The strongest Takikage

Chapter 417 Germinated Seeds

Representatives from various countries are thinking.

Even the king of the other country, who first objected, was thinking about it.

He likes fame very much, and he likes others to talk about himself.

Decades ago, when he was still a prince, he wanted to invest a large sum of money to buy the waterfall auctioned by Longyin Village.

In addition to wanting to use the waterfall to witness the friendship between the other country and this country, and to propose to the princess of this country, the purpose is to show off among the big shots attending the auction.

And if the waterfall is bought by him and moved to the border between the other country and this country, everyone who sees the waterfall will think of him, the prince who bought the waterfall, and let his name spread easily. down.

After all, nobles are not like ninjas, and powerful ninjas can easily leave their names in history.

For example, names such as Amamiya Ruri, Senju Hashirama, and Uchiha Madara are still sung in the ninja world.

But the nobles are different. No matter how high the status is, no matter how much money there is, and there are thousands of servants and guards, there will be very few people who will remember it after a hundred years.

The ninja broke a bridge and flattened a slope today, which can be used as an after-dinner conversation, but what about the nobles?
Who remembers how many wives they married and how many rare treasures they collected?

Even daimyo and kings cannot make the people remember them all the time.

Just like now, everyone knows that Senju Hashirama, who founded Konoha, even if it is like Guren, at least remembers the surname.

But who remembers who was the daimyo of Fire Country who supported Hashirama and funded the construction of Konoha?

And now that the status of the nobility has been reduced a little bit, it is even more difficult to be known.

Honglian seemed to understand what these high-ranking nobles were discussing.

Every word and deed of these people will affect the lives of ordinary civilians like myself.

She thought of the refugees who were arrested together with her, the people in various villages, her father, mother, grandpa, and grandma.
She felt that what she wanted to do, at least, tell the life of people like them.

Those grown-ups certainly don't know what kind of life they lead. How can they think correctly about things they don't know?
"Grandpa is dead."

Honglian spoke suddenly, and the immature childish voice immediately attracted everyone's attention, even Liuli looked over.

"That was the time of the Second Ninja World War. I was not born yet, and my mother told me that grandpa died of starvation."

"I don't know what it's like to starve to death. My parents always try to make me full. Until a few years ago, during the third Ninja World War, my parents and I were forced to leave the village. There was no food on the way. I Feeling very hungry."

"You must have never been hungry, have you?" Honglian looked around with her big eyes flickering. These fat nobles really never went hungry.

Everyone here, except Liuli and Jiaodu, who had experienced the more difficult and troubled times of the Warring States Period, could not have been hungry.

"I endured it, my stomach felt like it was burning, and my eyes closed and closed. I really wanted to close them, but my mother said that if I closed them, I couldn't open them."

"I don't want to be unable to open my eyes, so my mother's eyes were red, and she found some bark, loess, and grass roots for me. They are very difficult to eat, but they can open my eyes after eating. You adults must have never eaten them."

Honglian's voice paused, recalling these, it seemed that there were signs of crying again.

What she said was something that no one had heard before, and the nobles didn't know about it at all. Namikaze Minato and Xiguashan puffer ghosts who were born as commoners could understand part of it, but they used to belong to the group of commoners who lived fairly well , In the end, I still can't really experience this feeling.

"Then my mother died too."

"My mother is sick, we can't cure it, and there is no money to treat it. My mother always told me to keep her eyes open, but she closed her eyes first. Dad took me and buried her in the ground. We There is also a small wooden sign.”

"Everyone, you have seen a doctor. It is common sense to see a doctor when you are sick. You will be treated by a doctor when you are sick, because you have never worried about money."

Hong Lian still didn't stop: "Father died too, when he was caught."

"Dad has always been very good. He will make money. He has been to Muye Village before, sold things in Muye Village, and proudly told me that he paid taxes."

"Is it a rare thing to pay taxes? I don't know. Dad told me that paying taxes means that he has made a contribution to the country. He is very proud that he is a member of the Fire Nation."

"The country should protect Dad, right? Because Dad has made contributions to the country."

"But Dad died when he was captured by the wandering ninja, and I didn't see where he was in the end."

"Now, I am alone. I don't know if I am a resident of the Fire Nation, I don't know where I belong, and I don't know who will care about me."

"There are many refugees who have been arrested like me. Among them, there must be people who have no home like me, and people who have paid taxes and contributed to the country like my father, but we are still like this. .”

"If we can be paid more attention to, we really don't need much. The things popularized by the first generation of Metakakage have already allowed us to be self-sufficient. We only need a place to stay and more protection of rights and interests. A little bit Well, even I can contribute to the country like my father did."

After Honglian finished speaking, she seemed extremely calm.

She uttered the puzzlement and sorrow of a six or seven-year-old girl, and she felt much relieved.

Namikaze Minato secretly clenched his hands and gave her a sorry look.

As a ninja from the Land of Fire, it was his mistake not to protect the citizens of the Land of Fire. Ninjas don't just fight and kill, they also have something called protection and responsibility.

Among Konoha's funds, there are grants from the Nation of Fire, and among the grants from the Nation of Fire, there are taxes for ordinary people. Minato thinks about the age of Guren's father, and it is impossible to say that the taxes he has paid have also entered the right Among Konoha's grants, perhaps he benefited from it when he was a child.

Just like Naruto in the original book, his parents died, the villagers hated him, and he could still grow up. How much subsidy did he receive?And where do these subsidies come from?

If Naruto's situation was placed on a commoner, that child would probably not survive half a year.

It is not possible for everyone to be equal, but it can still be done if the rights and interests of these civilians who support nobles and ninjas are improved.

There was silence in the conference room for a while, and Honglian's unimpressive words became the last straw.

"I agree that ensuring the rights and interests of civilians to a certain extent can also reduce domestic turmoil. Perfect laws will make there are fewer robbers and robbers."

The round-faced daimyo of the country of tea was the first to speak. Among many daimyos, he is younger and more enlightened. The government system in the country of tea is also very telling. Only political groups that win the sacrificial activities can become tea The ruling group of the country.

That is to say, even as a daimyo, his status is not that stable, and he is still in power. Once he leaves office, it will be tantamount to a change of dynasty. The ruling group has changed, and no one remembers him at all.

If you want to leave your name in history and let people remember you, it is undoubtedly a good way to be one of the initiators of laws and treaties that improve the rights and interests of civilians.

The ninjas also began to speak, they were more happy to see the common people benefiting than the nobles, just like what Liuli said before, the more money the common people have, the more entrustment the ninjas will have.

As for the nobility?They are already rich.

The leader of Fuzi Village was the first to speak. She is a strong ninja with orange hair and green eyes. Except for the washboard, she is almost impeccable.

Women are more emotional, and she looked at Honglian with pity.

No one dares to ignore her attitude. It is rumored that she once tied with Jiraiya, one of the Sannin, and had a marriage contract.
