When the Daming Palace was still there, as Hokage, I only had to consider the expenses of one village.
If you don’t have enough money, go and ask the daimyo for it.
As the only military organization in the Fire Country, although the Daming Mansion was in a state of intoxication, it was never stingy towards Konoha.
Now that the Daming Palace is gone, the entire Fire Country's budget needs to be decided by Konoha.
Even for reasons that are still unexplainable, the budgets of the five major countries require the approval of the Hokage to a certain extent.
Originally, according to Shikaku's wish, he had to let it go. After all, these businessmen who rely on Konoha's scientific research department have made a lot of money in the past few years, and they have to peel off at least three layers of skin.
As a result, the Second Scientific Research Department was established, and the first project was the tram plan proposed by Raimon Yueli and Katasuke. Although the project would be very convenient because of the ninjas.
But even so, the cost of building interoperable trams in the other four major countries except Amegakure Village in the Water Country is so high that even the top management of Konoha who have just opened their horizons feel outrageous.
However, when Shikaku showed the money he had collected every year in the past few years and the money earned by the large caravans under Anbu's investigation in figures, several people felt that the numbers were not that big.
At this time, in the Hokage's office in the Hokage Building, the heads of the eight large caravans were crying for their fathers and mothers, saying that they had earned a few hard-earned money.
With both their words and emotions, Minato would have believed them if he hadn't read the information in his hand.
Shikaku who was on the side stepped forward and said directly: "Matsumotoi, using the Kingdom of Tang, the Kingdom of Frost, and the Kingdom of Thunder as its trading routes, has imported and exported sixteen times, and the value of each exported goods is about 13,500 taels. , the average one-time profit is about 89 million taels, which is rounded up to 100 million."
"According to the original contract, the penalty for taking S is the total value of all exported goods before and after, which is 1.35 billion taels. Do you have any objections?"
1.35 billion taels?
This number stunned Obito next to him.
What astronomical figure is this?
It's more than one billion as soon as you open your mouth. This is faster than robbing money!
etc!
Asshole's shit! These bitches actually make 100 million at a time, while only giving themselves a mere 8 million taels? !
"boom!"
Just as he was about to curse, the businessman Matsumotoi who had just been named beside him fell to his knees.
The rabbit died and the fox was sad. The other seven people also foresaw the punishment waiting for them, and they all felt lower and lower for a while.
"Sir! We...we simply can't afford so much money!"
"Hiring ninjas, bandits along the way, management, and eating and drinking for the entire caravan... Hokage-sama, we didn't make much money at all!"
"In this case, it would be better to die..."
"One billion three hundred million taels, even if the whole family is killed and sold, there is still nothing..."
"Hokage-sama...it's unfair!"
…
Amid the cries, Lujiu, who had already anticipated this scene, sneered.
Then he ignored them and read out the fine amounts of the seven people behind him.
It turns out that the amount is from small to large, with the most powerful one at the end. Because the trade route includes the Kingdom of Wind and the Kingdom of Earth, as well as a series of desert greening material exports, the total export amount reaches more than 4 billion.
This scene left Obito dumbfounded. Looking at his previously cooperative accomplices, he felt that these people were simply crazy.
I just wanted to buy a big villa in Konoha, but did these guys want to buy another Konoha?
It costs so much money, will it be used up?
After reading what was in his hand, Lu Jiu looked at a few people and said, "You know how much wealth you have, and you also know the profits from exports."
"In half a day, whether it's money, real estate, luxury goods, or materials, if you don't pay in full, the ANBU will ask you to pay in full. And after this, you will no longer be able to engage in business for five generations."
"Think about it clearly. If the money is gone, you can make it again. After Konoha banned you, the ANBU confiscated it, and you didn't even have a chance to make a comeback."
After the words fell, the eight businessmen who were originally crying stopped talking.
Only then did they understand that facing Konoha's violent institutions from top to bottom, they didn't even have a chance to resist.
It's easy to say when we haven't found out clearly. Nowadays, how many families have been clearly traced by the Anbu. On the premise that they have committed crimes, they have been wiped out and lost their lives. It is just killing the chicken to scare the monkeys.
Acting in accordance with the contract, even if the chicken dies, the monkey will not disperse, and they have no room for bargaining.
"Take it down."
Minato waved his hand, and three ANBU appeared, suppressing all eight of them.
At this time, no one among the eight people came forward to cry about poverty.
They are all smart people walking in the ninja world. When the ninja world was in chaos a few years ago, they were able to survive in the cracks. In this peaceful era, they are smarter than anyone else.
Konoha has the final say over the five major nations, and Konoha has the final say over the entire ninja world.
Compared to the other four major ninja villages, who are they? Not even shit!
It can even be said that...if we were not worried about scaring other caravans because of the ugly appearance, we would just kill them all and devour their property, and there would be no problem.
After a few people left, Minato's eyes turned to his disciples.
"How many did you take?"
Obito lowered his head and hesitated: "Three...four...five..."
"Snapped!"
"How much exactly?"
Minato slapped the table, making Obito shiver.
"Eight! Eighty million taels!"
These words made Lu Jiu on the side sneer: "The total amount of money of those guys just now reached more than 18 billion, and they made more than 100 scams, and it was only 80 million taels?"
Shikaku said and produced a leaflet.
I saw it read:
Adjacent to the commercial street, there is a large luxury villa, overlooking the Hokage Rock in the distance. The latest scientific research department results in a hot and cold barrier, making it possible to enjoy spring all year round and see snow in the summer.
What are you still hesitating about? Uchiha loan, you can have it.
"The latest project of the Uchiha clan. I heard that you were just given the status of a clan member by Shisui. After a discount, there should be some left, right?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Obito waved his hands repeatedly.
"No, no! There really isn't any!"
Obito panicked: "The rest are all from my frugality over the years, and they have nothing to do with those bastards!"
"Originally, I was planning to take out a loan, but Xiao Jiuwei still has an unsettled account of mine, and with the addition of others, it was still a little short of the mark."
Shikaku pressed forward step by step: "So even if Shisui didn't give you a discount, you would have had enough, right? Then besides what you earned by going S, you still have some. If Kyuubi added them all together, they would give you a discount." Is there any left?"
Obito was stunned, his Sharingan looked directly at Shikaku under the bamboo hat, and the Mangekyou was forced out.
Is this person... a devil?
Kakashi on the side slapped himself on the forehead.
After returning to the village, Obito's IQ dropped to a negative number.
"By the way, something happened with Little Kyuubi. It reported you together, so the penalty for cheating together is half for each of you."
(Д)
The unfortunate news came one after another, and Obito was confused.
Fortunately, after a few years of hard work, this is the rhythm that will directly wipe out everything!
If the kaleidoscope hasn't bloomed yet, it will probably bloom from a single magatama to a kaleidoscope in no time.
"Bang."
Obito sat down on the ground, lowered his head and trembled all over.
This made Minato a little worried. Could it be that the shock was too great and he went crazy?
"I... hand it over."
Obito's voice sounded, and when he looked up, he saw tears streaming down his face, and his heart ached so much that he cried in pain.
What to do if you don’t pay?
If you don't pay, continue to run and hang out with Nagato?
In the past, Nagato might have tied himself up, hung him up and beaten him for three days and three nights, and then he was handed back to Konoha by Uzumaki Sora.
Like those businessmen, he understood clearly that if you commit a crime, you cannot be caught, and if you are caught, you can't escape.
Facing a behemoth like Konoha, the best way is to be reasonable. If you don't be reasonable first, then there will be no reason to explain.
Then Shikaku reported the number, and Kakashi directly took out the 'ten' secret private money hidden by Obito from the different space.
This scene made Obito's eyes twitch.
"How did you find out?"
Kakashi replied casually: "A bunch of Lin's photos and messy things. There's just a cubic stone pressed down in an open space. Any fool knows there must be something wrong there, right?"
Obito was silent, but his hands clenched tightly.
endure! Must be patient!
After a wave of fattening, Minato walked up and patted Obito on the shoulder with a sincere voice: "Although you are a bit older, Rin is still young. Making money and getting married is a good thing, but you have to take the right path."
Invisibly, several daggers were thrust straight into Obito's chest, causing him to almost suffer internal injuries.
He raised his head and looked at his teacher: If you can't speak, can you speak less?
…
The matter was resolved, Kakashi took Obito and walked out of the Hokage Building.
Kakashi, who was walking along the way, was still chattering and persuading Obito.
"Such a big house is of no use. It's just warm in winter and cool in summer so you can swim at home. Do ninjas need to swim?"
"Although the workload is less now, and you can't leave the village blatantly, the jobs in the village that deal with garbage, take care of children, and forge steel are still paid..."
"Earn a little bit, and in ten years, you can afford to buy a house, right?"
"Lin will be in her twenties by then, which will be just right."
"Obito... Speaking of which, aren't you a little older?"
Seeing that his friend didn't reply, Kakashi looked over in confusion: "Obito?"
He raised his head slightly, and Obito's kaleidoscope came into view.
"Kakashi...you ****"
After spitting out a series of words, Obito grabbed Kakashi and went directly to the different space.
An hour later, the two came out of the different space.
At this moment, Kakashi's forehead protector was gone, one of his eyes was blue and the other was swollen, blood was bleeding from the corners of his mouth, and there were big bumps on the top of his head.
And Obito wasn't much better, his whole body had turned into a pig's head, and his bamboo hat had long been shattered into pieces.
Just at this time, Nohara Lin also found the Hokage Building and was stunned when she saw the two of them.
"You...had a fight? I heard Obito that you were taken to the Hokage Building by Kakashi, so I rushed over here, but you ended up fighting at the Hokage-sama's place?"
Obito and Kakashi looked at each other.
←_←Lin→_→
After exhaling, Lin put her hands on their shoulders: "It's good to see that you are okay. Why are you still the same after so many years?"
Obito glanced at his best friend: "This bastard, let me prepare... Well... Anyway, this bastard cheated me of my money, and I was lucky enough to earn my hard-earned money..."
Kakashi was about to speak when the wound at the corner of his mouth touched his teeth and he bared his teeth: "Haha... When someone else earns 100 million at a time, and they give you 8 million to run errands, do you still think it's a profit? Stupid Obito, can you be smarter? ?”
"ah!!"
When this was mentioned, Obito became even more crazy.
I thought that he was one of the bosses behind the scenes, and he was fooling Nagato, but now he was fooled by ordinary people.
It’s simply unbearable!
An angry Obito was about to find trouble, but Kakashi stopped him.
"What do you want to do?"
"none of your business!"
→_→←_←
With eyes wide open, Nohara Lin used a lot of strength to separate the two.
Finally, under Kakashi's narration, Lin learned what happened.
Then……
"You want to go to them and ask for money?"
"Yeah." Meek and aggrieved.
"They will definitely not pay any fines you have paid, and there may not be any more. So what do you want to do? Beat them to relieve their anger?"
As soon as Lin finished speaking, Kakashi on the side said: "Then he was caught by the security force, and then he either got the other party's forgiveness or was imprisoned for fifteen days?"
Obito glared at Kakashi: "Shut up! If you weren't such a bastard, would I have been caught?"
Nohara Lin quickly blocked the sight of the two, then looked at Obito and said: "The consequences Kakashi said are certain. Even if you escape in a different space, how will you come back in the future?"
"And in the current situation, the village, teachers and senior officials still need caravans to carry a series of outputs from the scientific research department to various parts of the ninja world."
"If a ninja can attack a caravan at will without being punished, this will affect the views of other caravans."
After the words fell, Obito fell silent.
The world is peaceful, there is no war, there is Lin, and there is this bastard Kakashi.
In a world like this, why would you go out on your own?
But what to do with the money next?
Looking at Lin so close, Obito really couldn't figure out how to make money to buy a big house.
Kakashi was silent for a while, and after thinking about it, he finally said: "I can't use the kaleidoscope's ability without limit, but you can use it frequently because you have transplanted the first-generation cells. In this case, you can still dry transport it. Yes, as long as you don’t run away.”
"But you can't appear openly in other ninja villages. After all, those things didn't happen long ago. So..."
There was silence for a while.
After waiting for a long time without a follow-up, Obito became anxious: "So what? Just tell me!"
Kakashi spread his hands: "So there is nothing we can do for now. Only when the memory of those things fades away can you be free to appear elsewhere."
"In fact, even now, if it weren't for Yun Gao's presence, there would be many people who want to assassinate you."
Nohara Rin was a little worried and looked at Obito to persuade her: "It's okay if you don't have money. We are all still alive now. Compared with so many people at the same time at that time, we are already very lucky."
