Danzo: I'm Sorry, I Admit That I Spoke a Little Too Loud

13.7 billion ryos.

What rank of number is this?

D-rank tasks belong to the lowest rank, and everyone from the village chief to the civilians can issue commissions. The rewards for tasks range from 500 ryos to 10,000 ryos.

Because the mission difficulty is not high, the task difficulty is usually very low. Basically, they are tasks of taking care of children and finding cats and dogs.

– When Asuma lied to those high-ranking officials before, although the enemy he faced was of high status, but the difficulty... Most of the officials in the Land of Fire did not ascend to that position with intelligence.

Sometimes, reincarnation surpasses hard work.

So the ranking is also set to this.

C-rank missions are similar to D-rank missions, and anyone can issue them. The difficulty of the task is upgraded to escort people, but it is the kind without combat, or sending confidential documents, etc. The bounty ranges from 10,000 to 50,000 ryos.

B-rank missions are the same as CD-rank missions, and anyone can issue a commission, but the difficulty is upgraded.

The mission content is similar to C-rank, including escorting people and sending confidential documents, but it includes the detail of fighting hostile ninjas.

That's the battle between Naruto and Zabuza.

Although Naruto received a C-rank mission, he did not expect to be upgraded to a B-rank mission.

Of course, that is an exception, a rare case.

Generally speaking, the bounty ranges from 50,000 ryos to 150,000 ryos.

The announcement of an A-rank mission can only be made in the name of a country by a designated person. It's important to note that not all Kage personnel release these missions, but they must have the necessary authorization to do so.

The mission is mainly a request about the country's movements, that is to say, all the things the country assigns you to, big or small.

For example, the A-rank mission Naruto received was the mission of chasing Gaara in the Chunin test and recovering Sasuke when Sasuke defected.

The rewards for mission range from 150,000 ryos to 1 million ryos.

S-rank missions are missions related to state secrets, including war-related missions requested by other countries, the assassination of important people, and the stealing of confidential documents.

Of course, the rewards are also scary, all of which are above one million ryos.

For ordinary ninjas, getting one million ryos for a mission can already be said to be a fortune overnight.

But now, 13.7 billion ryos... Even if Jiraiya, who is best at doing tasks in Konoha, is bald, he can't earn so much – if Jiraiya only depends on the mission rewards, the total should be more than 600 million.

Of course, this guy has royalties.

But that's another story.

As a military organization, Konoha's high-level executives have also experienced it. It was not unheard of for them to have more money during the war years.

But it's made in less than a month, and a single dividend is more than 10 billion... one! One month!

Anyway, let alone the Sandaime, even Danzo is numb.

People of the older generation know that doing this business can make money – if the bank is likely to go bankrupt, you can lose money on tobacco? That's pretty impressive.

Apart from Canada, there is no such peerless genius in the world.

But earning so much at once is really...

Sandaime smoked dryly.

While he was happy, for a moment, he felt like a fool.

Why didn't he think of it earlier?

With this amount of money, not only Konoha's previous bad debts can be filled, but even the war against Kumo can be said to be surely stable – Kumo doesn't have this amount of money!

War, in a word, is money.

Konoha can do this because it is backed by the Land of Fire. And obviously, the important officials don't realize that this business can be so profitable.

It's surprising how much influence moths hold in the Land of Fire, surpassing even the expectations of the ninjas.

Now Konoha has forcibly opened up the joints, and all the brands of tobacco are shipped together. After they are integrated, the moths can no longer cover each other.

Only then did the real profits of the Land of Fire's tobacco industry come to light.

The officials will have some regrets if they knew that the tobacco industry is actually so profitable.

But Konoha really did a good job this time, Konoha took all the responsible, Konoha got through the matter, and also, Konoha said hello in advance, and only took 30% from beginning to end.

While the overall share of income may have decreased for some individuals, the actual income has increased significantly.

No matter from which point of view, there is no reason for the officials to turn their backs.

The fruit basket personally sent by Hokage is very sweet.

In short, if I'm doing well, then everyone is doing well.

But Kumo couldn't do that.

Because news from within the Land of Fire will surely spread to the Land of Lightning soon.

The situation in the Land of Lightning is similar to that of the Land of Fire, but if Kumo plans to do similar things, they will definitely be rejected by the officials in the Land of Lightning.

Although officials are aware of Kumo's strength and the benefits it brings, their primary focus is on their own interests, so they may not be able to address every issue that arises.

Konoha was caught off guard here, and Konoha stood firmly for a reason, and everyone who recognized it pinched the bridge of their nose.

So what if you're Kumo?

You can't see anything after a few months, but what about after a few years?

An army with a lot of money may not be able to fight, but an army without money will definitely not be able to fight.

Konoha is already strong, with this strength and weakness, Konoha's future will be much easier.

Thinking of this, Sandaime finally felt a little better.

Danzo also thought of these at the same time... and even thought more long-term.

So Danzo wore a deadpan.

"Danzo-san, you seem very unhappy? –

"Are you feeling unwell?"

Facing Makoto's malicious teasing, Danzo shook his head silently.

Days of anguish disappearing is indeed very pleasant.

But Makoto didn't forget the business.

He took the report, read it carefully, and then said to Kakashi.

"It's really refreshing good news, it's like putting on new underwear in the new year... Such good news, of course, has to be shared with everyone. –

"Spread the word and call everyone here."

Kakashi nodded, bowed, and left.

Danzo's expression became more and more unsightly.

Because he knew very well what Makoto was going to do next – divide up the spoils.

There were more than 10 billion in the first month, and there will definitely be more in the second month.

And it is foreseeable that this income will not decrease even during the war. It may even increase in reverse as the intensity of the war increases.

– The greater the stress, the more people need a distraction. During the time of war, tobacco and alcohol were really hard currencies among the people.

Such a huge income can not only cover all the vacancies, but is also bound to have a large surplus.

Although it is a very bad thing to say that, even in Konoha, whoever holds the financial power has the final saying.

Not to mention the Hokage faction, they will definitely receive financial support first.

As long as Makoto has a little bit of political literacy, he will share some of it with other clans and factions.

As for how to share the profits... It depends on whether they are sensible or not.

If you take too much, you are not a member of the Hokage faction, but a person who belonged to the Hokage faction.

Thinking of this, Danzo felt more and more helpless.

However, he has no reason to stop it at all - because everyone's money is from what Makoto fought for Konoha. Whoever opposes it will die in the stinky ditch with the seven shurikens stuck deep in his back.

Regarding Makoto's conspiracy, he was extremely helpless, but he couldn't stop it at all.

Of course, Makoto knew what Danzo was thinking, but he still asked worriedly.

"Danzo-san, your complexion is even uglier? Don't you really need to see a medical ninja?"

Danzo looked at Makoto, then at Sandaime, and finally forced a sentence out of his mouth.

"Yes, Hokage-sama! –

"I'll be off to see a medical ninja now!"

Danzo lowered his eyes and left Hokage's office silently.
