Train to Another World.

Chapter 156 The Value of Jerky

"Huh...huh..."

Kakashi and Wei Changfeng lay on the tatami, sweating profusely and gasping for breath.

Li Zhuoguang sat aside and said sarcastically: "I haven't even tried my best yet, and you guys can't do it. You are so young, why are you so weak?"

The two people on the ground were so tired that they could hardly move their fingers, and of course they didn't have the energy to retort.

Ten minutes ago, Li Zhuoguang and Kakashi discussed putting a few big ones in the Kamui Space for Obito to taste.

It just so happened that Wei Changfeng's ability "禴寺禴·龙神熮禳" was most suitable for this kind of thing. So Li Zhuoguang summoned Wei Changfeng and asked him to activate his ability as much as possible, borrowing Li Zhuoguang's power to manifest the red tank incarnation.

Kakashi, on the other hand, used Kamui to collect the manifested incarnations one by one into the Kamui space.

Although the incarnation made of crimson magic power was very violent, even Wei Changfeng could hardly command the incarnation.

But it just so happened that the real owner, Li Zhuoguang, was here. As the subject of the borrowed power, Li Zhuoguang and Wei Changfeng worked together to calm the incarnations down so that they could hide honestly in the divine power space and not make any noise.

Originally, Li Zhuoguang thought that the borrowed power was free, so he planned to get a reinforcement platoon in. However, both Wei Changfeng's mind ability and Kakashi's pupil technique consumed energy.

When the fifth incarnation was brought in, the two were already panting heavily. When the eighth incarnation was brought in, the two felt like they were about to die. After the tenth incarnation, no matter how Li Zhuoguang pushed them, or how he fed them dried meat and military ration pills, the two could no longer use their abilities.

"Tsk, you guys are so weak." Li Zhuoguang pulled open Kakashi's mask and stuffed another handful of military ration pills into his mouth. Wei Changfeng also had his mouth filled with jerky.

"Take a break, then you two can go out. Don't let people outside see you like this."

They both nodded with difficulty and supported each other to sit up. Kakashi glanced at the jerky in Li Zhuoguang's hand, hesitated for a moment and asked: "I would like to ask the Minister, where did you buy this jerky?"

"It's a rare material and hard to get." As he said that, Li Zhuoguang stuffed a piece of dried meat into Huang Shiren's hand.

Kakashi looked at Huang Shiren who was chewing the dried meat with relish, and grinned, "Is this how you use rare supplies?"

Huang Shiren was chewing half of the dried meat when he suddenly noticed Kakashi who had been staring at him. He knew this man, and he liked him very much because of his white hair. He also gave him chicken to eat.

Huang Shiren hesitated for a moment, stretched out his little paw, and handed the half-eaten piece of jerky to Kakashi: "Here you go."

Kakashi waved his hands awkwardly, declining Huang Shiren's kindness. Did he, a Konoha technician, have no dignity? If the news of him snatching food from a pet got out, where would his dignity be?
Kakashi said to Li Zhuoguang without giving up: "Although I can't compare with the Minister, I still have some savings in the past few years. I want to buy some jerky from the Minister, and I hope you can spare it."

Li Zhuoguang waved his hand: "This meat jerky is just hard to get here, but it's not a rare thing for me. What I'm curious about is that you seem to know the benefits of this meat jerky. Where have you seen it?"

Kakashi said truthfully: "When your little pet came to deliver a letter to me, he gave my...ninja dog a small piece of dried meat. After eating it, its strength improved a lot. So, I want to buy some."

Li Zhuoguang raised his eyebrows. This dried meat could be purchased in large quantities through Qin Daniu, and by following Li Zhuoguang, if nothing else, at least there would be a lot of gold.

Therefore, old passengers always had dried meat in their hands, and they usually used dried meat as dry food and nutritional supplements. So over time, Li Zhuoguang subconsciously thought that dried meat was a very common thing.

But now, after communicating with Kakashi, Li Zhuoguang recalled it again. In Qin Daniu's world, this wild beast meat runs through the lives of all warriors. It is the capital for countless forces of all sizes to survive and is an important resource that needs to be fought for. The reason why they can easily obtain a large amount of dried meat is that in that world, the purchasing power of gold is strong, and they also have a lot of gold.

The second reason is that Qin Daniu's master is strong enough. Even though Qin Daniu purchased a large amount of wild beast meat and had already revealed his wealth, no one dared to focus on him.

Moreover, the meat of wild beasts is useful to all individuals who have eaten it. It seems that the meat of wild beasts is not that simple.

Li Zhuoguang asked calmly, "You said your ninja dog's strength has improved. How did it improve?"

Kakashi answered honestly: "Both my physical strength and chakra have improved a lot."

Li Zhuoguang took out a bag of dried meat and handed it to Kakashi: "I won't sell it. I never thought of doing this business, but I can give you some. By the way, please go and see if Naruto and the others have finished their meeting. Ask him to meet me after the meeting."

"Thank you!" Kakashi took the jerky, stood up and was about to go out, but he seemed to remember something: "By the way, the lava glass, moonstone, snow crystal flower seeds and other items you asked for are still in my house. You can ask someone to pick them up from my place when it's convenient."

"What it is?"

"…That's the quest item for the quest you posted."

Li Zhuoguang then remembered that in order to create an election advantage for Naruto, he asked Kakashi to run around the ninja world and deliver letters for him.

In order to avoid Danzo's suspicion, he issued a commission to collect rare items and assigned Kakashi to complete it. In order to give him a reason to travel around the ninja world, Li Zhuoguang specially filled in some specialties from all over the ninja world.

"Those are just a cover, you can handle it yourself." Li Zhuoguang said casually.

Kakashi nodded. In fact, he had guessed it a long time ago, but out of his professional ethics as a ninja, he needed to confirm it in person.

After a while, Kakashi came with Naruto and Danzo. Li Zhuoguang looked over with doubt. He was sure that Kakashi only found Naruto.

Danzo explained, "I saw that the Minister had given some instructions, so I followed to see if there was anything I could do to help."

This was just an excuse. Several countries sent letters and gifts of thanks together, which was a very honorable thing even for the Fire Nation, given its status.

So of course the Fire Nation has to promote it.

As the location of the main thanksgiving subject, Konoha unsurprisingly became the first stop for the publicity work.

As the Hokage election was getting closer, so many things happened one after another, and Danzo was feeling very nervous.

Now, apart from the local faction in Konoha Village that is affiliated with him, his only advantage is Li Zhuoguang, the finance minister who "takes money to do things" and is very principled.

As bad as it was, he had just thrown a god to the other party a few days ago, and it was discovered. Fortunately, after returning to Konoha, the other party accepted all the valuable gifts he prepared. At least on the surface, the matter was covered.

However, after hearing that Li Zhuoguang had an appointment with Uzumaki Naruto, he became nervous and wanted to follow to see what was going on.
