Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't help but shudder as he seemed to sense the strong warning in Gusugi Bushui's mouth.
"What the young governor means is..."
"Sandaime, you may not like to hear some words, but I still want to remind you that the attitude of the Fire Country daimyo and the Furusugi family towards ninjas, specifically in Konoha Village, may not be completely in line with your wishes. . Naruto is the representative of Konoha Village, but it is not the same as Konoha Village, and it is not the same thing as all Konoha ninjas. In most cases, you have a relationship of one person and two sides, but Naruto will always abdicate, And Konoha Village is still there."
"The Furusugi family will always be allies of Konoha Village, but... they may not always be on my side. Is that what you mean?"
"It's a little off, but the general direction is right. The conflict between the Senju family and its successors and the Uchiha family is your business. Gusugi... has no intention to get involved. To be honest, it's up to the Sandaime to It is also a good thing for us to talk to others, but this does not mean that when there is a dispute within the Konoha ninjas, they will cooperate with your actions to combat the influence of the opponents."
"I...understand!"
Gu Shan Bu Shui's words were very revealing.
Eliminate the opposition led by the Uchiha family in Konoha Village and stabilize the situation. The Furusugi family will not care. If Sarutobi Hiruzen himself gets out of control and is usurped by Shimura Danzo or some other careerist, the same will not happen. Tube.
Always support the choices of Konoha ninjas, and it doesn't matter who the current Hokage is, even if that person is Danzo Shimura who he doesn't like, or even a member of the Uchiha clan.
If the previous daimyo or the current daimyo of the Fire Country can be moved by their personal friendship, Gushan Bushui is also a guy who cares very much about human relationships, but his business-oriented style is also true.
Back to the subject, back to the issue of the Uchiha family and the Sharingan. The two also chatted for a long time, exchanged opinions and views, and after roughly determining their respective boundaries and restricted areas, the slightly serious atmosphere also relaxed.
In the long history of the Uchiha family, they have never used anything like the Curse Seal and Caged Bird to limit the performance of the clan members and prevent the leakage of blood inheritance limits. The most fundamental reason is that they were very strong in the past. Except for the Senju clan, No one can go against them.
The difficulty of opening the Sharingan is much higher than that of the Byakugan. Therefore, the measures taken by the Uchiha family are not to restrict, but to spread it to the greatest extent.
The Uchiha bloodline that has been lost outside has not been systematically trained, and the possibility of opening its eyes is extremely low. After two or three generations, it will be lost to everyone.
But if a distant relative accidentally opens his eyes, the Uchiha family will send someone to take him and his close relatives back to the family, bear the Uchiha surname, and become a member of the top ninja clan in the ninja world.
Strictly speaking, the Uchiha family is a kinship group that uses the Sharingan as a bond to gather together for warmth, rather than a ninja clan in the traditional sense.
It is precisely because of this enlightened strategy that the Uchiha family can continuously replenish fresh blood and survive the fittest, so that they can maintain their status as the strongest ninja clan in the ninja world without declining.
Are those distant relatives who have unexpectedly opened their eyes willing to change their names and become Uchiha clan members?
This shouldn't be a problem at all.
This is like a black uncle on the African continent in his previous life who suddenly learned that he had a white grandfather in the United States who was also a billionaire. Because he had no heirs, he wanted to take him over to enjoy the blessings and inherit the family property. No individual can resist this temptation. .
During the Warring States Period, ordinary people's lives were precarious and they had no food to eat. Being able to survive to adulthood and leave heirs was considered a success.
In comparison, the survival rate of the Uchiha clan is obviously much higher. Having a great ninja clan provide shelter is much better than struggling to survive.
At that time, the Uchiha family was very strong. No one dared to hide it, and no one dared to deceive. The noble Uchiha with the Sharingan was naturally superior to others.
In the Third Ninja War, Uchiha Obito gave the Sharingan to Hatake Kakashi. If Uchiha Madara was alive, Hatake Kakashi had only two options, or change his name to Uchiha Kakashi. , or hand over the Sharingan, if not, you will be completely destroyed from body to spirit.
Ever since the Battle of the Valley of the End, when Uchiha Madara was neither alive nor dead, and Senju Hashirama also died of illness, the atmosphere in Konoha Village has been a bit wrong.
Uchiha Obito's body was not found, and nothing was found afterwards. Uchiha Shisui also disappeared mysteriously. What happened before and after the night of the genocide was a pile of bad debts. No one can figure out how many people were fishing in troubled waters. , and how many Uchiha clan members took advantage of the chaos to escape.
At first, the Leaf Village did not feel that this was such an important matter. As long as the Uchiha family no longer existed, all grudges would naturally disappear.
Now it seems that it is not the end, but just the beginning of the grudges on the other side.
"Finally, Sir, could you tell me where the child Sora is now?"
"If nothing else, it will be in the hands of Orochimaru. You...be careful, that person's caliber is not just that of a rebellious ninja hiding in hiding..."
The danger level of Orochimaru was too high, and with Gusugi Fusui's current abilities, he didn't dare to overestimate him. If he hadn't placed a deep backhand on him a few years ago, he would have really not dared to deal with him.
The two of them chatted for a long time before Sarutobi Hiruzen left.
At this time, the practice of Xiang Phosphorus has ended.
"Father, why is the Third Generation here?"
"It's a little thing a few years ago. Come here to verify it. Don't worry, it's nothing important..."
The problem in Konoha Village is actually very obvious. An interest group that has been established for a long time has gradually shown signs of disunity because it does not have a common program.
Sarutobi Hiruzen may not have seen it so clearly, but he also happened to put forward the concept of the will of fire and the spirit of Konoha, which pointed the direction for the slightly confused Konoha ninjas.
However, those... are too immature and cannot fool an ambitious man like Shimura Danzo.
The contradiction has always been there. The difference between Shimura Danzo and Sarutobi Hiruzen is not necessarily a conflict between the militant faction and the moderate faction.
When it comes to external issues, both Sarutobi Hiruzen and Shimura Danzo are actually very tough. The former pays attention to courtesy before attacking, and assesses the situation, while the latter is relatively domineering and arrogant, but the degree is different, but the essence is the same.
The most fundamental issue is still how to treat one's own people.
When a huge village got sick, Hiruzen Sarutobi advocated saving as much as possible and adopting conservative treatment methods in an effort to save everyone.
Shimura Danzo did not hesitate to scrape bones to treat poison, cut flesh to mend sores, and directly cut off the lesions, even if some normal flesh and blood were discarded. To fight outside and secure inside, I would rather kill a hundred by mistake than let one go.
Governing a big country is like cooking a small dish, and pays attention to the inner saint and the outer king. Sarutobi Hiruzen is a follower of this; Shimura Danzo takes it a step further, and even wants to directly defeat other ninja villages and form a super power. , the pyramid structure defended by many small forces made Konoha Village the de facto top force in the ninja world, instead of being on an equal footing with the other four major ninja villages.
In this case, the problem becomes serious.
It is impossible to dominate without going through a brutal war and trampling all competitors underfoot, so Danzo Shimura will spare no effort to strengthen his combat effectiveness.
However, on the night of genocide a few years ago, the "Darkness of the Ninja World" suffered a major setback, and I don't know how much energy it has left.
Of course, these have nothing to do with Kosovo. Her stage is in the future "Konoha Collapse Plan", the battle with members of the "Akatsuki" organization, and the Fourth Ninja War.
"Father, you brought Hiiragi and the others here to visit the school. Have you decided that they should go to a ninja school?"
"Um!"
Gu Shan Bu Shui nodded,
"There is something wrong with the atmosphere of Inaba Academy. It is a training ground for civilians. There are no grades in name. In fact, the three of them, Xiao Hiiragi, went to school and have already crushed the others. This... is not good. !”
It's slightly better in Konoha Village.
The children here cannot tell the huge gap between the ordinary ninja children and the children of the Fusagi family.
Also, class consciousness is a little thinner here.
"It is very important for the direct members of the Gushan family to treat other people as human beings and have less of a sense of being superior to others. When the gap between people is so large, it is too easy to cause discomfort to children. A good influence.”
Xiao Hiiragi, Xiao Jing and Xiao Si have never experienced the depression and hesitation that Xiang Lian had when he was a child. They were born with a golden key in their mouths, which is not enough to describe how pampered they are.
They are about to go to school. The three little guys may not have any idea about money. They only have what they think and basically take and ask for. There is a big problem in judging the value of foreign objects.
In Konoha Village, which is far away from the clan, it is still important for them to be exposed to a more down-to-earth life without the direct control of their parents.
"I... probably understand!"
Xiang Ling chuckled a few times and agreed very clearly,
"I've been practicing too much lately, so I and Ino haven't gone to the snack shop as often. I just found out yesterday that the price of ice cream, cakes and fruits at the shop I usually go to has increased by quite a lot. The supply of supplies is obviously very sufficient, why? Will prices go up?”
"The demand for things is so great, and too much money has been accumulated in Konoha Village in a short period of time. For things like money, it only makes sense to have enough goods to redeem purchasing power. To put it bluntly, the output in Konoha Village is insufficient, and in the short term It’s the result of making too much money within a period of time, unable to spend it, and flooding the market in large quantities.”
"I don't quite understand!"
"It's because the Konoha ninjas have been working too hard recently, making too much money, but not having any good products for consumption."
Inflation, hindered consumption, and insufficient output.
This is a method similar to the "scissors", diluting the wealth value of Konoha Village, spending more money and buying less things, allowing the Furusugi family, the output supplier, to actually benefit Konoha. The benefits that the ninjas received after completing their hard work.
Gu Shan Bu Shui simply explained a few words, but he didn't expect Xiang Ling's little brain of early ten years old to be able to understand such a complex economic activity.
"It's enough that you know that there is such a thing. To put it bluntly, the governance methods of Konoha Village are too eager for quick success and want to reduce the scale of debt more quickly at less cost. In many cases, it goes against economics too much Laws are not very effective. Doing twice the result with half the effort is in vain, and may even have the opposite effect. Those who easily deny the laws of economics, history and human nature, and think they can surpass them, are not so superficial that they cannot recognize it. Essentially, he is an arrogant idiot who doesn't know how much he weighs."
"Stay in awe, I understand!"
These, Gu Shan Bu Shui taught Xiang Phosphorus before.
Especially for a family like the Furusugi family, which stands at the top of the ninja world, if they lose their respect for the basic laws and think that they can control everything and are omnipotent, they will not be far away from defeat.
"Okay, it's not appropriate to talk too much about teaching a lesson. That's it for today. After you go back, wash up and take your sisters for a walk. Every time there is a chuunin exam, Konoha Village is very lively. , there are many small vendors coming to do business, it’s like a temple fair.”
"Yeah! It's a little different from the one back home."
"The soil and water support the people. It is a good thing for children to go out more and gain experience."
------------------
When the lanterns first came on, Xiang Phosphorus, who was wearing a light summer dress, held Xiao Hiiragi's hand and stopped her from running around. The other two sisters followed behind hand in hand, curiously looking at the products on the dazzling street vendors.
A few minutes later, in the shadows swaying under the lantern fire in the distance, two girls had been waiting for a long time.
"Fragrant phosphorus, this way, this way!"
"Ino, Sakura, I'm sorry to keep you waiting. It took a long time for the three sisters to change clothes."
After Xiang Ling brought her sisters closer, she looked around.
"Uzami and Hinata aren't here?"
"Hinata said there is something urgent at home, and she won't be able to leave for a while. She will probably arrive late. Uzami doesn't know, she is worried, and she seems to have something to do."
"Oh! Let's go play first!"
As graduation approaches, most of my classmates feel the pressure.
Not many people are eliminated from the graduation exam every year, but it is not entirely zero.
Even, there are only a few who become ninjas after graduation.
How to successfully realize your dream and become a respected ninja in the future is not easy.
Even Uchiha Sasuke, a talented and arrogant person, began to calm down and practice hard, and the pressure on others became even greater.
"This...your three younger sisters are growing up so fast. Last time I saw them, they were still a little bit old. Now they are able to go out and play by themselves."
Haruno Sakura pinched Xiao Hiiragi's little face very happily, and said hello to the shy Xiao Jing and Xiao Si.
Just when a group of people were having a great time in the night market, a sneaky figure followed a few people. The messy blond hair and shit-yellow shirt were so conspicuous in the less distinctive night market. .
"What is that idiot doing? Doesn't he think we didn't find him?"
Unable to bear it any longer, Kaoru whispered to Ino.
