Naruto: Starting from the Double Kamui

After the announcement was issued, 500 chunin quickly volunteered to sign up to participate in the agricultural pilot project in Anyin Village.

Lin Yu selected 200 chunin who did not have the talent to become jounin and formed an agricultural team.

There were three hundred people left. Lin Yu told them not to be discouraged, try again, and work hard to become jounin. If it didn't work, he would arrange other positions for them.

Now that a team has been established, someone must lead it.

Although the Takamori Nest can convert chakra into power, and cooperate with the production mechanism developed by Kasuke, it allows ninjas who know nothing about agriculture to complete their work with high productivity.

But the person who leads the team must at least have relevant knowledge. There seems to be no suitable person in the hidden village...

At this time, Saori introduced her maid ‘Nadeshiko Nosang’.

Nong Sang was born into a farming family in Nadeshiko Country. He had been exposed to it since childhood and had a wealth of agricultural knowledge. Lin Yu appointed him as the captain.

In the previous second expansion of Ninja Village, Lin Yu reserved 20 square kilometers of land as agricultural land!

Farming land is measured in acres, 1 square kilometer = 1,500 acres, 20 square kilometers = 30,000 acres!

The crops in Naruto World are mainly rice.

Because of different geology and climate, the number of rice harvests each year and the yield per mu are also different.

The rice in the Land of Earth and the Land of Wind is harvested once a year, with a yield of 200 kilograms per mu. In about three years, the land planted will lose its fertility and become barren. New land can only be reclaimed for planting.

For the Kingdom of Earth, which has vast land, this is not a problem, but for the Kingdom of Wind, which has a vast Gobi desert and a harsh environment, it is very fatal.

If one person eats 1 kilogram of grain per day, one acre of land in the Kingdom of Wind is not even enough to feed one person!

The situation in the Kingdom of Thunder and the Kingdom of Fire is slightly better. Rice is harvested twice a year and the yield per mu is 250 kilograms!

In the land of water, it can even be harvested three times a year, with a yield of about 300 kilograms per mu.

But no matter which country it is, its food output has little to do with the people.

Because the world of Naruto is in the feudal era, most of the land is concentrated in the hands of the powerful. The tenant farmers can only rent land from the powerful for planting. Not only do they have to pay high rents, but they also have to hand over enough food to finally get it.

The food supply is so meager that it is difficult to be self-sufficient, let alone sell food.

Only the powerful and rich can buy and sell food!

The Kingdom of Darkness is located between the Kingdom of Earth and the Kingdom of Fire. Under good weather conditions, it can barely produce two crops a year, and the yield per mu is generally around 200 kilograms.

If measured according to this standard, the 30,000 acres of agricultural land in Anyin Village can produce 250 kilograms of rice per mu. Based on two crops a year, one mu of land can produce 500 kilograms of rice. 30,000 acres of land is 15 million kilograms!

15 million kilograms of grain, 20,000 mouths to eat. Because ninjas consume a lot of chakra, the food they need is much higher than ordinary people. They consume an average of 2 kilograms of grain a day. Those 20,000 people eat 40,000 kilograms of grain a day.

That’s 14.6 million kilograms of grain per year.

Coupled with the losses of some intermediate links, we can achieve self-sufficiency!

After three days of training, the agricultural team of An Yin Village took up their duties. As long as they wait for the first half of the year (two crops a year) and the first batch of grain grown independently by An Yin Village comes out, they will be able to achieve self-sufficiency!

There may still be a long way to go before we can be completely self-sufficient in all aspects, but once the food problem is solved, everything will be fine!

The current surplus grain in the granary in Anyin Village is full and can last for three months. Lin Yu plans to purchase three months' worth of grain in the end, so that he can last until the first batch of grain comes out for half a year.

But at this juncture, a very terrible thing happened.

No matter where you go to buy food in the Kingdom of Darkness, as soon as the other party hears that they are from the Dark Hidden Village, they immediately reject it and are unwilling to sell it even if you pay more money!

Lin Yu immediately asked people to investigate the cause, and soon found out that it originated from a decree issued previously by the name of the Kingdom of Darkness!

——'From now on, the Grain Merchants of the Kingdom of Darkness will limit the supply of food to Anyin Village, and strictly control the food entering and leaving the Kingdom of Darkness from various countries to ensure that it does not flow into Anyin Village!'

As for why such a decree was issued, the daimyo explained as follows.

——'The harvest of the Kingdom of Darkness this year is less than half of previous years, and there is no extra food for you!'

Some people may be curious, if you can't buy food from the Kingdom of Darkness, then you can always buy food from other countries, right?

But the Kingdom of Darkness still has such a policy... which has been continued from ancient times to this day!

——'All citizens are not allowed to purchase grain from other countries privately. Even if grain needs to be imported because of insufficient grain production, the purchase must be personally handled by the Daming Prefecture. Grain merchants from various places will then purchase grain from the Daming Prefecture, and the people will then purchase grain from the grain merchants.

Grain shopping'!

With too many intermediate links, prices are bound to skyrocket. People often have to pay several times, or even ten times more, to buy food!

Therefore, when there was a famine in previous years, all the people who starved to death were ordinary people. Those grain merchants and powerful people were better off than during a good harvest!

"If we don't sell food to us, we can't buy food from outside... In other words, we have to wait and starve, right?" Lin Yu leaned on the table and asked Shazhi in front of him.

Shazhi said: "The daimyo said... it's not impossible for us to buy grain. We need him to come forward and coordinate with the grain merchants. In addition, because this year's harvest is not good, if we want to get the grain first, we may have to pay more than before!

"

Lin Yu said coldly: "Oh? So, you just want money?"

Shazhi clenched her pink fists: "One pound of grain...10,000 taels!"

Lin Yu smiled and said: "It is 100 times more than before, haha, it's not bad..."

"So, what to do?"

"We need three months' supply, 3.65 million catties, 36.5 billion taels... How much balance do we have on our books?"

"Not long ago, another small batch of gold was liquidated. After excluding the 100 billion taels just given to Daming Mansion, there is still about 40 billion left."

"Buy it. This is to prepare a coffin for the daimyo. Tell Kakuzu that after half a year, when our first batch of grain arrives, I will kill the pig myself..."

In this way, An Yin Village spent 36.5 billion taels to purchase three months of food!

Late at night, Daming Mansion.

"Your Excellency Daimyo, my subordinates have checked and found that there are no more funds in the Anyin Village's books..."

The daimyo pinched his mustache and said in confusion: "That Uchihaha, eight years ago, just for the matter of changing the country's name, he personally came to my door and used force to coerce me. Now I am beating him like this, and he doesn't care.

It’s vague, why is this?”

Under the seat, the treacherous minister who flattered everyone said: "Haha, I'm afraid... he has recognized his identity! Apart from fighting and causing destruction, what else can ninjas do! If ninjas want to survive in peacetime, they don't have to rely on us!

"

The daimyo said: "If he really understands practical things like this, that would be fine..."

Time passed by, and it was winter... Outside the hidden village, two uninvited guests came.

"The blood pool clan's feud has been settled with Shadow!"
