Naruto, starting with immortality, I'm going to buy up the ninja world!

Chapter 168 Small Nation Alliance. Read my eye, what eye? Sharingan!

Listening to their requests, Tetsuya smiled, took a sip of tea, and put down his teacup.

"Oh, so you two have seen the changes in the Land of Rain, which is why you've come to seek cooperation."

"Yes."

That's right.

"Heh~!"

Tetsuya's smile became even brighter.

"Then you two, do you know what kind of contract I signed with Hanzo, the leader of the Salamander of the Land of Rain?"

"I really don't know that."

"So, what kind of contract did you sign?"

"Well then, there's a lot of stuff in the contract, and I can't explain it all to you. But I have the contract document here, and I'll have someone bring it over for you to take a look at."

"So good."

"Then let's see."

"Shinta, go and get my contract with the Land of Rain."

"Yes, sir."

The voice of the salamander god came from outside the garden, and soon the salamander god came running in with a document in his hand.

"Lord Daimyo."

Shinta approached Tetsuya and respectfully handed him the documents, but Tetsuya did not accept them.

"Show it to the two gentlemen."

"Ok."

Shinta then presented the documents to the two daimyo.

"Please take a look at these two esteemed names."

The daimyo of the land of rivers took the document. There were two copies of the document. He handed one copy to the daimyo of the land of birds, and the two of them began to read it.

After briefly glancing at the contract, the two of them widened their eyes in astonishment.

"What?! How did he agree to all these conditions?!"

"This is practically selling the Land of Rain to you!"

The two couldn't believe that what was written on it was true, but it also had Hanzo of the Salamander's signature and the seal of the Land of Rain on it.

This proves that everything above is true, and that Hanzo the Salamander really did agree to the conditions listed above, essentially selling the Land of Rain to Tetsuya Chiba.

"You can't say that. How can you ask him to sell the Land of Rain to me? The Land of Rain belongs to the people of the Land of Rain. I'm just getting a share of the profits from it."

After all, if he can't offer me enough benefits, why should I bother to help them rebuild the Rain Kingdom and develop it again?

To put it bluntly, you two esteemed figures, would you do work without pay?

"That's true..."

"However, the situation in our two countries is different from that of the Land of Rain, so we shouldn't have to pay such a high price."

"Yes, we just want to discuss some trade cooperation with you, Daimyo Chiba."

"Yes, if it's just trade cooperation, then it's indeed unnecessary to pay so much."

Tetsuya's eyes lit up, and a brilliant idea popped into his head.

"My esteemed guests, I have a brilliant idea. I wonder if you two would like to hear it?"

"A good idea?"

"Mr. Chiba, please feel free to speak your mind."

Tetsuya said with a smile.

"What you all want is to get commercial assistance from our Grass Country, right? I've been thinking, since we are all countries living between powerful nations, our individual economies are not much, but what if we form an economic alliance?"

"alliance?"

The daimyo of the land of rivers frowned.

"I doubt that major powers would allow alliances."

"That's right. Once small countries form an alliance, those big countries will definitely not sit idly by. If the big countries then attack us, we won't be able to withstand it."

Seeing the fearful expressions on their faces, Tetsuya waved his hands repeatedly and said...

"Oh dear! You two have misunderstood. I wasn't talking about a political alliance, just an economic alliance, a business alliance."

Tetsuya explained to the two of them.

"As long as you join our alliance, we can all make money together, give each other preferential treatment in business, and give priority to each other in supplying any needs. However, all of this is limited to business."

As for the rest, let them each find their own peace.

The two exchanged a glance and thought it seemed feasible, but they still needed to discuss the details of this business alliance.

Seeing that the two were interested, Tetsuya immediately started making grand promises to them.

Hehe, come on, come on, join this 'business' alliance. Once you join, whether it's business or politics won't be up to you.

Ultimately, the two daimyo, persuaded by Tetsuya, both joined the business alliance.

Meanwhile, the daimyo of the Land of Rivers and the Land of Birds took the initiative to invite the Land of Bears to join their alliance.

After all, if there are only four countries, it would be awkward if there were a tie when voting within the alliance.

Tetsuya's attitude towards this was indifferent; as long as they could persuade the Daimyo of the Land of Bears, he didn't care about anything else.

As for the possibility of disagreements during the voting?

Haha, so they really look down on the Sharingan. With the Sharingan, how could there be any disagreement during the vote?

Isn't this an insult to the Sharingan's abilities?

If any issues arise that require a vote, then it depends on my whims and the situation.

After seeing off the two daimyo, Tetsuya immediately notified the Chiba Trading Company to head to the Land of Birds and the Land of Rivers to begin some preliminary preparations.

As for developing relations between the two countries, it is a long process that cannot be rushed.

After all, the development of the Land of Grass and the Land of Rain was achieved by Tetsuya with real money; he invested real money and hasn't seen any returns yet.

These two countries are the benchmarks he promotes. If he didn't promote these two benchmarks, how would anyone come to him to discuss cooperation?

After the two daimyo left, Tetsuya looked at the draft of the alliance plan in his hand, and with a sudden thought, he walked straight towards the finance office of the Land of Grass.

Inside the finance office, Kakuzu is processing some financial applications.

"What? Building a farm costs this much? No way, absolutely not. Cut it in half, cut it in half."

"A reservoir? Don't we already have a reservoir? Why do we need another one? No approval, no approval."

"And this one too, cut this one in half, and this one won't pass either..."

Hearing the angry roar coming from the finance office, Zhe couldn't help but shake his head. The black-faced miser's true nature was exposed. It's true that he likes money, but if you want to get any money out of him, that's extremely difficult.

"Kakuzu, sometimes it's best not to be too tight-fisted with money. There's no problem in getting reasonable requests approved."

"Boss, what brings you here?"

Upon hearing this sound, Kakuzu immediately stood up.

He genuinely respected Tetsuya.

"I've come to see you. Sit down, don't be too nervous."

Kakuzu then sat down and began to explain.

"It's not that I'm too tight-fisted with money, it's just that their demands are unreasonable."
