Under the tutelage of Orochimaru, Naruto's evil scientist

"Everyone, His Majesty's birthday is coming soon. This time, we in Iron Coin City cannot do nothing like last time! No matter what, we have to raise a large sum of money to present to His Majesty. What suggestions do you have?"

In the simple room, the man was sitting on the table, looking at his subordinates sitting around him.

"Boss, it's not that we don't want to make money, the problem is that our tax items are already so thick, and we really can't squeeze any more money out of those cheap bones." A man helplessly patted the pile of documents on the table.

Breathing tax, city entry tax, peace tax, sunlight tax, moonlight tax, sleeping tax, they thought of almost all the taxes they could think of, listed them all and implemented them all.

If it weren't for His Majesty's prohibition on collecting taxes in advance, they would even have thought of collecting the taxes hundreds of years later.

The man's eyes instantly became dangerous. Of course he knew that there were many tax items and everything he could think of was subject to tax, but what did this have to do with him?
Since his superiors pressure him for money, he has no choice but to put pressure on his subordinates.

"I think it would be better to add a new lottery mechanism. Those who draw odd numbers can only hop out of the door on one leg, and those who draw even numbers can use both legs to go out. This way we can definitely make some money." A woman stood up. She had noticed the dangerous look in the man's eyes.

No, we must find a way to squeeze out another ounce of oil from those cheap bones.

Otherwise it will become their 'voluntary' fundraising again.

She paid money with great difficulty to become an official, not to continue paying money. She wanted to make money ruthlessly and recoup her costs.

"Lend usury to those lowly people, use their souls as collateral, pay out 50% and return 150%. If they can't pay it back, squeeze their souls into soul currency!" Another man with a pointed chin and monkey face also came up with an idea.

With these two people taking the lead, others immediately came up with some ideas of their own.

The whole room suddenly became as lively as a vegetable market.

"Heh." A sneer caught the man's attention. He squinted his eyes and looked over. Then he saw a man with black hair and black eyes sitting on a chair, playing with his fingernails out of boredom. The sneer just now came from him.

"Otsutsuki Isshiki! The Lord is still working hard for His Majesty's birthday, and this is how you repay the Lord? Don't forget your loyalty!" A person sitting next to the other person immediately shouted loudly, his expression and eyes were so angry, as if the person sitting in the first seat was his biological father.

"If we continue like this, our Iron Coin City will be laughed at by other cities again." Otsutsuki Isshiki sat up straight.

The man looked deeply at Otsutsuki Isshiki.

"Oh? Your name is Otsutsuki Isshiki? Then what can you do?" The man asked with a smile looking at Otsutsuki Isshiki. As he spoke, the room instantly became quiet.

"Minister Griffin, it is obvious that there is nothing much to be gained from those lowly people. If we want to satisfy His Majesty, we can only start with those nobles and wealthy businessmen." Otsutsuki Isshiki said respectfully.

The room was silent for a few seconds, and then there was suppressed laughter. Those who were still resentful of Otsutsuki Isshiki's sneer looked at Otsutsuki Isshiki as if he were a fool.

Nobles and wealthy businessmen?
Everyone knows that these two groups are rich, but why didn't anyone at the scene think of targeting these two groups of people when they came up with ideas? That's because they didn't dare.

The nobles and wealthy businessmen have close relations, forming a huge network of interests. Moreover, these nobles also keep extraordinary people. Even when the city lord faces these people, he has to use a negotiating tone!
And this idiot actually wanted to make money from them?
There was also some disappointment in Griffin's eyes. He had thought that he would be a powerful person, but he turned out to be just an ignorant fool.

"As long as we succeed, His Majesty will praise us!" Otsutsuki Isshiki said passionately. Griffin scratched his ears. This was the truth. As long as he could make the city lord proud, then he, Griffin, would not be unable to make further progress in the future.

But the question is, where does the money come from?
"If you can get the money, the position of deputy minister will be yours, and I will also help you prepare a promotion ceremony." Griffin said softly. Although he was not very optimistic about Otsutsuki Isshiki's idea, he had no choice now and could only try his luck.

However, Griffin will not put all his hopes on Tsutsuki Isshiki. If there is no other option, he can only ask his subordinates to donate money voluntarily.

As for whether Otsutsuki Isshiki could survive, Griffin really didn't care.

Survive and the deputy minister will give it to him.

If he dies, then he dies. Anyway, the Finance Department of Tiebi City doesn't need such an idiot.

"Hey, Otsutsuki Isshiki, the minister is really pleased with you. If you succeed, I can retire then~" A middle-aged man patted Otsutsuki Isshiki's shoulder with a smile.

He is the deputy minister of the Finance Department, but he is not worried at all that Otsutsuki Isshiki could threaten his position.

He won't live for many days anyway.

"I guarantee to complete the mission!" Otsutsuki Isshiki patted his chest loyally.

A farce ended just like that, but before the meeting was over, the news that a fool in the Finance Department meeting had spoken out and wanted the nobles and wealthy businessmen to pay for it spread to the ears of those people.

But no one cares.

Isshiki Otsutsuki has now returned to his ordinary little home. There aren't many furnitures in the house. After all, all his savings were spent on entering the finance department.

"Is it your Majesty's birthday?" Otsutsuki Isshiki looked at the poster on the wall, a little absent-minded.

It has been a year since he came to this world. During this time, Otsutsuki Isshiki determined that he could not condense chakra, so he could only borrow that magical power to become stronger, and also contributed a lot of knowledge.

Then, after some effort, he finally entered the department called Finance Department, and worked hard to become stronger.

"Extraordinary." Ambition flashed in Otsutsuki Isshiki's eyes. He would become stronger by then and then take revenge on Otsutsuki Kaguya!

"So the problem now is how to make money." The next morning, Otsutsuki Isshiki got up early and went out, muttering to himself as he walked.

The old man Griffin gave him a deadline of seven days. He had to get the money within seven days. If he couldn't get the money, he would be fired. If he could get the money, he would be the deputy minister and even become an extraordinary person.

Of course, Isshiki Otsutsuki also knew that what came out of a politician like Griffin was not necessarily trustworthy.

If there is one true word among the ten sentences, it means Griffin has a conscience.

However, whether Minister Griffin can fulfill his promise is a matter that will have to wait until later. Now Otsutsuki Isshiki is heading towards the inner city.

"Lord Otsutsuki Isshiki, good morning." Along the way, many people would show a flattering smile when they saw Otsutsuki Isshiki.

Many people in the outer city of Tiebi City know that the outsider Otsutsuki Isshiki has become a member of the Finance Department. He has jumped from an ordinary person to a high-ranking official and is very impressive.

However, currying favor with the powerful and treating others as you please are things that are learned naturally in Tiebi City.

Those who don't do this are either born with a silver spoon in their hands, or they are bold and ignorant fools. When they arrived at a tavern, Otsutsuki Isshiki turned his head and went in.

"Mr. Otsutsuki Isshiki, the weather is nice today." There was a man sitting at the bar of the tavern. He was the owner of the tavern. He was wiping the wine glasses. When he saw Otsutsuki Isshiki, he smiled and greeted him.

"Your Majesty's glory shines on us." Otsutsuki Isshiki sat on the chair with a smile, and then tapped the table with his fingers twice.

The boss raised his eyebrows and immediately smiled with understanding.

"Old rules, Mr. Otsutsuki Isshiki." The boss put the wine glass on the shelf.

"The new rules will be implemented starting tomorrow. We will draw numbers to travel. Odd numbers will be drawn on one leg, even numbers will be drawn on both legs. You will definitely get an even number with one gold coin." Otsutsuki Isshiki said what he heard at the meeting yesterday.

Griffin obviously intends to do two things at once, on the one hand, to see if Isshiki Ōtsutsuki can get the money, and on the other hand, he intends to continue using his methods to collect money.

In this way, even if Otsutsuki Isshiki failed, it would not have any impact on him.

So this seemingly outrageous rule was set by Griffin.

The boss understood, then took out a gold coin from his pocket and put it on the table.

"I don't want this. I want to know if Mrs. Anna's Chamber of Commerce is planning to build a large shopping mall?" Otsutsuki Isshiki looked at the boss intently.

"You need another gold coin." The boss put the gold coin away and looked at Otsutsuki Isshiki with a smile.

"You information dealers are really making money. You make money just by opening your mouth and closing your mouth." Otsutsuki Isshiki cursed and placed a gold coin on the table.

You know, in order to buy the qualification to work in the Finance Department, Otsutsuki Isshiki spent eighty gold coins, and he spent some more on living and paying taxes during this period. Now he only has sixteen gold coins.

No, there are only fifteen now.

But Otsutsuki Isshiki did not hesitate. Whether his plan would succeed depended on this information.

And
Isshiki Otsutsuki glanced at the boss. He had heard his colleagues in the finance department talking about how all the nobles had registered with the intelligence dealers. If anyone asked them for information about these nobles, they would be able to get their information.
"Madam Anna's Chamber of Commerce does plan to build a large shopping mall in Iron Coin City, but as you know, the land price in Iron Coin City is not easy to get now. The lady was so anxious that she called five male servants overnight." The boss collected the gold coins.

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki understood.

He had heard two colleagues chatting in the Finance Department before. During the chat, they mentioned that Mrs. Anna was planning to open a shopping mall, which gave Otsutsuki Isshiki some ideas.

"By the way, I've got a piece of information for you. Madam Anna likes men like you with black hair and black eyes." When Otsutsuki Isshiki was about to leave, the boss added with a smile.

The corner of Otsutsuki Isshiki's mouth twitched. Is this going to make him a rich woman's happy ball?

"Thank you." Otsutsuki Isshiki hurried out the door.

Looking at Isshiki Otsutsuki's back as he left, the boss shook his head. He had heard what Isshiki Otsutsuki said at the Finance Department meeting yesterday. He was not very optimistic about this client of his. It seemed that he would not be able to earn his intelligence fees in the future.

Ōtsutsuki Isshiki had no idea that his boss was lamenting about his intelligence expenses, as he had now reached the entrance to the inner city.

Iron Coin City, the city ruled by Her Majesty the Witch, is divided into the outer city and the inner city. The outer city is further divided into the untouchable area, the civilian area, etc. The inner city is relatively simple.

Some of the powerful departments and nobles and wealthy businessmen of Tiebi City live here.

Although there were guards in the inner city, Otsutsuki Isshiki had a work permit from the Finance Department, so he was only searched when he entered. Then, under the teasing eyes of the soldiers, he walked into the inner city.

Many people in the inner city knew that Otsutsuki Isshiki was a bold and arrogant fool who actually tried to ask for money from the nobles. This was simply courting death.

When Otsutsuki Isshiki entered, he even heard two soldiers discussing how many days he could survive.

"Sunshine in the Inner City" Otsutsuki Isshiki felt the warm sunlight on his body and was a little amazed.

The sunlight in the outer city is ordinary, but that in the inner city is like a large air conditioner, always maintaining a comfortable temperature.

Isshiki Otsutsuki looked up and saw the sun in the sky was dazzling and eye-catching, but what concerned Isshiki Otsutsuki the most was the huge seal on this star.

This unique pattern indicates that this star is the private property of Her Majesty the Witch.

A witch who is powerful enough to stamp stars and make them her own personal property is the ruler of this land.

Just like those strong men within the family, the top strong men in this world are qualified to fight with those strong men within the family. This also made Yishi decide to put all his bets here.

Ever since he came to Iron Coin City, he had been looking for a way to become extraordinary. Then he discovered in despair that the door to the extraordinary had never been open to ordinary people like him.

He was too old and it was too late for him to practice martial arts. He could not afford the price to study magic, so Otsutsuki Isshiki chose another method.

After all, this world is ruled by extraordinary people. The closer you are to the center of power, the greater the possibility of becoming extraordinary.

So Otsutsuki Isshiki decided to climb up step by step, and this time was the opportunity he had been looking for.

Of course there are risks.

But risks and opportunities always coexist.

"Mr. Otsutsuki Isshiki, your lady would like to invite you over for a cup of tea." He had only taken two steps when two knights, whose auras distorted the air around them, stood in front of Otsutsuki Isshiki.

"Okay." Otsutsuki Isshiki smiled.

The damn information dealer did not disappoint him.

"This guy... is smiling happily." Amemiya Kenichi looked at Otsutsuki Isshiki with a half-smile. Hasn't this guy realized that this is an illusion? That's good.

I wonder if I can use this to play an online game next time. (End of this chapter)
