Chapter 82 The First Business

If the merchants from Yu, Turkey and the two countries see that there are huge profits on this trade route, then there will be a large number of merchants coming for money without Yichen having to worry about it.

At that time, all Yichen has to do is to maintain the safety of business routes, and he does not need to worry about other things.

Feeling that the future was bright, Yichen escorted the caravan to the border of the two countries smoothly. After arriving at the border, according to the agreement with Yahiko and others, he found a team organized by Akatsuki, with a total of 8 people.

, two teams. Yichen handed over the escort task of the caravan led by old man Guangzhao to this team, and then Team 7 waited at the border.

This is the first business. Although Yichen and the others have time, they can escort Guangzhao and the others to their destination, but this is meaningless. They must get used to having Yu Ren take over the escort in the middle, and wait until they finish the exchange in the Kingdom of Rain.

After returning the goods to the Kingdom of Earth, Yichen and the others will take over the escort task.

During the days of waiting at the border, Yichen and the others will not be lonely. As ninjas, of course they are training when they have nothing to do. Yichen has just learned three B-level ninjutsu and two range-type attack ninjutsu: Storm Rush

Wave and group water line jutsu, a high-intensity attack ninjutsu in a local area: group water line jutsu.

Yichen just took this time to demonstrate it to his teammates.

In addition, after changing to a new physical training method, Yichen also had to take time to adapt. After all, in order to adjust the training method, Yichen even changed the weights on his body. This time was just used for training.

Moreover, Yichen now has a very important matter that he needs to deal with calmly.

That is, after more than half a year of basic swordsmanship practice, Yichen was finally able to meet the requirements of Zidian. Now Yichen can stab the wooden doll for about forty times in a row, and guarantees the first thirty times.

Now I can hit them all accurately.

This also means that Yichen can practice B-level swordsmanship.

When Yichen completed the puppet training for the first time, it can be said that his eyes filled with tears.

For more than half a year, even during the execution of the mission, Yichen did not interrupt his basic training in swordsmanship, so he was able to meet the standard.

And think about when did you redeem that sword skill scroll? I can’t remember clearly, but it’s been a long time since I got it. It’s so uncomfortable to be able to see whether I can practice or not.

It's not that he couldn't practice sword skills forcibly before, but Yichen didn't have time. His time had already been arranged, and there was no extra time for sword skills training. Unless he gave up a necessary project, and this was Yichen's

Unacceptable.

Now that the basic training of swordsmanship is over, the free time can be used to practice B-level swordsmanship.

Anyway, it will take a long time for Guangzhao's caravan to return, and Yichen can be used to practice sword skills.

The basics of swordsmanship training before were very simple, just how to draw the sword, the basic attacks of the sword, such as stabbing, cutting, picking and other single movements. What Yichen practiced was the power of these single movements.

Technique and accuracy in every move.

With this foundation, Yichen felt very smooth when practicing B-level sword skills. Although Yichen also knew that such complex sword skills could not be learned in a short time. But during daily practice, Yichen

Even the dust can feel the growth.

Yichen feels that his sword skills are improving every day, and he even has the illusion that he is playing a game where he can accumulate proficiency by completing tasks every day. Once enough proficiency is accumulated, he will be able to use his sword skills naturally.

The feeling was so wonderful that Yichen was immersed in it unconsciously.

It was not until more than ten days later that Guangzhao's caravan finally returned. However, it was no longer just the two small teams of ninjas escorting them, but three more people, namely Yahiko, Nagato and Xiaonan.

Seeing the excitement on the faces of the three of them, Yichen knew that Guangzhao's trip should go smoothly.

Yahiko came to Yichen one step ahead of the others and said excitedly: "Yichen, you are so awesome. I didn't expect you to arrange a caravan to come here so soon."

Yichen smiled and said: "Actually, it's not too fast. The main reason is that my team happened to have a vacation, which delayed some time."

"But it will be easier to handle next. Grandpa Guangzhao said that in the future, trade in agricultural products and the like can be carried out close to the border between the two countries."

Yahiko nodded and said: "Yes, yes, senior Guangzhao also told me. We will make arrangements. Next time, we will arrange it directly at the border between the Kingdom of Rain and the Kingdom of Earth, so that the caravan can make more trips.

"

At this time, Xiaonan and Nagato also came up. They looked at Yichen with very grateful eyes. Yahiko and the other two regarded the common people of the Land of Rain as their own family. Any action that can improve the lives of the common people of the Land of Rain

, they will all be grateful.

Next, Yichen discussed the details of the caravan's march with Yahiko and the others.

Yichen asked Guangzhao, Xiao organized the escorts, and Team 7 about all the trivial matters in the entire process, and then listed all the things that could be done better.

With this goal in mind, an action manual was compiled. The major and minor matters recorded in the manual were used as the code of conduct for the next trade.

This operation made Yahiko stunned.

Yichen smiled and said: "We can't compete with those big caravans. Only by doing a good job in details and saving costs can we bring greater profits to the caravan. Only with profits can we attract other caravans to join us."

.”

Finally, Yichen pointed to an open space not far away in the Kingdom of Rain and said: "There, the Akatsuki organization has established a supply station. This supply station can provide rest and replenishment for the traveling caravans."

"It's just that I don't have much say in Iwa Ninja Village right now. This supply depot is located in the Country of Rain."

"When I get more support from the village in the future, we will also set up a supply station here in the Kingdom of Earth. This will facilitate the handover between the two of us and improve efficiency."

Yahiko's eyes lit up and he said: "This is a good idea. I will make arrangements to build this supply depot as big as possible after I return."

Yichen shook his head and said: "We can't do this. Let's build a small one first, and then slowly increase it as the caravan increases. We can't always rely on our enthusiasm to do things, we have to consider the cost."

"Now we are doing this without any regard for reward. It is entirely a joint contribution from both parties. But in the future, when our caravan grows, the two countries behind us will also benefit from it."

"For example, caravans will drive the development of villages and towns around the trade routes. For example, caravans will bring more tax revenue to the two countries. Although there will be less tax on the border, domestic tax revenue will increase."

"From now on, we must consider the interests of the country at every step and make all parties feel that this matter is good for them, so that everyone will support it."

"If we rely solely on our ideals and let the ninjas pay blindly, everyone will feel conflicted."

Yahiko thought for a moment and said, "But don't ninjas escort caravans for free?"

Yichen said: "We don't accept money from the caravan, but the forces behind us can give it. For us, it will be given by our country of earth, and for you, it will be given by your country of rain."

"As for where the money for both of us comes from, this is what I just said about increasing taxes. If both of us bring benefits to our respective countries, then the daimyo of both sides will definitely agree to give our ninjas who perform caravan escort missions

Task reward."

Yahiko's eyes lit up, and then he understood what Yichen meant: "You mean, we must pay the ninjas who perform the escort mission, and the source of the reward is the names of both parties. If we only take the reward for escorting the caravan, we will only do it

Regarding escorting the caravan, if the supply depot is to be expanded, the daimyo will have to issue a separate task to expand the supply depot?"

Yichen nodded and said: "We ninjas can't always perform tasks for free. It's just that for the task of maintaining the caravan, the reward must be paid by the daimyo. After all, the daimyo is the one who benefits the most after the caravan is established."

Yahiko nodded and said, "Don't worry, I will go and convince the daimyo."

Yichen is a little envious of Yahiko at this point. Yahiko's Akatsuki organization has already established a large foundation in the Land of Rain. Yahiko can also speak to the daimyo. It is actually not difficult to get some mission funds from the daimyo.

But Yichen's side is not easy to deal with. In a short period of time, he must rely on the Iwa Ninja Village. Only after the Daimyo of the Earth Country truly sees the benefits brought by the caravan can he possibly persuade the other party to escort the caravan.

Money. And even if that day comes, the person who comes into contact with the daimyo will not be Yichen, because the weight of Yichen is too light.

Fortunately, the Iwa Ninja Village is much larger than the Akatsuki Organization, so I don't care about this little money for the time being.

And what Yichen didn't know was that from Onoki's point of view, it didn't matter whether the daimyo supported the trade. If Yichen could really handle this matter, then Onoki could use this as a reason to ask for more military expenses from the daimyo. And

As long as the daimyo pays more for military expenses, the expense of maintaining trade will be nothing.

This is actually Yichen's limitation. In his two lifetimes, he never stood very high. When he stood at the highest level, he was just a keyboard warrior.

After chatting about business affairs for a while, Yichen suddenly proposed to discuss things with Yahiko and the others. In fact, Yichen had wanted to do this for a long time, but the relationship between the two parties was not that deep before, so it would be very impolite to propose it rashly.

But things are different now. Not only do the two sides have common ideals, but they also have a common cause, and the relationship between Yichen and Yichen is getting closer. It would not be too much to make this request again.

Yahiko was stunned for a moment after hearing this, but he was simple-minded and agreed immediately.

At this time, the caravan crossed the national border and entered the Kingdom of Earth. At this time, the caravan was about to take a rest.

So after Yichen explained to his subordinates for a while, he and Yahiko left everyone's sight. The four of them came to a lake. This was Yichen's request. Yichen's best ninjutsu was water escape.

Places with water sources can exert greater power.

The first person to fight Yichen was Yahiko. Yahiko committed suicide in the original work, and there was no description of his strength. However, Yichen could sense that Yahiko was also a jounin, and that the opponent had become a jounin earlier than him.

It's just that Jiraiya didn't teach them too many ninjutsu, so Yi Chen thought that he still had a certain chance of winning.

But as soon as they fought, Yichen felt that something was wrong. Yahiko was indeed not a ninjutsu-type ninja, but Yahiko's physical skills were obviously much stronger than Yichen.

Although Yichen has made great progress in the basics of swordsmanship, he does not have a systematic swordsmanship after all. Yahiko has been fully taught by a shadow-level expert. Although Jiraiya has not always protected the three of them when they grew up, he has learned it early.

A growth path was drawn up for the three of them. Yahiko and the other three practiced according to the methods taught by Jiraiya, and the detours they took were much less than those of Yichen.

So as soon as the two of them fought, Yichen discovered that Yahiko's foundation was much stronger than his own.

The strength of this foundation does not refer to the level of talent, but to the fact that it has grown very reasonably and brought out the ninja's strengths very accurately.

As for Yichen, he had become a monk halfway through physical skills and had just begun to learn complete sword skills.

Therefore, from the beginning of the battle between the two, Yichen was completely at a disadvantage.

Fortunately, Yichen gained a lot of experience in fighting jounin under Ide's guidance a while ago. On the other hand, Yahiko, after becoming a jounin, actually did not take action many times. Although the Kingdom of Rain is chaotic, its strength is

Most of the powerful Jōnin are in the Rain Ninja Village. Although there are many Jōnin from various large and small forces outside the Rain Ninja Village, they are actually quite peaceful among themselves.

So Yichen can still barely support it.
