Chapter 1822 Preparations
After more than a year of development, remarkable achievements have been made. Although the family has not yet returned to its former glory, its reputation among the villagers has changed a lot.
This made Fugaku Uchiha extremely happy, but he did not forget who had brought him all of this; he always remembered the kindness of the wind-stealer.
The Uzumaki clan, on the other hand, was thriving in Konoha.
To say they are at their zenith would be too arrogant, but they are definitely a force that is rising strongly.
After the Uzumaki clan secured the cooperation contract from the Land of Rain, they had no further conflicts with the local clans.
Therefore, there is no competition, the pressure is very low, and Youhong is also a steady person who always lets the family develop slowly and not take too big a step.
So it doesn't stand out in the village, but it's actually developing very well.
Now we are just waiting for Ryosuke Uzumaki, who is studying in the Land of Whirlpools, to return and bring back new knowledge so that our family can rise to a higher level.
The Uzumaki clan knew they had joined Konoha Village halfway through their lives, so they kept a very low profile in everything they did.
They will not compete with other families in the village at all.
We always discuss things together.
Although they have gained some influence in the village, they rarely speak out and tend to adopt a conservative approach to development.
This is also the method that Youhong is best at.
Although they don't show off, the family is developing very well. While they may not have the deep foundation of other families, they are not far behind.
Yuhong is hoping that Ryosuke can come back soon. There are only two years left on the deadline, and he can hold on.
When Ryosuke returned and inherited the position of clan leader, he moved directly to live in the Cloud Clan's territory.
Qu Feng had already prepared a house for him.
……
The next morning, Konoha Village was bustling with activity.
A large number of ninjas began to move around.
All of this is in preparation for the upcoming construction work. Although construction did not officially start today, we can still deal with the surrounding trees, rocks, and the like.
Hiruzen Sarutobi, leading a squad of Earth Release ninjas, began operating outside Konoha Village.
"You all need to be very careful, or you'll find some big rocks or obstacles after construction starts, or don't blame me for punishing you!"
"Yes, Lord Hiruzen!"
Hiruzen's intimidation is unparalleled; he is absolutely the undisputed leader in the construction team.
However, he was overwhelmed and couldn't handle everything on his own; if he could manage things on one side, then no one could deal with the railway track laying issue.
Ultimately, he decided to hand over the railway track project to his son, Sarutobi Shinnosuke.
As the future head of the Sarutobi clan, Shinnosuke has been trained by Hiruzen since childhood.
The younger son, Asuma, was mostly raised in a free-range manner, but he didn't develop a mischievous personality. Instead, he became quite skilled in ninjutsu.
However, he lacked the composure of his older brother Shinnosuke, so Hiruzen rarely assigned missions to Asuma.
At this time, Shinnosuke had already led another group of earth-style ninjas from Konoha Village, as well as some experienced ninjas from the construction team, to begin clearing the route from Konoha Village to the border of the Land of Fire.
We need to test the route at least once before we can talk about laying the cables.
"Asuma, are you really coming with me? You're just a fire-style ninja, you can't be of much help, don't make things worse."
"You'd be better off spending that time with your girlfriend."
Asuma was very frustrated by his elder brother's distrust: "Brother, why don't you and Father believe me?"
Shinnosuke shook his head: "It's not that I don't trust you, it's just that you're not good at Earth Release, so there's no point in you going. Fire Release won't be of any help either."
Asma thought he should help his older brother out as much as he could, but the other man looked down on him.
This triggered Asuma's rebellious spirit: "I don't care, I'm going with you today!"
Shinnosuke had no choice but to let his younger brother go with him.
"Alright, if you get bored later, let me know before you leave. Don't sneak away."
Amado was speechless, wondering what kind of person he was in his elder brother's eyes!
"Okay, okay! As long as you take me there, anything is negotiable!"
Shinnosuke had no choice but to wave and tell him to hurry up and catch up.
And so, both teams began their respective preliminary preparations, with the official start of work expected to take two to three days.
Hiruzen dared to entrust the task of laying railway tracks to Shinnosuke because there were veterans in the team who had previously worked on laying railway tracks in the Land of Earth.
Hiruzen instructed Shinnosuke to ask him anything he didn't understand, since this was a major plan for Konoha.
It took two years to prepare to open up a route. If he ruins it, the Sarutobi clan will be punished!
Even so, Hiruzen still wanted his son to gain some experience. Although he looked young, he had lived for so many years and his mentality had aged.
I've been busy all my life and I'm feeling a bit tired. My son is all grown up now, and it's really not right for me to still be out there making a living.
Shinnosuke always helps him out and solves many problems.
Only Asma's disobedient youngest son said that seventy years old is the perfect age to make a name for himself and let him build another foundation for his business.
Hiruzen was so angry he was blowing his beard and glaring.
Compared to the descendants of Danzo, Kagami, and Koharu, his youngest son was truly insensible.
Fortunately, his eldest son is usable, otherwise he would be in real trouble.
Hiruzen always comforted himself, saying that Asuma was still in his rebellious phase and would be fine in time.
He hoped that was really the case, and that Asma would mature in a few years.
-
"Brother, I forgot to ask you yesterday. I heard you brought back a family from outside? What's going on?"
At the breakfast table, Minato suddenly remembered this matter.
"Well, that's what happened."
Since everyone was here, he decided to tell them all to avoid having to ask them one by one later.
After everyone understood the cause and effect, they were all somewhat incredulous.
"Brother! You can even mark the next life of the dead! Isn't that terrifying?"
"That's right, but can it awaken their memories of their past lives?"
Qu Feng shook his head: "No, I can only mark the location of their reincarnation, because I placed a crystal in their souls."
The crystal was imbued with the power of time, and Qu Feng didn't yet know how to use it, so he would just use it as is for now.
Who knows, maybe more features will be developed in the future.
"That's great! If something happens to us in the future, our brother can mark us for our next life. At the very least, we can return to Konoha Village and have plenty to eat and drink."
