Naruto: The Tavern Speech Begins to Make the Land of Rain Great

Fujiwara Akira entered the administrative center and walked to Watanabe Tetsu's office.

He looked around at his surroundings.

Simple yet powerful.

The building's lines convey a sense of breathability and power.

"Please come in."

An unfamiliar voice came from inside the office, and Fujiwara Akira's hand hovered over the doorknob.

He doesn't remember knocking on the door.

How did the other party know he was at the door?

But since Mr. Watanabe Tetsu has said this, it means that he already knows of his existence.

Fujiwara Akira pushed open the door and walked into Watanabe Tetsu's office.

The office is decorated in a luxurious style, but not in a lavish, opulent way.

Instead, it presents a smooth feel that combines technology and simplicity.

The scene is so captivating that it draws you in completely.

On the office desk sits a computer with a huge screen, and televisions hang on either side of the ceiling, displaying the Xiaoguanghui logo in rotation.

Fujiwara Akira fixed his gaze on the man sitting upright in the president's seat.

His body didn't look bulky, but he possessed a sense of power.

He wore a convincing smile.

"Are you Mr. Akira Fujiwara?"

Watanabe Tetsu slowly stood up and raised his hand, gesturing for Fujiwara Akira to sit down in the nearest seat.

"Yes, I am Fujiwara Akira."

"I heard you're planning to do business with Xiaoguang this time?"

"That's right."

"It seems our ninjutsu scroll has attracted you."

Watanabe Tetsu smiled. He had only expected that the ninjutsu scroll would be sought after, but he hadn't expected it to be so fast.

He had only released the ninjutsu scroll less than a week ago, and a big businessman had already contacted him.

Watanabe Toru had investigated the other party's identity.

The Fujiwara clan was a powerful and influential noble family in the Land of Fire.

In this era, no ordinary person would dare to impersonate a nobleman's surname.

Moreover, this applies to businessmen.

After Fujiwara Akira learned about ninjutsu scrolls, he obtained Watanabe Tetsu's contact information from the ninja tool shop owner.

It's called a contact method, but it's really just an address.

For the residents of Xiaoguang City, everyone knows that Watanabe Tetsu works in the administrative center every day.

The pressure of working in a city is immense, and Watanabe has to take a look at many trivial matters.

Although his subordinates in the management department may help provide solutions, he still needs to personally review and approve them before they can be implemented.

Hayakawa Hitomi used to help with this process, but recently she's been busy with the Ninja Academy and internal screening, so this mess has fallen into his hands.

There's no other way but to learn.

Back to the point, once Fujiwara Akira learned of Watanabe Tetsu's location, he immediately went to find him.

He wanted to obtain more detailed information about the ninjutsu scroll to help him decide whether or not to proceed with the trade.

After all, watching videos alone doesn't provide much credibility.

We should at least consider the future prospects.

So what exactly are Xiaoguanghui's executors thinking, and are they willing to hand over the distribution rights to him? That's another question altogether.

With this in mind, Fujiwara Akira personally approached Watanabe Tetsuya.

"Mr. Watanabe, the ninjutsu scroll you developed is very good, but I have a few small questions I would like to ask you."

Although Fujiwara Akira's attitude carried an aristocratic air, his tone was very pleasant.

"Please speak."

"Theoretically, can a ninjutsu scroll hold all ninjutsu techniques?"

This is a very insightful question, and it even touches on some cutting-edge theories.

"After our continuous attempts, we found that most ninjutsu can be contained by changing the material of the scroll and the choice of sealing techniques."

"However, the highest level of ninjutsu we have tried so far is only B-rank ninjutsu, and it is a relatively mild water-style ninjutsu."

Is that so?

Fujiwara Akira was worried that the only ninjutsu scrolls he had previously used were the Great Fireball Technique and the Great Breakthrough Technique.

But since he said that...

"Excuse me, but have you developed any other ninjutsu scrolls besides the Great Fireball Technique and the Great Breakthrough Technique?"

Fujiwara Akira was answered with a smile from Watanabe Tetsu.

That smile also gave Fujiwara Akira the answer.

In this way, the diversity of ninjutsu scrolls can be guaranteed.

So...

"Mr. Watanabe, what is the production efficiency of this type of roller?"

"After expanding our production lines, our production efficiency will only increase, but I cannot disclose the specific figures to you."

"I understand."

Fujiwara Akira nodded; these were questions that were considered trade secrets.

It was already good enough that the other party could provide an answer; he didn't expect Watanabe Tetsu to tell him everything in detail.

"One last question, what are Xiaoguang's thoughts on ninjutsu scrolls?"

This concerns the other party's attitude towards ninjutsu scrolls.

If the other party doesn't have a positive outlook and doesn't care about ninjutsu scrolls, then Fujiwara Akira naturally wouldn't want to join this project.

But instead of Watanabe Tetsu's answer, he received a question in return.

"Lord Fujiwara Akira, who do you think should be sold the ninjutsu scrolls?"

Fujiwara Akira stared intently into Watanabe Tetsu's eyes, seeing confidence in the latter's gaze.

And then, as if possessed, he uttered two words.

"noble."

"noble."

The two of them gave the same answer in unison.

Fujiwara Akira heard the same answer, and his heart skipped a beat.

He actually thought that way too?

"So, Lord Fujiwara Akira, what are you still worried about?"

Fujiwara Akira clenched his fist.

"I was just being stupid."

"So, Mr. Fujiwara Akira, can our cooperation continue?"

"certainly."

Fujiwara Akira raised a finger and said, word by word.

"I think this kind of ninjutsu scroll is extremely tempting to nobles."

"Nobles are not short of money, but they lack a sense of security. Ninjutsu scrolls, which are powerful tools that can be controlled by themselves, are exactly what nobles need."

"Therefore, we can sell ninjutsu scrolls to nobles in various regions."

Fujiwara Akira became more and more confident as he spoke, a smile spreading across his face.

"And I myself happen to be the eldest son of the Fujiwara clan of the Land of Fire, so I can spread your ninjutsu scrolls very quickly within the circle of nobles."

Watanabe Tetsu nodded; the other person's thoughts were extremely similar to his own.

"A very good idea. In addition, we can sell ninjutsu scrolls of different strengths to nobles of different classes according to their level. The more powerful the noble, the more powerful the ninjutsu they can buy."

Good idea.

Fujiwara Akira's eyes lit up.

This arrangement further solidified ninjutsu scrolls as a tool for competition among nobles.

"good."

"It seems we've reached some consensus?"

"Of course, Mr. Watanabe."

Watanabe Tetsuya, looking at the somewhat excited Fujiwara Akira, added.

"I have a few more requests."

"Please speak."

"First, for the sake of easier revenue sharing, I hope we can sell these reels under the name of a single company."

Fujiwara Akira nodded; this request was reasonable.

"No problem, I will register the company's address in Xiaoguang City."

"Secondly, Xiaoguang will need to own 70% of the company's shares and take 70% of the profits for continued research and development and manufacturing."

In other words, Xiaoguang will take 70% of the profits.

...

After several rounds of negotiations, the two finally finalized the cooperation agreement.

Fujiwara Akira invested 100 million ryo, and Akira contributed technology as shares, jointly establishing the company "Fujiwara Technology," whose main business was selling ninjutsu scrolls.

Xiaoguang will be responsible for the research and development and production of ninjutsu scrolls, while Fujiwara Technology will be responsible for transportation and sales.

It is worth mentioning that Xiaoguang will also be responsible for safety issues in the transportation and sales process.

It's like hiring a security guard.

Fujiwara Technology holds the exclusive agency rights for the Land of Fire, has obtained distribution rights for the Land of Fire, and can distribute distribution channels.

In terms of shareholding, Xiaoguang will hold 65 percent and Fujiwara Akira will hold 35 percent.

This also represents the profit-sharing ratio between the two parties.

Although from an equity perspective, Akira Fujiwara was at a disadvantage.

However, the technology for ninjutsu scrolls is monopolized, and Fujiwara Akira doesn't need to worry about the production and research and development.

He only needs to handle transportation and sales.

This is equivalent to taking on the role of the general agent for the Land of Fire.

Therefore, in Fujiwara Akira's view, all of this was acceptable.

It's actually not bad.

For Watanabe Tetsuya, he not only reduced the costs of the Akatsuki Association through the company, but also acquired a company with a market value of 300 million ryo.

Most importantly, he only granted an agency to the Land of Fire, while other countries...

You could find businessmen from other regions to start other companies.

If Fujiwara Akira doesn't have the ability to manage this business, then he will naturally consider other businessmen.

Of course, it would be best if Fujiwara Akira could manage the business in the Land of Fire in an orderly manner.

Besides this, Watanabe Toru had another consideration.

The Xiaoguang Society grew larger and larger, and also became increasingly bloated.

The economy of the Land of Rain cannot rely solely on the Dawn Society.

Therefore, businesses are a good entry point.

In short, this was a deal that made both parties happy.
