Ninja Shiranui

However, the timing was miscalculated. The cultivated area in Konoha is very small, because most of the land here is occupied by residential buildings. Coupled with the vast jungle and the facilities that some ninjas need to use, there are not many fields that can be supplied to farmers for cultivation.

Standing on the edge of a not very big field where people were busy sowing seeds, I was lost in thought for a while.

The sowing was obviously done with some kind of machine. It was not big. It had the same principle as the seeders I had seen before. A row of small hollow iron plowshares were inserted into the soil that had been initially loosened. They moved forward while driving some kind of machinery. The mechanism rotates and the wheat seeds are evenly taken out of the small box above and scattered into the soil.

The power source of this thing is a few genin.

Yes, they were not cows or horses, but genin. One of them even knew each other. One of the people who retreated from the battlefield with him looked familiar.It seemed that unlike the previous one who was lazy, this one was very active and found a new team to start the mission the day after he came back.

Konoha carries out a large number of D-level tasks for newly graduated genin, most of which come from this kind of agricultural production activities. With the strength brought by chakra, they can work as cattle and horses to earn a little reward.

This is a very strange situation, I thought about it for a while.

Konoha obviously gives preferential treatment to the very small number of farmers in the village. Heavy physical work in the fields, sowing, weeding and harvesting can all be done by hiring ninjas at a reasonable and affordable price. The food they produce is purchased The price must not be very low, at least it should be much higher than ordinary farming people in the Fire Country.

This model can only operate in this small village, which is neither too big nor too small. Once it expands to the scope of a country, it will immediately collapse.

There are relatively few ninjas, but the vast majority of humans are digging in the soil.

I greeted a few people from a distance, and then asked the smiling farm owner some questions I was concerned about, and got the answers I wanted.

Ninjas are still used as beasts of burden, which means that there is no such thing as a chakra engine.In contrast, industrial products such as chemical fertilizers and pesticides are naturally not available yet.

After saying goodbye to them, Ji went to the library and borrowed a bunch of books.

At noon, I went to Ichiraku Ramen for a meal, and then returned home. I first conducted some routine ninja training, refining chakra, getting familiar with ninja tools, and practicing seals and ninjutsu.It wasn't until the sun set in the west and started to glow red that he began to study the words carefully one by one.

Jian is also a person who loves to read, although he doesn't like to study, he just likes to read novels.

Although you can try to read these books as novels, after all, they are far from interesting. If you can't fully understand what you read and just keep reading, anyone will feel irritated.Fortunately, things are really different now. I have a strong understanding ability. I can understand some obscure contents to a certain extent after thinking about them, so I won’t have too much impatience.

Read until late at night, mess around with a few late night snacks, sleep, wake up, wash up, eat, practice, eat, read, eat, sleep...

Three days of this boring cycle passed.

The one who interrupted his daily routine was Itachi again.

It was evening at this time, and Itachi came over with dinner. What he saw was that his hair was messy, and his body had begun to smell a little bit. He was holding a book and reading in trance. Even though he, the guest, had already arrived in front of him, he was unwilling to move his eyes. open.

Itachi noticed the title of the book:

"Detailed explanation of Yin Yang text."

"Is something wrong?" Shi Jian was obviously a little impatient, because at this time, his mind was really focused on the content of the book.

This is a feeling that was unimaginable before. Boring and boring knowledge books are actually so attractive to people. You can constantly learn things from them that you have never known before, and your brain can constantly absorb and organize them. Form a system and use it when needed.In such a simple and boring process, the sense of satisfaction generated by continuous acquisition never disappears and continues.

Maybe this is the world of the god of learning, right?

If I could learn in this way and my brain was so flexible, maybe all the great scientists, thinkers, and philosophers would become targets, instead of squatting in a room playing games and getting that simple but happy kind.

"Did I disturb senior?"

Jian shook his head, folded a corner of the book, closed it and put it aside, rubbed his temples with his hands and said:

"No, you came very well. If no one interrupted me, I might become a nerd. This feeling is actually a bit scary..."

Itachi felt a little confused, but did not ask further:

"I came here just to express my gratitude to my seniors for helping me solve some questions."

"Um..."

"Also, there is new news coming from the front. Kirigakure has begun to take large-scale actions. The war seems to have started again."

Shima naturally took the lunch box from Itachi's hand and opened it to see rice, sushi, cut lettuce and small tomatoes, and cutlet.

Very tasty.

"Don't worry, with four... Minato-senpai here, Kirigakure can only bluff in the end. If we really have to fight a large-scale battle, Konoha is not afraid at all."

What Jian said was absolute, because he knew that it was some old Yinbi who was behind this, rather than Kirigakure losing his mind and wanting to fight with Konoha, but it was difficult to say this directly.

Itachi nodded and started chatting about some family issues:

"Senior lives alone and doesn't need anyone to take care of him?"

Swallowing a mouthful of rice, he leaned back and assumed a lazy posture: "What kind of care do I need? If my parents are still alive, then I have to live with my parents, but they are gone, and I live alone." , actually not bad.”

Although he said this, he also knew in his heart that he was not a cultivator who did not eat the fireworks of the world. As long as he was still a human being, he needed to communicate with others, otherwise loneliness would be something that could destroy his reason.

"Of course, you can come and have a chat with me, and I have to thank you."

"Senior Jian, don't you have any friends?"

"It counts."

The original owner's withdrawn character really didn't have any close friends, but when he came here, who was the closest person he could be considered a friend with?

The ferret in front of me?Or Shisui who took care of him, Yun who treated him as a younger brother to fill the pain, and the medical ninja Ai Shisama.

"But unlike me who can come back to rest, they are probably still working hard on the battlefield. I think they will return to the village safely."

The war will be over soon, so there should be no need to worry about these people dying suddenly.

Shisui was the least of his worries.

Itachi stayed for more than half an hour, and before leaving, he still took the empty lunch box with him. According to etiquette, he should have suggested that he should keep the lunch box and wash Itachi before picking it up next time, but he was too lazy to engage in such indifferent politeness.

Auntie couldn't help it. This kind of false politeness in interpersonal relationships was what he hated the most. Even if he could understand it now, it didn't mean that he needed to abide by this set of rules. With such a personality, there was no other way.

After sending Itachi out, he wiped his face hard with his hands after returning to the room:

"I can't be so decadent anymore. Let's go out for a walk tomorrow!"
