Ryuzaki Santo turned his head and exchanged glances with several other top chambers of commerce.

The others looked at him with trusting eyes.

Ryuzaki Santo's expression changed, and then he gritted his teeth: "Please let Lord Hokage decide for us!"

Qian Yao was speechless. This is really a clever guy.

"How much did you each spend? Do you have an account?"

Ryuzaki Santo had already prepared and took out an account sheet, which showed what properties they purchased and how much they spent.

Qian Yao picked up the account and flipped through it quickly. Under the dynamic capture vision of the Sharingan, he could see it clearly no matter how fast.

He quickly read through the contents, and the most important thing was to see how much the amount was.

Among the forty-seven chambers of commerce, the most was Ryuzaki Santo's Hirata Chamber of Commerce, which had a total of 7 billion.

The things purchased included, but were not limited to, the ownership of the shops and houses on the three streets of Kushina.

The original house property of the Sarutobi clan.

Qian Yao thought for a while and decided that the Daimyo was still useful now. Since he was obedient, he would deal with him later.

For now, the money had nothing to do with him.

"This account was signed between you and Sarutobi Hiruzen, and it has nothing to do with the current Konoha Village,"

Qian Yao defined the matter in his first sentence.

All the Chamber of Commerce representatives were pale.

"But..."

Qian Yao changed the subject: "But I just found someone to ask Sarutobi Hiruzen for the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki."

"You can also ask for your account together, but I don't know whether the other party will give it or not."

Ryuzaki Santo stood there for a long time. He actually had a clear understanding of the power of the ninja world.

After all, he had to travel to each ninja village to do business.

The situation in Konoha Village is not good now, and fighting may break out at any time. Not many people are capable of asking Sarutobi Hiruzen for money.

"Godaime Hokage, is it possible to get our money back?"

Ryuzaki Santo had no choice but to ask humbly.

Qianyao shook his head regretfully: "Sarutobi Hiruzen's bottom line is so low that you will never be able to imagine it."

"It is naturally not easy to dig meat out of him. I can only say, give me the account, and I will try my best to help you try."

"I can't guarantee how much I can get back."

Ryuzaki Santo turned his head and glanced at the other Chamber of Commerce representatives. They all closed their eyes in pain and nodded silently.

What else can you do? Do you dare to ask Uchiha for money?

Even if we each take what we need, you have to say thank you no matter how much money is given to you in the end.

Otherwise, there will be no money.

Ryuzaki Santo said with a bleak look: "Then I'll trouble you, Lord Hokage."

Qian Yao smiled: "When the others arrive, leave all the transaction receipts and bills."

"We will notify you when we have news."

"Of course, if such a dishonest person like Sarutobi Hiruzen arrives at the daimyo's mansion, the daimyo's situation will not be very good."

Qian Yao left this sentence, and Ryuzaki Santo immediately understood:

"Hokage, we know what to do."

...

Sarutobi Hiruzen's team.

After being attacked two days ago, the team was not organized until today.

In Sarutobi Hiruzen's tent, the quarrel between Jiraiya and Sarutobi Hiruzen was also heard.

"Old man, you didn't say you would take the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki away!"

Jiraiya still has feelings for Konoha Village, and he disagrees with Sarutobi Hiruzen's practice of stealing the Nine-Tails' human helper.

Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and scolded:

"Don't I know that I did this just to protect myself."

"With the ruthlessness of the Uchiha, will he let us go easily?"

Jiraiya's face changed:

"Didn't the Uchiha come? Now, whether it is Kumogakure, Iwagakure, or Sand Village, they are all ready to move."

"If Konoha doesn't have the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki, how can it resist the attack of the three ninja villages?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen knew that people like Jiraiya were very dull and stubborn, so of course he said what he said.

"I quit Konoha to avoid direct conflict with Uchiha."

"If the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki is in Uchiha, we can't protect ourselves. For Uchiha, it will become a weapon for them to start a war."

"Now we have the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki. If they attack Konoha, we can support Konoha at any time."

"This can also eliminate the contradiction between me and Uchiha."

Seeing Jiraiya's expression eased a little, Sarutobi Hiruzen also sighed in a fake way:

"I have selfish motives, and I also need to find a way out for my people!"

"I do all this because I don't want my people to die under the butcher knife of Uchiha."

Jiraiya couldn't help sighing when he saw Sarutobi Hiruzen like this..

He was silent for a while, then said: "If the people from Kumogakure come, should we go to support Konoha?"

Sarutobi Hiruzen said firmly:

"Of course, if Konoha Village is destroyed, we will not be spared even in the Daimyo Prefecture."

"But we must first send all these civilians to the Daimyo Prefecture to prevent Uchiha from attacking them."

Sarutobi Hiruzen's speculation is correct. If another Uchiha came to power, he would definitely think about how to quickly wipe out the Sarutobi clan.

But Qianyao is different. First of all, he is not a pure Uchiha thought.

After being influenced by his original body, he is more careful about his feathers and pays attention to a legitimate reason.

Even if his entire clan is to be killed, Uchiha will definitely not be the executioner.

Instead, he will use other ways or let others do it.

In the case of Uchiha having a large number of Mangekyō, Sarutobi Hiruzen is not going to use the Nine-Tails to help and confront Uchiha head-on.

Instead, he wanted to negotiate with Konoha by claiming that he could control the Nine-Tails Jinchuriki.

As a nuclear weapon in the ninja world, the difference between Jinchuriki and the Mangekyō Sharingan is that the tailed beasts have almost unlimited chakra.

The role played in the war is much more useful than the Mangekyō Sharingan of Uchiha.

Sarutobi Hiruzen was originally prepared to resist the first round of Uchiha's attack and complete the Gyuto Tenno plan.

Recall Sarutobi Ishifune, himself and Jiraiya, to fight against the Uchiha people.

And he had already sent out the situation of Konoha Village, and Kumogakure would definitely not miss this opportunity.

When the Uchiha was too busy to take care of themselves, he would decide whether to sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight or to copy the retreat of other ninja villages at the right time.

Although there were some deviations in the plan, Uchiha did not come to chase them, but replaced them with Okuruko and Sunagakure.

However, the large number of deaths of civilians still allowed him to complete the sacrifice plan of Gyuto Tenno.

Sarutobi Hiruzen had the card of Sarutobi Ishifune before, and now he has added another card, Nue after the success of the Gyuto Tenno plan.

Their team was attacked, and there were losses, but the appearance of Nue did not make the Third Hokage suffer too much.

After all, a large number of deaths were civilians, even if they were his own people, it was not important.

Jiraiya was a very lazy person, lazy in behavior and thinking.

After knowing the toad fable, he did not think about other things, and slowly looked for the child of prophecy.

Now that he had the "good excuse" of the Third Hokage, Jiraiya did not consider other ways, and just followed Sarutobi Hiruzen's thinking.

So he was fooled by Sarutobi Hiruzen in just two sentences.
