Konoha's traitor master

Chapter 51

A week after Aoba left for the expedition, the four top executives of Konoha were working in the Hokage Building as usual.

"The Third Generation, we have no money." Mito Kadenyan placed Konoha's latest financial statement in front of the Third Generation.

"Didn't the Daimyo just allocate a sum of money a few days ago?" Sandai frowned.

"It's all used up, and there isn't much money left from the family." Mito Katoyan told the cruel fact that Konoha's treasury had already been emptied a few months after the war started.

"Alas~" The four senior executives sighed together, and then the office fell into silence.

The lack of money was something they had expected a long time ago. After all, setting up a large number of traps requires a lot of money. Especially recently, all countries have been eating up trap materials, and the prices of related materials have increased several times.

For Konoha's top brass, the border battlefields are not traps at all, but money everywhere.

"I'll shamelessly go to the capital again." Sandai was the first to break the silence with a very serious tone. He was the Hokage and had to take the lead in solving the problem.

Most of Konoha's funding comes from the Fire Nation daimyo, but the Third Generation has asked for money many times since the war started.

Konoha's current ability to stabilize the situation despite a numerical disadvantage and a war on four sides is entirely dependent on tactics around trap positions. No one can predict how long the war will last, so Konoha cannot give up the trap.

This gold-swallowing weapon.

"I will organize a meeting with the elders of several families." Koharu then put forward a suggestion. Konoha has no money, but the major families in Konoha are still very rich. When Konoha is in crisis, they will naturally let them

The family also contributes, whether it is human or financial resources.

"Let me go and pay a visit to some of the chambers of commerce that have good relations with Konoha." Finally, Mito Gate Yan also made a statement. These chambers of commerce usually rely on Konoha to make a lot of money, but now Konoha is in trouble.

, it shouldn’t be too much to support some.

"All the funds of the Chamber of Commerce under the Roots have been withdrawn." Danzo said in a muffled voice, these are the private properties of the Roots developed by Aoba, and they have all been contributed.

Now is the time for Konoha's survival, and Danzo won't care too much. What's more, Aoba earned the money, so Danzo won't feel bad about spending it.

"However, several large chambers of commerce that cooperate with the Root Chamber of Commerce have loan business. Some of these chambers of commerce have noble backgrounds in the Country of Fire. If Konoha Village is used as a guarantee, they should be able to get a loan." Thinking of Aoba, Danzo

I also remembered some of the large chambers of commerce that Aoba reported that cooperated with Genbu, so I added.

"Loans are okay!" Sandai and others' eyes suddenly lit up. Although loans require interest, the most important thing at the moment is to get through the difficulties. In peacetime, Konoha will not be short of funds.

"Then I'll give you a hard time, Danzo, and the three of us will act on the proposal just now." The third generation finally made the decision on a huge loan.

After the war, the third generation planned to resign, leaving the repayment issue to Tsunade to worry about. The third generation thought happily: "Well, I remember Aoba is very capable of making money, and I should be able to help Tsunade by then.

It’s done by hand.”

...

When the top management of Konoha was worried about money, in the temporary camp of Iwagakure Village in the Land of Fire, Commander Higashikato looked at the map and frowned, seeming to be thinking about something.

An elite Jonin from Iwakage walked into the camp and shouted cursingly: "Sir, all the traps have been cleared, and the reconnaissance team has lost traces of the opponent. Damn Konoha, how can it be so rich!"

In the past few days, the 2,000 elites of Iwagakure Village followed Konoha's troops to eat dust and dismantle traps. They fought for a week and had three encounters. Except for the reconnaissance team, not a single frontal kill was achieved.

But a lot of traps have been dismantled.

Faced with the complaints from his subordinates, Dongseiren maintained a calm attitude, but he was also very helpless in his heart. He envied Konoha's way of trading money for time, but he had no good way to deal with it.

However, the East Dead Man is not really in a hurry. As a confidant of the Third Tsuchikage, the East Dead Man knows that according to the current situation on the battlefields in various places in the ninja world, the goal of destroying Konoha in this war cannot be achieved.

According to the instructions of the Third Tsuchikage, the secondary purpose of attacking Konoha this time is to maximize the consumption of Konoha while ensuring its own safety, without the need to go deep into the Land of Fire to occupy the land.

After all, the real combat strength of Iwagakure Village is only 2,000 people in the name of vanguard. The so-called "Chinese Army" guarding the supply route of Kamubi Bridge are actually logistics personnel pretending to be there.

The main purpose is to create momentum, seduce the Third Raikage to go out, fall into the ambush of Iwagakure Village, and complete the plan to weaken Kumogakure Village.

Therefore, for the East Dead people, although Konoha's methods are annoying, they are in line with the current strategic needs of Iwagakure Village to protect itself and create momentum.

"Don't forget our purpose." East Dead Man emphasized, and then softened his tone and said: "Now that the trap materials are so valuable, dismantling the traps can be considered a big gain."

After appeasing his subordinates, the East Dead Man once again turned his attention to the map. His map also marked the locations of the three battles.

As an ambitious commander in his twenties, Dongseiren also has his own goals for this battle.

His target is Konoha's commander, Tsunade's disciple, the medical ninja Aoba.

Of course, Iwagakure Village needs a way to heal disabled ninjas. As the commander of Iwagakure Village, many of his subordinates have retired due to disabilities.

However, after today's encounter, his intuition as a commander told him that there seemed to be something wrong with Konoha's actions.

...

"Konoha wants a loan?" On the border of the Fire Country, Aoye, who had just gotten rid of the entanglement of Iwagakure Village, suddenly received a special letter from Aoye's forces operating outside the village.

Aoba's power exists in the form of a chamber of commerce, and it makes full use of modern business methods and management methods, including the parent company's control of a large number of independent subsidiaries, which is also used thoroughly.

Qingye hid the core head office in the dark, and each independent subsidiary it established also used a shareholding system, and then conducted complex cross-shareholding operations, with the purpose of completely hiding Qingye.

In addition, joint-stock subsidiaries can also use their profits to attract nobles and powerful figures from various countries to ensure the development of the chamber of commerce.

With the cooperation of shareholders from various countries, the company can always obtain large orders from Shinobu Village and the country, and cross-orders between various subsidiaries enable Aoba to obtain the maximum benefit from each order.

"It seems that he was really ripped off by me." Qingye touched his chin.

As Konoha's trap tactics played a huge role in defense, not only Konoha's treasury was emptied, but also all countries increased the purchase of related materials.

This caused the price of related materials to skyrocket, so Aoba's pocket expanded rapidly after being sucked by Tsunade.

It is worth mentioning that Aoba pioneered the large-scale use of traps in war.

The chamber of commerce controlled by Aoba just completed the secret monopoly of several core industries related to trap production last year.

You said it was a coincidence.

Aoba smiled slightly, took out a scroll and wrote a larger amount than what Konoha applied for, and then handed it to the waiting psychic beast, Husky Lao Dao. Aoba's confidential information will only come from Lao Dao.

transfer.

Of course Aoye agrees to Konoha's loan, and Aoba even wants to lend more to Konoha. After all, there is interest, and with Aoye here, he is not afraid that Konoha will not repay.

What's more, after Konoha took the money, it also went to other chambers of commerce in Aoba to purchase supplies.

This move is called...well
