Konoha: Start by unlocking the caged bird!

Chapter 145 The Wind Rises

“When I was little, I always heard a voice.”

Hyuga Yuzuru's realization of calmness is just narrating the facts.

"Some people say that the people of the Uchiha clan are arrogant, withdrawn, and extreme. They never consider themselves a part of Konoha."

"Some people say that the Uchiha clan is arrogant and arrogant, and they are never willing to put down their dignity and fight with ordinary people in the village."

"Some people say that the Uchiha clan will be Konoha's biggest hidden danger. It will be difficult to get rid of it..."

Hinata Yuzuru laughed: "But in fact, is this really the case?"

"I only see that the Uchiha family has never shed less blood for Konoha than any other family. The contribution the Uchiha people have made to Konoha has been witnessed by every ninja fighting on the front line. It is undeniable. "

"My childhood friend, Uchiha Itachi, has now become the leader of the Roots. He is taciturn and not good at words, but he has a heart that is no less loving and loyal than any Konoha person. In these years, I have even become a leader because of him. I feel guilty for my selfless contribution to the village without asking for anything in return.

Itachi, thank you. "

Hinata Yuzuru's eyes looked into the distance, and Uchiha Itachi in the shadow just nodded slightly stiffly - he was not used to standing in front of the stage like this and being stared at by so many eyes, but when Hinata Yuzuru was like this When I sincerely expressed my gratitude to him, a warm current suddenly rose in my heart.

His lips moved, but he didn't say anything. He just showed a gentle smile with a calm expression.

"The current leader of the Uchiha clan, my squad leader during the ANBU period, Uchiha Shisui, and now the ANBU minister of Konoha, is an outstanding ninja who inherited the Uchiha mirror, the ancestor of the Uchiha clan, and upholds the will of fire in his heart. , never wavered from beginning to end.

He was my role model when I was in ANBU, and he is also a senior that I still respect very much to this day. "

Uchiha Shisui obviously never thought that Hinata Yuzuru would mention his name.

Hyuga Yuzuru smiled and nodded at him, and Uchiha Shisui showed a somewhat naive smile, took off his mask, scratched his head, and bowed slightly to the surroundings, in response to the applause that sounded at this moment.

“And the reason why I want to say their names and talk about the Uchiha clan at this moment is because I hope to take this opportunity to let everyone in Konoha understand something.

From today on, I hope that all Konoha people can unite.

Whether they are large or small families, civilians, or even recent immigrants, they can all forget their past barriers and live in Konoha Village with equality and happiness in this new Konoha, a new world. "

Hyuga Yuzuru only talked briefly and did not overextend it, but the big and small families, or the thoughtful commoners, all cheered up.

On such a day, pointing out this issue so seriously and solemnly cannot be groundless.

It's very possible that this is vaccination in advance.

Many smart people even thought thoughtfully, guessing that this might be the focus of Konoha's work in the future. They felt solemn in their hearts and decided to regulate the words and deeds of those around them after returning home.

Hinata Yuzuru stopped talking, changed the topic, and was ready to wrap up this conversation.

He first seriously thanked some of the ninjas who had made outstanding contributions during the interim Hokage period, including Metkai, Kakashi, Jiraiya and Tsunade, the two veteran Sannins, the outstanding teachers of Konoha School, etc.

Then, he spoke.

"The Konoha of the future will be a better Konoha, but in this process, we will definitely encounter challenges."

"Some problems and challenges may come from within us. In this part, we must follow the trend and make changes.

But I believe that more problems still exist outside Konoha.

But no matter what, no matter whether it is an individual, an organization, a shinobi village, or a country, it is impossible to stop Konoha's progress!

As long as I am the fifth generation of Konoha, there will never be failure in Konoha's future. The future I long for, the peace I long for, will inevitably become Konoha's reality!

But what is needed for all this is not just my own efforts, but the joint efforts of everyone in Konoha to reap the beautiful fruits of victory.

I would like to make a commitment here!

As long as you share my yearning for such a peaceful and beautiful future, and are willing to move forward together with me!

We are ahead!

Invincible! "

As the words fell, the curtain on the Hokage Rock behind him also slowly fell. Next to the portrait of the Fourth Namikaze Minato, the head of Hinata Yuzuru was carved lifelike. He had a gentle smile on his face, but his eyebrows were quite sharp. He seemed to have both The gentleness of the first generation has the majesty of the second generation.

At this moment, both ninjas and civilians tried their best to respond to his words. The mountains roared and the sea roared in response to his last words. And in the midst of the cheers, Hinata Yuzuru raised his arms and shook his head. said at the end.

"Get ready! A new era has arrived!"

He put down the microphone, gently pressed the Hokage's hat and his face disappeared behind the veil, waved to the people, and walked off the stage amidst fanatical shouts.

His work was finished, but tonight's grand ceremony did not end there.

People who left the square excitedly discussed what the Fifth Hokage had said at this ceremony.

A grand ceremony was held in Konoha.

People didn't want to go home, cheering on the streets and enjoying the long-lost exciting atmosphere. Hyuga Yuzuru also promptly approved this celebration. Only tonight, until the early morning, Konoha is brightly lit. , people’s laughter is everywhere.

As for what happened tonight, the words and thoughts expressed by Hinata Yuzuru spread throughout the ninja world as if they had wings.

Hyuga Yuzuru is well aware of the importance of public opinion. He not only recorded the whole process of tonight with a camera, but also made everything that happened today the first documentary in the history of Konoha, or the entire ninja world.

The goods were distributed at almost free prices and shipped in large quantities for sale. In just a few days, even in the Kirigakure Village on an isolated island on the sea, a video tape of this documentary began to circulate.

In today's ninja world, the only function of television is to play movies, but there are only one or two good movies that can be popular in the entire ninja world every year. Most of them are watched by different families, and the degree of dissemination is limited.

With this move, Hyuga Yuzuru created a new video-recording theme, 'documentary', and used extremely low prices to sell products at a loss. According to Hyuga Yuzuru, as long as there is a TV at home, Wherever it can be sold, this film must be there.

Hyuga Yuzuru even requested that a new cheap TV developed by Konoha should be hung in every store related to Konoha to broadcast documentaries on an infinite loop for free to the people on the street.

What was recorded in the documentary was not only Hinata Yuzuru's speech, but also the scene of people flocking to Konoha, and the celebration-like atmosphere after the speech...

He is even more of a thief. Even the promotional videos he produced and many of Konoha's advertisements were cleverly integrated and edited into the documentary. As long as you watch the whole thing, it's impossible not to notice these things.

The influence of all this is naturally self-evident.

For small countries like the Land of Rain and the Land of Tea, there are still people who don’t have enough to eat, don’t have warm clothes, are homeless, and sleep in the open.

When they were on the street, watching the TVs sold in shops related to Konoha, they saw the prosperous and modern Konoha 'cityscape', the gorgeous clothes of the people, the various delicacies at the celebrations, and the promotional videos. Incredible high-tech products...

One can imagine how much impact it will have on these people.

There have been repeated waves of immigrants on the border of the Fire Country, or, more appropriately, a wave of refugees.

A large number of people who lived a hard life in their original hometown looked forward to Konoha and headed towards the Land of Fire.

They firmly believe that the protagonist in the novel "Reply", which is popular in the ninja world, and the Hokage in the documentary "The Fifth Hokage: The Beginning" will make them live a better life.

For a time, Konoha was almost regarded as an ideal utopia, a fantasyland in the cold reality.

Konoha's work was in an orderly manner. With the tacit approval of the daimyo, Konoha took over part of the territory south of Kaminari. Its sphere of influence suddenly expanded, from a big city-level existence to a provincial-level existence, even as large as a province. More than that.

Under the arrangement of Hyuga Yuzuru, a large number of grassroots key personnel who had been trained in recent years began to take over the surrounding areas to transform them, turning those cities into Konoha from the top down.

Originally, some people were skeptical about his massive expansion, believing that Konoha's original system would be completely unable to control so many towns, or that progress would be extremely slow. However, Hyuga Yuzuru was already prepared to use his own The system that has been implemented in Konoha for many years and has been verified is copied and appropriated, turning cities into small Konoha-like existences.

The worrying problem of control has also disappeared with the rapid expansion of Konoha Communications' base stations.

The first mobile phone launched by Konoha, Maple Leaf 1, is a bit expensive for ordinary people. It may take one or two months' salary to purchase one, not including the usage fee.

But for most of the ninja group, they purchased it at the first opportunity.

Although today's mobile phones can only be used for text messages and calls, have long antennas, and occasionally have poor signal problems, they have gradually become the norm due to promotion.

Launched at the same time as mobile phones, there are also cheaper landline phones.

The signal of landline phones is relatively stable, and the price is almost half that of mobile phones. Coupled with the discounts and low usage fees, it has quickly become popular in Konoha.

After all, if it really doesn’t work, you can still apply for installment payment.

In today's Konoha, as long as you have a stable job, you can go to the bank to apply for a personal credit card. Hyuga Yuzuru is more cautious about cultivating the habit of using credit cards, but he is extremely optimistic about Konoha's future economic situation. After multiple considerations, he still has to It would be better to encourage consumption more to stimulate the economy.

Today, Konoha spends a lot of money every day, and also pockets a lot of money.

It wasn't until early August that Konoha released another even more shocking news.

Issuance of Konoha's currency 'Konoha Coin'.

Hyuga Yuzuru is extremely cautious about the issuance of coins. He knows that the currency war is also an important war, and his knowledge in this area is far from profound. Step by step, he just repeatedly emphasizes the meaning of currency as he understands it. Conduct analysis, simulation, and planning for your own staff team.

Now Konoha's staff group, or to be more precise, the administrative department, has gradually become full of manpower.

The newly graduated students every year, plus the number of field ninjas who have been approved for transfer, can almost fill nearly a thousand vacancies in various departments in Konoha.

Naturally, it is impossible for Konoha Village to completely digest it, but Konoha is now in a state of crazy expansion. In addition to Konoha Village, there are also some cities taken over by the Fire Country and towns developed and built by themselves that need manpower.

The extent of the expansion of Konoha now is simply shocking - the original Konoha's defecation and defecation were shocking enough, but now, the size of Konoha Village alone is enough to be called the largest 'village' in the ninja world.

Not to mention that the construction plan has reached Konoha's Sixth Ring Road, but the population density is still rising strangely.

Thanks to the many tracks opened up by Konoha, many factories and companies have been born. As long as ordinary people have received training and education, they can get a job, and the number of immigrants accepted by Konoha has also begun to gradually increase.

The Country of Fire, as a buffer zone, passively digested a large number of people that Konoha could not eat for the time being. The daimyo was so anxious that he almost cried, but he had to pay for it from the national treasury to resettle the refugees in his own country.

It would be fine if these people honestly regarded him as citizens of the Fire Country - but who doesn't know that this group of people is clearly the potential population of Konoha. As long as Konoha is willing to open the door, this group of people will come from within minutes. Fire Nation people become Konoha people.

Although nominally the people of Konoha are also people from the Land of Fire, in fact...

And how does Konoha cope with the financial pressure of massive infrastructure construction, refugee admissions, currency issuance, etc.?

Naturally, other countries and Ninja Villages should be asked to help digest it.

The Country of Wind's trade deficit has hit record highs for several months in a row, but they dare not operate behind closed doors. With the trade conditions of Sunagakure Village in place, they must endure the impact of Konoha's products on their own economy.

Low prices, better quality, more jobs, but people from the Wind Country are working for Konoha, making money for Konoha, and using Konoha's money to buy Konoha products, other Wind Country The taxes we can collect are extremely low...

Poor, so poor!

The Daimyo of the Land of Wind had tears in his eyes, but he had to spend money to hire Konoha News Agency to build a base station... But anyone with a brain knows the importance of a phone.

The Daimyo of the Land of Wind did not realize the importance of television, but the Konoha TV station established by Yuzuru Hyuga has begun to gradually play a role in the Land of Fire.

The Konoha Special Photography Class has been established, and a large number of crude TV dramas filled with "The Will of Fire" have begun to spread through signals. You can see recent news about the ninja world in the news every day...

Yuzuru Hyuga also encouraged individuals or small families to participate in this economic boom. Various brands began to spring up like mushrooms after a rain.

Although Konoha's government-owned enterprises still have many advantages, there is always no shortage of smart people in the world. Various commodities are constantly emerging under the promotion of the economy, and all walks of life have also entered a period of ultra-high-speed development like a blowout.

But it has to be said that Hyuga Yuzuru still underestimated the enthusiasm of some people to make money.

Under the siege of Konoha's various commodities, Sunagakure Village actually followed suit and established Sunagakure Metallurgical Company, breaking out of the siege in the metallurgical industry, and began to harvest wealth in the market for the first time.

Luo Sha is not a stuffy guy, he really has a bit of stuff.

Due to the existence of old lady Chiyo, Sunagakure Village has also developed many industries that can compete with Konoha in subdivided fields such as medicine, maintaining the economy of Sunagakure Village... Of course, the Kingdom of Wind is still losing blood. They simply couldn't keep up with the speed of the technology competition in Ninja Village today, and were left far behind.

Kirigakure Village is relatively pitiful. The closed geographical location means that they can only continue to seek development prospects in the ocean field. It is not known whether they can find a way out. However, with the help of Konoha, a large number of factories have begun to be built. Kirigakure Village only has With tears in his eyes, Noh watched Konoha begin to harvest wealth.

But it's not all bad - at least, while Konoha is making money, it has also really improved the quality of life of the people in various shinobi villages. If you work in Konoha's factories, wouldn't you also be able to make money? Some of this money will still flow back into the local market of Wuyin Village. In addition, Wuyin Village has been suffering from illnesses for many years. Most people have low expectations for the future, which leads to more people tending to save.

Terumi had an idea and opened a bank, and actually started thinking about using the bank's savings to learn how to invest in Konoha.

If you can't make money from Konoha, is it possible that you can't make money from other small countries?

It’s okay to make money from the country of water!

Well, Hinata Yuzuru made a good start - everyone started not to regard their daimyo as 'one of their own'.

But compared to Kirigakure Village and Sand Hidden Village.

In this case, the most anxious ones are Yumo Gakuin and Iwagakure, who should be sitting firmly on the Diaoyutai and have great advantages.

In mid-August, the Tsuchikage and Raikage met, and finally, at the end of August, news was released that shocked the ninja world.

Both parties decided to focus on the present and create a better future together!

The Yunyan Alliance was established!

An invisible breeze seemed to be blowing across the entire ninja world.

Just two months later, in mid-October, the gentle breeze that had been blowing in the shinobi world suddenly condensed into a huge storm.
