Land of Iron, "Forging Blades Workshop" Merchant Guild.
When Shin'yu handed the "Hundred Hands Style Swordsmithing Rare Book" to Niwa Maya, the gray-haired chairman couldn't help but burst into tears. The look in his eyes towards Shin'yu was full of gratitude, and even deep awe.
"Helmsman, this is…"
"I once had an agreement with someone that we wouldn't interfere with the operation of the Merchant Guild. Since that person is dead, the agreement naturally no longer exists." Shin'yu said, "So, what originally belonged to my 'Forging Blades Workshop' should have been taken back long ago."
Niwa Maya raised his sleeve to wipe away his tears and sighed, "Back then, the Merchant Guild was on the verge of collapse. Thanks to the Helmsman for turning the tide. Now, you've even recovered the swordsmithing techniques. You've given the Merchant Guild a new lease on life…"
"No need for thanks, my purpose isn't that simple, you should understand." Shin'yu said indifferently.
"Please rest assured, Helmsman, I will definitely pass on the 'Hundred Hands Style' and will not let you down!" Niwa Maya said firmly, "By then, the Merchant Guild's profits will definitely rise, and we'll be rolling in money!"
"Oh, Shin'yu-kun, you're here!" Niwa Yukino noticed Shin'yu's figure, her lotus steps moved lightly, and her beautiful eyes were affectionate, "It's been a year, and you're looking more energetic than ever…"
"Call him Helmsman." Light glared coldly, "And don't get too close, some people should mind their manners."
Shin'yu was helpless and could only take Light and Kakuzu to the Merchant Guild's Finance Department. After all, this was the real purpose of his trip.
As usual, he took his share of the profits for the year. When a full 360 million Ryō in real gold and silver was handed over to Shin'yu, Kakuzu's… eyes widened.
Light was used to it, crossing her jade legs and leisurely drinking tea. Her world was really simple.
"What's going on this year? The profit has doubled compared to last year." Shin'yu was also a little surprised.
"Ah." The little sister from the Finance Department blushed and quickly explained, "It may be because of the cross-border export business and policies launched by the chairman last year…"
"Cross-border? I remember it was always domestic sales before?"
"Yes, Helmsman is right…" The little girl didn't dare to look directly at Shin'yu's face. There was no way, his innate conditions were too good, his outline was clear, his nose was high, even if his eyes were covered, he was still handsome, to the extent that women would envy him.
Look at that skin, smooth and delicate, white as jade, setting off his light pink lips, making them exquisite and sexy, especially with his eyes covered, it made people's minds wander…
The little sister unconsciously bit her lip, and pink bubbles that gradually grew larger seemed to appear above her head, with scenes unsuitable for children flashing inside.
"And then?" Shin'yu tilted his head.
"Ah, Helmsman, you don't know, since this policy was implemented, we also have branches abroad…" she suddenly woke up and said softly.
Shin'yu touched his chin. Currently, both the Five Great Nations and the small countries are in a state of recuperation. The war six years ago consumed too many resources, but the Land of Iron is different. It is far from the war, has abundant mineral resources, and has excellent skills. With the promotion of cross-border business…
Well, it wouldn't be surprising if "Forging Blades Workshop" became world-renowned one day.
Shin'yu asked curiously, "Who are the customers for the orders?"
"The Five Great Nations, including the surrounding small countries, all have orders…"
Shin'yu increasingly felt that his initial decision to intervene in "Forging Blades Workshop" was really wise.
With the business finished, the three of them simply stayed in the Merchant Guild for a few days. Kakuzu seemed to have opened up a new world, plunging into the Marketing Department, trying to find out the Merchant Guild's market operation system. With Shin'yu's approval, Niwa Maya naturally told him everything he knew.
As the topic deepened, the two actually talked about economics, and they increasingly saw each other as talented.
Shin'yu was naturally happy to see this. He had already seen Kakuzu's business acumen. If he could provide him with a platform, he might become a business tycoon in the future.
If his subordinates are excellent, he, as the boss, will naturally benefit as well.
As for Light, she seemed to dislike this place very much, and she became very clingy as soon as she arrived, almost inseparable from Shin'yu, only reluctantly returning to her room at night, and then standing guard at the door early in the morning.
Speaking of which, since that night of the "Underwater Starry Sky," the relationship between the two has become noticeably closer, but neither of the tsunderes is willing to break through this layer of window paper, and in front of Madara, they tacitly show that they dislike each other.
This gives old Madara a headache.
One morning.
Inside Shin'yu's room, a slender Ninja Cat completed its intelligence report and dissipated into white smoke.
"Hmm... hasn't turned it in?" Shin'yu sat by the window, drinking tea, his fingertip unconsciously tapping the table.
That day, after hebestow Uchiha Nen the Secret Technique scroll of the Spiritualization Technique, he began to use the intelligence resources of the Cat House and began to observe silently. That day, after he conferred upon Uchiha Nen the Secret Technique scroll of the Spiritualization Technique, he began to use the intelligence resources of the Cat House and began to observe silently.
In Hidden Leaf Village, especially in the Uchiha Clan Territory, cats can be seen everywhere on the streets, corners, and eaves... The strength of the Cat House lies in the fact that Ninja Cats can not only speak human languages, but also communicate with ordinary cats, which has created the Cat House's powerful intelligence capabilities.
Using cats to monitor a 6-year-old child is easy, and the source of information is very reliable, after all, ordinary people would not suspect a small cat on the street.
Under the surveillance of the cats, Uchiha Nen has been acting as usual these days, except for going to that abandoned training ground to practice alone every day, there are no other abnormalities in his whereabouts.
In fact, Shin'yu's choice to teach him the Spiritualization Technique is actually a Trial.
If he turns in the Secret Technique, it means that he is still in awe of Hidden Leaf Village, and even though he has lived so miserably, he has no resentment, and still relies on and believes in the village and the Uchiha Clan, he is a useless wimp without a temper.
As an Uchiha, but without even the most basic paranoia, such a person is of little use.
In that case, Shin'yu would choose to never recognize him, let the real cause of Kagami's death be buried forever, and secretly protect Uchiha Nen's safety, giving him an ordinary but wealthy life.
But... even though several days have passed, Uchiha Nen has chosen to hide this matter, neither confessing to the village nor showing off to his peers, as if it were all a dream.
This great-nephew... is very interesting.
Shin'yu's lips raised, revealing a meaningful smile.
But he was not in a hurry to contact Uchiha Nen, and still chose to spy on him with Ninja Cats. The road ahead is still long, and there may be variables.
Perhaps, this Trial was unfair from the beginning, because it was full of uncertainty. Shin'yu had not decided on the Trial time or the Trial result, which was very unfair to the young Nen.
But life is an unfair Trial, whether it is him, his father Uchiha Kagami, or... Uchiha Shin'yu himself.
Time passed little by little in peaceful days.
