Jiraiya returned as quickly as he left.
Regarding the prophecy, he only told Kizaru and not anyone else.
At Kizaru, although Jiraiya didn't get the answer he wanted, his mood improved a lot.
A secret, one person will be out of breath if he carries it, but if two people carry it, it will be much better.
At least, Jiraiya had someone to talk to and discuss.
With Kizaru's request to learn senjutsu, Jiraiya, who felt much more relaxed, hurried back to Mt. Myoki.
Although he and Kizaru had different views on war, Jiraiya felt that Kizaru was right. Strengthening oneself was the best way to cope with the future.
Jiraiya hurriedly returned to Mount Miaomu, partly because of Kizaru's request, and partly because he was preparing to intensify his practice of celestial arts.
After Jiraiya left, Kizaru continued the same rhythm of life, without disturbing his mood and life because of the prophecy.
Kizaru is confident that if he follows his own plan and rhythm, both himself and Konoha will be strong enough to deal with the toad in Mt. Myouki and the family disputes in Otsutsuki.
On the third day after Jiraiya left, Kizaru completed all the preparations for the classification of Ninja School, and the rest was just waiting for the start of school.
At the same time, Kizaru also arranged Kakuzu to work under two consultants, responsible for the accounting supervision of nutritional medicine sales.
For this long-agreed job, Kakuzu didn't waste any time and went straight to work.
Supervisory review of accounts is not difficult for Kakuto. The only thing that makes him uncomfortable is that the income from this job is not enough, only 5 million taels per month.
This amount of money is considered high income in Konoha, but for Kakuzu who make money from bounties, it is too low.
The sudden drop in monthly income made Kakuzu's hatred for Uchiha Madara even stronger. Furthermore, Kakuzu doesn't have a good impression of the Uchiha clan in Konoha Village.
The Second Hokage is right, Uchiha is not a good person!
This kind of thought allowed Kakuto and Danzo to unexpectedly get on with each other, and the two of them even felt like they had met so late.
In order to win over this Kage-level powerhouse that Kizaru calls him, after knowing that Kakuzu was dissatisfied with the income from the accounting supervision job, Danzo specially allocated a sum of funds from the root and arranged a long-term task for him.
This long-term mission is very simple, it is to secretly monitor the Uchiha clan, and the payment is 5 million taels per month, paid once a quarter.
Kakuzu was very happy that he didn't have to leave Konoha and could earn an extra income, so he accepted the task happily.
Kizaru only learned about this mission after the two had reached a deal. Regarding this, Kizaru could only sigh, his uncle still knows how to play! Use public money to earn private favor.
Regarding his uncle's behavior of pretending to be a public servant for personal gain, Kizaru didn't say much after learning about it. It was not because of his position, but because such behavior was common among Konoha's top brass.
In other words, not only Konoha, but most organizations in the world behave like this.
Moreover, as a department leader with an independent establishment, it is Danzo's right to spend the department's funds.
Department funds can be wasted or overspent, but they can never be left in balance.
Once there is a departmental fund balance during the year-end review, the department's budget for the next year will be reduced.
When such a situation occurs, it is the leader's dereliction of duty and the subordinates' incompetence!
Naturally, they wouldn't say much to these well-educated monkeys.
After arranging the affairs of the ninja school and Kakuzu, Kizaru, who had nothing to do for the time being, patiently waited for Jiraiya's return. He wanted to see what tricks the old toad over at Mt. Myoboku was playing.
While Kizaru was waiting for Jiraiya to return, a little surprise, a profitable business, came to his door.
Kizaru Investment, the Bandai toy store run by Scorpio's parents, received a special business one morning.
The person who came to the door was a middle-aged man. Unlike the parents who came to buy toys for their children, this man wanted more. He brought a big order.
It requires 2,000 toys at one time, and this is just the first payment, there may be more later.
Of course, purchasing so many toys at one time, the middle-aged businessman also made a request. He wanted a lower price.
Faced with the big business that came to their door, Scorpion's parents wanted to do it, but they did not make a decision in private. Instead, they reported the matter to Kizaru specifically.
After asking the businessman to come back the next day for consideration, Xia's parents found Kizaru and told the story in detail.
"Oh ho ho! This is a good thing, just agree to it." Kizaru smiled after listening to the story.
The couple looked at each other, and as the husband, Yousha raised questions and difficulties.
"Kizaru-sama, making ninja puppets takes a lot of time. The businessman wants 2,000 toys at a time, which will take at least half a month, and it will also delay the business in the village."
"And the price. The businessman wants us to give him a lower price. What do you think is appropriate?"
Yusha's problem is indeed a difficult problem for ninjas who are used to fighting and killing.
But for Kizaru, who has modern thinking, this is all a small problem.
After organizing his words in his mind, Kizaru started to give instructions.
"I have an idea for the production of toys. You can break down the puppet manufacturing process into different steps and modules, and at the same time develop specific data and drawings for the puppet's split modules.
With specific data and drawings, we can recruit a group of carpenters to manufacture the modules that make up the puppet. You only need to be responsible for product design and quality inspection of finished products. "
As Kizaru spoke, both Yusha and Murasaki fell into thinking. As elite puppet masters, they quickly understood Kizaru's thoughts.
Clapping his palms excitedly, Yousha looked at Kizaru and said, "Yes, there is no problem at all! If you do this, the output will not be a problem."
Um! Children can be taught!
Looking at Yusha, Kizaru nodded with satisfaction.
"As for the price, you first calculate the use of wood, carpenter's wages, and other hard costs. After calculating the cost, we will set the price."
"I understand, Kizaru-sama." After nodding, Yusha continued, "Zano and I will make these as soon as possible."
"If you are not good at negotiating business orders, I can arrange for someone to do it for you."
"If you can, that would be great." Regarding these business matters, Yusha and Zino are indeed not very good at it, nor do they like it very much.
If possible, the couple prefers to work on new toys in the studio.
"I understand, you should go back first! I will send someone over in the afternoon."
"OK!"
After watching the couple Yusa and Murasaki leave, Kizaru, who was sitting in his seat, thought of a candidate, but he was not sure yet whether he was suitable.
Shintaro Shimura, one of Kizaru's younger brothers, is also the only one who has not become a ninja.
Kizaru knew that he was learning business management from the Third Elder, and it was said that he was learning pretty well.
Things will be done on the same day.
Kizaru didn't waste time and asked Sister Keiko to call Shintaro over.
"Brother Kizaru, what do you want from me?" Shintaro asked curiously as he walked into the room.
"Do you know the Bandai Toy Store in the village?" Kizaru asked with a smile as he looked at Huang Jintaro, who had grown a lot taller and was trying his best to look mature.
He nodded and followed the third elder, Shintaro, who knew the family business well, Zhangkou came.
"I know that the store is family owned, and we hold 50% of the shares."
"A businessman is interested in the toys in the store and wants to purchase a large amount of them. I have discussed it with Xie Xie's parents and are ready to take this big order and try to cooperate in the long term."
"Brother Kizaru, do you want me to take charge of this matter?" Shintaro became a little excited after guessing Kizaru's intention.
Nodding, Kizaru asked with a smile: "Are you confident? Shintaro."
"I do! I can definitely run the store well." Shintaro said confidently.
"The businessman wants 2,000 toys for his first order and wants us to lower the price. What do you think about it?" Kizaru asked deliberately.
"If we want this much, the shop needs to recruit people. I can recruit a group of familiar carpenters. As for the price, I need to calculate the cost first. In terms of price, my suggestion is to try to ensure a 100% gross profit." Shintaro thought about the answer. road.
"You have indeed grown a lot! Shintaro!" Kizaru praised after hearing Shintaro's answer.
Touching his head in embarrassment, Shintaro said humbly: "I'm still far behind, Brother Kizaru."
"I'll leave this matter to you. You go to the Bandai Toy Store in the afternoon. I've already told Yusha that I will arrange for someone to go over and assist them with business matters."
"Okay, Brother Kizaru."
"Also, remember one thing when negotiating. After the businessman gets the goods from us, he must sell them under the name of Bandai Toys. This must be written into the contract."
After thinking about Kizaru's request, Shintaro finally understood.
"Brother Kizaru, you want to build a Bandai brand."
With an appreciative look, Kizaru said: "Yes, I think there is a big market and profit behind ninja puppet toys."
"I understand, just leave it to me without any worries!" Shintaro made a promise with a serious expression.
"Yeah! I believe you!" Kizaru said encouragingly.
After handing over Bandai's business affairs to Shintaro, Kizaru wanted to be on the safe side and have double insurance. After communicating with Shintaro, he found the third elder in private.
Kizaru told the third elder who was responsible for the management of the family industry all about Bandai and the subsequent development plan.
As an old fox who has been working hard in the business world for decades, the third elder smelled the smell of money from Kizaru's development plan.
Making money, making big money, this is the third elder's favorite thing.
The third elder was still a little worried about Kizaru entrusting such a big business to Shintaro, and wanted to take action personally.
Kizaru persuaded the third elder and just asked him to keep an eye on it secretly.
For the sake of Kizaru and the first elder (Shintaro is the grandson of the first elder), the third elder agreed to Kizaru's request.
The third elder was responsible for Bandai's affairs, so Kizaru felt relieved and only needed to pay attention from time to time.
This is the benefit of having talented people around you. There is always the right person to solve troublesome problems. As the future leader of a faction, Kizaru only needs to wait to reap success, or bear failure.
Good things came one after another. Kizaru had just arranged Bandai's business, and Jiraiya, who had returned to Mt. Myoboku for five days, returned to Konoha.
Jiraiya came back with good news. Miaomu Mountain was willing to teach Kizaru the magic of immortality, but they wanted to see Kizaru first.
This request is in line with Kizaru's wishes. He also wants to meet the great toad sage who guided and helped the Otsutsuki brothers defeat and seal Otsutsuki Kaguya thousands of years ago and has the ability to predict the future.
What kind of charm does a toad have that can make the Six Paths Sage Otsutsuki Hagoromo and his younger brother Otsutsuki Hamura, two filial sons, join forces to seal away his biological mother?
But there is one thing to say, Otsutsuki Kaguya's mother's problems are not small.
Let’s not talk about sacrificing humans to sacred trees. If you say you want to sacrifice, just sacrifice! Why do you have to sacrifice the woman your son likes? This is the only one missing, right?
So say it! If the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law is not handled well, even a god will fall into trouble!
Thinking of this, Kizaru couldn't help but feel happy. Fortunately, he was an orphan!
After agreeing to the request brought by Jiraiya, Kizaru notified his uncle and Tsunade, and then followed Jiraiya to Mt. Myoboku.
Of course, he didn't go there by walking or flying, but by using psychic techniques to go to Mt. Miaomu. (For convenience, the contract was temporarily signed.)
Falling from the sky, Kizaru and Jiraiya landed smoothly. In front of them, the two toad sages Fukasaku and Shima, and their son Toadbunta, were waiting here early.
"Kizaru, this is Fukasaku Sage, and this is Shima Sage. Behind them is Gamabunta, my good friend." Standing next to Kizaru, Jiraiya took the initiative to introduce, "This is Kizaru, My junior brother, the golden flash of Konoha, the new god of ninja."
When Jiraiya started to introduce, the two Toad Sages were already looking at Kizaru.
After hearing the new ninja god's comments, although the expressions of the two Toad Immortals did not change, they became more serious about it.
The two Toad Immortals, who have lived for more than 800 years, have seen the power of Senju Hashirama, so through this nickname, they can probably understand the power of Kizaru.
Humans will always have top-notch experts born. What a terrifying race!
Sighing in his heart, Fukasaku Sennin spoke, "The strong man of mankind, the great master wants to meet you."
"That big old man is the Great Toad Sage, the boss of Miaomu Mountain. Don't offend him." Jiraiya reminded him in a low voice as he stepped closer to Kizaru's side.
Smiling and nodding, Kizaru said, "I am the most polite person."
Are you polite? How about asking those old men in the village?
If it were somewhere else, Jiraiya would have complained a long time ago.
"Come with me!" Fukasaku Sage said invitingly, not paying attention to Jiraiya and Kizaru's whispers.
After saying that, he and his wife jumped on his son's body.
The three toads walked in front, Kizaru and Jiraiya walked behind, and the group of creatures walked towards the palace where the big toad sage was.
At this time, the Great Toad Immortal in the palace had opened his usually squinted eyes, with a meaningful expression on his face.
"It's so scary!"
