"Workers' cooperative? So the fire lord is worried about this kind of thing?"

Located in a castle-style mansion, big businessmen from the isolated island gather here.

The conference room is very large and the decoration is very gorgeous.

The castle, built with huge sums of money, reflects the extraordinary status of the owner of the castle, both in appearance and interior.

Although it has been decided to completely eliminate the forces belonging to the Kingdom of Demons in the Kingdom of Waves, there is no accurate conclusion on how to do this and how to implement the plan.

Because the will of the businessmen has not been unified.

Half of the businessmen plan to drive the Kingdom of Ghosts out of the Country of Waves through normal business competition.

The other half of the businessmen plan to use radical methods and adopt efficient and direct assassination plans to deter the Kingdom of Ghosts.

Such discussions have always been the focus of discussion among businessmen.

In particular, the Fire Country urged them to resolve the workers' cooperative established by the Ghost Country in the Wave Country as soon as possible, which made the businessmen's discussions become more intense.

"I don't think there is any need to worry about this kind of thing. With our strength, we don't need to be too radical. We can achieve our goal by directly launching a business war against the Ziyuan Flower Chamber of Commerce."

"But this will take a long time. We don't have much time to waste now. No one knows how the civil war in the Rain Country will end. If the Ghost Country succeeds in involving the Fire Country in the Rain Country,

If we don’t have enough energy, then for us, our actions will be extremely passive.”

Although the interests of the merchant alliance on the isolated island and the Fire Country are not completely consistent, they are currently in a cooperative relationship.

If the Fire Country is at a disadvantage in the fight against the Ghost Country, then their plan to build the Wave Country into a second paradise island will undoubtedly end in failure.

"Not only the Fire Nation, but the Earth Nation is also opposed to the Demon Nation's entry into the Rain Nation. I think it would be better to expel the Demon Nation's forces in the Land of Waves through a stable commercial war. It might be too radical.

He will be severely beaten by the Kingdom of Ghosts just like the Kingdom of Wind a few months ago."

Not all businessmen like to take risks.

After planning has finally reached this point, the best way is to stabilize your own advantages.

Although the goal can be achieved quickly through assassination, no matter whether it succeeds or fails, it may cause more serious problems in the future.

"No, normal business war progresses too slowly, and the Aster Flower Chamber of Commerce is not a small chamber of commerce. Once a business war starts, it will not be limited to the country of Waves, and it will easily form a stalemate."

The businessmen each hold their own opinions. Although they all work for the alliance, disagreements may arise between them due to differences of opinion.

"Then, one faction focuses on commercial warfare, and the other plots assassination plans. How about implementing the two strategies together?"

Finally, a businessman had no choice but to speak out and expressed his opinion.

There are many businessmen with radical ideas, and it is obviously unrealistic to persuade these people to give up in a short time.

Continuing to argue like this can easily waste good opportunities.

The Kingdom of Ghosts has begun to press forward. If their forces cannot be unified, they will be defeated by the Kingdoms of Ghosts one by one.

Only by uniting can they show the power that makes the country of ghosts fearful.

This is also the reason why they are not worried that the Kingdom of Ghosts will use force to destroy them.

The chain of interests behind them is complex, involving the underground black market and many countries, including officials from some big countries. If the Demon Country wants to use force to eliminate them, it will be equivalent to declaring war on many countries in the ninja world.

It will be truly isolated internationally.

As long as the decision-makers in the Kingdom of Ghosts are smarter, they will never use violence foolishly.

Therefore, the assassination plan of the radical businessman is not without merit.

"Should the two strategies be carried out together? This is a good idea. However, I declare in advance that if you want to carry out an assassination, do not kill this girl, but capture her alive. She is Chiba, the daughter of Chiba Shiraishi and Uchiha Ruri.

Yiji. If we accidentally kill her, it will be very difficult to deal with the subsequent problems."

A businessman took out a photo and placed it on the table for other businessmen to see.

"In other words, she will be used as a bargaining chip in the end, right?"

The businessmen in charge of the assassination plan looked at the girl in the photo with interest.

"I wonder if the Sharingan has been awakened? After all, this is a rare blood inheritance limit. However, even if I catch her, I can't use her for my own use. It's a pity."

Many businessmen showed regret.

They are all frequent visitors to the Lonely Island Arena, and have recruited many unique ninjas under their command.

In particular, ninjas who master secret techniques and blood inheritance limit abilities are their favorite type of ninja.

Because secret techniques and blood inheritance limits mean special, and special means powerful.

Coupled with their wealth, sooner or later, the merchant alliance on the isolated island will become a super-large force that controls the structure of the ninja world, and they no longer need to look at the big powers to speak.

Just like the rapidly rising ghost country today.

It's just that Ichiki's identity is special. Her parents are both famous ninjas in the ninja world. They can't take her for their own use, and they can't kill her hastily, otherwise it will attract crazy revenge from the country of ghosts.

And by capturing Yiji alive, they will have the confidence to bargain with the Kingdom of Ghosts, giving them room to turn things around, so that they will not be at a disadvantage when negotiating with the Kingdom of Ghosts.

"Then, the assassination plan will be left to you. Prioritize getting rid of Kado around her, and the worker representative Dazna. I believe that as long as she loses her official spokesperson, she will have to come forward to face us personally.

.”

"Don't worry about this. This time we will dispatch our elite ninjas to ensure that the plan is foolproof."

"That side of the fire daimyo..."

"A workers' and citizens' cooperative? When a rabble gathers together, it will always be just a rabble. As long as we expel the Kingdom of Demons from the Country of Waves as soon as possible, the Fire Daimyo will have nothing to say."

Different from the attitude of the Fire Nation daimyo, the businessmen believed that workers and farmers were just a bunch of rabble, and no matter how many they gathered together, they could not change their nature as a rabble.

Although some businessmen think it is inappropriate, most businessmen do not feel that the workers' and peasants' cooperative society will play any important role in the subsequent game, and think that there is no need to pay attention to it.

The most important thing right now is to expel the Kingdom of Demons from the Kingdom of Waves, rather than wasting energy on a group of rabble.

"Dad, it seems that our family can get through this winter easily."

At Tazuna's house, her daughter Tsunami said to Tazuna very happily.

Because Dazna joined the Workers' and People's Cooperative, his family quickly received feedback on the Workers' and People's Cooperative's preferential policies for member families.

For example, when purchasing materials or using money to buy daily necessities, any family member who joins a cooperative will enjoy internal discounts and benefits. And if it is a family that has problems in living, the cooperative will distribute necessary daily necessities for free, but in contrast, it is necessary to

Compensation through labor also indirectly solves the pain of unemployment for poor families.

This is a real discount, and Tsunami, who has been worrying about how to spend this winter, can't help but have a smile on her face.

Dazna picked up the bottle and took a sip of wine, then wiped the drink that accidentally dripped from the corner of his mouth and said: "I didn't expect that Miss Yiji really planned to redeem these preferential policies. I always felt that she was more famous than us.

More concerned about the lives of those of us at the bottom."

At first, out of gratitude to Yiji, Dazna led some workers to join the so-called worker-democracy cooperative.

However, with the effective implementation of the cooperative's preferential policies, Dazna did not need to personally publicize it. The workers who had received the benefits had already begun to actively promote the workers' cooperative.

This gave Tatsuna the illusion that Ichiki was the famous name of their country of Waves.

No...even a famous person would not be able to spread money in such a bold way.

For Dazna, as long as taxes are not increased, it is time to thank the nobles for their mercy.

"It would be nice if Miss Yi Ji could be the daimyo of our country. What do you think, dad?"

Tsunami said jokingly.

"Tsunami, you really dare to think about it. It would be quite troublesome if others heard you."

Dazna looked helplessly at his daughter.

"I know, I won't talk nonsense everywhere."

"Compared to this, I think it's better for you to find a husband to rely on. If I can't work anymore, at least there will be someone in the family to support me."

Dazna said intentionally or unintentionally.

Tsunami glared at Tazuna.

"Dad, I don't want to think about this kind of thing now. I have to take care of Inari, so how can I have time to look for a man? Besides, who would fall in love with a widow like me whose husband has died?"

Although she is not yet thirty, Tsunami is still capable of giving birth, but her status as a widow is destined not to be accepted by many men.

Tsunami has already made preparations to become a widow in the future.

As for the issue of remarriage, Tsunami has long since given up any hope.

Dazna smiled bitterly, seeing that her daughter was so determined that she would not mention the matter of letting her consider remarrying again.

"Speaking of which, where is Inari?"

Dazna asked.

"He went out to play with his friends and will be back before dinner."

Tsunami answered.

"Children are really carefree."

"You are still young after all."
