Uchiha Kotogawa from Konoha

Konoha's power structure gradually became more detailed.

It seems that the right to watch Naruto has become smaller, but in fact, it is not the case. After all, a person's energy is limited, so what if he holds all the rights in his hands? , you have the right but you can’t use it.

Konoha itself has an advisory board mechanism to decentralize power, and Minato's new appointment of advisors is nothing more than another division of power.

When the cake painting competition was over, Kotokawa went back alone. She had no interest in Konoha's rights and the like.

It's better to go and see that boy Uchiha Ye more.

However, when she returned to her clan's land, she was still imprisoned.

An old acquaintance, Orochimaru.

He still has a pale face, a cold aura, and is dressed in a purple and white kimono.

"Kotokawa-san, it's really amazing. Minato's methods of governing are unexpectedly brilliant." Orochimaru said as if in admiration.

Qinchuan tilted his little head and smiled: "Snake-kun didn't come to me for those boring things, right?"

"No, those are not boring things. Just letting Konoha organize its own business to make money is a very good idea." Orochimaru said with a smile.

Qinchuan glanced at the villagers walking around and shook his head: "Standing in the middle of the road is not a good place to talk. Come to my house."

With that said, he left for the clan.

When the two of them were walking together, Qinchuan was not worried that Orochimaru would sneak up on her. With the Eternal Eye, she could perform virtualization at any time, so she really didn't worry about being attacked.

Even if you are really attacked by a sneak attack, you can still recover and heal.

The only thing in Konoha that could make Kotokawa fearful was Minato. It wouldn't be fun if he slapped a Flying Thunder God mark on her body. She would have to be prepared for sudden attacks at any time, and she wouldn't be able to sleep well.

In the small courtyard of Qinchuan, a small Izumi was throwing kunai hard. The target was hanging on the branch of a tree. When the wind blew, the target would sway. Hitting the kunai was much more difficult than a fixed target.

"Quan is working very hard. Come and take a rest and make a pot of tea."

Orochimaru and Qinchuan entered the yard silently, Qinchuan rubbed the little Loli's head out of habit and said.

Quan was suddenly touched on the head, and his little body trembled obviously, obviously he was frightened.

Quan turned her head with a bit of resentment in her eyes, but after noticing the outsider, she immediately straightened her expression and said respectfully: "Okay, Lord Qinchuan."

Quan trotted into the house and started boiling water for tea.

"You like her very much?" Orochimaru's voice floated out.

Kotokawa admitted without any hesitation: "She has great potential. There are not many girls in the Uchiha tribe who are as talented as her."

Orochimaru showed some interest, and the person that Kotokawa could like must be extraordinary.

In the living room, there was a low table, with Kotokawa and Orochimaru sitting at two ends.

"The things you gave me last time have yielded some results. I need more materials." Orochimaru was not polite. He took out a scroll and placed it on the low table, pushing it down in front of Qinchuan.

Qinchuan picked up the scroll, weighed it, and said with a chuckle: "Snake-kun is indeed an expert in this field. I can add more things, and I can also give you something different."

Quan carefully brought the teapot over and saw the two of them talking. She tried her best to be transparent and quietly poured tea into their cups. After finishing, she put the teapot on the table and exited the living room.

Orochimaru's expression moved slightly and he smiled: "What did Kotokawa-san ask me to do this time?"

"Snake-kun is really happy, so let me tell you straight. I hope Snake-kun can take some time to improve crops and livestock to make them more productive. As you can probably guess, the population of Konoha will be increasing in the future. If there are too many, the current food will not be enough."

Qinchuan said calmly.

Orochimaru frowned slightly. In his heart, he didn't want to waste time on such meaningless things. He had more important research in progress.

Especially the mulberry leaves obtained from Qinchuan allowed him to touch the threshold of natural energy. He wanted to get into it all day long, so there was no time to waste on improving crops.

"Konoha is different now. It is not appropriate for Snake-kun to rely on external capital injection for his research, and there are many constraints. It is better to take this opportunity to improve some high-yielding crops and sell them to Konoha to obtain funds. Snake-kun must not like it either. The direction of research is influenced by others, isn’t it?”

Kotokawa talked about Orochimaru's pain point. He has always relied on funding from Konoha and Danzo for research, and with other people's money, he must listen to their opinions to modify the research direction, otherwise there will be no investors next time. .

"What you said is not the same as before, it's just that one is passive and the other is active." Orochimaru said.

Qinchuan shook his head and smiled: "It's different, it's very different. You accept other people's money, and you end up short. But you trade goods with them, which is equivalent to an equal supply relationship. With Snake Lord's ability, you can come up with more refreshing things." Come out, and the funds will only be more abundant than just waiting for Konoha to allocate funds."

"With Uncle Snake's talent, if you recruit some people and let them help run the chamber of commerce, the money will be nothing more than a string of numbers, right?"

Orochimaru pondered for a moment: "What Kotokawa-san said makes sense, let's give it a try."

As he spoke, he changed his subject. A pair of snake eyes stared straight at Qinchuan, and said with a bit of greed: "Qinchuan-san is very special. He has also awakened the legendary Mangekyo Sharingan. I wonder if you can let me study it." Fan."

The smile on Qinchuan's face faded a bit, and he refused: "I don't want to be studied. Lord Snake will be disappointed."

Orochimaru had expected this and was not disappointed. He smiled and said, "If you change your mind, Kotokawa-san, you can come to me."

"Thank you for being sensitive!"

Qinchuan cursed in her heart, she had no interest in being a guinea pig.

Besides, she is a beautiful girl now. Wouldn't it be very bad to be treated as a test subject?

After talking about the matter, Kotokawa chased the people away. Orochimaru used his long tongue to wash his face with a half-smile, but he didn't stay shamelessly.

But when he walked out of the living room and passed through the corridor, Orochimaru seemed to sense something and glanced at the room at the end of the corridor.

His eyes looked a little playful.

"It feels like a sealing barrier. It's obviously weird to place a sealing barrier in a place like this."

Thinking in his mind, Orochimaru did not reveal it, but was sent out of the Uchiha clan by Qinchuan.

"Where is Sayou!" Qinchuan left one sentence, turned around and went back.

Orochimaru glanced at the high wall of the Uchiha clan, smiled and murmured: "A very strong Uchiha, a very interesting little girl, I really want to put her on the test bench and study her carefully."

As he spoke, the figure gradually blended into the crowd on the street and slowly disappeared.

Konoha has a lot of people coming and going, all dressed in different colors, and the scenery is completely different from the past.
