Naruto: Hyuga with the Sword

Seeing that the problem had been solved, Shanxi, the leader of the caravan, called on his servants to put the captured warriors on the carriage and lock them up.

Shanxi had hired Hinata Shinichi before, and he knew why he kept these people.

Most of those who came out to rob were defectors from various countries, and usually there was a bounty.

It was agreed before that their caravan would provide carriages to escort these people, and then share some of the bounty with them. Shanxi would naturally not refuse some unexpected income.

Hinata Shinichi was not like other ninjas who always acted superior to ordinary people like them when it came to getting along with people. This made Shanxi very optimistic about his future. Even if he could not become a very strong ninja, he would definitely not be bad in terms of connections.

"Ah, thanks to you guys, I was so scared when I saw so many warriors rushing out with swords that I almost couldn't stand."

"What are you talking about, Shanxi brother? What is our relationship? It's all settled. Should we take a break or continue on our journey?"

"Let's hurry up, keep on going, and rest after entering the Iron Country, this border is too dangerous."

Before entering the Iron Country, we saw that the Iron Country was covered with snow, and the wind was cold. After entering the country, we found a cave to rest.

Hinata Shinichi, his three companions and a dog sat together with Shanxi to roast the fire and chat. During the chat, what Hinata Shinichi said also shocked Shanxi.

"How is your business lately, Brother Shanxi?"

"It's OK. I made some money from the cargo you escorted last time. The original goods were only daily necessities, so I expanded the team a little this time, hoping to get more goods."

"Shanxi brother can try the voucher"

"What are vouchers?"

"It is a voucher that can be used to deduct some money. You can get a voucher worth 5 taels or 10 taels. You can use the voucher to deduct some money based on how much you spend. Everyone who comes to the store can draw once. As long as you have a voucher, you can stimulate consumption."

"Huh? Is this still possible?"

"Well, if you want to expand the scale, you can also apply to the village to buy a piece of land and build a department store."

"What is a department store?"

"It is a place where all the merchants who can sell things are gathered together. Clothes can be concentrated on the first floor, daily necessities on the second floor, etc. In this way, all the merchants are planned to one place, and the vouchers can be used for all the goods in the mall.……"

Listening to what Hinata Shinichi said, Shanxi became more and more excited, and at the same time he felt that Hinata Shinichi was a genius.

As long as he opened this department store, decorated it properly and promoted it, and since there were no competitors now, he would be the first department store in the Land of Fire, and he could make money by attracting investment and advertising to businesses.

Although each of the major families had their own industries, he could cooperate with them in joint ventures and give them special preferential policies to encourage them to move in. This would also be a good advertisement, and he could create many jobs, and the village would support him as a major taxpayer.

But the next moment, Hinata Shinichi's words cooled Shanxi's excitement like cold water poured down his cheeks.

"But the scale can't be too large. Brother Shanxi, you also know that the border line has been getting more and more unstable recently. If you want to go out to purchase goods, you have to issue an escort mission. It is probably difficult to do it now."

Hinata Shinichi looked at the snow scene of the Iron Country and fell into deep thought. It is now the 32nd year of Konoha. In a few years, World War II will start, and the neutral country of Iron Country will be invaded by the Rain Country.

In the end, a samurai named Mifune stood up and sacrificed his life in exchange for the lives of his companions, which won Hanzo's appreciation. In addition, the Iron Country was too far away from the Rain Country, so Hanzo stopped invading the Iron Country.

Wanting to go out to purchase goods during a war can be said to be putting your head on the waist of your pants. Even a behemoth like the Fire Country will be declared war and invaded. The current Fire Country is the same as other countries. In terms of manufacturing, It's not very good. We can only rely on other countries to buy things that our own country doesn't have.

Ninjas only do what ninjas should do, and these policy decisions are decided by the daimyo. The Kage of each country is just the head of a village.

Fortunately, the daimyo of the Fire Country is not a good-for-nothing. The development of the Fire Country has been very good in recent years. Hinata Shinichi's idea is just standing on the shoulders of giants.

After a short rest, they started to hurry on their way again. On the way, Shanxi was thinking about something in the carriage, so he didn't chat with Hinata Shinichi and the others on the way. Only Hinata Shinichi and Inu were there. Tsukusaki occasionally chatted with some coachmen and servants, so the journey was not so boring.

When we arrived at the town of Iron Country, we met a patrol team. Hinata Shinichi found the young Mifune among them, and pretended to ask about the location of the inn and get acquainted with him.

Finally, he told Mifune about the group of captured wandering samurai, and immediately led us to the Guard Bureau to collect the bounty.

After receiving the bounty, Hinata Shinichi and Shanxi invited Mifune and his colleagues to have a meal together, but Mifune refused because he still had to patrol. It can be seen that Mifune is now a very upright person.

As a neutral country, Iron Country is very Many merchants would bring teams here to buy goods from each other, so the people were quite mixed. They patrolled to prevent the ninja guards of the merchant caravan from fighting with the ninja guards of other countries.

In the end, everyone found a hotel to rest. Hinata Shinichi was not very tired, so he went out alone.

On the way to the commodity trading venue, they met several ninja guards from other countries. They were all wary of each other. Among them, there were the most ninja guards from the Land of Lightning.

The technological development of the Land of Lightning can be said to be ahead of other countries. Among the commodities brought over, there were several electrical appliances. Hinata Shinichi took a fancy to the electric fan.

"Well, it would be nice to buy one for grandma to blow, so that she won't be too hot in the summer."

Hinata Shinichi came to the caravan, squatted down and studied the electric fan, which was an adjustable fan, and reached out to take out the purse from the ninja bag behind his waist. When the ninja guards from the Land of Lightning saw that Hinata Shinichi was a ninja from Konoha and had those white eyes, they all took out their kunai and looked at Hinata Shinichi warily.���Seeing that the other party took out a wallet, they did not let down their guard.

"Boss, how much is this electric fan?"

The boss was a dark-skinned uncle with a beard. He was not surprised to see that Hinata Shinichi knew the name of the appliance. After all, he was not the only one who could sell these appliances.

Although the current technological level of the Lightning Country is very good, the production progress is a problem. There are too many people working as ninjas, animal husbandry, and winemaking, and they are all businessmen.

After some bargaining, Hinata Shinichi finally cut the original selling price in half and bought two electric fans, which is equivalent to buying two for the price of one.

This made the Lightning Country ninja guards and some passers-by who were just joining in the fun all surprised. He was shocked. He could bargain like this.

Of course, even if he cut the price in half, the merchant would still make some money. Nowadays, the profit of this kind of electrical appliances is very high, even several times the cost price.

When Hinata Shinichi paid for the electric fan and left, the passers-by who had been observing this place also came to the merchant, wanting to learn Hinata Shinichi's bargaining skills, but they were all driven away. The reason why Hinata Shinichi was successful was because he was so good at talking. The boss couldn't win the argument and was even confused by him. He almost became a brother to him and agreed before the price reached a price he couldn't accept.
