As the official outsourcing of Yuyue Store.
Xiaonan has long been accustomed to new demands from Miss Ugetsu, which may come from anywhere.
So this time, after receiving the notice, she quickly packed her luggage and prepared for the "business trip".
"Why are you going out again?"
Seeing Konan carrying her luggage and leaving, Uchiha Obito's face behind the mask frowned again.
This day comes and goes.
Do you take the matter of 'Xiao' to heart?
It’s not that Uchiha Obito is really that resentful.
But over the years, nothing about Xiao has gone according to his ideas and plans.
In the past, he turned a blind eye to them because he always had Black Zetsu, his like-minded helper.
But recently I don’t know what’s wrong with that guy. He keeps calling me and I can’t find him anymore.
There is no difference with or without him.
This is different.
How can he do it all by himself?
Although Xiaonan really didn't want to bother with this companion who was only making things worse, considering that he would make a fuss if she didn't say anything, she could only sigh:
"Then you bring the money?"
Uchiha Obito: "..."
That’s right, even villains have to face this simple difficulty.
No work, no money.
If you can take advantage of the chaos in the world to rob and rob others as you did in the past, then of course you don't have to worry about money.
But in a world like today where even the combat jobs for ninjas are decreasing, how much work can they get?
It also costs a lot of money to keep the organization running.
Even though they don't have the pressure of rent.
But the ninja tools and supplies needed by ninjas are not cheap either.
It's like a company recruiting people.
When you recruit people into your company, you can't ask them to bring their own set of office equipment, right?
We can’t always ask people to pay for the paper, pens, and notebooks they need, right?
So Xiaonan's words were neither emotional nor harsh.
But it immediately made Uchiha Obito shut up.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Xiaonan didn't take the opportunity to attack him with any more words.
Just carrying my luggage, I walked past people and headed in a completely different direction.
Enter.
And, going further and further.
Or maybe the two sides have already parted ways and headed in two different directions.
It's just that they haven't realized it yet.
In addition to the gold medal outsourcing Xiaonan.
Yu Yue did not let go of any capable people from other ninja villages.
Thus, a major project that brought together ninjas from the five major ninja villages was established silently.
If it were put in the past, this would undoubtedly be an unprecedented "project" that would go down in history - after all, this was a major project completed through the joint efforts of the five major ninja villages.
Different from the past "cooperation", this time they actually built a "paradise" on the wasteland.
However, after these few years of subtle influence, people have unknowingly become accustomed to this kind of work that is connected together, and no longer regard people from different ninja villages as "enemies".
Naturally, they would no longer be surprised and exclaim: "Oh my God, this is a collaborative project of the five major ninja villages."
Instead, just like every time I worked for Yuyue Store in the past, I was responsible for my own work according to the arrangement and project requirements, and then...
Compete secretly.
Although they are no longer enemies , they are from different backgrounds after all, so they still have to compete with each other.
Who wants to be second when you can be first?
Besides, this is a great opportunity to show myself to Miss Yu Yue and grab more projects from Yu Yue’s store.
If someone makes a comparison, can't I better demonstrate my ability?
So the ninjas from the five major ninja villages began to work together with the professional construction masters.
Some were responsible for building the road, and some were responsible for building the coastline - yes, they ultimately chose to 'build' a beach that met the needs.
"Dissolve Escape!"
"Wind Escape!"
"Melting Escape!"
Different ninjutsu crashed into the dark reefs on the seashore. The originally tall and upright reefs could not withstand the power of so many powerful ninjutsu, and they melted or shattered into the sea.
In this way, it is chipped away layer by layer with a force that is difficult to explain by science.
The slightly sloping foundation needed for the 'beach' was formed.
After the terrain is cleared, the ninjas from the Sand Village will be asked to fill the sand and lay the "beach", and a perfect crescent-shaped golden coast will be formed.
Here, the coast is being repaired, and over there, the ninjas from the Hidden Rock Village and the Hidden Cloud Village are
They are also busy building the ports, caves and most importantly, roads that Miss Yu Yue requested.
Later, this road, which is not long for the ninjas, will connect all functional areas from the port to the beach, including hotels, restaurants and shopping streets.
Although it is not long, once it is running, it will be a 'golden road' to create wealth.
"As for the hotel, it should be composed of two parts: the seaside resort and the multi-storey inn."
Yu Yue sketched a few times on the design.
"We have built twelve seaside holiday cottages here, all made of wood... Of course, being made of wood doesn't mean it looks simple. Both the interior and the exterior must be meticulously crafted, so that the nobles and wealthy can pay for them."
"Wait, is this for the nobles to live in?"
The Fourth Mizukage looked up suddenly.
"What else? Although these look like small houses, they are actually independent buildings - you can even think of them as mini seaside villas."
The Fourth Mizukage: "..."
After all, it's just a small wooden house... How can it be called a 'seaside villa'?
Where can you find such a simple villa?
"Why not make it bigger... like the inn in the Land of Hot Springs."
The Kingdom of Hot Springs receives so many nobles and wealthy people every year, so there must be a reason why they built the hotel like that, right?
In addition, the nobles never expressed dissatisfaction, which was enough to prove their satisfaction with that kind of hotel.
"That would be meaningless."
Ugetsu shook her head.
"If they like hotels like Hot Spring Country, why don't they go directly to Hot Spring Country? The reason they come here, to the beach, is to experience the unique customs of the beach."
Of course, there is nothing special about the ordinary wooden hut.
But combined with the 'sea view', it's a completely different story.
In addition, Yu Yue has its own killer feature - 'atmosphere lighting'.
Don't underestimate the "atmosphere light". The combination of log cabin and atmosphere light is a killer for all romantic people.
Whether it is desert or seaside.
When the evening ambient light is turned on, the whole scenery will instantly be elevated by eighteen degrees.
So you go and look at the promotional photos of various scenic spots that focus on folk customs.
Each one is evening + atmosphere light.
This photo is more effective than dozens of slogans.
You can also add a 'zero' to the price.
"If we want to run a hotel, we'll do high-rise."
Yu Yue said, nodding to the side.
“Here, we build high-rise buildings and sea view rooms.”
"Sea view room?"
"Yes, this side is all large floor-to-ceiling windows, allowing people to see the sea view without leaving the hotel. Ah, the rooms in this part are 30% more expensive than the rooms in the front that don't have a sea view."
Fourth Mizukage:?
A different location means it’s 30% more expensive?
Why don't you go and rob it.
“…This is not good.”
The Fourth Mizukage tried to persuade him tactfully.
"Why not? This is a sea view."
Yu Yue said earnestly:
"Why do people come to the beach? To see the sea view that they don't normally see."
A scenic spot is a scenic spot, and what it sells is the scenery.
"They can enjoy such a beautiful sea view as long as they stay at the hotel. It's only 30% more expensive than a room without sea view. It's really a good deal."
"When the time comes, we can put comfortable chairs and coffee tables by the window. Without leaving the house, we can sit by the window and sip tea while watching the tides, the sunrise and sunset over the sea... Don't you think it's great value? They've made a profit."
I'm not sure whether the Fourth Mizukage is worth it or not.
He now understood why Yu Yue Store was able to grow bigger and stronger.
She could sell a window for 130% of the price...
If she doesn't make money, who will?
Seeing that the Mizukage didn't say anything else, Ugetsu continued:
"The top two floors will still be the usual luxury suites, and it would be best if the top floor had a sky garden... But there's no rush for that, it can be done later when the product is upgraded."
It’s better not to do it for now, and then we can say it’s a hotel upgrade... and we can even increase the room rate by 10% or something.
"The people in the Sand Village know how to make supporting facilities. Just ask them."
Speaking of this, the Sand Village is an old hand.
The Fourth Mizukage's baby face has been completely numb.
He looked to the left and then to the right, but found that except for a few people from his own Mist Village, everyone else had a calm expression, as if they thought all this was normal.
Fourth Mizukage: No wonder the Sand Village is making so much money.
According to this design, they don't make money.
That's strange.
Thinking of this, the Fourth Mizukage became a little excited again.
After all, in this way, it is the Hidden Mist Village that will make money.
Even though due to the geographical location, they don’t earn as much as those in the Sand Village.
But even if it's only two-thirds, it's still better than the current situation in the Hidden Mist Village.
He was on fire.
When I looked at those drawings again, I no longer thought of them as simple pieces of paper.
This is clearly the treasure bowl in the hands of the God of Wealth!
Thanks to the hard work of the ninjas, the 'Ocean Park' project is progressing in an orderly manner.
The port was built and the beach was paved.
As a supporter of the project, Yu Yue was also the first person to experience it and stepped onto this new beach.
The soft sand sank under the influence of external force, and then the surrounding sand flowed along the sinking traces and covered Yu Yue's instep.
Step by step, Yu Yue's footprints left traces on the beach.
"How about it?"
The dutiful Uchiha Shisui stood beside her, ready to record Ugetsu's opinions.
"Well... passed!"
Yu Yue answered readily.
And it’s more of a ‘surprise’ than a ‘pass’.
In terms of foot feel, it is really quite comfortable.
I don’t know if the sand obtained by ninjutsu is so special.
The sand is fine and uniform, without any scratches on the feet.
The color is also very good.
Walking on it barefoot is even enjoyable.
"It's a pity there are no shells or anything to pick up."
When it comes to the beach, picking up shells is a classic activity.
Whether it represents family memories or carries the symbol of love.
Who hasn’t picked up a few beautiful shells when going to the beach?
Uchiha Shisui, who didn't know the meaning of 'picking up shells', tilted his head and said, "What kind of shells does Ms. Ugetsuki want?"
He just thought that Yu Yue had a sudden urge to want the shells.
This is also simple, just go into the sea and fish.
"It's not what I want, but..."
Ugetsu didn't know how to explain this to the ninja who had never experienced this concept, so he could only say vaguely:
“Isn’t it romantic to ‘encounter’ beautiful marine specialties on the beach?”
"Because I don't know what kind of beautiful shells I will encounter, I am more excited."
"I see."
Uchiha Shisui responded with a smile.
“That is indeed an expectation.”
Unlike Ugetsu who was looking towards the ocean, Uchiha Shisui just looked quietly at the girl in front of him.
As a ninja, he actually doesn't understand why a 'shell' can also carry romance.
After all, shells are so random that there is a chance that you won’t come across good-looking shells.
If that's the case, wouldn't you be disappointed?
But even if I don't fully understand what's so romantic about 'picking up shells', Miss Ugetsu is very cute for having this idea.
If she believed so firmly - then it must be a romantic thing.
"It doesn't matter if we don't have any. We can prepare some beautiful seashells and conch shells to buy in advance."
Ugetsu's next words interrupted Uchiha Shisui's thoughts.
"Ah, speaking of the seaside, there should be pearl oyster pearl powder."
"Or should I organize a clam opening event? I just don't know if there are enough pearl oysters..."
By the way, pearl oysters can be farmed?
It seems like I want to plant...what should I plant?
"Remember to go back and confirm...what are you laughing at?"
Yu Yue was halfway through thinking when she suddenly heard laughter coming from the side.
She turned her head and saw the young man smiling extremely brightly, which did not stop even after she opened her mouth.
"Sorry, sorry."
The boy raised his hand to cover his mouth.
"It's just that suddenly..."
He didn't finish - after all, he couldn't say that Miss Ugetsu, who was obviously talking about romance and suddenly talked about business, was very interesting to him, right?
Although he doesn't really understand romance, he still has basic emotional intelligence.
If he did so, he would surely make Miss Yu Yue angry again.
"never mind."
Fortunately, Ugetsu showed no signs of asking further questions.
"Anyway, after a few days of waves, something should be washed up."
"Remember to remind me to go back and ask the Fourth Mizukage about the pearl oysters...ah, it would be best if we could find a few skilled people to come."
"Then we can ask them to make various coconut shell and shell crafts."
How can you not bring back some special souvenirs when you come all the way to the beach?
Woolen cloth?
I am so considerate!
Yu Yue thought happily.
She was discussing with the people around her while walking back with her shoes in her hand.
On the beach behind them was a long trail of footprints left by two people.
When they reached the intersection of the beach and the gravel road, Yu Yue put down her shoes, shook her feet, and prepared to put them on:
"Then we shall..."
"etc."
However, as soon as she put one foot into the sandals she wore for walking on the beach, someone held down her arm.
"how?"
She looked up and saw Uchiha Shisui nodding in disapproval.
"Excuse me."
As the boy spoke, she felt herself suddenly fall backwards, and then her vision suddenly increased.
——She was picked up by someone.
"Isn't this better than having sand in your shoes?"
Noticing the gaze of Ugetsu in his arms, the curly-haired boy smiled and replied.
When he was still a boy, he could already run steadily carrying Yu Yue on his back.
Now that I've grown up and become stronger, it's naturally no problem for me.
"wait……"
"Then let's go."
Without giving Yu Yue a chance to refuse, the boy took a step forward.
Realizing that the boy had made up his mind and knowing that it would be useless even if she refused, Ugetsu sighed and then hooked her free hand around the boy's neck.
Forget it, if someone is willing to help, what reason do I have to refuse?
but……
"Just tell me if you feel tired."
"No."
The boy shook his head.
"Miss Yu Yue is very light, so it's no problem to hold her like this for three days and three nights."
Ugetsu: ...
I really don’t know whether to say he is so skilled or to marvel at the ninja’s incredible strength.
Yu Yue smiled helplessly, but the hand that was hooked around the boy's neck tightened a little.
After the two returned, Bai was still shocked.
He was fine when he went out, but when he came back he was held in Shisui's arms. Could something have happened at the beach?
After learning that it was just because his feet were covered with sand and it was inconvenient to wear shoes, the handsome boy breathed a sigh of relief. Then he seemed to remember something and said:
"By the way, Miss Yu Yue, Miss Xiao Nan has arrived.
"
"real?"
Yu Yue was overjoyed.
"Okay, now it's all done!"
Once Xiaonan arrives, the publicity campaign can begin!
As a noble who is born to be superior to others.
Their day is actually quite empty.
There is no need to earn money to support the family. The pillar of the family goes to work, and national affairs have nothing to do with him.
Someone has also arranged everything for food and drink.
Therefore, 'having fun' is the most important part of the lives of the nobles.
Otherwise, people would be bored to death.
Therefore, "fun", especially the rare "fun" that not everyone can get, and the "fun" that can represent one's own status, can almost be said to be the pursuit of every noble who has nothing to do all day.
That’s why so many people paid for the activities in Sand Village and those expensive projects.
Because all its features directly hit their "pain points".
It’s a pity that such activities don’t happen often.
So today, the young nobleman spent the day lying on the adjustable chair with nothing to do.
——You know what, this adjustable seat is really a great thing.
Being able to sit however you want really doubles the happiness.
In the past, you might suffer from waist and back pain if you stayed in the same position for a long time, but now with multifunctional seats, you don’t have to worry about that at all.
Just when he was posing and starting to clear his mind, there was a sudden noisy sound outside the door.
"My lord, my lord, you can't just go in like this..."
"This is my cousin's house, why can't I?"
As the words fell, the door of the room was suddenly opened.
"Cousin! I'm here to see you!"
——Unlucky child.
The young noble sat up unhappily.
"What's the matter?"
If there was anything that was wrong with his smooth and somewhat empty life, it was probably this cousin.
Probably because they were of similar age, the other party had always been having problems with him.
Including but not limited to competing for the attention of elders when they were young, ownership of toys, who has been to more places, etc.
As we grow older, our competitive spirit becomes stronger.
As small as the limited edition product of "Young Heroes".
As big as jewelry villa
.
He was obviously very angry because he had grabbed the new limited edition product from Yuyue Store, so why did he come here so soon?
"Nothing."
The young man who rushed in was no longer in a hurry.
Not only was he not in a hurry, he also sat down slowly, and then slowly took out an envelope from his arms.
"That is, I got an invitation letter."
"What invitation?"
The young nobleman didn't care.
Just an invitation.
If he can get it, how could I not have it?
However, the other party's words the next second made him unable to sit still.
"That's the invitation letter for the new project of Yuyue Store."
?
The young noble opened his eyes wide.
What invitation letter are you talking about?
What new project?
How come I don’t know?
Seeing his cousin wavering, the boy couldn't hide his smug smile.
"Ah, alas, Miss Ugetsuki and the Hidden Mist Village have set up a marine park project - they said it's for the next Chunin Exam, and now they're inviting qualified people to experience it in advance."
He particularly emphasized the word "qualified".
"And then I just happened to get the invitation letter - oh, actually I don't really want to go, but since I have the 'qualification', I can't just give face to the Ugetsu Store, right?"
He sighed exaggeratedly, with an expression that said, 'I don't want to, but there's nothing I can do.'
The young nobleman's face turned green.
Although he really hated the way this unlucky cousin always competed with him in everything.
But if you ask him to admit defeat...that is absolutely impossible.
They are both chosen ones by heaven, so why should this fight end with him 'losing'?
It’s not like he really can’t beat them.
So he cleared his throat and looked nonchalant:
"Oh, that's it."
"oh?"
Hearing what he said, the boy opposite showed a malicious expression.
"Why, cousin, you have one too?"
"How could I not have?"
The young noble changed his words.
Now…of course he didn’t.
But that's only for now.
"Really?"
The boy's smile deepened, and he looked like he was gloating:
"Then let's wait for good news from my cousin. Then we can go there together."
"Let's talk about it later. Maybe our time won't match."
The young noble raised his chin, looking like he was very busy.
The boy shrugged.
"Oh well."
He stood up.
"Then let's meet together with the invitation letter."
He emphasized the word 'invitation' again.
"Oh, by the way, this is the concept map of the Sea Park."
As he spoke, he pulled out a color-printed booklet from the envelope.
"Cousin, you can see where you want to go first - of course, if you don't make it, you can still see what it's like."
After the young man finished searching, he waved the "invitation" in his hand, leaving the young noble with an uncertain expression.
Although he kept saying "together", his attitude clearly showed that he was sure he couldn't go.
The young noble ninja picked up the 'concept map' he had placed on the table in annoyance.
When you unfold the exquisite picture album, you will see a beautiful bay.
There are blue waters and beautiful crescent-shaped beaches.
There are many parasols on the beach and people playing games.
In the distance, there are streets filled with delicious food and fashionable goods.
A little further away, there are some grand-looking buildings and some strange-looking facilities.
Although he didn't know what these were, he knew that this place was very novel and beautiful, which could be seen intuitively from the picture.
What's more, in addition to the picture, there is also a line of slogan:
'Yuyue Sea Paradise - giving you an unprecedented novel experience'.
Just this one sentence is enough.
Go, you must go!
So he immediately called his servant and asked him to get him an invitation letter right away - it didn't make sense that his unlucky cousin should have one but he didn't.
But soon, he knew why the unfortunate child became so arrogant when he left.
Because the qualification to obtain this "invitation letter" is not based on family background or status, but the old tradition of Yuyue Store: lottery.
This is fucking embarrassing.
If it came down to status and position, he didn't think he would lose to that unlucky cousin.
But a lottery is something that relies on metaphysics and luck...
He closed his eyes.
But when he thought about what kind of expression that unlucky cousin would have if he really didn't make the trip, he couldn't sit still.
"Go for it! No matter how much it costs, no matter what means are used!"
He gave orders to his followers.
"Everyone must bring me the invitation!"
