It is not difficult to see from two observations that although Deidara, a wanderer, wholeheartedly pursues his art, those who grew up with him in Iwagakure Village are still not able to be ruthless and righteous.

Therefore, if Deidara is used as a family bomb to sell door-to-door, no matter how stubborn the old man Onoki is, he will not fall out immediately. Moreover, people's mood will always be affected by family affection. First of all, Ohnoki at least will not be so suspicious that Akatsuki is selling inferior products, and after discovering the effectiveness of Thunder Pill, he will also have a feeling of "Sure enough, that boy is still going to Iwa" Such an idea is conducive to continued cooperation between the two parties in the later period.

Of course, in fact, these were not enough for Shuiyin Leng to choose Iwagakure Village. The real reason that made her decide to go to Iwagakure Village first was that Iwagakure Village was the only one among the five great ninja villages that officially hired the Akatsuki Organization for large-scale tasks. This point has been vividly demonstrated in the Five Shadows Conference in the original work. Onoki even expressed his own views, calling the Akatsuki organization a useful and efficient mercenary group, a must-have for dismantling armaments in every ninja village while ensuring the mission completion rate.

"Tch~! If the old man doesn't say anything and a Chendun attacks, I can't guarantee that we both will have time to escape, hmm~"

Compared to Mercury Lamp's calculations, Deidara's attitude was very awkward. It would be impossible to say that he had no feelings, but he obviously didn't like meeting those relatives who he considered to be 'artless' , can be regarded as a role model of a naughty child. He will run away when he says he wants to and will never look back. He will become bad when he says he wants to get bad without hesitation.

"Okay, stop mumbling, we are about to go to Iwagakure Village. Later, you'd better show some attitude like a homebound wanderer, otherwise~!"

She closed the makeup mirror in her hand with a snap, and the mercury lamp also showed a smiley expression.

"I can't guarantee that you will receive the fastest Konoha magazine next time."

(PS1: Ah~~ With the development so far, I can only create some original plots~~ It is still very difficult.)

(PS2: Alas~ Now I know why they are all BOSS, but Orochimaru has been so miserable, just because he has no background. What, you said he saved a snake's life in the end? Yes, that's because he became the first The second male protagonist Sasuke’s teacher~~)

so-called negotiation skills

This world is not materially fair, so even if they are all five major countries, the geographical environment of each country is different. The Land of Earth is a country surrounded by mountains, including the Iwagakure Ninja Village. The huge mountains on the border make it a natural fortress. Although its defense capabilities are strong, it also restricts it to some extent. its external communication. What this kind of closed area will cause is that its technological level will inevitably fall behind, and it will be difficult for any major changes to occur.

Just from the age of the Sandaime Tsuchikage and Onoki, we can see some sense of 'stubbornness' in this country. The third generation Hokage, Sarutobi Hiruzen, was 69 years old. He was so old that he could almost be buried with half of his body, which was simply unimaginable for a ninja. But the third Tsuchikage was 79 years old, a full ten years older than Sarutobi. At this age, there is still no fourth generation Tsuchikage who can succeed him. This can already explain the current political situation of Iwagakure Village. In a word: stable and old, firm and obsolete.

"For a stone, 79 may be very young, but as a human being, a ninja, and even the shadow of a village, this is really surprising."

The advantage of Mercury Lamp's character is that as long as she speaks, she will never lie or hide her true thoughts. The good thing is that people who communicate with her can judge part of her true psychological activities from these words, but the bad thing is that she is quite good at consciously creating 'illusions' with 'truth' through covering up and concealment. Facing her is like facing a maze of multiple choices. There is indeed one correct way out, but whether you can choose the right direction depends mostly on luck.

"Hmph! Even if I live another ten years, I will be more than enough to be the shadow of this village! Stop talking nonsense, what is the purpose of the Akatsuki organization coming here?"

Sitting not far in front of the mercury lamp and Deidara was an old man who looked quite old and short. Whether it was his big nose or his gray beard and hair, he looked like a pure stubborn old man. That’s all. But such an unattractive person is actually an old guy who has ruled Iwagakure Village for nearly 60 years. This period of time even exceeds half of a person's life. No matter how stable Iwagakure Village is, if he wants to guarantee his dominance for 60 years, it already shows how terrifying this guy is. For humans, living long enough is an undeniable strength in itself.

Deidara obviously knew a lot about the defense facilities of Iwagakure Village. He took the mercury lamp to the hilltop next to Iwagakure Village without any effort. The message was even simpler. He threw a clay bird directly into Iwagakure Village. , less than ten minutes later, the Sandaime Tsuchikage with a black face rushed over in person, and there were very few people with him. It was still the same black soil and red soil as in the original work. Obviously, this old man did not want it either. Too many people know that they have come to see this traitorous disciple.

"So far, the cooperation between Iwagakure Village and the Akatsuki Organization has been perfect. Therefore, this time, our Akatsuki Organization plans to give back to our old customers. We have a new good thing that we hope to introduce to you."

Mercury Lamp's style was not to be sloppy at all, and he directly took out a thunder pill scroll he carried. The difference from Konoha Village is that the scrolls here are red, and have the characteristic pattern of the Akatsuki organization, which is a red cloud pattern on a black background, which can be regarded as the company's unique LOGO.

"Oh~ What can a rebel ninja organization have? Or..."

At this time, Kurotsuchi beside the Tsuchikage suddenly spoke rather narrowly, and his eyes were fixed on Deidara, who had an impatient expression on his side: "Is it the kind of clay figurine that big brother made?"

"Hey~! Kurotsuchi, what do you mean? Are you looking down on my art? Yeah."

Deidara was the kind of salty fish who would jump up even though his hook was straight and the bait was salty. Kurotsuchi's words made him speak uncontrollably. And with a rather sly smile, Kurotsuchi glanced at the mercury lamp beside Deidara with meaning: "Brother, we are not outsiders, what are you going to do? Just say no? But, if it is really those people As for the clay figurines, I think Iwagakure Village may not be interested in appreciating them, well, although I personally like them~"

"Hmph~ What do you know? I am now the leader of the Qinglong Sect's figurines. The art I pursue does not need to be promoted deliberately. You, a duplicitous yellow-haired girl, should stop acting there. I don't think you can appreciate my art. kindness."

Deidara is obviously very elegant now and quite confident in his artistic knowledge. Mercury Lamp was not in a hurry, but stopped his sales pitch with great interest, planning to wait until Deidara and Kurotsuchi finished reminiscing.

After all, for her who is familiar with the original work, she knows very well how much potential this cute-looking Kurotsuchi has. The other person is the person who will inherit the position of the fourth generation Tsuchikage in the future, and his political talent must be extraordinary. Now, you can observe the opponent's routine first, which can be regarded as gaining experience.

Seeing that the mercury lamp was not in any hurry, Ohnoki on the opposite side also raised his eyebrows slightly. As a veteran ninja who has lived longer than most people, he has long since learned to read people's hearts through actions and words. The white-haired girl in front of me must indeed be a member of the Akatsuki organization, but in the usual mission cooperation between Iwagakure Village and the Akatsuki organization, there are no tasks completed by her. In short, the other party is a senior member who does not participate in ordinary tasks. Moreover, she was not impatient, which meant she was not worried about her pitch failing.

This last one is intriguing, as it means that either the failure of the sales pitch has little impact on her, or that she is confident enough to ensure the success of the sales pitch.

Forget the former result, but if you want to achieve the latter result, it means that this kind of promotional item must be something that Iwagakure Village and even the Earth Country need desperately. Guess what it is, and what is the next negotiation? Very beneficial.

"Deidara, you little brat has finally been killed by someone. So tell me, what exactly are you planning to sell to your village this time?"

Grinning slightly, Onoki simply bypassed the mercury lamp and planned to ask Deidara directly. This behavior was undoubtedly quite arrogant and extremely shrewd. According to Deidara's outspoken character, he was sure to get the information he wanted to know in advance. Moreover, it can also disrupt the Akatsuki organization's plan to send mercury lanterns to promote sales. No matter when, disrupting the opponent's routine will always bring great benefits. Whether the other party is angry because they are ignored, or anxious because information is leaked, there are flaws that can be defeated.

"Tch~! Stinky old man, if you want to know, can't you just buy a lot of them and study them slowly? My task is just to deliver the little mercury here. Hmm."

However, Deidara is obviously very familiar with Onoki's tricks. After all, he has been tricked by Onoki since he was a child. No matter how outspoken he is, he still has some brains. At the moment, he expressed his unwillingness to communicate with Onoki.

"You bastard! How did you talk to me? Or are you going to force me to clean up the house now?"

Being snatched away by Deidara, Onoki immediately became furious. He slapped the ground in front of him and looked ready to take action. Akatsuchi next to him quickly and honestly stopped him: "Lord Tsuchikage, be careful of your back pain. attack."

Logically speaking, when you see the person you plan to sell to become furious, and the person is a shadow that can easily wipe out a hill, no matter how arrogant the salesman is, he should be nervous, and then naturally give the person some 'face'. This allows both parties to have steps to climb down, but naturally they will fall into a certain degree of passivity.

However, Mercury Lamp still had a smile on her lips, watching Ohnoki roaring at Deidara with an outsider's attitude, giving the impression that she was watching some street ethics drama, without any intention of stopping her. , and there was no sense of fear at all. And her behavior like this directly made Onoki on the side feel embarrassed about being looked at as a monkey. He was half angry and half wary: this white-haired girl is indeed not an ordinary person, or she can tell. Onoki was acting, or she had enough confidence to escape from Onoki's hands.

Therefore, after confirming the expression of the mercury lamp, Onoki, who was furious, finally sat down again with a "cut" sound on his face, and then seemed to snort from his nose: "That... .Who, what did you just say?”

"Ah, I mean, the Akatsuki organization hopes to promote a new product to Iwagakure Village, and it is guaranteed to greatly benefit Iwagakure Village."

When Ohnoki mentioned himself again, Suiyin Leng did not act pretentious, but still said with a bright smile: "So, do you want to listen? Lord Sandaime Tsuchikage?"

"Hmph, then just say it, I'm listening."

Although Ohnoki still looked like a stubborn old man who didn't want to answer questions, in fact he had begun to pay attention secretly. It can be seen from Deidara's lack of interest in this sale that the goods being sold this time are not those luxury-like figures. Moreover, the Akatsuki organization's confidence in this product can also be seen from the mercury lamp's attitude of not worrying about the transaction at all.

"Then let me tell you, it's actually very simple, that is: a new energy scroll that can make Raimaru in Konoha Village unable to sell."

"That's all."

(PS1: When it comes to marketing, remember: the more picky and fault-finding the buyer is, it is proof that the buyer wants it more. Otherwise, who has the time to waste their saliva on something they don’t want.)

(PS2: When selling to a force, you need to understand: what you should say is not 'this thing will make you very awesome', but 'this thing will make your opponent's force very bad'... .There are so many tricks...)

Chapter 112: Routine of Routine

What is a ninja? To put it bluntly, this is a group of legal killers who make money by killing people.

What is Ninja Village? It is a legal killer market that relies on accepting killing tasks in batches to maintain income.

What is the Great Ninja War? This is a national-level fight launched by a group of market killers to grab business and territory.

So, what is the relationship between different ninja villages? Well, Sunagakure and Konoha, who seemed to be allies, had just had a fight two years ago, right? Judging from the results, both sides are still dead, and between the ninja villages that are not even allies, do you still need to ask?

Therefore, after thinking for about three seconds, Onoki nodded decisively and agreed to the transaction request.

Although Iwagakure is indeed the most closed village in the entire ninja world, this is only due to its geographical environment. The most important thing for ninjas is information. If Iwagakure does not even understand the development of other villages If so, the village would have been wiped out long ago by Yunyin Village, who was watching eagerly from the side.

Konoha Village has developed so fast in the past two years that no other village could have expected. Ohnoki alone has received several reports every month on average in the past two years about ninjas who were suppressed or defeated by Konoha ninjas in encounters due to insufficient equipment. This really gave this stubborn old man quite a headache, but there was nothing they could do about it. What they found in the Konoha ninjas who had spent so much effort to defeat them was a ninja configuration that far exceeded that of their own village, including but not limited to more solid and comprehensive ninjas. Armor, sharper and lighter weapons, and even the cunning ninja dogs that accompany the team are all factors that cause the ninjas of Iwagakure Village to lose in encounters.

Therefore, Onoki has already strengthened the surveillance and restrictions on Konoha Village, and the information obtained basically points to one person, the eldest lady of the Hyuga clan, the youngest political advisor in Konoha Village and even the entire ninja world. Elder - Hinata Hinata.

Development can be traced, and Onoki concluded that it was this white-eyed girl who was good at economic development that led to a series of rapid progress in Konoha Village. It was her series of measures that gave Konoha a far better future than usual. With the extra income from the mission, they have enough economic strength to enhance the village's military development.

Therefore, Onoki is very concerned about the youngest Konoha elder. He basically observes carefully the development projects promoted by him. Recently, the so-called chain saw industry started by the other party has unsurprisingly attracted Ohnoki's attention. First of all, the so-called Toad Sage who advertised was none other than Jiraiya, one of the Sannin of Konoha. Such a powerful individual from another village would itself cause a wave of information boom. The second reason is that this chain saw is really easy to use.

For ninjas, they may not have a concept, but for ordinary people, this is a tool that can free them from heavy physical labor. Ohnoki originally thought that this kind of thing would be quite expensive, but in fact the price of the chain saw was extremely cheap, only the total price of ten axes.

Ohnoki was quite confused about this situation at first, but after he personally ordered the Intelligence Collection Department to purchase a chain saw from the Land of Fire, he immediately understood the purpose of this thing.
