Capítulo 237: Zhang Miao's Interests
The geographical environment of the Land of Wind was harsh. The drought came all year long, the water crisis was everywhere, and a large part of its land was desertified. However, it could become one of the Five Great Countries in the Ninja World. Naturally, it had its own unique way of survival.
That was gold!
The Land of Wind was a great country that was rich in gold. One could even find high-purity gold ore in the wilderness. Relying on this gold, the Land of Wind could support the citizens and establish its Ninja Village, becoming one of the Five Great Countries in the Ninja World.
Although the gold mined by the Land of Wind had started to decrease over the years and the Daimyo of the country also intended to reduce the financial expenditure of Sunagakure, with the Fourth Kazekage Rasa taking over, these difficulties were also solved.
With his Bloodline Limit, the Fourth Kazekage could gather fine gold in the sand. Not only this ability was useful for offensive purposes, it also brought great wealth to Sunagakure.
If not for the Third War, with Rasa's ability, it would not be impossible for Sunagakure to become the richest village in the Ninja World!
Unfortunately, there were no ifs. Because of the war, no matter how rich the Land of Wind was, other countries could not sell supplies to them. After all, the serious consequences of providing for the enemy could not be made up with money.
Although Sunagakure and Konoha had signed a truce agreement, now Sunagakure was at war with the Iwagakure and Kirigakure. In order to not be involved again, Konoha did not dare to openly sell large quantities of supplies to Sunagakure They could only secretly sell some, but these amount was not enough to provide the entire village.
Therefore, the current Sunagakure lacked people and resources, but not money!
However, if their money could not be spent, it would be a piece of waste paper!
For example, Saba, who was just an ordinary Chuunin of Sunagakure, was willing to spend ten times the price to buy cigarettes, let alone Ebizo, who held high status in the village.
As Chiyo's younger brother, and one of the senior advisors of the village, Ebizo's status was not inferior to Konoha's Danzo and his other friends. It was normal for him to take out a stack of money to buy cigarettes.
After understanding this, Zhang Miao immediately reacted. He decisively took the stack of money from Ebizo and fiddled with it.
"Hm, a total of 300,000. You can buy 150 packs of cigarettes and give ten more as a bonus. I will also give you this limited-edition lighter from the Land of Fire. Thank you for your patronage!"
Zhang Miao waved his hand, and a pile of cigarette packs appeared on the ground. Seeing this scene, Ebizo immediately widened his eyes.
"What a useful ability!"
Although he was sighing, his movements were very neat. With a flick of his sleeve, the packs of cigarettes on the ground were rolled into his arms, and then he trotted back to his room.
Right after Ebizo left, Chiyo sighed.
"Sigh, Ebizo is a cunning fellow, but he has no ill intentions. He is only worried about me, his sister!"
"I know!" As soon as Chiyo finished speaking, Zhang Miao grinned again, "Alright, granny, hurry up and eat. The food is almost cold!"
After saying that, Zhang Miao picked up the bowl and ate. Seeing this scene, Chiyo also picked up a piece of meat and put it into her mouth, then revealed a face of satisfaction.
"It's really good!"
...
After eating, Chiyo and Ebizo sat on the edge of the pool as usual, while Zhang Miao sat next to Chiyo and peeled a piece of wood in his hand.
Now Zhang Miao no longer needed to rely on wooden carving to make money. He just treated it as a hobby. Anyway, he was idle now, so it was a great time to make some wooden statues.
Zhang Miao was carving Chiyo, a character he was familiar with. Soon, a statue of Chiyo controlling her puppets was completed
After he finished the statue, Zhang Miao carved a line of small characters on the base - "Chiyo - Puppet Master"
Just as Zhang Miao stopped, Chiyo's surprised voice came from the side.
"Oh, is it done?"
When Zhang Miao was sculpting, Chiyo's mind was no longer on fishing. Instead, she secretly looked at Zhang Miao from time to time, but because she was afraid that Zhang Miao would find out, she quickly turned her head to pretend to be fishing.
Now that Zhang Miao had finished, she could no longer suppress her excitement and looked at the statue in Zhang Miao's hand.
"Is my Little Ryu carving this old woman? Wow, it looks realistic, and the puppets are even more detailed!"
Being praised by Chiyo, even Zhang Miao was a little embarrassed.
"That... Actually, it's just so-so. Since you like it so much, I'll give it to you. Here!"
"For me?" Looking at the wooden statue that Zhang Miao handed over, Chiyo was immediately overjoyed. After receiving the wooden statue, she hugged Zhang Miao in her arms and laughed happily.
"Haha, my Little Ryu is warm and kind. He is much better than Little Sasori. Grandma is really happy, hehehehe..."
At this moment, Chiyo was laughing so much that even the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes appeared. It could be seen that she was really happy. After laughing, she looked at Zhang Miao with bright eyes.
"Little Ryu, since you like sculpting so much, how about Grandma teach you how to make puppets? You can even make your statues move. It's much more fun than wooden sculptures. How about it? Do you want to learn it?"
Chiyo was worried that Zhang Miao would be bored here, so she wanted to teach him the puppet technique to pass the time. As for the rest, she did not think too much about it.
But Ebizo was different. Right now, he had not completely believed Zhang Miao, so after hearing Chiyo's words, he was ready to stop her.
But before he could speak, Zhang Miao spoke first.
"I don't want to, I'm not interested!"
"..."
Zhang Miao's simple answer was completely beyond the expectations of Chiyo and Ebizo.
In Chiyo's opinion, a child like Zhang Miao should be very curious, and the puppet technique should arouse his interest.
In Ebizo's opinion, although Zhang Miao was young, as a ninja, he should know how powerful Suna's puppet technique was, so there was no reason for him to refuse.
But Zhang Miao refused, and he simply was not interested in it. So after hearing his answer, Ebizo immediately raised his eyebrows.
"Not interested in puppet technique? Then what are you interested in?"
"Good question! I will tell you. There are only two answers!"
Hearing Ebizo's question, Zhang Miao's eyes immediately lit up, and he extended two fingers.
"First is money. Because money can buy what you want. The second is beautiful girls. No matter how fun the puppet technique is, can it be as fun as having beautiful girls right? Don't you agree, Grandpa Ebizo?
Ebizo: "Cough, cough, cough...."
