It’s not that Luo Sha has no way to make money, but that his youngest son squanders the money too quickly.
Every time someone goes berserk, they have to pay compensation. Even if the village funds can compensate that person, shouldn't they still express an apology?
This caused the family's living standards to plummet, and perhaps this was partly why Kankuro always used second-hand puppets.
Yahiko specially prepared some heartwarming gifts.
There are candies, cloths, stationery, and even a doll-like puppet that Scorpion made himself.
Luo Sha felt...very comfortable about this gift.
Apart from that doll, there was no other particularly valuable gift.
"Lord Rasa, I heard that Miss Temari's birthday just passed, so I sent you a belated gift."
...and became more vigilant, as the other party knew Fengying's family situation quite well.
Looking at his daughter's longing eyes, Rasa could only let Temari take over. After all, he had been too busy recently and always neglected his child's growth. His guilt was caught by the other party.
"Please come in."
Naturally, the simple private visit would not start with serious business. Yahiko casually chatted about the different customs and fairy tales of the Rain Kingdom and the Wind Kingdom, which made the two children's eyes full of longing.
"So this doll is called Mercury Lamp, right?"
"Yes."
"She was the one who defeated the Great Demon King Frieza together with the Magical Girl Madoka?"
"good."
Currently, only Yahiko has inherited Noah's talent for storytelling. He can easily capture the hearts of children with his nonsense.
Why does Luo Sha feel like an outsider when he sees the harmonious atmosphere in front of him?
"Ahem, well, you two should go back and rest."
After sending the two children away, Luo Sha was silent for a while. Perhaps... the Sand Village really needs to change its lifestyle.
"Is Akatsuki really working for peace?"
"of course."
"So... have you considered Konoha's ideas regarding your cooperation with the Sand Village?"
This is something that Luo Sha doesn't understand. Although the benefits are tempting, by the time the Fourth Ninja War comes, all of this will be gone.
"If the Rain Kingdom and the Wind Kingdom can form a business alliance, then they can also form an alliance with the Fire Kingdom and the Earth Kingdom. If we all work together to develop the economy and people's livelihood, war will not come."
……
Naive idea.
Hatred cannot be erased, and... the struggle for economic interests will be even more brutal.
But we also have to admire the organizations in this small country. They are actually doing this in their own way.
"I will write to the Daimyo tomorrow."
"Thank you."
"By the way, this puppet is Scorpion's work?"
"Senior Scorpion is a person who appears cold on the outside but is warm on the inside. He put in a lot of effort in the negotiations this time."
"…Returning to the village is impossible. If the platform is completed…the Sand Village will not pursue what happened before."
"Many thanks."
The Sand Village went through all the details within a week and is now waiting for a reply from the daimyo.
Seeing Yahiko's progress, Noah also prepared to move.
Daimyo...
Chapter 175: Sword Pointing to the Kingdom of Wind
On the high tower of Rain Village, Akatsuki held an official internal meeting.
Except for Chief Yahiko who was sent to the Kingdom of Wind and Honorary Chief Sasori, all the remaining honorary chiefs have arrived.
Noah issued an order of the highest level, so no one dared to neglect it. They all picked up their uniforms and began to gather.
After they gathered together, they found that the Akatsuki organization had grown to a terrifying level.
The veteran Akatsuki leader, Hanzo Salamander, was even more moved.
If such an organization came together, the five major ninja villages would be terrified.
Is the world really going to start burning?
Looking at the people present, it’s no wonder that Salamander Hanzo would think this way.
No one knows how far the Minister of Education Xiaonan has reached in his secret technique of test paper. It is only said that he is particularly fond of making detonating talismans.
Comrade Kakuzu of the Ministry of Finance is in charge of the economic lifeline of the entire organization. When it comes to the throughput of wealth, even the most insensitive people know that it will be an astronomical figure.
As for his immortality, it has long been forgotten by the world, and the power of wealth is even more awe-inspiring.
The Minister of Intelligence, White Zetsu, controls the intelligence department of the entire organization and is responsible for collecting intelligence and various resource information from the entire ninja world.
It is said that there has been new progress in the research based on his special physique. I wonder if this gathering is related to this.
The most mysterious Nagato, the successor of the Sage's Eye, controls the two most powerful treasures of the Akatsuki organization, which have always been hidden very carefully by Noah.
There are also the three ninjas of Konoha in their prime.
Tsunade, the medical saint, Orochimaru, the top biologist, and Jiraiya, the communicator of the Three Holy Land Platforms.
They are all well-known Kage-level powerful men in the ninja world.
Oh, Jiraiya was temporarily allowed in as an observer because this meeting was quite important, otherwise he would not be qualified to attend the meeting with his status as a trainee member.
The three holy places also sent representatives to attend the meeting.
The White Snake Immortal came to Longdi Cave in person, and the old woman's expression was very consistent with the temperament of the Villain Alliance.
It has to come. Since the betrayal, the three fairies in the holy land have been wanting to set up their own camp, so it has to cling to Noah's thigh tightly.
Myoboku Mountain sent the hermit Fukasaku to attend the meeting. Adhering to the principle of listening more and talking less, he sat there in a robe like an old monk in meditation.
The representative of the Wet Bone Forest is incredible.
There were two nine-tailed foxes on the conference table. Each of them was wearing a black robe with red clouds, looking extremely arrogant.
After being shrunk, they look like two cute mascots. Everyone knows that these two mascots have the fighting power to destroy a village instantly.
They are the fourth and fifth immortals of the Wet Bone Forest. It seems that the Yin-Yang Nine-Tailed Fox has no idea about the fusion.
Double the delicious food and double the fox life, isn’t that great?
Of course, double work is not very happy, even though it pays double the salary.
Kushina from the Sealing Class also came. She loved to make trouble after getting rid of the tube of the Outer Path Demon Statue. It can be said that she completely recovered her nature after dying once.
The last person to come was the new youth branch leader Hatake Kakashi who was brought by Flying Thunder God and is now the 5th Hokage of Konoha.
"Sorry for being late. I just cleaned up a few rebel ninjas who tried to assassinate the Kage."
"Promoting the Will of Fire is a little dangerous, hahahahaha."
Everyone understands that one of the jobs of a shadow is to face assassination at any time.
When all this power was really gathered together by Noah, everyone was wondering what kind of big move required the gathering of so many powerful people.
Even if we go to war with the entire ninja world, we already have the strength to fight.
None of the five major ninja villages could stop the sudden attack of this group of masters...except Konoha Village.
The honorary leaders took their seats one after another with great momentum and aura that was extremely powerful.
Itachi, who was the secretary of the meeting, froze again.
Why do these masters release their aura randomly at every turn? This is not like being a ninja at all.
"Very good, except for Yahiko and Sasori, our leaders and honorary leaders are all here."
Noah's emotions fluctuated slightly when he saw everyone gathered together. This day had finally come.
"Everyone, the Rain Country is too small."
"It took just over five years to grow from zero to one, a difficult stage."
"Although it's a radical change, are you really satisfied?"
"Uchiha Madara once said that this world is too small to accommodate him and Senju Hashirama at the same time. Our Akatsuki organization is no longer big enough for the Rain Country to accommodate."
"It can no longer sustain our productivity growth, both in terms of population and resources."
"Then it's time to choose the next target."
Everyone looked at Kakashi, wondering if he was going to attack the Fire Country Daimyo this time.
Yes, the leaders of the Fire Nation’s strongest armed forces are all our own people, so it won’t be a problem if we really want to take action.
Although they look extremely daring, there are not many timid people in the Akatsuki organization.
Jiraiya's hands trembled slightly and he wanted to stand up several times to stop this decision, but was suppressed by Orochimaru's eyes.
Konoha is located at the center of the world and any move by it can affect the entire world. Noah must be aware of this truth, so it cannot be Konoha.
"We have encountered a very important opportunity at this moment. Whether we can grasp it will affect the strategic layout of the ninja world in the next few years. That is - the Kingdom of Wind."
When Noah wrote the Kingdom of Wind on the blackboard, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Being brave doesn't mean you like to mess around.
Itachi hung up the map, on which the Rain Country was painted red, and only Konoha Village in the Fire Country was painted the right color.
And the Kingdom of Wind... was directly painted red.
There was also such a map on the Resurrection Island. It started from the South China Sea and spread all the way to cover the whole world.
This time when they set sail again, any obstacles standing in Noah’s way will be crushed!
"As everyone knows, except for the special terrain of the water in the entire Ninja Continent, which is isolated overseas, the remaining four major countries and many small countries are closely connected on this Ninja Continent.
The only countries that can satisfy our development needs while slightly blocking information exchange are the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Water.
As it happens, the economic mutual assistance platform between Sand Village and Akatsuki is being prepared, so let us congratulate Sand Village for winning the Kingdom of Wind. "
Everyone applaud, the Kingdom of Wind... is a great place.
The Sand Village, the armed force of the Wind Country that protects itself, is currently at its lowest point in history. Whether it is the top masters, the middle-level or the bottom-level ninjas, there has been a gap and aging.
Moreover, due to economic problems, the village's spiritual defense system collapsed before its physical defense system.
The Sand Village, which was taken advantage of, has no chance to resist a series of subsequent transformation measures. I hope Luosha can keep up with the pace and not fall behind.
Conservative rights holders will be optimized if they refuse to accept reform.
The future of the Sand Village has been seen through, and the same is true for the Wind Kingdom.
The largest country located in the western part of the continent, most of its area is surrounded by desert Gobi.
Chapter 176 Harvest First Then Launch
The land is vast and sparsely populated, and the economic situation is not optimistic.
The budget cuts are partly due to reality, and the daimyo is no fool.
The point is that this country's information isolation is greatly affected by its terrain.
If handled properly, it can at least ensure that there won't be any strange rumors for a few years.
“The template can be directly applied to Rain Country first.
As long as the daimyo voluntarily contributes to the Akatsuki organization's peace ideals, the Wind Country can easily get back on the right track.
As for the nobles... check them first, then make a list and clean them out in order.
Economic development policies can be communicated directly from top to bottom and implemented by ninjas as tools.
