Konoha: I, Uchiha, am brimming with positive energy

Chapter 376 Hinata Hyuga Falls into a Trap

Ding Dong!

"Here it comes!"

Boruto Uzumaki arrived at the door, opened it, and found two strangers standing outside, one of whom was carrying a box. He asked, "Who are you looking for?"

Morishita Miura spoke up, "Excuse me, is this Hinata Uzumaki's house? We are staff members from the 'Isolated Love' drama crew. We're here to deliver some fan mail to Mrs. Hinata, and we still have some unpaid wages to settle."

"Oh, please come in. My mom is home."

Upon hearing Miura Morishita's words, Boruto quickly stepped aside to let Miura Morishita and another crew member enter.

After entering the house, Hinata Hyuga also came out of the room. Upon seeing him, Miura Morishita quickly said, "Hello, Mrs. Hinata. I'm here to deliver fan mail to you and to settle your payment for Mrs. Hinata."

Upon hearing this, Hinata Hyuga quickly said, "Please have a seat, Mr. Morishita. I'll go pour you some tea."

"No need to be so polite, Mrs. Hinata. We'll be leaving now that we've delivered the items."

Although Miura Morishita tried his best to refuse, Hinata Hyuga still went to the kitchen to prepare two cups of tea. At this time, Boruto Uzumaki and Himawari Uzumaki also came to the living room, and they were also curious about this matter.

After Hinata Hyuga brought the tea, Miura Morishita got down to business: "Hinata, you are the second lead actress. Your total salary is six million ryo. One million two hundred thousand ryo was paid before filming started, and there is still four million eight hundred thousand ryo to be paid. However, because the drama has received a very good response, Hinata will receive an extra one million ryo as a bonus. This is for everyone in the crew."

After finishing the calculations, Morishita Miura took out a check for 5.8 million ryo and handed it to Hinata Hyuga. Then he took out a document and said, "Mrs. Hinata, if there are no problems, please sign your name here."

"I understand, no problem, thank you Morishita-san."

Hinata Hyuga was somewhat surprised to see so much money, but she still read through the documents and then signed her name.

After Hinata Hyuga signed the document, Miura Morishita also stood up and said, "Now that everything is settled, I should take my leave, Mrs. Hinata."

"Hey, shouldn't we rest a little longer, Morishita-san?"

"No, I need to go elsewhere, so I'll take my leave now. By the way, Mrs. Hinata, this is the first batch of fan letters, and there might be some unpleasant things in them. Just ignore them."

After saying this, Morishita Miura and another crew member got up and left.

As soon as the two left, Boruto couldn't help but say, "Mom, you made so much money from just one TV series? Seven million ryo? That's way more than Dad! Even if he were Hokage, he wouldn't earn as much as you, Mom!"

The Hokage also has a fixed income of 300,000 to 400,000 ryo per month, which is quite high compared to ordinary people. However, it is far less than that of the Jonin who frequently go on missions. If a Jonin works all year round without rest, it is not impossible for him to earn tens of millions of ryo. In this respect, the Hokage cannot compare.

After all, the Hokage can't compete with the Jonin for missions, and protecting the village is the Hokage's duty, so talking about money is a bit vulgar.

"Boruto, you can't say that. Dad is the Hokage who protects the village. If he takes on missions, he'll definitely earn more than Mom."

Before Hinata could finish speaking, Boruto opened the fan mail inbox. Seeing the numerous letters inside, he immediately turned to Hinata and said, "Mom, can I open these for you?"

"Boruto. Fine, you watch it."

Hinata Hyuga was furious. She originally wanted to give Boruto a good talking-to about Naruto's hardships, but seeing Boruto's excited expression, she gave up on lecturing him.

Boruto and Himawari happily opened the fan letter addressed to Hinata Hyuga.

The TV series has only been airing for a few days now, how can an ordinary person send so many fan letters?

This is all an atmosphere created by Uchiha Yoichi, adding a layer of 'burden' to Hinata Hyuga. With so many huge fans supporting her, if Hinata Hyuga were to withdraw from filming, even more 'fans' would send letters to dissuade her.

"Hinata-san, your portrayal of the mother was absolutely fantastic! The emotions were so natural and genuine. I hope to see you continue to play mothers. This is a compliment!"

After reading a letter, Boruto excitedly handed the fan letter to Hinata Hyuga; Hinata took it, glanced at it, and smiled.

Gaining recognition from others is always a joyful thing, and for Hinata Hyuga, who has rarely received recognition from others since childhood, encouragement has an even stronger effect.

The whirlpool sunflower smiled and held up a letter, saying, "Mom, I have one too, it's praising you too."

"Oh, I still have some here. This is also a compliment."

"This is also true, there are so many fan letters praising Mom's acting."

Naruto Uzumaki returned home: "I'm home."

Upon arriving at the restaurant, she found a huge spread of delicious food on the table and couldn't help but ask curiously, "Hinata, why did you make so much good food today?"

"Of course, it's to celebrate Mom becoming a big star! Not only did she send a box of fan mail today, but she also earned seven million taels!"

Boruto Uzumaki said with a happy smile, "Not only that, I also got some pocket money, which I can use to buy ninja cards."

"Seven million ryo? That's impressive, Hinata."

Naruto was also very surprised after hearing this. This was even more profitable than Jonin during wartime. Are actors really that good at making money?

"Has the TV series already started? Boruto, turn on the TV and take a look."

Boruto waved his hand and said, "It's already over. If you want to watch it, Dad, you'll have to wait for the recording or find some time to watch it at 3 PM."

Upon hearing the time, Naruto knew he wouldn't be able to watch it, and chuckled sheepishly, "It's 3 PM? I'll wait until after my vacation to watch it. I really want to watch Hinata's drama. Oh well, there will be other opportunities. Hinata, I hope you continue to improve!"

Afterwards, the Whirlpool family enjoyed dinner amidst laughter and cheerful conversation.

Although Boruto and Himawari stayed with Hiashi Hyuga during filming, Hiashi's doting on his grandson and granddaughter ensured they lived well. Hinata also made time to visit every day, so Boruto and Himawari didn't feel neglected at all. On the contrary, they both hoped Hinata would continue acting in television and become a big star.

Time passed slowly, and more than a month quickly went by.

Aside from the search for the Kara organization, the ninja world was relatively peaceful.

Although four groups of strange beasts have not yet been found, the five great ninja villages have already deployed patrol ninja squads along the border. Once the strange beasts appear, they will be quickly discovered by the ninjas of the five great ninja villages and reported to their villages.

The mobile phone product was also publicly released in the ninja world in just one month. It compressed all the functions of a computer into a palm-sized mobile phone, and could make and receive calls at will. It also had various games and applications developed by the "Manufacturing Assistant", which immediately attracted a lot of people.

Three hundred thousand mobile phones sold out in five days!

The next batch will be produced and sold out in an even shorter time.

Orange Phone has established itself in the ninja world, and Uchiha Yoichi has used it to set up many intelligence gathering points in the ninja world. However, all the information he gathers is handed over to the "Manufacturing Assistant" to help him organize and summarize it.

Now, when Uchiha Yoichi has nothing to do in the morning, he scrolls through his phone to see what's happening in the ninja world.

One day, around 5 a.m.

Uchiha Yoichi was awakened by the sound of running water in the bathroom. He reached out and touched the bedside, only to find that Yamanaka Ino was no longer beside him. She must have taken a recovery pill after waking up before taking a shower.

When Sai is not in the village, Ino Yamanaka will quietly come to Yoichi Uchiha's place after Inojin falls asleep. She is now almost inseparable from Yoichi Uchiha. However, for the sake of Inojin Yamanaka, Ino will still go back before dawn.

After the sound of water stopped, Yamanaka Ino strode out of the bathroom with her long legs, wearing a white bath towel that was almost the same color as her skin.

"Yang Yi-jun, you're awake. I have to go back now. Why don't you rest a little longer?"

Yamanaka Ino smiled and said to Uchiha Yoichi, her flowing golden hair and exquisite face like a blooming flower, and her curvaceous figure made Uchiha Yoichi feel that he could never get enough of her.

As soon as Uchiha Yang got out of bed, he pulled Yamanaka Ino over and said, "Mrs. Ino, let's say good morning and goodbye before you go back."

Noticing Uchiha Yoichi's raised head, Yamanaka Ino's delicate face trembled, and she quickly shook her head, saying, "Let's wait until next time, Yoichi-kun. Inojin is about to wake up, I need to go back quickly."

Boo!

Before she could finish speaking, Yamanaka Ino's delicate face was kissed by Uchiha Yoichi, who then said something that immediately calmed her down: "Mrs. Ino, you're so kind!"

"I can't do anything with you. I'm going back now. You rest a little longer!"

After turning around, Yamanaka Ino smiled and quickly changed her clothes. She then greeted Uchiha Yoichi before leaving.
