Chapter 224: Konoha's 42-Year Urban Legend [Additional 2,000 Words]
"Hahahaha!"
A hearty laugh came from the Hokage's office.
Yuya was particularly satisfied when he saw the number of graduates from the Konoha Ninja School this year on the newspaper in his hand.
After more than a decade of development, the total population of Konoha Village has exceeded three million. No matter how many of them are temporary residents or residents from the outer city, they should be counted as they live in the inner city.
And the ninja school finally ushered in a concentrated outbreak after many years of silence.
The number of students enrolled in the ninja school this year...
More than 500 people.
500 people!
Although this number seems small, in fact, these 500 people may just be the beginning.
After all, after more than a decade of development, many people will not have children immediately after they become adults, or wait until their jobs are stable, or they are not yet of age.
Nara Shika also nodded in response, and half an hour later, Sarutobi Hiruzen came to the office.
The basic industry also needs to be upgraded, not to mention the game manufacturing and related development industries that Yuya is trying to develop.
Well, it can't keep decreasing~
Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hands: "Hey, Sandaime, it's not right to say that. You and I both know that there is no such person around me."
Yuya looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen in a daze, then looked at him suspiciously, touched his beard, and looked at Sarutobi Hiruzen with a suspicious face: "This sentence... Did someone teach you to say this?"
Theoretically speaking, although the data of newborns and married population each year cannot reflect some problems, there is a corresponding relationship between the newborn population and the married population in 20 years.
But...
"Shikaya, ask Sarutobi Hiruzen to come over later."
As for the work pressure that may be caused by population...
As for what problems may arise, we have to analyze specific problems.
Nara Shikaya glanced at Yuya, and felt that Yuya, who was laughing just now, suddenly fell into silence and looked ugly.
Has the film industry been rolled out?
As for the rest, it depends on the benevolent.
As for the Akimichi clan, you will definitely not be treated unfairly if you follow them.
If that's the case, then there's something wrong.
Before Yuya finished speaking, Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hands again and again: "Wait, wait, Sandaime, you can't take advantage of us like this, right?! Our Sarutobi clan has always been the most cooperative clan with you, and now our clan land is only one-third of what it used to be!"
But just because he doesn't touch it doesn't mean Yuya won't assign him tasks.
But he still won't touch this brow.
Looking at the other party's obviously rounded body and the goatee on his face, Yuya narrowed his eyes: "Recently... Brother Hiruzen has been having a good life."
Anyway, Yuya is very satisfied with the number of students enrolled in the ninja school.
Of course, the calculation method here is very complicated, and a single year cannot explain any specific situation.
These things combined are enough to solve the employment problem of millions of people, not to mention that the current working population in Konoha's inner city is not that large.
Yuya was dissatisfied: "That's still one-third. Let me tell you, this organization is incredible. If it is built, your Sarutobi clan will be bound to it, and it will be bound to Konoha Village. Isn't this better than just one family?!"
"Well, but you still have to pay attention to losing weight. Health is the most important thing. Um, cough, that, the Sarutobi family's clan land should still be there. I have a new organization that needs to be established..."
Thinking of those small amounts of money, Sarutobi Hiruzen could only smile ingratiatingly: "Third generation, it is true that what you said is right, but the problem is... our family must have a piece of land that belongs to us, otherwise, otherwise, otherwise we don't even have a place to worship our ancestors, what's the matter?"
Maybe there will be more newborns in the second year?
And with the increasing number of ninjas, many development plans of Konoha Village can be put on the agenda.
If it doesn't work, then develop sports, with lottery, stadiums, teams, support, etc. corresponding to competitive sports...
Yuya reacted.
It's worth it that he has not cut off the high welfare and high treatment of ninjas.
For example, if a country has 10 million births per year, then based on this ratio, we can roughly estimate what the situation will be in 20 years.
No matter what, there is still a lack of people...
The high-end manufacturing industry can only produce extremely simple computers and mobile phones now, which can never be exported to the high-end market.
After thinking about it, Youya's good mood just now became uncomfortable again for some reason.
It's like there is a gold mine in front of you, but you don't have the tools to mine it. That feeling can drive a person crazy.
Sarutobi Hiruzen looked constipated. You are so shameless. How can there be such a shameless person?
You know whether you are targeting me or not!
The Sarutobi clan still waved their hands: "No, no, no, no matter what you say! If our family continues like this, we will not be able to survive in Konoha."
Ah, yes, Sarutobi Hiruzen, who is in charge of news media, also has a deputy named Akimichi Tofu.
Sarutobi Hiruzen waved his hands: "Oh, don't mention it. Third generation, you know Tofu's personality. He really treats meat as food."
Youya was even more dissatisfied: "You said that, it's like I'm targeting your ninja family, God and conscience! I have always been based on the goal of common development and common prosperity! And ask yourself, the benefits I have given you over the years are not 30 billion, but 20 billion, right? Don't you like this money?"
Five hundred ninjas this year means that at least 400 ninjas will graduate in three years, and this number will increase in the future.
Youya thought about it carefully and nodded: "Yes, Akimichi Qufeng doesn't have this brain."
Sarutobi Hiruzen was immediately ashamed: Qufeng, he slandered you! He said you don't have a brain!
But thinking of the benefits that the Akimichi clan gets from Youya every year...
Sarutobi Hiruzen estimated that Akimichi Qufeng would only happily hold a chicken leg and nod his head after hearing it: Ah, yes, yes, yes, Lord Hokage is right.
After all, the Akimichi clan is not as populous as the Sarutobi clan. The Akimichi clan only has those people and the clan territory is not large. Even if they become Yuya's target, they must be behind the Sarutobi, Shimura, Hyuga, Uchiha and other clans.
Now Yuya and them can't have any conflicts at all.
Fortunately...
I have a good wife.
Sarutobi Hiruzen was secretly happy. Although Sarutobi Biwako was the wife chosen by the family, in fact, the two had met many times before getting married, but their feelings were just so-so.
However, after getting married, Sarutobi Hiruzen was gradually controlled by Sarutobi Biwako.
After all, many of Sarutobi Hiruzen's decisions are now made after discussing with Sarutobi Biwako. If it were his own personality, he might gradually give in in the confrontation with Yuya.
After all, Yuya really holds the righteousness of the entire village in his hands, and a sentence for the development of the village is enough to kill the game.
Fortunately, this time he took out his ultimate move with the help of Sarutobi Biwako.
That is the sacrifice to the ancestors.
If the ninja family's sacrifice is strictly carried out according to the regulations, it will be very grand, expensive, lively, troublesome, and have many procedures. Therefore, generally speaking, many ninja families in Konoha Village will not hold family sacrifices in a big way.
But just because they are too lazy to do it doesn't mean that Yuya can say something like "You used to fool around, why do you want to hold a big one when I requisition your land?" Such words, if Yuya says this, it would be to accuse their ninja family of wasting manpower and material resources.
But Yuya is not right in this regard.
After all, no matter which country it is, if you say that you shouldn't sacrifice to your ancestors, you are a complete idiot, no matter how much you think in your heart, it will definitely not work.
Yuya is helpless, and after a round of thinking, he finds that this reason is really impeccable.
He can't really say that the Sarutobi clan should not sacrifice to their ancestors...
Then Sarutobi Hiruzen is right when he and he fall out...
Sighing, Yuya finally decided to go the old way.
So he handed Sarutobi Hiruzen a plan: "I must build and complete this organization this year. You can take a look. It's your freedom to give it land or not, but it will definitely have many benefits if it is built.
Take it back and take a look. If you still don't agree, I will go to other families."
Sarutobi Hiruzen frowned and took over Yuya's plan, then said goodbye and left.
After Sarutobi Hiruzen left, Nara Deer licked his lips and said to Yuya: "We Nara clan have a grassland in the northeast of the village and raise a group of deer there..."
Yuya waved his hand: "It's better to use it as a nature reserve. It's too remote to build this..."
After that, Yuya muttered: "Although it really can't be built in the center of the inner city."
...
After taking the plan back, Sarutobi Hiruzen and his wife looked at it.
Yuya's original intention was to let Sarutobi Hiruzen and the elders of the Sarutobi clan discuss these things.
But for Sarutobi Hiruzen, the elders of the Sarutobi clan are all greedy for money, and they can't walk when they see money. Youya has always been generous with money, so even if he has to discuss with the elders, he should discuss it with his wife first.
His two sons, Shinnosuke and Asuma, Shinnosuke will go to the ninja school next year. Recently, he is being sent to a math cram school by Sarutobi Hiruzen, and he is full of boredom in life.
Since Shinnosuke wanted Sai to draw a moving paper man wife for him last time and became famous, he has matured a lot now after being mixed doubles by Sarutobi Hiruzen and Sarutobi Biwako.
But no matter how mature you are, you still can't do math.
So you still have to take cram school.
Sarutobi Biwako took the plan from Sarutobi Hiruzen and opened it. He didn't see anything else. The string of numbers in bold made Sarutobi Biwako's heart jump violently even if he was calm.
Ten billion taels...
And they clearly stated that they would invest this much money every year...
If it is really implemented, then this organization will indeed be the most important organization in the entire Konoha as Yuya said, and it will not be considered as burying the clan land of the Sarutobi clan. It is even possible that the Sarutobi clan will be tied to it, and all interests will be guaranteed...
But...
If it is really agreed, the clan land of the Sarutobi clan will be completely divided. In the future, before calling themselves, the members of the Sarutobi clan will first say that they are from Konoha Village, and then say that they are from the Sarutobi clan...
Although this is indeed the case, in that case, the Sarutobi clan would be completely bound to Konoha...
Lake Sarutobi Biwa was suddenly as big as one head and two big ones.
She had helped Hiruzen Sarutobi handle many work matters in the past few years, and Yuya's matter was the most difficult.
It's not that Yuya is smarter than her or is up to no good.
On the contrary, Yu Ya plays the cards and the cards in his hand every time.
His goals are very clear, his conditions are also very clear, and the benefits he can provide are also extremely clear.
The main theme is a conspiracy with no solution.
No one doesn’t like money, and Youya has always been generous with his money...
She read the plan carefully. An hour later, Sarutobi Biwako sighed helplessly. She covered the plan in her hand and could vaguely see what was in the top title [University... Construction... ] words.
Sarutobi Biwako handed the plan to Sarutobi Hiruzen: "All the regulations are fine. Of course, anyone with a discerning eye can see his purpose. The question is... can the family elders resist this temptation?"
Sarutobi Hiruzen bit his finger. Indeed, if this so-called university project was successfully implemented, the figure of 10 billion per year would be enough to drive those clan elders crazy.
The crux of the matter is...
The Sarutobi clan...is really out of land...
…
Now, in the forty-two years of Konoha, with the increase in population in the inner city of Konoha Village, the original Hyuga Kindergarten already feels a little stretched.
However, regarding this phenomenon, the Hyuga clan said that they could expand, and then they bought two pieces of land in the West City and North City of Konoha's inner city and opened two kindergarten branches.
These two places are basically either high-ranking politicians or wealthy people.
Therefore, the fees for Hyuga Kindergarten are also extremely high.
There are also many children in the east and south districts of the inner city, so naturally someone will occupy this empty market.
Among them is a Southeast Kindergarten. Although its geographical location is not very good, that is because the principal of this kindergarten is indeed not a wealthy person like the Hyuga clan. He directly buys land and houses in prime locations in the West and North Districts and opens up several floors. Financial resources to convert housing into kindergarten.
Although it had a difficult start, this year's Southeast Kindergarten was much more lively than there were only a few students in the first year.
"Are you the new students entering the kindergarten this year?! My name is Sarutobi Asuma! I am the boss of this kindergarten!" A six-year-old kid pointed at himself with his thumb in an arrogant look.
Then, a girl of about twenty years old pinched her ears with her hands.
"Wow! It hurts, it hurts..."
The girl smiled and scolded: "You only came here last year, so you are not allowed to say such things."
Then the girl looked at the thirty children in front of her, her eyes turned into crescent moons. The fees for Southeast Kindergarten were indeed not high. On the contrary, the location of the kindergarten was not very good, but because of the current building cost of Konoha Village, It was built in a unified manner, so it does not appear to be in disrepair. It is just that the location is not good, and the house is still very new.
Although there was a premonition that many new students would enroll this year, the fact that there were more than thirty children was beyond the girl's expectations.
"Xiaoyu, don't restrain these children too much. Now that they are here with us, just live their lives freely every day."
A middle-aged uncle walked to the gate. The ferocious scars on his face made the children who were still a little noisy suddenly quiet down. No one dared to say a word.
"You are the one, Uncle Jian, who deliberately scares the children. Be careful not to have nightmares when you sleep at night." The girl spoke softly with a smile on her lips.
Then she looked at the thirty or so children in front of her with soft eyes: "Hello children, my name is Yakushi Nonou. In the next two years, let's spend every day together~"
"..."
There was silence.
The scar-faced man suddenly raised his eyebrows and snorted: "Huh?"
All the children were immediately frightened and said in unison: "Yes!!!"
The girl glanced at the uncle angrily, shook her head, and entered the kindergarten with more than thirty children.
…
The first day of kindergarten is over, and many parents have come to pick up their children after school.
And when school was over, the girl took the list, read the names one by one, and then asked them to leave with their parents.
The next day, the girl came to the classroom with a box of paper-cutting and a box of plasticine, and taught the little girl to cut paper and the little boy to knead the plasticine.
The third day, the fourth day...
Until week two…
After a week of getting along, the girl has become a teacher recognized by this group of children.
Naturally, some children will confide their troubles to girls.
then……
"Old, teacher... I found that I seem to have fallen in love with someone!" A five-year-old little girl said to the pharmacist Nonoyu with a serious face and a blush.
Pharmacist Nonoyu was stunned at that time, his eyes became beady eyes.
"Huh? You, you have fallen in love with...who?" Medicine Master Nonoyu barely controlled the smile on his face, and his heart was already a little broken.
She has never been in a relationship at such an old age, so why would a five-year-old girl like her confide such troubles to her? ! ! !
The girl's face turned red and she spoke softly in the ear of pharmacist Nonoyu.
Pharmacist Nono turned his head stiffly and saw Asuma, who was trying to be cool, holding a flower in his hand and approaching a girl with fiery red hair.
Then the girl in front of Pharmacist Nono burst into tears.
Pharmacist Nono was immediately panicked: "Shizune, little Shizune, don't cry!"
Asuma heard it and looked over here and pointed at this place and laughed: "Wow hahaha, look! Shizune is crying! Hahaha, come and laugh at her!"
The little girl with fiery red hair punched Asuma on the head: "Stupid Asuma!"
Then she came over and pulled up the short-haired girl: "Let's go! Ignore this idiot!"
Little Shizune looked at each other with admiration, and Asuma covered his head with tears in his eyes and gritted his teeth: "Damn it! Yuhi Kurenai, you violent girl! I will never send you flowers again!"
The parents who came to pick up their children from school that night did not feel embarrassed when they heard their children's farce in the kindergarten, but were extremely happy.
Yakushi Nono sighed after a busy day.
This kindergarten...
It's so colorful every day...
It's just too tiring.
The next day, another little girl found her: "Teacher... Are you free? I have something to ask you."
Yakushi Nono's smile froze:
No way? ! Still coming? !
Fortunately, the little girl did not have the love troubles of childhood, but it was indeed a very serious problem.
"Teacher, I have been feeling that someone is watching me in secret recently..." The little girl looked at Yakushi Nono with tears in her eyes.
Yakushi Nono's expression suddenly became serious: "Watching you? Wait, you mean... someone is following you?!"
With the development of Konoha Village, after people no longer have to worry about food, clothing and daily expenses, there will always be some people who develop in an inexplicable direction.
A few years ago, there was a case of molesting a little girl in Konoha Village.
Just because he didn't succeed, he was only sentenced to 20 years, and it is obvious that he will be given a reduced sentence, and he will probably serve 15 or even 12 years. If he behaves better, he can be released in 10 years.
After all, he didn't succeed. Even if everyone hates him, Yuya is helpless. He can't ask God to see this child molester.
But it was also from this year that the Uchiha Security Department had a heavier task. After all, if a bastard succeeds, it will completely ruin a child's life.
Security Department: ? ? ? (We are already busy enough!)
And now...
Will there be a second bastard like this?
Pharmacist Nono looked at the little girl very seriously: "Lin, remember, don't stay at home alone in the future! If your parents are on vacation and you are alone, call the teacher! The teacher will pick you up!"
As he said, Pharmacist Nono wrote his mobile phone number on a piece of paper and stuffed it into Nohara Lin's pocket, looking at her seriously: "Have you remembered? Definitely! Don't stay at home alone or in dangerous places!"
Nohara Lin nodded heavily with tears in her eyes.
Then she turned around and continued to play.
Pharmacist Nono breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he still had to give top priority to the safety education of children.
But this was just the beginning...
As Lin grew up day by day, time came to the end of the 42nd year of Konoha, and Lin felt that the gaze behind her not only did not disappear, but became more and more solid.
Even Pharmacist Nono, who occasionally went home with Lin, and Lin's parents, could occasionally notice this gaze.
So, at the end of the 42nd year of Konoha, an urban legend spread in Konoha Village.
That is, there is a devil's gaze in the dark that specifically watches little girls. If a little girl is playful or disobedient and ends up alone, then a devil that specifically catches such disobedient little girls will rush out and take her away!
Once the legend came out, countless little girls became unusually well-behaved.
It brought blessings to the majority of Konoha families.
