Start farming in Konoha

Chapter 23 Bandits Arrive

Watanabe and the others bought sake and cooked the prey they had captured. One day they brought a big fat pig specially. Since they had Xu Qiang's whole pig feast last time, they wanted to eat it again. . When Xu Qiang arrived, the pig had been broken open and washed. When Xu Qiang saw it, he knew that he would be the main dish today. He used all his skills to cook, including ribs stewed in soup, braised pork, braised large intestine, braised pork head, fried pork with chili, etc., and cooked all the dishes he knew about pigs.

When all the dishes were finished, he realized that everyone was waiting for him. The village chief pulled him to the table and said, "We can have such a good harvest this year, and we can finish harvesting and selling out the grain so quickly, thanks to Xu Qiang and his farm tools." Help, come and have a drink with Xu Qiang."

Xu Qiang saw the whole village raising wine and a bowl of wine and said, "Congratulations on our harvest this year. I hope our village will have a bumper harvest next year. Let's do it."

"Do it" the villagers all said.

"Everyone, let's eat," Xu Qiang said. With so much meat and vegetables, the villagers couldn't bear it for a long time. When they heard Xu Qiang's voice, they all picked up their chopsticks and started eating.

Xu Qiang stood next to the village chief and Watanabe and said while eating, "I learned ninjutsu in Konoha Village and found that it is very convenient to use ninjutsu to plow the fields. Like this time, I used ninjutsu to harvest half of the rice in the village. This year I have only cultivated 100 acres of land. Next year, with the help of Ninjutsu, I will set a small goal and use Earth Release to cultivate 1 acres of land first."

Xu Qiang's words frightened the village chief and Watanabe half to death. The village chief happened to be eating pig head meat and was choked. Xu Qiang immediately patted the village chief on the back to reassure him. After the meat went down, the village chief took a deep breath and asked, "Although there are many open spaces next to the village, there are so many fields. Can you come here alone?"

Xu Qiang said seriously to the village chief, "Okay, village chief, you don't know the power of ninjutsu. 1 acres is still a small goal. If my ninjutsu is more powerful, maybe I can cultivate more land. My ultimate goal is 10 acres." Ten thousand acres.”

Watanabe listened to Xu Qiang's target raised from 1 to 10 and was no longer surprised. He said, "Even if you can use ninjutsu to reclaim land, you have never farmed before. Farming is not just about reclaiming land. You can also use ninjutsu to sow seeds, weeding and insecticides, fertilizing and watering. You can also use ninjutsu to do this. You must know that the newly reclaimed land is far away from water sources, and you also have a weapons shop in Konoha Village. Guan, I have so much time to take care of the land in the village."

At this time, the village chief also patiently advised Xu Qiang, "You should feel free to open a weapons shop in Konoha Village. I heard from Nakamura and others that your business is very good now, so why waste your energy on developing your weapons shop?" That’s what you have to care about.”

When Xu Qiang heard what Watanabe said, he knew that he wanted to be simple, but he was still very optimistic about this plan. If he couldn't finish the farming, wouldn't there be ninjas? As long as he hired a few cheap little ninjas to farm, the income would be very considerable. So he patiently said to Watanabe, "I have already thought about it. Heavy physical work such as land reclamation can be solved with ninjutsu. It is usually time-consuming to weed and kill insects, but I can hire ninjas. There are people in Konoha who can do it." The insect master ninja can then hire them to eliminate the insects."

Watanabe almost looked at him as if he were a fool, but the village chief still said patiently, "Hiring a ninja even the cheapest one costs dozens of taels. If you hire a ninja to do farm work, it's not a loss. It's better to give up." Plan it, otherwise all the money you made in Konoha Village will be taken back by them."

Although the village chief meant well, he didn't know that in the future, Uzumaki Naruto would start his career by farming and weeding, and the reward for one mission would only be dozens of bowls of ramen. Although he didn't know how much it was now, he thought it wouldn't be much different, so for such a price, he still Those who can afford to pay, and think about this world, there is earth escape for cultivated land, water escape for watering, the Aburame clan for pest control, and wood escape for plant growth, and there is so much vacant land, this The world's conditions for the development of agriculture are so unique. If we don't cultivate the land, we would be sorry for the souls of our flower growers. "I have thought about this, so I plan to use some small ninjas. They are not very strong, but they can still do these things, and they are very cheap. I found in Konoha that they basically have nothing to do because of their poor strength. The tasks are all maintained by the Leaf Village in vain. Although these tasks of mine are low-cost, they are safe and allow these little ninjas to support themselves."

Watanabe was a little speechless. Although he heard what he said, he still didn't believe that Xu Qiang could succeed in farming, especially if he asked a ninja to farm. How could a ninja master be more powerful than a samurai? "Now that you've thought about it, why are you telling us anything?"

"Of course I need everyone to help. Although I use ninja, I still need everyone's help on a daily basis, so I plan to hire people to take care of the fields during the off-season, and I will still need everyone to help during harvesting." Xu Qiang said to Watanabe and the others. .

"During the off-season, there is nothing in the fields that I can help you take care of. Don't worry, you have done so many things for everyone, so the villagers will still give you this face." The village chief said slowly.

At this time, the sound of many people running suddenly came from the entrance of the village. Xu Qiang's body had been strengthened three times. He heard the crowd more than a mile away, so he asked, "Have anyone else been invited to the village? I feel that many people are thinking I have no idea how to come here."

"No, they are all from their own village. No one from other villages was invited," the village chief replied.

Xu Qiang walked forward and said, "I better look ahead clearly. Nothing will happen." He has always felt insecure in this troubled world, so he has to see clearly if there is any movement. Fortunately, it was not dark, and Xu Qiang saw a group of people dressed in rags, but they all carried swords, and the leader was riding a horse.

Xu Qiang judged that they were bandits, so he immediately shouted: "Village chief, they are all carrying swords. It seems they have bad intentions. Tell everyone not to eat. Take the women and children home and then tell everyone to bring weapons. Watanabe, you and Cang "Tian and the others take out their muskets." Then he called Nakamura and Hamura over, took out the grenades that had been in the system space and said, "If there is a fight later, you can throw this at them."

After hearing what Xu Qiang said, everyone immediately did as he said. The village chief stepped forward to take a closer look and found that it was indeed a bandit on the mountain near their village. He said, "Men, hurry up and come to the entrance of the village. It is indeed a bandit near us." , they must be up to no good."

Xu Qiang also took out his long sword. He fell in love with using the sword after learning the Dugu Nine Swords. After thinking about it, the musket was given to the village chief. Now everyone in the village knew that the musket was a sharp weapon, and they all envied Watanabe and the others. But they asked too much about the price of their muskets. They knew that the price of muskets was as high as 50 taels. They knew that they could not afford it, so they never thought about buying it. The village chief also knew the power of the musket, and he felt more confident when holding the musket. Then everyone gathered at the entrance of the village with their own rakes and watched the bandits stop at the entrance of the village.
