In the Hokage building.
Minato led Kakashi and Uchiha Tunan into the office.
"Hokage Sama, is there anything suitable for us?"
Hiruzen Sarutobi glanced at Uchiha Tunan, who was following behind Minato and looking at him with reverence.
He silently nodded to him.
Then he said to Minato, "There is a very troublesome E -level mission here. Take them to familiarize themselves with it."
"E class? Isn't the lowest level a D class?" Minato looked puzzled.
Hiruzen Sarutobi coughed and said,
"Ahem, it's mainly because the client this time is one of the first civilian Ninjas to join Konoha."
"This person was too old and his legs were paralyzed, so he asked someone to issue the task of cleaning the house."
"But he was only willing to pay two hundred taels of commission."
"Since he was a senior, we could only accept it."
"So it's like this..." Minato hesitated for a moment, considering whether he should accept this mission.
After all, this mission was only two hundred taels, and he had three people in his team.
According to the rules, he would be given one hundred taels, while Kakashi and Uchiha Tunan would be fifty taels each.
And the pork bone noodles would be sixty taels.
It was really too little.
Hiruzen Sarutobi also saw Minato's doubts and sighed:
"This mission has been released for several days, and no one is willing to accept it. After all, the reward is too little."
"If you are willing to accept it, the mission level can be recorded as D -level."
Uchiha Tunan looked at Hiruzen Sarutobi's tightly knitted brows with a distressed expression. He pulled on Minato's sleeve and said, "Minato Sensei, accept it."
Minato saw that Uchiha Tunan had no objections. He immediately nodded and said, "No problem, we accept it."
Sure enough, it was Tunan who was considerate.
Hiruzen Sarutobi smiled kindly at Uchiha Tunan and handed the task list to Minato.
The three bowed to Hiruzen Sarutobi and left the office.
The door of the office handed the task list to Uchiha Tunan.
"You understand the mission this time, right? I'll have to trouble you two then."
Uchiha Tunan took the mission list and smiled:
"I'm willing to help Konoha's seniors do something trivial, even if there is no reward."
Just as the three of them walked out of the Hokage building, they suddenly saw Kushina's half body stuck into the trash can, leaving only her legs fluttering outside.
"Kushina, what are you doing?" Minato's mouth twitched.
"Clang ---" Kushina seemed to be shocked, and she fell to the ground along with the garbage bin, burying it in the pouring garbage.
Kushina jumped out of the garbage bin, feeling crazy, and stuttered,
"Ah, nothing... nothing..."
Before he could say anything, he screamed and ran away.
"I still have something to do, I'll go back first!"
....
Under the eaves of a dilapidated courtyard in the center of Konoha.
A fierce-looking old man sat in a wheelchair and looked at the three:
"You are the Ninjas who took this mission, right?"
Minato smiled and patted Kakashi and Uchiha Tunan on the shoulder: "Yes, these two little guys will help you clean the house."
The old man nodded coldly and said,
"Well, you two little guys, pay attention. If you break something, you have to compensate for it according to the price."
After saying that, he pushed the wheelchair into the room and shouted.
"If I don't clean it thoroughly, I won't sign the mission sheet."
Don't think that just because I'm old, I can easily earn my money.
Minato told the two: "Then I'll go first. When you finish the task, go to the balcony of the Hokage building to find me."
With that, his figure disappeared in an instant.
For a D -level mission like this, the lead teacher didn't need to do it himself. He only needed to supervise.
Cleaning the room was not like catching a cat or a dog. There was no danger at all, so Minato was too lazy to waste time here.
Uchiha Tunan and Kakashi looked at each other, rolled up their sleeves and started to do the work.
Kakashi rarely did housework, but fortunately, he had Uchiha Tunan's advice to tell him to tidy up first.
However...
"Clang! Clang!"
Kakashi looked at the teapot on the ground, dumbfounded. He was speechless.
Just now, Kakashi wanted to put the teapot back into place, but just as he lifted it up, the handle directly broke.
"Damn brat, this is the teapot from the first Hokage." The old man who heard the voice rushed over angrily.
Kakashi only replied indifferently, "I will pay."
Hearing that Kakashi took the initiative to compensate, the anger on the old man's face instantly disappeared. He took out a small abacus from his pocket and began to calculate.
When I bought it back then, the price was twenty taels. Including the increase in the price now.
You have to pay me... two thousand taels.
Kakashi nodded and expressionlessly took out his wallet from his ninja bag. He began to count the money.
Uchiha Tunan, who was placing the sundries into the drawer, quickly stood up and stopped Kakashi who was foolishly giving money. He said to the old man,
"Grandpa, go and buy a new teapot now. The most expensive is only two hundred taels."
Unexpectedly, the old man snorted coldly and looked at Uchiha Tunan with an unhappy face.
"It has been so many years. This is already an antique. It is not expensive. What is expensive is the age and meaning."
"Can we discuss it? Kakashi just picked it up normally. I didn't expect the handle to suddenly break."
Kakashi did not want to waste time arguing over such a small amount of money. He pushed Uchiha Tunan's hand away and said,
"Don't say anymore. I will pay."
The old man took the two thousand taels that Kakashi handed over and stuffed it into his shriveled wallet.
"Hmph, that's enough. You guys can continue."
Uchiha Tunan sighed helplessly and said to Kakashi,
"Kakashi, you go back first. I am better at cleaning the room."
Kakashi did not want to do these garbage tasks in his heart, but he still whispered, "But this is my task."
Uchiha Tunan smiled warmly and patted Kakashi on the shoulder.
This is our mission. As long as we complete it, it will be fine.
Go back and cultivate properly. Increasing your strength is the greatest help to our team.
Kakashi hesitated for a moment, but in the end, he nodded and said, "Alright."
The old man glanced at Uchiha Tunan and warned,
"Little brat, you have already accepted the mission. You can't give up. After all, I have already paid."
Uchiha Tunan smiled warmly and said,
"Old grandpa, don't worry. I will do my best to clean up the room for you."
After saying that, he continued to tidy up the messy items.
Seeing that Uchiha Tunan was seriously tidying up, the old man felt relieved and went to the eaves to bask in the sun.
Just as Uchiha Tunan was helping to tidy up the bedroom, he suddenly saw a short blade hanging on the wall.
Uchiha Tunan narrowed his eyes slightly, took off the short blade and slowly pulled it out.
The short blade was as bright as snow, faintly reflecting a cold light.
Uchiha Tunan instantly recognized that this short blade was a precious chakra weapon.
He quietly put the short blade back to its original place and buried his head in sorting it out.
An idea emerged in Uchiha Tunan's mind.
