??

I accidentally got silly, cough.

Konoha calmed down his expression, it doesn't matter if he is stupid, the key is not to let others see it.

"What's going on?" Konoha asked the first Senju young man in the queue, pointing to the "prisoners" whose hands and feet were bound and unable to move.

If there was anything in this fief that Konoha needed to worry about the least, it would probably be security.

Regardless of the people who usually come and go in the streets and alleys, it is very likely that there are a few ninjas among them. Although their number is small, there is no doubt that they are Konoha's natural security force.

The quantity of ninja that Konoha brought from its own village was not large, but the quality was very capable.Not to mention anything else, just taking out a Senju Hashirama is enough to control this territory.

So for a long time, she really ignored the issue of public security.Anyway, ninjas are very obedient and will not cause trouble easily. Ordinary people know that there are ninjas watching, so most of the time they abide by the law and do not disturb public order.

The ones who will make trouble at this time are the immigrants who have just arrived and are not familiar with the local conditions, especially those who are used to being local bullies (?) in their previous territories. Even if they move to a new place to make a living, they They still habitually live according to their previous lifestyle, forming cliques, bullying, blackmailing... These are common behaviors in their eyes, but they greatly endanger social stability.

So these gangsters who were looking for trouble everywhere were killed by the Thousand Hands who were passing by and were about to have a dinner and drink. It was very easy to judge whether they were gangsters. Every resident in the territory had a score card, which was equivalent to an ID card. You don't have the same thing?OK, please come with us.

The villains and gangsters who were captured at once were also confused. They tried to struggle and resist on the way, but they were pushed to the ground by the Thousand Hands youth and rubbed to teach them how to behave. In the end, the Thousand Hands youths "mercifully" revealed their identity. identity.After learning that the opponent was a ninja, the gangsters immediately became discouraged and did not dare to make any small moves.

They roar inside.

Why are there so many ninjas gathering in this nook and cranny?Aren’t ninjas supposed to stay in ninja villages? Why are they here!It's going to kill me. The iron plate I kicked this time can make a person lame by kicking his toes!

Most of them were from small places and were from farmers. The best they could do was show off their power to the weaklings who were also farmers, and how could they dare to offend the legendary ninjas.

...Speaking of which, this is the first time they have seen a real ninja. In the past, there were either rumors or samurai pretending to be samurai. It seems that ninjas look like ordinary people. They don't have green faces and fangs, and they don't have three heads and six arms...

They were escorted obediently to the person in charge of this territory. What shocked them was that the big shot who could command many ninjas was actually just a little girl in her teens?

The respectful attitude of the ninjas behind them told them that yes, reality is so magical.

A young man with a thousand hands gave a complete account of the troublemaking process of these gangsters, and said: "Miss, how should we deal with these people who are disrupting order?"

The understatement made the hair of all the black people stand on end.

Their minds once again uncontrollably recalled the rumors about ninjas they had heard before, about peeling off your skin and flesh while you were sleeping, throwing it into a crucible for cooking, and using the most terrifying method to kill you before you died. Torture tools to torture you...

They were trembling and sweating profusely. Some of them were frightened to death by their own imagination. Without saying a word, they sat down and knocked their foreheads on the floor with a crisp sound: "Sir! We know we were wrong and we are willing to change our ways. Don't put it down." Let’s throw it out into the wild to feed the dogs!”

Konoha paused for a moment: "...Who said that you are going to be thrown to the dogs?"

Her eyes are weird. Is this who she is in the eyes of the people?

Hey, that Senju over there, turn your head back, I can already see you holding back a smile!

"You have committed a crime, and of course you will be punished. As long as you do hard labor, there may be a way out." Konoha said a few words of earnest advice and tapped his fingers on the table twice, "But of course, you still have to ask questions."

"I have overlooked some things." She said, "About how many immigrants like you were there during this period? When did it start? Also, why did you all choose to live here?"

"Yes, I don't know how many there are..." Another dark-skinned prisoner said hesitantly, "Since I started rushing here, there have been several waves of people, and I don't know who I asked. , they all said they saw other people rushing in this direction, so we followed suit..."

"When should I start... Anyway, it was already winter when I moved away. Most of us moved away during the winter when there was a shortage of food. In order to escape famine, so many people move away from their previous homes every year." He whispered, "My wife, children, and parents are all starving to death. If I hadn't been so hungry that I couldn't survive, I wouldn't be willing to leave my home..."

"Then why are you so sure there will be food here?"

"This, I know this!" a middle-aged man on the left said hurriedly, "It seems that some people followed the guidance of some doctrine, saying that the gods told them that they would have a chance to survive when they got here, and then this news The spread spread more and more, and more and more people believed that as long as they came here, they would not be hungry, so everyone came."

……doctrine?

A familiar feeling of déjà vu was vaguely felt in Konoha's heart, and she asked tentatively: "Which sect is it?"

"It's the 'Sheyijiao'." The middle-aged man looked blank. This term may be too convoluted for him.

Konoha: "..."

Konoha held his forehead.

In the end, after going round and round, is it still her own fault in the end?

Every cause must have its effect, and she has realized the meaning of this sentence firsthand.

But Tong Mo is really awesome... She just asked him to thoroughly study those books. Has he read them all?

She asked weakly: "How widespread has this sect spread?"

You're such a grinder, you just went and started something without telling her!

At least say something!

But this question touches on the blind spots of these people's knowledge. To put it bluntly, they are all homeless people who drifted here. How can they know so much.

Konoha had no choice but to wave his hand and let the people below investigate.

Tong Mo's talent in preaching is incredible... Yes, after all, he has been doing one thing for 400 years, and even the dullest person can become a master.

She hasn't gotten specific data yet, but just by looking at the continuous number of new immigrants, she can see how wide the spread is, but she doesn't know what the class nature is. If it can penetrate to the upper class... cough.

Let’s think about this later. The question before us now is what to do with these gangsters.

It's not difficult to say.

Konoha first gave them replacement score cards, but there were special ink marks on the cards to show that the owner was still a reform-through-labor prisoner. When the sentence is over, someone will erase it, and these people will become normal local residents. .

Taking this opportunity, Konoha conducted a thorough check on the number of extra immigrants. After filling the gaps in the population records, she asked her people to improve the border guards and supervision. People can't always sneak in. You can immigrate if you want. , but she must be given due process.

Anyway, the new wave of industry is still developing, and job vacancies have not yet been filled. Most of the local people have fields to farm and are unwilling to work. At this time, it would be a good thing to catch these immigrants to work.

It can also help them get familiar with the living style here as soon as possible and change their previous bad habits.

.........

"We welcome immigrants who are willing to abide by the laws and live a good life, but if they come here deliberately to cause trouble and pollute the air here, of course we will not be merciful."

Senju Isui smiled gently. The queue in front of her formed a long queue. They were all homeless immigrants picked out from every corner and forced to line up to receive their points cards one by one.

Qianju Yishui was still explaining the points system to them in detail. Some people were listening carefully, and there were also some people who were staring at Yishui's gorgeous face, unconsciously in a trance.

There is a reason why Thousand Hands and One Water became the national goddess.

When she noticed that some people were distracted, she was good-natured and ignored it. After reminding them that these things were closely related to their future lives and that they could have enough food and clothing by redeeming points, this extremely pragmatic statement immediately became clear. Took their attention back.

Until the end of the show, they seemed to be still dreaming.

This...is gone?He was discovered by the adults above, but he didn't go to jail or be punished. As long as he went to work on time and completed his tasks every day as this girl said, he would get food, shelter, and his own points?

There is such a good thing? ?

People looked at each other blankly. Some people couldn't wait to leave to see the new house after Senju Isui finished explaining. The rest of the people were hesitant and at a loss. The development of the matter was a surprise to them. The words are too beautiful, so beautiful that I can't believe it is true.

"What are you still doing?" Senju Issui, who was about to leave, saw this and said in a funny tone: "Don't forget that you only have one day free today, and you will be busy with work from tomorrow on."

"Um, Miss Yishui..." someone murmured and asked, "Do you know what kind of person the adult above is?"

This is a bit presumptuous.But looking at the dazed expressions on all these people's faces, it seems likely that they don't have this awareness.

Yishui said: "Why do you ask this?"

"No, I just... I've never seen anything like this." The man held the score card with tears in his eyes, "Give us outsiders food, a place to live, clothes to wear... I've never I have seen such adults, so I just want to know why you do this..."

Qianshou Yishui was silent for a long time, then she smiled, like floating clouds unrolling, and the sun was shining through, leaving a warm feeling of comfort on the person's body.

"That lord is unprecedented. You don't need to care too much. Just know that that lord is the only good person in the world who will think about you."

That was all she answered.

Seeing people leaving one after another, Qian Shu Yi Shui shook his head in his heart.

How could they understand?

Even if all the words of praise in the world are piled up, they are far beyond the reach of the pillar of their belief...their eldest lady.
