The strongest Takikage

Chapter 409 Human Trafficking
Kakudo felt that Obito looked more and more pleasing to the eye.

Children who can pick up money are good children.

Before, he didn't care about Liuli's practice of vigorously cultivating Obito, but he didn't expect that it was indeed valuable in cultivation.

Even, seeing the banknote waving with soil, he couldn't help but wonder, would this open up a new way of making money?

How much money was left on the side of the road?

If a ninja with Sharingan can keep an eye on the dropped banknotes on the way to perform tasks, wouldn't that be extra income?

Maybe the white eyes are better, the field of vision is wider, and there are no dead ends in 360 degrees.

Even without special eyes, the eyesight of a ninja is very good. If you practice more, you can find the lost coins in the corner, just take a casual glance and pick them up. Thinking about it this way, it is really a good way to generate income!
Thinking of this, Kakuzu immediately walked to Obito in two steps in three steps, and took the worn-out banknote.

The denomination of banknotes is not large. In this kind of place, it is obviously left behind by the previous refugees, only 30 taels.

But how much do you add up to 30 taels one by one?

Jiaodu was thinking earnestly, and suddenly, Obito said, "Why are there words on it?"

Have words?Write on money?How can this be!What a blasphemy against money!

Frowning at every corner, he looked carefully at the banknote in his hand, glanced down, but froze.

"Hope you're having a great day."

A few crooked words do not hinder the shock it brings.

"what does this mean?"

The nervous Obito was a little puzzled.

"Put it back."

Kakuto handed the money back to Obito, and Obito took it, but still didn't know why.

"It was deliberately left by a refugee for the latecomers. Thirty taels is not much, but it is enough for people to eat a hot meal in the village."

Jiaodu thought of the Warring States period, when he almost starved to death when he was young, and the days when ten taels could save lives.

He was born as a commoner, and he knows better than anyone else that as a refugee, he had to stay away from his homeland and wander around because of the ninja fight.

He suddenly became suspicious of his act of burning money to the deceased. Although the money consumed was not much, and he only burned 50 taels or 100 taels for people who had no close relationship. Is this money, like these refugees, left to the needy living?

The living have a greater chance of surviving, and the dead will be happy because of it, right?

"30 taels, can you eat enough?"

Obito pressed the money back to the bottom of the meadow, surprised.

"You are from the Uchiha, and you are a ninja family. Naturally, you are not short of money. The price of Konoha is relatively high. You can't eat half a bowl of Iraku ramen for 30 taels, but it is enough for ordinary people to eat for a day. If you save more, you can barely eat two or three. sky."

Kakuzu said, this is the innate gap between family ninjas and civilian ninjas. No matter how upright Obito's three views are, no matter how much he likes to help old men and women cross the road, he still doesn't know enough about these common people.

"30 taels, can you eat for two or three days?" Obito couldn't believe it. After thinking about the daily life of these people, he still accepted the fact.

It has nothing to do with personality, but mainly depends on the environmental factors of growth.

Just like Hashirama back then, even for such a person, the peace in his heart was only the peace of ninjas in a relatively narrow sense before he went to Takiyin Village, and he never thought of civilians.

Obito looked at the dilapidated shacks, and then at the dilapidated meadows on the ground, as if there was a figure of a refugee writing in his mind.

The refugee didn't have a lot of money on him. He lost his home because of the war in the Fire Nation. word.

I just hope that the refugees in the future can feel a little warmth.

Perhaps, he also got help from the previous wave of refugees. This is a group of people worthy of ninjas to protect with their lives, using ninjutsu and chakra to make their lives better.

Obito nodded half-understanding. These people are different from the ordinary villagers in Konoha. At least the villagers in Konoha will not be hungry. People like this have no money to hire ninjas. The existence of ninjas is important to them. In other words, it is only destroying the residence.

"Although these people are short of money, they do not lack love for life. It is with these people that the world of ninjas becomes complete. The existence of Chakra is to make these people's lives better. The existence of ninjas , is to change this situation, not simply fight and kill."

Liuli came in from the outside at this time. He had gone back to the village earlier to investigate some information about the shantytowns.

Intuition told him that the disappearance of refugees was not simple.

"Brother." Seeing Liuli coming, Jiao Du responded.

"The few refugees who are closest to now are already a year ago. At that time, the Konoha War hadn't happened yet."

"One year ago" Kakudu analyzed: "One year ago Konoha had just ended the war against Kirigakure, and the Fire Nation officials gradually began to resettle the refugees. If there were no refugees during that period, it would be normal, but almost A month ago, Konoha was submerged in water, and the water level skyrocketed during a big battle. Although there were not as many refugees as when ninjas fought directly outside, there would still be some."

"It's really unusual for no one to come like this." Obito also added.

"I think they should be taken away by someone." Liuli said in a deep voice, there are nine out of ten people who are robbing and abducting people.

Civilians are no longer the dispensable existence they used to be. They initially possess chakra, are physically strong, and have good production capacity. They are the population resources that every country needs.

It's not like the era when Takiyin Village could accept refugees from other countries at will like a few decades ago. If ninjas act like Uchiha Madara to drive away refugees, they will be regarded as fools.

Population can generate benefits, and all countries are encouraging births. After the war, they are actively resettling refugees. Even the nobles know that it is great to have a few more farmers in their territories.

Therefore, for the sake of profit, there are many people who take risks.

The human trafficking industry is gradually taking shape. A few years ago, Liuli found a caravan that was selling human beings to the country of Taki, and those people were refugees from the small country.

Some refugees are really unbearable to be harassed by war and oppressed by big countries, while others are forcibly taken away from their places of residence and traded as commodities.

Moreover, nobles have always needed servants. As the lives of the people in the ninja world improve, how can so many people be willing to work for the nobles?
You can eat enough by planting the fields and harvesting vegetables by yourself. Why should you serve the noble master who is difficult to serve? There is no freedom in life.

"People trading?"

Jiaodu also thought of this, he looked at the meadow with 30 taels buried under his eyes, and thought of the refugee who left money for the latecomers, his eyes became extremely sharp.

"Go to the nearest underground exchange, there should be some information."

Liuli said in a deep voice, the popularity of Chakra has brought benefits of increased productivity, but also brought disadvantages. People who commit major human trafficking cases like this will basically be those who have certain talents and strengths, but cannot be tolerated. The wandering ninjas accepted by the village, they think they are powerful, they are unwilling to farm, and they cannot receive commissions. If they want to make money, they have to wander in the gray area.

Therefore, if you want to find their clues, the underground exchange is the most convenient.
