Puppeteer in Naruto

A few hours later, Takeda and Koharu, who had gone to bed, finally finished their business and it was time to talk about other things.

"Konoha is short of food. They want to send me to Loulan to buy food from you. What do you think?" Xiaochun said seriously as he went to bed.

"What's the difference between buying it and not buying it?" Takeda said calmly.

After going to bed, Xiaochun thought for a while and said seriously, "Whether you can buy it or not, it actually doesn't matter much."

Takeda nodded and said seriously, "Then you can't buy it! Otherwise, if you succeed every time, it will make people doubt our relationship."

After turning to bed, Koharu nodded. Takeda's words made sense and sighed, "Okay! Then I can't buy it!"

"Don't sigh! Just because you can't buy food from Loulan doesn't mean you can't buy food. I asked my people to pretend to be grain merchants, and you can just send someone over to buy it." Takeda smiled.

After turning to bed, Koharu nodded happily and said seriously, "Takeda, how much food do you have left?"

"Anyway, that's all. How many do you want?" Takeda said casually.

"Of course, the more, the better." Xiaochun said with a smile when he went to bed.

Takeda pondered for a while, and realized that he did have a lot of food on hand. He had been buying food so that the Kingdom of Wind could not buy food.

Even if there is no war now, we still have to suppress the Kingdom of Wind and not let them eat enough. The Kingdom of Wind will always have a food shortage crisis, so that the Kingdom of Wind will not be petty.

The food on the market still needs to be snatched, but you can selectively sell some food.

It's almost enough to keep enough food for Loulan and Anmu to use for five years. When new food comes into the warehouse, the old food can be sold.

But you can’t sell them all to Zhuanqian Xiaochun, otherwise the quantity will be too large.

It just so happens that Konoha is short of food now, so he can sell the food to Konoha at a high price.

"Koharu, food is very expensive now, more valuable than money. As long as it doesn't break, it will increase in value if you put it in your hands." Takeda said calmly.

"I know this. You will never suffer a loss in terms of price. The premium is 20%." Xiaochun said seriously when he went to bed.

"The market price is enough. You make the extra money yourself. What I mean is that I can't sell it to you cheaply." Takeda nodded.

After going to bed, Xiaochun nodded happily. After he went back, he would raise the price by [-]% and report it to Konoha, so that he could make a net profit of [-]%.

And the premium of 30% is not high. It is good to be able to buy food now. Takeda is giving money to make money for itself.

Three days later, Koharu arrived at Loulan, just to go through the motions. After Takeda met Koharu once, he never saw Koharu again. His attitude was very firm and he refused to sell food, which meant that there was not enough food in Loulan.

After going to bed, Xiaochun had to talk to Sarah, but of course Sarah said no.

But on the third day after Xiaochun's arrival, the caravan of the Daimyo from the Kingdom of Wind arrived in Loulan, bringing 10 carts of ore. It was so heroic, and this is what gifts should be like.

To Takeda, ten carts of ore is really not much. After refining, there won't be much left, and it is worse than ten carts of scrap iron.

But it would be too ugly to give away scrap metal. Anyone who gives gifts would give away scraps. A daimyo from the Kingdom of Wind would not be able to do such a thing.

After Koharu saw the ore after going to bed, he contacted Takeda.

In the Loulan Palace, Takeda used the Flying Thunder God technique to secretly enter Koharu's room, and brought Koharu to his lakeside home in the Bird Country.

"What's wrong?" Takeda asked confused.

"I saw the caravan from the Kingdom of Wind transported the ore to Loulan. Do you need the ore?" Xiaochun said seriously as he went to bed.

"Yes, of course I need ore to make puppets." Takeda smiled.

"Now that I've discovered it, it won't make sense if I can't get the food back." Xiaochun said seriously when he went to bed.

Takeda nodded, and what Koharu meant was that since Takeda needs ore, he can exchange the ore for food.

If Xiaochun can't even think of such a thing and can't do it, he is not qualified to be an elder.

"Then exchange the ores for food. You contact Sara first and she will contact me, and then we can just go through the motions." Takeda said calmly.

"Okay, let's do it like this!" Xiaochun said seriously when he went to bed.

During the dinner, Sara told Takeda about Koharu's request to move to Koharu, and Konoha was willing to exchange ore for food.

Of course Takeda agreed, and the next day he found Koharu, who was sleeping with him, and talked for a long time in the office.

In fact, after being happy for a long time, the deal was finalized, but the previous plan remained unchanged. Takeda would still send his men to sell another batch of grain to Koharu.

In this way, Koharu can get two batches of food. It doesn't matter if Koharu is transferred to Koharu. Anyway, Konoha pays for it and makes profits from it.

People from the Darkwood Merchant Department have contacted the Fire Country Daimyos and are willing to sell a large amount of food, but the settlement must be made in gold or silver, not banknotes.

Today's money is becoming less and less valuable. This was Takeda's request. After consideration, the Fire Country Daimyo agreed.

The people from the Anmu Trading Department approached Mito Monobu again, and they also sold food, but for no money, they had to use the shops or land in Tanshu Street in exchange.

Mito Kaden must have a way to get the shops or land in Tanshu Street, it just depends on how much he can get.

Now that the Fire Country is short of food, Mito Kadoyan gritted his teeth and agreed. If the worst happened, he would buy it back by force.

After the transaction was completed, Takeda now occupies a total of [-]% of the shops on Tanshu Street, covering all walks of life, as well as a large piece of land.

After the Darkwood Trading Department got the shop and the land, they immediately changed hands. In fact, it still changed hands to the Darkwood Trading Department.

It's just to deceive others. After a period of time, it will continue to change hands, and the land will eventually be transferred to Kawaguchi Yoji's name, which is equivalent to being transferred to Takeda's name.

Takeda will blatantly build a base in Tanchu Street. The Fire Nation cannot do anything to Takeda. Tanchu Street is an entertainment center and a commercial center.

At that time, it will be like planting a nail in the Kingdom of Fire. If you want to remove this nail, you will have to destroy Tanshu Street. I don't know if the Kingdom of Fire will be willing to let it go.

The Fire Nation purchased four batches of food at one time, but only one batch of food was actually needed. Four batches of food were obviously too much.

However, these three people don't know yet.

After Koharu returned to Konoha, he began to prepare ore, and by the way, he also received the food sold by the Anmu Trading Department.

Because Mito Monobu had to transport food, he came back a little late and transported all the food directly into Konoha.

Koharu's first batch of food will soon be shipped to Konoha. Sarutobi Hiruzen is very happy. Konoha will no longer be short of food.

However, after I heard that Mito Gate used land and shops in Tanshu Street in exchange for food, I almost cursed Mito Gate to death.

The Daimyo of the Land of Fire quietly traded a large amount of grain and notified Danzo, asking him to transport the grain.

This is the third batch of food. Suddenly, there seems to be too much food.

There is also the fourth batch of grain that needs to be traded with Loulan. It is impossible not to trade it now, otherwise who knows what Takeda will think.

Sarutobi Hiruzen had another headache. He had no food before, but now he had too much food, but having food was better than having no food.
