Konoha United Fruit

Makoto really didn't expect that Jiraiya's heart softened for a while, such a change would happen, and the banana farmers came to him.

What's more unexpected is that these banana farmers still have such a big conflict with Kusa.

Under this kind of contradiction, Konoha-nins took action to teach these scumbags a lesson, which sounded so pleasing to the ear... No words, let's go.

It's a pity not to use this self-delivered excuse for declaring war.

So under the joyful guidance of these young farmers, the group soon arrived at their home.

Banana Village.

This is a very quiet village with a lot of banana trees planted around the village.

The banana farmers who successfully invited the rescuers were in a great mood and kept telling all kinds of interesting things they encountered while taking care of the banana trees.

Because of Makoto's presence, most of the ninjas were silent. Only Jiraiya, like an old farmer, chatted with them kindly.

When he is really interested, Uchiha Shisui will occasionally ask a few questions.

If he calculates carefully, Shisui has been in the army for several years, but he really only ate bananas once.

After all, transportation is not easy in this era, and public security is also poor.

When a cart of fruit was shipped out, it was either robbed or rotted halfway. If it is not the place of origin, the price will naturally be very exciting.

At that time, little Shisui was happy for a long time.

The sweet taste of the fruit left a deep impression on Shisui.

Although Shisui had limited knowledge and experience, the ninjas at that time were so poor.

Now that they have really come to the country of bananas, the joy of it is natural needless to say.

The young farmers led the crowd through the village towards a small water cart.

The sudden visit of so many strangers naturally attracted the attention of many villagers.

However, with the guidance of those young farmers, the mood of the villagers was fairly stable, and nothing unpleasant happened.

They looked at the ninjas with different eyes, happy, sad, numb... But no one stood up to speak, they just watched the ninjas walking towards the waterwheel silently.

Makoto keenly noticed a very strange thing – there are no young women in this village.

The only few women are also in their fifties or sixties, with old eyesight and blurred eyes, and folds on their faces, which make people uninterested.

For a normal village, this situation is obviously very strange.

There is only a lonely hut next to the waterwheel, and there is only an old man with a beard and hair white in it.

There is only a lonely hut next to the waterwheel, and there is only an old man with a beard and hair all white in it.

The old man looked seventy and eighty, and even his breath had a decayed smell. Fortunately, his eyes are still working, and his ears are not too far back.

He is the head of this village.

The young people obviously respected the village chief, and they told the village chief the whole story, obviously wanting the village chief to announce the good news to everyone.

But the village head didn't do this, but let them leave first.

The farmers were puzzled, but obediently obeyed.

Now, only the old village head and a group of ninjas are left.

"Everyone, this village...can't afford to hire you. –

"-let you down."

Makoto looked back at the ninjas and understood why the village chief said that.

The ninjas who came with him this time all have the spirit of arrogance and strength.

This is not only because Konoha won the Fourth Ninja World War, but also because Konoha is doing well now, while the other four Hidden Villages...

Suna is also the winner, but it has exhausted its foundation and has no help from the Land of Wind. For a long time to come, it can only lick its wounds silently – the reason why Suna shifted its focus to wind prevention and sand control, apart from the fact that this is indeed Suna's century-old plan, it is also because they are trying to avoid external struggles as much as possible.

Not to mention the two defeated ninja villages.

There are ninjas fleeing every day, and those who don't escape are burdened by the double exploitation of creditors and funders, and their lives are not as good as ordinary thieves.

Kirigakure did not really participate in the war, but Kirigakure offended too many people when the war ended. It looks like King Xuan of Qi...

Only Konoha has a record, and the bottom layer is more moist than before.

After the material and emotions are all improved, that kind of temperament begins to be different from other ninjas... In human terms, it is a sense of superiority.

This is still the case for the Great Hidden Village, let alone the small Hidden Village.

Everyone didn't feel that much when they were in Konoha before, but as soon as they left the village, the feeling began to change.

– For civilians, ninja's unhappiness is often fatal.

"I know. –

"When we came here just now, they had already told us. –

"But we are not here to do missions – although we will also help you repel Kusa-nin, provide funds for you, expand production scale, and build roads for convenient transportation. Even... let some people you fear never dare to come to your door. "

Makoto knew that it would be better to use coaxing at this time. But deception can be deceived for a while, but it is impossible to deceive the whole life after all.

Moreover, their time for this operation is limited, and it is impossible to really explain it here for a long time.

So, he chose the straight ball.

"I know it's confusing for you to say that. –

"However, it doesn't matter, we will use our own actions to prove our sincerity little by little – before that, let's take a look at this."

The old village head was full of doubts, Makoto did not continue to explain, but took out a shareholding contract.

The equity contract of Konoha United Fruit.

Although the company has not yet been formally established.

... ...

After thinking for a long time, the old village chief finally decided to invite Makoto and other foreigners to stay.

Even he, who is the most experienced in the village, can't understand what the United Fruit is.

But this did not prevent him from realizing that Makoto and others had come prepared, and they would definitely not be able to provoke these powerful ninjas.

That being the case...

Then take one step at a time.

Since Makoto said he would show his sincerity, they just waited.

Anyway, they had nothing but the bananas in front of them. As soon as Kusagakure came... the villagers knew very well that under their conditions, it was impossible to find a ninja to help them.

Things couldn't get any worse anyway.

After Makoto discussed this with the old village chief, Makoto took action immediately.

Since a long time ago, Makoto has been setting up a persona to the outside world – he will do what he says.

It's the same for everyone.

And this time, he will not miss the appointment.

The ninjas sprang into action immediately.

The members of the Hokage team separated, analyzed, and observed the surrounding environment from various angles, and purposefully reinforced the weak defenses.

There are not many Kusagakure strong, if Makoto really wants to deal with them, the best way is to wipe them out of the village.

But considering the future, Makoto decided to let the enemy in to fight.

There are two half-Kages of them here, plus a bunch of elite jounin, no matter how they fight, they will win. Let those villagers have a closer look at their strength, and it will also make getting along with them more pleasant afterward.

You use a knife to deal with enemies, and you need to use a knife to make friends.

Even if Makoto is full of sincerity.

Tsunade, on the other hand, walked around the village, checking the health of the villagers.

Giving free food and free medical care is always the best way to preach. Now everyone in Konoha is not here to preach, but it is always right to increase the favorability.

The loads of the few people were limited, and they didn't bring much food, but they could squeeze out a lot of medicine.

Tsunade took these medicines and visited door to door.

It is impossible for people who work all year round to be free from ailments.

Even if there is nothing wrong with the adults, there will be some problems with the children – these villagers don't even have pagoda candies.

In this place where there is a lack of medical treatment, everyone's choice is to die.

If you can't bear it, you will die.

As the current absolute t0-level medical ninja, what Tsunade has done can be said to be cured by medicine, and the villagers' eyes when they look at the ninjas have become much more friendly.

Medical ninjutsu is amazing.

Of course, the illness of some villagers has dragged on for too long... At least, Tsunade can relieve their pain.

Soon, this blond sister was welcomed by the whole village.

Who would refuse a beautiful big sister who has a good figure and good medical skills.

– Even in the world of women, good medical skills are the configuration of a heroine.

Makoto and Jiraiya also saw everything in their eyes, and their moods became much warmer.

However, Jiraiya still has some questions that he wants to ask Makoto.

About this Konoha United Fruit...

"Is this company run by Konoha? If that's the case..."

"Of course not, it's Land of Earth, Land of Wind, Land of Fire, Sunagakure, Iwagakure, plus us, operating together – of course, as the initiator and organizer of everything, we can earn less, But it has to be the decision maker."

Jiraiya also found that his worries were unnecessary.

He knew that as long as it was a project invested by Makoto, he would definitely make money. What he was worried about was that Makoto made a lot of money this time, which caused other people to covet him.

But Makoto's chessboard is far bigger than what he imagined.

What he thought was to drag the three major kingdoms and the three major Hidden Villages together – even including Iwa as an enemy!

"You bring Suna, I can understand, but why..."

"Because of its geographical location, the Land of Grass is located in the middle of the three major countries. As long as the bananas here can be sold in large quantities, then they can supply us and the Land of Wind. But it is also close to the Land of Earth...they will definitely make trouble, so, It's better to just pull them in as well."

Makoto looked at the equity certificate in front of him and said something he didn't understand at all.

"Although there are more people, the market of Land of Earth has been fully opened. We are naturally responsible for the trade security of our territory. When we go to Land of Earth, they are naturally responsible. The market is bigger, and we will naturally earn more – don't be afraid that the enemy will also make money, we are the ones in charge, and we will always earn more than them. –

"Secondly, it is to continue to add eye drops to the combination of Kumo and Iwa. –

"There is a saying called He Zong Lian Heng. Kumo doesn't trust us, why has it ever fully trusted Iwa? As long as they don't trust each other, it gives us room to operate."

T/N: 'He Zong Lian Heng' - during the Warring States Period, the major powers engaged in diplomatic and military struggles to win over the other countries

"Secondly, it is the binding of pillar industries to compress the living space of the same industry in the Land of Earth... This will certainly not be completely successful, but it can be used as a good wedge to break into the other party's trade system..."

Makoto didn't talk about the battle between the new ninjas and the Warring States ninjas with Jiraiya, but simply explained his views from the political and economic perspectives.

Makoto's action is definitely not for a certain goal, but a set of combined punches, completely invading the opponent from the economic level.

If all the goals can be fully achieved, Konoha may have completed the economic aggression against the enemy country in less than ten years, and actually controlled the small country or even the big country.

Who gave the Land of Fire its economic hegemony?

...Of course, the two major powers are not completely without capable people, and they will definitely stop it, but this is definitely a good development direction.

After all, he is his own teacher, and Makoto explained his ideas in a serious and specific way.

Makoto's problems are even more troublesome than S-level ninjutsu.

But Jiraiya can still feel it, Makoto should be right.

... This kind of theory is beyond the imagination of others. Makoto has surpassed other ninjas by so much in this step alone.

"It's good that you know what's in your mind, Makoto. I always feel old when I'm with you... By the way, Makoto, tell me what you're going to do with these villagers?"

"Of course, they are treated equally. They are the minority shareholders of our United Fruit. Aren't they good at growing bananas? Then let them grow them. We give money and they contribute. Everyone gets what they need and makes money together."

"But there are too few villagers here, even if you call other villages together... I hear what you mean, it seems that you want to fill the Land of Grass with bananas?"

Jiraiya didn't know the danger of only one pillar industry in a country, let alone the grand blueprint of a certain Hokage. He just simply felt that if all bananas were planted, the Land of Grass might not have enough manpower.

And if harvested in large quantities, it is also dangerous for workers.

"Of course, it's Edo Tensei. This place has been banana farmers for generations, that is to say, the ancestors of all people here are good at doing this. Put them all in filthy soil, and you can get through the most dangerous initial accumulation. –

"When everyone has money in the future, wouldn't it be good to use machinery or raise ninja beasts in large quantities to help harvest? In this way, manpower will also be liberated, and everyone will earn money. –

"You also know the effect of Edo Tensei. It is very difficult to become a real Edo Tensei master, but on the other hand, it is much easier for ordinary people in the Edo Tensei. We don't need these banana farmers who came out of the Edo Tensei to fight, we only need them to help and take care of them. Harvesting bananas is fine. Let Orochimaru modify it and it should do it – we don't even need them to have pain and fatigue. –

"Of course, I know that there is still a cost problem in batching Edo Tensei... But as long as we find a way, we can definitely solve it."

Makoto stated the plan seriously.

Only then did Jiraiya know why Makoto kept calling himself a moral vacuum.

"But that is their ancestor after all, this..."

"It is precisely because they are their ancestors that I am willing to help them for free... In this world, only our parents can treat us well, right? We are constantly working hard, don't we also want our children to live a better life without fighting..."

Jiraiya was at a loss for words for a while, and finally could only sigh.

"There is an ethical and moral issue here..."

"I know, so I will tell them in advance. Those who are willing are willing, and those who are not are okay. You can even give up this plan. All problems, as long as everyone works together, will be resolved..."

The two looked at each other and stopped this difficult question at the same time.

Is it the ancestors or the future?

No one has a perfect solution.

So the two chatted about ninjutsu again.

The night passed by in a hurry, and the two of them chatted deeply all night without feeling tired.

But at this time, Kusa-nins came.
