This Uchiha is too popular

After some time, Night-Shining Incense had gained the upper hand in Konoha.

It has even begun to spread throughout the entire Land of Fire, and is already showing a trend of unifying the entire Land of Fire market.

However, Ye did not take this lightly.

This victory is only temporary.

Before completely dominating the market of the Land of Fire, any complacency will only give the opponent an opportunity.

The businessman reacted quickly.

Realizing they've found themselves in a passive position, it's estimated that their domestic counterparts will soon be launching new products.

A whole host of similar competing products are likely to appear soon.

By then, although Yeming Group will still have an advantage, it will be unlikely that it can monopolize the market.

That won't do.

So, Ye went directly to the daimyo of the Land of Fire.

After paying a large sum of money, he successfully met the daimyo of the Land of Fire.

The current daimyo of the Land of Fire is an ordinary-looking middle-aged man.

Upon seeing Night, he was somewhat surprised by Night's intentions: "You mean to control other tobacco companies in the Land of Fire, so that only companies with a daimyo's license can produce cigarettes?"

"good."

Ye pulled out a stack of reports and said with a righteous expression, "The cigarette industry is quite dangerous. It contains a lot of harmful ingredients. If unqualified companies also produce cigarettes, it can easily lead to many problems."

"His Highness wouldn't want his people to suffer physical harm, would he?"

I don't want that at all.

In this era, even within the Land of Fire, there are countless ordinary people struggling to survive.

Various bandits and warlords roamed freely, and people were dying everywhere.

Compared to this, what are the minor harms caused by cigarettes?

However, the daimyo of the Land of Fire naturally understood what Yoru meant, so he pretended to look at the reports seriously and nodded with a solemn expression: "What you said is very true, it seems to make a lot of sense."

"However............"

His tone was tactful, as if he was preparing something.

Yoru naturally understood the daimyo's implication, so he proactively handed over a bill: "This is a small token of my appreciation for Your Highness."

Daiming took the bill, glanced at the bill on it, and immediately smiled: "Ah, Mr. Ye is indeed very understanding."

"Great! Your proposal is excellent. I think it can be finalized tomorrow."

"However... I can't guarantee what the specifics will be."

He subtly reminded them, "Even if this order is given, others may not necessarily listen."

For the daimyo of the Land of Fire, issuing a new rule is not a big deal.

The problem is that someone has to listen.

In reality, the daimyo of the Land of Fire actually has very weak control over the Land of Fire.

Within the Land of Fire, warlords are rampant and beyond our control.

To some extent, Konoha can be considered the largest independent force, and even the Daimyo of the Land of Fire has to show respect to the Hokage in order to maintain his rule.

In this situation, even if the Daimyo of the Land of Fire issues a decree, it is estimated that not many people will obey it.

But Ye didn't care about that.

Or perhaps he already knew this was the case, but was able to accept it.

After all, if the daimyo of the Land of Fire weren't in this situation, it wouldn't be easy for him to obtain this promise.

Unlike now, where you can buy things just by spending money.

After receiving orders from the Daimyo of the Land of Fire, he immediately returned to Konoha and met Hiruzen Sarutobi.

"Mr. Shiye."

Hiruzen Sarutobi looked at the night before him and smiled, "What's up? Is there another industry you're interested in investing in?"

During this period of time, Hiruzen Sarutobi's impression of the night was fairly good.

The first thing is investment.

During this period, Ye has invested not only in cigarettes, but also in many other industries.

Recently, several supermarkets opened by the Yoruichi Group in Konoha, and business is booming.

In addition to the endorsement fee, Konoha also received a considerable amount of tax revenue as a result.

Besides money, there's also fame.

During this period, with the Yoruichi Group promoting his work everywhere, Hiruzen Sarutobi's fame has also greatly increased.

In the past, although his name was known to everyone in Konoha, not many people in other parts of the Land of Fire knew him.

After all, he was a ninja, naturally different from ordinary people.

For ordinary people, it's good enough if they know who a famous person is, let alone the name of the Hokage, the leader of the ninja clan.

But things are different now.

Now, within the Land of Fire, as posters and videos featuring Hiruzen Sarutobi have spread, many ordinary citizens have come to know the name Hiruzen Sarutobi.

Having gained both fame and fortune, this is naturally a satisfying result.

Therefore, at this moment, Hiruzen Sarutobi naturally welcomed the arrival of night.

After all, he's the God of Wealth; who wouldn't like him?

"I've come here this time to entrust Konoha with a mission."

He took out the warrant he had obtained from the daimyo and handed it to Hiruzen Sarutobi. Then he said, "Considering the safety of the people, His Highness the daimyo has adopted an approval system for the tobacco industry. Currently, only the Yoru-dake Group, which has been approved by the daimyo, is legal."

"As for other related companies within the Land of Fire, they are all operating illegally now."

"What does Mr. Ye want?"

Hiruzen Sarutobi's heart skipped a beat, and he quickly realized Yoru's purpose.

Sure enough, the next moment, Ye produced a mission assignment letter.

The content is quite simple: Konoha is tasked with cracking down on all extraordinary companies within the Land of Fire.

In short, no illegal tobacco companies are allowed to exist in the Land of Fire!

"This is a bit too broad a target..."

This thought flashed through Hiruzen Sarutobi's mind.

There are quite a few tobacco companies in the Land of Fire.

Many of these companies are backed by powerful figures, such as local nobles or other individuals.

Now, with a single word from the big name, all of these have become illegal businesses.

But it doesn't really matter if it becomes illegal, since there are plenty of things that are theoretically illegal in the Land of Fire.

The key is how to enforce this law.

This is also why Yoru found Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The daimyo of the Land of Fire has the title of administrator, but lacks the power to enforce it.

But it doesn't matter if he lacks the ability to execute.

What the Daimyo of the Land of Fire couldn't do, the Hokage of Konoha could.

This is also why Yoru turned around and looked for Hiruzen Sarutobi.

The development of this world is too abnormal, with nations and ninja villages existing side by side. Such a system would never have been possible under normal circumstances.

But in this world, it is the most natural thing.

However, this isn't bad for Ye.

Because under this system, there are simply too many loopholes to exploit.

Take now, for example.

If the Daimyo and the Hokage were one entity, he definitely wouldn't have achieved his goal so easily.
