"You Konoha are simply bandits!"
Qing Fang slapped the table and stood up, yelling at Ze Feng loudly.
In addition to the high price of 600 million taels, they actually want Turtle Island!
But in addition to condemning Zefeng's behavior.
He couldn't do anything to Ze Feng.
Is it possible to take action here?
Can't beat it!
As for Hefeng, he likes to see Qing Fang looking down on him and unable to kill him.
In fact, Yunyin Village can choose to continue fighting.
It's just that the price is far greater than this transaction.
Tutai saw this and quickly held down the angry Qing Fang.
The issue of Turtle Island was discussed.
After negotiation between both parties.
As long as Kumogakure and Konoha can sign a peace agreement and become allies.
Yunyin Village is willing to open up access to Turtle Island.
Allow Konoha ninjas to land on the island.
But the condition is that Turtle Island must still be raised in Yunyin Village.
It cannot be allowed to leave the waters of the Kingdom of Thunder.
Zephyr also happily accepted this.
Because strictly speaking, what he needs is not Turtle Island, but the ruins on Turtle Island.
Placing Turtle Island in the Land of Thunder also reduces maintenance costs.
Saved expenses.
that's all.
Hefeng and Qingfang reached an agreement.
Trade in the Land of Iron three days later.
Hand the money with one hand and Kirabi with the other.
Mifune, the general of the Iron Kingdom, naturally became the notary of the peace agreement.
On the way back to the room, Hizashi and Kakashi's moods were like the sea swept by a storm, unable to calm down.
They never dreamed that Hefeng would actually negotiate this matter!
Not only did he get access to Turtle Island.
And he also extorted 600 million taels of real money from Yunyin Village!
This kind of thing simply subverted their cognition.
You know, even at the end of the Third Ninja War, Konoha Village became the winner.
Didn't receive any compensation.
No……
Not just the Third Ninja War.
At the end of the First Ninja War and the Second Ninja War, they did not receive any compensation.
"That's six hundred million taels, which is enough to improve Konoha's financial pressure for a long time."
Hizashi took a breath of cold air and kept gesturing with numbers in his hand.
Even the great names of the Fire Country have never been so generous.
It would be good to provide tens of millions of military funds a year.
Konoha's main economic income still has to rely on ninjas like them to make money through entrusted tasks.
I just don’t know how the people of Hidden Cloud Village will feel when they find out that the tailed beast in Kirabi is gone.
"The result this time really exceeded our expectations."
"If it were the Third Hokage..."
Kakashi couldn't help but complain.
If it were Sarutobi Hiruzen, it's hard to imagine that he would fight for Konoha's interests in this kind of matter.
However, if you can firmly grasp the weaknesses of Yunyin Village, you can make a lot of money.
I guess in all of Konoha, only Zephyr can do it.
"I feel like I can imagine how dumbfounded the Third Hokage was when he found out about this."
…
As for Yunyin Village, when they think of the high cost of 600 million taels, Qingfang and Tutai feel their hearts aching.
It still hurts a lot.
Simply ask General Mifune to see if he can persuade Zefeng again.
Reduce the price some more.
On the one hand, Mifune did feel that 600 million taels was too exaggerated.
On the other hand, I also felt a little sorry for Yunyin Village.
After all, he was one of the five great ninja villages. When had he ever suffered such injustice?
Out of compassion for the less privileged.
Mifune arrived at Zefeng's room late at night.
"Mr. Zephyr."
Although Zefeng was only fifteen years old, he still used the title sir out of respect for Konoha.
Zefeng was not disgusted with Mifune's arrival.
"Please come in quickly, I just have something I want to discuss with you."
"Discuss with me?" Mifune raised his eyebrows, walked into Zefeng's room, and sat down on his knees.
In addition to Zephyr, Kakashi and Hizashi also happened to be here.
The four of them sat down around the kotatsu.
"After living here for the past two days, I noticed a problem." Zefeng got straight to the point, "There seems to be no fresh vegetables in the Iron Country, and there are very few types of fruits."
"I think this kind of eating habit is not very healthy."
Hearing this, Mifune looked at Zefeng, and then looked down at the food on the table.
His face couldn't help but look a little embarrassed.
He thought that Zephyr was blaming them for their lack of hospitality in the Iron Country.
So he quickly explained to the three people.
Because of the season and inconvenient transportation, it is difficult for them to get so-called vegetables and fruits.
They go above and beyond when it comes to food preparation.
"Well, you misunderstood, Mifune-sama, I didn't mean to blame you."
"What I want to say is, have you ever thought about obtaining vegetables, fruits and other ingredients through trading?"
"Trade?" Mifune frowned, then shook his head, "It's not that I haven't thought about this problem, but the Iron Country is not rich, unlike your Fire Country, which has strong economic strength."
"Furthermore, we have snow all year round and the roads are rugged. Even if there are so-called fresh vegetables, they are often stale by the time they are delivered."
"More importantly, no one is willing to trade with us."
Mifune did not hide the situation in the Iron Country.
Although they have rich iron ore and coal resources, in this era, they are basically of no use.
Even if there is, the demand in each country is not large. Either they can find substitutes, or their own production is sufficient.
There is no need to conduct trade with a country like the Iron Kingdom.
Even when Zephyr proposed this idea, both Hizashi and Kakashi had question marks in their minds.
I don’t know what this guy Ze Feng is planning.
"This is the design drawing I drew, take a look at it first." Hefeng was not in a hurry to explain, but took some drawings from the side.
Place it on the table for Mifune to see.
The thing painted on it is none other than a railway and a rough prototype of a train.
"What's this?"
The result was just as Zefeng thought. Looking at the things in his hands, Mifune became confused.
"This thing is called a railroad, that one is a train."
"Simply a means of transportation."
"With this kind of transportation, it only takes about a day to get from the Land of Fire to the Land of Iron."
"Transportation issues for fresh vegetables can be guaranteed."
Then, Zephyr explained his thoughts to Mifune.
The Fire Nation will provide food and other daily necessities to the Iron Nation.
And buy their iron ore, coal and other resources.
used in the construction of this vehicle.
Thus establishing trade relations.
Wait until Hefeng finished explaining his initial thoughts.
No matter it was Mifune, Kakashi or Hizashi, all of them gasped.
"Wait, wait a minute..."
Especially Mifune, a general of the Iron Kingdom, he considers himself a leader who has seen the world.
He even had fun chatting and laughing with the shadows from various villages.
but……
For this plan and idea of Zephyr.
I still felt an unprecedented shock.
The most important thing is that he doesn't understand why He Feng would do such a thing.
What benefit does this kind of thing bring to Konoha?
No matter how you look at it, the beneficiary of the trade mentioned by Ze Feng is their Iron Country, right?
Could it be that there is some trap here?
"If I want to talk about the benefits, for us ninjas, it only takes two or three days to go from the Land of Fire to the Land of Iron."
"But for civilians who are not ninjas, this journey may only take ten days and a half."
"You might even encounter robbers and bandits during this period."
"Significantly increased risk."
"If you hire ninjas to protect yourself, the cost will be an issue again."
"But if there is a means of transportation such as trains, it will not only save the fatigue of the journey, but it will also be more convenient."
"And this kind of railway will not only be used for trade between the Fire Country and the Iron Country."
"I hope this kind of railway can cover the entire ninja world."
"Both ninjas and civilians can use this means of transportation."
Hefeng explained his true thoughts.
But from Mifune's point of view, this kind of thing is simply a fantasy.
No, it's completely nonsense.
The Iron Nation is a neutral country and can still benefit from it, so it might agree.
But other ninja villages are hostile to Konoha, right?
How could they allow something like a railway to penetrate directly into their hinterland?
However, Zephyr knew Mifune would say that.
He spread his hands and his eyes glowed like never before.
"Wouldn't this kind of problem not be a problem as long as the entire ninja world is unified?"
"As long as the ninja world is completely unified, things like railways can deepen the bonds between people."
"It can also provide ordinary people with travel convenience and safety."
However, Hefeng became more serious about his ideals.
Mifune, Kakashi, and Hizashi felt like thunderbolts exploding in their hearts.
He stared at Zefeng dumbfounded, unable to say a word for a long time.
