War in the otherworld is a natural disaster to ordinary people.
A slight collision will result in death or injury.
But these ordinary and extraordinary ordinary people are also supporting the ninjas who are about to go to the front line in their own way!
Rich merchants and wealthy merchants donated money and materials to Konoha's public treasury as a good cause.
Ninjas also need to be paid when they go to the front line.
During the Sarutobi regime, rewards were given based on the level of the ninja.
For example, genin are paid according to the bounty of C-level missions.
The reward for a C-level mission is around 30,000 to 100,000 taels.
After passing each level, genin can receive up to 50,000 taels.
Chuunin are assigned B-level tasks, Jonin are assigned A-level tasks, and squad leader-level commanders are assigned S-level tasks——
Except for those at the jounin level, genin and chuunin are all exploited.
Moreover, there will often be situations where ‘Konoha is in financial shortage and cannot pay wages’.
Every war is an economic war.
The Sarutobi clan is not engaged in production, but it has been able to develop rapidly and maintain so many family ninjas because it has been lying on Konoha's body to suck blood.
Suck the blood of the people and the blood of the soldiers.
People like Sarutobi Hiruzen would also use the will of fire to brainwash them from time to time, hyping up the 'heroic deeds' of a certain ninja in order to calm the resentment of frontline ninjas.
After Qianye came to power, he did not choose to do this.
This money was earned by ninjas working on the front line, and Qianye directly increased it by 30% on the original basis.
Even though it is not distributed according to the highest standards, this is already the best treatment in the ninja world.
Moreover, in order to fill the 20% vacancy, Qianye introduced new regulations.
Those who have formation killing records or have completed special tasks during wartime can also receive an additional bounty and military exploits.
Battle merit can be used to exchange for various resources, needless to say bounties.
The main reason for this is that he is indeed facing the pressure of financial constraints.
The Sarutobi and Shimura clans have been sucking blood for many years.
But the money gained was used by Sarutobi Hiruzen to vigorously develop his family.
Danzo Shimura gave blood to the roots.
A lot of property was searched, but the money was flowing like water and I couldn't help but use it for too long.
The main source of military expenditure is the financial allocation from the Fire Nation.
The name of the Fire Country is the representative of the noble group, which does not mean that he can make decisions with one word.
It's not easy to get money from those vampires.
Now facing a foreign invasion, Qianye cannot spare any effort.
When the war is over, if the money is not enough, he will 'obey' the orders of the Fire Country Daimyo and send people to his door one by one to ask for it!
Those who had no money worked hard to move piles of military supplies together, or were busy doing other things.
Ichiraku and his colleagues in the catering industry met together, made large pots, piled stoves on the streets, lit fires on the spot, and cooked a bowl of hometown ramen for the soldiers who were about to go to the front line.
After the publication of "Konoha Daily", Ichiraku quickly became a loyal reader of "Konoha Daily".
He clearly remembered this sentence written in it:
Those who work for everyone should not be allowed to freeze to death in the snow!
Regardless of their professional status as ninjas, these ninjas are not strangers.
They are also their relatives and friends!
The flames on the stove were blazing, licking the bottom of the pot, and the soup and boiling water inside were bubbling.
Although they were far apart, the chill of the night was inexplicably dispelled.
He straightened the white square hat with his hands and said cheerfully:
"Let's have a bowl of ramen at home before leaving. I received a notice from the Hokage this afternoon, so time is a little rushed.
When everyone comes back, we will prepare a bowl of luxurious ramen with rich ingredients for everyone!"
"Oh, the ramen is ready, please use it slowly!"
Not all of the people who came over carrying big bowls of ramen were waiters in the catering industry.
They are more of the native families of the ninjas.
Their parents, their relatives and friends, their brothers and sisters, their lovers.
"Come back alive, and I'll wait at home for you to come back and have a baby with me!"
This ninja was a weather-beaten and cheeky man, but looking at his wife's red eyes, he clenched his fists and nodded fiercely:
"Wait until I come back! I want to have a litter of cubs with you!"
The gray-haired old father was holding a cane: "When you go to the battlefield, you should pay more attention to your own safety, but you can't be a deserter. Your mother died in the Ninja War. Remember to kill those bastards for me!"
"Don't worry, dad, wait for my good news!"
The man with a simple face looks like a nagging woman:
"Brother doesn't have much ability. I will take care of my parents at home, so don't worry.
Don't rush into the battlefield impulsively. You should also pay attention to your own safety during the battle. Remember to..."
The young man who used to be impatient with his elder brother's nagging didn't say a word at this time. He just pursed his lips, took the big bowl full of ramen with slightly trembling hands, and swallowed it in big gulps.
...
not far away.
Nara Shikaku hesitated and said: "Hokage-sama, after finishing the ramen, it will exceed the original departure time, otherwise..."
He was not only worried about exceeding the original departure time, but also worried that the morale of the army would be shaken and that the ninjas would be afraid of death after going to the front line.
Qianye probably knew what Nara Shikaku was thinking, and shook his head: "This is good."
Ninjas are people too, not tools.
After they understand what they are fighting for, they will explode with a hundred or a thousand times more 'power'!
Like a wall of copper and iron.
"Mr. Shikaku, your family is here."
"It's really troublesome. He actually hid here quietly and made me look for him for a long time."
"Here, here's the miso-cooked mackerel that mom made for you."
Nara Shikamaru muttered and handed over the big bowl of ramen.
"Shikamaru bought the fish himself." Shikamaru's mother added.
"Mom! You are in trouble too!"
Qianye looked at this scene, raised the corner of his mouth slightly, patted Nara Shikaku's shoulder, and said to Shikamaru with a smile:
"Shikamaru, you have to teach your father and mother a lesson."
After saying that, Qianye turned around and left, leaving some private space for Nara Shikaku's family of three.
"Where is Hokage-sama's family?" Nara Shikaku asked softly.
"Shikamaru!" His mother raised her voice.
What does Nara Shikaku know through his mother's attitude?
"Sorry, Hokage-sama, that's not what I meant." He apologized anxiously, fearing that his words would hurt Qianye.
Qianye smiled heartily and pointed into the distance: "My family is here."
Nara Shikamaru's family looked in the direction Qianye pointed.
A young man with six beard lines on his face stood at the front, and he was clearly Uzumaki Naruto.
Next to him was Uchiha Sasuke with a cold expression.
"Teacher! Here, here!" Naruto waved his arms vigorously, dancing like a little orangutan.
Seeing that Zuosuke on the side had no reaction, he immediately put his right arm around Zuosuke's shoulders and danced with Zuosuke.
"Old...head of the family." Zuosuke whispered.
Behind them were Uchiha clansmen one after another.
With smiles on their faces: "Master of the family."
A heartfelt smile appeared on Qianye's lips, and he walked forward.
