Konoha: The young son-in-law of the Hyuga family

After hearing that Ryosuke is a member of the Hyuga clan, Tokugawa Momo not only changed his tone and posture, but also his mood.

"Stop standing, sit down."

But Tokugawa Momo is in a bad mood, but his superficial skills are much better than Nagano Heira.

While gesturing for Ryosuke and the others to sit down, he looked at Nagano Ping next to him with a cold face, "Mr. Ryosuke ran all the way to the capital city, and you let them stand like this?"

"Hurry up and prepare tea and snacks, and by the way, ask someone to come over and play music."

"There's no need for music, I'm still young."

After taking his seat with a chuckle, Ryosuke waved his hand, "I'm still looking forward to desserts and tea, after all, they are made by famous chefs."

Tokugawa Momomo did not force the arrangement, and after signaling Nagano Ping to go quickly, he suggested again: "Young Master Ryosuke, let's stay at the Daming Mansion tonight. I will hold a banquet tonight and let the surrounding nobles come to see him. Hinata The demeanor of the clan."

Ryosuke did not refuse, and nodded, "His Highness Tokugawa is willing to introduce more people to me, then I will be respectful rather than obedient."

"Very good, very good, it just so happened that during this period of time, when the heads of various villages and towns came to report on their work, Mr. Ryosuke also happened to meet." Tokugawa Maopi nodded with a smile, very pleased Satisfied look.

Then, he asked about Hinata Hidetsu's physical condition, and chatted about some family issues.

From time to time, some explorations about the internal situation of the Hyuga clan will be mixed in the topic.

In this way, he was courteous and probing at the same time.

Although Ryosuke is an immature child, Tokugawa Momo doesn't mean to despise him at all.

A child from a ninja family cannot be measured by age.

After all...they are a group of ruthless people who dare to go to the battlefield to fight at a young age.

And Ryosuke always maintains a calm posture, but does not take the initiative to control the rhythm of the chat.

Whatever Tokugawa Shigeru asked, he answered.

Of course, some of the more important things in the clan, Liang Jie said something vague, people listened to half-understandable words, and were fooled.

And Tokugawa Momomo's words have always been testing whether the purpose of their visit this time is the same as in previous years.

But every time Ryosuke wanted to answer directly, he quickly avoided it, as if he was unwilling to put the problem on the bright side, lest it would be irreversible.

Since Tokugawa Momo is not in a hurry, Ryosuke is even less in a hurry.

He seemed respectful, but actually answered his questions casually.

And Zongci and Xingcai stood behind him, with their backs straight, holding a plate to eat to replenish their strength.

Back and forth like this, until the sun was about to set, Tokugawa Shigemo finally couldn't help Ryosuke's water-tight reply, he laughed, and planned to ask directly, "Although Mr. Ryosuke is young, he is quite knowledgeable. Vulgar, chatting with you, I almost forgot that you are still a child."

As he spoke, he laughed heartily.

And Ryosuke was sitting opposite him, not self-effacing, just smiling and accompanying him.

"After talking for so long, I almost forgot the business. I don't know if Ryosuke came here on behalf of the Hyuga clan this time. Is there anything you want to change about the rules set by us in the past?"

After all, Tokugawa Momomo asked Ryosuke the purpose of this visit on behalf of the Hinata Clan.

He half-closed his eyes, and although the gentle smile on his face remained unchanged, there was no smile in his eyes.

"Daimyo Tokugawa misunderstood. Although I am here to see you this time, the rules remain the same."

Facing the hesitation of Tokugawa Shigemo, the daimyo of Fire Nation, Ryosuke smiled and explained, "Our clan is still very satisfied with this matter and attaches great importance to it, especially with the recent injection of a lot of fresh blood in the clan, and the expenses It’s become enormous in every way.”

"That's why we pay more attention to the cooperation with the nobles in the country."

His words are sincere and sincere.

But the meaning expressed in the words made Tokugawa Momo, who was opposite him, sink in his heart.

With just a few words, he understood what Ryosuke meant.

The cost of the family is higher than before, isn't it just to raise the price?

He had been afraid to ask directly just now because he was afraid of this situation.

Kai Gong didn't turn his head back, and when he asked this question, Ryosuke answered almost explicitly, if he didn't respond, he would inevitably lose face to their Hyuga clan.

"How is it? Your Highness Tokugawa."

Ryosuke looked at the silent Tokugawa Shigemo, "In the past, our family served you, and the price we gave you was 5.00% less than the amount of the commission issued by the village, but the number of tasks you gave was not very large."

"In the past, our family had little expenses and no missions, but we just tightened our belts and passed."

"But now, life is hard..."

This kind of private work is not uncommon in major countries and ninja villages.

Regardless of the village as an intermediary, if you directly accept the task with the client, you can get more commission money.

But only a well-known family like the Hyuga clan has such an opportunity.

Most of the small families, based on their ability and prestige, can only rely on the village's reputation to accept tasks honestly, but once given the opportunity, many people don't mind this kind of behavior.

However, other than the Hyuga clan and the Uchiha clan, other clans in the village have been rapidly decreasing in recent years.

The reason is that the village is using some systems to prevent such things from happening.

In Muye Village, those families who have been completely assimilated by the will of fire and become real members of the village will not do such things that take private jobs and harm the interests of the village.

For the sustainable development of each family, Konoha gave them some suitable resources.

Like the Qiudao family, they run a barbecue restaurant.

Under Konoha's channel arrangement, the barbecue restaurant operated by their family is very famous in the whole country of fire, forming a complete industrial chain and brand.

This way of making money is both formal and legal, and many small families who were originally incapable, seeing the benefits, also moved closer to the will of fire and took the initiative to assimilate with the village.

This has also led to the fact that relatively independent families such as Hyuga and Uchiha now have an increasingly awkward position in the village.

"Actually, regarding this matter, the Uchiha clan also sent someone to give their opinions."

Tokugawa Momo had a look of embarrassment on his face, but his heart was extremely calm.

Ever since he learned the identity of Ryosuke's clan, he has been stalling for time, trying to find out the purpose, and at the same time thinking about the reason for prevarication.

This afternoon's "chatting" was not really spent in the short-term at home.

"The ninja world is so chaotic, and there are occasional business trips abroad. It is inevitable to ask for some ninja protection."

While explaining, he shook his head regretfully, "But Mr. Liangjie, you also know that there are only so many of us, and there are only so many tasks that can be entrusted every year."

"Occasionally there are some unexpected tasks, and I will give them to you Hyuga clan first."

"But recently, the Uchiha clan also came to comment, saying that the number of tasks is not enough, and they want to raise the price, but how is this possible? If it really reaches that price, then we might as well go to Konoha to officially release the commission ..."
