Uchiha's opinion

Uchiha Tokumitsu delivered an important speech at the Uzumaki Research Institute, fully passed the mouth addiction of Minke, and arranged the two core research topics of tailed beast miniaturization and artificial tailed beast, and was about to set off to return to Konoha, A group of missions from Kirigakure chased after him.

"What's the matter?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu is eager to return home, and he has no desire to chat with Messenger Kirigakure.

"Buy warships and arms!"

The messenger is still the familiar Loquat Shizang.

He's also a very straightforward ninja who doesn't like to go around in circles either.

"That's easy to say!"

When Uchiha Tokumitsu heard this, he immediately regained his spirits, and waved his hand to let the attendant ninja postpone the trip.

"What battleship do you want?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu asked enthusiastically.

For a long time, the big head of the arms business of the Uchiha clan has been dominated by explosive charms. The market share of ordinary ninja tools such as kunai and shuriken has been continuously eroded by low-priced ninja tools from countries such as the country of Takumi. He actually came directly to purchase, and he would be sorry for himself if he didn't kill him severely!

"Ironclad!"

Loquat Shizang said: "And the big tube on top!"

"You want this..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu leaned back, his expression became a little strange: "That's the secret weapon of the shogunate's Great Wall..."

"Is it not for sale?"

Loquat Shizang frowned and asked.

"no no!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu shook his head again and again, "I mean..."

"I have to pay more!"

"The money is easy to talk about, just don't go too far!"

Loquat Shizang is very crisp.

Uchiha Tokumitsu likes this kind of straightforward person the most.

"But the three existing ironclad ships in service cannot be given to you."

As soon as Uchiha Tokumitsu said this, Loquat Juzo was a little disappointed.

"But there are still three warships in the dock that have been launched and are undergoing sea trials. They should be officially completed in about a month..."

Turning around, Uchiha Tokumitsu continued.

"These three ships, Kirigakure, are coming!"

Loquat Juzang was afraid that Uchiha Tokumitsu would make another reversal, so he said quickly.

"That's not a problem...the shogunate and Wu Yin have always been good friends, and it is also appropriate to help each other."

Uchiha Tokumitsu said with a smile.

"How much is that approximately?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu agreed so readily, and his mouth was full of friendly nonsense, so Loquat Juzang immediately became defensive.

"The price is a matter for the people below to discuss. As high-level officials, we should not be involved in these common affairs, otherwise it would be too shameful!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu said in a good voice.

He is always very patient in the face of taking advantage of the big money.

"However... No matter what the final transaction price is, there will definitely be your share!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu lowered his voice and guided him carefully.

Loquat Juzang frowned.

Take this to test Kirigakure Ninja? !

"Five percent~"

Which Wuyin can withstand such a test!

Tokumitsu Uchiha's heart is not dark, so he intends to double the quotation for the sum of research and development costs, dock construction costs, and ship manufacturing costs.

Just in this way, the shipyard of the shogunate can expand and manufacture a new generation of ironclad ships.

"Drink tea, drink tea..."

Loquat Shizo raises his cup of tea in embarrassment to hide his excitement.

He originally wanted to get up and yell at him to refuse, that would also show Kirigakure's iron bones.

Just thinking about the budget approved by the three generations of Mizukage before the mission...

It's just that Uchiha Tokumitsu gave too much!

Loquat Shizang seemed to hear the sound of his own integrity being shattered...

"The big cylinder on the boat is also needed!"

Loquat Ten Zang coughed, trying to make his attitude natural and as businesslike as possible.

"Datong...you mean the torpedo torpedo launcher?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu smiled until the creases on his face danced, "No problem, this is all standard equipment!"

Loquat Shizang nodded calmly.

It's just that his rosy face revealed his excitement at this time.

"But don't you think about buying some detonators?"

Tokumitsu Uchiha's expression was very kind, "An ironclad ship is equipped with twenty-two torpedo launchers as standard, and each torpedo is loaded with 1,200 special waterproof detonation charms. Three ironclad ships need to consume 79,200 detonation symbols for a round of salvo. symbol……"

"Ahem!"

Loquat Shizang drank tea to hide his shock.

"If that's the case...then buy some detonating charms..."

"That's easy to say, and the detonating talisman can also be counted in the purchase cost of the ironclad ship, which is also 5%..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu dispelled Loquat Juzo's concerns very intimately.

"500,000 Detonating Talismans!"

Loquat Juzang typed it very happily, and added a sentence at the end: "What I want is the special waterproof detonating charm of the Uchiha clan! You can't use other inferior products to make up for it!"

"You can rest assured of the reputation of the Uchiha clan in the arms business..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu likes others to kneel and punch.

"There is also some demand for conventional ninja tools such as Kunai Shuriken, so let's purchase together at that time..."

Loquat Shizang's eyes flickered.

A lot of money has been spent, and the small money for ordinary ninja tools is naturally not a problem.

Besides, no matter how small the mosquito is, it is still meat, and it is not for nothing.

"no problem!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu fully agreed.

Then they called someone to bring in some exquisite food, and the two continued to chat while eating.

...

"Has Yunyin done anything special recently?"

Tokumitsu Uchiha gracefully sliced ​​open the Kusanagi Premium Steak, and elegantly forked the meat into his mouth.

Although Loquat Juzo remained calm, he had been watching Uchiha Tokumitsu's every move from the corner of his eye.

"It's so elegant..."

Loquat Shizang thought to himself.

Even the nobles of the land of water, the etiquette of meals is not half as elegant as Uchiha Tokumitsu!

"Is this the background of the most powerful ninja family in the ninja world..."

Loquat Shizang involuntarily straightened his waist.

"Do you want some?"

Uchiha Tokumitsu raised the glass bottle with a smile.

"This... the three bans of ninjas require abstinence from alcohol..."

Loquat Shizang looked a little unnatural.

"It's all right...it's just fermented grape juice."

Uchiha Tokumitsu got up very enthusiastically and filled a glass of Loquat Juzang, "This is the best quality grape juice produced in the dangerous valley on the top of Kawa no Kuni, and the output is only 200 bottles a year!"

"A good thing that even a daimyo may not be able to drink!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu placed the wine bottle on the desk of Loquat Juzo.

"Grape juice..."

Smelling the refreshing fragrance, Loquat Shizang couldn't control his hands.

He raised his glass and sipped a few sips. Under Uchiha Tokumitsu's Huairou offensive, Loquat Juzo completely let go of his guard, and described the current situation and difficulties facing Kirigakure one by one.

Although Mizukage Mizukage suppressed the internal instability with an iron fist and promoted the peace talks, there are still a large number of ninjas in Kirigakure who are dissatisfied, thinking that this is an act of losing power and humiliating the village.

It's just that in front of the menacing Yunyin with malicious intentions, Kirigashi still needs to unite under the command of the third generation of Mizukage to defeat foreign enemies.

There are as many as 2,000 ninja troops attacking Yunyin from across the sea, and even Kirigakure, who has been defeated repeatedly, still has nearly 10,000 registered ninjas. Coupled with his familiarity with sea routes and waterways, it is not difficult to resist Yunyin's invasion.

It's just that Yunyin is still sending more ninja troops, it seems that it's not just harassment.

Although Kirigakure fought back and forth with the incoming Yunyin at sea, the shortage of supplies and lack of armaments also plagued the Kirigakure ninja army.

Because of this, Wuyin has been unable to launch a large-scale offensive, and drove Yunyin away in one fell swoop.

Faced with such a situation, Mizukage Sandai issued a call for "teaching the best skills of the shogunate to control Yunyin", advocating learning from the Tokuko shogunate who was fighting to the death not long ago, re-training new ninja troops, repairing armaments and Procurement of shortage military supplies.

The call of the third Mizukage also alleviated Kirigakure Ninja's dissatisfaction with him to a certain extent.

At the beginning, some ninjas of Kirigakure believed that Mizukage Mizukage was bearing the burden of humiliation in order to work hard and revive Kirigakure's momentum.

It was also under such a trend of thought that Mizukage Mizukage officially signed an order to send Loquat Juzang south to the shogunate to negotiate arms purchases.

Uchiha Tokumitsu raised his goblet to pay tribute to Loquat Juzang to conceal the strange look on his face.

What is this?

Fog Hidden Westernization Movement?

The reform of the country of water?

Or civilized?

Uchiha Tokumitsu's stomach was about to cramp from laughing.

"Since Mizukage-sama is so talented and ambitious, as the general who controls the southern archipelago, I will naturally join in his grand feat..."

Uchiha Tokumitsu pondered for a moment, "How about this, then I will sponsor Kirigakure to build a ship repair yard at the cost price, so that it will be convenient for Kirigakure to maintain the ironclad ship in the future..."

"Wouldn't it cost General Deguang a lot, how embarrassing it is..."

"Don't get in the way, don't get in the way~"

Uchiha Tokumitsu waved his hands again and again, indicating that it was a trivial matter, "Now the shogunate and Kirigakure belong to the same lineage of the water country, and it is appropriate to support each other...and it is also included in the purchase cost~"

"That's it... Then I would like to thank General Deguang..."

Loquat Ten Zang smiled all over his face.

Taking these back is all his credit!

"Mr. Loquat and I hit it off right away, so naturally I want to support your work!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu's eyes turned into crescent moons.

"Drink, drink!"

Loquat Shizang laughed loudly, no longer entangled in the problem of fermenting grape juice.

"Serve the wine and serve the wine!"

Uchiha Tokumitsu repeatedly greeted the attendant ninja.

As for the aid in the construction of the shipyard, Tokumitsu Uchiha also has bad intentions.

Although the ship repair yard will lead to a certain degree of technical leakage, but in turn, it can also grasp the technical level of Fog Hidden on the ground.

Furthermore, the shogunate adopted the military R\u0026D idea of ​​"equipping one generation, developing one generation, and pre-researching one generation". In a short period of time, there is no need to worry about being overtaken by Kirigakure on a curve, and a large amount of arms output can also suppress Kirigakure's autonomy. Research and development needs, and the income from the arms business can be invested in the construction of new armaments to achieve a virtuous circle.

This is a win-win situation!

Under the influence of wine, Uchiha Tokumitsu's small face also became rosy.

This... the recent double monthly ticket, so I have the audacity to ask for a ticket~
