20 advance ahead chapter.....🥷🥷
Finally back to the village!
After Uchiha Nan settled the affairs of the Fire Country, he rushed back to Konoha without stopping.
As Hokage, leaving Konoha just one day after taking office made Uchiha Nan anxious that someone in the village might cause trouble in his absence.
To accommodate the sisters, Feng and Ling, who were ordinary people without the ability to leap over walls or sprint through trees, Uchiha Nan hired a carriage.
However, Uchiha Nan didn't return to the Hokage's office with much fanfare. He planned to go home first, settle Kaede and Suzu, and enjoy the hidden beauty of the Golden House!
Death is inevitable sooner or later, but you must remember that if you can hide until you are fifteen, don't die on the first day of the new year!
Unfortunately, fate had other plans.
Uchiha Nan forgot to change out of his conspicuous Hokage robe and was immediately spotted by Uchiha Tomita.
"Lord Uchiha Kusu, you're back?"
Uchiha Tomita looked surprised and immediately greeted him.
"Yes, I'm back, I'm back."
Uchiha Nan acknowledged, intending not to engage with Uchiha Tomita and headed straight home!
"Who's in this carriage?"
"A gift, a gift, a gift from the daimyo!"
"So many?"
"The daimyo was so generous, there was nothing we could do about it!"
Uchiha Nan lowered his head and quickened his pace.
"Hey! Why are those people over there so clueless? Why don't they help the patriarch hold the carriage and carry the gifts from the Daimyo to the patriarch's house?"
Uchiha Tomita called out to several young Uchiha boys passing by.
Such trivial tasks as pulling a carriage and moving items shouldn't waste Uchiha Nan's time.
Uchiha Tomita was also eager to reconcile the accounts with Uchiha Nan and properly allocate the extra billion taels to the family's finances.
One billion taels is a significant sum, requiring the family's professional accountants considerable effort to fabricate accounts, and the receipts must be stamped by Hokage Uchiha Kusu.
"Okay, Lord Tomita!"
"Coming!"
A few eager young men approached, thrilled to do something for Uchiha Nan.
Not even giving Uchiha Nan a chance to refuse, they seized the reins of the carriage.
Uchiha Nan firmly grasped the reins, waving his hands in refusal.
However, this gesture was merely seen as a token rejection by the young men.
"Clan leader, what gift did the daimyo give? The carriage is full!"
What Uchiha Nan feared most happened. One of the young men, driven by curiosity, opened the curtain.
"Ah!"
Feng and Ling clung to each other. Uchiha Nan had instructed them not to speak without his permission. His serious expression had kept them on edge, and the sudden voices of so many people made them even more nervous, drawing them closer together.
Gift?
Could this really be a gift from the daimyo?
When all the Uchiha boys saw the twin sisters in the carriage, their eyes widened in disbelief.
Patriarch, you sure know how to enjoy life!
It's over!
Uchiha Nan's heart sank, and his integrity shattered at this moment.
"Lord Patriarch, I..." Uchiha Tomita felt a cold sweat on his back. He could never have imagined the gift Uchiha Nan spoke of was this.
He wouldn't be silenced for this, would he?
"What are you looking at? Put down the curtain!"
"Everyone, get out of here!"
Uchiha Nan was furious, driving them away. Naturally, the boys were eager to leave this place of potential trouble, quickly scattering.
"Tomita, stay for a moment."
Uchiha Kusu's words were like a devil's whisper, causing Uchiha Tomita, who had intended to slip away, to halt in his tracks.
"Uchiha Kusu-sama, is there something else?"
"Go prepare a big bed for me, the kind that can sleep three people."
Now that things had come to this, Uchiha Nan decided to embrace the situation fully, planning to provide an explanation for Kaede and Ling's presence.
As Hokage, every move he made was under scrutiny, and he couldn't keep it secret for long, even if he wanted to.
"Alright, Uchiha Kusu-sama!"
Uchiha Tomita sighed inwardly, acknowledging Uchiha Nan's youthful vigor!
Having already entered middle age, he didn't want to discuss the unmentionable difficulties of middle age.
Originally intending to leave, but now stopped by Uchiha Nan, Uchiha Tomita decided to address another matter to avoid future inconvenience.
As Hokage and the leader of the Uchiha clan, Uchiha Nan carried noble blood and already possessed two bloodline limits, so he should marry within the clan.
Only children born with the best blood concentration could naturally possess the greatest talent.
Upon Uchiha Nan's command, Uchiha Tomita could immediately select a young girl from within the clan for Uchiha Nan to marry!
Family elders were urging him, especially those with granddaughters, eager to seize the opportunity. They couldn't delay; by Uchiha Nan's age, their children would already be calling them daddy.
As for the sisters sent by the daimyo, keeping them as aunts in a big family was not uncommon. It wouldn't be easy for them to become the wife of the Uchiha clan leader.
"I know, I know."
Uchiha Nan waved his hand, not intending to argue with Uchiha Tomita on this matter. Feng and Ling were unexpected, and without the ghost mission's reward, he wouldn't have accepted them at all.
But they are quite delightful!
As for a future wife, he'd let things happen naturally, as long as she was pretty. Uchiha Nan didn't dwell on it much.
Seeing Uchiha Nan had no objections, Uchiha Tomita went to prepare the big bed with peace of mind.
After settling Feng and Ling, Uchiha Nan and Uchiha Tomita returned to the Hokage Building to work together. They planned to stamp approval for the fabricated accounts in advance, per the Fire Country's Minister of Finance's request, to avoid future trouble.
"How much?"
"How much did you say?"
"Two billion!"
Uchiha Tomita sat down, stunned. The extra billion was already a pleasant surprise, and now it was doubled.
"Calm down!"
Uchiha Nan waved his hand, urging Uchiha Tomita not to get too excited. Why did he look so naive?
After a trip to the Ministry of Finance of the Land of Fire, Uchiha Nan realized how greedy those officials were and how adept they were at making money.
The tax evasion alone could support another Konoha Village, not to mention the land tax.
Make money, make money, and make money!
Without money, there's no way to develop.
To complete the turntable's tasks, they must find ways to generate income. Relying solely on the Land of Fire's funding won't realize the Konoha dream. It's a tall order to attract ninjas from other villages, even renegades, to join Konoha.
Konoha must become akin to America, drawing countless ninjas to join!
