"The daily consumption of an army of 50,000 is an astronomical amount. This is all money."
The daimyo's sinister voice made the senior Suna ninjas in the conference room frown.
"This is all your fault!"
"So the responsibility should be borne by your Sand Ninja Village. Finance Officer, let's settle the accounts!"
The expressions of the senior Suna Ninja officials instantly became extremely ugly.
They were still curious before that the daimyo came to Suna Ninja Village and wanted to bring the financial officer with him. They thought he was here to get a raise.
Who knew, he was here to settle accounts.
The financial officer did some calculations and the results came out quickly.
"Lord Daimyo, the 50,000-strong army consumes about 50 million taels of food, grass, fresh water and other supplies every day."
"Because the ninjas sent by Sand Ninja Village failed to destroy the Great Wall of Bird Country in time, the army was delayed for at least ten days. In total, it cost at least 500 million taels more."
Chiyo couldn't sit still anymore, stood up and said loudly: "This is impossible!"
"On average, one person consumes one thousand taels a day. This is absolutely impossible. When ninjas go to war, they consume less than one hundred taels a day."
She pointed at the treasurer and said, "You must have miscalculated."
The financial officer smiled and said: "Grandma Qiandai, don't worry, it's not more than one thousand taels per person. This is a conservative estimate."
"Warriors are not like you ninjas. They have no chakra and rely solely on physical strength to move. In addition, they wear thick armor, so they eat a lot, and they must eat well to ensure their physical strength and combat effectiveness."
"They don't know the magic of teleportation, and they don't travel very fast. They will be very tired from traveling long distances in the desert, and their legs are easily injured. They need to consume medicinal materials every day to soak their feet to relieve fatigue."
"The heat in the desert is extremely hot. Warriors often suffer from heatstroke, which consumes more medicinal materials."
"Taking it all together, one thousand taels per person per day is really not much."
Chiyo wanted to say something else, but the daimyo said directly: "Granny Chiyo, you don't think that my financial officer deliberately miscalculated the accounts, do you?"
Chiyo snorted coldly and sat down.
Seeing this, the daimyo sneered in his heart and said: "The account has been settled, 500 million taels. This was all caused by Suna Ninja Village's mistakes, and Suna Ninja Village should also bear the responsibility."
As soon as these words came out, the senior Suna ninja present immediately objected.
"No, this is absolutely not possible!"
"Lord Daimyo, Suna Ninja Village's economy is already in straits, and there is no way we can afford five hundred million taels."
"Five hundred million taels is too much, let's have less!"
…
Everyone was praying for the name, but Grandma Chiyo sat there without saying a word, leaning on the back of her chair and closing her eyes.
Ebizo on the side turned to look at his sister, seeming to realize something.
The daimyo didn't care about everyone's prayers and said: "The country of wind is located in a desert and its economy is already backward. My daimyo's money does not come from strong winds."
"I will not pay for your mistakes."
"I have made up my mind, there is no need to say more about this matter."
Everyone was desperate.
Five hundred million taels, if you take it out, how can you live in Sand Ninja Village?
At this time, the daimyo said: "Of course, I am not a heartless person. Let Sand Ninja Village come up with 500 million taels at once. This is really embarrassing for you. Let's do it..."
As soon as these words came out, hope immediately rose in everyone's eyes.
The daimyo thought for a moment, then turned to ask the financial officer: "How much is Suna Ninja Village's annual funding now?"
The financial officer said: "Returning to the Daimyo-sama, Suna Ninja Village's annual funding is 120 million taels."
The daimyo nodded and said to the senior officials of the Sand Ninjas: "In this way, you won't be allowed to take out the money, but I won't repay the 500 million taels."
"In the next five years, I will only give you 20 million taels of the annual funding of 120 million taels. The remaining 100 million taels should be regarded as compensation for the loss of 500 million taels."
"Five years later, the funding will return to normal 120 million taels."
The senior Suna ninja officials looked at each other.
Five years, only 20 million taels a year?
Send beggars away?
In the underground money exchange, the bounty for any S-class traitor can reach 20 million taels.
"Lord Daimyo, this... this is out of season..."
"With twenty million taels a year, how can Sand Ninja Village develop? We can't even afford food."
"Daimyo-sama, you can't do this. If this continues, Sand Ninja Village will completely decline and even fall out of the top five ninja villages."
"The Sand Ninja Village is an important foundation for ensuring national security. If it declines, once other countries attack, the Kingdom of Wind will be at risk of annihilation."
The senior officials of the village were completely panicked.
If the annual funding is really only 20 million taels, then Sand Ninja Village will be completely destroyed.
Compared to everyone's panic, Chiyo still closed his eyes and showed no reaction.
No matter what these people said, the Daimyo would not change his mind, until finally the Daimyo got tired and simply got up and left.
There was a lot of noise in the conference room.
Everyone is blaming each other and shirking responsibility. I blame you and you blame me. It's a mess.
"enough!"
Chiyo's scolding sounded, and everyone immediately fell silent, and all turned to look at her.
Chiyo sat on a chair and scanned everyone. The people she scanned all lowered their heads.
At this time, Chiyo did not look like the kind old woman she once was, with a majestic look in her eyes.
Chiyo glanced around and said calmly: "Suna Ninja Village was founded by my husband Liedou and me. The purpose of building Suna Ninja Village is to imitate Konoha Village, where various families join forces to stay warm and strengthen their strength. , in order to gain a foothold in the ninja world."
"The Sand Ninja Village was built in the Kingdom of Wind, and its leader was called Kazekage. However, when the village was first founded, the relationship between the village and the Kingdom of Wind was cooperation."
"The Sand Ninja Village provides force to protect the security of the Kingdom of Wind, and the Kingdom of Wind provides funds to ensure the development of the Sand Ninja Village."
"Both are mutually beneficial and win-win cooperation!"
Everyone listened quietly to Chiyo, no one dared to interrupt.
Chiyo glanced at everyone again, then slammed the table and shouted: "But look at what the village is like now?"
"We have a cooperative relationship with the Kingdom of Wind, not a subordinate, nor a master and servant!"
"The way you were begging for mercy in front of the daimyo just now was really ugly."
Everyone's faces turned ugly.
There's no need to say it so harshly!
Wagging our tails and begging for mercy, we are not dogs...
Chiyo continued: "You have to remember that our Sand Ninja Village and the Daimyo of the Land of Wind are just a cooperative relationship. If the Daimyo pays, we will contribute."
"And now, the daimyo can't pay, so what do you think we should do?"
Everyone was silent.
It took a while before someone said: "If the famous person doesn't contribute money, we won't contribute, but..."
Chiyo sneered: "But what? But in this way, we will offend the daimyo, and we won't even be able to get 20 million taels per year, right?"
The man shut up in embarrassment.
"Twenty million taels a year, what can it be used for?"
"Now I have decided to change the rules in the future. I will no longer accept financial support from the daimyo of the Kingdom of Wind. At the same time, I will no longer provide any free military support to the daimyo of the Kingdom of Wind."
"If the daimyo needs ninja, then spend the money."
"Send out one genin, and each person will be tasked with five thousand taels of gold per day."
"Deploy one chuunin, each with a mission of fifty thousand taels per day."
"Send out one Jonin, each with a daily mission of five hundred thousand taels."
"This is the most basic fee. In addition, it also depends on the task level. The higher the level, the higher the task gold."
Having said this, Chiyo was quiet for half a minute and then stood up.
"Who among everyone here objects to my opinion?"
In fact, everyone is against it.
The daimyo's need for ninjas is actually not great. Ninjas will only be used when war breaks out.
After all, in the ninja world, the daimyo's status is very noble, and few people would assassinate the daimyo.
It is enough to have warriors to protect the safety of the daimyo.
So regardless of the high mission gold mentioned by Chiyo, this money is definitely difficult to earn.
But opposition is opposition, and Chiyo is so aggressive that no one dares to say anything against it now.
"Well, since there is no objection, then this matter has been decided. After discussing the details, we will directly inform the Daming Mansion."
Now some people couldn't sit still.
"Grandma Chiyo, this won't work. Unless a war breaks out, the daimyo will never spend money to use us."
Chiyo chuckled and said, "Hasn't the war already broken out?"
Chapter 285: Deal with Watermelon, Physical Strengthening Potion
The country of birds, Phoenix Village.
Since the ninja school started, the village has become more and more lively.
Shuimu was walking on the street, and there was a lot of excitement behind him. When he turned around, he saw a group of people walking towards him in a menacing manner.
The leader is Tsunade!
She walked with long strides, the two mountains on her chest were very oppressive, but no one dared to look directly at the men on the street.
Afraid of being beaten!
That fist could easily send someone to the hospital, where they would lie in the ward for three months without being able to get out of bed.
Behind Tsunade, in addition to Shizune, there were several fierce-looking guys.
Each of them was pushing a cart, which contained gambling games.
Cards, dice, etc.
"Tsunade, are you... the casino is closed? Are you going to have a wild game outside?"
Tsunade had a black streak on her head.
Are you polite to say this in front of an old woman in her fifties?
If it weren't for the fact that she couldn't beat him, she would have taken action directly.
"No, I go to school and these things are classroom supplies."
"This class teaches students about gambling."
There is a serious shortage of teachers in the Ninja School, so Mizuki has no choice but to call on everyone to actively participate.
No need to discipline anything.
So, Tsunade taught gambling, Minato taught cooking, Zabuza taught swimming, all kinds of things, not to let the students learn anything, but just to give them more time to relax in the boring study life.
As for the ninjutsu classes, Kakashi is still in charge.
Mizuki said hurriedly: "Oh, don't bother me. Go quickly, the class bell has already rang."
Tsunade and others hurried towards the school.
Shizune deliberately fell a few steps behind, stood next to Mizuki, and asked in a low voice: "Ms. Mizuki, is this really okay?"
Mizuki smiled and said: "What's wrong? Gambling can also exercise the brain. Ninja training and fighting require brains."
Shizune: "I didn't mean that. What I meant was, is it really good to let Tsunade-sama teach gambling?"
