"Ahead is Tansho City."

The next day of camping, early morning.

After walking for a few miles, Uchiha Sasuke suddenly stopped and spoke to Kakuzu beside him.

Last night, Kakuzu stayed up all night by the campfire, studying the economics book that Sasuke gave him.

The more he read, the more he felt that the wisdom contained in it was profound and mysterious.

I have been completely absorbed by the theoretical world described in it.

This guy named Mankiw's understanding of money has far exceeded the scope of "respect" that Kakuzu pursues.

Instead, I truly entered the world of money and wanted to make friends with money.

Early this morning, even though he was on his way, Kakuzu was absent-minded, repeatedly chewing over the wonderful points in the book in his mind.

At this moment, when Kakuzu heard Uchiha Sasuke suddenly speak, he did not react at all, but just continued to walk forward mechanically.

Uchiha Sasuke glanced back at the three Team 7 disciples behind him, raised his hand and motioned for them to wait where they were.

Afterwards, Sasuke followed Kakuzu for a while.

After they had created enough distance, Uchiha Sasuke called out Kakuzu's name again.

"Hey!"

At this moment, Kakuzu finally woke up from his dream and asked blankly:

"how?

"Were you talking to me just now?"

"if not."

Uchiha Sasuke nodded and looked back at the three disciples behind him to make sure that they could not hear what he said.

Then he turned around and said to Jiaodu seriously:

“Mr. Kakuzu, as you can see.

"In Konoha right now, I'm afraid there aren't many people like me who can accommodate you."

So?

Kakuzu was not unexpected about what Sasuke said.

Before this, he did have some worries in his heart.

But at the moment, all his attention was completely attracted by the contents of the secret book.

At this time, when Kakuzu heard Uchiha Sasuke bring up this matter again, he just remained silent.

He had an expression of "so what".

Before this, you, Uchiha Sasuke, said it yourself—

"That's your business."

“Up ahead, in the city of Short Book, there are some old friends of mine.

"The remnants of Konoha's allies, the Hidden Mist Village, are currently stationed and gathering in the city.

"I think I'd like you to get together with them first. Nominally, you'll join the Hidden Mist Village first.

"It would be good for us to take care of each other."

"Well?"

Hearing this, Jiaodu couldn't help but feel moved.

Speaking of which, everyone in the ninja world knows that Orochimaru attacked the Hidden Mist Village.

But the remnants of the Kirigakure are in Tansho Castle, next to the Konohagakure Village.

However, very few people know this information.

By the way, the head of Mei Terumi was auctioned at the gold exchange for "sixty million taels".

That guy Orochimaru is really generous when he attacks.

"So, you want me to go hunt for the bounty on that Mei Terumi's head?"

Thinking of this, Kakuzu had an idea.

He couldn't help but lower his voice and approached Sasuke and asked.

"Ah? What are you talking about?"

Uchiha Sasuke was startled, and then immediately said seriously:

"The job I want to give you is to manage money, not to make money, do you understand?

"What does the book say? Macroeconomics, is it just about killing people everywhere?

"Can we achieve world peace by completing tasks?"

Hearing the reprimand in Uchiha Sasuke's words, Kakuzu suddenly felt very ashamed.

Unexpectedly, I spent half the night studying.

But his understanding of this work is still not as profound as that of Uchiha Sasuke.

It seems that the feelings gained while reading a book are one and the same.

But when he returned to real life, Kakuzu couldn't help but return to the path dependence of thinking inertia that he had developed over the years.

Alas, I still have to learn.

“Ah, you’re right.

"I'm confused."

Kakuzu nodded shamefully.

In my heart, I just wanted to find a quiet place to continue reading.

"Well, your desire to work is at least good."

Uchiha Sasuke comforted her awkwardly.

It’s great to be a boss.

But given Sasuke's personality and relevant experience, he is still relatively lacking.

"I was thinking that you had seen it in Konoha. That kid's attitude towards you wouldn't be just an isolated case."

Uchiha Sasuke cleared his throat and explained in a businesslike manner:

"If you join Konoha directly from Akatsuki, there will be a lot of resistance, it will be relatively difficult and will not be good for you.

"But if, nominally, we join Konoha from the Hidden Mist Village, the procedure will be much better, relatively speaking.

"For the majority of ninjas who don't know the truth, there will be fewer unnecessary rumors.

"This will surely be of great benefit to your future work."

On the other side, Kakuzu had a look of sudden realization.

"I see."

Kakuzu nodded in approval, and couldn't help but sigh in his heart once again.

This young man is so powerful, yet he is still so prudent and thoughtful in his actions.

This humble state of mind and sophisticated attitude towards things are enough to make many older ninjas feel ashamed.

"Besides, I won't be able to use you in the short term."

Uchiha Sasuke continued to speak:

“It can take as short as half a year or as slow as a year and a half.

“In short, within two years, I will definitely take care of many things in the village.

“By then, you can officially take over the relevant economic work.

"Before that, you will stay in Kirigakure for a while."

"What about this book?"

Kakuzu asked immediately.

"Of course I leave it to you."

Uchiha Sasuke replied.

After a pause, Sasuke seemed to remember something and continued speaking quickly:

"However, speaking of which, in the short term, I still have a task for you."

"You say."

Kakuzu answered solemnly.

Hearing that there was a mission to be done, Kakuzu felt more at ease.

You still have to do something.

Otherwise, I would not feel at ease holding the savings book with 30 million taels in my hands.

"Well, it's about this book."

Uchiha Sasuke felt a little embarrassed, but he continued with a cold face:

“The contents of this book are, uh, somewhat difficult to understand.

“I hope you can read this book carefully and understand it thoroughly.

"Then, I reorganized the book into a language that the ninjas could understand.

"If you want, I can contact the bookseller to help you publish it."

Although he was paid, Sasuke still felt a little embarrassed as it was the first time he ordered someone around like this.

Having said this, Uchiha Sasuke suddenly remembered the bookseller who was the channel for Gama-sensei to publish his novels.
