The Shimada Family's Ninja Journey

Chapter 246 Arrangement
After Hanzo finished speaking, the elders immediately fell into deep thought.

Seeing this, Hanzo was not in a hurry, he just drank his tea and gave everyone enough time to think.

After a while, the Fifth Elder spoke first: "...Patriarch, I understand what you mean. In the future, we will not only manage the Shimada clan, but also the entire Ninja Village. We should really take a long-term view."

The opinions of the five elders represent the opinions of most of the non-radicals among the elders.

Seeing this, the few remaining relatively radical elders knew that they could not change the overall situation, so they stopped entangled in this issue.

The elders all agreed with this statement, Hanzo then continued: "The next thing is the Ministry of Commerce..."

As he spoke, he hesitated for a moment, and after a while, he said slowly: "Everyone, have you ever thought about whether we should always rely on the aid of the Daming Mansion to balance our finances?"

When the elders heard the words, there was a trace of bewilderment in their eyes.

In their view, the definition of Ninja Village is the military power of a country.

As a military force, isn't it natural to rely on the financial support of the Daming Prefecture?

Seeing this, Hanzo couldn't help but sighed.

In his impression, in the original time and space, until decades later, most ninja villages in major countries also relied on the financial support of the Daming Mansion.

Regardless of the other four countries, Konoha's commercial activities are definitely prosperous enough.

Therefore, Hanzo has every reason to doubt Konoha in the original time and space. I am afraid that he is not paying much attention to the business activities in this village.

Of course, regardless of whether this was the case in the original time and space, since the Ninja Ninja World of Fire is now under his control, it is necessary to develop business activities.

In the eyes of ordinary people, the organization of Daming Mansion has been passed down for thousands of years or even longer, and their rule over the country has become a habit in the eyes of many people.

But Hanzo doesn't have this concept.

Therefore, in the future governing process, it is possible for the village to say that there is a conflict with the country.

At that time, he hopes that apart from force, Ninja Village will also have other reliance.

Financial independence is undoubtedly a good choice.

But these thoughts, the elders in front of them probably don't quite understand.

Therefore, Hanzo could only explain it to the elders as concisely as possible.

"Business and trade activities can bring considerable tax revenue, and the location of the Land of Fire is unique. If the business is done well, it will also be a great source of income." Hanzo said a little bored.

As soon as the words fell, Yi Teng, who was sitting in the corner, spoke.

"I agree with the patriarch on this point, everyone."

With that said, he also stood up.

The elders were taken aback when they saw this. You must know that although Yi Teng has always attended high-level meetings, in fact, he seldom expresses his opinions.

Even if they have any ideas, they usually only discuss with the patriarch individually after or before the meeting.

Today, Yi Teng suddenly behaved uncharacteristically, which obviously made many elders stunned.

There is one thing to say, according to the official statement, the position of "steward" is lower than the elders in the clan.

However, Yi Teng's age and qualifications are there, and now in the entire conference room, there are only a few people who are about his age, such as the Great Elder.

Especially some young elders, almost all Yi Teng watched them grow up.

Therefore, in fact, Yiteng still has a certain right to speak in this high-level meeting.

I only heard Yi Teng's words and said excitedly: "Everyone, you may not be clear, but I have been in charge of the family's finances for so many years. Every year, the family's income from trade has reached [-]% of the mission rewards in recent years!"

As soon as Yi Teng said this, except for the elders who knew about these things in private, the other elders were all shocked.

In the past, although they knew that the family ran a lot of shops and had connections with some merchants, these elders never took these matters to heart, but they didn't want the family's trading income to be [-]% of the mission rewards.

You know, the family resources occupied by the two are completely different.

Every day, a large number of ninjas in the family go out to do tasks to earn rewards.

Not to mention that members of the clan are often disabled and killed in battle.

As for trade, it takes up much less family resources.

"It's no wonder that those businessmen can give such high rewards... so it's so profitable to do business."

For a while, many elders secretly muttered in their hearts.

But to be honest, the Shimada clan's trading activities can have such benefits, and it is also closely related to the strength of the Shimada clan.

Concerned about the strength of the Shimada clan, many businessmen dare not think anything wrong when dealing with the clan.

In many cases, they will even take the initiative to give some discounts to make friends with the Shimada clan.

So, specifically, there is still a certain difference between Ninja and Ninja Village in this respect.

But these, Yoshiteng knows it well, Hanzo knows it well, but most of the elders sitting here don't know the twists and turns.

So, facing the naked banknotes, the elders were undoubtedly moved.

"In that case, I have no objections." After a while, the elders said to Hanzo.

Hanzo smiled when he heard the words: "Then I will arrange the specific person in charge now."

After that, he looked around for a week, his eyes swept over the faces of all the elders.

After pondering for a moment, Hanzo finally said: "...Fifth Elder, how about leaving the Ministry of Commerce to you?"

The fifth elder was taken aback when he heard the words, but he didn't hesitate too much, and simply said: "Don't worry, patriarch, leave it to me."

Hanzo immediately nodded, and added: "If you don't understand anything, you can ask Uncle Yiteng...Uncle Yiteng, please."

"Don't worry, patriarch." Yi Teng also smiled.

Seeing this, Hanzo felt relieved a lot.

Speaking of which, if it weren't for the fact that it was not good for ordinary people to take up the position of Ninja Village, Hanzo would have wanted to directly let Yi Teng take up the position of the responsible elder.

Fortunately, Fifth Elder and Hanzo are also very compatible. With him and Yi Teng's cooperation, Hanzo can rest assured.

The problem of the Ministry of Commerce and Trade is solved, and the next step is the Ministry of Education.

Hanzo's eyes turned back and forth between the First Elder and the Third Elder.

Seeing this, the rest of the elders couldn't help feeling a little disappointed.

On the contrary, the two parties seemed calm and abnormal, and they didn't seem to be enthusiastic about it.

"Then, then..."

Hanzo had just opened his mouth, and before he had time to say anything, a voice interrupted him.

"Brother, look... How about I come?"

Hanzo was taken aback when he heard the words, and then looked at the source of the voice—it was Genji.

"This is..."

Hanzo hesitated.

Speaking of which, although the elder in charge of the Ministry of Education has to serve as the principal of the ninja school, in fact, the elder is only controlling a general direction.

The real specific affairs must still be in charge of the people below.

If Genji wants to try it, that's fine.

It's just that Hanzo is a little worried that his brother is only 3 minutes hot.

If he turned around and put down the pick again, it would be a troublesome matter.

But at this moment, the Great Elder spoke up.

"Patriarch, why don't you let Genji try it." He looked at the latter with a smile in his eyes: "Young people, you have to practice and practice, and besides, don't you have the patriarch, you, as an older brother, to give you some pointers?" .”

Hanzo heard the words, and looked at Genji who was still insisting.

After a while, he still nodded and said: "Okay, then Genji, I will leave the Ministry of Education to you, don't let me down."

Genji was overjoyed immediately, and immediately said loudly: "Don't worry, big brother."
