So You are Aoba!

"You want me to be the messenger?" Teuchi suddenly couldn't keep up with Aoba's train of thought.

"No."

Aoba shook his head again and tapped his fingers on the table. "It's not you; it's your shop. I want your shop to be the relay station for me to deliver the message. When I come to eat noodles, I will put the message here. When others eat noodles, they will take the message away. At most, you can be considered a... caretaker!"

"I see. Then I understand. As long as the number of times is not too many and it does not affect my normal business, there is no problem." Teuchi immediately understood. It was just temporary safekeeping, so it was not that difficult.

"Then it's a deal!"

A satisfied smile appeared on Aoba's face. He knew that Teuchi would live for a long time, and Ramen Ichiraku would not have any problems.

This shop.

When he faces some situations in the future, it might play a crucial role.

Let's first lay down this matter. It would be best if nothing happened, and even if there was, there would be a contingency plan.

"Big Brother Teuchi."

"Now, let me tell you about the membership card."

"I calculated this based on Minato's condition."

"Of course."

"It also has something to do with my previous credit."

Aoba scratched his head and showed an embarrassed look. This was to let Teuchi believe his words.

"I have summed up a few points from here."

"First, there may be many people like Minato in the village. They don't have any pocket money on hand, so when they pass by the door, they smell the fragrance of noodles and have no money to eat. This will also make you miss some opportunities to make money."

"Second, there may be situations like the last time we ate noodles and forgot to bring money. Then the credit can be accepted once or twice. After a long time, wouldn't everyone be like this? That way, not only will it be troublesome for you to remember the bill, but it will also be more troublesome to ask for money. In the end, some people might even eat without paying."

"Third, in fact, many people don't have much resistance when facing a discount."

"Based on the above three points."

"I thought of the pattern of membership cards."

"We can ask the customer to make any advance payment to apply for a membership card. We can give the money to you before we eat noodles."

"This will greatly solve the problem of insufficient money and avoiding a free meal."

"Correspondingly..."

"We can provide some preferential measures."

"For example, when the storage value reaches a certain amount, the consumption will be 10% off, and the higher the amount, the consumption will be 20% off..."

"In this way."

"We can let the people in the village pay first and then eat noodles. After each meal, you can just cut off a sum on their bill."

Aoba boasted and brought over the concept of a modern society membership card.

According to the memories of Konohagakure's residents that he had read. There were still many strict wives.

In addition, these wives were very interested in the discount.

This also made Aoba choose to introduce the discount on the storage value instead of giving it away.

"Good idea!"

Teuchi patiently listened to Aoba's words and directly slammed the table.

He didn't have that kind of creative talent.

So if you let him think of a plan, he couldn't think of a plan.

But when he heard the plan that Aoba said, he immediately judged that it was a very suitable plan.

If it were used correctly.

It would definitely allow Ramen Ichiraku to occupy a favorable business opportunity among Konohagakure.

Moreover, it would also cause other merchants to follow suit.

"I have already finished explaining the concept of membership cards. As for the specifics, you decide it yourself. Now, the value of this money will be under the name of my membership card. Every time Minato comes to eat noodles, it will be deducted from my account."

Aoba said with a smile.

"No problem!"

Teuchi gave Aoba a thumbs-up and said, "I'll give you the biggest discount."

"Brother Teuchi, don't spill the beans. You and I are the only ones who should know about my membership card. Even if Minato pretends to ask, you have to cooperate with him to complete the performance." Aoba said.

"Hahaha, Aoba, don't worry. I am trustworthy!"

Teuchi winked at Aoba and said. He secretly muttered in his heart, "These young people are quite good at playing now, and they are so good at hiding money."

However...

This membership card was really feasible!

In this way, how many people in the village would save the money for their private accounts?

Teuchi had already begun to have a wonderful imagination.

"Brother Teuchi, take your time. I'll go first."

Aoba waved at Teuchi, then stood up and left Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House.

This membership card.

He deliberately mentioned it because this time, he got some money from Yuta's house. It would be for the best if he could live a quiet life in the future.

However.

If anyone disturbed his silence again. He did not mind saving the other party's money into Ramen Ichiraku's membership card.

Wasn't this Konoha version of money laundering?

It was precisely because of the incident with Yuta that Aoba realized that there were some things that he couldn't avoid even if he wanted to.

He didn't like trouble. But there were times when trouble would come knocking on his door. Then he had to arrange a way out for himself in order to deal with all kinds of possible dangers.

After Aoba came out from Ramen Ichiraku Noodle House, he directly walked in the direction of Anbu's dormitory.

He was going back to sleep.

In the next few days, there would be a storm that would engulf Konohagakure.

Danzo was very angry, and the consequences were very serious.

He wanted to avoid it a little, but he didn't want to be caught again.

A few minutes later.

There was no abnormality in Aoba's figure as he strolled along the streets. He still maintained the same pace.

But...

He had a very clear feeling that someone was staring at him.

So Aoba suddenly turned to the left at the intersection in front of him. Instead of returning to Anbu's dormitory, he turned and walked towards the small forest.

There were few people in the direction of the small forest.

This way, he could be sure whether someone was really following him or inadvertently watching him.

He had just taken a few steps after turning the corner. The feeling of being watched appeared again.

"As expected."

Aoba lowered his head, the corners of his mouth curling up into an imperceptible arc, his eyes flashing with cold killing intent.

He maintained the frequency of his steps and directly walked into the small forest.

The feeling of being watched continued to exist and did not disappear because he entered the small forest.

Aoba walked into the small forest. The deeper he went, the sense of gaze did not disappear, but the other party never appeared.

Since the other party did not appear, he did not stop. Let's see who can remain calm.

Gradually.

More than ten minutes passed.

Whoosh!

Suddenly, a figure flashed out and stood in front of Aoba. His expression was slightly ferocious.

"So you are Aoba!"

The person following Aoba was Takashi, who he had met before that sold the candied haws. A member of the remnants of the old era.

"Where is Yuta-sama?"

Takashi asked in a questioning tone. His voice seemed to be squeezed out from between his teeth, containing deep anger.

He knew that Yuta had gone to look for Aoba. However, he did not know who Aoba was.

Only after Yuta had gone missing, he find Aoba through some information and find out that the person had bought the candied haws that day.

At that moment, he immediately realized that something was wrong with Aoba.

"Are you looking for Captain Yuta?"

Aoba looked at Takashi meaningfully, and the corners of his mouth curled up, revealing a smile.

"You asked the right person, and I just happen to know where he is. Come with me..."
