Phew.

Finally, he was back in the village!

After settling matters in the Land of Fire, Uchiha Nan hurried back to Konoha without stopping.

Having left Konoha just one day after taking office as Hokage, Uchiha Nan was worried someone in the village might try to stir up trouble for him.

To take care of the sisters Fu and Rin, he had even specially hired a carriage.

After all, they were just ordinary people. They had no ability to leap across rooftops or travel by hopping through the trees.

However, Uchiha Nan did not make a grand entrance at the Hokage's office. He planned to head home first, settle Fu and Rin in, and hide his beauties away in a golden house!

Social death was bound to come sooner or later, but one had to remember—if you could hide until the fifteenth, then never die on the first!

Unfortunately, heaven did not grant his wish.

Uchiha Nan had forgotten to change out of his clothes. The Divine Robe he wore was simply too conspicuous, and Uchiha Tomita spotted him immediately.

"Lord Uchiha Nan, you're back?"

Uchiha Tomita looked delighted as he immediately came over to greet him.

"Yeah, I'm back. I'm back."

Uchiha Nan answered, having no intention of lingering here with Uchiha Tomita as he headed straight home.

"What's in the carriage?"

"Gifts, gifts. Gifts the Daimyo gave me!"

"So many?"

"The Daimyo was too enthusiastic. There was nothing I could do!"

Uchiha Nan lowered his head and quickened his pace.

"Hey! You lot over there, why are you so blind? Hurry up and help the Clan Head lead the carriage, and carry the gifts the Daimyo gave him into the Clan Head's home while you're at it."

Uchiha Tomita called out to several young Uchiha men passing by.

How could such trivial matters as leading a carriage and moving things be allowed to waste Uchiha Nan's time?

Uchiha Tomita was also anxious to reconcile the accounts with Uchiha Nan and reasonably put the extra one billion ryo into the clan's books.

One billion ryo was no small sum. Even the clan's professional accountants needed time to falsify the accounts, and all the receipts involved required Uchiha Nan, the Hokage, to stamp them.

"Got it, Lord Tomita!"

"Coming!"

The few cool young men immediately rushed over eagerly. Being able to do something for Uchiha Nan was exactly what they wished for.

They did not even give Uchiha Nan a chance to refuse before grabbing the carriage reins.

Uchiha Nan tightly gripped the reins in his hands and repeatedly waved them off.

But in the eyes of the young men, that was merely a token refusal.

"Clan Head, what gifts did the Daimyo send? The carriage is packed full!"

The thing Uchiha Nan feared most still happened. One of the young men, driven by curiosity, directly pulled open the curtain.

"Ah!"

Fu and Rin clung tightly to each other. Uchiha Nan had instructed them not to speak without his permission. His stern expression had frightened the sisters, leaving them nervous the entire journey. Now, with so many voices suddenly appearing outside, they instinctively pressed closer together.

Gifts?

These were the fucking gifts the Daimyo had sent?

The young Uchiha men's eyes practically popped out of their heads when they saw the twin sisters in the carriage.

Clan Head, you really played wild!

It was over!

Uchiha Nan's heart died. His integrity shattered all over the ground in that instant.

"Clan Head, I..."

Cold sweat poured down Uchiha Tomita's back. Even if someone beat him to death, he never would have imagined that the gifts Uchiha Nan mentioned were this.

Was he going to be silenced?

"What are you staring at? Close the curtain!"

"Get the hell out of here, all of you!"

Uchiha Nan flew into a rage and immediately started driving them away. The young men naturally could not wait to leave this troublesome place, and they all fled at top speed.

"Tomita, you stay."

Uchiha Nan's words were like a demon's whisper, stopping Uchiha Tomita just as he was about to make a quick escape.

"Lord Uchiha Nan, is there anything else?"

"Go prepare a large bed for me. The kind that can sleep three people."

Since things had already come to this, he might as well pursue the thrill to the end. Uchiha Nan decided to go all in, and besides, he had to give Fu and Rin's identities a proper explanation.

As Hokage, every move he made drew attention. He would not be able to keep it hidden for long even if he wanted to.

"Understood, Lord Uchiha Nan!"

Uchiha Tomita inwardly sighed. Uchiha Nan truly deserved to be called a young man—his energy was simply boundless!

He himself had already entered middle age. As for the unspeakable troubles of middle-aged men, there was no need to mention them.

Uchiha Tomita had originally intended to leave right away, but now that Uchiha Nan had stopped him, he decided to take this chance to say what needed to be said and save trouble later.

As Hokage and the Uchiha Clan Head, Uchiha Nan possessed noble blood and already had two bloodline limits. He ought to marry a wife from within the clan.

Only then could their children retain the highest possible bloodline purity, and their talents would naturally be at their best.

So long as Uchiha Nan gave the word, Uchiha Tomita could immediately select a group of young beauties from the clan for him to marry at once!

The clan elders had actually already begun urging him. Those elders with granddaughters were especially eager to make a move. This could not be delayed any longer—when they were Uchiha Nan's age, their children could already call them Dad.

As for the sisters sent by the Daimyo, keeping them as mistresses was no big deal in a great clan. It was hardly uncommon. But becoming the Uchiha Clan Head's wife would probably be rather difficult for them.

"I know, I know."

Uchiha Nan waved his hand, with no intention of arguing with Uchiha Tomita over the matter. Fu and Rin had been unexpected to begin with; if not for the reward from that bizarre task, he would never have accepted them.

But they really were too good!

As for a future wife, he would just go with the flow. As long as she was pretty, that was enough. Uchiha Nan had not thought that far ahead.

Seeing that Uchiha Nan had no objections, Uchiha Tomita went off in relief to prepare a large bed.

After settling Fu and Rin in, Uchiha Nan and Uchiha Tomita returned to the Hokage Building to work. They planned to stamp the approvals for the falsified accounts in advance, as requested by the Land of Fire's Finance Minister, so there would be no trouble later.

"How much?"

"How much do you think?"

"Two billion!"

Uchiha Tomita dropped into his chair with a smack. The extra one billion had already been an unexpected delight, but now the amount had directly doubled again.

"Calm down!"

Uchiha Nan waved his hand, telling Uchiha Tomita not to get so excited. Why did he look like he had never seen the world before?

Only after visiting the Land of Fire's Ministry of Finance did Uchiha Nan realize just how greedy those damned parasites were, and how skilled they were at amassing wealth.

Commercial tax evasion alone could support another Konoha, and that was not even counting the major source of land taxes.

Make money, make money, and make even more money!

Without money, there was no way to develop.

If he wanted to complete the roulette's mission, he had to find every possible way to make money. Relying solely on the Land of Fire's funding would never make the Konoha dream a reality. The requirement of making ninjas from other villages willing to become rogue ninjas just to join Konoha was anything but low.

Konoha had to be turned into America before it could attract countless immigrant ninjas to come running!
