"Did he really say that?"

In the Hokage building, Shenyue, who was handling official business with the Senju brothers, had a very interesting expression after listening to the proposal of Tsuchikage Ishikawa. For a moment, he couldn't tell whether the pie that fell from the sky was a pie or not.

Does Ishikawa really know what he said? This behavior is so stupid that it seems like a trap!

"That way, ugh, isn't it good?"

Hashirama, who was eating, took a big bite of the cake, his mouth was bulging like a hamster, and he also spread the crumbs of the cake everywhere, which made Tobirama, who was standing next to him, so angry that veins popped out on his forehead. He shouted at the sloppy Hashirama like an old woman:

"Brother, finish eating first!"

After cleaning up Hashirama's mess in anger, Tobirama sighed in frustration, then turned his head to look at Shenyue, and there seemed to be a flash of doubt in his red eyes.

"I haven't found anything wrong yet. Have you found anything?"

Shen Yue opened her mouth but didn't say anything for a long time. After being asked by the Senju brothers, she felt that she had thought too much.

Thinking carefully, ninjas really don't understand these things.

They all focus on the underworld operations such as killing, arson and extermination of the clan. They are really good at conspiracy and intrigue, but they can't do economics and governance...

It's not that Shen Yue looks down on them, but even if all the ninjas are added together, they can't make up a whole brain!

Now, peace is the general trend. The ninja world needs a currency that can be circulated and exchanged at will. Konoha coin also has the potential and ambition to become a multinational currency. Doing so can also bring huge economic and political benefits to Konoha. Why not?

"It's very good, but..."

Shen Yue knocked her head. For some reason, she was still a little hesitant. In the end, she chose to believe her intuition. After clenching her teeth, her mind turned rapidly.

After a long period of thinking, she finally figured out what was wrong. She suddenly slapped the table and said in shock:

"Konoha doesn't have such strength now!"

Konoha now adopts the grain standard system, and the grain standard is more suitable for war-torn times. Once it enters a peaceful era, the value of grain will be greatly reduced and it is no longer suitable as a currency or general equivalent.

With the growth of Konoha and the weakening of the daimyo, the internal situation of the Land of Fire has stabilized. Shen Yue plans to gradually replace the grain standard with a gold exchange standard similar to the Bretton Woods system. This is why she agreed directly after hearing that Liedou offered the gold mine.

Becoming a transnational currency certainly has many benefits, but if the Konoha coin with an unstable foundation is now allowed to be used in the entire ninja world, there will be too many hidden dangers.

If Ishikawa is smarter and joins the other three shadows to carry out large-scale exchange and hoarding, let alone whether Konoha's grain will be lost in large quantities, the serious outflow of Konoha coins alone is likely to cause a large amount of currency printing and inflation!

Throughout the ages, the final result of excessive money issuance is without exception the total collapse of the financial system and national credit. It seems that this old guy Shihe is really something!

For a moment, Shenyue was frightened by his own guess and broke into a cold sweat, as if he had just been fished out of the water.

How could a guy who could subdue ninjas and open up ninja villages in the chaotic ninja world be really simple? The consequence of being careless about the four shadows is that they were dug a big pit without knowing it, and they almost fell into it without knowing it!

After being awakened by Shenyue, Hashirama lost his appetite. He slowly put down the cake in his hand, lowered his head and was silent for a long time. I don’t know what he was thinking. Tobirama couldn’t help but stop his work and his back began to feel cold.

"But Shihe can only play this kind of opportunistic trick."

Shen Yue, who had calmed down from the panic, suddenly sneered coldly and shrugged nonchalantly. Shihe's idea was beautiful, but with Konoha's strength, how could it be defeated by such a small trick?

It is the real combat power that establishes the prestige of currency, but it is the materials that really support the credit of currency.

In terms of combat power and materials, can there be a more powerful existence than Konoha in the entire ninja world?

In this way, Shen Yue, who was a little irritated, made up his mind to make Shihe look good.

Since he was the first to propose that everyone use Konoha coins, then wait and let you see the power of Konoha coin hegemony!

But at the moment, we must proceed step by step. We can only complete the reform of the currency system before settling accounts with Shihe.

"Let's postpone this matter for now, and talk about it after I come back from the Wind Country."

Shen Yue thought deeply, the stability of the value of currency is not only the basis for realizing the function of currency, but also the most valuable part of it, which is important for long-term economic development.The benefits of development are far greater than the short-sighted approach of excessive money issuance and recklessly stimulating economic development.

The citizens of the Land of Fire, who have been suffering from currency chaos, cannot withstand new twists and turns. If Konoha is to completely replace the rule of the daimyo, then maintaining good credit is the top priority.

It’s just that the trip to the Sand Village, which could have been temporarily shelved, must now be put on the agenda as soon as possible. The sooner the gold mines in the Land of Wind are obtained, the better. In comparison, the One-tailed Shukaku is not so important and can only be regarded as a small addition.

Of course, the gold and silver veins that have been in the hands of the daimyo, nobles, and wealthy merchants in the Land of Fire should also be taken away. In the past three years, Tobirama and his Anbu have already investigated the intricate interests in it and have been swallowing up the small fish and shrimp in it.

And now, it’s time to close the net and catch all the fish together.

The Senju brothers nodded. In the areas they couldn’t understand, they had already given up thinking like Uchiha Madara and simply listened to Shen Yue’s ideas.

Soon, the topic of the three people turned from Shihe and currency to the cheap food that Konoha provided to other villages. The kind-hearted Hashirama quickly offered an extremely low price. It can be said that Konoha did not even make a profit, which made Tobirama very angry, but unexpectedly, Shenyue directly affirmed Hashirama's idea.

In fact, she was more inclined to use cheap food to control the entire ninja world.

"The food for Sand Village can be 10% or 20% cheaper, even if we lose money, it's okay. If it doesn't work, I can use Wood Release to produce it."

Among the four major ninja villages now, Sand Village is undoubtedly the most sensible. It not only sends tailed beasts but also gold mines. It is of course natural to give some benefits to obedient younger brothers.

Moreover, the Wind Country, a remote and barren place with no birds shitting, is undoubtedly the easiest to control. As long as they continue to increase their dependence on Konoha's food, there is no need to worry that they will rebel.

It would be best if Konoha could become the granary of the entire ninja world. In the past, the daimyo could control the ninjas with food and wealth, and Konoha could certainly use the same trick to control the entire ninja world.

If they dare not obey and start a war at will, then just cut off the food supply and see if they can still fight!

And this is what Shenyue came up with and was strongly supported by Senju Hashirama, a method that can make the ninja world peaceful for a long time.

.....

Although the first Five Kage Talks have not been over for a long time, the general pattern has been formed. Konoha and Sand Village have formed an alliance, and Kumogakure and Iwagakure are huddled together for warmth. As for the Mist Village, it seems indifferent, neither showing goodwill to anyone nor accepting anyone's olive branch. It can be said that it has isolated the entire ninja world with its own strength.

...What is the Mizukage Byakuren thinking?

Shenyue, whose head began to ache at the thought, grabbed a handful of konpeito and ate it to replenish the sugar for his tired brain. At this moment, Uchiha Madara pushed the door open and walked in, followed by Hikage and Momoka.

"I want to go to the Sand Village with Shenyue."

Uchiha Madara came straight to the point and made a natural request, with a momentum that if you don't agree, I will tear down the Hokage building.

Everyone hesitated to speak, after all, if Madara went with Shenyue, it would not be like going to the Sand Village for friendly diplomacy, but directly conquering and occupying the entire Wind Country!

But in the end, no warrior dared to say the above words, and Uchiha Madara successfully joined the team.

"I want to go too!"

Hashirama also raised his hands excitedly, his heart and eyes full of expectations, he really wanted to go on a public trip!

"No, don't even think about it!"

However, Hashirama's proposal was directly rejected by all the members. He instantly became like an eggplant hit by frost, and the whole person wilted listlessly.

But there was no other way. Senju Hashirama and Uchiha Madara, the two strongest fighters, had to leave one person to calm the situation.

"Let me go!"

Then, Huo He and Tao Hua both recommended themselves in unison. As soon as they finished speaking, the two enemies began to stare at each other in dissatisfaction. If it weren't for Uchiha Madara, the two would have almost quarreled again.

However, Tao Hua was kicked out of the reserve candidate soon.

As a core member of the Anbu, she must also stay in the village, but Huo He, who has been handling clan affairs for Uchiha Madara, is not so important in comparison.

"Father, if you leave, who will handle the affairs of the clan?"

Looking at the heroic Huo He and the dejected Tao Hua, Shen Yue couldn't help asking him:

"I can let others handle the affairs of the clan!"

Miqi and Inari's grandfather, as well as Uchiha Setsuna, can temporarily replace Huo He to handle clan affairs. Weighing the benefits,In the end, Uchiha Kanoko became the winner of this duel.

Taohua, who was so angry that her teeth itched, couldn't help but grab Kanoko's collar and dragged him out. After the two left, more and more people knocked on the door of the Hokage's office. In addition to the Uchiha and Senju people, a group of combat ninjas who had nothing to do all day also came to recommend themselves. The Uchiha cubs and students of the ninja school also clamored to go with Shenyue.

Just when everyone was arguing, just to go to the Sand Village with Shenyue, what people didn't expect was that Senju Tobirama suddenly put down the paper and pen in his hand, rubbed his frown, and in the almost horrified eyes of everyone, he said in a tone that could not be refused:

"This time, I will go with you."
