Chapter 69: Comeback

Hokage Building.

Sandai looked through the documents on the table and found everything he could find.

From the flow of people to the price per customer, we have made long-term statistics. It seems that Danzo has been thinking about Uchiha's store for more than a day or two.

Danzo was too well prepared and wrote everything clearly, even the Third Hokage didn't expect.

Uchiha's income is actually so high.

According to statistics, Konoha's funds are more than ten times more than Uchiha's.

But the money does not belong to the Third Hokage alone, and he himself cannot completely decide where to spend it.

All expenses such as village construction, ninja wages, occult research, ANBU support, etc. need to go out from here.

But Uchiha is different. 90% of the money earned by the Uchiha clan belongs to Fugaku, the clan leader, and he can spend it wherever he wants.

If this continues, will the Uchiha become guests in the future?

All ninjas are based on profit. If the money is available, it is not impossible to vote for Uchiha Fugaku.

Sandai didn't expect the matter to be so serious, and a sense of urgency suddenly rose in his heart.

Just when he was about to think about how to deal with it, he found Danzo standing in front of him.

The Third Hokage smiled inwardly.

Well, professional matters should be left to professionals.

Danzo was familiar with him after all.

Sandai's pipe tapped on the paper: "What are you going to do?"

Danzo said: "My people have tried to imitate it, but the taste is always a little worse."

"There are indeed some secret recipes that I don't know, but the taste just can't compare to them."

Seeing Danzo's ambitious look, the third generation couldn't help but said: "You're not going to do it forcefully, you can't handle their Susanoo."

Danzo's face turned green: "Huh, I won't fight them head-on."

Danzo shook the document in his hand: "Hiruzen, you can use supporting them as an excuse to ask Fugaku to share the secret recipe."

Sandai frowned: "I'm afraid Fugaku won't agree."

Danzo smiled sinisterly: "If he doesn't agree, there are ways to make him agree."

The third generation seemed to be thinking: "What do you want?"

Danzo said without hesitation: "Restore the roots."

The third generation paced back and forth for a long time, and finally his eyes glanced at the huge number in the column of Uchiha family income.

Sandai shook his head and said: "It is impossible to restore the roots."

Danzo didn't speak, he knew that the roots would not be restored that easily, but after all, the Daimyo gave him the task.

The third generation wanted to see the daimyo's face no matter what, so he knew that the third generation still had the last part to say.

The third generation continued: "I can say hello to those ninjas and do not prohibit them from cooperating with you."

Danzo said with some disdain: "That's not enough, Hiruzen."

Sandai thought for a moment: "I'll give you two more honorary elder positions."

"Honorary elder." Danzo thought for a moment.

Honorary elder is a position held by every great ninja clan except the Uchiha clan.

He has no real power, but he has the right to make suggestions. When voting for Hokage, the votes he holds in his hand are also crucial.

Already considered a powerful class.

To sit in the position of advisory elder, an honorary elder is a must.

The Third Hokage obviously gave Danzo the position of an honorary elder, and the other honorary elder was an asset for Danzo's operation.

Danzo was satisfied and asked again: "Hiruzen, who do you think is the right other honorary elder?"

Sandai took a puff of cigarette and said: "The security department can move."

Danzo thought for a moment.

The security department is now under the control of Hyuga Hizashi. The clan of the Hyuga clan has long been outdated. If it can be beneficial...

It just so happened that Danzo was placed at the root of the security team, and because Nakamura Kazuya was expelled, everything became a dead end.

As for Hizashi's love for Natsuki, he kept this group of people suppressed to death and only allowed them to patrol Konoha's first to fourth streets every day.

They are not allowed to interfere anywhere else.

If an elder from the Hyuga Clan intervenes, can the roots be moved?

…

Hokage Building.

Fugaku suddenly received an invitation from the Third Hokage.

So I came to the Hokage Building early.

Entering the office, the Third Hokage was already handling official business.

This is the first time to see the Third Hokage since the last Kumogakure incident.

"Lord the Third Hokage." Fugaku's mood was different now, and he no longer had any emotions towards the Third Hokage.

When you see the destruction of the ninja world in the future, it is difficult for the shadow of a village to make Fugaku feel respected.

The Third Hokage has become a good old man over the years. He said with a smile: "Fugaku is here, sit down."

Fugaku sat down as he was told.

"I wonder what the Third Generation wants to do with me."

The third generation picked up the tea cup: "Fugaku, we may not have seen each other for a long time. It seems that your Uchiha clan has been developing very well recently. You, the clan leader, have contributed a lot to this."

Fugaku said calmly: "It's okay. These are all Xia Mu's contribution and have nothing to do with me."

The third generation clearly felt the change in Fugaku's attitude.

He said happily: "All your Uchiha restaurants are popular in Konoha Village."

Fugaku didn't answer.

The third generation added: "Fugaku, the village is ready to strongly support your shop."

Fugaku raised his eyebrows: "How are you going to support the Third Generation?"

The third generation took out a floor plan of Konoha Village and drew a circle on it with his finger.

"All the [Chinese Food] shops are concentrated on the eighth street, and the other streets still have a lot of people. This is a big waste."

The Third Hokage said seriously.

"I plan to give you eight shops on each street from the first to the seventh street, so that your shops can cover the entire Konoha."

Fugaku followed the Third Hokage's finger and saw that the circle drawn by the Third Hokage basically included all the commercial streets of Konoha.

If all these streets were opened with [Chinese Food] shops, the Uchiha clan's income would undoubtedly double.

But...

Fugaku said to the Third Hokage with some apology on his face: "Third Hokage, we Uchiha don't have so many people, and we Uchiha can't take care of so many shops."

The Third Hokage nodded: "I have thought of this problem a long time ago, so I will send people to manage the shops, and you Uchiha only need to receive technical training."

"In the end, we can share the profits equally, what do you think, Fugaku?"

Fugaku sneered in his heart, it turned out that he coveted our secret recipe.

"No need, Hokage, I think Uchiha has enough business, and I don't have so much energy to take care of other things. I don't plan to open more stores for the time being."

Fugaku stood up.

"The clan is busy, if there is nothing else, I will go back first."

After saying that, Fugaku walked out.

Although the current Uchiha's income is less than one-tenth of Konoha on the surface, Xia Mu left so much franchise fee from the Land of Fields before.

Now Fugaku is very confident and doesn't need to worry about the face of the Third Hokage.

The third generation did not stop Fugaku, but calmly collected the map.

This time he just used courtesy first and then force. He already knew that he could not control the current Uchiha like he did in the past.
