Konoha is also very enthusiastic today

More than half a month passed in a blink of an eye.

Konoha doesn't have much sense of reality, probably because it is devoted entirely to the affairs of the industrial economy.

Uchiha Izuna's efficiency is ridiculously high. If he didn't know that as a ninja, he has excellent physical fitness, just this kind of work mode that overextends his sleep time would make Konoha tremble with fear, fearing that his uncle would tire him out one day. In the ICU.

Businessmen flocked to the city, and with these people taking the lead, various factories sprung up one after another.

The potential for development is too great. After examining various factors in the fiefdom, those businessmen stayed here and did not want to leave.

Their excellent business acumen made countless gold flash before their eyes when they first saw the plan proposed by Konoha.

These are areas that have never been tried before, but they are of great value.

Of course, there will be risks, but doing business means playing games with the goddess of fate anytime and anywhere. They have been walking on the tightrope for ten or not 20 years. This risk is not worth mentioning to them.

Their cooperation with Konoha can be said to be very pleasant.

Konoha can finally be a hands-off boss for once, and no longer has to worry about the remaining properties except for the few public ones.

After finishing the things at hand, Konoha came back to his senses and realized that the winter snow had almost melted without even realizing it.

After such a long time, the reply that Konoha had been eagerly awaiting from the Fire Nation daimyo finally came.

Xiaomei is really, really strong.

I don’t know what means she used to get the daimyo who had previously insisted that he was not allowed to practice Buddhism to relent, and promised to fund the construction of a direct transportation road from the Kingdom of Thunder to the Kingdom of Fire to improve trade between the two countries.

It's good that we need to pass through other countries' territories on the way, but their opinions won't have much influence.

Even the rulers who were seriously ill and suspected that this was a conspiracy of the Fire and Thunder Kingdoms did not dare to openly express their opposition to these two countries.

Yes, in the ninja world, there is still national inequality caused by obvious power gaps. Except for the five major countries, the countries that are slightly weaker cannot even be said to have complete sovereignty.

As long as the Fire Nation daimyo agrees, it's basically a done deal.

The planned route they gave at the beginning was to start from the fiefdom. This land had already been cut out. The Daimyo of the Kingdom of Thunder had no position to criticize and could only watch the construction work in full swing.

The Ninja Continent is very small. Compared with the Earth in another world, the scale of the world map here is much larger than that of the Earth.

Therefore, for a straight road that spans several countries, in terms of distance alone, as long as a sufficient number of ninjas join in, the construction period can be repeatedly reduced, and it can even be completed within a quarter.

...Of course, this only takes into account the distance factor.

You also need to examine the topography of the areas you pass. If you encounter a place like a swamp or a dense forest, even though it is a straight route, you will definitely have to take a detour.

In order to ensure the stability of the project, Konoha once again invited the omnipotent Senju Tobirama, who could carry the technological tree of the ninja world, to follow him all the way.

Konoha also told him to record as much data as possible, not only the planned route, but also the surrounding terrain, and record it in as much detail as possible.

Well, this is to prepare for future railway construction.

When taking Uncle Tobirama away, Konoha casually mentioned, "How is the improvement of the Flying Thunder God?"

At first, as Party A (?), I just wanted to speed up the progress. Konoha actually didn't have much hope. How long has passed?

However, what scared her was that Tobirama said that he had some clues.

The only thing to blame is that the female vampire is too powerful in the art of ghosts and cooperates very well with his research. As a result, when he comes into contact with the new system, he has constant bursts of inspiration and it goes incredibly smoothly.

In this way, in up to seven months, he can greatly improve the Flying Thunder God, and finally integrate it into the transportation system as Konoha wishes.

Konoha breathed a sigh of relief, his eyes sparkling.

...It seems that this year, we can achieve even greater results than last year.

.........

Just in time for the start of spring, construction of the straight road finally started. While the traffic progress that had been stagnant for a long time finally moved forward, people on the land also started sowing the land for the new year.

The cooperative has now been gradually improved. People share tools that each other lacks, which greatly improves the efficiency of farming and animal husbandry, and strengthens the connection between them. The atmosphere is visibly more harmonious.

Konoha stood on the high-rise building with his hands on the railing, looking at the people working hard on the farmland, and fell into deep thought.

Right now, everything seems to be moving in the right direction.

Construction of the traffic straightway has begun. When it is put into use, it is obvious what kind of business frenzy it can stimulate. Her small coffers will be full without any problem.

With improvements in agriculture, there will only be more to be harvested this year, but...

Thinking of the disaster data sheet he kept under the drawer, Konoha felt uneasy for a while.

Natural disasters are really no joke. Just looking at the frequency of occurrences, a new round of disasters is approaching.

It is a real transit place, where not a single blade of grass grows. Just one round trip can make more than a year's hard work go to waste.

The blow would be huge, and she would still have to appease the people.

The locust plague is caused by various factors. It is useless for Konoha to ask its people to step up prevention. The base number is too small and it cannot shake the possibility of a locust plague at all.

Apart from the currently known methods...let her think about it.

This is not the earth, this is the ninja world. I wonder if there is any other way?

Konoha walked down the stairs in thought, and then found a large mushroom species waving at her in the hall on the first floor.

Konoha: "..."

She walked over wordlessly.

"Father, what are you doing here?"

Senju Hashirama said to her with a smile: "Little Konoha likes to see people working, and I like it too." Especially those seeds that were cultivated, and his contribution was included, and he felt so satisfied in his heart. Can't stop it.

"I heard what Izuna said." Senju Hashirama looked at her gently, "You seem to be worried about the locust plague?"

"Yes..." Konoha didn't ask how he heard about it from Izuna even though they were so far away. She lay on the table sleepily, "It is estimated that in the past two years, good luck may only be a matter of near misses. , bad luck, it may break out this year, we can’t take any chances in this regard.”

"That's right." Senju Hashirama nodded with deep understanding.

Eh.Konoha paused, then slowly moved his gaze upward.

Speaking of which, the mushroom-loving father in front of me seems to have the title of "God of the Ninja World". He enjoys this honor in the Ninja World, so he must have a better understanding of the Ninja World, right?

Konoha asked tentatively: "Father Hashirama, do you know what ninjutsu can be used to prevent locust plagues?"

Senju Hashirama almost thought there was something wrong with his ears.

After confirming again and again that he had heard correctly, he looked at Konoha with a strange look that was a bit natural.

It's his daughter's inner smell... When their generation habitually separated ninjas from ordinary people, Konoha would often connect the two in a way that none of them expected.

The key is that it really has a great effect.

When Konoha asked him this question, Hashirama was not only curious about it, but also subconsciously searching for ninjutsu that met Konoha's conditions.

Although... the ninjutsu he is familiar with are all destructive, powerful and dangerous, so they can't be related to something as full of farming as "preventing and controlling locust plagues", right?

There are three major categories of ninjutsu genjutsu. Firstly, taijutsu genjutsu is excluded, and the remaining ninjutsu...emmmm.

After eliminating the options one by one, the only one that qualified as "non-offensive" was the Uzumaki family's sealing technique... Wait, sealing technique?

Senju Hashirama's eyes lit up, and he immediately expressed his thoughts to Konoha: "Little Konoha, what do you think of our village's barrier?"

"Huh?" This topic jumped too fast. Fortunately, Konoha could keep up with Hashirama's brain circuit. She answered in a decent manner, "So far, the effect is very good, preventing the invasion of external enemies, that is You need to be careful about the fact that it is not difficult to decipher..."

Hashirama interrupted her: "Well, little Konoha, what do you think about using barrier techniques to block locusts?"

"..." Konoha was stuck.

She suppressed the "f*ck" that was about to blurt out and looked at her old father as if he were seeing a ghost. She stammered and asked: "This barrier thing... can still be used like this?"

"There is indeed no precedent for this before." Senju Hashirama touched his chin, "But according to theory, it is feasible. As long as the input secret command is changed and the structured spell is changed from targeting humans to targeting locusts..."

The more I think about it, the more feasible it becomes!

Konoha leaned back in admiration: "Father, you are indeed a genius... I will ask Mito's mother right now!"

The barrier of the main village of Konoha was organized and built by Uzumaki Mito, so when encountering problems in this area, it is normal for Konoha's first reaction to find Mito.

Hashirama waved his hand at Konoha's retreating back.

His daughter is becoming more and more resolute.

Really like Madara.

.........

Uzumaki Mito squirted out the tea.

"Enchantment... to prevent locusts?!" Her tone was shocked and her hands were trembling.

Konoha was spinning in circles in front of her excitedly.

"Yes, because it seems feasible according to theory, so let's ask Mito's mother if you have any ideas."

Mito: "..."

You two, father and daughter, are truly geniuses from the same line.

Why hadn't she thought of such a use?

Mito looked complicated.

No, it should be said that even if they think of it, most people probably won't try to implement it.

After all, ninjas are a group of people who are accustomed to being stuck in their ways and subconsciously hate change and the unknown.

"So Mito mom, do you think it's feasible?"

Konoha held her head and acted cute in all directions towards the red-haired woman.

Hashirama's father's words were very convincing, but when it came to seals and barriers, he still had to specialize in the arts, so he had to ask Mito's mother for advice.

After Uzumaki Mito was silent for a while, he nodded slowly in the little girl's expectant eyes.

She said: "...Then let me try."
