Settling Down
Although Li Guang looked down on him, he didn't show it on his face.
Nodding his head, Li Guangcai continued to flip through a few pages and said,""In that case, I want this. I'll pay directly.”
"Aren't you going to take a look?" The other party said in surprise.
Li Guang shook his head." It's fine. The house is just like that. It's fine as long as it's roughly the same. I'll send out a mission later to get someone to help me clean it. I'll go and buy some furniture and ask them to help me move it.”
Mu Ye was right here, so he couldn't run away. Besides, the house was just that. As long as it didn't collapse, people could live in it. Compared to the other party's greed, Li Guang still believed in Mu Ye's reputation. This kind of dilapidated mansion could still be sold!？Moreover, the money spent was not much. It was only 200,000 taels, which was not worth mentioning compared to the tens of millions of taels, so Li Guang agreed readily.
As for the receptionist, Li Guang couldn't punish him. After all, humans would die for wealth and birds would die for food. Moreover, Li Guang didn't need to do anything at all. It was still a problem if he could survive when Nine-tails attacked the village next year.
"No problem, no problem. I'll help you settle these. Why don't you go through the formalities first?”Big deal! Once this was done, he could also retain a portion of the funds.
After all, he was the local boss and had connections. It was very convenient for him to deal with these things.
"Sure. By the way, this is the money I owe you.”As he spoke, Li Guang handed over 20 taels to the other party, who accepted it with a smile.
After that, Li Guang took out his card and began to hand over the house to the other party. He also paid the commission at the same time. Li Guang took the address of the house and prepared to take a look.
"Wait!" The other party suddenly stopped Li Guang. Li Guang was a little curious when he was suddenly stopped. He turned around and asked,"Yeah, what's wrong?"
"Well, you've already bought a house. Do you need a car?”
"You sell carriages here?" Li Guang asked in surprise. The staff here in Muye had started their own business! There were no cars in Muye's place. The only means of transportation were horses and carriages.
Hehe, he was addicted to earning extra money!
Hearing Li Guang's words, the multi-party felt a little embarrassed." Well, it's not me. I can recommend a place to sell horses.”
Li Guang thought for a moment and waved his hand, indicating that there was no need. He was not used to riding horses. He heard that they were quite tiring. He did not expect to buy a house and a car as soon as he came to the other world. Why did it feel like he had not transmigrated? It was such a strange feeling, especially when this big brother was promoting the carriage. I felt like I had transmigrated.
"Forget it. I don't know how to ride that thing, so I don't want it.”Li Guang refused and turned to leave.
What's so good about riding a horse? When I become a ninja, I'll still need to ride a horse. Besides, I'm not used to riding a horse. I might as well fiddle with a bicycle. Enduring the fact that the world's transportation was so underdeveloped, could he invent bicycles to make money here?
! Good idea! And tea leaves! The pawnshop owner treated the black tea as a treasure. Li Guang drank it very ordinarily. He might as well find a breeding spot for his own tea. Thinking of this, Li Guang smiled and walked around the hall diagonally. Then, he walked back to the counter. The way he walked in circles was indescribably funny.
Li Guang leaned against the counter and smiled at the staff.
The man was frightened by Li Guang's sudden return and strange stare. He asked uncomfortably,"What's wrong with you?"
"I suddenly remembered something!" Li Guang said with a smile.”
"What is it?" The other party followed up and asked," Do you still have any vacant shops in the commercial district? How do you rent them? No, is it for sale?" If he wanted to settle down in Muye, he might as well buy it directly.
Hmm, wait, there seems to be a problem! Nine-Tailed Attack! F * ck! He couldn't buy it, at least not this year!
When the other party heard Li Guang's words, a smile immediately appeared on his face."Oh, there is, there is! Wait, I'll get you a detailed blueprint.”
"Wait, slow down." Li Guang hurriedly pulled him back.
"Listen to me, I'm a businessman, and I do have the idea of opening a shop in Muye in the future. But right now, I just want you to help me take a look at that place. Help me keep an eye out for the shops near the commercial street.”
"Commercial street? You mean the commercial district, right?" The other party asked curiously. At the same time, he took out a map and pointed it at Li Guang.
"Yes, this is the business district, on this main road.”Li Guang pointed out the area that he valued from the map. It had to be said that Li Guang's judgment was good. The area he chose was a good place, but the people of the other world were not stupid. They would naturally do business in such a densely populated area.
The location he chose was the main road that he had come from. It was the main road that ran through the north and south of the commercial district.
As mentioned before, the north of Muye was the commercial district, and the west was the civilian district. The main gate of Muye was located in the west, which was also the main farming area of the wood industry. Of course, there were many civilians here. The east was the core of Muye, and the offices were located in the territories of the major families. Some of Muye's forbidden areas were located in the back mountains. The layout seemed simple but there were strict divisions. The main road that Li Guang chose to run through the north and south was the main traffic route from the civilian district to the commercial district. Such a good spot had naturally been occupied by someone long ago.
When the other party saw Li Guang's location, he was immediately put in a difficult position." Aiya, this isn't easy to handle. The shops in this block have long been full. Where can we get extra!?" Look at the map, it's not even marked!”
Li Guang was naturally dissatisfied when he heard the other party's words. He thought to himself, Of course I know there isn't! This is a good place to do business, but what do you do? My money is not wasted!
Thus, Li Guang said calmly,""Don't we still have you?"
The other party smiled bitterly when he heard this. He knew what Li Guang meant. Li Guang really thought highly of him.
'So she's waiting for me here ~ I thought it would be over after getting a certificate.' He knew that the money was not easy to get!
However, he still shook his head.
"There are really no more shops on this street. Even if there are, they are not something you can touch. Some of them are in the hands of those big families.”
The other party's attitude was so unyielding that Li Guang fell silent.
In the end, Li Guang nodded. There was no need to say more. The business on this street seemed to be controlled by the big families of Muye. This seemed to be the unspoken rule of this world. Li Guang unceremoniously chose a place in the civilian area and the commercial area. Then, he chose a place where the two intersected. Muye's north-south road was not the same. Since he could not encounter it here and it had been reserved, he chose the west side. There was a place where Muye was sold. Since Muye had received foreign merchants, he naturally had reserved space. He would not really let the merchants not be able to do business. Muye could eat his own meat and others could drink his soup.
Li Guang actually knew that it was not easy to get a shop on the main street. He was just trying it out. Some things would be missed if you didn't try them. If you were lucky enough to grab this opportunity, you would sigh at your behavior at that time.
Li Guang was also preparing for two scenarios. In fact, he did not have much hope at the beginning, or rather, it was simply a feint. Even if the foreign land was not worth much, there was no problem with their judgment. The purpose of doing business was to make money. This place was densely populated and was very suitable for opening a shop. Li Guang did not believe that no discerning person would not notice this business opportunity!？Therefore, Li Guang's current goal was only to create a smokescreen and gain bargaining chips for future negotiations.
Li Guang did not make a rash decision this time. He had noticed that the countries in this world had just been formed, and the large-scale wars had just ended. Now that the third War of the Ninja Realm had started, the civilians would naturally participate. Most countries were at war with each other, and everyone could become kings. Even the political system of the Country of Fire was not perfect, and the management was chaotic. Merchants and heroes were everywhere, and it was common for people to sell their children. In short, this world was still in the Dark Age.
As the strongest military force in the world, Muye needed the most perfect place to be so harmonious. Peace here was not easy to come by.
Of course, all of this had little to do with Li Guang now. He had to carefully look at the map to choose a few places. After all, there were many opportunities to set up shop in such places. There was no need to hang on to a tree. Of course, this area might not be the most prosperous area, but Li Guang saw that the planning was not bad. There were many shops in these areas that were rented. What was even rarer was that the few shops that Li Guang chose were all rented, especially the one at the intersection. It was actually in the state of selling. He wanted to take a look.
The housing prices here are so low! He wanted to open a shop and do business, but not now. He had just arrived at this place and needed to rest. In addition, he had to cultivate the method of refining chakras that he had obtained from ninjas!
"I'll take these three, but I need some time to take a look. Can you book them for me first? I'll go through the formalities if I like them.”
That's right, Li Guang didn't plan to pay for the time being. Instead, he wanted to use his connections to occupy the shop first. One had to know that these shops cost a sum of money every month. Who asked this person to take his money just now!
The other party knew Li Guang's intention and warned,""Don't make me wait too long." "Don't worry, it'll be three months at most. If I don't make a move in three months, you can just rent it again.”
The other party was expressionless, and no one knew what he was thinking. In fact, he had been calculating in his heart. The rent for these three shops for three months was more than 20 taels, but that also depended on the time. It was now a war era, and doing business was dangerous. Nowadays, few businessmen dared to take the risk to open a shop in Muye, so there were some vacant positions in Muye. The main reason was that war brought danger and opportunity. At this time, there were many profiteers who made a fortune from war. It was normal to encounter danger. Some countries even specially organized people to destroy the commercial activities of the enemy countries. This kind of internal friction would empty some of the benefits, so Mu Ye needed new blood.
Leaving
Muye's burden was heavy. Since he occupied the most fertile land in the Ninja Realm, he had to face the hardships of other countries, so he had to consume a lot of money. Apart from the elderly and children, the residents of the wood industry had to pay taxes. Business taxes and all kinds of taxes were very high, so it was not easy for ordinary people to live in Muye. Only ninjas and merchants could come here, but it was wartime now. It was not a problem for him to keep these shops for a few months.
Muye had its own way of dealing with people like Li Guang. There were many welfare policies. In this world, people were more precious than any resource. This was also why Li Guang could settle down in Muye smoothly. It was not difficult to settle down in the Naruto World, but it was a little difficult to settle down here for a long time. There were some things involved.
Muye was the military force of a large country. Naturally, it would not house a group of useless people. The taxes paid by the civilians here were very high. Money could make the world go around. Muye only wanted benefits. Therefore, Li Guang's behavior today was not out of line. After all, it was normal for one or two rich people to appear among the refugees. This also meant that many of the civilians here were top talents in various industries. They had different horizons and had seen many things.
It was very likely that the staff member was just following the rules, but Li Guang didn't know at all. However, he also received some benefits, which was not a loss in his eyes.
After he was done with the accommodation and shop, Li Guang walked to the mission hall.
Whether it was the villagers or foreign merchants and tourists, they had to come here to issue missions and go through various procedures. There would definitely be enough people to receive you because they were all gods of fortune. The life of a high-consumption occupation like ninja was not easy.
At the same time, don't forget that this was Naruto's building, and there were Shadow Grade powerhouses guarding it. Coming here to issue missions was not only safe, but also a sign of respect for Naruto. Subconsciously, it formed a sense of cohesion and highlighted Naruto's status.
After Li Guang arrived, he found someone to go through the procedures to join Muye. He only needed to issue a cleaning mission, which didn't cost much. He didn't want to stay any longer. There were many things that could only be understood after experiencing it. When Li Guang arrived, he realized that Muye wasn't as beautiful as in the anime.
After Li Guang came here, he found that this world was really strange. There was electricity, modern equipment such as televisions and fridges, but there were no firearms. Most of these high-end equipment were in the hands of the rich and powerful forces. Ordinary people did not have them at all. It was really confusing. The power of technology lay in the scale of Mandarin, which liberated the productivity of ordinary people. The culture of this world was very strange, not at all inferior to before Li Guang transmigrated. Even Naruto's office building was like a bank window. It was very formal and everyone handled their business in an orderly manner. However, most of the shops looked ancient. Why was there such a difference?
It was very simple. It was a hierarchy! In this world, Li Guang saw a lot of class oppression. The upper class did not exploit the lower class. The spread of technology made some people see a crisis. Back then, the samurai were replaced by ninjas, which was why they had to curb it.
In addition, Muye's security was not as lax as it seemed on the surface. Otherwise, why would the four kingdoms be afraid of Muye's roots? From the caravan to Muye's interior, they had to go through several checks. After registration, they had to report to Naruto's building. It could be seen that Muye had planned the route along the way. There must be special surveillance sentries along the way! Moreover, Muye distributed forehead protectors to the ninjas in his village. The forehead protectors were also famous. The left and right sides were like GPS. The forehead protectors were all numbered. There was a barrier in Muye Village. As long as they passed through the barrier monitoring team, they would immediately know who was going out.
The third generation Naruto really didn't know about the secret of the group? There was a dark political struggle mixed in, so I won't talk about it here.
Mu Ye had also recruited some wandering ninjas. Naruto had done it before, and Root had done it in the dark. As long as they were not spies, there would be no problems with them joining the village. It was not strange. This was how the ninja world worked. It was normal for an organization like Root to recruit some rebels. However, an organization like Root was dark and ruthless. They would be controlled by others if they came here. If they were not forced into a corner, they would not do this.
(Don't tell me everyone thinks that the people of the roots are actually finding orphans from the outside to train? Don't you see that the group has attacked the children of the major families of Muye as if it was a common occurrence? You can imagine the actions of this organization's iron-blooded and peaceful days.）
As mentioned before, ninjas were a group of people with high consumption. They needed to cultivate in order to pursue power, and cultivation required resources. As humanoid weapons that controlled power, ninjas needed benefits if they wanted enough resources! They also needed to live, and they also needed to be supplied by the ordinary people.
It was a time of war now, so life was better. Ninjas served war. In times of peace, ninjas were not needed by the Daimyo. The funding for the Ninja Village would naturally be greatly reduced, and the number of missions would also plummet. Many small Ninja Villages could not make ends meet, so the lives of the ninjas would naturally be tight. Don't forget that ninjas were high-spending people. All kinds of equipment and cultivation required money. In times of peace, only the villages of the five major countries had some high-level missions. Most of them were service missions issued by the village for low-level ninjas to practice. Their nature was similar to hiring people, and the jobs were all miscellaneous jobs.
Li Guang's mission was to clean up the place. All he needed to do was to send a Genin. The village was short of manpower, which meant that the people and the higher-ups were fighting. If a Genin came out of the village, they would be cannon fodder in this world. It didn't matter whether they had it or not. Therefore, Li Guang's mission didn't require anyone. He just needed to find a place to fill out a form and pay the deposit.
After the discussion, Li Guang left the place happily. When he walked out of the gate, Li Guang looked at the spacious square and couldn't help but scratch his head.
"Looks like I really need a means of transportation.”
"Horses definitely won't do. I don't know how to ride them myself. I heard that riding a horse will tire your legs. I can invent a bicycle myself and sell it in the future! Haha, I'm really smart. A bicycle is also a magic weapon in the jungle! What kind of horse is this? Haha! I'm a genius, this is the rhythm of getting rich! Especially now that we don't lack start-up funds!”
He bought a big house for only 200,000 yuan. It was really too cheap. Li Guang sighed that only the modern world had high housing prices.
However, this was only Li Guang's own feeling. In fact, Li Guang had spent a lot of money! After all, the place Li Guang chose was a commoner's district, and the property prices were not that high.
However, the house that Li Guang bought had a courtyard and a field. It was already considered a luxury house. The house was not big because it was not easy to clean it alone.
The regime did not have a clear management system for the soil. The management was very loose, which led to this situation. In other words, the higher-ups of Muye had a very shallow understanding of the concept of land.
Muye was equivalent to Shanghai in the Great Heaven Dynasty. The housing prices there were extremely expensive, and it was the same here. However, it was indeed strange that the housing prices were not expensive. Perhaps it was because of the special customs of this world. After all, the five ninja villages had just been established not long ago, only 47 years ago. Moreover, because of the different customs, the emphasis was different.
He paid for a carriage and went to the bank.
This time, it wasn't as troublesome as the last time. The bank staff didn't even need three minutes to finish it.
This made Li Guang sigh.
After leaving the bank, Li Guang took a bus to the Ninja Hospital.
Actually, Li Guang was just trying to comfort himself. He felt that it was safe to put money in the bank. In fact, money in this world was not safe anywhere. Only when he was strong could he protect himself.
Muye's money was more stable than Li Guang had imagined. However, this was only for ordinary people. For a high-risk occupation like ninja, the corresponding consumption was also high. Li Guang's tens of millions were nothing. Living was nothing. Houses were not worth much in Muye. As long as it was a ninja village, they would be given a place to live. To a ninja, the key was food, ninja props, medicine, all kinds of consumables, ninja tools, and ninja techniques. The more ninjas earned, the more they spent.
Ordinary people didn't need to spend much money on food and accommodation, but ninjas were a high-consumption class. All the weapons they used were accumulated with wealth! The price of divine weapons was naturally not something that ordinary iron could compare to. This principle that ordinary people knew was naturally the same in the ninja circle.
A D-rank Ninja mission was worth 5000 taels. It was enough for an ordinary person to eat and drink extravagantly for decades, but it was nothing in Muye! Muye was the military center of the Fire Country! An ordinary person could earn more than 100 taels a month, while an ordinary person in other regions could only earn a few dozen taels a month. If that was the case, everyone should have a rough idea of the currency in the ninja world. It could be seen that ninjas were a high-income group, which was worthy of their skills. An ordinary Genin would be a martial arts master in the modern world, not to mention existences like the Middle Ninja and Upper Ninja. Those who could become ninjas were originally favored by the heavens.
In the Ninja Village, most of the Class D and E characters had to do odd jobs. The missions were relatively heavy, but not dangerous. Most of them were jobs that were difficult for ordinary people to complete. These were all for Genin to familiarize himself with the ninja process and to accumulate some reputation for the village. The village also wanted to win over the hearts of the people.
Class E meant working for ordinary people. The salary was not very high. For example, pulling weeds and tending to the vegetable garden were common in anime. Li Guang's room was also considered a Class E. It was nothing more than carrying things and cleaning. It was nothing to a ninja who often trained. Class D missions were generally more demanding tasks that ordinary people could not do. For example, cleaning up the garbage in the river, which was more demanding and difficult for ordinary people to complete, was classified as Class D.
Class C missions were considered escorting missions or other missions out of the village. They might encounter danger, bandits, or other ninjas, but they were usually Genin. Of course, there might be Chuunin.
Usually, a chuunin would only complete B-rank and C-rank missions. This was because a chuunin's mission would be B-rank, which was considered a combat mission. It was relatively dangerous, so a chuunin could usually save up 100,000 yuan in a month.
The position of the chuunin was rather awkward. They were the main force of the village, but they were not very strong. Moreover, everyone's combat strength was different. Generally, when the chuunin reached adulthood, they would become a chuunin. When they carried out missions, they would set off in groups, so many of them were not very strong. In addition, it was not easy for the chuunin to earn money. The large-scale escort missions issued by merchants all used the chuunin, but they would not hire only one person, so everyone would not get much when the money was divided.
100,000 Ninjas could only change their equipment a few times, mainly for medicine and hidden weapons like darts and shurikens.
A-rank missions would be attended by Jounin. Usually, only the more dangerous missions would be listed as A-rank! The Genin could only come into contact with Class B's at most. This was because the average Chuonin was the main force of each village. The Jounin were not cabbages. They were considered high-end combatants and would not easily fight.
An A-rank mission was not something that ordinary people could imagine. It was usually a battle between high-end ninjas. Battles between middle-class ninjas and high-class ninjas happened from time to time.
