Namikawa Yū said that the village income should be increased and the village income should be more diversified. Everyone agrees with this.
After all, the village's finances are better, which is more beneficial to them.
But the question is, what are Department of Commerce and Department of Transportation used for?
How to make money from this?
"The so-called Department of Commerce is responsible for foreign trade and management of Village-run Enterprises."
Namikawa Yū opened his mouth to explain.
Foreign trade? Village-run Enterprises?
"Foreign trade is easy to talk about, but Village-run Enterprises, what is this?"
Utatane Koharu looked hesitant. "Are we going to start doing business?"
"Why not?"
Namikawa Yū spoke softly, "There are a lot of residents in the village, and there are a lot of daily supplies."
"This is a ready market. We founded Village-run Enterprises. As long as the quality is not too bad, we can achieve good results immediately."
Seriously speaking, the consumption potential in Konoha is quite large.
Although the entire Konoha only has a few hundred thousand people, which is equivalent to an ordinary city in a previous life, these people are all high-end people with high consumption power.
Because those who can live within Konoha are either from the ninja clan, or are relatives of ninjas.
In this era, ninjas are considered a high-end group.
Even if it is just an ordinary Genin, the rewards it earns for completing daily tasks are quite a lot. Compared with ordinary people, all of them are rich people.
Even simply serving these people is enough to support a large number of companies.
What's even better is that Namikawa Yū himself is the Hokage at this moment, which represents the Konoha orthodoxy.
Once he gave the order, no one else could compete with him.
After all, as Hokage, as long as Namikawa Yū gives an order, all companies in this Konoha must obey.
This can no longer be regarded as being a referee and a player at the same time, but simply the organizer has personally left the field. Who can play with him?
After all, it is impossible for the government to personally establish a monopoly without making money.
Of course, Namikawa Yū is not prepared to go too far.
In order to avoid messing up the matter, at the moment, he is only prepared to take back those industries with the highest profits and the least technical content.
"Give me my orders."
He immediately ordered, "Establish Konoha Tobacco, Konoha Entertainment, Konoha Grain Group."
"From today on, except for the tobacco produced by Konoha Tobacco, all tobacco sold by other companies is illegal and will be legally confiscated immediately once discovered."
What?
Can you still play like this?
Listening to Namikawa Yū's words, everyone present was stunned.
While opening a tobacco factory and selling tobacco, he declared all other tobacco products illegal and prohibited their sale within Konoha.
How can we still do business like this?
"This... seems to be really profitable."
Torifu Akimichi and Mitokado Homura looked at each other. At this moment, they really felt like they could make money.
The ninja profession is under a lot of pressure.
Because they perform missions for a long time, many ninjas have their own way of venting stress.
Tobacco is undoubtedly a good choice.
Therefore, within Konoha Ninja, there are quite a few ninjas who can smoke.
Later, Hiruzen Sarutobi's son, Asuma Sarutobi, whose head was worth thirty million taels, was a big smoker.
If you can get all the money spent by these people, it would be a good scene to think about.
"Where is Konoha Entertainment?"
Utatane Koharu then asked, "What is this for?"
"The name of the company is Konoha Entertainment, so naturally it is an entertainment venue."
Namikawa Yū spoke calmly, with a matter-of-fact expression. "From today on, except for the casinos officially opened by us Konoha, all other private casinos and romantic venues are illegal."
Sure enough, it's still the same way.
Everyone present immediately understood and no longer doubted Namikawa Yū's words at this moment.
We've already been playing this way, and if we still can't make any money, it's really unjustifiable.
Both tobacco and casinos are typical high-profit, low-tech industries.
The official monopoly of these two industries will not cause any harm. On the contrary, it will make the entire industry more standardized.
As for the final Konoha grain industry, it does not engage in monopoly, but simply purchases and reserves grain.
This is a subconscious action by Namikawa Yū to ensure food security.
"Koharu-senpai."
After completing the explanation, Namikawa Yū looked at Utatane Koharu in front of him. "You are in charge of the newly established Department of Commerce gate."
"Mr. Danzo will be your deputy."
The establishment of Department of Commerce and Village-run Enterprises will, not surprisingly, touch the cake of many people.
But it doesn't matter.
The combination of Utatane Koharu and Shimura Danzō is enough to handle everything.
If there are people who don't know what is good and what is good, Danzo can also show those guys what cruelty is.
"Send letter to Daimyo."
Namikawa Yū continued, "Land of Fire There are many gangsters making trouble everywhere. We, Konoha, are willing to help Daimyo suppress the gangsters for free and guard the security of Land of Fire's territory."
"Ah, is it free?"
Torifu Akimichi is a little confused.
Shinobi World War Although it has stopped for a while, the internal affairs of the countries are not all peaceful.
The public security in this era was not very good, and bandits often made trouble in various places.
This was originally the business scope of ninjas.
It is precisely because bandits are causing trouble everywhere that so many merchants and nobles hire ninjas and pay them generous rewards.
Occasionally, people would hire ninjas to clear out gangsters, but often after a wave of killings, new gangsters would cause trouble after a while.
And now, Namikawa Yū is going to fight bandits for free?
For Konoha, this seems to be a complete loss-making transaction.
Looking at Namikawa Yū, everyone said a few words of advice, but seeing that Namikawa Yū was resolute, they didn't say much.
Finally, this matter was handed over to the Uchiha Clan by Namikawa Yū.
This is also the reason why people around me have no opinions.
Since there is no need for them to contribute anyway, there is no need to say anything more.
After this day, changes within Konoha occurred rapidly.
Residents living in Konoha found that all the large and small casinos and romantic places on the roadside streets had disappeared, and were replaced by government-run casinos with gorgeous decorations that looked very serious.
These casinos are all officially operated by Konoha, and you can enjoy the official guarantee of Konoha when you spend money in them. No one will dare to default on their bills.
In stores across the country, all the cigarettes of various brands have disappeared, leaving only a few newly launched Konoha brand cigarettes.
This change has left many people secretly surprised.
But for most, this change will have little impact.
After all, cigarettes have not disappeared, they have just changed a few brands. In order to worry about the acceptance of villagers, the corresponding prices have even been reduced a lot.
