am a doctor, and I have seen too many cases of minor illnesses developing into major illnesses and even terminal illnesses due to avoiding medical treatment.

Injuries and illnesses in people, if necessary, should learn from strong men to break their wrists, and disasters on the battlefield sometimes have to be solved by abandoning the car to protect the commander, and the same is true for a clan and a village.

Besides"

Chenma leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice, and said: "After Brother Fuyue became the patriarch, there is still such a voice that influences the development of the clan, and even instigates and coerces others, then your position as the patriarch will gradually become a joke."

Brother Fuyue, when he is constantly interrupted, he suffers from chaos. What you want is to control the Uchiha and lead the Uchiha to a better development? Or is it just to be a titular patriarch and maintain a ridiculous face? ”

Hearing this, Fugaku fell silent, Tatsuma's words were too informative, not only expressing the village's attitude towards the radicals in the Uchiha, but also showing . The village's understanding of the Uchiha's movements.

The fact that he was about to succeed to the position of patriarch was never announced, and even within the Uchiha clan, there was no such voice, but the village still knew.

Moreover, Fuyue couldn't help but wonder what Tatsuma said, if those people continued to exist, would he be able to sit firmly in the position of patriarch? Can you be a good patriarch?

After a long time, Fu Yue asked, "Village. How can I help? ”
