The Unholy Man of the Warring States Period [Naruto]
Chapter 23 Handshake
It's easy to say harsh words, but it's not that easy to pull someone away.
Pulled, but didn't pull. Looking down, Hashirama had a rare expression on his face.
"How could you lie, Tobirama? We can obviously take on this mission."
"Because we are ninjas! Ninjas don't do other things!"
"Is that so?" Hashirama crossed his arms and propped his chin with one hand, thinking for a moment and clapped his chin happily. "But I offended Miss Izayoi, so let's take it as an apology."
He turned around and said to Izayoi: "It is not convenient for Senju to take on this task. But I can take it on my own behalf. What do you think?"
"Brother!" Qianju Tobirama growled angrily. I didn’t read the follow-up after the rant.
Things developed out of Senju Hashirama's control, and Izayoi saw that he could no longer control Senju Hashirama. And Senju Hashirama's bottom line is surprisingly flexible.
Compared to Uchiha Izuna, who he had dealt with before, he not only agreed quickly, but also separated the group from the individual very skillfully. The excuse is reasonable and the reason is sufficient. No matter which side we face in the future, we will be able to perform flawlessly.
The same reason as Senju Tobirama - ninjas are not allowed to engage in other professions. Uchiha Izuna used this excuse, and Senju Tobirama also used this excuse. They are indeed mortal enemies who have been fighting for more than ten years, and their brain circuits are exactly the same.
She didn't believe that Qianju relied on his tasks to make a living. Even if they are at the top of the industry and occupy the majority of the task share. However, relying on a single source of income for a long time is easy to be manipulated at the source, and it is impossible to live such a prosperous life.
What Senju Tobirama said was just a cautious and judgmental refusal.
But Senju Hashirama nodded. Depending on the situation, Hashirama will listen to his brother's opinion on small matters. When it was his turn to make a decision, he had the final say.
This also means that she cannot bypass Senju Hashirama's deal with the Senju clan.
Izayoi closed her eyes helplessly, rubbed the beads and thought for a while, and finally nodded lightly.
Hashirama was overjoyed and laughed happily. "Great! I'll go back and clean up, and I'll come over to help tomorrow!"
"It can't be calculated like this, Hashirama-kun. We have already cleared up both parties, so this employment is calculated separately."
Izayoi raised his hand and called Butterfly over. "Go to my room and take down the package with the blue background and white flowers."
The corresponding plan had already been made in advance when choosing Tuanchu Street as the second destination.
The plan brought by Butterfly combined the experiences of many people in the valley settlement.
The first is the most important security issue, which Izayoi is responsible for solving. Tianshu also proposed the need for special venues and townhouses for training and placement of defense team members.
The second step is the resettlement of civilians, including but not limited to houses, wells, water houses, and a series of supporting facilities.
Finally, it is also the foundation of troubled times - fields.
Izayoi held the scroll and was silent.
Senju Tobirama was evaluating her abilities, and she was considering Senju's reliability.
It is beautiful to dance on the tip of a knife, but if it is slightly wrong, it will be doomed.
What if Uchiha learned that she turned around and hired Senju and became angry? What if Senju insists on excluding Uchiha? What is more likely to happen is that the two sides are in a fight and do not care about anything else. How can oneself, with a weak foundation, deal with sudden dangers?
Everything is open to question. Without a more perfect plan and a deeper understanding and control of the ninja's weaknesses, the foreseeable future would be chaos.
Judging by the experience of the past life, there is no need to put effort into it. This project can be forked.
But now is not the peaceful and stable environment like in the previous life. Everyone has passed today and wonders if there will be a tomorrow. Living with your head in your belt, how can you think about growing trees in ten years and cultivating people in hundreds of years?
Izayoi unconsciously bent his fingers and tapped on the wooden table. She said nothing, and Butterfly and Shikasuke didn't say anything either.
Tobirama was surprised to find that the person in charge of the negotiations was actually the young Ji-kun. He looked towards Nara Shikasuke: Are you lying to me?
Shikasuke lowered his head and took a charcoal pen to write and draw on the rough paper, pretending to be immersed in accounting.
According to his observation, Senju Tobirama is more shameless than his brother. Now that we are willing to sit down and talk, we definitely can't just throw up the table and leave immediately. He must win back his principal before choosing his next move. This is his confidence and his way of doing things, which is very shrewd.
"Hahahaha. You don't need to calculate so carefully! I am here to help you willingly, and I really don't need to pay you. And if I pay you, it will be bad for Senju's reputation. Right, Tobirama?"
Hashirama's loud voice broke the slightly tense atmosphere. Izayoi's long-simmering complaint was interrupted, and he suddenly couldn't remember what he was being pretentious about.
They come, the security. It makes no sense that these guys can struggle to survive, but they can't do it themselves. We've come this far, and if we don't take a gamble, I'd be sorry for the effort I've spent.
"This is really not possible. Hashirama-kun, what I want to ask you cannot be completed by you alone. Of course, it must be given to you with a more formal commission."
"Senju no..."
Izayoi raised his palms to interrupt Tobirama's retort.
"Tobirama-kun too. Please listen to me first."
She unfolded the scroll. The half-arm-long scroll was not only filled with words, but also with corresponding pictures. With just a few strokes, the appearance of the object is described.
"First, I need to hire someone to build a few row houses on the outskirts of Tuanchu Street; then I need to install a well; and finally, I need to customize some simple protective equipment, just wood."
Hashirama touched his chin and asked curiously: "Are you planning to move the izakaya there? The business there is not as easy as here."
Izayoi smiled slightly and said, "It's just to resettle my villagers."
"Are you planning to move your entire village here?"
"Almost, but there are not many people left." Izayoi calculated with his fingers, "The first batch will only be about twenty. Two row houses can almost accommodate them. Build an extra one to store sundries. There also needs to be a cover on the well to prevent contamination. There are also utensils and so on. One person is really too busy."
After being silent for a while, Tobirama finally spoke. "Since you have your own villagers, you must have your own territory. Why should the settled people be forcibly moved to Duanchu Street?"
"Because their home is gone."
In just one sentence, it contains enough information. There are not many people, their homes are gone, and the villagers have moved away. Doesn't that mean that as a lord, Izayoi also loses his territory?
Hashirama's eyes became watery again. He leaned towards Izayoi sincerely, "It's not easy. When you encountered a disaster, you didn't forget to take them to escape together, and you personally took care of the livelihood. It's so admirable!"
Izayoi held the vine whip between the two of them and said in a wary tone that it was nothing. She stepped back slightly to avoid the unbearable weight of the mountain.
Does Senju Hashirama have any self-awareness? It's like facing a super-large Alaskan that desperately wants to play with people. It's cute, but it's too enthusiastic and people can't stand it.
Avoiding talking to him, Izayoi turned to Senju Tobirama to propose terms of the deal.
"Although I don't know why ninjas can't engage in other professions, I can change the way of paying money. I wonder if there are women or children in your tribe who don't show up much. I can provide them with a job in the terraced house. The mission funds will be distributed in monthly installments. Of course, it would be even better if food and lodging are all included, and family members can come to visit them at any time and help prepare meals for the relocated people."
In this world, children start out as apprentices very early, learning skills while working for their masters. But they have no income, and their lives depend entirely on the Master's thoughts. Therefore, many apprentices died before reaching the age of apprenticeship.
And there are fewer industries that women can work in. Most of them were doing business without capital. They suffered from ailments at a young age and died early without saving much money.
Ninja women rarely go on missions as ninjas. They have the ability to conceive and are not as powerful as male ninjas. They are often the first hunting targets of other clans in the Lang Ninja black market.
There is no need to reveal the ability of the ninja, food, accommodation and wages will be included. You just need to keep silent about the real transaction content.
In this way, the identity of female children has become their protective color. No matter how much others pry, they won't realize that a person sweeping the floor and cooking is a Senju Ninja. You can also take this opportunity to collect information openly!
Therefore, the conditions given by Izayoi can be said to be tailor-made for them. No, it’s tailor-made for Thousand Hands!
She didn't use any conspiracy to set up her brother, but she openly displayed the barcode to attract the Thousand Hands clan to extend their tentacles to the outside world.
To be honest, this offer is really hard to refuse.
To a certain extent, Izayoi is taking the initiative to show that he can act as a cover for Senju to expand his power. Just like the gambling house as a black market, or even the beginning of power extended by the nobles.
Coupled with the fact that since his eldest brother succeeded the clan leader, he has continuously persuaded and united other ninja clans to get rid of their destiny being influenced by tasks. The conditions proposed by Izayoi Princess can greatly repair the debt to the clan caused by his repeated tossing actions.
But just because of such generous conditions, it made him even more suspicious.
The eldest brother's over-eager pursuit showed a guilty conscience, and Izayoi's rejection was unreasonable. Obviously the eldest brother is so good and strong, and he is an ideal husband for women.
No matter how he looked at it, he always felt that these two people were working together to trick him, just to get him to agree to the unreliable fantasy of all ninja clans in the world forming an alliance.
"I need to think about it before I reply."
Tobirama chose a less direct way of refusing, leaving a gap for possible accidents.
Izayoi also knew not to rush things and push people too hard. Calculating the time, Uchiha Izuna should have met the big fish she deliberately let go, and would almost come to her to discuss follow-up cooperation matters. Give Qianju some time to think, just in time to stagger the two parties, making it easier for you to make arrangements.
"Okay. I hope Tobirama-kun will consider my proposal carefully. After all, I couldn't find a reliable craftsman so I came up with such a useless method. If you can introduce a familiar carpenter later, it doesn't matter if the craftsmanship is a little bit inferior, please Be sure to introduce him here.”
Izayoi stood up and held out his hand for a handshake.
Tobirama first bowed and nodded, and then was stunned by her palm waiting in mid-air.
What does it mean?
Hashirama on the side laughed, stepped forward, took the initiative to hold her hand, and shook it gently twice.
"Is this considered an agreement? Izayoi."
"Ah."
Izayoi nodded and said, "Can you let go? Hashirama-kun."
"Ah ha ha ha ha! Of course, of course."
Hashirama winked at her and leaned forward to whisper quietly at a volume that everyone present could hear. "Don't worry, I will definitely help you."
Thank you so much! Thank you, I really appreciate it!
"It's getting late, and the wine shop is about to close. Please think about it carefully after you go back!"
Izayoi put on an amiable smile, turned him around half a circle with his clasped hands, and pushed him out of the door.
