"I can tutor you tonight."
Kitazawa glanced at her and walked towards the courtyard where Kado lived.
Kurenai Yuhi was stunned for two seconds before she reacted.
She blushed slightly, spat, and then followed him.
Kado's guards had all been tied up and were now sitting in the courtyard.
Kitazawa glanced around but didn't see any familiar faces.
"Teacher Kitazawa!"
Yamanaka Ino, Inuzuka Kiba, and Tenten quickly came to his side.
"You did a good job."
Kitazawa praised, "To be able to defeat so many wandering ninjas and samurai with fewer troops."
"They're just too bad!"
Kiba Inuzuka said with a smug look on his face.
He was a little panicked when he was surrounded, but when the fight actually started, he found it very easy.
Just as he had guessed, most of them were genin, with only a few chunin, whose strength was also average.
"But you've fallen into a trap."
Kitazawa said with a smile, "When you get back to Konoha, go find Iruka and take the trap class again."
Kiba Inuzuka froze on the spot upon hearing this.
He subconsciously looked at Yamanaka Ino and Tenten.
But they all said they couldn't help.
"Where's Kado?"
Kitazawa got down to business and asked.
He's in the living room.
Suddenly, Yamanaka Ino remembered something, took out a document, and said, "This is the list of employees of his shipping company."
Kitazawa took the documents and went into the living room.
"You Konoha ninjas, if you know what's good for you, release me!"
Tied to a chair, Kado saw him but showed no fear, shouting, "I have the Land of Water behind me!"
Kitazawa ignored him, casually opened the book, and glanced at it a few times.
This shipping company in Cato is indeed large, with over a hundred employees.
"crow."
Kitazawa shouted.
An ANBU ninja wearing a crow mask appears.
Kitazawa didn't just bring Konan with him on this trip; he also brought a team of ANBU ninjas.
After all, it's a shipping company that needs to receive Cadogan shipping.
This ANBU ninja codenamed Crow was none other than the Uchiha Jonin who had just been recruited into the ANBU.
“Control him.”
Kitazawa commanded.
The crow immediately grabbed Kado's shoulder.
"mix……"
Kado wanted to curse, but he only managed to utter one word before his face went blank.
He has been controlled by the three-tomoe Sharingan.
“Now I will say it, and you will relay it to him.”
Kitazawa looked at Kado and said, "From now on, your shipping company will undergo reform."
His original plan was to kill Kado and find someone to replace him, but that approach was too complicated.
Ultimately, Kitazawa decided to take direct control of Gato and use his connections and shipping company to make money for Konoha.
Money is a good thing.
Even ninjas are not immune to the common customs.
Although the money would be temporarily useless once the Akatsuki launched the Eye of the Moon Project, Kitazawa was thinking about the future of Konoha.
He is the future Hokage, so the more money Konoha Village has, the better.
Of course, Kitazawa doesn't care about money and isn't interested in it.
After all, this ninja world values strength above all else, and he cares more about strength.
When one's personal strength is unmatched, one can have anything one desires.
However, before that, Kitazawa still has to follow the rules for the time being.
Kitazawa talked about the reforms at Cado Shipping Company, mainly focusing on three things.
This is also his purpose in controlling Gato and coming to the Land of Waves.
The first thing to do is to stop smuggling contraband.
Although Kitazawa is shameless, he still has his bottom line; there's no need to earn this kind of money.
The second thing is to establish a processing plant in the Land of Waves.
Mining in the ninja world is very crude; they basically just sell gold or silver ore directly.
For example, the Fourth Kazekage, Rasa, used Magnet Release to mine and sell gold.
But Kitazawa thought it was too wasteful.
After processing, they can be made into jewelry and other products and sold, which obviously earns more money.
You can also hire famous people to advertise and build a high-end brand.
As for the workers, they can be hired from the residents of the Land of Waves.
Kitazawa's approach was similar to Kado's, only more moderate.
In the original work, after Gato took over the shipping route of the Land of Waves, he was unwilling to give the local residents any money.
Finally, they could no longer tolerate it and called in the ninjas from Konoha Village, and Gato also lost his life.
However, Kitazawa has other plans for its high-end brand.
That is to hire ninjas from the Hyuga clan.
They have white eyes, which allows them to create jewelry with greater precision and beauty.
Sweeping across the ninja world and becoming the number one brand will not be a problem.
The third thing is to resume normal maritime shipping operations.
The Land of Waves is in a good location.
On the left is the Land of Fire, and on the right is the Land of Water, both with numerous ports and islands.
Now that Mei Terumi has become the new Mizukage, she plans to re-establish connections or trade with the surrounding ninja villages and countries.
Kitazawa was able to seize this opportunity, allowing Cado's shipping company to dominate the shipping business in the area.
Even if they only charge tolls and transportation fees, they can still make a fortune.
After Kitazawa finished speaking, the most shocked person was Konan.
She felt as if a new world had opened up before her, and everything became clear and bright.
Konan looked at Kitazawa, her curiosity growing.
After all, what he just said was too novel or even astonishing to her.
However, it was a bit late for the Akatsuki organization to try and replicate it.
In maritime transport, Kitazawa and Konoha have already gained an early advantage and have even signed a contract with Kirigakure.
Are there any other industries?
Of course, the most important thing is practical operation.
Kitazawa's explanation was rather brief.
Often, theory sounds one thing, but in practice it's quite another.
Xiao Nan felt that they should observe the situation for a longer period of time.
If mishandled, it could bankrupt the Akatsuki organization, which would be a huge loss.
After all, these things all require a considerable investment.
"Amazing!"
Yamanaka Ino said with a look of admiration.
Did you understand?
He asked in confusion every day.
"No."
Yamanaka Ino shook her head and said, "But it sounds really impressive."
Kiba Inuzuka was so dejected from having to go back and relearn traps that he didn't listen to a word Kitazawa said.
"Kitazawa, where did you learn all this?"
Kurenai understood a lot, but still only had a vague understanding.
She had no recollection of the ninja academy teaching such content.
"Just guessing."
Kitazawa casually remarked, "I think ninjas shouldn't be confined to missions."
"Your viewpoint is truly unorthodox."
Kurenai paused for a moment, then said.
The environment and education she received from childhood were all related to ninjas, teaching her to prioritize missions and adhere to ninja principles.
She couldn't agree with Kitazawa's idea for the time being.
However, she didn't think much of it.
She does whatever Kitazawa says.
"Crow, your squad stays behind."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and said, "On the one hand, we will supervise Kado, and on the other hand, we will help the underwater exploration team."
"Yes, Lord Kitazawa."
"It is a crow," the crow said in a deep voice.
Although Kitazawa's mission was a bit strange, as an ANBU ninja, he had to carry out any mission, no matter what it was.
"Release all of Kado's guards."
Kitazawa thought for a moment and then said.
These guards were neither strong nor of any value.
Now that Gato is under the control of Konoha Village, they are no longer needed.
“These employees also need to be replaced. They are used to smuggling contraband, and if we let them go back to normal, it might cause trouble.”
Kitazawa handed the employee list to Crow.
As for the new employees, he had already said that they would be recruited from among the residents of the Land of Waves.
"Yes, Lord Kitazawa."
