Because the new furniture hadn't been delivered yet, breakfast couldn't be made, so early in the morning, Uchiha Chen took Kushina towards the Uchiha Clan's Commercial Street.

That's right, it's Commercial Street from the Uchiha Clan.

As one of the two major families that founded the village, Uchiha Clan naturally occupies a large amount of land in the center of the village. Not only that, they have also formed a complete business system of their own as a clan unit.

Not only does it include food, clothing, use, housing, but even weapons do not need to rely on the village. In addition, Uchiha Clan also retains some mineral resources. Although most of them were handed over to the village when the village was built, some were retained after all.

Why do Uchiha Clan ninjas always look superior to those Civilian Ninja and small families? Of course strength plays a big part, but money is also another reason.

No matter where you are, having money in your pocket is the boss, let alone the ninja industry, which is dedicated to earning employment wages.

As long as you have money, you can really do whatever you want. This is also the value of this world. As long as the price is enough, let alone Elite Jonin, even if you let Hokage protect you, it won't be a problem.

Otherwise, how could Gato, that loser, hire Rogue Ninja like Zabuza? Wouldn't it be better to kill him with one knife and take away the money?

Of course this is not possible. Terrorist organizations like Lian Xiao these days are all about the spirit of contract and don't do things like killing people and stealing goods.

Hey, then again, you told me about an organization whose mission is to overthrow Shinobi World and collect Tailed Beast. Why does Tenten make so much money by taking on difficult tasks? For whom?

You don't want to buy any high-tech weapons, and there is no big eater like Luffy in the organization, who will eat up all the working capital after eating it twice.

Sure enough, is it all just to buy Explosive Tag for sister Konan?

Um... that's a bit far.

In short, Uchiha Clan is like a village within a village. Not only does it not rely much on Konoha, but most of Jonin will not go out to take care of students. They usually produce and sell directly to Police Force.

So who can bear this? You say that you are a big-ass village, but you still imitate other people's regional ethnic autonomy, and some "Uchiha Independence" elements pop up from time to time. Let alone Third Hokage, even if Uchiha Chen is Hokage, he cannot tolerate this happening.

Therefore, in his opinion, Uchiha Clan is a broken ship and does not change the pill sooner or later.

But this made it difficult for him, a member of the Uchiha Clan tribe, to be trapped in it, especially since he walked into Commercial Street with Little Fox and received a warm welcome.

Damn it, what is going on?

Uchiha Chen said he was very confused. When he came here before, he was not so popular.

But what can I say, even though he experienced confusion twice in just one morning, he still liked this feeling.

No matter where he went, he was always greeted by the aisles. Various vegetable vendors Uchiha Clan stuffed vegetables and eggs into his hands. Farther away, there was a fat aunt who wanted to give him a big watermelon.

This aunt is so enthusiastic, but if you can't squeeze in, you don't have to... throw it away!

Judging from her movements, Uchiha Chen even vaguely recognized the gesture of throwing Shuriken. It seems that this aunt was also a ninja before.

So he hurriedly pulled Kushina and struggled forward. After all, the death method of "being smashed to death by a watermelon" would be disgraceful if the news spread.

After the two finally got rid of the pursuit of more than a dozen people, they were both out of breath.

"Chen, your popularity is even higher than before in school." Kushina straightened the wrinkled clothes and then smiled.

This was not the first time she had encountered this kind of scene, but the Ninja Academy fan group had not been so exaggerated before.

And from the words of ordinary Uchiha Clan clan members, she could still hear a strong sense of pride. She even knew exactly when Uchiha Chen opened his eyes and which famous ninja he had defeated.

Although these were all publicized by the village, even Kushina couldn't write them all down.

Uchiha Chen thought about it for a while, it should be because of the batch of Uchiha Ninja who responded.

When he first made great achievements in Land of Rain, he did not receive so much popularity when he returned to the clan. At that time, not many people believed in his strength, but this time those Uchiha Clan supporting ninjas saw it with their own eyes, and they would naturally come back to brag about it.

In fact, it was not just the reason he thought. The great achievement three years ago was not that sensational. On the one hand, many people did not believe it, and on the other hand, the publicity period was too short.

But as Uchiha Chen's achievements have grown bigger and bigger, and after the village's deliberate publicity in the past three years, and the news about the ninjas who have returned from the battlefield, the Uchiha Clan ninjas who are isolated in the village cannot help but not believe it.

More importantly, under the leadership of the current clan leader Uchiha Yama, Daimyo's Capital and the Suna Ninja did not achieve much success in the fight, but also suffered a lot of losses. Although the clan members did not say it on their lips, they seemed to be complaining in their hearts.

One is a twelve-year-old genius who has made great achievements in two battlefields, making enemy ninjas frightened; the other has been the leader of the clan for twenty years, but has not made many achievements and is getting older.

Normal people know which one is the hope of the clan, right?

Of course, this is the view of the middle and lower class ninjas and ordinary people in the Uchiha Clan, and it is essentially useless.

Because they neither have much strength nor do they hold real power. To put it bluntly, they are keyboard warriors who like to cling to strong people like weeds on the ground.

But no matter what, the existence of Uchiha Chen caused some waves in the stagnant water of the Uchiha Clan.

When Uchiha Chen took Kushina around, Little Fox was naturally eye-opening.

As mentioned before, Uchiha Clan is a village of its own, so outsiders rarely come here to buy things. In addition, Uchiha Chen lives outside Clan Grounds, and Kushina has actually not been to Commercial Street a few times.

But even she couldn't bear it. After all, wherever she went, she had to face the strange looks from the Uchiha Clan tribe.

Uchiha Chen had never discovered that the clan was so xenophobic before.

When passing by a cake-cutting stall, Kushina suddenly showed a wary look.

"What's wrong?" Uchiha Chen asked in confusion.

"That... seller of cut cakes." Kushina pointed to the other party in a low voice.

"Two years ago, Nonō and I came here to go shopping and bought some of their cut cakes.

I asked for a small amount, but he ended up cutting it so big. "Kushina compared it with his hands.

Basically, she wanted to buy some billiard ball-sized cut cakes to try, but the other party cut them as big as a basketball.

"At that time, we had promised one tael, but he finally asked me for 500 taels. He also said that if you cut this thing off, it would be useless. You must buy it. Otherwise, let the people from Police Force come!"

Kushina is a little angry.

"..."

Uchiha Chen is also a little speechless. It seems that Uchiha Clan is not only xenophobic but also forcefully buys and sells.

The only thing that made him curious was whether this guy also had a mutton skewers accent?

This is really a mystery.
