Chapter 3: Would you consider a job that provides five insurances and one fund, monthly salary, 13th salary at the end of the year, or project bonuses?
"Tell me, where are all the goods you stole?"
The skinny little girl impatiently kicked the man who was tied up.
After Shisui subdued the men, she went to the tree and let Ugetsu down. The three men who were originally showing off their power became fish that she could slaughter at will.
"Huh, do you think we'll tell you this?"
The bearded man in the lead snorted disdainfully, obviously not taking the sickly-looking 'young lady' in front of him seriously.
The girl was not in a hurry, she just looked up at the boy standing beside her.
"Shisui, the sword."
"Okay, Ms. Ugetsuki."
The boy with black hair and black eyes, less than ten years old, smiled and handed over a kunai. Considering Miss Ugetsu's body shape, he specially picked a size that suited her hand.
Yu Yue nodded in satisfaction.
Then he looked at the three men in front of him, thinking about how they were eating and drinking before, and thinking about his life in the second round, which was like a hellish start. He immediately wanted to kill them.
Anyway, killing people is not against the law in this world, even if she...
No, it can't.
We have to keep these people in exchange for the bounty.
Thinking of money, Yu Yue calmed down.
Of course, money is important.
But we can't let it go like this.
These people eat and drink with their own hard-earned money, so she doesn't care about hospice care or not.
"Ms. Ugetsu?"
The black-haired boy gently called out to Ugetsu, who had taken the kunai but hadn't taken any action. He could see that she wanted to vent her anger herself, but considering her experience and age, it was no surprise that she didn't know where to start.
So he kindly suggested:
"If it's inconvenient, I'll come."
"No, I'm just thinking about how to start."
Ugetsu came to his senses and issued an ultimatum:
"If you don't tell me, don't blame me for being cruel."
Yu Yue held the kunai and gestured at the man's lower body.
All men regard the piece of meat down there as their lifeblood.
Seeing Yu Yue's posture, a trace of panic flashed in the man's eyes.
But he still shouted stubbornly: "Ha, you have to be brave enough to do it!"
If the boy hadn't said anything, a girl this young wouldn't even dare to kill a chicken, let alone
Attack him? If I can provoke her to break the rope... then I will have a chance to hold her hostage and escape!
Hearing his words, Yu Yue smiled slightly, her big eyes curved into a beautiful and friendly crescent shape. She looked as cute as a girl next door. However, the next second, the kunai in her hand slipped out of her hand and fell vertically, sticking to the man's pants and hitting the ground.
“Shua——”
The sharp kunai brushed the man's thigh and sank into the ground, the tail trembling. The man's face changed color instantly, as pale as paper.
"Ah, my hand slipped."
Yu Yue still had that gentle and lovely smile. But coupled with her actions just now, this smile suddenly looked like a demon in the man's eyes.
You were supposed to be the sickly little girl from my former employer's family, why don't you play by the rules?
Yu Yue did not pick up the kunai, and the man did not dare to provoke her again - she was really bold. Nothing happened this time, but who knows what will happen next time?
The two of them remained in a stalemate.
The one who finally broke the deadlock was Shisui, who had been watching for a while.
"How can you let a young lady do such rough work? You are the employer."
The young ninja who was speaking had a handsome face and fluffy, slightly curly short hair. His big eyes and round nose gave people a friendly and gentle feeling.
But he is a ninja, and he survived the battlefield.
"Ms. Yu Yue, please go over there and take a rest."
He pointed to the shade of a tree where the supplies they brought were placed. It seemed that the place had been simply cleaned up at some point, and there was even a handkerchief spread on the stone next to it.
"I'll make them tell you all about the stolen goods."
"no problem?"
"Please don't worry."
The boy didn't pat his chest and say something like 'I'll take care of it', but his confidence as a 'professional' was clearly conveyed to Yu Yue.
Ugetsu nodded.
"Then I'll go and rest for a while."
She feels relieved to leave professional matters to professionals.
Seeing the frail employer turn and leave, the boy who had always given people a friendly and refreshing impression turned around, bent down and pulled out the kunai stuck in the ground, and showed a bright but cold smile to the man on the ground who was much larger than him:
"Ms. Yu Yue is actually quite impatient... So, shall we get started?"
The man instantly showed a look of horror.
"Can't let the rain
Miss Yue, thank you for waiting."
The task of interrogating the whereabouts of the goods was handed over to Shisui, and Ugetsu took out a small notebook and began to calculate the expenses.
The goods she recovered were quite valuable - if they were not valuable, her missing father would not have specially hired ninjas to escort them.
It was a pity that they had decided to find a ninja, but they found a wandering ninja to save money, and ended up losing both their money and their lives because of this momentary desire for cheapness. If she hadn't come through, this little girl named Yu Yue might have died.
Fortunately, she found a regular ninja to catch the man in time, and selling the goods at least gave her some time to breathe. But the debts owed for the store rent, water and electricity, and the debts left by the father before his disappearance were still a huge mountain.
Not to mention the long-term medical expenses she will need to prepare for in the future.
Thousands of words can be summed up in three words: "have to make money."
To make more money.
There was a precedent of an employee who had spared money and ran away with the store's goods, so Yu Yue had no plans to hire ordinary employees for the time being.
Who knows if there are people who might have bad intentions because of my young age?
Having a second life is a good thing, but why can't you give yourself an adult body?
At the very least, a half-adult of sixteen or seventeen years old would be much more convenient than it is now.
It is easy for children to get the sympathy card, but conversely, it is difficult for adults to take their opinions to heart and become equal trading partners.
From this point of view, it is better than hiring ordinary employees.
It would be better to hire ninjas first.
Wait until you have money and capital, and then start training some people of your own.
For example, I could sponsor some half-grown children, so that they can be of use when they are fourteen or fifteen years old... However, this is a long-term development, and it is not something that I, a poor person, can do in the short term.
While Yu Yue was thinking with her little notebook in her arms, Shisui also finished her work.
"I found out that the batch of goods is here."
Uchiha Shisui took out the map and pointed at a mountain not far from them.
They were lucky. These people were greedy and wanted to do a few more business nearby before leaving, so the goods had not been moved. If they were slower, the goods would have been moved along with them.
If it leaves the Fire Nation or is sold, it will be difficult to get it back intact.
Thinking of this, Uchiha Shisui felt a little more admiration for the sick-looking girl in front of him.
Suffering from a strange disease and his father missing - in such circumstances, not only was he not overwhelmed, but he also immediately found a solution and took action to recover the losses.
This is something many adults cannot do.
Just based on this perseverance and determination, Uchiha Shisui is willing to provide her with more help.
Although the mission he accepted was just to 'recover the goods', Shisui actually planned to escort her back to settle the payment and ensure that she could get the money safely before going back to the village to settle the mission.
Anyway, as an Uchiha, the village won’t give him many tasks after the war, so he might as well help this child whom he admires very much.
Rather than doing nothing, Shisui would rather take action and do something to help others.
"I see." Ugetsu nodded, and then asked a question that Uchiha Shisui had never expected, "What about the others?"
"…Others?"
"Yeah, they are so skilled, they definitely can't have just swallowed my goods, right? Didn't you also say that they were planning to do a few more jobs?"
The smile on Uchiha Shisui's face almost disappeared.
"you mean……"
"Of course I have to pay for the damages." Yu Yue said confidently, "Lost work wages, mental damages - my treatment time will be postponed, so I have to pay for the delay?"
The girl counted one, two, three, four on her fingers.
Uchiha Shisui, who had so many projects, even suspected that those wandering ninjas might not be able to pay off the debt even if they sold themselves.
The boy didn't have any sympathy for the wandering ninja, so he let her rest here for a while, and he went to interrogate her again. Not only the goods, but the person was turned upside down, and she even revealed the location of the private money she had hidden when she was a child.
So the two's journey changed from retrieving the goods and calling it a day to collecting the stolen money... and by the way, they also took these wandering ninjas with them to exchange for cash.
Yu Yue had a good idea, but she never expected that the entrance to the gold exchange office would be an RPG-style office.
...in the toilet.
What kind of hobbies do these ninjas have?
It can't be this hidden, right?
Ugetsu looked towards Shisui unconsciously.
Although Ugetsu didn't say anything, Shisui instantly understood her thoughts.
"This is not a ninja 's habit."
Actually, Shisui didn't find it particularly strange at first, but Ugetsu's reaction...he also started to find it strange.
It would be fine if it was a toilet, but why not make an entrance on the outer wall, but instead make an entrance inside the toilet?
Could it be that the boss of the gold exchange really has some special hobby?
Putting oneself in his shoes, the originally high-end and mysterious boss of the gold exchange suddenly couldn't bear to look at him anymore.
"It doesn't matter. With so many people in the world, it's inevitable that there will be some mutations."
It was Yu Yue who spoke first to comfort him.
"As long as he can get paid, it doesn't matter if he likes to wear his underwear outside or has a cross-dressing fetish."
It’s not shameful to have quirks.
Especially when he is Party A.
I'm just going to the bathroom, and I don't have to cater to his quirks, so it's not a big problem.
Yu Yue convinced herself in a second.
"Let's go, the sooner we go the sooner we can return."
Although it is built in a strange place, the business capabilities of the gold exchange are still very reliable.
Even though there were only two children, the bald person in charge had no problem with anything. He took out a booklet and checked the list. After confirming the identities of the three people, he readily locked them in the cabinet and took out the corresponding reward to "exchange money for goods".
Even though the combined benefits of the three of them were only that of a D-rank mission (according to Shisui), it was better than nothing.
Unexpected money, no matter how little it is, is pure profit.
According to modern people's habits, the next thing to do after getting the money is to have a good meal to celebrate.
So Ugetsu patted Shisui's shoulder generously and puffed out his chest.
"Let's find a restaurant. I'll treat you!"
Shisui's service along the way can be called the Sebastian of the ninja world, and he fully let Ugetsu experience the joy of 'the client is happy, and the client is always happy'.
Of course, Yu Yue has to return the favor - companies and bosses that only know how to exploit people have no future.
So now is the time to show your side as a 'generous boss' and let people know that they can enjoy a good life if they follow you.
After walking along the street for a while, the two walked into a small roadside restaurant.
It's one of those family restaurants that has a little bit of everything.
Shisui was not picky. Instead, as soon as he entered the door, he busied himself wiping the table and serving the dishes, taking good care of the people.
But then again…
This combination of fried dumplings and rice really looks strange no matter when you look at it.
"Would you like some fried dumplings too?"
Shisui asked immediately after noticing his employer's movements for the first time.
"No."
Ugetsu shook her head.
"But don't you think the combination of fried dumplings and rice is weird?" She has always thought this combination is weird. I didn't expect to encounter it again in the second round.
"What's strange about that?"
"Aren't fried dumplings and rice both staple foods?"
“ Are fried dumplings also a staple food?”
——When Ugetsu heard Shisui's question, he knew that the topic could not be continued.
After all, she couldn't prove that fried dumplings were not a staple food.
Never mind, as long as you are happy.jpg
As a generous boss, she fully respects the personal preferences of future employees.
Not to mention fried dumplings with rice, even noodles with rice, rice with rice, so what? It's enough to work hard for her.
"Then let's change the subject."
Yu Yue suddenly became serious.
"Would you consider a job with five insurances and one fund, monthly salary, 13th salary at the end of the year or project bonus?"!
