Chapter 81: Increasing the Number of Tasks
Konoha Village.
Hokage Building.
"Is this your idea? Do you know how much less traffic there is on the Eighth Street now?"
"The mailbox is almost full of complaints from the villagers!"
"There are also several ninjas who have shops there, and they all came to me to complain!"
The third generation knocked on the table, very dissatisfied with Danzo.
Danzo's eyes were full of impatience: "Uchiha has a plan in advance, and I don't know if they will react like this."
The third generation took a puff of cigarette: "You left your roots in the guard team, which is a bad move. It has not been used at all until now."
"Go to the village hall and ask how bad your roots are. Everyone takes a detour when they see them. How can you be a guard team like this?"
Danzo's face was also a little ugly. When cultivating the roots in the past, what they cultivated most was loyalty to him and how to kill people.
Now they are asked to learn how to be guards. It can only be said that people with no emotional intelligence are not made for it.
Danzo hummed: "I'll think of another way."
"Let's withdraw your people from the guard team first?" The third generation Hokage said lightly.
"Impossible!" Danzo suddenly became excited.
He finally inserted the root into the guard team. Although the root did not do well, he had a position and there would be other ways in the future.
The third generation's voice also became cold: "The elder of the Hyuga clan has come to me twice and asked me to exchange for the position of honorary elder. Tell me, this is not what you promised?"
Danzo snorted coldly: "He wants the position of honorary elder before he gets the things?"
The third generation directly picked up a pile of complaints next to him and threw them in front of Danzo.
"Then you deal with it."
Danzo's eyebrows jumped and fell silent.
Seeing that Danzo didn't speak, the third generation also softened his tone.
"The Root base is still sealed now, so it's just sitting there."
"Take the Root away, and I'll give the vacant position to the Great Elder Hyuga, so I can give him an explanation."
Danzo thought for a moment, and thought that the Root was indeed not suitable for the Guard, so it would be fine if he could take back the Root base.
"Then give me the letter of appointment as the Honorary Elder, and leave the name blank."
The Third Generation also agreed without hesitation.
The Daimyo's order must be completed, so this position must be given to Danzo to operate.
...
Under the complaints of countless people, the hated Root Guard was removed.
When the villagers learned that all the guards had been disbanded, they were all excited and rushed to Konoha Eight Streets.
Sure enough, all the Uchiha shops opened as scheduled.
Countless delicacies made everyone rush into the shop.
The bosses of the Uchiha shops said that they could not finish the work, and they could not finish it at all.
…
Hokage Building.
The third generation smoked a cigarette in annoyance.
The Uchiha clan is really stubborn now.
Neither soft nor hard tactics work.
But he himself cannot show up.
Danzo was embarrassed again and stopped for the time being.
Now the Uchiha's non-violent and non-cooperative attitude makes the third generation very difficult.
He asked someone to call Koharu Utatane over, but he didn't expect that Koharu Utatane came after a long time, holding a cup of pearl milk tea in his hand.
This is of course also made by the Uchiha clan, and this drink is very popular.
Soft and sticky pearls and sweet milk tea once became the most sold drink of the Uchiha clan.
Unexpectedly, Koharu Utatane also likes to drink this kind of young people's stuff.
"Elder Koharu, how many tasks are the Uchiha taking now?" The third generation Hokage had to make plans based on the tasks taken by the Uchiha.
Ninjas also need to eat, and the probability of elites appearing in the Uchiha clan is undoubtedly greater than that of civilians from other small clans.
Therefore, the strongest point of the Uchiha clan in the past was the commission earned from completing various tasks.
Utatane Koharu took a sip of milk tea, and the picture was extremely weird with her old face.
"I have brought the statistics of the Uchiha's recent tasks."
The third generation Hokage nodded approvingly. As expected, it was a teammate. When the third generation summoned Utatane Koharu, she knew what it was.
She even prepared everything specially.
The third generation Hokage took the task statistics and looked at it. He frowned slightly. Although more than a hundred elites of the Uchiha have left now.
But there should be more than a hundred left.
But the current monthly task completion volume is less than 30% of the previous one.
"Don't Uchiha accept tasks to support their families now?"
The third generation asked doubtfully.
Utatane Koharu obviously knows more: "Now many Uchiha have children at home, so naturally fewer people accept missions."
The third generation was a little puzzled: "If you want children, shouldn't you work harder?"
Utatane Koharu shook his head: "Huruzen, you don't know."
"Before Xia Mu left, he issued a reward to encourage childbirth. For each child born, a large amount of money was rewarded."
"So, many ninjas don't accept missions anymore and concentrate on having children at home. Even if they accept missions, they accept relatively simple missions."
The third generation Hokage looked at the mission acceptance details and found that there were about fifty Uchiha who were still accepting missions.
On average, fifty people completed seven C-level missions every month, and most of the others were D-level missions.
D-level missions are basically trivial matters, such as finding pets and picking up garbage.
"Large sums of money? How much?"
Utatane Koharu said she didn't know.
The Third Hokage was now pacing back and forth in the room.
Since Uchiha had such an action, it meant that Uchiha really made money in catering.
The pace of Uchiha must be curbed.
"So, change the rules of our task acceptance center."
The Third Hokage thought of an idea.
"Jounin, at least one B-level task or three C-level tasks must be completed every month."
"Especially for Jounin, two C-level tasks or five D-level tasks per month, and for Chunin, at least one C-level task or three D-level tasks."
He didn't stipulate for Genin, because there was a big gap between Genin and Genin.
After listening to this, Koharu Utatane couldn't help but praise the Third Hokage's approach.
This rule is nothing to other ninjas, and they will definitely exceed the amount every month.
But for Uchiha, the requirements have been raised in disguise.
There are very few Genin in Uchiha who are still doing tasks, and most of them have gone to do business.
Those who are not talented and have been Genin for many years without improvement.
There are also many families who have just given birth to children and take them with them.
Now most of the Uchiha who do missions are Chunin and a small number of special Jonin, which are also the backbone of the Uchiha.
If all these Uchiha are sent out to do missions, there will be fewer gatherings in the Uchiha clan.
As long as they don't gather together, a group of Chunin is not very threatening.
"What if they are passive and don't complete it?" asked Koharu Utatane.
The third generation Hokage said lightly: "Then lower their share level and transfer them from the village to outside the village."
There is a share for accepting tasks in the ninja village. The client comes to the ninja village to issue a task, and the money needs to be divided into 20% to the village, and the person who completes the task gets 80%.
It seems a lot, but what is the most important thing in this world, intelligence.
If you want to complete a task, you also need to prepay part of the intelligence fee.
The more detailed the intelligence, the more expensive it is, and because of the prosperity of Konoha Village, there are spies in various places in the entire ninja world.
Konoha Village supports them, and they provide clues to the village.
Of course, you can also sell clues directly, provided that the clues are very valuable.
So the ninjas of this village can get about half of the mission bonus in the end, which is very good.
Ninjas from other villages or wandering ninjas need to share more money, and in the end they may only get 30% or 20%.
In this case, many ninjas still choose to come to the big ninja village to accept missions.
Spend money to buy intelligence, because you can't even find people without intelligence outside, let alone complete the mission.
Under the punishment system of the third generation, if Uchiha still doesn't complete the mission well, the share will be adjusted to that of outside the village, and the income will drop sharply.
Although there are subsidies for having children, you can't keep having children. In the end, Uchiha still has to rely on accepting missions to make a living.
The trick of the third generation is not bad.
If Uchiha accepts it, there will be more people doing the mission, and the Uchiha clan will naturally be more stable.
If Uchiha doesn't accept it, Fugaku will definitely come to talk to him, and then the Third Hokage can make a fuss about the catering controlled by Uchiha.
