Chapter 398 Study Hard and Make Progress Every Day
Chapter 398 Study hard and make progress every day
Although Konoha Village is called a village, in this world, it can be said to be a relatively prosperous town. Around Konoha, there are many real small villages dotted around it.
Namikaze Minato spent nearly a day and night investigating the situation in all the surrounding villages.
Indeed, just as Ye You guessed, there were businessmen purchasing cattle at high prices.
But this is only on the surface. The importance of cattle to small farmers is self-evident. Even if they are purchased at a high price, few farmers will sell their cattle and do this kind of thing to make a profit.
Therefore, behind the scenes, there will be gangsters who often go to the homes of farmers who are unwilling to sell their cattle to "visit" and "persuad" them.
Usually, the vicious gangsters go to the farmers' homes, without being rude or threatening. They just eat and sleep at their homes every day, and then persuade them to sell their cattle.
Farmers are helpless, but the purchase price is indeed good, three times higher than what is on the market.
Therefore, they all chose to sell, but there were no complaints.
Everything seemed calm.
This is the case of small households without power.
Some farmers who have attached themselves to local gentry, these are relatively wealthy farmers, will sign a contract. The content is roughly that the gentry will protect their agricultural production, but the surplus grain can only be sold to them, and the price is relatively fair. .
For the rich peasants, there was no conflict of interest. It should be said that there was only benefit, so they all readily agreed.
The last type of people are those who own the most fertile land in the local area. Minato remembers that Ye You used one word to describe this type of people - landlords.
Most landowners have secret contact with people wearing gray clothes, whom they call "the messenger."
Judging from the clues, Minato can conclude that the envoy is the subordinate sent by the daimyo.
At this point, things have suddenly become clear.
The speculation was confirmed. It was indeed the daimyo who was operating secretly in order to completely control Konoha's food supply chain.
The soldiers and horses have not moved, but the food and grass go first.
The same goes for ninja combat.
The importance of logistics needs no introduction.
In terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation, although clothing ranks first, it is only a requirement of moral etiquette. Physically, "food" is the first.
"Using the chaos of the Third War, do you want to turn Konoha into a puppet?"
Minato's eyes were dark, and his ideology gradually changed.
Ninjas, in the past, must serve a certain ruler. Otherwise, it has no value.
Earning commissions in the form of tasks is the best way to reflect this.
During the execution of the "task system", the idea of "task-oriented" will gradually invade the ninja's values. It is felt that only completing the task is the ultimate meaning of the ninja's existence, and finally it becomes deeply rooted in the heart.
Hatake Kakashi's father was sprayed to death because he gave up his mission to save his companions.
Minato also once questioned, is the mission... really that important? Is it something that must be put first?
He briefly described the investigation in the chat room.
"Aozora: What are you going to do now?"
"Yellow Flash: Just thinking."
Ninjas are the sword of battle.
This method of combining macro control and micro planning is impossible.
It is not a problem that can be solved simply by violence.
What is needed now is construction and development, not repression and aggression.
This is also a battlefield that is not inferior to the three wars.
For this group of ninjas, the difficulty is even worse.
"Aozora: You can communicate with Kirado about this kind of thing."
It's not that Kira has much experience, but in the near future CE era, Kira, as the white commander of ZAFT, has countless think tanks around him.
Whether it is economic, social, humanistic psychology, etc., many issues can be given very valuable reference opinions.
"neet-hime: Shine, Minato!"
"neet-hime: "The Rise of Konoha""
"[] (Sora): Speaking of which, your biggest enemies are aliens. And your "Sealing the Ghouls" also proves from the side that there is a different world similar to the underworld in your dimension."
"Chiba's Fallen Holy Black Cat: By the way, Minato, Yuko's chat room, that will definitely be useful to you now."
"Yellow Flash: Thank you everyone."
"Yellow flash: It's for the sub-chat room, I don't plan to use it yet."
It's not time yet, Minato thought.
"Aozora: But Minato doesn't need to worry too much. After all, ninjas have power. With it, many problems are no longer problems."
"Aozora: The most important thing is to emancipate the mind."
Ye You felt that he had to add something more,
"Qingkong: Study hard and make progress every day."
"neetji: study hard and make progress every day. Oh"
Minato put away the scroll and walked towards the bright sun.
The battle has just begun.
...
"Sakura-chan, do you think that old woman looks particularly foxy?"
Sakura's big eyes blinked, not understanding that Kallen suddenly said Minato again, "Old woman? Foxy?"
"He's the one we met yesterday at a family restaurant. He always talks in an old-fashioned way, as if he knows everything."
Sakura remembered, "You mean Shajo Aika..."
Seeing Kallen's increasingly unfriendly eyes, Sakura timidly swallowed the word "sister" at the end.
"Hey, Sakura, don't you think that old woman is very dangerous?" Kallen said with narrowed eyes.
"What danger?"
Although she didn't know what Kallen was talking about, Sakura followed her words and asked.
"She will definitely become our enemy."
"ah?"
Kallen touched her chin and said seriously: "This is my intuition as a woman, please believe me."
"Ah...oh. Well...I believe Kallen."
Sakura smiled awkwardly but politely.
"Think about it, don't you think it's strange for a woman to invite a boy to her home after only meeting her for less than a day?"
"To put it this way, it is indeed a bit..."
"Brother Ye You, it's true that he would be tempted by that kind of woman."
"Huh? Brother Ye You was tempted?" Xiao Ying was surprised.
"Didn't you also see it in the chat room? Brother Ye You is at her house now."
"So - ah! Gu, why are you hitting me on the head?" Sakura put her head in her hands and looked at Kallen weakly.
"That's why, don't you think Sister Jeanne is too pitiful? She was so looking forward to the arrival of her master, but ended up getting involved with another woman the next day."
Karen's tone was quite indignant.
"No, I have to think of a way."
"any solution?"
"Aren't you thinking about it?" Kallen's eyes suddenly lit up and she looked at the crystal ball in her hand, "In ancient times, a great man once said that only by knowing oneself and the enemy can one be victorious. We can get her into the chat room first. "
