Naruto: Start by eating the golden fruit.

Is it time to do this now?

Youya suddenly realized that if he remembered correctly, Hyuga Neji was one year older than Hyuga Hinata. However, because Hinata was from the main family and Neji was from the branch family, Neci's status was much lower than Hinata, even though Ningci was more talented than Hinata.

But now...

Yuya took this opportunity to personally give a golden lock to Hinata's father, Hinata Hiashi.

Over the years, whenever a child was born to an important ninja clan member, Youya would give the other party some tacky gold.

Of course, the other party would definitely not think it was tacky, and might even think You Ya was very generous. It would be best if he could give more.

When Yuya arrived at the place where Hizashi Hyuga was hosting a party for Neji, Hizashi Hyuga and Hiashi Hyuga were very surprised.

The two of them hurried to the door to greet Youya.

Youya didn't pay much attention to the two people's greeting. He just looked at the place where Hinata Hizashi held the banquet and the few tables of guests inside. Youya frowned: "Are there only these few people?"

Hizashi was a little embarrassed, but he quickly said, "People from other families have actually sent greeting notes and gifts, but they just didn't come in person. Now that Hokage-sama has come in person, I feel more honored than all of them combined."

Youya looked at Hiashi speechlessly: "Are you such a smooth talker?"

Hiashi remained silent.

He is not a child anymore.

He is no longer old enough to be willful.

Rizu on the side was speechless and could only remain silent.

The problem the Hyuga clan is facing now is actually the same as that faced by Uchiha Fugaku.

That is the conflict between the conservatives within their own family and the reformists who are the patriarchs.

It’s not that You Ya doesn’t want to get involved, but once this kind of thing starts, he will definitely be rejected, and may even trigger resistance from other families against You Ya.

It's not impossible.

As for why...

Interest is the most important reason.

Uchiha Fugaku waited until the oldest elder in his family passed away and then seized some power.

But he still couldn't completely control the Uchiha clan.

Apart from anything else, although Uchiha Fugaku has the right to distribute the dividends from the Uchiha clan's water plant and power plant every year, trouble will still arise if the distribution is unfair.

And here lies the problem.

Yuya originally distributed profits to these ninja clans in order to make them stand on his side and support him in becoming Hokage.

There is nothing wrong with this. If you don't give others benefits, they will go crazy to support you.

Over the years, the Uchiha clan has received more than 3 billion taels of dividends every year.

This is not a small amount of money.

Naturally, there are many people eyeing this money.

All the Uchiha clan members who could not get a share of the money have left the clan.

In other words, basically all the people under Uchiha Fugaku can get dividends.

Then the problem is coming.

Uchiha Fugaku wants to integrate into the village, but this money still has to be paid every year. What does this mean in the eyes of other clan members?

What this means is that you, Uchiha Fugaku, want to keep the money for yourself.

Although Uchiha Fugaku's idea was to divide the money equally among the Uchiha clan members every year, those clan members who left the clan land were also members of the Uchiha clan.

But the people in the family and clan land now will definitely not do that.

By doing this, each family could originally get several million taels or even more every year, but now they can only get hundreds of thousands of taels. Who would be willing to do this?

Uchiha Fugaku was speechless.

Conflicts of interest are the simplest and most direct.

The two brothers, Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi, who were originally determined to change the Hyuga clan's main family and branch family system, are now stuck here.

In other words, as the patriarch of a branch family, Hyuga Hizashi's situation is even better than Hyuga Hiashi's.

The Hyuga clan's Konoha Village super amusement park, theme park, and school facilities that they paid for and built also generate billions of dollars in revenue every year.

When the family is divided, only some of the money will be taken, and the bulk of it will definitely go to the main family.

Therefore, there is actually not much resistance for Hyūga Hizashi to reform.

Because these profits are actually only a small loss compared to the benefits brought by integration into the inner city.

After all, when you go to the inner city, express delivery stations, hospitals, schools and so on will be there.

Although the Hyuga clan also has a school within their family, the teachers there are all from the Hyuga clan themselves, and they don't teach math, physics, chemistry, etc. at all - because they don't know how to do it.

So those who go to the inner city of Konoha actually have a better future for the branch family.

But the Zong family wouldn't allow it.

Some people in the main family feel that those who have separated from the main family are slaves of their main family and cannot be allowed to leave the main family.

But this idea is becoming less and less popular now.

Because on the one hand, Hyuga Hiashi does not allow such an idea, and on the other hand, it is because of the legal system reformed by Yuya.

Yuya certainly couldn't just abolish the caged bird system of the Hyuga main and branch families without any hesitation. This would very likely cause resentment among all the people in the main family. If it was just resentment, it wouldn't matter, but Yuya was afraid that these idiots would really dare to resist.

It’s not that Youya is afraid of their armed suppression. He is afraid of nothing. He just doesn’t want the Hyuga clan to be in a mess, otherwise he will lose a lot of working ninjas.

In short, the Hyuga clan has more problems and is more troublesome than the Uchiha clan. No wonder Hyuga Hiashi looks like he's dead.

After Yuya entered the house, he ate some wedding wine and then glanced at Ningji who was one month old.

After that, Youya prepared to leave.

However, he was invited by Hyuga Hiashi and Hyuga Hizashi to go to a room alone to drink.

You Ya was not afraid that these two people would do something bad to him. As I said, You Ya was not involved in the internal affairs of the ninja clan, so there was no possibility that any ninja would be willing to do something to him.

After all, so many people are counting on getting dividends from him at the end of each year.

A few people chatted while drinking.

We talked about the village and then some things outside the village, for example, the Third Raikage, that bastard, had messed with the merchants in his village.

As the atmosphere gradually heated up, Hyuga Hiashi tentatively asked Yuya: "Hokage-sama...what do you think of our Hyuga clan's caged bird technique?"

Youya's hand holding the wine glass paused slightly, then looked at Hinata Hiashi meaningfully.

Then, Yuya looked at Hinata Hizashi in a teasing tone: "I thought...it would be you who would ask me this question."

Hinata Hizashi remained silent.

Hinata Hiashi quickly tried to smooth things over, "I personally feel that this system is no longer in line with the times. I just wanted to ask for your opinion, Hokage."

You Ya smiled and didn't intend to keep the secret, he just said with a look of disdain: "My opinion?

This shitty system is just garbage.

It is said to be used to protect the White Eyes. Is the White Eye so important on the battlefield now? The first generation of drones at the research institute has been successfully developed. It can directly detect the enemy situation ten kilometers away and even transmit images directly back. Isn't this much more useful than your White Eyes?

And protecting the white eyes, these are all bullshit reasons.

Isn't the reason why this shitty system is still in place because some people in your main family want to use it to control the people in the branch family?"
