I have a bunch of relatives who want to be Hokage

The face is enough.

At this point, Iwagakure will not leave Konoha Hidden Village with anything to blame.

After all, Iwagakure is not Kumogakure, and Iwagakure Village is still very particular about this aspect.

When the two villages ceased fighting during the Third War, Iwagakure Village also sent Huangtu, the son of the Tsuchikage, to Konoha to meet and sign the contract, and the etiquette was also in place.

As old-school ninjas of the same era and old rivals, Onoki still respected Sarutobi Hiruzen.

Sitting in the Tsuchikage office, listening to the bustle coming from outside, Onoki was thinking about how to talk to Konoha.

Yellow Flash became Hokage. Onoki recognized Yellow Flash's strength, but he still unceremoniously tested the opponent's quality as Hokage according to the tradition of the ninja world.

The results of the test were not good. Konoha Hidden Village became more united, but the Flying Thunder God Technique has not disappeared from the battlefield, and the new user is Uchiha.

On the other hand, in the Iwa Ninja Army, an entire unit was blown up, the elite demolition force completely lost its combat effectiveness, and their disciple and granddaughter were also taken away.

Now that they have been sent back, Konoha Hidden Village is quite particular. I looked at them before and found that the two little guys were full of energy and did not look like they were suffering.

Otherwise, he and Konoha would talk about it, and at worst, they would make another move, and then they would flee first and see who felt more distressed.

"Dong dong..." The door knocked.

"Come in." Ohnoki said, then stood up and picked up the Tsuchikage hat on the table.

"Lord Tsuchikage, the Konoha delegation is about to enter the building."

"Very good, take them directly to the conference room." Onoki put on his hat and said with great force, "I'll see what the White Ghost boy plans to do today."

He is very confident. After all, negotiations are all about talking, Uchiha? Pull it down.

Chapter 16 Is this Uchiha?

After entering Iwagakure Village, Uchiha Shingen officially handed over Deidara and Kurotsuchi to Yellow Earth.

Times have changed, and Konoha does not need to use these two brats as bargaining chips. They are just used to gain favor.

At this stage, all the diplomacy of Konoha Hidden Village is based on one purpose - to make good friends with each village without harming Konoha's interests, and to put pressure on Kumogakure and make them surrender.

Uchiha Shingen felt that this wave of goodwill had finally come to him, and Huangtu's expression softened a lot. On the way to the Tsuchikage Building with everyone, he became quieter and began to talk to Uchiha Shingen.

After entering the Tsuchikage Building, Uchiha Shingen was sure of one thing.

Among the five major ninja villages, the Hokage Building is definitely the smallest.

Loess was a very conscientious guide. After receiving the Tsuchikage's order conveyed by the secretarial staff, he led the Konoha delegation directly to the conference hall.

Entering the conference hall, you can see Ohnoki and other Iwagakure senior officials sitting upright at first glance, but Uchiha Shingen doesn't recognize them at all.

He knew Onoki and Loess.

The Konoha envoys took their seats one after another, and Huangtu also sat next to Onoki.

The pigeons from Konoha Hidden Village are all in high spirits and their "taste" is wide open.

It's been a long time since I've seen Ying who was so disciplined. They felt so friendly and felt that they would be able to perform at a super level today.

After the two groups sat down, Onoki didn't speak immediately, nor did Uchiha Shingen. The two people in charge didn't speak, and the others could only stare.

Uchiha Shingen looked at the stubborn look of the fat man in front of him, and felt that he could not let the other party get angry again, so he decided to start a fight.

"Lord Tsuchikage." Uchiha Shingen spoke, and the people on both sides suddenly became energetic.

Then they heard a string of words coming directly from Uchiha Shingen.

"Konoha and Iwagakure have established diplomatic relations for decades and have been working hard to move forward. The traditional friendly relationship between the two villages has become stronger over time."

Um? What is this Konoha White Ghost talking about?

"Under the joint leadership of the two villages, the political mutual trust between the two sides has been unbreakable and the cooperation has been fruitful, especially in various fields of maintaining regional peace. Some time ago, after the turmoil in the Kingdom of Rain, the two villages Helping each other and responding hand in hand demonstrate the brotherhood of staying together through thick and thin!”

After finishing this long list in one breath, facing the dumbfounded expressions of a group of high-ranking Iwa ninjas across from him, Uchiha Shingen waved his hand and shouted loudly: "Lord Tsuchikage, we need to go further to establish mutual trust and win-win cooperation. comprehensive strategic partnership!"

The whole place was silent and no one reacted.

Iwagakure didn't react, and the pigeons in Konoha were stunned.

Ohnoki's original teasing smile has long since disappeared, and his head is now a little buzzing.

Watching and helping each other? Coping with each other? through thick and thin? Brotherhood?

What is this?

trust each other? win-win?

Are you talking human language?

After going over all what Uchiha Shingen said just now in his mind, Ohnoki was shocked.

What the hell is this Uchiha? This is what Uchiha looks like now! ?

Huang Tu was also shocked.

The look he looked at Uchiha Shingen was fiery!

turn out to be! His loess confidant is actually here! ?

The old pigeons were not only shocked, they also suddenly became enlightened.

It turns out that this is how you can bullshit!

So sloppy! I originally thought that the Uchiha clan would only know how to play Ola Ola, and would slam the table if they disagreed with each other. They were already prepared to save the situation.

What a rescue! Much more skilled than them!

"Uchiha Shingen, are you showing off your strength?" Onoki suddenly snorted coldly, "How many ninjas have died in Iwagakure and Konoha? There are so many blood debts, where is the 'help' coming from?"

"How could it not be?" Uchiha Shingen said, "Let's not talk about it remotely, let's just say that during the Third Ninja War, Iwagakure and Konohagakure stopped this unjust war in Kumogakure Village and killed the bandit leader. The Third Raikage, this is a reflection of the deep friendship that has existed between the two sides for decades since the establishment of diplomatic relations.”

Everyone suddenly realized that Raikage was the bandit leader!

"What the Iwa Ninja Army does has nothing to do with Konoha." Onoki said that he did not accept this, but his tone was not so tough.

After all, as a Tsuchikage, he still had to face it.

"Lord Tsuchikage is so humble. This is why I said that both parties should establish a comprehensive strategic partnership of mutual trust and win-win cooperation."

Uchiha Shingen kept smiling and continued.

"You think, you and Hokage-sama are thousands of miles apart, but you have such a tacit understanding in fighting Kumogakure together. Isn't this mutual trust? Shouldn't we pass on this spirit of sincerity, friendship and mutual support from generation to generation? ?"

The senior officials of Yanyin Village couldn't help but nodded subconsciously.

Then they realized that the other party's words were too smooth, mainly because the wording was novel and a bit superior, and they unconsciously took it in.

"Don't mess around." Ohnoki knew that he couldn't be beaten passively and had to fight back. "In this war, Konoha caused heavy losses to Iwagakure. We acted to maintain the peace of the Land of Rain. It's you Konoha who are arrogant. The scale of the war has been expanded. Although the two sides have ceased war, Iwagakure deserves compensation."

"Sigh... Lord Tsuchikage." Uchiha Shingen suddenly shook his head, his tone seemed to be disappointed, "The situation is too small."

Onoki: "???"

This Uchiha brat really deserves a beating!

Where am I young? I'm so old, okay? ? Everyone in the village says that I am the most awesome Tsuchikage!

"How do you say this?" He asked, holding back his anger.

"The Fire Country Traders Association is willing to provide public products of various maturities to the Earth Country to support the construction and operation of the Earth Country's infrastructure. It can also assist the Earth Country's Daming Palace to issue special bonds."

"Huh?" Ohnoki was surprised.

He had also heard about the Traders Association and knew that it controlled a large amount of resources. However, this association only conducted business in the Country of Fire and its allies.

He, Onoki, still knows a little about business and has a good understanding of this association.

Really rich!

It seems Konoha is very sincere!

"It seems that the Fourth Hokage is very sincere." Onoki smiled.

I have to laugh, the stalls in Iwagakure Village are big, and the stalls in Earth Country are even bigger. Money is needed everywhere, but Earth Country is really short of money. The budget of the Daming Palace in Earth Country is cut again and again every year. Everyone knows that cutting off 30% of the plan first is an unspoken rule that everyone knows.

Uchiha Shingen also smiled.

There is too much money on the market in the Country of Fire, mainly because those nobles are so rich. God knows how much wealth they saved in the past. Not only has the market interest rate been reduced, it is already close to the expected income of those nobles. Bottom line, the cost of living among civilians has also increased.

This is not good, and you have to release some of your money quickly, but such an amount requires a market that is large enough and stable enough to be able to absorb it.

The Kingdom of Water cannot do this because the Kingdom of Water itself does not lack wealth. They are in the same situation as the Kingdom of Fire. What they lack is investable objects.

The land of thunder? Pull it down! This country lacks the most basic spirit of contract from top to bottom, and is definitely breaching the contract and acting like a fool.

The Country of Wind is too poor. It lacks everything except minerals. If you have too much money, you can't get it back. Uchiha Shingen wants to improve the efficiency of the use of funds, not to go out of his way to lose money.

After much deliberation, only the Kingdom of Earth is the most suitable.

The financial system of the Kingdom of Earth is more primitive and backward than that of the original Kingdom of Fire. How can I live with my conscience without taking action? When Iwagakure gradually discovers that something is wrong, it is time to pull Iwagakure into trouble.

fight? Iwagakure Village will be tied to Konoha by then, and he will fight whoever hits Konoha.

Seeing Ohnoki's expression, knowing that this damn fat man's heart was moved, Uchiha Shingen smiled even more cordially.

Um? Why don't the pigeons speak?

Uchiha Shingen glanced out of the corner of his eye and saw these birdmen writing frantically.

I don't know what they are writing about.

Ignore them, as long as they don't cause trouble.

Chapter 17 The older I get, the more I love learning.

The first round of negotiations between Konoha and Iwagakure ended hastily.

It’s not that the talks were bad, but the talks were too good.

The senior officials of Yanyin Village felt that they had never seen such an outrageous thing in their entire lives.

It was obviously two groups of people negotiating, but the result was that the Konoha White Ghost was the only one talking endlessly.

What confused them the most was that the Konoha White Ghost almost jumped on the table and pointed at their noses and said, "Is this all you have to offer? I have a lot of fucking money, please give me more!"

The senior officials of Iwagakure Village didn't even know what expressions they should put on.

anger? People want to invest, and the amount is so large that it’s scary.

Happy? How happy are you that you are being trained like a grandson from beginning to end? Isn't this a shame?

So, they were numb, neither happy nor unhappy.

I really don’t know what expression I should make.

Gradually, Onoki became expressionless.

In the end, the people on Iwagakure's side couldn't even get in the conversation. They felt that they had something to say, but they just didn't know what to say. Uchiha Shingen didn't stop talking, and he caught them and bombarded them, making them faint. Huhu, in the end, there is really no other way. I can only say that we will talk about it today and let’s think about it.

humiliation! So humiliating!

What a shame!

They came here with the intention of confusing right and wrong and maliciously extorting! ?

What the hell is this? Even though you've been scolded, you can't be angry, you still have to laugh!

ah! Really angry!

Seeing the Konoha White Ghost leading the delegation to the hotel to rest arrogantly, the senior officials of Iwagakure Village, headed by Onoki, were at a loss and holding their breath.

But there is also excitement.

Because Konoha White Ghost also proposed at the meeting that any loan to the Land of Earth must be guaranteed by Iwagakure Village. For projects that Iwagakure Village does not approve of, the Earth Daimyo’s words will not work, and the association will not even have a copper plate. Will vote.

If this is implemented, wouldn't Yanyin Village become the fragrant steamed bun of the Earth Kingdom? Not to mention that the guarantee is chargeable, but there are a lot of favors involved.

Thinking better, Iwagakure Village also has allies. Can it be used to win allies?

It's just a matter of going through a few more procedures to transfer the money. Konoha won't care about it anyway, as long as they can repay it on time. If they can't pay it back, according to Konoha White Ghost, they can still borrow new money and repay it conditionally. The old one may be replaced with special debt funds from Daming Mansion.

Once exchanged, the creditor will be the local daimyo.

That's not easy to discuss.

Using this analogy again, when the Dodaimyo engages in gold-dollar diplomacy with their allies, does he also have to use the relationship between Iwagakure Village?
