From ninja to daimyo

Chapter 178
The Land of Thunder, Bird City, is already under a bright moon, but Bird City is still bright, and a grand banquet is being held.

There are countless nobles and rich merchants living in the capital city of the Kingdom of Thunder. Banquets are an important way of life for them. Basically every two or three days, there will be a large banquet.

Among them, the one with the most number of events is naturally the daimyo of the Land of Thunder.

In the banquet hall, many aristocrats were laughing and laughing, drinking and drinking, dancing girls and waiters shuttled through the banquet like swallows.

At the top of the banquet hall is a veil. On the soft couch behind the veil, the daimyo of Lei Zhiguo closed his eyes. He is not young anymore, and his energy is not as good as before. Will feel sleepy, but he likes the atmosphere, his palms are flapping with the music.

At this time, a waiter came to daimyo's side, whispered a few words, daimyo frowned, got up and left with the waiter.

Only a few people noticed Daimyo's departure, but no matter those who noticed or those who didn't, the banquet hall still cheered.

The daimyo came to a study room inside Asuka City, and the minister Furuya Shunyuan was already waiting there.

"Your Excellency, a letter from the third generation of Raikage of Yunyin Village."

When the daimyo opened the letter, his face was calm at first, then gradually became ugly, and finally only complex was left.

Passing the letter to Furuya Shunyuan, the daimyo said, "Look at it."

Furuya Shunyuan received the letter written by the third Raikage, and after reading it, he was also amazed.

"I never thought that Yunyin Village would be dealt with in this way."

In the letter, the third generation of Raikage mentioned that during the joint Chunin exam, the two discussed about the fact that there were behind-the-scenes forces trying to integrate the weapon industry of the Kingdom of Thunder.

Said that it has been checked. There are a total of 7 controlled chambers of commerce in the capital of the Kingdom of Thunder and the surrounding area, including the supporting blacksmith shop, etc., all of which are controlled and taken over by Yunyin.
At the same time, they also formally discussed with the daimyo about the timing of the two marriages.

Furuya Shunyuan stroked his beard, pondered and said: "I never imagined that Yunyin would use this method to deal with it."

To be honest, even if the seven chambers of commerce are empty shells, the total assets under their names are not a small number. From the initial perception, to the subsequent suspicion, and the temptation in the joint Chunin exam, it is all within his understanding. within range.

But Yun Yin's move now is a bit unexpected.

"My lord, what do you think they mean by this?"

The daimyo of Lei Zhiguo looked ugly, sighed after a long while and said: "They want to tell me my strength. I have changed hands."

Furuya Shunyuan didn't answer the call.

Everyone is well aware of the situation of these seven chambers of commerce. Even though there was some uncertainty before, after this letter, it can be said that it is very clear.

In the past, Ninja Village begged the daimyo to increase their budget and seek more financial support. How can Ninja Village send money to the daimyo?
This is also the means by which the daimyos of various countries control Ninja Village. The development of Ninja Village is not enough to rely on the village's small task money, and in fact it is very dependent on the support of the daimyos of various countries.

If the daimyo's hand is a little tighter, Ninja Village will feel more uncomfortable, and if it is a little wider, Ninja Village will be more aggressive.

However, the real power of this method lies in loosening first and then tightening.

First increase support, let Ninja Village become ambitious, even draw a sword and look around, and then find excuses to reduce support.

It's like giving a loan to a factory. When you expand production, buy a lot of new equipment, and prepare to do a big job, your funds are suddenly tightened.

At this time, Ninja Village has already spread its stalls, and all parties need to spend money. They are not reconciled to the disappearance of the previous good situation. Ninjas who are not involved in production can only find ways to solve the problem from the outside.

The turmoil in the ninja world has a lot to do with the hand behind it.

However, over the past few years, the daimyo of the land of thunder has gradually felt powerless. Yunyin won the war at a very small cost, which led to Yunyin obtaining a large amount of tangible and intangible resources for expansion, and no longer being constrained by the daimyo. .

Even because of the minimal loss, Yun Yin didn't need time to "repair".

This is far beyond the daimyo's script. Even if it is a victory, it should be a tragic victory. For example, Konoha during World War I.

After the Second Ninja World War, the daimyo of the land of thunder clearly felt that Yun Yin was like a wild horse, regardless of his influence or strength, the daimyo of the land of thunder, who had seen flowers in the fog, had a kind of ever-changing feeling Feel.

Correspondingly, the daimyo's influence on Yun Yin plummeted.

Coupled with the suspicion that Yunyin had a new source of funds, this made Lei Zhiguo's daimyo unacceptable and even restless.

The reason why he traveled thousands of miles to the Land of Rain to watch the joint Chunin exam was because he wanted to estimate Yunyin's future.

After all, he is old.

When I leave, I have to pick one of the stupid sons below me to face the fully grown Yeyue Dana. At that time, Yun Yin will have more geniuses, stronger power, and more Big ambition.

The marriage contract back then made him even more troublesome. Originally, he was just an unfavored daughter who married a blood-successor of the Yeyue clan. As a result, this blood-successor transformed into the number one genius in the ninja world.
Getting married at this time is not only complicated, but also a bit weaker. (Note)
Furuya Shunyuan broke the silence in the study and said, "My lord, what do we do with these seven stores and their assets?"

The daimyo of Thunder Country wanted to say, "Who are you underestimating!"

But in the end, he calmed down and said, "Send someone to receive it..."

I have to admit that this is a lot of wealth, and the daimyo can't keep it out, but it is also a declaration from Yunyin, declaring that the "ninja village-daimyo" relationship that the Kingdom of Thunder has maintained for 43 years will soon change.

It's just that the daimyo is not willing to do so.

The more he thought about it, the more angry he became, and the daimyo of the country of thunder smashed the vase in the study on the ground.

With a "bang", the exquisite vase was smashed to pieces.

Furuya Shunyuan hurried forward to comfort him.

Unexpectedly, after a while, there was a knock on the door of the study, and a voice outside said, "Your Excellency, may I ask if there is any danger?"

It is Leiyun Jiushi.

In an instant, daimyo's face turned ashen, but he had been in power for many years, and he still had some skills in nourishing his energy, so he said calmly, "it's okay, step back."

After waiting for a long time, after confirming that there was no one outside the door, Daming turned to Furuya Shunyuan and said in a low voice, "Leiyun Jiushi must be removed!"

Furuya Shunyuan Quanjie said: "Remove all of them directly. The impact is not good. How about we gradually replace the Thunder Cloud Nine Warriors with our own people, so that the Thunder Cloud Nine Warriors can become our own strength. There are many ninjas in the ninja world who are not bad. , it is not necessarily the person who is offering to Yunyin, the so-called Leiyun Nine Scholars is just a title."

The daimyo nodded with an ugly face: "This matter is entrusted to you, it must be fast!"

Furuya Shunyuan said: "Don't worry, daimyo."

　Here is an example to help you understand.

　　I know that there is a big difference between a daimyo and an emperor, this is just an example.

　　For example, under the emperor, there is a general of soldiers and horses, who is awesome, invincible, powerful, and raises his own soldiers.

　　Do you think the emperor would be willing to marry his daughter to the general or someone from the general's family at this time?
　　This will be interpreted by the outside world as an act similar to showing weakness.

　　Many of the so-called power and prestige are reflected in such things that seem to have no actual interests.
