Chapter 84 Snow Country(3/3)
"Well... how to put it, although I can't imagine Tsunade-sama's specific intentions, there are some places worth learning from. For example, this kind of children's mental health hospital can help children's physical and mental health and prevent children from being overly traumatized.
, will go astray in the future.”
Shikaku answered to the point.
At the same time, he also became interested in the Kingdom of Ghosts.
Regarding children's mental health care, there are medical ninjas who are as powerful as Tsunade in the Ghost Country, and they see the essence of things that many people don't notice.
Those children who have not grown up are the real future of the country and the village.
It can be said that children's mental health care is very important to the profession of ninja.
"Is that so? Then I'll ask the daimyo for instructions."
Konoha's development funds all come from the fire country daimyo and nobles. Without their assistance, Konoha's development cannot be said to be completely stagnant, but most industries will stagnate.
For example, during the Second Ninja War, the medical reform proposed by Tsunade could not have been carried out without the great help of the daimyo.
It just so happens that he also needs a sufficient performance to stabilize his position and make more ninjas in the village trust his ability to govern.
"Wait, not now."
Shikaku interrupted.
"Why?"
"Because the funds involved are too huge. Currently, a lot of Konoha's funds, due to the aftermath of the war, are invested in cultivating ninja strength and providing pensions. There is not much development funds left."
"How much do you need?"
Minato paused for a moment and asked Shikaku.
"The initial investment is the total military expenditure of Konoha for ten years."
Shikaku gave an almost despairing figure.
Minato's hand trembled when he picked up the pen.
"so much?"
"If you want to complete the restructuring mentioned in Tsunade-sama's letter, the initial investment will only be a lot more. As for the later stage, it will be an astronomical figure. And money alone is not enough, you need appropriate systems and professionals. All of these in Konoha
No, this will be another huge expense."
Shikaku's face was heavy.
Konoha needs to cultivate and recuperate now, but now due to the impact of the war, Konoha is still in dire straits. How can there be any spare money to develop other industries.
"The neutral country, the ghost country, turns out to be so rich."
"It should be related to the previous war."
Shikaku thought for a moment and answered.
"war?"
"Yes. In Konoha, we now have a total of six branches of Shionhua Pharmaceutical Company. The quality of the medicines is excellent and the types are complete. Whether they are medicines needed by ninjas or medicines used by ordinary people, they are all available. Take breast enlargement
As far as medicine and cosmetics are concerned...ahem."
Shikaku gave Minato a look.
Opening up the market with the Great Ninja World War, Shionhua Pharmaceutical Company has completed all layouts from military to civilian use, and has completely taken root in various countries in the Ninja World, becoming a giant in the pharmaceutical industry.
Even Konoha must be polite to Shionhua Pharmaceutical Company.
Minato smiled bitterly.
It is true that so-called breast enlargement and beauty drugs are not very attractive to men. However, for women, even many female ninjas in Konoha have become obsessed with this kind of medicine, which is evident.
Body and face are the lifeblood of a woman.
At his home, Kushina bought several bottles of these high-end medicines to contribute to the construction and development of the Kingdom of Ghosts.
And this is just Konoha, the other four ninja villages, and important towns in other countries, I think the situation is similar.
"I understand. Let's discuss the restructuring at the jounin meeting in a few years. The daimyo also needs to get permission."
After sitting in the Hokage's seat, Minato understood how heavy the burden on the Hokage was, which was completely different from what he had imagined when he was a child.
The Hokage doesn't just do whatever he wants, especially the pressure exerted by the daimyo can make it difficult for Konoha to move forward.
Moreover, Konoha is not peaceful now.
Although he had successfully restricted the movements of Nebe and Danzo before, Minato understood that he and the Sandaime Hiruzen had already fallen out.
The recruitment of ANBU personnel has yet to bear fruit.
There are still very few people who can use it.
Inogacho needs to stay by his side to guard against the counterattack of Hiruzen, the Third Hokage, and the only one he can use is Kakashi.
Now he can't even solve the problem within Konoha. The various tempting restructuring policies mentioned in Tsunade's letter may not be officially implemented even after a few years.
Because dealing with the internal affairs of Konoha and having to deal with the daimyo for a long time is more difficult than dealing with the internal chaos of Konoha.
Minato started to have a headache.
Seeing Minato's distress, Shikaku was about to offer words of comfort when there was a knock on the door.
"Please come in."
Minato calmed down and let the person who knocked on the door come in.
A chuunin entered and presented a scroll.
"Hokage-sama, this is an urgent letter sent from the Land of Snow."
"Snow Country? Where is the messenger?"
Minato reacted.
"He was being rescued at the hospital. He was covered in injuries when he came."
The chuunin replied.
"It seems like something happened inside the Kingdom of Snow."
Shikaku touched his chin and made a guess.
Minato opened the scroll, and after reading the contents, he looked solemn and said to the chuunin:
"Call Kakashi Jounin who is on vacation. I have an important task for him."
"Yes, Hokage-sama."
The chuunin bowed respectfully.
"It seems that Kakashi's vacation has been ruined again. He has only just recovered from his injury."
Shikaku had a smile on his face.
Minato sighed and looked out the window at the scenery of Konoha.
"There is no way, there are too many restrictions on me there, Kakashi is the only candidate."
"Indeed. However, the Country of Snow and the Country of Ghosts are adjacent. After Kakashi completes his mission, let him go to the Country of Ghosts to investigate. I am also curious about this country."
