Naruto: Starting from Tsunade-san

In the room, there was a table with food and wine on it. It looked like the standard was even higher than the banquet just now.

Before Sarutobi Hiruzen could speak, Prince Huang Ren took the initiative and said: "This is a good thing I specially left for you, because there is not much, and I am afraid that it will be eaten by others outside."

Sarutobi Hiruzen looked weird and couldn't understand the opponent's operation.

Prince Huang Ren sat cross-legged on the ground and held his hands warmly: "Don't just stand there, let's have a few drinks. You are the Hokage and I am the elder brother of the Daimyo. In terms of status, we are almost the same."

Showing courtesy for nothing is either cheating or stealing.

Prince Huang Ren deliberately emphasized the relationship between the two people, laying the foundation for the following dialogue. More importantly, Prince Huang Ren was so polite, reminding Sarutobi Hiruzen, the third generation Hokage, that I have something to ask for next. As for you, I hope you have some B-numbers and don’t know how to appreciate others.

A normal ninja's brain may not be able to turn around, but it is impossible for Sarutobi Hiruzen, who has lived in the Yuan Fei clan since he was a child, not to understand, otherwise the adults in the clan would be too exhausted.

Sarutobi Hiruzen understood, he borrowed the donkey from the slope and sat on the ground: Well, then I really have to drink a glass of wine, otherwise I will be sorry for Prince Huang Ren's love. "

After that, he picked up an exquisite wine glass, poured it into his mouthpiece, and couldn't help but praise: "It's really good wine."

Prince Huang Ren smiled and said: "As long as you like it, then drink more."

After changing glasses and drinking a glass of wine, Sarutobi Hiruzen's face gradually turned red, and he seemed to be drunk. However, he was not really drunk, but was paving the way for the following conversation, because even if he said the wrong thing, he could use it afterwards. Drunk gaffes cover up the past.

At the same time, His Highness Huang Ren also did the same thing, deliberately pretending to be drunk, shaking his head: "Yes, yes, Mr. Hokage, I have something to say whether I should say it or not."

"Well, you~ said it."

"I heard that Yuan Fei's family used to be a famous name in a certain country, right?"

After being exposed, Hiruzen Sarutobi's pupils shrank, he remained calm and laughed, "That was all a long time ago."

The Yuan Fei family is different from the general ninja clan. They were once the famous name of a small country. Later, due to some reasons, the country was destroyed, leaving only one person and three ministers.

These three courtiers were the ancestors of Zhuludie respectively. Later, these four people gradually gained their own family power. Although Zhuludie no longer had any relationship with the Yuanfei family, due to the special relationship between their ancestors, The Yuan Fei family will give the earrings as witnesses to promote the bond between these three people.

(ps: The above is purely personal. After all, Kishimoto didn’t explain why these families are so close.)

Prince Huang Ren continued to drink a glass of wine: "I didn't expect it to be true. Lord Hiruzen is now on the throne of Hokage and can resume his ancestor's feats. It will be just around the corner."

Sarutobi Hiruzen shook his head: "That is all in the past. Now I just want to be the Hokage of Konoha..."

Huang Ren nodded with satisfaction. Through this conversation, he understood Sarutobi Hiruzen's attitude and continued: "Then the Fire Nation's national defense will rely more on Konoha in the future."

"Of course there is no problem. Let me ask you boldly, how much money will be allocated to Konoha this time."

Although the current world situation is based on a one-country-one-village system, ninja orders are not absolutely distributed according to one country and one village. For example, the task order of the Daimyo of the Land of Fire can actually be given to the ninjas of Kirigakure Village, and they will happily accept it. , the more orders the better.

But in most cases, because they are relatively close, task orders are given to the ninjas of their own country.

In addition to being the top leader of the village, "Kage" is often also the symbol of the highest combat power. Konoha has just lost such a huge combat power as Shadow, which is bound to be affected internationally, and orders will inevitably decrease.

Ninjas are not engaged in production, and all their income depends on task assignments and allocations from daimyo.

The most important thing for Hiruzen Sarutobi to become Hokage is to solicit sponsorship to solve the problem of food and drink for the ninjas in the village.

The daimyo looked embarrassed, stretched out his fingers one by one, and then said a very tight number.

After hearing this, Sarutobi Hiruzen begged, "This is too little. Can there be more?"

Prince Huang Ren sighed: "Farmers' harvests have not been good recently, and there is no surplus food in Daming Mansion..."

"But……"

"Ouch……"

"Your Highness Huang Ren, what's wrong with you?"

"It seems like you've had a bad stomach. Just wait for me and I'll go relieve myself."

Prince Huang Ren stood up and left, leaving only a confused Sarutobi Hiruzen. He was thinking about what medicine he wanted to buy in his gourd. Suddenly, two women in hot clothes entered the room. If you look closely, you can see that these two women are exactly the same. He was obsessed with the dancer who danced at the banquet just now.

When Sarutobi Hiruzen was stunned, two dancers came to him and toasted him: "His Royal Highness Huang Ren is temporarily busy, and we will serve you next..."

Soft and fragrant in his arms, with two bewitching bitches right next to him, Sarutobi Hiruzen couldn't hold it any longer, and then he couldn't hold it anymore.

"Hey, why are you taking off your clothes?"

……

……

Prince Huang Ren who left the room did not go to the toilet, but went straight to another room.

In the room, a 12-year-old fair-haired boy saw Huang Ren and asked, "Father, has the matter been resolved?"

Huang Ren smiled slightly: "Nine times out of ten."

Sarutobi Hiruzen is a smart man, and with his political wisdom he will understand what:

If he doesn't accept it, how dare I give him money?

Huang Ren's son was puzzled: "Does my father really need to do this? Wouldn't it be better to directly allocate funds?"

Huang Ren sighed: "Lan Ren, you don't understand. Ninjas are different from the samurai class in the past. This collective is too powerful. Some powerful ninjas can even conquer a country by themselves. The only thing we can control them is money. If there is no Without financial constraints, the ninja will become an uncontrollable force and even endanger the dominance of our daimyo."

He is not being alarmist.

He had been fortunate, or rather unfortunate, to meet such a ninja.

Just a single blow flattened several mountains. In the face of such great power, any money, status, wealth, etc. were of no use and were useless.

Whenever he thinks of those blood-red eyes, Huang Ren's body can't help but tremble. He feels like an ant, whose life and death depend on each other's thoughts.

However, what made him even more desperate was that there was not only one person like this, but another person who was stronger than him, and they all used to live in Konoha.

How could Huang Ren not be on guard against someone who could crush him to death with just one finger?

Fortunately, these two people are dead now, but the village they left behind is also very capable of fighting. If these ninjas really want to overthrow the daimyo, it will not be easy.

Therefore, the ninjas in these villages must be controlled, no matter what method is used.

He is definitely not the only one who has this idea. Those in other countries who secretly control the country like himself must also be wary of their own ninjas, and are actively thinking of ways to weaken these ninjas and recruit them into their ranks.

In fact, the daimyo did not want to admit the one-country-one-village system. It was a forced compromise made due to formality.

The strength of the ninja they really want is completely under their own hands, instead of having to allocate budgets every year like this.

A bunch of idiots want to be on equal footing with the nobles. What a joke. Now admit it, it's just a tactic to slow down the war.

In order to let his son better understand this truth, Huang Ren had to start continuing education like mushrooms after rain: "Lanwan, let me ask you, how does a country count as strong?"

Ranmaru said without hesitation: "If the people are strong, the country will be strong; if the people are weak, the country will be weak."

He thought this sentence must be correct, but his father strongly denied it.

"wrong."

"wrong?"

Huang Ren said categorically: "That's right, and it's a big mistake."

"???"

Ranmaru remembered that his father told him this sentence when he was a child, but why he said it now was completely opposite to what he said then.

"Ranmaru, you are older now, and it's time to tell you some things. I didn't tell you when I was a child, because I was afraid that you would be careless with your words, act recklessly, and have a bad impact. Now that you have grown up, you know What does it mean that you can eat things indiscriminately but cannot talk about it? Now I will simply explain it to you clearly and thoroughly.

As the saying goes: if the people are strong, the country will be strong; if the people are weak, the country will be weak. This is to deceive the inferior people. If the country wants to be strong, it must make the people contribute. Since it is a contribution, then the more the merrier, the better. But If the people contribute too much, the people will be weak. From this, we can conclude that if the people are strong, the country will be weak, and if the people are weak, the country will be strong. The way to govern a country starts with the weak people. "

Ranwan heard this and was puzzled.

Huang Ren continued to educate: "Secondly, it lies in the poor, tired, ignorant, humiliating and abusive people."

These words are not good words at first glance, even he, who was born in a noble family, trembles.

While Sarutobi Hiruzen was messing around with the two dancers, Huang Ren had plenty of time to educate his son, because he still had a very important thing to do next, and when he assigned his son to do it, he had to explain some relationship logic in advance. It's important to make it clear. This is related to all the future interests of the Fire Nation's aristocratic group.

ps: In the original work, the daimyo behaved as stupidly as pigs. That was Kishimoto’s fault. But in reality, some people in power are stupid, so I strengthened them appropriately.
