Hokage: Ten-year-old Kaleidoscope, the beginning of betraying Konoha

From the very beginning, Natsume set the tone for the rights of the entire [Yanyin Village].

The supreme leadership, decision-making power, and military power all belong to oneself.

All ninjas in the village are dispatched by themselves.No one else is allowed to accuse the military power!

And under this tone.

For all other rights related to people's livelihood, Natsume has given them a lot of freedom and handed them over to others.

Even the financial control and scheduling rights of the village.

They all graciously let them out.

After all, to build a village well, there are too many aspects that need to be involved.

Just the daily financial income, expenditure, distribution... etc., are enough to make people feel dizzy.

Natsume didn't have the energy to settle accounts carefully.

You only need to set the general direction and grasp the degree of financial expenditure.

Therefore, even though I 'borrowed' a total of 14800 million taels of silver from the vaults of [Konoha] and [Yanyin].

But there is no lavish spending of money.

Instead, this large sum of money was deposited into the 'Yanyin Village treasury'.

The elders in the clan who are in charge of coordinating the construction of the new village will control the distribution and help build the village.

At the same time, Natsume's side.

Uchiha Fuji in the bodyguard was also dispatched.

instead of yourself.

Responsible for monitoring and counting the use of this large sum of money.

Some people will not be given the opportunity to take the opportunity to embezzle.

Of course, overall strategy.

Still choose the mode of 'relief with work'.

Through a series of operations of 'designating projects, recruiting workers, building facilities, and issuing remuneration'.

Come to help build the village, add jobs, and subsidize the tribe.

Like the stupid way of stimulating the village economy by simply distributing money and killing labor enthusiasm.

Natsume naturally wouldn't use it.

In general.Judging by how lively the village has been these past few days, the effect should be good.

……

The weekly financial report that Natsume took over from Fuji handed over.

Browse it a little bit.

As a result, I didn't know if I didn't see it, and I was startled when I saw it.

The financial expenditure in just one week is as high as 350 million taels of silver! .seven

Far beyond Natsume's expectations, it's really terrifying!

But, take a closer look.

Every expenditure on the report is in an orderly manner and is not a false report.

You know, there are currently more than 400 people in the village.

Except for the old, young, women and children, more than 100 young and middle-aged people have all participated in the infrastructure construction.Even including those dozens of ninjas.

On average, one person works to support four people!

And their daily wages are distributed by the village, and each person is between 200-400 taels a day.

Take 300 taels for calculation.

If 130 people work for 7 days, 27 taels will be distributed.

Plus, build shops, roads, orphanages, hospitals, bathhouses, schools and more...

Stones, glass, equipment, etc. that need to be purchased.

And all kinds of pots and pans, firewood, rice, oil and salt... etc. necessary for people's livelihood.

Zero and zero add up.

It only cost 350 million taels a week, which is really not much!

This is still a barely saved expenditure by the elders in the group of clans who carefully calculated and calculated.

It can be counted at this speed.

The family's entire 14800 million financial reserves can only last for 42 weeks, not even ten months...

Moreover, as the village expands and becomes more complete in the future, the population will increase...

Spending will only expand further.

At that time, I am afraid that it will be difficult to support even half a year!

This is much shorter than what Natsume originally predicted...

It is even more proof that it is not easy to maintain and develop a village.

Force is only the first level of protection.

Without a sufficient economic level, it simply cannot be maintained!

This is why.

Even the mighty [Konoha Hidden Village] has to 'be humble' to [Fire Nation].Even if he chooses to inherit Hokage, he must seek the opinion of Daimyo...

After all, people hold your economic lifeline!

The ninjas in that village alone cannot support the entire village!

……

Looking at this long list of bills, Natsume is also one head and two big.

Now think about it, in those Naruto novels that I often read in my previous life.When the protagonist's head gets hot and his hands clap, he can build a hidden village out of thin air.

It's just tm's fart!

On my side, the right time, the right place, and the right people are all taken.

But just building a small hidden village, they are all so trembling, like walking on thin ice!

Sure enough, there is still the same saying, 'It is easy to conquer the world, but it is difficult to defend the world'!

In short, we can no longer just sit and eat like this.

Even if the treasury's finances can last for more than half a year, it is necessary to open up its own income channels as soon as possible.

Without enough economic income, it is impossible to build a strong village!

……

"okay, I get it!"

"Second Elder and the others are doing very well."

"Teng, tell them for me. Keep it up!"

"In addition, don't be too stingy with financial expenditures, even if it costs more, it doesn't matter."

"Everything is to build a good village as the first priority!"

"After all, from now on, this is our new home! How can we build our own home, so we're still digging and swishing."

"Understood! I will definitely convey it!"

Uchiha Teng also beamed with joy, and immediately agreed.

"Yes! Uncle Teng, just suggest that the elders make the bathhouse bigger."

"It would be better to have a mixed bath, that would be comfortable!"

Uchiha Yin, who was on the side, also took the opportunity to encourage.

"Bah! You brat, what are you talking about?"

"It's you who want to take a mixed bath, right?"

Teng gave the brat a dunk and scolded with a smile.

Then, he calmed down.

Finally, he asked Natsume:

"It's just that, young patriarch, it's not a solution to spend extravagantly all the time."

"These silver taels will always be consumed..."

"Are we next?"

Natsume: "Don't worry. In this regard, I will find a way."

Uchiha Silver: "Could it be, young patriarch, are you planning to attack that village again? Are you planning to rob their treasury?"

"Snapped--"

Silver took another dunk from Natsume.

"Nonsense! That's not looting, it's 'robbing the rich and giving to the poor'!"

Natsume corrected solemnly.

Hearing this, Uchiha Gin's eyes lit up, and he suddenly realized.

At the same time, it seems that I really want to try this kind of pleasure of 'robbing the rich and helping the poor'.

"But 'robbing the rich and helping the poor' is not a long-term solution! A village that has been robbed once will definitely strengthen its defenses."

"I'm afraid it won't be so easy to succeed next time!"

Natsume nodded in approval:

"Vine is right."

"Therefore, pure 'robbing from the rich and giving to the poor' is not sustainable."

"We must develop our own income channels and form a virtuous circle in order to achieve the goal of enriching and strengthening the village."

"But we are all rebellious now. Ordinary big countries will not allow us to accept missions and earn rewards. How can we make money?"

Uchiha Gin said with a sad face.

In fact, it is precisely because of this layer of reason.

After the ninjas in each village defected, they generally had a very difficult life...

Even an outstanding ninja like the 'kirk hidden ghost' is no longer cut.

He also had to rely on frequent missions to accumulate silver taels.

"Don't worry, I already have a goal."

"Young patriarch, what is the goal?"

"Of course [Wa no Country]..."

Natsume smiled gently, revealing those blood-thirsty 'fangs'.
