Chapter 442: Faced with children’s education issues, the concessions parents can make are unimaginable

"Senior Shouyi, you represent several other seniors. I will tell you some things. To be honest, I am short of money and I am afraid I cannot afford to hire an intelligence team."

In a tea room, Tatsuma showed an apologetic expression. In front of him was a ninja who was about 50 years old. A ninja of this age can be said to have lived a long life. Of course, he has also reached the age of retirement.

He was one of the intelligence personnel given by Sarutobi Hiruzen, and he was also the person who came to discuss with Tatsuma as a representative.

There are a total of six retired intelligence ninjas that Tatsuma can accept this time, all of whom have retired from the lurking work in Iwagakure Village for many years. If there are only six people, then Tatsuma can still afford to hire them if he is tighter.

But the problem is that people do not live independently in the world, and neither do these six retired ninjas. They have their own families, which means that they themselves will also consider whether their commissions can afford to support their families.

Especially the descendants of ninjas will most likely follow the path of ninjas, and the cost of training each ninja is extremely high. Tatsuma also took this into consideration, so he could not ask these retired ninjas to reduce their commissions.

Not to mention, at the lower level of these people, there are also intelligence personnel of their own to support. This is an expense that even Tatsuma can't afford.

After hearing Tatsuma's words, Shouyi took a sip of tea and said, "Tatsuma-sama, in your eyes, are we such short-sighted people?"

Regardless of whether Tatsuma is retired or not, it is not too much for him to call Tatsuma "sama" at this time. When he was in service, his ninja level was only a chuunin, and after retirement, he was just a commoner. Tatsuma could afford this call.

Of course, Tatsuma, in turn, would call them seniors, which was considered mutual respect.

When Tatsuma heard Shi Yi's words, a trace of doubt appeared on his face, and he said: "It's just that I am short-sighted. I don't understand what you mean, senior."

"Haha~ Yes, you are still young now, let alone a child. People say you don't even have time to find a partner."

Shuiyi spoke in a relaxed tone, "Young people only need to think about themselves. Those with families need to think about their families, especially their children. Any study and training is actually about exchanging money for a future."

We are ready to serve you without charging commission. "

Tatsuma became more and more confused. He had saved these people's lives, but he would not let them do anything wrong and exchange money for their future.
A flash of thought was caught by Tatsuma, and a look of understanding appeared on Tatsuma's face. Shouyi gave Tatsuma more tea and said: "It seems that you have understood that this money can be What is taken out can also be taken back.

Becoming your subordinate will bring a lot of extra help to our children, from the class assignment when they enter school to the assignment of mentoring Jonin after graduation. This is something we cannot get with our own money. "

Chenma frowned and said, "I have no influence in this regard."

Tatsuma said, he also stopped, and Shiyi said with a smile: "When I first decided to retire, Lord Toifu asked Lord Sakumo to contact us, and we also had a pleasant conversation with Lord Toifu.

Finally, through the introduction of Mr. Tifeng, our information was handed over to you from Mr. Hokage. If it was just for money, we would go directly to you or other jounin-sama. "

Hearing this, Tatsuma also completely reacted. He thought he was here to discuss with Shiyi, but in fact, someone had already negotiated it for him. Behind his own unawareness, there was another link. The people in Yihuan are paying for him.

Tatsuma rarely experienced this feeling. The last time was when Mito Uzumaki was alive. As long as he returned home, he didn't need to worry about anything else. Someone would naturally take care of it.

It's just that after Uzumaki Mito passed away, he returned to his previous life where he had to do everything by himself. After all, his teacher didn't know how to take care of others, but needed others to take care of him.

Unexpectedly, after getting acquainted with Akimichi Tifeng, this feeling of someone settling everything came back. He sighed with emotion, took a sip of tea, and Tatsuma said:
"What the seniors said are actually invisible benefits, but life requires more real money. In this aspect, I can't provide much."

"It is normal for young people to have no savings. It was only after I started my own family that I gradually understood the importance of saving money. The money we have saved over the years is enough to raise our children." It’s time to stand alone.”

Shuiyi waved his hand, Chenma was still a little embarrassed. Shuiyi added: "You don't need to give us commissions at a fixed period. If you really want to give it, you can give us the reward after we obtain the information you need. .

As for how much to pay, you can refer to the village's task rewards and pay according to the difficulty, or it doesn't matter if you pay a little less. After all, we have all retired, and it doesn't matter if the benefits are lower. "

"Okay, then I feel sorry for the seniors. If the seniors have other needs, just explain them to me and I will try my best to satisfy them."

Having said that, if Tatsuma refuses to accept this kindness, he will seem to be taking advantage and being obedient. Shouyi nodded and said: "Then let's talk about the division of labor among us.

Are you more interested in internal intelligence or information from outside the village?Or other countries?Ninja Village? "

Tatsuma doesn't have a particularly urgent need for information right now, or rather the information he needs. He currently only has a rudimentary intelligence network that cannot be sustained.

Tatsuma is currently most interested in two things, one is the whereabouts of Uchiha Madara, and the other is the real-time itinerary of the Sandaime Kazekage. However, these two things are probably difficult to collect even by using the entire village's intelligence system, let alone He's talking about this grass-roots team.Therefore, Tatsuma just asked Shiyi to go to the western and northwest borders to establish the intelligence network. The specific arrangements will be made after the intelligence network is completed.

Tatsuma was more familiar with these preliminary tasks than Tatsuma, so Tatsuma did not make detailed arrangements and ended the meeting after setting the direction.

"Then let's do this for now. After we arrange it, we will report back to you."

Toshiro stood up, said goodbye to Tatsuma, and left. The moment he disappeared into the crowd, Tatsuma couldn't even find Suki. This was the ability of an old intelligence ninja.

After the meeting, Tatsuma also went back to the ANBU base. Although he had asked Hiruzen Sarutobi to report on his work yesterday, the paper report still had to be submitted for archiving.

However, as soon as he returned to the ANBU base and opened the door of his office, Tatsuma felt that something was not right. There were two towering malicious forces rushing towards him in the ANBU base.

The chakra in his body became highly active, and Tatsuma looked towards the malicious places. Shikaku was one of them, and the other was Kushina.

"Good afternoon."

Tatsuma forcefully said hello, approached Shikaku and the two, and asked, "What are you busy with?"

"The village has decided to establish four teams: sealing, medical, perception and logistics to form the fourth team. Please entrust me. Lord Hokage has asked me to be responsible for the establishment."

Shikaku gritted his teeth and said, Tatsuma nodded, finally understanding the reason for Shikaku's overwhelming malice.

However, Tatsuma looked at Kushina and said, "You're welcome, I helped you get another round of assessment opportunities."

"boom!"

But Kushina didn't have any gratitude. She slapped the table and said, "Huh! Who wants you to fight for it?! Among us who were eliminated from the assessment yesterday, I was the only one who got the chance to take the second assessment. You know What are they talking about me?!"

"Maybe you don't know that the person who was removed yesterday was really removed because of his lack of ability, and you were specifically told by the Sandaime not to let you pass. Shikaku, am I right?"

Tatsuma shrugged, saying that he would not take the blame. For a moment, he felt that Kushina's maliciousness quickly decreased, returning to the previous average level.

Shikaku was the complete opposite. He instantly felt that he was being targeted by the ancient beast, just like when his mother called him by his full name.

"Guru~"

Swallowing his saliva, Shikaku was so frightened that he had no time to harbor any ill will toward Tatsuma, and explained: "That... was the Hokage-sama's arrangement, and there was nothing I could do about it. Besides, this was supposed to be Tatsuma, the one with the highest position in the ANBU. Things that people are responsible for!”

Kushina's malice suddenly fell on Tatsuma, and part of it fell on Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was not at the scene. Seeing Shikaku blaming him, Tatsuma continued:

"Before this incident happened, I went out on a mission. I only found out after I came back. Apparently it was Shikaku's ability that impressed the Sandaime and asked him to entrust him with the important task."

Kushina's eyes returned to Shikaku. Shikaku shuddered, because this time, not only Kushina was staring at him closely, but Tatsuma also had a warning in his red eyes. Shikaku said quickly:
"In the final analysis, it is Hokage-sama's own arrangement. I personally hope that everyone can accept a fair assessment, and so does Tatsuma. Otherwise, I won't give you a second chance, right?"

Kushina turned her head and looked at Tatsuma a few times. Subconsciously and the Kyuubi in her body were saying that Tatsuma still had another purpose. She snorted and said, "I didn't ask for his help!"

Tatsuma nodded and said, "Of course, I'm not that kind, right?"

Hearing this, Kushina nodded instinctively, but felt that she was being taken away by Tatsuma again. An angry look appeared on Kushina's face again, and Tatsuma also picked up the topic and said:
"The reason why I did this is because I don't want your relationship with Minato to have any problems. You see, because of the Third Generation's unreasonable arrangements, you and Minato had hundreds of millions of conflicts, didn't they?
If it weren't for the Sandaime, how could you treat Minato like that yesterday?You can't be the one who deliberately embarrasses your partner in front of outsiders, right? "

what to do?Although I hate this bastard, what he said makes sense!
Kushina struggled for a while, then nodded and said, "It's all old man Sarutobi's fault!"

He hindered her progress and soured her relationship with Minato. This old man Sarutobi was really disgusting!
From then on, Kushina's malice was completely directed towards Sarutobi Hiruzen, who was not present. Tatsuma and Shikaku looked at each other and breathed a sigh of relief.

In the Hokage's office, Hiruzen Sarutobi sneezed, then tightened his collar and murmured: "It seems to be particularly cold this spring."
