Chapter 539 Copying Homework
Seizing power is a very subtle word.
Most of the time, the meaning of this word corresponds to some dirty and dark reality.
Perhaps for many people in the Whirlpool Country, Minato Namikaze, the representative of Konoha, is the dark side of reality.
This is what many young people in the Whirlpool Country think now.
They will not think about the fact that the Hidden Mist Village attacked... sneak attacked the Whirlpool Country decades ago and almost wiped out the Whirlpool Clan.
They only think that the Hidden Mist Village stationed troops in the Whirlpool Country and still firmly held the supreme ruling power, which made some ambitious people very uncomfortable.
Don't worry about what if the Hidden Mist Village suddenly attacked the Whirlpool Country after they succeeded in seizing power and the garrisoned troops were withdrawn to the Hidden Mist Village.
They don't care about these at all. They only know that your Hidden Mist Village has seized the power they deserve.
Yes, in their opinion, the power of the Whirlpool Country should be theirs as a matter of course.
As for what if they are targeted by other major powers after they get power...
What does it matter? At worst, we can just cede land and pay compensation. As long as we can sit in that position, it doesn't matter how much compensation we have to pay.
Yuya actually knows this idea, or in other words, which village doesn't have such a person?
Well... except for their Konoha.
The position of Hokage in their Konoha has become a tiankeng because Yuya did too well. Whoever succeeds has to compare with Yuya. Who the hell wants to succeed?
Well, in short, this matter is a trouble for Minato Namikaze, but it is also a trouble that Minato Namikaze must solve.
However, with Uzumaki Kushina here, it must not be too difficult to solve the problem.
And this is why Mitomon En chose to let Minato Namikaze come to the Whirlpool Country to succeed him.
Uzumaki Kushina's status is too noble. On the Whirlpool Country side, Uzumaki Kushina's appearance is simply a dimensionality reduction attack.
Now on the Whirlpool Country side, all kinds of false accusations and rumors against Minato Namikaze have disappeared overnight.
Various TV stations also began to discuss what new policies the newly appointed Governor of the Whirlpool Country would have.
Anyway, in public, no one dared to lead the rhythm.
Well, neither did they do it secretly.
Minato Namikaze's status as the head of the Anbu was not easy.
If you mess with Minato Namikaze in public, Minato Namikaze would not do anything to you.
But if you mess with him secretly...
Isn't this a step into the trap? Hey, this is what I am most familiar with.
So for a while, the Whirlpool Country suddenly became very harmonious and friendly.
This made Minato Namikaze and Uzumaki Kushina laugh.
But the two also knew that this was just the beginning.
The biting dog does not bark, and these people will openly cause him a lot of trouble in the future.
But these... Minato Namikaze had already thought of them.
"Governor, these are all the tax returns for the past year, please take a look."
An official of the Whirlpool Country very respectfully handed a pile of reports to Minato Namikaze.
Namikaze Minato was silent, then he chuckled: "I know, you go down first."
After everyone left, Namikaze Minato gestured with his hands to show the thickness of some of these reports.
My goodness, they are all as thick as his fist.
The Whirlpool Country is not very big, and because of the suppression of Mitomon Yan, the industrial development is not very strong, so the Whirlpool Country is more focused on developing various agricultural products.
Let's not talk about how to develop Namikaze Minato's tertiary industry economic development strategy for now.
How can these tax reports be so thick?
He understands that the Konoha Village is so thick, after all, a factory has to make a separate report.
But your Whirlpool Country doesn't have many factories...
It's impossible... Everything is stuffed in.
Namikaze Minato took out a report at random and opened it, then laughed.
Really...
This is a report made by a landlord with 30 acres of land.
Generally speaking, this kind of agricultural report does not need to be reported at all. What is planted on one acre of land, how much is planted, how much is sold, and then count it, and then calculate agricultural taxes. It doesn't need to be so troublesome.
The reason why these guys made so many reports is nothing more than to disgust Minato Namikaze.
Aren't you the governor?
Aren't you the emperor of the Whirlpool Country?
Aren't you the most powerful?
Okay~ We will come to you for everything, is this okay?
Do you think it's inappropriate?
You must be joking.
You are the governor of the Whirlpool Country, and theoretically everything should be under your jurisdiction.
We are just asking you to perform your duties now, how can you say that we did it on purpose?
Minato Namikaze just found it funny. He used to hear the previous minister Uchiha Kagami tell him and the previous Anbu minister Hatake Sakumo that Yuya was targeted by the ninja families in the village when he just came to power in Konoha Village. They found a lot of things for Yuya to do every day. Minato Namikaze didn't notice anything at that time.
But now...
This moment is just like that moment.
Minato Namikaze touched his chin and began to think, what did Minister Kagami say when he ate skewers and drank with them about the problems solved by the Hokage?
Oh, now I remember, Hokage-sama directly took care of all government affairs.
At the beginning, when Yuya just came to power, the Sarutobi, Shimura, Hyuga and other families found a lot of troubles for Yuya to deal with every day, just like what Minato Namikaze is doing now. The tax report directly calculates every amount of money for you clearly, and as for whether the total is correct, you can calculate it yourself.
Then, Yuya directly handled all the tax reports in minutes, and then other families asked him for various data indicators of land measurement and mineral mining.
At that time, Konoha Village did not have so many factories, and the development of minerals and land was the top priority of the village. In theory, such things should be personally present no matter what, right?
As a result, Yuya took a piece of paper and scribbled on it - of course, people later knew that it was Hokage Yuya who used mathematics to list various equations to calculate - and then came to two numerical conclusions.
He solved the numbers of mineral development and land enclosure without leaving home.
After that, other families found him a lot of troubles, the most of which was the various Konoha funds applied by various families.
Finally, Yuya rejected it and said that the dividends would be distributed uniformly at the end of the year. Until recently, after all the ninja families gave their clan lands to Yuya, Yuya cancelled the annual year-end dividends, but in contrast, some factories and real estate in various aspects of Konoha Village were directly transferred to the major ninja families.
Basically, the money distributed this time is about more than 100 billion taels, but there will be no need to distribute dividends at the end of the year every year in the future, which is not a loss in the long run.
Namikaze Minato put away his thoughtful expression.
Putting aside the outrageous speed of the current Hokage in handling government affairs, if Namikaze Minato wants to copy homework...
It seems that it is not impossible.
Win over a group and strike a group...
Okay~
So, Namikaze Minato issued a decree the next day:
The land tax system change plan of the Whirlpool Country in the next three years.
In short, some lands will not be taxed in the future, well, not a penny.
As for which lands...
Namikaze Minato said that I haven't thought about it yet. There are too many lands to choose from at the moment, and I don't know who to choose.
Some big landlords in the Whirlpool Kingdom were immediately furious.
This is a real benefit.
If you don't fight...
Are you still a human being?
