Became the mastermind behind the Akatsuki organization

Chapter 26 Steady and Positive
"Got it. I'll do as you said, Bai Ye. I'll announce this reward and punishment system at the meeting tomorrow."

Seeing that Yahiko was very understanding, Bai Ye nodded slightly, then seemed to remember something and said, "By the way, I will not participate in tomorrow's organizational meeting. I look forward to your performance."

"Why? It was you who came up with the idea of ​​setting up a reward and punishment system."

Yahiko doesn't understand why Bai Ye is unwilling to attend the organization meeting. In his opinion, this is a good opportunity for Bai Ye to show up, and maybe it will change the extreme image of Bai Ye in everyone's eyes.

"Yahiko, someone has to do the dirty work in the organization. If you don't want to do it, I'll have to do it."

"Besides, you will definitely promote the concept of mutual understanding between people at the meeting. Instead of arguing with you, it would be easier for me to just not go."

Bai Ye looked into Yahiko's eyes and said bluntly.

Yahiko was stunned for a moment, then he smiled helplessly and stopped persuading Bai Ye.

As companions in the same organization, the two can sit down and have a serious talk for the development of the organization, but when it comes to a dispute over ideas, even if they are good friends, they cannot agree with each other's views.

He believes that peace comes from mutual understanding between people, and the use of force is secondary.

As long as there is a possibility of resolving the problem peacefully, he will try his best.

Bai Ye seems to believe in the use of force more and does not believe in the concept of mutual understanding between people. When facing some enemies, he will choose to subdue them, while Bai Ye will just kill them all.

This is their biggest disagreement.

Thinking of this, Yahiko gave up the idea that had been brewing in his mind for a long time.

After Nagato refused the position of leader and Bai Ye showed the responsibility and fighting ability that a leader should have, he had the idea of ​​passing the position of leader to Bai Ye.

But now Yahiko hesitated again. No one could guarantee that after Bai Ye became the leader, he would not lead the Akatsuki organization astray.

Bai Ye saw Yahiko's conflicted expression, but he didn't say much. After saying hello, he left the office.

He could roughly guess what Yahiko was thinking and understood that Yahiko was thinking about passing on the throne.

But he had to nip this trend in the bud. The leader of Akatsuki at the moment could only be Yahiko. He didn't want to waste his precious time managing the development of Akatsuki. It would be better for him to be an advisor to the leader with some power.

Moreover, if the good guy Yahiko didn't become the leader, Akatsuki's cohesion wouldn't be so strong.

Walking in the Akatsuki base, Bai Ye could clearly feel that the way the surrounding ninjas looked at him was significantly different.

Although he still greeted people as usual, there was obvious awe in his expression. This was the benefit of showing one's strength. He would attract attention wherever he went, and his status had also improved a lot.

Before heading to the training ground, Byakuya remembered what he had promised Nagato and headed towards the living area.

Nagato told him that after knowing that selling detonating tags was very profitable, Konan stayed in the house every day to make detonating tags, and only left the base to go to the black market when she had to sell detonating tags.

It's a good thing that Konan makes money, but Nagato is worried about whether Konan's body can hold on.

When he arrived outside Xiaonan's room, Bai Ye saw that the doors and windows were locked, and there was a sign hanging outside saying "No Trespassing".

It seems that Konan has refused to communicate with Nagato. No wonder someone with Nagato's personality is so anxious.

After knocking gently on the door, a tired voice came from inside: "Who are you?"

"It's me, Bai Ye."

Bai Ye explained his identity.

Not long after, Xiaonan, who was wearing casual clothes, opened the door, rubbed the dark circles under his eyes, and said, "Bai Ye, why are you here? I thought it was Nagato and Yahiko?" "Did you come here to develop some new paper escape ninjutsu this time?"

Bai Ye did not answer immediately, but walked into Xiaonan's room. When he saw the pile of explosives on the ground as high as a desk, his heart skipped a beat.

There are thousands of detonating talismans here, just randomly placed on the ground.

If the fire goes off, it would be difficult to survive even if he mastered the secret technique of paper escape, but Konan was still bold.

After looking around, Bai Ye looked at Xiao Nan and said, "Nagato asked me to come here. He told you not to work so hard to make detonating talismans and to pay more attention to rest."

"That's something Nagato would say."

Xiaonan nodded, and then said tiredly:

"I understand what Nagato means, but Akatsuki has always had a funding shortage. If we don't rely on selling detonating tags, we won't be able to maintain the normal operation of the organization. I just want to make more money."

"By the way, Bai Ye, do you also think I should take a rest?"

Bai Ye shook his head and then explained the market principle:

"Your body is your own. I won't advise you too much, but as you sell more and more Detonating Talismans, the price will go down. After you work so hard to make Detonating Talismans, you actually don't make any more money."

Konan was silent for a few seconds. If Byakuya had urged her to rest like Nagato did, she would have simply ignored him.

But she did feel the change in the price of detonating talismans these days, and those black market dealers began to ask for discounts one by one. For this reason, she worked so hard to make detonating talismans, hoping to make up for the price drop through quantity.

After a moment of silence, Xiaonan asked, "Is there any way to solve this problem?"

"Of course..." Bai Ye nodded: "As long as we take the initiative to provoke a war, we can expand demand and even take the opportunity to raise prices and make more money."

"..."

It's a good idea, but Xiaonan can't accept it at all.

Selling detonating tags is already the limit. Taking the initiative to provoke a war is completely against Yahiko's philosophy, and she herself cannot get over this hurdle.

Seeing Xiaonan's expression, Bai Ye continued, "Another way is to reduce the production of Detonating Talismans and save the extra ones for your own people to use. This way, you won't have to be so tired."

"Reduce production?"

Xiaonan seemed to understand, but nodded anyway. When it came to making money, all he needed to do was listen to Bai Ye's advice, and he didn't need to think too much about other aspects.

Seeing that Xiaonan was so interested in learning, Bai Ye took the opportunity to talk to Xiaonan about some economic principles.

Although Xiaonan's face was full of confusion, he still tried hard to listen, nodded from time to time to express his doubts, and finally watched Bai Ye leave his room with admiring eyes.

After walking out of the room, Bai Ye touched his chin and left with satisfaction.

Looking at the mountains outside the Akatsuki base, Bai Ye felt very comfortable.

Although he persuaded Xiaonan to make some detonating tags by explaining the relationship between supply and demand, he still fulfilled his promise to Nagato.

At this point, the internal affairs of Akatsuki were handled by Yahiko, the finances were handled by Konan, and the military force was also guaranteed by himself and Nagato.

Everything in Akatsuki is moving in a stable and positive direction.
