In fact, she didn't ask for money from the Daimyo until now.
The hotel owner reminded her. Of course, the hotel owner wouldn't admit it. Because Yumi Hinata always thought she was rich.
Under normal circumstances, it was true.
In addition to the fixed salary based on the level, Konoha's ninja and ninja village's mission share was always fifty-fifty.
If it was a multi-person or large-scale mission,
The distribution plan would be decided based on the contribution of the members.
Yumi Hinata's early ninja career was during wartime.
Whether it was the mission level or the calculation of the reward, it was different from usual.
In the two years after the war, she wasn't active in missions.
Unless she was assigned to a mission, she usually focused on training at home.
Just like that, she saved up more than a million taels of silver just by eating, drinking, and buying things without any other big expenses.
The main source of income was after she became the head of the branch family. Instead of a salary, she received dividends from the Hyuga family's business.
Although the share was small, five years later, her net worth was in the tens of millions.
Of course, Yumi Hinata felt that she didn't take the money for nothing.
She guided the Hyuga family's elites every month, and from time to time, she practiced with the main family.
Although she wasn't active, she never did anything perfunctory. She took the money confidently.
So, since she came out of Konoha, she has been spending money like crazy. She never felt that she was short of money.
As long as she didn't buy a house, she had enough money to spend — as long as she didn't buy a house.
So, when Yumi Hinata asked, "Are there many people who want to learn ninja skills? Do you think if I opened a school to teach this?
Are there many people who are willing to go to school? "
The hotel owner was a little hesitant. He was a businessman.
He knew what it meant to be valuable when something was rare.
He wanted his son to learn ninja skills to protect his family.
Because others didn't have this ability. Even if he hired ninjas, how could they be more reliable than his family?
But he thought about it again. If he was the only hot spring hotel in the Land of Hot Water, would his business be better than now?
No, it wasn't famous for its hot springs. Even if he opened a hot spring hotel, he wouldn't be able to attract so many guests. He could only live with a few kittens in the city all day long.
Similarly, if everyone had a ninja in their family, who would dare to provoke them if they really encountered a bandit?
The hotel owner replied cautiously, "If you want to teach these things, it depends on your …" He wanted to say strength, but when he thought of the giant pangolin that appeared from time to time in the guest's yard and lying on the ground, he changed his words. "It depends on your reputation and how much you charge."
Yumi Hinata laughed. "No matter how famous I am, it's only among ninjas. It doesn't matter to commoners. But I don't intend to take any money. "
The hotel owner was surprised. Wasn't this ninja planning to use this to make money?
Yumi Hinata said, "Merchants can probably afford the tuition fees, but I plan to teach it to everyone, whether they have money or not, farmers or merchants, no matter how old or young they are. As long as they have the heart to learn, anyone can come and learn."
The innkeeper struggled to close his gaping mouth. The ninja's plan sounded like a rebellion. At this moment, he didn't care about his plan and tried to persuade her to give up the idea. "Ninja-sama, what you said, this … is kind, but it can't be realized."
Yumi Hinata also knew that it would be difficult to realize, but she also wanted to hear the inconspicuous hotel owner's opinion.
The innkeeper listed the conditions for her in categories. "First of all, if you set up a school, and there are many students, such as two hundred …"
Yumi Hinata interrupted, "Two hundred is too little."
The innkeeper smiled bitterly. "Yes, then a thousand students, every twenty students will have one teacher —" He paused here. Seeing that Yumi Hinata didn't have any objections to this ratio, he continued. "Then you need fifty ninjas as teachers. It's difficult to find five reliable people in Nōnin, let alone fifty. "
"Second, you need fifty rooms for classrooms. Since you teach ninjutsu, I saw in movies that ninjas fight in water and fire. Presumably, practicing ninjutsu is the same. This requires a large enough space, and there must be fifty pieces. Even if you take turns to use, there must be ten practice fields. Each field is two hundred meters square, which is sixty mu, and ten fields are six hundred mu. The classrooms are calculated according to the price of a homestay outside the city. Every year, each room costs about 20,000 liang. The surrounding area of the city is fertile land, and the rent for each mu is more than 1,300 liang. Not counting the cost of leveling and construction, the rent for these two costs is about two million liang per year. "
"Moreover, the country of hot water has been peaceful for a long time, and there are not many local ninjas. Because the road is peaceful, there are not many tasks that need to be entrusted to ninjas. I don't intend to let the children make a living in the future. It takes five or six years for a ninja to learn, five or six years, right? " When he saw Yumi Hinata nodded, he said, "Let's not talk about businessmen with small family wealth. The children of ordinary farmers have to work in the field since they are seven or eight years old, or they have to be apprentices to craftsmen. In short, they have to make a living. How can we take out five or six years for the children to learn something that they won't be able to use in the future?"
Yumi Hinata's fingers tapped on the counter, and the innkeeper felt that his heart was about to be knocked out. It's also because she has always been kind and generous since she moved in, the innkeeper dared to say so much. Otherwise, he would have shut up immediately.
"Well said." Yumi Hinata said, "It's indeed my lack of consideration. Can you lend me an abacus?"
She calculated it herself. Teaching students is a C-level task. It has no requirements for combat effectiveness. Old ninjas who are close to retirement should like it very much. As for whether the regular ninjas of the Shinobi Village will accept this task entrusted by a rebellious ninja, it's another matter. Considering the long time, two hundred thousand Ryo per year should be a reasonable reward. Of course, this refers to the amount that the ninja receives. If it's entrusted by the ninja village, it will be doubled. Fifty teachers will be ten million Ryo.
After calculating this number, she couldn't help but stop. Compared to this, the two million Ryo rent that shocked her just now was a small amount.
Of course, there is more money. Just now, the innkeeper said that the commoners have no money and no time to learn. She can provide meals and tasks in the name of the school as a work-study program. It doesn't matter if the ninja study is useless. She doesn't intend to make everyone a ninja. She can make this school into a primary school to train students to read, calculate, and so on. It's just that teaching Chakra related knowledge will naturally require more money.
Yumi Hinata thought about it. At the beginning, it will definitely not be a thousand students, but in the future, the scale will definitely be more than a thousand or even ten thousand. If she does this by herself, as the innkeeper said, it's not realistic.
Who should handle this matter? If it's to achieve basic education for all, of course, it should be done by the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water. Of course, he should also pay for it.
Yumi Hinata pushed the abacus back to the innkeeper: "What's your surname?"
The innkeeper said: "My surname is Shimitani, Shimitani Katsu."
Yumi Hinata nodded: "I'll remember you."
She originally meant that the innkeeper was a talent for doing projects. She didn't expect him to tremble with fear. If he said too much, she would be angry and want to retaliate. If it weren't for the fact that all his property is here, the innkeeper would want to run away.
Yumi Hinata went back and told Ah Tai about it. She turned around and went straight to the palace of the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water.
She avoided all the maids, samurai, and ninjas hired to guard the palace with supercilious eyes. She stood quietly in front of the bed of the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water.
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water is a fat guy with big ears and a simple face. The Land of Hot Water is rich, and he also loves new things. In the dormitory, it can be said that all the cutting-edge objects of today's ninja continent have been collected.
Yumi Hinata poked the Daimyo's fat neck and began to walk around the dormitory with interest. She even found a crude prototype of a TV. After she tried to turn on the TV, the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water was finally awakened.
"Who are you?" The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water found that his voice has become very, very small for some reason, and he can't alarm others to save him as he wanted. He suddenly remembered something, and then panicked: "Yumi Hinata?!"
Yumi Hinata froze for a moment, this Daimyo actually knows her? But thinking about it, a wanted S-class rebellious ninja openly walked around in front of his eyes and didn't leave. If the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water didn't receive any news, then the entire intelligence system of the Land of Hot Water would be finished.
"It seems that I don't have to introduce myself." Yumi Hinata dragged a chair over and sat down. "Since you know something about me, then you should also know that whether it's your samurai or the ninja hired by you, they are far weaker than me. I hope you don't do something unnecessary and add trouble to each other."
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water swallowed his saliva and sat up from the bed trembling.
In the Land of Hot Water, there are very few ninjas. Hyuga Yumi is an S-Class Rebellious Ninja. Moreover, she's an S-Class Rebellious Ninja who swaggered all day long without being caught. She's as conspicuous as a big tree in the desert. She's so conspicuous that he can't sit still. He's already written several letters to the Land of Fire to put pressure on Konoha and quickly send someone to catch her.
But although the Land of Hot Water is rich, it is still a small country. Those letters either sank into the sea without any response or were only exchanged with a formulaic laugh.
He also wanted to entrust other big ninja villages to capture her, but no one accepted the task. Of course, they all politely said that this is Konoha's rebellious ninja, so Konoha should be the one to take action. It's very impolite for other ninja villages to take action, which is considered a provocation between ninjas.
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water said, "Do you think I'm stupid? But after a few times, he also understood that this Yumi Hinata is a powerful ninja who can't be provoked. Konoha is a strong ninja, so he doesn't need to ask for trouble.
After a few months, the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water almost forgot about this matter, but he didn't expect Yumi Hinata to suddenly come to his door.
In an instant, rumors about how crazy and cruel these rebellious ninjas are, how they attack cities and destroy countries came to his mind, and the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water trembled.
"Don't be nervous," Yumi Hinata comforted him, "I don't have any special request, I just lack money."
Although it's indeed a bit unscrupulous to directly go to the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water and ask for money, the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water didn't think it was a big deal. It would be better if this ninja, whom the other ninja villages can't afford to offend, was willing to help him because of a lack of money.
"How much do you want?"
Yumi Hinata thought for a while and felt that it should be done step by step, "Let's start with 50 million Ryo per year, and the price will increase later depending on the situation."
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water almost fainted, "50 million Ryo … per year?! I support so many people, and I don't even need 50 million Ryo per year! "
Yumi Hinata frowned, she wanted to give the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water time to mentally prepare himself, but the other party's behavior made her very unhappy.
She pinched the corner of the table, "Sir, you're just saying that perfunctorily. The Land of Hot Water is beautiful, and I don't plan to leave for a while. Even buying a hot spring villa outside the city costs 50 million Ryo, do you really think I'm asking for too much? "
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water showed that he only wanted money, not his life, he straightened his neck and said, "No, no, my money is useful, you're blackmailing! This is extortion! "
Yumi Hinata was amused by him and laughed, "Of course, I'm blackmailing, what do you think I'm doing?" Seeing that the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water was stunned, she added, "You can call my behavior whatever you want, it's up to you."
"It's just that I have to make it clear." Yumi Hinata said slowly, "You don't have to worry about why I'm short of money, anyway, I want this much money now. Of course, I'm not like other rebellious ninjas who don't hesitate to kill a few small countries' Daimyo without blinking. But we ninjas are short of money, and there's no good way to do it, we just take the task. If someone asks me to take your life, then I can only do it, because I'm short of money. If you give me the money, of course, I won't take such a task. But if I don't have the money, then it's hard to say. "
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water thought about it and calmed down strangely. He asked tentatively, "You, do you want to be like Hokage?"
Yumi Hinata was taken aback, "No, I'm just collecting a protection fee." She thought about it and felt that this statement was very appropriate, "Yes, it's a protection fee."
"Isn't the protection fee the same as the annual appropriations given to the Ninja Village by various countries?" The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water suddenly realized, "Then you want to lead the Land of Hot Water like Hokage, oh no, there are no ninjas in the Land of Hot Water anymore, so you need more money."
Yumi Hinata couldn't help but repeat, "The annual appropriations given to the Ninja Village by various countries is the protection fee?"
"Yes," the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water complained, "Otherwise, who would want to pay the hard-earned tax to the Ninja Village? In addition to military appropriations, the Ninja Village has to pay extra money to entrust tasks. If they don't allocate money, the Ninja Village will make trouble for the Daimyo.
Yumi Hinata really didn't realize this problem, but thinking about it carefully, it was indeed the case. Nominally, the nobles rule the countries, but the ninjas have no respect for the nobles, especially the powerful ninjas.
Of course, in reality, the situation in the five major countries was different. She didn't know much about the other countries, but the Daimyo of the Land of Fire had the twelve guardian ninjas that represented the various forces, a huge army, and the Castellan who ruled over the various regions. They had both money and power. She had never heard of any ninja daring enough to assassinate the Daimyo of the Land of Fire.
The relationship between Konoha and the Fire Nation is also a struggle and cooperation. In the sphere of influence of Konoha, whether it is internal affairs or military affairs, it is decided by the Hokage and the Fire Nation. It is completely a country within the country of the Fire Nation, and the Daimyo has no room to express any opinions. And the annual military funding is probably the result of a compromise between the two sides. If Konoha is strong, the Land of Fire will give more money. If Konoha is weak, it will be difficult to deter other countries, and it will be difficult to threaten them internally. Probably the Land of Fire will want to save some money.
But in small countries, it is another situation. For example, the Land of Rain, the Akatsuki's sphere of influence covers almost the entire Land of Rain, and the Daimyo of the Land of Rain, the nominal ruler, almost has no sense of existence. For example, the smaller Land of Crows, Yamato Country, whether it is Sasori of the Red Sand or Yumi Hinata, at their level, killing a few of these Daimyo is just a matter of convenience, and there is no scruple at all.
In this way, her behavior of asking the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water to pay every year is really not much different from the military appropriation of the Ninja Village, and if she has the name of the Ninja Village, her behavior of opening a school in the future will be more justified.
"You're right." Yumi Hinata nodded approvingly to the Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water and nodded approvingly, "I decided to accept your suggestion and become the Village of Hot Water. The Land of Hot Water is famous for hot springs, so let's call it Izukage. What do you think?"
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water felt that he was about to collapse, "Are you serious?! Aren't you a traitor? Konoha doesn't have a problem with coming to my place to be Izukage? "
Yumi Hinata said implicitly, "I don't think Hokage has a problem with it. If he has, I can guarantee that he won't have it in the future."
"Then, what about other countries? I tell you, don't think that we are easy to bully just because there are few ninjas here. In fact, all countries have ninjas in the Land of Hot Water. If you want to rebuild the Village of Hot Water, they won't agree! "
"You misunderstood me again." Yumi Hinata said, "The Village of Hot Water is so remote, I don't intend to rebuild it. I want to be Izukage just to give you a reason to willingly give me money, that's all. "
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water said weakly, "It's not that simple …"
"For me, it's that simple." Yumi Hinata stood up, "It seems that it's difficult for you to make a decision today. Well, it will probably take some time to prepare to take out so much cash."
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water scratched his ear and whispered, "There's no need to prepare …"
Yumi Hinata was amused by him again, but she still said according to the plan, "It seems that I don't know how much money you have. Then you may not know much about what a ninja like me can do. It's no exaggeration to say that if I want to kill anyone in this world, no matter how many people there are, they can't stop me. A thousand people, ten thousand people, an army or a country, it means nothing to me. "
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water looked at her with a suspicious look, "Really?"
Yumi Hinata asked, "Would you like me to kill a Kage for you to see?"
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water was startled, "Don't hurt me!"
"No kidding." "Your army, samurai, and hired ninjas are nothing to me. Even if I defeat them, you won't be able to understand that I'm telling the truth," Hyuga Yumi said, "Your army, samurai, and hired ninjas are nothing to me. Even if I defeat them, you won't understand that I'm serious.
"Well, I'll give you a month to find someone you think is strong enough to kill me. If I die, you'll pay a commission fee and save the protection fee every year. If I don't die, I'll be the new Izumi Kage of the Land of Hot Water in a month. The annual funding will depend on the situation, how about it?"
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water thought for a moment. This time, the other ninja villages won't say that this is Konoha's betrayal. He asked, "This is what you said, don't get angry when the time comes, I'll give …"
"No, I won't." Yumi Hinata said, "I can also understand that it's really difficult for people who don't understand the situation to accept me asking you for money. If I don't let you try, I'm afraid you'll never be reconciled. Instead of secretly making things difficult for me in the future, it's better to let you give up this time, don't you think? "
The Daimyo of the Land of Hot Water could only laugh dryly.
Yumi Hinata was about to leave when she suddenly remembered, "By the way, you can only attack me. You're forbidden to attack my children. I don't care if they live or die, but this kind of behavior is too provocative. If I get angry, I may not be able to help killing your whole family."
