c76 Kakuzu: You are all leeks!! (6k subscription)
Futures Hall
“Doubled?”
“Isn’t there going to be a war?”
“Give way, if you don’t want to buy, don’t stand around here, ten thousand taels of stud!”
“.”
Just overnight, the futures hall became like a vegetable market. Not only did it become extremely noisy, the futures hall was also crowded with people.
Uchiha Kusu and the Fire Country Daimyo joined forces to pull the market, doubling the price of pig iron in one night, and the enthusiasm for the futures market was ignited overnight.
In the past, if you wanted to hoard pig iron for profit, only those nobles and big businessmen with large funds were qualified to get involved in this business.
But things are different now. Because of the appearance of Uchiha Nan, the threshold for pig iron speculation has been broken. Even roadside vendors with some savings can play with their income for a month or two.
The assets of the first group of people to take advantage of the situation have doubled. Word of the news has spread, and people from all walks of life have developed a strong interest in pig iron futures.
“How could this happen? It grows so fast!”
Kakuzu looked at the rapidly rising price of pig iron, and the red rising portion simply made Kakuzu crazy with envy.
White Fang’s assets have increased from more than ten million to more than twenty million taels. It’s a pity that Mr. White Fang has hidden his account and cannot see the increase in his income with his own eyes.
However, just by imagining, Kakuzu could already imagine how rich Master White Fang’s income would be.
The money he earned in one damn night could allow Kakuzu to do ordinary bounty missions for several months.
Want to take action?
Kakuzu’s hands were shaking slightly, and his heart was beating thumpingly. He had only read the secret book given by White Fang for a short time, and he had not yet understood it well enough to practice it.
What should I do if I lose money if I make such a rash move?
This old-school ninja who can be traced back to the Senju Hashirama era is struggling in his heart. Traditional thinking is still constraining him, and he still maintains doubts and distrust in the face of such emerging things.
The price of pig iron is slowly rising every minute and every second. People around me have rushed to throw money into it without even understanding what futures are, and now they are starting to make profits.
Kakuzu sneered at this kind of people. The Master White Fang book described this kind of people in detail and used a vivid word to describe them.
Chinese chives!
They are like leeks that will be cut off again and again.
Kakuzu watched as more and more people around him entered the futures market with red eyes. The number of leeks that entered the market yesterday had doubled.
Now that these leeks have made money, I am still hesitant here!
It’s time to take action, you can buy a little less first and try your hand at it!
“I want to buy one hundred thousand taels!”
Kakuzu left his seat, squeezed through the people who were still in line, and directly chose to jump in line!
queue?
If you wait a second longer, the cost of buying futures will increase. There is still a queue. The person who was cut in line was about to curse at Jiaodu, but was frightened back by Jiaodu’s look.
“Yes sir.”
The procedure was completed in a minute or two, and a beautiful card was exchanged into Kakuzu’s hand.
When my fingers touched the card, there was a special touch, which felt strangely comfortable.
A moment after Kakuzu got the card, his heart beat inexplicably faster, as if he had returned to the day he first became a ninja, and a strange feeling of fear suddenly appeared.
You won’t just enter the market and the price will fall.
Kakuzu subconsciously looked up at the price of pig iron, which was still rising slowly.
call.
Kakuzu relaxed slightly and returned to his original seat. Kakuzu, who had originally planned to continue performing the bounty mission, was no longer in the mood to work at this moment.
I have been worried about the price of pig iron.
For the whole afternoon, Kakuzu did nothing, his dark green eyes just staring at the slowly rising prices.
One afternoon passed, and the price of pig iron increased by three levels. Even Uchiha Nan would be stunned when he saw this price. The price increase rate has exceeded Uchiha Nan’s control.
Uchiha Kusu originally only wanted to cut off the money of big nobles and big businessmen, but now even ordinary people are getting involved, which is beyond Uchiha Kusu’s expectation.
Half a day passed
“Cuckoo”
Kakuzu’s stomach began to protest. Although Kakuzu’s body had been transformed by Ji Yu, he still had to eat on time every day.
The dusk sun shone on Kakuzu’s face, and he couldn’t help but sigh at how fast time had passed. Recalling the price at which he bought it, the price had actually risen three levels!
Thirty thousand taels?
Earn money so easily!
Master White Fang said in his book that making money is as easy as breathing, so this is what it means!
I am still shallow. I didn’t take it seriously when I first saw this sentence. Now that I have experienced this feeling, I understand the subtlety of it.
It was such a joy.
Hi!
Why didn’t I buy more?
A wave of regret surged into Kakuzu’s heart, and he silently calculated in his mind that if he had bought it for one million, his current profit would be three hundred thousand.
If it’s 10 million, the income is 3 million, 100 million is 30 million, and 1 billion is 300 million!
Kakuzu has been working as a bounty hunter for more than ten years. Working day and night, he can earn close to 50 million yuan a year. If he is lucky, he can kill the big deals on the bounty list that easily cost tens of millions of taels. It is not impossible to make 100 million a year.
A mere 1 billion, Kakuzu could still come up with it if he gritted his teeth, but it was almost all of Kakuzu’s wealth.
If he had just played all-in, he would have made 300 million. Kakuzu’s heart was pounding. 300 million in one afternoon?
What a terrible speed of making money!
But this was just Kakuzu’s fantasy. He couldn’t try something new and throw all his wealth into it. If he made money, everyone would be happy.
If he lost money, Kakuzu would be so angry that he would explode himself.
Kakuzu shook his head, put aside these unrealistic fantasies, and planned to go out for dinner. It was worth celebrating that he could easily make 30,000 ryo.
Being a bounty hunter also requires hard work to travel and collect intelligence. This is not an easy job, not to mention that there is a risk of life.
Extra meal, must be extra meal!
Kakuzu decided to reward himself. Usually, he would eat a dozen rice balls for a meal. Anyway, it was just to replenish energy, and Kakuzu didn’t care about the taste at all.
Besides, the rice balls tasted very good. When fighting and traveling, they were eating soldier ration balls. The taste was hard to describe, dry and a little bitter.
I can make an exception today and order a bowl of miso soup for myself. Kakuzu thought so and stepped out of the door of the trading hall.
Not long after Kakuzu left the trading hall, the price of pig iron began to rise again at an incredible speed!
Although the information channels of those nobles and businessmen were not as good as those of the ninja village, they still reacted quickly.
The inexplicable rise in the price of pig iron made them feel very strange, but they were a group of people who didn’t see the rabbit and didn’t release the eagle, so they didn’t act rashly.
When the news that Konoha’s younger brother Uzumaki clan raided the Hidden Mist Village reached them, they acted in a hurry.
Konoha and the Uzumaki clan had a good relationship as if they were wearing a pair of pants. The Uzumaki clan raiding the Hidden Mist Village and Konoha raiding the Hidden Mist Village were the same in the eyes of the nobles.
It seems that Konoha couldn’t stand the loneliness after receiving the funds, and was ready to attack the Hidden Mist Village!
This is another fierce battle!
The nobles of the Land of Fire who deal in pig iron are really happy to hear about the war. Anyway, they don’t have to go to the battlefield, and those annoying ninjas will die. They are so happy!
This time, they can make a lot of money in the ninja war again.
It’s just a pity.
The timing of buying pig iron at the bottom is late, the price has been hyped up, and they have lost a lot of money. The nobles are regretful.
Considering the recent series of measures on pig iron in the Land of Fire, someone must be behind all this!
The answer is obvious, the bastard Daimyo is eating alone behind their backs!
As for Konoha, they didn’t think in this direction at all. How could these ninjas who only know how to perform tasks in exchange for bounties have the mind to get involved in the pig iron business.
Konoha is just a white glove of the Daimyo, but considering Konoha’s extraordinary military strength, these nobles don’t have the courage to settle accounts with Konoha.
The nobles have been immersed in the business of hype for a long time, and they know the secret of hype very well, that is the fastest and most accurate news!
In this regard, they are far inferior to the daimyo. The daimyo has the news channels of Konoha, and the ninjas want to dig out news in every possible way, while they are just a group of ordinary people.
Go find the daimyo!
The nobles who have a good relationship instigated an important boss in the Land of Fire, the Minister of Finance who was spit on by Uchiha Nan.
Although the Minister of Finance is nothing in front of Uchiha Nan, he has a lot of weight in the power game of the Land of Fire!
Every penny of the money collected by these insects must be paid to the upper levels. The Minister of Finance, who usually receives a lot of benefits, is naturally obliged to represent the interests of the insects and negotiate with the daimyo at this time.
Daimyo, your eating is really ugly!
Fire Country Palace
After the Minister of Finance stuffed a thick red envelope into the attendant, the attendant, who was originally indifferent, immediately became beaming and eager to pass on the Minister of Finance’s message.
Before half a cup of tea, the attendant came out of the Daimyo’s room.
“Sir, the Daimyo is not feeling well and cannot come to see you.”
“I have something important to do.”
“Please go back!”
Before the Minister of Finance finished speaking, the attendant interrupted the Minister of Finance directly.
The Daimyo’s attitude was very firm. This business was not led by him, but by Konoha. He was just making a profit from it. This time, he was cutting off these insects.
On weekdays, they all cried poor in front of him, and their family’s land was increasing day by day, and they didn’t pay taxes one by one. That was fine.
It was a common practice for the nobles not to pay taxes on their land, and they dared to tamper with the accounts of the treasury. This simply touched the bottom line of the daimyo. However, these insects were united and deceived the superiors and subordinates in various ways to hide the truth from him.
Now you want to ask for help?
It’s too late!
“What’s the situation?”
“What did the daimyo say?”
“.” As soon as the Minister of Finance returned home, the insects could not wait to surround him and inquire about the information.
They all took the initiative to ask for help, the daimyo would not even give them a chance to talk.
The pig iron business is such a big business, you can’t eat all the meat, let them only eat the scraps, bones, and drink some soup at the end.
We can all work together. Anyway, it’s all the money of the ninjas. We can let the daimyo get more this time.
Everyone’s expectant eyes were focused on the face of the Minister of Finance. The Minister of Finance could only smile helplessly and shook his head. The daimyo was determined to eat alone this time and really intended to let them eat some leftovers.
Others are the butchers and I am the fish. The channels have been monopolized. Now they have no room for resistance.
“.”
“It’s all your fault. You shouldn’t have listened to those ninjas. Speeding up the circulation of pig iron and making prices transparent are all nonsense.”
“The Daimyo is waiting for us here!”
“You’re blaming me. I nodded when I saw you all agreed.”
“Why didn’t you say anything to resist?”
“Tsk, why don’t you resist? Aren’t you afraid that a shuriken will stab you in the head in the middle of the night?”
“.”
The insects immediately began to be incompetent and furious, and attacked each other directly. Their high positions did not mean that their talents were better than ordinary people, but more.
After attacking each other for a while, they began to condemn the Daimyo for being a bad person. It was obviously a domestic matter of the Land of Fire, but the ninjas had to intervene!
Government affairs belong to government affairs, and military affairs belong to military affairs.
In the ninja world, the separation of military and political affairs is very thorough, and they are already two systems. This is also the reason why these insects are unscrupulous in deceiving their superiors and subordinates.
The daimyo didn’t dare to let the ninjas interfere in government affairs. What if a genius among them discovered how interesting it was to handle government affairs? It would be a lot of fun to make money by just changing hands. This is much faster than making money by completing tasks.
The rules of the ancestors for thousands of years are likely to be broken. In order to trap this group of ninjas, the ancestors spent a lot of money and thought to get this done with difficulty.
Letting ninjas interfere in government affairs is like inviting wolves into the house. If Uchiha Nan made suggestions to the daimyo and disliked the fact that the court was full of insects who were just sitting there doing nothing, he could help the daimyo replace a group of capable ministers.
The daimyo didn’t have to worry about being accused of killing ministers without authorization.
Konoha would arrange the evidence properly. With a magic trick, they would be guaranteed to confess clearly and all the dirty things they had done in three lifetimes would be vomited out.
Then the daimyo would immediately swear that all his ministers were incorruptible, without any corruption, and that the Hokage would not worry about it.
However, this time he played a marginal ball. Uchiha Nan just wanted to do some small business and make some money. He also understood the current rules of the game in the ninja world. Before doing this, he specially asked for the daimyo’s opinion.
The daimyo naturally agreed to make money from this group of insects.
The insects quarreled for a long time and found that there were fewer and fewer people. The smart people in the middle had already sneaked out.
Things can’t be reversed, so just accept the facts and quickly send people to the futures hall to buy. Although the current price is not the lowest price, the profit is still considerable.
Stay here to quarrel, and you can only eat some minced meat in the end.
“Miso soup is so delicious”
Kakuzu smacked his lips, savoring the taste of miso soup.
The last time I drank miso soup seemed to be a few months ago. I ordered a bowl of miso soup in a restaurant to get closer to the mission target. I drank it for a long time before I got there.
At that time, I was so focused on completing the mission that I didn’t even taste the miso soup carefully. Now I think it’s a pity
Kakuzu pushed open the door of the trading hall. It was obviously night, but the lights were still bright. The atmosphere was more lively than when I left in the afternoon, and there were more people than in the afternoon.
Originally, Kakuzu could find a seat in the trading hall, but now it has become crowded, and there are long queues at each trading window.
The shouts and curses of those waiting in line are endless.
Kakuzu pushed open the people who had been squeezed to the door with difficulty. Before he could figure out the situation, how could there be so many more people in the trading hall suddenly.
The first thing he did when he came in was to take a look at the pig iron price. The moment he saw the pig iron price, Kakuzu’s breathing became rapid, his dark green pupils shrank, and he couldn’t believe his eyes.
Kakuzu’s mouth opened subconsciously, and his hands trembled slightly unconsciously.
Did I see the price wrong?
Kakuzu rubbed his eyes with an expression of disbelief, thinking that he was dazzled. He hadn’t had miso soup for a long time. Could it be that mushrooms were put in the miso soup this time, which made him hallucinate?
I didn’t see it wrong.
The price of pig iron has risen again!
It’s not just one or two levels, it’s doubled again.
Then Master Baiya’s account has reached more than 40 million taels!
In just the time of eating, Master Baiya made another 20 million taels?
Making money is as easy as breathing!
This sentence popped up in Kakuzu’s mind again. Before, he thought he had understood this sentence, but now he found that he was still shallow.
It’s too small, his pattern is really too small.
Endless regrets surged in his heart. He wanted to increase his position before eating, why did he hesitate, why did he think about waiting a little longer?
He missed the opportunity to make a fortune again!
The price of pig iron has doubled again, so should he go up now?
The same question was once again placed in front of Kakuzu.
Leeks are always like this, hesitating and watching the price rise little by little, not daring to make a decisive move and just watching from the sidelines.
For the miser Kakuzu, every penny and every sum of money is his life-saving money. He belongs to Pixiu and can only get in and out. The psychological activities of Leek are now perfectly reflected in him.
“Give way.”
The person behind him pushed Kakuzu away, rushed to the end of the queue with a lot of money in his hand, eager to enter the venue and buy.
Kakuzu knew this person, wasn’t he the former owner of the weapons store, and he even started playing futures?
“It’s up again!”
“Hahaha, I just said that this futures can make money. Fortunately, I added another position this afternoon!”
“.”
The price keeps rising, and there are waves of cheering in the ears. They are the lucky ones who entered the market this afternoon. They happened to catch up with the large-scale buying of pig iron by the insects, which drove the price of pig iron to rise. Now they are cheering continuously.
It was their first time to enjoy the feeling of making money so easily, and they continued to celebrate the correct decision they made in the afternoon.
But these celebrations became extremely harsh in Kakuzu’s ears.
I was obviously the one who came first. Whether it was discovering futures or getting White Fang’s secret book, I was so far ahead of them. Why did they make more money faster than me?
This isn’t fair.
Kakuzu, who originally planned to look through the secret book to calm himself down before making a decision, began to have his inner defenses broken.
As ninjas, calmness and caution are their magic weapons to survive on the battlefield. The slightest mistake is fatal to ninjas and may cost them their lives.
Kakuzu naturally knows the truth of this very well. The same is true for Kakuzu making money. Decisions must be made with a clear head.
Kakuzu was currently in a state of uneasiness, with cheers of celebration in his ears and eyes constantly watching the rising price of pig iron, which made him unable to calm down at all.
Every minute and every second is suffering. Do you want to increase your position? What if the price falls after buying it? There is no war now. The price of pig iron has risen so high. This is very contrary to common sense.
The ninja’s intuition allowed Kakuzu to resist the idea of adding to the position.
Kakuzu left the trading hall and took a breath of fresh air. Materialism was rampant in the hall, and shouts and screams were endless. Only by getting rid of these external factors could Kakuzu feel at ease.
Think calmly.
Kakuzu recalled the content of Master White Fang’s secret book. What does that sentence say, I take what others abandon, and vice versa!
Everyone is dead, except me!
For a moment, Kakuzu seemed to have opened up the two channels of Ren and Du, and felt that he should do the opposite. The price of pig iron would inevitably fall, and he should sell it at this time!
There must be someone manipulating the market behind the scenes, trying to raise the price of pig iron and cut off the money from these leeks!
I, Kakuzu, have obtained the true secrets of Master White Fang, so I cannot be deceived at this time.
SELL!
Must sell in advance!
By the time it falls, it will be too late!
Kakuzu suddenly became impatient. Now he couldn’t delay for a moment. He had to go back and sell all the more than 200,000 futures in his hands!
With a thought, Kakuzu immediately returned to the door of the futures hall and eagerly opened the door.
The crowds, the roars of celebrations, and the impatient shouts and curses of people waiting in line are still heard.
Humph, these leeks!
Kakuzu watched the carnival of this group of leeks with cold eyes, pushed aside the people who were still queuing, and strode forward to the waiter’s window, but there was still no queue.
queue?
I will never wait in line in my life!
Time is money, what if the price suddenly drops while you are queuing up?
However, Kakuzu’s behavior immediately aroused public outrage. Everyone was queuing up, but you were still cutting in line.
But when Kakuzu once again showed his terrifying murderous intent, all the anger disappeared.
Kakuzu’s fist is so big!
“I want to sell!”
“Um?”
“Are you sure you want to sell?”
The service staff was a little suspicious of their ears. The price of pig iron has risen so much this afternoon, and it is still rising. Why should it be sold at this time?
“Yes, I want to sell!”
Kakuzu’s decisive voice made the people around him laugh, but everyone covered their mouths and did not dare to make a sound.
Kakuzu obviously noticed the suspicious glances nearby.
“What are you looking at? You bunch of leeks, if they fall, I won’t be able to kill you!”
Kakuzu took the money and shouted confidently at the people around him, then walked out of the trading floor.
These leeks don’t understand futures at all!
