"Specialty?"
Rasa was having trouble following Eiji's logic.
Sunagakure was an extremely impoverished place. What good things could they possibly have to give him?
It was nothing like Konoha, with its vast land, abundant resources, and rich supplies.
As Kazekage, he even had to dig for Gold Dust every day to supplement the village's finances, and they were still running a deficit...

This bastard doesn't want gold, does he?
