Konoha: Reforge the glory of Uchiha! - Chapter 80
c80 Uzumaki Mito, you don’t look good, do you want to see a doctor?
Futures trading hall
“It’s falling again”
“It’s been falling for three consecutive days”
“Brothers, I can’t hold on any longer, I’m going to run first”
“.”
There are still as many people in the hall as usual, but the atmosphere has become extremely depressing.
The real big dealers, Konoha and Daimyo, have almost withdrawn their funds. The slow increase in the past is the last afterglow of this wave of pig iron futures.
Big house room
Kakuzu’s dark green pupils looked at the three consecutive days of green losses, and he was extremely anxious.
The current pig iron price has returned to the price when White Fang gave his last speech. It was on that day that Kakuzu bet all his remaining money.
If he stops the loss in time now, Kakuzu will still make a lot of money, but Kakuzu is not willing to give up!
Kakuzu used his intelligence channels to clearly inquire about the landing of the Land of Fire in the Hidden Mist Village and the exchange of fire with Konoha. There are even rumors that the Hidden Mist Village has gone north to attack the Hidden Rock Village.
For this gossip, Kakuzu just smiled slightly, fake news!
The port where Kirigakure can land is half of the Land of Fire away from Iwagakure’s troops. It’s too far-fetched, and Kakuzu didn’t take it seriously.
There are too many true and false news about war.
But the news that the situation of the Ninja World War is expanding is true. Konoha, Iwagakure, and Kirigakure have all participated in the war. It is not impossible that Sand Village and Kumogakure will participate in the war again in the future.
Logically speaking, the price of pig iron continues to rise, and it doesn’t make sense to fall for three consecutive days!
There must be something fishy about this!
Kakuzu has reason to suspect that this decline is an organized market crash by futures buyers. They want to crash the market and then buy at the bottom!
I won’t be fooled!
Hold your own chips and wait quietly for the opportunity to soar. It’s a leek behavior to run away at this time.
Kakuzu comforted himself in his heart, his eyes drifted to the room where White Fang was, and he could vaguely see that White Fang was still sitting in a chair reading a book leisurely.
Master White Fang didn’t panic, so what reason did he have to worry about?
White Fang, the spiritual pillar of the leeks, had not spoken yet. The leeks in the first floor hall basically wanted to run but did not dare to run, waiting for White Fang to come out and give them instructions.
Three or four days later, the nobles and big businessmen of the Land of Fire still got the latest news from the battlefield of the Ninja World.
The Mizukage and the Tsuchikage perished together. After the fight between the Rock and Mist Hidden Army, they began to evacuate the battlefield on a large scale. The Ninja Army of Konoha was unstoppable and beat the fallen dogs, recovering the lost territory along the way!
This war, which is likely to sweep the entire Ninja World again, died down in less than two months.
This war was over just like that!
The insects were so scared by the news that they held a meeting overnight, and there was only one core!
Please exit in an orderly manner. If you sell futures together, the entire market will be smashed by them.
In the meeting, they argued and cursed each other. Everyone wanted to take the first batch of profits. The insects had added a lot of positions at the high point. Now they can still make a little money if they run away. If the news is passed to that group of unruly people, they will not be able to run away even if they want to.
The nobles have power, and they can slowly recover their money if they lose it. Merchants are miserable. They are engaged in physical transactions. The chain reaction of a cash flow interruption may cause them to go bankrupt.
However, it was too late. While they were arguing, Konoha’s last bit of funds was withdrawn. Uchiha Nan issued an order to start frantically promoting the news of Konoha’s victory in the Land of Fire. The First Ninja World War was over.
The Tsuchikage and Mizukage died together.
The Hokage is about to convene a meeting of the Five Kages to discuss how to build a new structure for the post-war Ninja World.
Various news were wildly promoted in the Land of Fire. The futures hall was all Konoha’s property. Such news was naturally the fastest to reach the ears of the leeks.
While the insects were still arguing, the price of pig iron futures began to plummet at an incredible price, suffocating them directly.
A green falling curve pierced the eyes of the leeks, and they rushed to the trading window frantically to sell the futures in their hands, but unfortunately there were only selling orders in the market, and no buying orders.
The leeks can only lower and modify the price again and again, but the more they do this, the harder it is to sell.
The panic has spread throughout the market. In just two days, the price is close to the initial starting point, and the price of pig iron is 630,000 taels/ton.
The price that has skyrocketed for more than a month has returned to its original state in just two days, as if it were a dream.
The cries, curses, and regrets resounded throughout the futures hall. Fortunately, Uchiha Nan had already prepared to send a large number of Konoha ninjas and soldiers under the daimyo to jointly suppress the riots.
However, Uchiha Nan could only maintain the stability of the futures hall, and he could not control anything outside the futures hall.
The magnificent scenery of the flying man swept across the Fire Country like a whirlwind. In the capital of the Fire Country alone, hundreds of people jumped off the building and committed suicide every day. They were all real gamblers, who were crazy enough to mortgage their property, and some even borrowed usury.
For these people, Uchiha Nan can only say a good death!
Big room
Jiaodu hadn’t slept for two days and two nights, his eyes were bloodshot, and he was leaning on the sofa limply, looking like he had been played to pieces.
“It’s over, it’s all over.”
“All my savings over the years are gone.”
Kakuzu felt that his five hearts were dead. The bounties he had earned by doing tasks diligently for more than ten years in the wind and rain, all turned into bubbles and disappeared.
“Pa pa pa”
Kakuzu slapped himself hard several times, trying to wake himself up. There were a bunch of futures cards on the table. Kakuzu loved them in the past, but now he hated them.
The current pig iron price is still falling. There is no buying order at all, only selling orders. No one knows when it will fall.
Futures cannot be sold. For Kakuzu, they are just a pile of waste cards. It’s too hard to wipe his ass.
Kakuzu stared at Baiya’s desperate dead fish eyes and subconsciously glanced at Baiya’s room again.
Master Baiya was still reading there!
The plummeting prices in two days directly made Kakuzu’s brain crash. He even forgot that Baiya was still in the big room next to him.
Could there be a turnaround?
A spark ignited in Kakuzu’s heart, which was already filled with ashes. His body was extremely weak after two days of hunger. The double torture of spirit and body made Kakuzu stand up staggeringly, intending to go to White Fang’s room to find out what was going on.
“Pah.”
Kakuzu pushed open the door, and there was only a puppet who looked like White Fang sitting there with a book in the room. White Fang had already run away two days ago. If he stayed here, it would be unless White Fang wanted to die.
“Leeks, remember the last sentence.”
“You won’t lose if you don’t sell it, smiley face”
A piece of white paper was pasted on the puppet’s face. The sarcastic words and the smiling face instantly broke Kakuzu’s psychological defense.
Damn, White Fang is in cahoots with the dealer behind the scenes!
Despair, unwillingness. All of them were vented out and turned into anger.
“White Fang, I, Kakuzu, will never stop fighting you in this life.”
Kakuzu roared to vent his anger, vowing to break White Fang into pieces. The roar spread throughout the futures hall. The name White Fang attracted the attention of the leeks downstairs, and they all went upstairs to find out.
At this moment, Hatake Sakumo has returned to Konoha. Hatake Sakumo, who was happily counting money at home, shuddered all over, and felt a malicious mark on him.
This time, Hatake Sakumo earned almost a small goal. If he saved a little, he would not have to worry about food and drink in this life. “Sure enough, I shouldn’t have left that note. Lord Hokage is really too bad.”
“Killing people and destroying their hearts is so terrible!”
Hatake Sakumo has put on a mask at this moment, and swears that he will never take it off in this life!
Hokage’s Office
“Hokage, you are indeed far-sighted. My admiration for you is like a surging river, endless!”
Nara Shikato’s smile narrowed his eyes into a slit, and he blew rainbow farts at Uchiha Nan. This time, the futures plan can no longer be described as profitable, but a huge profit.
“It’s like a river flooding, and it’s out of control.”
Hinata Takuma took over the conversation in time, and flattered Uchiha Nan again as if he was praising him.
“Luyuan, Takuma, you are too polite. This is just a display of my insignificant ability.”
Uchiha Nan was symbolically modest. He was very happy with the rainbow farts of Nara Shikato and Hinata Takuma. Who doesn’t like to hear flattery, not to mention that the profit this time is too rich.
“You two have made great contributions to this futures plan. The organization will not forget your contributions!”
“You two are my Crouching Dragon and Phoenix.”
“Hahahaha.”
“You are too polite, Hokage-sama, hahahaha.”
“.”
The atmosphere in Uchiha Nan’s office was warm, and the three people laughed heartily in the room.
Suddenly the door was opened, and an uninvited guest broke the happy atmosphere.
“Nara Shikato, Hyuga Takuma, you two are finally back!”
Uzumaki Mito pushed the door open aggressively. Since Uchiha Nan sent them to the Land of Fire to implement that shitty futures plan, it was as if they had evaporated from the face of the earth. They were all in single contact with Uchiha Nan, and other people could not find them at all.
For this shitty futures plan, Uchiha Nan directly transferred 10 billion funds, relying entirely on the power of the Hokage to act on his own.
Now that the war is over, the results of the futures plan should be made public. As soon as Nara Shikato and Hinata Takuma came back, Uzumaki Mito couldn’t wait to block the door.
“Uchiha Nan, you spent 10 billion on the pig iron futures, and now you should give an explanation.”
Uzumaki Mito directly attacked Uchiha Nan. She didn’t think highly of Uchiha Nan’s plan.
Ninjas should do ninja things!
“So it’s Mito-sama who’s here. You’re here at the right time. You should give an explanation to the ninjas of Konoha!”
Uchiha Nan couldn’t hold back the smile on his face. He couldn’t wait to use the money to slap Uzumaki Mito in the face.
How can such a few people witness the slap in the face? A meeting must be held. All the ninjas of Konoha must come and witness it together!
Not long after. Meeting room
All the ninjas of Konoha gathered together. The Hokage said that there was something important to announce today. The results of the previous pig iron futures plan had come out.
I heard from Lord Uzumaki Mito that a full 10 billion yen was spent, which is equivalent to squandering all the hard-earned money of the ninja clan. I don’t know what the result will be.
The ninjas of Konoha are so poor that they have to sell their ancestral property. They had thought about getting the funds from the Land of Fire to make up for their losses, but they were forced to give back to Konoha by Uchiha Nan.
Konoha has fought another war in the past month, and it was a high-intensity war of attrition. Not only did a group of ninjas die, but they also spent a lot of money.
If this damn futures plan not only does not make money but also loses money, then Uchiha Nan should not be the Hokage. They will join forces with the Senju clan to drag Uchiha Nan down from the position of Hokage and replace him with a reliable Hokage who can represent the interests of the ninjas.
“Uchiha Nan, stop talking nonsense and just announce the results directly.”
Uzumaki Mito sat on the chair, sneering at the formalism of Uchiha Nan. He could have told her the results directly, but he had to hold a meeting to announce the results.
It seems that he should make money. Uzumaki Mito has a guess in his heart, but how much money can a small futures business make?
Konoha doesn’t have those big iron mines, and those merchants won’t give the profits to Konoha for nothing. At most, they will give a few hundred million taels for the sake of Konoha’s strong strength.
It’s better to spend the money on ninjas and reduce the casualties of Konoha ninjas than to make such a small profit with so much capital.
“Since Lord Mito is so anxious, let’s get straight to the point!”
“Da Congming, tell her how much money we made this time!”
Uchiha Nan crossed his legs wantonly and gave Nara Shikayuan a wink, asking him to read out the profits to the group of ninjas.
“Yes, Lord Hokage.”
Nara Shikayuan suddenly felt a little depressed. He just called himself Wolong, why did he change to Da Congming this time? Although it was simple and straightforward, Nara Shikayuan always felt that this name was wrong. It was better to call him Wolong. He would have to give his opinion to Lord Hokage one day.
“This time, Konoha invested 10 billion taels in the futures plan, the Hyuga clan invested 300 million taels, the Ino-Shika-Chou clan invested 500 million taels, and the Uchiha clan invested 1 billion taels.”
Nara Shikayuan’s words were not finished yet, and the ninjas present were amazed. Uchiha Nan not only invested Konoha’s money in the futures plan, but also invited the Hyuga clan, Ino-Shika-Chou clan and the Ino-Shika-Chou clan to invest together.
Now the ninjas are very poor. I’m afraid these families have already invested in Uchiha Nan, and they are not afraid of losing all their wealth.
“Konoha’s profit this time is more than 100.5 billion taels, and the net profit after deducting the cost is more than 90.5 billion taels. The Hyuga clan’s profit is more than 1.5 billion taels, and the Ino-Shika-Chou clan’s profit after deducting the cost is more than 2.5 billion taels. The Uchiha clan’s profit is more than 10.2 billion taels.”
Nara Shikayuan kept muttering about the profit, and the exaggerated profit made all the ninjas numb.
Profit, profit
Is this futures so profitable?
We didn’t get on the bus, we didn’t get on the bus! !
Uzumaki Mito was also shocked by this exaggerated number and was speechless. She seriously suspected that Uchiha Nan took 10 billion taels as funds and sent Konoha’s ninjas to rob the nobles and big merchants of the Land of Fire.
Otherwise, how could a mere futures contract make so much money?
Uzumaki Mito’s suspicion was not wrong. Uchiha Nan did rob the money of these insects,
but he changed to a more gentle way.
However, although this amount of money was painful for the insects, it was not enough to break their bones after sharing it among the families. The insects had been greedy for so many years, and their family assets were still very solid. What’s more, the gamblers, wandering ninjas, and bounty hunters of the Land of Fire also shared nearly a quarter of it.
Uzumaki Mito thought of the Senju clan, which was still very poor. If he had supported Uchiha Nan, the Senju clan would have joined him. His thoughts drifted away, and he even thought about the long term.
So Uzumaki Mito looked bitter.
“Mito-sama, are you feeling unwell?”
“Do you want to ask the family’s medical ninja to take a look?”
Faced with Uchiha Nan’s malicious ridicule, Uzumaki Mito’s face darkened.
