Uchiha's opinion

Chapter 207
"This represents the dawn of a new era!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said so.

When Atsushi Konoe arrived at the shogunate with the original edict written by the daimyo, Tokumitsu Uchiha had already ordered the withdrawal of the ninja army occupying the daimyo prefecture, and carefully arranged for the samurai of the former government army captured in the siege to maintain the city order.

"Peace lasts forever..."

Although Konoe Atsuji didn't quite understand what the "new era" Uchiha Tokumitsu referred to represented, but he still echoed it with a great face.

This round of negotiations allowed Konoe Atsushi to be promoted again, and the result of the negotiations was far above the bottom line preset by the daimyo officials, so he was immediately promoted to dainaga after returning to the land of water where the daimyo temporarily stationed in Hua. In this way, he is the most popular noble official among the daimyo's close ministers.

But in front of Uchiha Tokumitsu, Konoe Atsuji still maintains just the right amount of self-respect, neither showing hostility nor being too flattering.

"Peace is precious, but it is also war that promotes the development of the ninja world."

Uchiha Tokumitsu casually peddled the fallacies of his previous life: "The ancestors did their best to study weapons, combat techniques, and ninjutsu in order to be able to kill the same kind more efficiently, and the history of the ninja world was developed through killing. Even sublimated..."

"I didn't expect General Tokumitsu to have such a unique insight into the history of the ninja world..."

Konoe Toshi laughed dryly, feeling a little creepy, and quickly changed the subject: "But the Southern Islands are a secular place after all, how does General Deguang plan to govern them?"

In the inherent consciousness of the nobles, ninjas who specialize in killing skills are not good at dealing with common affairs. If ninjas are allowed to directly rule the common people, it will definitely cause people to suffer.

Even many ninjas today believe in this gratuitous fallacy.

"If General Deguang needs it, I can still recommend a few experienced political officials to you, and they will definitely help you manage the southern islands~"

Konoe Atsuji was very enthusiastic.

"As the saying goes, governing a big country is like cooking small fish, and the southern archipelago has just experienced a war, so you only need to pay lightly and have a rest with the people."

Uchiha Tokumitsu doesn't mind explaining his political philosophy to others, anyway, even the greedy nobles who play bright cards can't learn it.

"I only need to promulgate laws, maintain law and order, and punish villains. The rest is nothing more than collecting taxes on time."

"This... Sui Min has a stubborn temperament, General Deguang is better to be cautious..."

Konoe Atsuji understood Uchiha Tokumitsu's meaning, but he could only be perfunctory and didn't dare to comment on it.

"For the common people, as long as the dignitaries don't mess around, that's the best way of life. The shogunate will definitely satisfy them with such a simple request~"

Uchiha Tokumitsu's soul of Kenmasa started to burn again.

"If they pay enough taxes, I don't mind opening a parliament for them so that the citizens have more autonomy..."

Tokumitsu Uchiha talked more and more vigorously, and Atsushi Konoe became more and more terrified the more he listened.

If Uchiha Tokumitsu's set of governance ideas is indeed feasible, what is the use of the nobles? !
If ninjas can receive high taxes on their own, then the restraint that daimyo has on Ninja Village will no longer exist!

This is the big event that completely shakes the one country one village system!

"No wonder General Deguang said it was the arrival of a new era..."

Konoe Toshi laughed dryly twice, feeling as heavy as going to a grave.

Uchiha Tokumitsu also noticed that something was wrong with Atsushi Konoe, and the corners of his mouth curled up involuntarily.

These remarks are not purely nonsense about key affairs, but need to use this method to show the ministers and nobles of the country of water what their interests are, and warn them not to try to borrow chickens to lay eggs in the southern archipelago.

After sending Konoe Atsuji away, Sansho Hanzo also came to talk with Uchiha Tokumitsu.

"Mr. Hanzo is ready to go back now?"

After hearing Sanshoyu Hanzo's request, Uchiha Tokumitsu was a little surprised.

"Mr. Hanzo, are you dissatisfied with the employment remuneration? If so, we can talk~"

Although Uchiha Tokumitsu paid a huge amount of money to hire Sansho Hanzo, but in the Kirigakure Conquest, due to the unexpectedly smooth offensive of the Shogunate Ninja Army, Sansho Hanzo only had two mobile phone opportunities throughout the whole process.

In terms of work intensity and return benefits, Sanshoyu Hanzo undoubtedly makes a lot of money.

"Since the war is over, and I have been away from the village for several months, I should go back now..."

Sanshoyu Hanzo said sincerely: "However, in terms of facts, General Tokumitsu's employment of Urenin to join the war really gave Urenin Village a chance to turn around..."

In addition to the mercenary remuneration, the [-]% of the spoils that Uchiha Tokumitsu allowed Yuren to leave by himself also made Yuren who participated in the war earn a lot of money.

Coupled with the free change of ninja equipment, Urenin has at least a new look in appearance, and he no longer has the feeling of wandering soldiers in the past.

"That's true, Mr. Hanzo really needs to go back and rebuild Urenin Village..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu also understood the meaning of Sansho Hanzo: "If there is a need for supplies, you can directly tell the Fire Gate Commander of the Northwest Frontier Defense Force that the Uchiha clan can help Urenin to purchase."

"That's the best way to go."

Sansho Hanzo also agreed.

With the Second Ninja World War, the Uchiha Clan conquered all over the world, coupled with the smuggling network, the Uchiha Clan’s forces gradually covered all parts of the Ninja World, at least buying all kinds of materials is still easier than the besieged Uchiha Clan Many.

"The Rain Ninja Army is also planning to withdraw?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu asked immediately.

If more than 1000 Urenin returned to the village all at once, then the shogunate's ninja army might be empty.

"This time I plan to bring 300 people back to the village, what do you think?"

Although Sanshoyu Hanzo also intends to bring back the ninjas under his command so as not to be assimilated by the shogunate, he is still reluctant to give up this rare opportunity to earn foreign exchange.

"no problem."

Uchiha Tokumitsu immediately agreed, "Then I will arrange personnel to settle the military expenses!"

……

After sending Sanshoyu Hanzo away, Tokumitsu Uchiha slowly thought about his next plan.

As the saying goes, the mountain will fall if you rely on others, and everyone will run if you rely on others. The most reliable ones are your own people.

But the members of the Uchiha clan did not pop out from the cracks of the rocks, and it takes time to grow up to become a talent.

What Tokumitsu Uchiha lacks the most is time.

The growth of family power takes time, the integration of various factions under his command also takes time, and the increase of personal strength also takes time.

And the most critical among them is naturally the strength of the individual.

Especially after the battle with Mizukage, Uchiha Tokumitsu has a deep understanding.

Although it seemed easy after a battle, if it weren't for the Sanshoyu Hanzo as the main anti-lightning top, Uchiha Tokumitsu would not have been able to trap Mizukage so easily.

But this battle also reminded Uchiha Tokumitsu that it is not advisable to indulge in scheming. After all, the ninja world is a cruel world that speaks with force. Scheming may win for a while, but it cannot win forever.

In particular, Uchiha Madara, who controls the three generations of Mizukage, is a notoriously moody person. He might turn his face and turn the table one day. This is the most deadly.

"By the way, it's almost the harvest season..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu touched the seal scroll that he carried with him.

One of the scrolls sealed a precious Bai Jue corpse...

In addition to spending so much money on the Uzumaki Research Institute and Orochimaru's laboratory, it's time for them to show some results in return.

Tokumitsu Uchiha's requirements are not high, as long as he can refine white blood cells to improve his physical fitness, as for the legendary Mutun... if you get it, you will be lucky, if you lose it, you will die, there is no need to force it.

Besides, just relying on Bai Jue's corpse can't activate Mu Dun.

"Wood Dun... Danzo... Orochimaru..."

Thinking of Mudun, Uchiha Tokumitsu immediately thought of the so-called "Mudun Restart Plan"...

"I have to find a time to go back to the village to blackmail Orochimaru, maybe I can explode gold coins..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu summoned the attendant ninja and asked him to convene a meeting of the ministries in charge.

Before returning to the village, it is still necessary to arrange the defense zones of each department.

……

"Thanks to the bravery of the lords, the shogunate was able to seize the territory of the southern archipelago!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said at the Shogunate Military Affairs Conference.

All the Jonin in charge held their heads high and held their chests high with pride.

"The southern archipelago will be the pure land of ninjas, and also the foundation for the shogunate's continued development and growth in the future!"

In the current jurisdiction of the Tokumitsu Shogunate, the eight counties in the eastern part of the Land of Fire can only exert influence. The old land of the Url Country is the headquarters of the Shogunate, and the Land of Waves is only a logistics base. Only the southern archipelago of the Land of Water has sufficient population and resource.

Population and resources represent sustainable money income.

"In recognition of the military exploits of the various ministries, the appointment is as follows—"

"The southern archipelago is divided into three major defense areas, each of which will be guarded by the Guiyi tribe of the Yiyi column!"

"I will die for my lord!"

Onito, Minazuki, Kaguya and other former Kirigakure ninjas immediately got up and knelt on one knee.

"The southern archipelago is the foundation of the shogunate, and you are familiar with waterway transportation. You also hope that the lords will work together to guard the territory."

Uchiha Tokumitsu said softly.

Afterwards, Uzumaki Xianghui was summoned, and each of them was issued a defense token.

As the saying goes, those who have a lot of property have perseverance, and the divided defense zone is not only a reward for the ninjas of the three races, but also a cage to restrain them.

Even if Kirigakure tried to instigate rebellion in the future, they would not be able to give Uchiha Tokumitsu such a generous overweight.

"The governance of the Southern Islands is assigned by each ninja family, and all positions are arranged according to the talents of the personnel appointed by each family."

This is the reward for participating in the war given to all the attached ninja clans, and it is also one of the means to check and balance the three clans of Kirigakure Guiyi.

"Follow orders!"

Kurama, Shiranui and other ninjas who are attached to the ninja clan stood up to respond one after another.

"As for taxes, the United Fisheries Company is responsible for the management, and the salaries of the garrison ninjas and government ninjas are also directly calculated from the taxes."

Uchiha Tokumitsu turned his gaze to Shuhiro Hinata who was sitting in the back row, "Joinhiro Xiuhiro, how about you take care of this for now?"

"what?!"

Hiroshi Hinata was stunned.

He never thought that, as a subfamily of Hinata who was controlled by others, he would be entrusted with such an important task one day, and he was a little at a loss for a while.

"Master Deguang...I..."

He didn't know what to say.

"Relax, it's okay, just do it with your heart, and I will also appoint another subordinate to assist you."

Uchiha Tokumitsu said softly.

"...As ordered!"

Hinata Shuhiro tried to calm down his mood, and thanked Uchiha Tokumitsu with an impeccable standard chest salute.

The reason why Hyuga Shuhiro was appointed as the head of the taxation agency is also because Uchiha Tokumitsu still has some ideas about the Hyuga clan; and this move is equivalent to buying a horse bone with a thousand dollars. It's also good.

What's more, the tax authorities and the officials sent by Uchiha Tokumitsu to handle general affairs, the meaning of Shuhiro Hinata's reign is more to act as a mascot and weather vane, so there is no need to worry about any troubles.

As a result, the Southern Islands control system controlled by the shogunate was basically released, and the three major power organs of the military, government affairs, and taxation were separated from each other and checked and balanced each other.

As for the Uchiha clan and the Uzumaki clan, the two clans are the foundation of Uchiha Tokumitsu, and there is no need to award rewards on such occasions, so as not to arouse the jealousy of others.

"...The arrangements for the southern archipelago of the shogunate are basically as above. All ministries are requested to fulfill their duties and make further contributions!"

"I will die for my lord!"

Masahiko Ghost Lamp was the first to stand up and echoed loudly.

"I will die for my lord!"

All the upper ninja stood up with a loud bang, offering their loyalty to Uchiha Tokumitsu.

Next, you need to go back to Konoha to continue fighting...

Uchiha Tokumitsu's eyes dimmed.
