"Bah! Where did this little thief come from? He is so stinky and shameless!"
The middle-aged woman opened the wooden door. Her clothes and hairstyle were a bit messy, and her expression was full of annoyance. She never thought that she would make a mistake and be deceived.
The lie was not that Kizaru prostituted her for nothing, but that after the two entered the house, Kizaru asked about the inside story of the okiya instead of asking about Feng Yue.
Of course, in order to ask for what he wanted, Kizaru added a little bit of intimidation.
Not to mention, after Kizaru was frightened, he actually asked a lot of things.
The most important point is that Kizaru has confirmed that human trafficking still exists in these romantic places.
It's just that these guys are smarter, and they put a layer of skin on the human trade, that is, they are lifelong apprentices.
These okiyas use the pretext of cultivating musicians, dancers, geishas and other professions to sign up children at high prices.
Once these children are signed to an okiya by their parents or others, their personal freedom is basically gone, and their destiny is completely controlled by the okiya.
A slave and an apprentice are just another name. In this place, there is almost no difference in their essence.
And this is Fengyue Street in Konoha Village, right under the eyes of the village. These people don't dare to go too far and want to put on a good-looking skin for themselves.
Kizaru could already imagine how many more direct and cruel places there were outside Konoha Village, especially those places far away from Konoha.
We are still short of manpower! We need to find more people to work!
As for the person who knows the most about this kind of place, there is one person that Kizaru knows who is truly proficient in this way.
Jiraiya, one of the three ninjas, was dissatisfied with Kizaru's massacre of nobles, especially the genocide-style massacre, so he left the village in the name of travel and creation.
Nowadays, the nobility has completely become history. Kizaru's purge of the nobility has been completed. Perhaps it is time to call Jiraiya back.
Early the next morning, Kizaru issued an order to the ANBU, asking the ANBU ninjas to recall Jiraiya.
The ANBU's mobility did not disappoint Kizaru, it was so fast! In just two days, the ANBU ninjas found Jiraiya who was collecting materials in the old Yu no Kuni.
Facing the order given by Kizaru brought by the ANBU ninja, Jiraiya put away the drawing book and pen in his hand with a slightly complicated expression.
Jiraiya has always admired Kizaru very much. Even after Kizaru and Tsunade got together, Jiraiya didn't feel jealous because of it.
But only in terms of purging the nobles, Jiraiya didn't like Kizaru's behavior very much.
In his opinion, Kizaru's high-pressure purge of nobles, which could lead to genocide, was too much.
There are also good people among the nobility. Without distinguishing between them, just because they are members of the same clan, they should all be liquidated or even physically eliminated. This is wrong!
Such behavior is too bloody and brutal!
"Jiraiya-sama, please prepare as soon as possible and come back to the village with us!" the ANBU ninja who came to inform Jiraiya reminded him.
"Do you know why Hokage-sama asked me to return to the village?" Jiraiya asked in confusion.
"Master Hokage didn't tell me this, but I think it must be something very important!"
After saying that, the ANBU ninja kept looking at Jiraiya, waiting for the adult's decision.
"Then let me go!" Jiraiya stood up and said simply.
"Yes!" ANBU ninja replied quickly.
The distance from the old Yu no Kuni to Konoha Village was not too far. It only took the two of them one day to get back to the village.
When he came back, Jiraiya looked at the village that had expanded almost a circle and was still under construction. He felt like time passed too fast for some reason.
"Most of these newly built houses are arranged for villagers who have relocated from other ninja villages." Noticing Jiraiya's slowing down and the changes on his face, the ANBU ninja took the initiative to explain.
After being slightly startled, Jiraiya asked curiously: "Are there many people willing to move here?"
"Of course, our Konoha is the capital of the Kingdom of Light. It is the most advanced village with the best living conditions in the world! Ninjas and villagers from other villages, as long as they are not too stubborn, want to move here."
Anbu ninjas are very proud of this.
"As expected of Kizaru, you did a great job!" Jiraiya praised sincerely.
The two of them talked, arrived at the center of the village, and entered the Hokage Building.
"Oh! Brother Jiraiya, we haven't seen each other for a long time!" Kizaru, who was sitting in the office, smiled when he saw Jiraiya walking in.
Although Jiraiya and Kizaru had some ideological differences because of the noble matter, their relationship was still real.
Jiraiya also had a smile on his face. He rubbed the back of his head with a smile and walked to the desk.
The ANBU ninjas retreated consciously, Senju Tobirama was temporarily absent due to something, and Kizaru and Jiraiya happened to be the only ones left in this room.
"Have you gained anything during this period of travel?" Kizaru looked at Jiraiya and asked with a smile.
"I have collected a lot of good materials, do you want to take a look?" Once certain topics were touched upon, Jiraiya instinctively became less serious.
"Oh! I happen to have a lot of materials collected here, how about we exchange them?" As he spoke, Kizaru opened the drawer and took out a stack of documents about two fingers thick.
Jiraiya was shocked when he saw Kizaru taking out so many documents at once. What he hated most was looking through and processing these documents.
"Hahaha! I guess let's forget it!" Jiraiya smiled dryly, put his hands in front of him and shook them vigorously, his whole body showing a sense of rejection.
"Take a good look! This is the main reason why I called you back." The documents in Kizaru's hands recorded a large number of criminal incidents behind the Fengyue place. He sincerely hoped that Jiraiya would take a careful look.
Seeing Kizaru's serious attitude, Jiraiya stopped delaying and reached out to take the document.
Opening the first page curiously, what caught Jiraiya's eyes was a color photo of a girl who had been beaten to death.
Such an impactful scene from the beginning made Jiraiya's mentality become serious, and he vaguely felt the seriousness of this incident.
Under the photo, there is a detailed text introduction, which introduces the information and general experience of the murdered woman, as well as the current current situation of the perpetrator.
The woman's name is Iketani Toyoko. Her parents died in an accident when she was 13 years old. When her parents passed away, she left Toyoko with two younger brothers and a younger sister.
In order to take care of her younger siblings, 13-year-old Fengzi looked for a job, and was finally tricked into working in a bar, serving customers.
Fengzi only stayed in this bar for two years, not because she changed her job, but because she died two years later.
This year, Fengzi was only 15 years old. It was the beautiful moment when the flowers were in bud, and her life stayed here forever.
After Fengzi died, her two younger brothers and one younger sister died of illness because there was no one to take care of them. The younger sister disappeared, and only the eldest brother survived.
The information above was provided by Toyoko, the surviving brother, who is now the assistant of a businessman in Konoha.
As for those who killed Fengzi, according to the situation, most of them are still alive and well and continue to enjoy their lives and wealth.
His face darkened, Jiraiya had only read the first page of information, and his heart was already filled with angry flames.
Jiraiya is lustful, but he has never forced himself on any woman. This kind of behavior of forcing girls into prostitution and torturing people to death has touched his bottom line.
"Kizaru, why did you give this to me?" Although he had only read the first page, Jiraiya had already guessed what was behind it.
"Take a closer look first." Kizaru hoped to channel the deepest anger in Jiraiya's heart.
"It's too thick. Wait until I get back and take a closer look. Tell me what you want me to do first!" Jiraiya said sincerely.
"Okay, let me tell you the truth! I am going to ban all X trading industries, and at the same time review these practitioners. Anyone who has committed criminal acts will receive the punishment they deserve!" Kizaru looked directly at himself.
Come on, look at this senior brother, what kind of reaction will you have?
Jiraiya opened his mouth, then closed it again. After hesitation, he said: "Can't we keep those regular ones and those that are not illegal?"
"No!" Kizaru said firmly, leaving no room for argument.
"Have you ever thought about what will happen to the many women who rely on this for a living?" Perhaps because he has seen more and talked more, Jiraiya suddenly became concerned about one of the key points.
.
"I have already considered this, and the country will properly arrange for them!" Kizaru promised.
With this promise, Jiraiya felt a lot more relieved. He continued: "I am willing to take on this task, but I need a little time. I want to read this information first."
"We are already taking action. We just lack a person in charge. Just give me an answer before tomorrow night." Kizaru gave him enough time.
"I'll give you an answer before tomorrow morning!" Jiraiya took the initiative to shorten the time.
After chatting about business, Jiraiya and Kizaru reminisced about old times before saying goodbye and leaving the Hokage's office.
After watching Jiraiya leave, Kizaru was able to confirm that this matter was almost settled.
After being guessed by Kizaru, the next day had not yet come. At around five o'clock in the afternoon, Jiraiya came to the Hokage's office again.
"Kizaru. Second Hokage-sama!" Jiraiya came in in a hurry and saw Senju Tobirama who was dealing with matters, but did not see Kizaru.
"Kizaru went outside to deal with things. If you have anything to do, just tell me!" Senju Tobirama looked at Jiraiya and said.
Walking to the desk, Jiraiya placed the documents he had read in front of Senju Tobirama and said with a serious expression: "I am willing to take on this task."
"Not bad! It seems that Kizaru saw the right person!" Senju Tobirama praised, and then continued, "I will arrange a hundred ninjas for you, are you confident that you can do it well?"
"I will definitely do it well!" Jiraiya said with firm eyes.
"Okay, you go down first! I will let someone inform you tomorrow." Qianju Tobirama ordered.
"I see."
After saying that, Jiraiya left the Hokage's office.
——
On both sides of the story, Kizaru is indeed dealing with things as Senju Tobirama said.
The Kingdom of Light has just been established, and there are so many things going on. Even if Kizaru wants to be lazy, there are no objective conditions for him to be lazy.
Improvement of financial currency, establishment of military system, trial operation of new laws, promotion of literacy night schools, education promotion, agricultural promotion
None of these major events can be said to be unimportant, and they all require the supervision and decision-making of Kizaru, the Fourth Hokage.
The reason why Kizaru called Jiraiya back was for this reason. He and Senju Tobirama were responsible for overall control, and they no longer had much energy to take on more specific matters.
Sarutobi Hiruzen, Danzo, Tsunade and others have all been assigned their own tasks and have no energy to take on new tasks.
With everyone so busy, Kizaru naturally couldn't let his labor force like Jiraiya go to waste and continue to be cool outside.
"Hokage-sama, these are the new banknotes we designed. Please take a look at them."
Opposite Kizaru, two people were sitting, one was Xiangshu, the head of the Bank and Chamber of Commerce, and the other was the president of the chamber of commerce.
Nowadays, the Chamber of Commerce has completely moved towards Konoha. Considering the lack of economic talents on his side, Kizaru handed over the work of financial and currency improvement to the two of them.
He took a wooden board with a glass cover from Xiangshu's hand. Under the transparent glass cover, there were ten coins of different amounts. The amount was the same as before.
What was different from the previous ones was that the pictures printed on the four banknotes were the scenery of Konoha on one side, and the portraits of the past Hokage were printed on the other side.
Among the four banknotes, the first Hokage's image is printed on the 1,000 yuan note, the second Hokage's face is printed on the 2,000 yuan note, the third Hokage's face is printed on the 5,000 yuan note, and Kizaru's face is printed on the largest amount.
Yuanshang.
In addition to the four banknotes, the remaining six coins of different denominations also had portraits printed on them, but they were not those of the past Hokages, but those of those who had made great contributions to Konoha.
For example, the image of Nezuki is on the 500-yen coin, and the image of Tsunade is on the 100-yen coin.
One of these two people has made outstanding achievements in agriculture and can be called a living saint. The other has completed the systematization of medical ninjutsu and greatly promoted the development of medical ninjutsu. Their contributions are equally huge!
In addition, Orochimaru's image was originally supposed to be placed on the coin, but considering his current identity as a traitor, Kizaru could only postpone it temporarily.
"Well done!" After reading the coins on the wooden board, Kizaru smiled and praised the two people in front of him.
"This is what we should do!"
"It is our honor to be able to make some insignificant contribution to the country."
These two are worthy of being old foxes who have been fighting in the business world for many years. They keep their posture very low in front of Kizaru and don't care about face at all.
Can any Fuyang brothers share their experience? This is already the fourth day. As long as I don’t take antipyretics, I will start to have a fever. My body is sore and weak every day, and then I will have tracheal itching and cough! It’s really uncomfortable! I don’t know how long it will take to get better.
