Not yet. Tobirama Sentete asked Yumi Hinata to stay and wait for him to come back.
One word: Money.
Two words: Borrow money.
A little more detail.
That is: Borrow a lot of money.
But the central idea is: This money will not be returned.
What is the money used for? To cultivate the Edo Tensei as a living sacrifice.
Tobirama Sentete did not have a bottom line when developing Ninjutsu, and it was precisely because of this.
Hashirama, who had always been generous, was furious.
Regardless of whether he had perfected the Edo Tensei.
He also insisted on destroying all the information.
But in the case of a choice.
Tobirama Sentete certainly felt that the problem could be solved with money.
It was better not to use human lives, although human lives could be used on the enemy.
But even in terms of efficiency, it was more efficient to use money.
Yes, Tobirama Sentete brought the technology and enough raw materials to cultivate Hashirama's cells as a living sacrifice.
But this cultivation process was not something that could be done overnight.
It contained a variety of high-tech ingredients, instruments, venues, energy sources, and so on that had to be built with a variety of precious and rare metals.
Some were even worth ten times their weight in gold.
Otherwise, why would Orochimaru, who was intoxicated with the Art of Immortality, take on missions whenever he was free, and even after defecting for many years, he was still ranked in the top three S-level missions completed in Konoha. Because of lack of money.
Why not pursue immortality instead of spending so much effort to compete for the position of Hokage? In addition to proving himself in front of the Sandaime,
Because only by becoming Hokage could he maximize the resources of all Konoha for his research.
Whether it was Ninjutsu or biochemical technology, money alone was not enough, but if he didn't even have money, then he wouldn't be able to research anything.
Tobirama Sentete had mature technology in hand, but to set up this stall.
The lack of money was not small.
He never fought an unprepared war. Of course, he came to this world with a small and valuable treasure, Hashirama's Chakra crystal.
The crystal that could condense Chakra into a stable entity.
Furthermore, it had been stable for decades.
This was the power of the legendary Six Dao Immortal.
Even a fingernail-sized piece of this thing was priceless.
However, this was also a treasure of [Konoha], so it was best to keep it if possible. Secondly, if this item was sold on the market, only the other four countries would be able to afford it, and it would also attract the attention of Konoha.
Tobirama Sentete did not want to use this plan unless it was absolutely necessary.
At this time, Yumi Hinata, who was the Village Shadow, was naturally his best choice.
But as long as Yumi Hinata could afford it, she would not lose out.
First of all, Tobirama Sentete had told her that the reason he had started to cultivate the sacrifice so early was because of her. Although it was Hyuga Yuichi who had forced her to learn the Mystical Arts to increase her strength, at the end of the day, the power was something that truly belonged to her. It was something that no one else could take away.
Moreover, the appearance of Hyuga Yuichi was inextricably linked to Yumi Hinata.
Moreover, the God of Ninja, the First Hokage, Hashirama's one-on-one teaching of Mystical Arts, wasn't that valuable? If they were to sell it for money, the demand would exceed 500,000 taels per hour.
"So, according to the market price of 5 million taels per day and 50 million taels per ten days," Tobirama Sentete guided her patiently, showing her the experimental equipment and the list of raw materials, "I want to buy all of these for less than 100 million taels, and I can promise that Big Brother will teach you until you completely master it. This money can be considered as the price of a package, it's still very cost-effective."
Yumi Hinata was stunned. She finally understood what it meant to force a hero to his death with a penny, no, 100 million taels. Even Tobirama Sentete was so eloquent. And no wonder he was so considerate and happy at the beginning. As soon as he heard that she didn't want to go to Mount Myoboku to learn Mystical Arts, he immediately offered his Big Brother to be a tutor. It turned out that he was waiting for her here.
Yumi Hinata said sincerely, "You're right, and it's very reasonable. The only problem is that I don't have 100 million taels of silver in total … No, I don't even have 50 million taels of silver. "
Tobirama Sentete said, "Didn't you say that the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water once paid you 10 million taels of silver to investigate the den of counterfeiting coins?" At this price, she could casually take a few tasks.
Yumi Hinata was a little speechless. Wasn't that what they mentioned when they first came to this world? They had planned it so long ago.
"That kind of commission can only be encountered by chance. Since I came to the Land of Hot Water, I only took three tasks from the Daimyo, and that was the one with the highest reward. "
The commission that she can take is not only high enough to make her excited, but also doesn't require her to do something she doesn't want to do, such as assassination and so on.
Because she didn't agree with the ninja's way of life, she didn't want to be a knife in other people's hands, and she didn't want to kill people for money or anything else, so she quit the first-line ninja sequence at the age of 15. After so many years, she has been able to control her own life. How can she return to the old way of life?
Tobirama Sentete frowned and didn't say anything. This was beyond his expectations. It's not that he doesn't have other ways to raise money, but whether it's secret or fast, cooperating with Yumi Hinata is the best choice.
Yumi Hinata thought for a while, "That's the case. The funds that the Daimyo allocated to the Tangyin Village were all spent on the Tangyin Village. This year, we bought the villa. There should be no money in the account, and we also borrowed money from the Daimyo. The next few years' funds will only be allocated after the repayment amount. However, the daily operation of the school and my laboratory alone can't be used up. "
"In two months, the next year's Tangyin Village will be issued again." Yumi Hinata said, "I will personally sponsor 30 million silver, which is my tuition fee. It should be enough for the initial period. You can plan the equipment you want first, and wait for the funds to come in before proceeding to the next step."
Tobirama Sentete was about to agree, but Yumi Hinata waved her hand and said, "But my private savings have always been separated from the Tangyin Village account. I haven't spent money in the funds for personal matters."
Tobirama Sentete raised his eyebrows slightly, "What do you mean?"
"After this is over, can you leave the technology involved and the laboratory you built?"
The live sacrifice cultured by Hashirama's cells is extremely exclusive. Even if it's used for limb transplantation, the average person can't use it, but the full set of equipment and technology for the culture is worth a lot of money.
[Konoha] took decades to develop and perfect the technology. The money and resources consumed in the process are more than a hundred times more than what it takes to set up a stall, not to mention the manpower involved.
Even if Yumi Hinata doesn't need these in the Land of Hot Water, she can easily find a seller to sell it for several times more.
Of course, this is just an example. She can't sell such dangerous technology casually. Suddenly, she didn't think about what she can do with it, but in short, the opportunity can't be missed. It's not a loss to get it in her hands. Maybe one day it will be useful.
Unfortunately, Tobirama Sentete felt that this technology was too dangerous, just like her, "No." He was particularly resolute.
Yumi Hinata looked at him with her chin in her hand, "Then there's no money."
Tobirama Sentete's index finger slowly tapped twice on the armrest of the chair, raised his eyes and asked her, "Do you want to learn Edo Tensei? You should be able to learn it. "
"No." Yumi Hinata said without hesitation, "If it's a battle that I can't deal with by myself, then who can help me if I reincarnate? First Hokage? Forget it. You don't want to leave the technology of cultivating living sacrifices. Even if you reincarnate, you won't have enough strength. "
"Although this is the original intention of developing this ninjutsu, it has more than this function." Tobirama Sentete said, "Don't you have someone you want to see again?"
Yumi Hinata was startled for a moment, then smiled and said, "What's the use of seeing them when they're dead? To catch up?"
Tobirama Sentete nodded, but didn't speak, just looked at her.
"This doesn't make any sense …" Yumi Hinata said, her voice gradually lowered, and even her eyes looked down at her fingers. After a moment, she suddenly said, "Deal."
After she said that, she realized what she had agreed to. Thinking about it calmly, it really didn't make any sense as she said before.
Yes, yes, who doesn't have a few eternal regrets in life, but is it necessary to kill someone because of this regret, just to call the dead back to chat with them? That's just too crazy. "
"What's the use of this …" Yumi Hinata smiled bitterly.
"It's precisely because I know you won't abuse it that I'm taking this out as an exchange." Tobirama Sentete said and handed her a scroll, "This is the list of materials needed. Take a look and see if you know where to buy it. If you don't know, I'll go and collect information to see if it's the same as our suppliers."
Yumi Hinata took a look at it. Most of the raw materials for the cultivation liquid were outside her knowledge, but some precious metals and instruments were also needed in her laboratory.
"These metals are only produced in the Land of Wind, and I heard that they need to be refined by the Fourth Kazekage himself. The production is very small, and most of them are supplied to Konoha. Instead of buying them, it's better to just steal them from Konoha and save some money." The Second Hokage must have left Thor's mark all over Konoha. Even after a few decades, there should still be a lot left. Tobirama Sentete went in and out of Konoha and robbed his elder brother's tomb by relying on this mark, so stealing things should be just as easy.
Tobirama Sentete said helplessly, "Try not to do this."
Yumi Hinata shrugged, "Then we can only smuggle it. This kind of thing is a strategic material, and it's certainly not sold to the Land of Hot Water." She sighed, she bought it through a smuggler. "The price of smuggling is at least double."
Tobirama Sentete was very calm, "Well, I calculated the total price and left a surplus in this regard."
Well, it didn't hurt at all if he didn't have to pay for it.
But then again, this was just a casual negotiation. After all, the living sacrifice must be cultivated, and the world must be saved. No matter who pays, the money will always have to be paid.
Both of them had their own concerns.
In order to protect the secret of the Byakugan and the existence of Hyuga Yuichi, Tobirama Sentete's identity and the identity of [Uchiha Zetsu] must not be revealed to the five major countries. Otherwise, it would be very easy to be exposed.
However, Yumi Hinata's needs in this regard were more important than Tobirama Sentete's. In the end, this was to protect her world and the Yasuji clan here. If she forced Tobirama Sentete into a corner, he could of course make the decision that she and Hatake Kakashi had in the past: he would rather take advantage of other worlds than his own world.
On the other hand, Tobirama Sentete also needed Yumi Hinata's help. She was a great help in dealing with Hyuga Yuichi, and also a bait to lure him. If Yumi Hinata didn't give up and told him the method to seal the Caged Bird, then his world would really be finished.
Yumi Hinata and he tangled with each other and reached an agreement. They listed out the things that they needed in the early stage and where they could buy them with money, roughly calculated the price, and went back to look for the passbook.
There was no concept of financial management in this world. Yumi Hinata was too lazy to buy assets, and all her money was stored in the bank. She had always taken out as much as she wanted, and was very unplanned. In any case, if it was a normal expenditure, her money would be enough for her to spend for one or two hundred years.
But now, both sides realized that it wasn't enough for the early stage investment. She had no choice but to take the passbook and look for Shimotani Sheng, "How much money does the village account have now? Withdraw five million taels first, and set aside half of the next year's funds for me. I have other uses for it. Put it in the account first, and I'll return it to the village account later. "
Shimotani Sheng gave her a rough account and asked, "This year, the school's expenses have increased due to the expansion of enrollment. Do we need to apply for an increase in funding?"
