Chapter 166 - Chapter 166: Mito

The Third Hokage, or the top leaders of the Hidden Leaf Village, allocated a total of 20 million ryo for the renovation of the Valley of the End... I have to say, this is a sufficient amount of money.

If currency conversion is performed, 20 million taels is roughly equivalent to 2 million US dollars, but considering the social production capacity, currency purchasing power and inflation level of the current period... In a nutshell, money is very valuable, so Hanyu became rich overnight.

This money is more than enough to carve two statues of liberty on a broken wall .

Well, public money in private pockets is equivalent to private property, and private property is sacred and inviolable. Anyway, the Third Hokage just wants to see the statue of the Valley of the End erected in the end. If the statue is magnificent, he will feel that the money was well spent.

The only problem is... I don't know if Konoha's asset management department will monitor the flow of funds. If not, then everything can be negotiated. Hanyu can deduct 10 million of the 20 million first, and then use the remaining 10 million to subcontract the entire project to a second-tier contractor. The second-tier contractor can then use 8 million of it to carve the statue of the first generation and 2 million to build the statue of Uchiha Madara.

By making good use of the 80/20 rule, the engineering quality of the statue of the first Hokage can still be guaranteed, so the result will still be a happy ending for everyone... As for Uchiha Madara, who cares about Uchiha Madara?

But this operation is probably difficult. First of all, don't forget that Hanyu is a registered person in the village asset management organization, and he has a history of wasting war resources. It may be easy or difficult to embezzle money, but at least it is difficult for Hanyu because he is a targeted person.

Making money directly requires no technical skills and is indeed very profitable, so you can use the funds as capital to make some simple, fast, high-yield investments, such as... following Tsunade into the casino, and then "Tsunade buys the opposite, a villa by the sea."

But this actually doesn't work. Firstly, Hanyu has a lot of money, and most casinos are not that big. Secondly, it's not easy to take advantage of Tsunade. Generally speaking, as long as she stays in the casino for two minutes, everyone will follow her and buy the opposite, which will cause the odds to be so low that it's better than nothing.

Okay, so why would a ninja need so much money? These thoughts were just a joke... When Hanyu found out that the money was a bit complicated, he immediately stated in a noble manner that he had no interest in money. He had never touched money in his life, and the happiest time of his life was the time he wandered in the forest.

The Third Hokage's travel team is already ready, and he will lead the team to leave the village next. The two subsequent peace agreement signing ceremonies will be held on the territory of the small country, and before the top leaders of each village arrive at the signing site, they have sent a large number of ninjas to conduct reconnaissance and guarding. The defense force around the Third Hokage is also extremely strong, able to ensure that everything is foolproof... Everyone has suffered too much in this regard, and no one wants any accidents to happen in such negotiation occasions.

At this point, Hanyu should have gone to work, but he didn't, because his request to meet Uzumaki Mito was responded to.

It is an affirmative reply.

"Hanyu, you must be careful about what you say in front of my grandmother. She is a very dignified and orthodox person...but when she gets angry, she is very scary. I still remember how she beat up my grandfather. So you should know what to say and what not to say."

Tsunade led the way for Hanyu and kept looking back to remind him.

"Of course I understand, and I like to communicate with people with dignified personalities," Hanyu said.

Uzumaki Mito beat up Senju Hashirama? Hanyu didn't believe it. Tsunade was just trying to scare him. He had never heard that the first Hokage was a henpecked husband.

Compared to those who talk nonsense and don't speak the truth, those who have the style of elders are more suitable for communication. And Hanyu asked to meet with Uzumaki Mito not to keep in touch with her, but because he had something serious to discuss with her.

Soon, the two arrived at the entrance of a courtyard with gray walls and green tiles. This was a relatively central location in Konoha, not far from the old residence of the Senju clan that Hanyu had visited before.

Tsunade knocked on the door gently, and this action even made Hanyu glance at her. After all, it was rare for the child to move so gently. Just a few breaths later, a young red-haired maid opened the door.

After confirming the identity of the person outside the door, she said, "Lady Tsunade, Lady Hanyu, please come in."

It was obvious that the other party was a member of the Uzumaki clan, but... it didn't seem to be a problem for an Uzumaki clan member to guard the door for Uzumaki Mito.

Hanyu followed Tsunade and walked into the courtyard. He then scanned the layout of the courtyard: pines and cypresses, flowing ponds, majestic deer, winding paths... Everything looked elegant and traditional, so the character of the owner of the courtyard could be imagined.

Hanyu is Sansho's disciple, and Sansho is Uzumaki Mito's daughter. However, this does not mean anything. Given the indifference between ninjas, it is difficult for Sansho to extend her closeness to Hanyu to Uzumaki Mito. Therefore, although it cannot be said that there is no connection between Hanyu and Uzumaki Mito, Tsunade should have played a relatively large role in Hanyu's ability to meet Uzumaki Mito now.

After crossing the courtyard, going around the corridor and entering the inner room, Hanyu met Uzumaki Mito.

Tsunade's eye and hair color are more similar to her father's. She is one-quarter Senju and one-quarter Uzumaki. And Sansho is one-half Senju and one-half Uzumaki. She looks very much like her mother... In other words, except that one has black hair and the other has red hair, the old Uzumaki Mito looks like the old Sansho.

So for a while, Hanyu didn't say anything.

"Tsunade, Hanyu and I have something important to discuss next, so you and Ziko go down first and come back later." At this time, Uzumaki Mito spoke.

Tsunade pouted, a little dissatisfied. She was the contact person who brought them together, but why was she kicked away as soon as the two met? However, in front of her grandmother, she didn't say much.

"Sir..." The maid wanted to say something, but was stopped by Uzumaki Mito who shook her head.

You know, Hanyu just caused the Jinchuriki to go berserk recently, and Uzumaki Mito is the Jinchuriki, so normally the two of them cannot come into contact alone.

However, this worry is a bit unnecessary. Although Uzumaki Mito is retired, Hanyu now has no problem defeating ten people alone.

Thus, only Hanyu and Uzumaki Mito were left in the room.

"Hanyu, I heard that you have become a Jonin?" Then, Uzumaki Mito said this.

Just like just now, when she called out Hanyu's name, it was not abrupt at all, but very natural, just like a familiar elder.

With a correct but not serious attitude and a gentle but not intimate tone, Uzumaki Mito gives people the first impression of being an honest elder.

"Yes, Mito-sama, I just recently received a promotion."

Hanyu didn't know whether to call Uzumaki Mito "Uzumaki" or "Senju", so he just called her "Mito-sama"... This was not abrupt, as many people in Konoha called her that.

Uzumaki Mito gestured to Hanyu to sit down, but in front of such an important person, Hanyu decided to follow basic courtesy and stand when he should.

"You're good. I've heard about your recent performance. You're very good, which means..." Having said this, Uzumaki Mito suddenly stopped talking and shook his head.

This means Sansho was not wrong about the person...but this sentence only speaks for itself. It is too cruel to ask an old man to say the name of his deceased daughter.

"You told Tsunade that you wanted to see me. Is there something wrong?"

Uzumaki Mito shook off the emotion he almost fell into and got back to the point.

Hanyu cheered up and said what he had prepared long ago, "Yes, Lord Mito, what I want to say is...

About the Nine-Tailed Fox."
