Chapter 89 Orochimaru's Enlightenment
Jiraiya began the painful yet joyful period of writing manuscripts.
Sarutobi Biwako is also very satisfied with this job which is equivalent to a second spring in life after retirement.
Rather than staying at home every day, it is more enjoyable to go out and make use of your spare time and feel the sense of accomplishment of being needed by others.
After all, the old man has gone to work, so she can’t fall behind, right?
And Miss Yu Yue said so when she invited her.
This is a job that only you, who were once extremely brilliant and now have extraordinary temperament, can do.
Oops, oh, this makes me feel embarrassed.
——But after hearing such nice words, who can not be moved?
Anyway, I just need to keep an eye on little Jiraiya, and it won't interfere with my other work.
Everyone was very satisfied.
Only Jiraiya almost shed tears of sadness.
However, he could not say anything and could only swallow his bitter tears.
Otherwise, would he point at his master's wife and say, "This is not a beauty at all"?
That would be a mixed doubles match between the master and his wife.
He is so old and still being chased and beaten. Where is his face?
I can only write with tears in my eyes.
Fortunately, only (the next part) is left, and he will be relieved after finishing it!
——That is of course impossible.
"Young Heroes" is just a test work.
Although due to various coincidences, it became famous all over the world, that does not change the original intention that it was just a test work.
Since it has been proven that this path is feasible and can bring in a steady stream of income, Yu Yue will of course continue on this path.
Not only that, the road needs to be further widened.
Animation, movies, radio dramas, offline activities and peripherals...
None of them can be left behind.
Those are all cash cows.
But for other groups, it's not so great.
Strictly speaking, Yuyue Store has no 100% comparable competitor. After all, the things Yuyue makes are all new things that did not exist in the world before.
Just looking at this sales volume and this popularity, who wouldn’t be excited?
Whether it’s the previous hero egg dream pack, or the adjustable seats at the back and the “Young Heroes”, every one of them is a huge hit.
If there is one thing that can be in oneself...
It’s not that no one is following Yu Yue’s example to promote products.
To put it bluntly, the hero eggs are just a set of little human toys.
A dream bag is just a bunch of things that can be put together... a more advanced version of building blocks.
Who wouldn’t?
However, no matter what others do, it is like a drop in the ocean. Not to mention a splash, even a little ripple would be good.
Of course, not all of them cannot be sold, but the ones that sell well are just enough to "break even".
There are also those who do not believe in it and want to "replicate" the characteristics of Yu Yue.
But the first problem they have to face is that several large ninja villages have cooperative relationships with Yu Yue.
Even things like dream bags and adjustable seats are simply products produced by the Sand Village. Do you want to hire ninjas to steal the secret recipe?
This is not funny.
Of course, it’s not that no one is willing to take this job.
But they are basically from small ninja villages or rebellious ninjas from the wandering ninja villages.
It's okay to let them rob, kill and burn.
Going to the five major ninja villages to cause trouble is really not good enough.
There were even some people who refused to give up and sent people to the ninja village to steal the blueprints many times, which also attracted the ideas of several ninja villages -
After all, there are indeed many people who are not afraid of death and dare to charge into the ninja village, but it is not normal no matter how you think about it if they continue to rush forward.
As the main manufacturer, the Sand Village felt something was not right and quickly dispatched personnel to investigate.
It is no exaggeration to say that Miss Ugetsu's business is now much more important than the ordinary secrets of the Sand Village.
After all, the secrets of Sand Village only involve one or two ninja villages, or some bloodline limit family. But Miss Ugetsu's business is the key to whether Sand Village can prosper.
In addition, there are so many "shameless little goblins" (referring to other ninja villages) who are now targeting Miss Ugetsu.
If they fail here, they cannot lose their status as "chief partner".
As a result of the investigation, it was discovered that someone wanted to steal the drawings.
Moreover, there are many hidden "outlaws" near his own ninja village - how can he tolerate this?
Of course not.
So the ninja village that discovered the problem started a carpet cleanup on the spot.
All the evil forces that could be found around were cleared out.
For a while, the trade routes were very smooth.
Some small countries or city-states sandwiched between big countries also benefited.
Many people even sent thank-you letters to the Ninja Village.
Thank them for their help.
Several ninja villages that participated in the operation: ...Ah, this is really unexpected.
But let’s be honest, it feels good to be thanked and to be on the side of justice.
And after the cleaning, even the number of merchants moving around increased.
The more merchants there are, the more goods there are.
Aren’t new hero eggs and dream packs coming soon?
After replenishing sufficient manpower, several production rooms behind Orochimaru were finally put into use.
The production of hero eggs from the Iwagakure Village and the Kumogakure Village also officially began.
Of course, businessmen from these two countries would not miss this good opportunity, so they produced hero eggs and dream bags.
A new sales peak has been reignited.
Especially those handicraft masters who are already keen on dream bags.
Some people even shouted "Great, this is a new trend" and rushed in waving money to buy ten or eight bags.
The dream bags of the past are certainly good, but this is the new terroir.
For many people who will never leave their own country in their entire lives, this is really the time when they can get closest to the customs and practices of other countries.
Plus, he's a ninja from the Iwagakure Village and the Kumogakure Village.
Locals will also follow the principle of "matching" and buy a dream package with the characteristics of the corresponding country to piece together the background.
When the two are combined, the effect of 1+1>2 is achieved.
The sales of both products have reached new heights.
In addition to teenagers and adults, many people buy it as a gift for their children.
For example, the Tsuchikage simply bought one for his granddaughter Kurotsuchi, and one for Deidara, who had been scheduled to be his student.
As children grow older, we need to find something to attract their attention.
Otherwise, his old waist wouldn't be able to withstand the tossing and turning of two naughty monkeys.
——The Tsuchikage Ōnoki, who had sprained his back for the third time because of the two of them, sighed.
After all, I'm old and can't do it anymore.
Let Miss Yu Yue's products consume their endless energy.
As for whether there will be a fight...
Children's problems should be solved by children. How can adults intervene?
Anyway, they would stop playing when they were tired. And they could also let the adults have some free time because of sleeping.
Hour.
Looking at the two children who fell asleep in the "you grab my hair and I bite your hand" position after being tired of fighting, and the dream bag fragments and hero eggs with missing limbs scattered all over the ground around them.
The Tsuchikage sighed and closed the door of the room.
Fortunately, this destructive power was only vented on the toys.
If it were a human... that would be unimaginable.
Really.
They are obviously of similar age, and Chi Tu is very sensible and quiet. Why can't these two take a minute to relax?
Fortunately, they have these things designed by Miss Yu Yue that can help them vent their energy.
That's great.
Similar situations also occur in families in other ninja villages.
Just like last time, the end of World War III and after the end of World War III was a new round of neonatal outbreak.
There are far more children born during this period than in the previous years (the war period). And the children born at this time are just two or three years old, which is a period of vigorous energy.
Dream bags and hero eggs, which can be played by children as young as two or three years old, are naturally very popular.
Children have a place to vent their energy and parents can relax.
One or two pairs aren't enough?
It doesn’t matter, eight or ten sets will do, right?
It doesn’t matter if it’s broken, you can just fix it.
This is the benefit of the dream bag. As long as it is from the same set, the accessories are from the same series. It doesn’t matter if it is broken or lost, you can just buy a new one to replace it.
The excess can be piled up in other places.
If the Land of Earth doesn’t like it, then Konoha’s is okay, right?
There are many different combinations, there is always one you like.
Yu Yue was even surprised when she saw the financial statements - although she knew that when hero eggs and dream packs are newly released, there will always be a wave of hot buying.
But this time it's too much, isn't it? She didn't do any activities...
I originally wanted to take this opportunity to organize a one-day trip to the Hidden Rock Village and the Hidden Cloud Village, but I was too busy to coordinate, so I gave up for the time being.
As a result, this sales was even smoother than before.
This requires several copies, right?
Could it be that the characteristics of Iwagakure and Kumogakure have some hidden easter eggs or unknown places to stimulate consumption?
Ugetsu knocked on the table.
I still made note of this matter.
I will study them and other dreams later when I have time.
What is the difference between the packages?
"Ms. Ugetsu."
At this moment, Uchiha Shisui knocked on the door and walked in.
He was holding a tray with one hand, on which was placed medicine that was emitting white smoke. When he saw Yu Yue looking at him, he smiled and said:
"Your medicine is ready."
When it comes to medicine, Yu Yue's face falls.
That's really hard to drink.
Even the surprising sales couldn't save it.
In the new year, Yu Yue still hasn't said goodbye to the medicine that is so bitter that it makes people doubt life.
"I doubt if I ever face a life-threatening situation."
After drinking the medicine in one gulp with amazing willpower, Yu Yue took the candy handed to her by the curly-haired boy, put it in her mouth, and mumbled the second half of the sentence.
"That must have been caused by suffering."
"How could that be?"
Uchiha Shisui handed over the fruit tea again.
"You will live a long life."
You deserve to live a hundred years longer than anyone else in this world.
As the ninja closest to Ugetsu.
Uchiha Shisui considered himself to be the person who could see the changes in ninjas and ninja villages most clearly.
Even if the war was over, there would still be a lot of friction between the ninja villages.
And those sadness and hatred will remain in people's hearts for a long time and become a pain in the heart.
But Miss Yu Yue resolved all of these with her magical products and methods.
In his opinion.
It's no exaggeration to say that Miss Ugetsu's 'business' has changed the ninja.
"…I'll lend you my blessing."
Although I always feel something is weird, it is still a sincere blessing after all.
"Oh, this..."
Yu Yue had just started to speak when there was a polite knock on the door.
"I'm Orochimaru, can I come in?"
"Come in."
Ugetsu stood up to greet him.
Then Orochimaru and Asuma Sarutobi walked in together.
Let's not talk about Asuma Sarutobi for now...
"What a rare visitor, how come Mr. Orochimaru has time to come today?"
Orochimaru is truly a rare visitor.
Because of his busy schedule, Orochimaru has hardly left his territory in the past few months.
"What's the matter?"
“It’s a problem in the production room.
I think given the current situation, we may need to expand by two more.”
As Orochimaru was speaking, Asuma Sarutobi beside him 'sensibly' handed over his own report.
The above is what he wrote based on Orochimaru's explanation, including the reasons for the need to expand the production room and future plans.
"Also, I have some new ideas that I may need the assistance of Chiyo-sama."
When it comes to research ability, Orochimaru believes that he is not inferior to others.
But his direction is more on biology after all.
Things like mechanics are definitely not within his area of expertise.
Even if he had an idea, he didn't know how to realize it - at least in the short term he would need help from experts in related industries.
But he is already learning, and I believe that if he encounters such problems in the future, he will be able to solve most of them by himself.
Orochimaru is still very confident in this regard.
He just started late, but in terms of talent, he is not inferior to anyone!
"Okay, I'll tell Grandma Chiyo, and then you can find some time to have a meeting and see if it can work out."
Ugetsu nodded, and then was surprised to find that Orochimaru did not just leave after saying that as he had done in the past, but was still standing there.
"…Any other questions?"
This is truly the iron-willed researcher who never comes to visit unless there is something important. What else could have kept him here for?
"I heard Tsunade also made products?"
So that's how it is, you care about your old teammates.
"That's true."
Ugetsu said as he pulled out a box from the drawer.
"This is an anti-wrinkle product that I commissioned Tsunade to develop."
Speaking of what most people care about.
It’s wrinkles after all - although whitening and spot-removing products also have a huge market.
But if you want to see the effect directly, it is still wrinkle removal.
"It's just that Ms. Tsunade left the product and left. I haven't tested it yet."
It's not like Ugetsu hasn't seen Tsunade's behavior before.
——Many people who do research or programming have encountered this situation.
"My product is very good and awesome. There is no need for further explanation. Anyone who uses it will say it is good."
Then I really don’t plan to explain it.
Yu Yue didn't care, it was just a prototype after all.
She plans to find someone to try first.
Products,
Results are everything.
If the effect is good, everything will be fine.
The market for skin care products is so huge. If it can really have the effect that Miss Tsunade described, then she will be a huge cash cow.
But Orochimaru frowned after hearing this.
"That won't do."
Orochimaru looked at Ugetsu with a serious face:
"It's irresponsible to just send a finished product and say it's done."
He was deeply saddened by his old teammate's irresponsible attitude.
"Leave it to me, Miss Ugetsu. Within a month... no, within a week, I will make sure she becomes a qualified employee of Ugetsu Store."
Asuma Sarutobi, who was listening, looked up suddenly:?
It’s bad enough that you have betrayed the old man and Lord Jiraiya, but you even don’t let Lady Tsunade go?
Stop it, Lord Orochimaru.
Do you remember that you are a ninja?
You are one of the Three Ninjas of Konoha, the most important pillar besides the Kage.
Asuma Sarutobi was truly stunned.
He had thought that no matter what happened in Yuyue Store, he would not be surprised, but the scene before him still made him breathless.
What is this?
The three masters and apprentices hold hands, work together and walk together?
But Orochimaru doesn't care whether others expect it or not.
To be honest, he had never been interested in the fighting and killing work of a ninja. He had only been fighting until today because he had to do it in the past.
On the contrary, working for Miss Yu Yue now, brainstorming in the laboratory and production room every day, has made him rediscover his love and joy for work.
He hopes everyone can have the joy of this job.
——Naturally, he couldn't stand the cheating of his 'old teammate'.
You are being irresponsible to yourself and your work!
It would have been fine if she had run away in the past, but now that she's back, how could she still be so careless?
Yu Yue was very moved after hearing this.
I am so touched. Ninja is really ambitious.
"Then I'll leave it to you. Don't be too strict. Miss Tsunade has just joined the company, so it's normal for her to be unfamiliar with some things."
"No, no, no." Orochimaru shook his head. "This is not a question of whether you are new to the job or not, this is a question of attitude."
"Tsunade has let herself go for too long, so it's right to take this opportunity to correct it.
She’s responsible.”
After saying that, he turned around and left in a hurry.
Asuma Sarutobi looked at Ugetsu and then at Orochimaru, but gave up the idea of saying anything and chased after him.
He spoke as if he could really change people's minds just by opening his mouth.
——A-choo!
Tsunade, who had just slumped in the chair for a while, sneezed suddenly.
As a "senior talent", although Tsunade did not get a direct job offer, she still had her own workshop.
To say that Miss Yu Yue employs people is really impolite.
First there was a three-month probation period and assignment - fortunately she had a solid foundation and finally completed the 'prototype' - anti-wrinkle cream.
But after all, for someone who has been free for two years, it is still quite hard to suddenly get back to work.
Especially since it was a laborious research and development job, there were several times when Tsunade had the urge to say, "Why don't you just let me go out and fight."
Good fight.
DuangDuang, just one punch and it's done.
But it's just a thought.
After all, she really didn't want to have anything to do with ninjas or ninja work anymore.
Even without mentioning her hemophobia.
There is no future for being a ninja.
The harder you try, the less hope there is.
No matter what or for whom you work hard, in the end you will just lose your life in vain.
It would be better to have a job like this.
Although it is tiring, at least I can produce good results.
Tsunade reclined the adjustable seat and slid her body down, making herself more comfortable - even though she still had to check on Kushina tomorrow.
But that's tomorrow's business.
Her work is done today!
Should I go out for a drink later, or go back to the dormitory and play the gashapon machine?
Tsunade began to fantasize.
Now that she has officially moved in, she no longer has to play secretly like in the past.
After submitting the work results for this period, it's time to start happy time.
After careful consideration, Tsunade decided to have a drink first, and then go to the lounge to play with a little tipsy happiness.
This means double the happiness!
Just as Tsunade was falling into happy delusion, someone suddenly knocked on the door from outside.
Boom boom boom.
"Come in."
Although she was upset, Tsunade sat up straight in an instant.
But when she saw the familiar figure coming in, she collapsed again instantly.
"Why are you here?"
To be honest, she didn't really welcome this old teammate...
No, it should be said that none of her old teammates welcomed her very much.
Orochimaru didn't care about Tsunade's attitude, he just closed the door and walked in.
"It looks good."
"Not as good as you."
Tsunade had no intention of getting up and just remained in this semi-paralyzed position looking at him.
"Why are you here, busy man? You can't say you have too much free time and come to me to reminisce about the past."
Although Tsunade has only been back for a short time, she still knows how busy and busy Orochimaru is.
There was no way around it. Living in the staff dormitory of Yuyue Store, countless discussions would flood her ears even if she didn't want to.
Whether it is Orochimaru's excellent R&D capabilities or his meticulous attitude towards work.
In short, people are saying good things about him everywhere.
Tsunade was genuinely surprised - she felt like she had heard a lifetime of praise for Orochimaru in that time.
...but that has nothing to do with me.
He and I have completely different work directions and cannot be compared.
Orochimaru smiled slightly:
"I'm sorry, I'm not here to reminisce with you this time."
"Your work efficiency is too poor. There is no progress at all. You only provided a 'finished product' - there is no product description or introduction, nor the R&D process. How can you make others believe it?"
Tsunade:?
"I really can't bear to watch this any longer - so I ask Miss Yu Yue to help you with the 'old mentoring' work."
Tsunade couldn't sit still anymore.
She stood up suddenly: "What?"
You take me???
Orochimaru remained calm, not only that, he also gave her a look of disappointment: "Work, especially R&D work, is not something you can just throw out a product and say you're done."
Tsunade's head was filled with question marks that seemed to be drowning her.
"Don't look so innocent. I've heard from Miss Yu Yue that you haven't reported any progress or written any work reports so far. Considering that you've just joined the company,
It’s normal to do poorly... I will guide you well in the future.”
The more Orochimaru talked, the more he felt that writing a work log and reporting progress was the best thing to do.
Not only can you understand the progress of others.
You can also clarify your thoughts and work direction in the writing process.
This way he knows clearly, and others can also see what was used and how much effort was put into it.
It’s so joyful.
He hopes that everyone can use this efficient and excellent way of working.
Especially people like Tsunade and Jiraiya who are used to being free and easy.
——It’s fine as long as it’s been like this for decades.
But Tsunade is not like that, Tsunade can still be saved.
Whether it is past teammates or current colleagues.
Orochimaru even felt that he needed to save Tsunade and not let her continue to be so decadent and degenerate!
Tsunade: ...
Is this really Orochimaru?
I wonder if someone replaced me with ninjutsu.
But then again, even if it was Yamanaka who could use the 'Mind Turning Technique', no one would have the leisure to use it on Orochimaru just to have more work, right?
What’s the picture???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!
