Naruto: Dark Night Shura
Chapter 60
In the Hokage's office.
Nara Shikaku just came in and saw the Hokage's eyes glued to the crystal ball, smiling brightly.
He felt that he came at the wrong time, in a dilemma, and coughed twice.
"It's Shikaku! How is the negotiation with the delegation going?" Seeing Shikaku coming, the Third Hokage put away the crystal ball without blushing or beating his heart.
"Hokage, Uchiha Makoto wants the bottom price!" Compared with the bottom price, what he wanted more was that the Third Hokage would be willing to give in.
As long as the Third Hokage said a word, he would give him full authority to do this, so that both parties could reach a satisfactory situation.
The Second World War lasted too long, not only the village, but also their families could not withstand such consumption.
He is not only the brain of the Hokage, but also the patriarch of the Nara clan. While considering the village, he also has to shoulder the responsibility of the family.
The Third Hokage saw Shikaku's attitude towards this matter, sighed, and explained: "Konoha's current economic situation is very bad. The daimyo has not sent supplies for several months. If we don't get compensation, the pensions of the heroes of World War II will not be settled."
Nara Shikaku's eyelids jumped. What the Third Hokage meant... Konoha is poor now. If you don't pay so much money, you will have to increase the family's taxation!
"They can't buy all the prisoners. It is very likely that they will compromise."
The Third Hokage took a deep breath. At the age of forty, his face was full of vicissitudes. Nara Shikaku frowned and began to make the worst plan in his heart. He just hoped that Uchiha Makoto would not do anything weird now!
"Shikaku, war damage must be compensated. After all, the war was not started by us. As for the prisoners... you can exchange them if you don't pay, and you still have to pay if you can't exchange them."
When Nara Shikaku came out of the Hokage's office with a gloomy face, the Hokage did not give him any way out.
The three tribes of Ino, Deer and Chou are of the same blood. He cannot implicate the Akimichi and Yamanaka tribes. In addition to the alliance, he is also good friends with Yamanaka Inoichi and Akimichi Choza.
The dawn light struggled out of the sky and hit Uchiha Makoto's face through the window.
Since he came back, he likes to sleep in and stay up late more and more. He usually squeezes out time for training, or uses his shadow clone to practice, but the fatigue after removing the shadow clone makes him feel uncomfortable.
"Makoto, Kakashi is here to see you."
Uchiha Reina's voice came from outside the door, and Uchiha Makoto covered his head and pretended not to hear it.
"Makoto, get up." Although Uchiha Reina felt sorry for the child, she didn't want Uchiha Makoto to develop the bad habit of not sleeping at night and not getting up during the day, so she opened the door and prepared to pull him up.
Uchiha Reina grabbed the quilt several times but failed to shake Uchiha Makoto out of the quilt.
Kakashi followed in with a frown on his face. He would never admit that he had no power to fight back against such a person.
He put a scroll next to Uchiha Makoto who was lying on the bed and couldn't get up. "This is what my father asked me to bring to you."
"Hmm?" He finally poked his head out after hearing Kakashi's voice. "So early?"
"I still have to go to class. Goodbye."
After Kakashi left, Uchiha Reina lectured Uchiha Makoto for half an hour and finally escaped on the pretext of a mission.
Walking on Uchiha Street, Uchiha Makoto was invited to the clan leader's mansion by Uchiha Fugaku's secret guards.
"Makoto, do you want to have tea together?"
Uchiha Fugaku was a little embarrassed. In fact, he was anxious about when the money would be delivered. He hadn't slept well at home for several days. He felt like he was dreaming. Even if he dreamed of 300 million, he was too embarrassed to ask for it directly. That's when he thought of Uchiha Makoto.
"Master, just tell me what's going on."
Uchiha Makoto didn't want to beat around the bush with him. He wanted to go to the laboratory at Orochimaru's house to see the progress of the Sharingan he cultivated.
Uchiha Fugaku cleared his throat, "The three hundred million..."
"Haven't they delivered it yet?" Uchiha pondered for a moment and asked, "It's been three days!"
"Ahem, indeed, if you don't pay, you'll have to pay interest. The elders are urging us."
Upon hearing this, Uchiha Makoto looked at Uchiha Fugaku with a sharp look in his eyes and said coldly, "Master Fugaku, whether it's a country, a village, or a family, one person in power is enough. You haven't cleaned up these people in so many days. Are you guarding against me or are you being soft-hearted?"
Uchiha Fugaku was shocked, as if he had hit the nail on the head, or more precisely, both.
He had no way to control Uchiha Makoto, let alone get rid of those elders. Now he was holding both sides.
"Zhen Jun, you are joking. How can I guard against you? It's just that these elders are all my father's elders. It's difficult." Uchiha Fugaku hurriedly smiled and patched up.
Uchiha Zhen's heartClear, but a little disappointed with Uchiha Fugaku, he is very powerful, but obsessed with power, bent on a coup, and finally killed by his own son.
"It's up to you, let someone call Uchiha Yan and organize a team to collect the debt."
Soon, Uchiha Yan was taken to the clan leader's mansion, and when he saw Uchiha Zhen, his eyes sparkled again.
After learning some secrets from Uchiha Yashiro, he has been depressed these days. His current task is to secretly protect Uchiha Zhen, but... he is not strong enough!
This made him very difficult, and he fell into a misunderstanding, that is, he stood in front of Uchiha Zhen to fight for him, but his strength did not allow...
"Clan leader, Zhen."
Uchiha Zhen saw that Uchiha Yan, who was frowning, was undecided for a while, whether he had been discovered to have drawn his blood, but he quickly denied it, saying that he had done it secretly, and it would not be discovered as long as Orochimaru did not say it.
"I'm looking for you. The debt owed by Hyuga and Hokage has not been paid. You take a dozen people with me to collect the debt. Remember to be loud and bring gongs and drums. Go to the Hokage building first and then go to Hyuga." Uchiha Zhen patted his butt after saying that, turned around and asked Uchiha Fugaku, "How much commission do I get when the money comes?"
"Commission?" Uchiha Fugaku was confused, and the dark guards hiding in the dark were also confused. What commission? This also requires commission?
Uchiha Zhen narrowed his eyes and asked seriously: "Patriarch, do you want to make 300 million for nothing?"
"No, I will give you 10% as a reward." Uchiha Fugaku made a prompt decision. Uchiha Zhen was not someone he could control, but he could be driven by interests. This was much easier to get along with than those who were seeking fame and reputation and had nothing to lose.
"10%... I will directly deduct the 30 million from the Hokage." After Uchiha Zhen finished speaking, Uchiha Yan, with his eyes wagging left and right, left the patriarch's mansion.
"Clan leader, Uchiha Makoto is too arrogant. Should we suppress his arrogance?" Uchiha Liuhuo frowned and suggested to Uchiha Fugaku.
"Compared with 270 million, a mere 30 million is nothing!"
Uchiha Fugaku looked at the back of the departing figure. Although he was upset, he had to admit that if it weren't for Uchiha Makoto, he wouldn't have been able to get 30 million.
