Both of them were about to overflow with question marks.
The red-haired boy didn't say that she was fanciful - after all, it might be her employer, and a good ninja would not make any comments about the employer's nonsense as long as the employer paid him.
He just asked very calmly:
"Do you think you have the ability?"
"Why not?"
Even though she didn't have it originally, Yu Yue gained confidence after experiencing the Sugar Syrup Competition.
There is no other reason. People in the ninja world pay almost no attention to spiritual needs (not to mention illusions), but humans happen to be creatures with extremely high spiritual needs.
So for Yu Yue, this is a vast blue ocean, just waiting for her to build a ship and occupy it.
Apart from other things, Yu Yue feels that she can still be considered as a dimensionality reduction attack in projects such as entertainment and marketing.
After all, the solution she could come up with had been verified by billions of people and was indeed feasible. Even if it couldn't be replicated 100%, it was just like the same type of question without changing the title. She could completely adjust it according to local conditions and then use it.
Yesterday’s syrup competition was a good example.
This proves that novelty and excitement can attract people to open their wallets and donate generously.
"The heroes of the ninja villages have all sorts of heroic deeds, and these heroic stories are always very popular. With this foundation, plus the fact that ninjas are already well known to people in this world, why isn't there a market for them?"
"Besides, even if ordinary people living in other cities cannot accept it for the time being, what about the residents of the Ninja Village? What about the relatives and friends of the residents of the Ninja Village who are living outside? As long as the market can be opened up, there is no need to worry about not having new and unique ways to promote them."
Of course, she has other entry points besides this.
Yu Yue stood up, slammed her hands on the table and stared at the two people in front of her: "Don't you want to do something big that will impact the world?"
With the omnipresent ninja around, are you still worried that you won’t be able to launch a viral information attack?
What’s more, there is also the guarantee of the sugar syrup competition that just ended.
It is entirely possible to produce a batch of 'winning contestants' series of peripherals first to allow the market to adapt.
Then use blind boxes, raffles, buy-one-get-one-free, joint names, etc. to promote it.
There are plenty of ways.
In addition, the simple residents here have almost no spiritual enjoyment except fighting and killing...
Why worry about not succeeding?
Speaking of this, Scorpion and Orochimaru... couldn't help but feel a little tempted.
I'm not completely convinced, but at least if I follow her logic, this method works.
On the battlefield, they will fight even if there is a 30% chance, not to mention this one that sounds reliable.
Orochimaru licked his tongue.
"So, what are we going to do?"
"Rethink the plan."
Yu Yue rejected both of their plans.
“What we need is a product that can be accepted by the vast majority of people. It doesn’t need to be unique or have a huge number of functions. Ah, I’m not saying that we completely deny functions. In fact, we can iterate and update these in subsequent products.”
She waved her hand.
"We can even release a new model every year, and optimize each generation of products. We can also make limited editions, regional editions, or even luxury collector's editions. You can put any reasonable new technologies on them. It won't be a problem."
'Limited edition', 'rare' - those are the real money-making monsters.
If it were to become a blind box model, I wonder how many people would be drawn to it.
The two were obviously shocked by Yu Yue's series of mature and novel plans, and even she stopped talking without saying anything else.
“So don’t worry about not having a place to use your talents.”
Seeing that the two seemed to have accepted the appeasement, Yu Yue would of course raise new demands next.
"So at this stage, I hope you two can suppress your talents and make ordinary dolls that meet the public's aesthetic standards so that we can carry out the early promotion work."
She stood up, her eyes slowly moved between the two of them, then she bent down and said solemnly:
"Please."
When she said that, the whole atmosphere changed.
The time, the place, the atmosphere...she got them all just right.
Even though both of them were experienced ninjas, it would be difficult for them to say "no" at this point.
On the one hand, it is because their opponents are from other ninja villages, and it would be difficult for them to explain to their superiors after they withdraw.
——Did the opponent take over the matter, or did they withdraw on their own initiative, which led to this outcome. They could guess what the senior people would say with their eyes closed.
It's nothing more than those:
"You actually gave it to someone else? Do you want to betray the village?"
'It's so embarrassing'
"You actually lost to the Sand Village of Konoha and voluntarily admitted defeat. Do you want to humiliate the village?"
"There is no ninja like you in Konoha Sand Village."
Although for people like Scorpion and Orochimaru, these words are no longer a big deal, but the buzzing of mosquitoes can still be annoying, right?
And then there is…
As ninjas who excel in technology, they were really interested in Ugetsu's suggestion of "being able to fully display their skills".
Indeed, how boring would it be if the enemy could only see it on the battlefield?
Let more people see and support my technology, and understand my aesthetics and art...
Not bad.
Anyway, they do have a lot of skills that are not used in combat or ninja work, and it would be okay if they could be demonstrated.
Just like Ms. Ugetsu said, we are not at a war stage now anyway.
What's more, it is not uncommon for them to join forces with other ninja villages.
Besides, this is the client's request.
After thinking it over several times, the two of them willingly withdrew their previous plans.
Uchiha Shisui, who had been worried about Yu Yue, also breathed a sigh of relief.
While Yu Yue was speaking passionately and boldly, he stood tense and on guard behind her.
After all, the two people in front of her are both well-known strong men in their respective ninja villages. Although they may not say anything on the surface, if Miss Yu Yue really offends them, she will be hated by them.
Even a small action that seems insignificant to them could cause unpredictable harm to Miss Yu Yue.
But no matter what, Miss Yu Yue's actions once again made him look at her with new eyes.
——This is really amazing.
Ordinary people.
Even the client would often feel a little weak when facing a famous ninja.
Although I'm not afraid, it's still hard to directly deny and make a request like this.
After all, the perception that ninjas are stronger than ordinary people and can take human lives at any time has long been deeply rooted in people's minds.
In addition, the powerful ninjas often carry an undisguised aura and murderous intent, which makes it even more difficult to bear. In fact, many young ninjas from the same village or weaker Chunin find it difficult to answer them fluently when facing them.
Miss Yu Yue, an ordinary person, not only did it, but also actually convinced the two to act according to her request.
It's really amazing.
besides……
Even people from different ninja villages can work together in such a calm state.
He couldn't help but feel a little excited.
The Uchiha, who had no deep blood feud, would surely be able to get along better with everyone in the village.
Uchiha Shisui suddenly became full of confidence about this.
Ugetsu, who had his back to Uchiha Shisui, of course had no idea what he was thinking at the moment. He just took out a white paper seriously and started a formal meeting with the two of them to explain his needs.
In addition to the previous points, she added some secondary requirements, such as controlling costs while mass production, not having too many processes while making the product look good, and short production time to allow for rapid distribution.
"It would be best if we could produce the finished product within the next two days... Anyway, it's not a difficult task for elites like you. How about the day after tomorrow? The day after tomorrow, you can produce two or three samples, and we'll finalize it. We'll try to produce the samples the day after tomorrow, and the day after tomorrow we can start arranging the production and launch of the finished product. While the heat of the Sugar Syrup Competition is still there, we'll make a small batch to test the waters."
——Actually, I don’t think it’s particularly good.
The two looked at each other.
Inventions and creations do not involve using ready-made ninjutsu. You can't just ask for it.
But since my cooperation (competition) rivals haven’t raised any objections, how can I say no?
So neither of them answered.
Since there was no objection, Ugetsu would just take it as their consent - what a pity, she had even prepared the words 'you guys can't even do the minor adjustments I'm doing, right'.
But it was a good thing that she had no objection, so she continued.
"…Just make the samples, and I'll take care of the rest."
The girl took a deep breath and finally made a summary.
"Any other questions? If not, let's adjourn today and meet again tomorrow."
Scorpion and Orochimaru looked at each other, and Scorpion stood up first and prepared to leave.
"Ah, wait a minute." After Yu Yue said that, the curly-haired boy next to her cooperated very well and brought over two bamboo tubes.
"This is the new milk tea from Yuyue Store. You haven't tried it yet, right? Please try it. If you have any opinions on the taste, you can also let me know tomorrow."
Although it has just come out, Yu Yue is already considering product iterations.
When it comes to food and drink, competition is bound to be fierce no matter where you are.
Popular products are also prone to imitations - even if the imitation degree is not 100%, but 60 to 70 percent, there will be people willing to try it.
If we have a price advantage, it will be easier to seize the market.
Therefore, product development must never stop.
Although Yu Yue had some ideas in his mind.
For example, red bean milk tea, pudding milk tea, taro paste bubble milk tea and so on, I have already asked Pharmacist Dou to develop them.
But when it comes to taste, you have to consider the local characteristics first.
——If everyone was as sweet as before.
Thinking of the previous sip of double sweet milk tea, Yu Yue felt her throat tighten.
If that's the case... then she'll have to adjust the sweetness to suit the local taste.
It would be best to meet with Pharmacist Dou later to see if he has any opinions.
Ugetsu admired his abilities and even planned to hand over the internal operations of the orphanage to him after observing him for a while. That way, Yakushi Nono, who was an adult and a medical ninja, would have the energy to take charge of other tasks. She still had a lot of projects in her mind that needed people to prepare.
And there is her own treatment, which cannot be delayed.
She had no money and no conditions before, but now she has money and conditions, so of course she chooses the on-call treatment method.
But right now, there is a more important problem that needs to be solved.
Thinking of this, Yu Yue threw away the pen and leaned back, and under Uchiha Shisui's puzzled and questioning eyes, he let out a long, long sigh.
"What's wrong?"
Uchiha Shisui considerately put down a cup of three-point sugar milk tea that suited Ugetsu's taste. Then he heard the girl complain in a very childish way:
“No one!”
“There are simply not enough people!”
Milk tea requires people, syrup requires people, and the blind box business requires people.
The new "Wind and Cloud Ninja" IP plan also needs people, and there are various other projects...
She also had to find time to talk to other businessmen about matters such as cooperative purchasing.
Given the current situation of the Boy Scouts in the store, it is really difficult to support it.
This gap cannot be solved by simply working 996 or 007.
If we compare, at this stage, we need at least 4 more Uchiha Itachi, 2.5 Hatake Kakashi or 1.5-2 Uchiha Shisui.
That's it.
Although compared with the two Uchiha brothers, Hatake Kakashi's work attitude is somewhat problematic, Ugetsu still highly recognizes his abilities.
...Plus, some jobs are destined to keep people in one place, which is not worth it.
As he was thinking, Yu Yue's gaze fell on Shisui's face again.
Then, as he tilted his head in confusion, his eyes lit up:
"Shisui."
"I am here."
"Among you Uchiha, are there any talents like you?"
It would be best if there is someone like you. If not, 0.8 of you will be fine too. She won’t mind!
Perhaps feeling that her requirements were too high, Yu Yue lowered them a little.
"Or someone with a similar level to Itachi and Kakashi will do. It's better if they're adults, but it doesn't mean they can't date if they're not adults."
Although Yu Yue needs more young and middle-aged labor, if the ability is outstanding, then minors are not out of the question.
After arriving here, the first local common sense she realized on her own was that 'a ninja's ability is not directly linked to his age'.
The strong will always be strong, even if they are only seven or eight years old.
Ordinary people or those with limited talents…when they reach adulthood, they will just be an ordinary person who can complete their work at a passing level.
The more Ugetsu thought about it, the more it seemed like a good idea.
First of all, Shisui definitely knows his own people better, so he can make internal recommendations with confidence.
Secondly, according to the ninja's "bloodline", if a bloodline is very excellent, it is more likely to produce geniuses - then with the blood of outstanding employees like Shisui and Itachi, there will be more outstanding employees... and the chance of geniuses should also be greater.
at last……
Ugetsu narrowed his eyes.
It is also very important to note that 'Uchiha' and 'Hokage' are not from the same system.
Just like the old saying 'don't put all your eggs in the same cage', Yu Yue can't have just one partner.
Especially when this object has overwhelming power and influence, putting all your hopes on it is like trying to get the skin of a tiger.
Therefore, it is necessary to find another support for balance.
And at the moment, Uchiha is the most suitable choice.
Uchiha Shisui was stunned for a moment, then thought for a moment:
"Is it okay if you don't have to be a professional ninja?"
"It doesn't matter, just be hardworking and patient. No, I am
I just want someone who can handle the pressure of work and get the job done. As for other qualities, I will screen and review them when I recruit them. ”
Yu Yue realized that she was being too blunt, so she changed her words temporarily.
It doesn't matter, anything is fine.
Anyway, let’s talk about it later after the people arrive.
Only when the base is sufficient can there be enough choices.
In addition, the "temporary workers" you have worked with before should not be let go.
For example, Uchiha Mikoto, with whom she once worked happily, and Uzumaki Kushina.
Both of them are very talented.
I heard that the two of them rarely take ninja jobs now and focus on their family. Yu Yue thinks it’s a pity - ninjas are such a waste of God’s talents.
Because there is an excellent ninja working at home, the wife takes a back seat and stays at home.
This is simply a huge waste of not having steamed buns when you have rice.
It would be fine if the child is still young and can't leave his mother, but Itachi from Miss Mikoto's family can come to work for her, so he doesn't need to stay at home just anymore.
Miss Kushina hasn't even had a baby yet.
After briefly venting his jealousy towards the Hokage, Ugetsu felt that he had found a new path.
That is... regular ninjas are hired stably at reasonable prices. She can choose to hire these female ninjas who have retired to the second line after marriage.
At most, you can sign a quarterly contract, a half-year contract, or a one-year contract. You can resign if you have personal reasons or if Konoha assigns you a mission.
This way they would have an income, and Yu Yue wouldn't have to snatch those active ninjas, and they could even make flexible adjustments to the price.
Isn't this a huge profit?
Although this goal may not be accepted by the public in the short term, if Miss Mikoto and Miss Kushina can serve as role models, I believe the chances of achieving it in the future are still very high.
——After all, it is a good way to find employees in the future.
Uzumaki Kushina aside, Uchiha Mikoto was very surprised by Ugetsu's invitation.
"You mean... you want to hire me?"
As a certified ninja, Uchiha Mikoto certainly had experience in carrying out missions. She was even an elite 'jounin' among the entire ninja community.
But since getting married, she, like most other female ninjas, has left the front line and taken care of the family.
Haven't been commissioned to do any work in many years.
Especially this kind of
Ming' work.
"That's right."
The girl nodded seriously.
"Ms. Mikoto has a rare and excellent work ability. I think you are the most suitable talent."
Noticing Uchiha Mikoto was about to shake her head, Ugetsu hurriedly continued.
"Please don't rush to refuse. This is a decision we made after careful consideration."
"If you are worried about Itachi, Itachi-kun is also working here with me now. It would be better for you two to take care of him together. If you are worried about your family...excuse me for being blunt, the head of the Uchiha clan is definitely not a terrible adult who can't take care of himself without anyone around, right?"
——Of course not.
Even though he hardly does housework, and when he gets home, besides working and training his son, he just drinks tea, reads newspapers, and waits for meals, he is definitely not "unable to take care of himself".
It is normal for ninjas to be away for three to five days when on a mission. How can they complete the mission if they can't even take care of themselves?
"That's it, isn't it?"
Yu Yue slapped her thigh.
"If your usual job focus is to take care of Itachi, you can do that here as well. As for taking care of the Uchiha clan leader... As an excellent adult male with good self-management ability, he doesn't require too much of your energy and time."
"Then most of your day is actually wasted."
Yu Yue put on a worried expression, with a look of 'What should I do with you? I'm so worried.'
“Is that so?”
"Yes. With your ability, you can definitely do more, create more value - you can even play a leading role."
I won’t talk about whether it’s valuable or not, but…
“Leading role?”
Although Uchiha Mikoto is the wife of the Uchiha clan leader, she is also an elite class jonin.
But when it comes to 'taking the lead'... that's something that has nothing to do with her.
Or rather, the idea never occurred to me at all.
"Yes, you see, you are one of the elites of the Uchiha clan, and a beloved wife of the clan leader. Therefore, your actions are very instructive to the young people of the Uchiha clan."
"Even if you don't consider these, you can always try out the Uchiha children first."
Before she had fully digested the previous concept, a new one came up. Uchiha Mikoto couldn't help but follow Ugetsu's train of thought.
"That's right. What's the working environment like? What are the job duties? Is there any possibility of promotion? You can use this wasted time to test the young Uchiha people."
"but……"
Uchiha...it seems unnecessary?
"Don't you want the Uchiha children to have more and better opportunities for promotion?"
"Of course not."
"That's it."
Yu Yue simply changed the subject.
"I also know that this may be a very difficult choice for you, but I hope you can look further ahead. This will be a brand new opportunity for yourself and for the young people of Uchiha."
As a ninja who left the ninja world halfway, Yu Yue actually didn't know what the entanglement between Uchiha, Hokage and Konoha was.
But she knows clearly that 'interests move people'.
Although the status of Uchiha seems very special, and the Uchiha people are very united and independent - but you see, don't they still have to complete missions like other ninjas?
Even though most of them are in the Konoha Guard, there are also ninjas like Shisui who take on jobs.
As long as money is involved, there is nothing that cannot be discussed.
If you can't do it, just change the concept and regard "employee work" as a kind of "task".
It's just long-term.
Yu Yue's abacus was jingling loudly.
When other people heard that Yu Yue was recruiting workers, they also took action.
In the dark world where no light can be seen, Danzo Shimura summoned Shin again.
"Danzo-sama."
Xin knelt down on one knee.
"Go apply for the job."
"…Excuse me, what does it mean to apply for a job?"
Xin was confused for a moment.
"Ugetsu Store." Danzo said the name unhappily, "That little girl's store is hiring. You contacted her before, so you can go this time too."
As a person who has been playing tricks for many years, it is natural for Shimura Danzo to look at others with a questioning attitude.
That's why he didn't believe that Yu Yue was trying to win over people from other ninja villages just to make some puppets.
Can a ninja be used for such an inconspicuous little thing that doesn't make money?
This must be her shield, she must have some conspiracy.
But the old confused Sarutobi Hiruzen intended to let her develop, and Namikaze Minato, the candidate for the new Hokage, also protected her intentionally or unintentionally.
If he were to attack her directly at this time, he would be in a disadvantageous position.
If we can't arrest people directly, we can only place people there.
And Xin, as a child who has had contact before, is the best candidate.
"You must join in , no matter what the cost ."
"...I understand."
On the other hand, the Third Hokage thought about it and called his son Asuma Sarutobi again.
"Asuma."
"What?"
Asuma Sarutobi looked at his father's serious expression and became more nervous and straightened up as well.
What's the matter?
He also thought secretly.
The war is over, so logically there shouldn't be any more incidents on the battlefield...
No, that's not right. The end of the war doesn't mean the world will be at peace.
Is there a spy? Or is there a ninja village that needs to be infiltrated?
"I have a job for you."
"Well, I'm ready." Asuma Sarutobi nodded seriously.
"Go ahead."
"Ms. Yu Yue's store is hiring...you can go and help out for a while."
Asuma Sarutobi: So that's what I said...
"I'll go now...what?"
The third generation kindly repeated it again.
"Ms. Ugetsu and her products have left a very good impression on other ninja villages and merchants. There should be many business exchanges in the future. As the host, we in Konoha will naturally help."
There are always some kids who definitely can't do it.
But if we hire adults, it is inevitable that some people may just do a perfunctory job because they are just children.
So the third generation wanted to send Asuma over to help.
As a ninja with rich experience in the battlefield, and with this relationship with me, most of the trouble should be avoided.
The third generation thought that their ideas were very comprehensive.
Only Asuma Sarutobi slowly, slowly drew a question mark in his head.
I thought you were going to make me go through fire and water, but...
That’s it?
That’s it! ? ? ? !
