When the middle-aged merchant was dragged back by Morino Ibiki like a dead dog, Aoba immediately shouted, "Wait a minute!"
He immediately searched his body in disgust. Then, he happily found the one hundred ryo that he had given before. Then, he happily put it back into his wallet and waved his hand to let them take the people away.
Morino Ibiki thought that this guy knew where the information was hidden, so he didn't even let go of one hundred ryo?
He must have gone crazy from poverty!
"Are you sure this guy is really a spy and not you abusing your power?"
"This guy has admitted it himself. Besides, it is already in the hands of your interrogation department. Do you still need to ask me?"
"Hmph, it would be best if that was the case."
"I'm helping you catch spies for free. It's fine if you don't thank me, but why are you so rude?"
"Alright, I'll let one in next time. You guys take your time."
Morino Ibiki's face instantly became extremely greasy, but he had to admit that this kid had some skills. His efficiency was much higher than those who specialized in catching spies.
The reason why his tone was not good was not because he hated the other party, but because he could not face them.
To put it bluntly, it was also tsundere
However, it was definitely impossible for him to admit defeat in front of so many people. At most, he would give a hint.
"Cough cough, we have to take this batch of goods away. Maybe there is some information or dangerous item hidden."
"That won't do! This batch of goods has already been sold to me. If you want to take it away, you can pay the market price!"
The scar on Morino Ibiki's face squirmed like a centipede. In the end, he admitted it with a black face.
"One million ryo of silver. It can only be a lot. It can't be less. Otherwise, don't count on me to catch spies."
It was the first time that Morino Ibiki had dealt with such an arrogant and cheap person.
He was very uncomfortable, but there was nothing he could do.
In the end, he could only say, "Don't let him go again next time." As a stepping stone for himself, he left in a hurry with his men and goods.
The guards were already full of admiration!
Compared to the little bit of filial piety they had eaten, Shinomiya's ability to turn white into black was something they could never learn in their entire lives!
Not only did they eat all the money and goods, they didn't even let anyone go in the end.
It was truly terrifying!
Hiss...
Aoba didn't care if these souls had come up with something strange. He only knew that as long as the' knifescar face 'didn't blacken his money, this mission would be considered stable.
However, if he wanted to continue expanding the results of the battle, he had to work harder!
I don't know if I can meet such a fat sheep in the remaining twenty days...
Morino Ibiki moved very quickly. He pried open the spy's mouth and immediately reported the latest information to the Hokage.
Then, after looking for someone to estimate the value, a million ryo quickly arrived in Aoba's hands.
He wanted to run the horse and wanted the horse not to eat grass. Was this a good thing?
Compared to the harm that spies could cause to Konoha, no one would be stupid enough to swallow this 'spoils of war'.
Therefore, after getting the one million ryo, Aoba immediately began to think about how to be a good scatterbrain.
First of all this 'ill-gotten gains' was definitely to be spent, otherwise it would not complete the task.
Compared to the prestige and skill card of the mission reward, this money was nothing. Even if he spent it all, he would not feel any heartache.
The problem was how to spend it according to the system's requirements
What did it mean by donating to someone needed?
Aoba felt that he also needed it very much, but the system would definitely not leave this loophole for him to exploit.
Therefore, he still had to find a way to get to the truth.
Although there was no shortage of poor people in every place, he was very disgusted with the crude way of giving money to the poor.
Because doing this could not change anything. When this money was spent, the poor would still be poor, and there were very few poor people who could change their fate with such a small amount of money.
Moreover, he did not want to be a sucker, or be sprayed as a saint.
Thinking about it, he could not think of any good ideas.
Therefore, he decisively threw the blame to Itachi...
Night, the starlight was bright.
After work, the 'Konoha Guardian' that was actually Aoba, and Itachi, who had already become the leader of the clan, sitting back to back against a tree.
Ever since he became the clan leader, Itachi had not relaxed like this for a long time.
It was just that the question of Aoba coming to him for 'asking for guidance' made him very confused.
"How could you think of doing this kind of thing?"
"Don't ask, asking is burning money!"
Then Itachi carefully pondered this matter and asked uncertainly, "Don't tell me you want to use this method to increase your reputation among the commoners?"
Aoba was now very suspicious that Itachi also had a system, and it was the kind that could be connected between the two sides!
Why could you even guess such a thing?
"Uh, I guess so. The old man has been sending people to look for Jiraiya and Tsunade recently. He should already have an idea."
Smart people understand.
Itachi immediately understood what he meant. He was not among the candidates of the 5th Hokage!
In fact, this was not surprising. Instead, it was surprising that Sarutobi regarded Aoba as the candidate of the 5th Hokage.
But the reputation of the civilian class was important. It was useless to say that it was not important.
After all, the Hokage was not chosen by everyone, and the most important thing was to see who the next Hokage wanted.
The higher-ups of Konoha were qualified to make suggestions, but the Hokage could also not listen to them. He was just so willful.
Unless the Hokage accidentally died, just like that time, all the higher-ups of Konoha, Land of Fire, and the officials would hold a meeting to discuss the selection of new candidates.
Aoba's previous arrangement was also to strive for the identity of the candidate. Only when someone from the higher-ups of Konoha proposed his name would he have a chance to compete. Otherwise, there would be no chance to compete.
After carefully thinking for a long time, Itachi said to Aoba, "Maybe we can change the way. Rather than fighting for the opinion of the civilian class who is not so important, it is better to focus on investing in the ninjas with civilian background, or simply take out this money to provide a chance for the civilian children who want to become ninjas!"
The rights, status, and even the right to speak were undoubtedly far beyond that of ordinary people.
After listening to Itachi's idea, Aoba immediately felt enlightened!
That's right, giving people fish is better than giving people fish!
This was the person who truly needed this money to change his fate!
Moreover, wasn't this same as those big companies in his previous life who had come up with a scholarship?
Using a little money to exchange for the favor of the majority of high school students, when they graduated, they could also gain a batch of talents to work for themselves.
In this way, the children of poor families had the opportunity to change their fate, and those companies also received fresh blood and real benefits.
It was a win-win situation!
