"It’s normal for other villages to react this way. After all, their attention has been drawn to the Akatsuki organization."
"By the way, where’s the money?"
Tsunade rubbed her thumb and index finger together, clearly asking for the money that belonged to the village.
"Here you go."
Yan took out a scroll and tossed it to Tsunade.
The 200 million ryo from selling the information was all in the scroll.
With this money, the village’s financial pressure could be greatly relieved. Two hundred million could do a lot.
"Great."
Holding the scroll, Tsunade’s eyes sparkled as she began to plan how to spend the money.
Yan looked at the scroll now tucked into Tsunade’s chest and suddenly wished he could trade places with it.
"Yan, have so tea. You’ve worked hard."
Shizune cheerfully brought over the tea.
As the Hokage’s secretary, she knew very well how much the village was lacking money.
Fortunately, many expenses had already been cut, and with Tsunade pleading poverty, the Daimyo’s office had allocated more funds.
But it still wasn’t enough to fill the huge gap left by the Third Hokage.
The Shimura and Sarutobi families... these families consud too many of the village’s resources.
This wasn’t sothing that could be fixed quickly.
So shaless families were bad enough, but there was also a root that burned through money, which was even worse.
Tsunade had been so stressed about money that she had lost quite a bit of hair recently.
"Thanks."
With a smile, Yan took the teacup from Shizune and joked:
"You’ve beco even more beautiful since I last saw you."
Shizune was stunned for a mont, then her face quickly turned red. She waved her hand and said:
"No way, I’ve always been like this."
As she spoke, she raised her hand to fan her face.
Imrsed in thoughts of money, Tsunade ca back to her senses, placed the scroll on the table, and couldn’t help but complain:
"I say, that’s enough. You just got back and you’re already flirting with my secretary. Why don’t you take along too?"
Tsunade originally wanted to scold Yan and tell him to behave and stop teasing Shizune.
Can’t you see that Shizune already has a crush on you?
"Really?"
Tsunade never expected Yan to be so eager, looking very interested.
Tsunade clenched her fists, and the veins on her forehead started to bulge.
Shizune glanced at Yan, then at the furious Tsunade, and instinctively shrank back, laughing awkwardly.
"Stop that, do you think I’m still a young girl?"
Tsunade glared at Yan angrily, then sat down with her arms crossed, gritting her teeth:
"Keep your eyes in check. Also, I’ve mostly sorted out the tutoring class. You can go back and choose the Uchiha people yourself, but don’t pick randomly."
"And, does the Uchiha’s investnt in building the comrcial street still stand?"
Yan wasn’t wrong. Finding things for the village’s ninjas to do could indirectly increase the village’s inco. This wasn’t a joke, it was true, as it could bring in a lot of money.
It could also help many ninjas earn money, saving the village a lot of trouble.
"Yes, but the Uchiha want half of the new comrcial street’s shops."
"These shops must permanently belong to the Uchiha, and the village can’t take them back without a contract."
The Uchiha have money, but it’s not like it grows on trees.
Investing in building a new comrcial street is a good investnt, and the Uchiha are happy to put money into it.
But the village must ensure the Uchiha’s interests.
"At most, one-third."
The land belongs to the village, and the Uchiha are just providing the money. Asking for half the shops is too much, isn’t it?
"No way."
Yan firmly refused. Half the share was a great deal, one-third wasn’t worth it. Yan wouldn’t cheat his own clan.
"We must get half. We can also bring in other clans.
There are many clans with money but nowhere to spend it.
Like the Hyuga, Ino-Shika-Cho. If they all join in, it will greatly ease the funding.
As for the shares, everyone can split the fifty percent based on their investnt."
"Half the share, no less."
The clans invest money and get a long-term inco project, while the village just needs to provide so land and shift focus a bit to get a new comrcial area. It’s a win-win.
It looks like the village is getting a great deal, but it’s not. To drive the new comrcial area, the village needs to make many arrangents.
The clans invest money and get shops, they won’t lose out. It’s a long-term benefit.
You can’t get everything at once, and being greedy won’t end well. You need to bring people in to share the benefits and risks.
Everyone benefits, that’s the best outco.
Being greedy makes you a target.
Yan thought they could bring in the Hyuga, Ino-Shika-Cho, and other clans.
As for the Sarutobi and Shimura clans, they can stay out of it!
It’s already kind not to make them give back what they took, and they still want a piece of the new pie?
Dream on.
The comrcial developnt in Kumogakure Village made Yan realize that Konohagakure could actually support several comrcial areas.
After all, Konohagakure’s location and large population base an that developing comrce wouldn’t lose to Kumogakure Village.
"Alright!"
Although they lost half the share, without the clans’ investnt, the village couldn’t afford to build a new comrcial area. It’s a win-win.
"I’ll plan it out with Shizune and get back to you when the docunts are ready."
"Okay, I’ll go rest now."
Yan got up to leave.
When he reached the door, Tsunade suddenly asked:
"Utatane Koharu’s death..."
"It has nothing to do with . I didn’t expect her skills to decline so much. By the ti I got there to help, it was too late."
"That’s good. You go rest, I’ll handle the other issues."
You could say Yan didn’t do anything in this matter.
At most, he just talked a bit more with Biwa Juzo!
Utatane Koharu’s death was just bad luck on her part, no one else to bla.
Her death gave the Third Hokage quite a shock.
He had been resting in retirent, but despite Tsunade’s objections, he took Anbu and started a spy investigation, actually catching a few spies from the dical and logistics departnts.
It turned out, none of this had anything to do with Yan.
The spies didn’t expect the supplies they were transporting to be escorted by Yan and his team.
And the Akatsuki organization didn’t expect a routine supply raid to turn into a hornet’s nest.
