The leader of this branch, Yokota, has always acted as a think tank in the Uzumaki clan, helping the clan leader to handle government affairs, and also has extraordinary influence on various major decisions in the country of Uzumaki.

His ancestors relied on the convenience of their positions and their own special status to continuously marry into the clan leader's line and strengthen their own lineage. When it was passed down to Yokota's generation, it reached its peak, and its strength was almost equal to that of the clan leader's lineage. In addition, With the support of other branches, it is not impossible for the Yokota line to gradually replace the status of the patriarch line.

But now, due to the intervention of a relative of the Senju Clan, his plan is bound to be hindered. Today, Dazheng took the opportunity to remove him from all positions. Although it did not damage the entire branch, the original good situation has been destroyed, and this Everything started because of the rope tree, so Yokota hated him deeply.

But now things seem to have taken a turn for the better. It seems that the young patriarch and his direct blood relatives are not completely of the same mind?

Yokota had some vague guesses as to the main reason why Nezuki asked him to cooperate. It was simply that Konoha was a little wary of the Uzumaki clan's strength, so it wanted to support its own lineage and the clan leader's lineage to balance each other, thereby weakening and dividing the entire Uzumaki clan. Purpose, this balancing act is a common trick used by rulers.

However, after the previous confrontation, he was a little confused about the kid's tricks. What if he misunderstood that the other party was not a mature politician as he thought, but a young man who came to slap him in the face because of the previous conflict? What? So for the sake of his own face, Yokota must ask clearly about the situation.

The servant didn't expect Yokota to ask such a question, and said truthfully with a strange look on his face: "That young man spoke very well, with a half-smile but not a smile, and his attitude was not very arrogant."

Yokota nodded with satisfaction when he heard this: "In that case, let him come in! In addition, ask someone to clean up the hall quickly."

"Yes!" Although the visitor didn't know why the master suddenly changed his attitude, he didn't dare to say anything and immediately accepted the order and left.

A few minutes later, Rooshu was led by his servants to the entrance of the hall. He smelled the smell in the room and glanced at the water stains on the ground that had not yet dried, and roughly guessed what had happened before. He said with a smile on his face: "Haha... Yokota is so excited. The aroma of tea filling the room is really refreshing! I wonder what kind of good tea you brewed that makes it so fragrant?"

A trace of embarrassment flashed across Yokota's face when he heard this, but he immediately returned to normal. He pretended not to hear the deeper meaning of Naoki's words, and said nonchalantly: "Now I have resigned from all duties and was ordered by the patriarch to stay at home and reflect on my past. The patriarch of Naoki is here. What big things can you discuss with me, an idle guy?"

Hearing this, Naoki shook his head and said with a smile: "Elder Yokota is too modest. Who doesn't know that your lineage has been in charge of the internal affairs of the Whirlpool Country for generations, controls the financial power of the entire country, and is full of talents. Its strength is not inferior to that of the clan leader. Even if you lose the title of Taizheng Minister of the Country of Factory Whirlpool, you can still influence the situation of the Whirlpool clan, right?"

Hearing what Naoshu said, Yokota had a proud smile on his face, "Please tell me clearly what you are doing here, leader of the Noble Tree clan." Judging from his performance, he acquiesced to Naoshu's previous compliment.

"I'm coming here this time.

I want to discuss some matters regarding the cooperation between the Senju Clan and the Uzumaki Clan with Elder Yokota.When it comes to the future of the two clans, it is better to be more cautious. Elder Yokota is planning to talk like this, and is he not going to invite me in?" Naoki reminded with a smile on his face.

"Then please invite the leader of the Naoki clan to come in and discuss it in detail." Yokota saw that Naoki was here to seek cooperation as he expected, and his attitude immediately softened a lot in the face of interests. After inviting Naoki in, he spoke to the man outside the door. The man ordered: "You all go down! I have important matters to discuss with distinguished guests. You are not qualified to listen. Stay away and stay away. Don't let anyone disturb me!"

"Yes!" The servant closed the door and retreated.

Only Naoki and Yokota were left in the empty hall. Naoki sat down opposite Yokota unceremoniously, picked up the teacup on the coffee table, poured himself a cup of tea, and drank it all in one gulp. He had a look on his face. He said intoxicatedly: "Good tea, good tea! Not only is the tea good, but the tea set is also very exquisite. It's just that the tea cup seems to be incomplete? Why are the four gentlemen of plum, orchid, bamboo and chrysanthemum missing only the chrysanthemum?"

Seeing Naoki casually playing with the tea cup in his hand and talking about unrelated topics, Yokota said impatiently: "Just now, a servant accidentally broke a teacup, and the tea set has not been replaced yet. The leader of the Naoki tribe does not want to discuss it. Do you want to cooperate? Now that we are the only two here, what can we say?"

Naoki put down the cup in his hand with a look of reluctance, "What a pity for such a unique tea set! This time, I invited Elder Yokota to inject capital into our Konoha Consortium to become a shareholder of the consortium and cooperate together in cross-border trade. Generally speaking, The shareholders of our Konoha Foundation are all clan heads, but because of the special situation of the Uzumaki clan, I think Elder Yokota is the most suitable candidate. I sincerely invite you, what do you think of Elder Yokota?"

Naoki talked nonsense seriously, with the purpose of making Yokota relax his guard.

As expected, Yokota was attracted by Nezuki's words. Of course he knew very well about the Konoha Consortium, a consortium that almost monopolized the resource trade of the Fire Nation. If he could become a member of the board of directors, he would not only gain huge benefits, but also benefit the clan leader. The prestige of the lineage will also have an impact, so after Shengshu finished speaking, he was already excited and wanted to agree immediately.

However, in order to obtain more benefits, he could not act too eagerly. He still suppressed the excitement in his heart and said with a reserved look: "Of course I will not object to becoming a shareholder of the Konoha Consortium, but the specific price of this share is How much? How many shares can the Konoha Foundation transfer?"

Even if he didn't need to sense the secret skill, Nao Shu already knew Yokota's current state of mind through the prompts of the wish system. Knowing that the other party had taken the bait, Nao Shu continued to talk: "It's good that Elder Yokota is willing to join, but we will talk about the shares later. We can talk about it in detail. I have a question in my mind before I ask Elder Yokota to answer it!"

Yokota thought Naoki was deliberately adjusting his appetite and wanted to test his perversion so that he could determine the price and take the initiative in the subsequent negotiations.Therefore, he could not reveal his inner urgency and pretended not to care and said: "Chief Shengshu, do you have any questions? Just ask."

"According to my observation, Your Excellency has been opposed to the Uzumaki clan joining Konoha before, and has a soft spot for the country of Rain. I wonder why?" Nasuki asked, staring closely into Yokota's eyes.
