Uchiha Kō returned to the Hokage Building, followed closely by Tsunade. There was an important meeting tonight, and as Uchiha Kō's Tsunade and the director of Konoha Hospital, it was necessary for Tsunade to attend.
"Turn on the light." Uchiha Kō smiled, Hatake Sakumo agreed, then turned on the light and stood next to Uchiha Kō.
Uchiha Kō looked at Tsunade and said, "Wife, sit here." He pointed to the seat closest to him, Anbu Ninja immediately understood and quickly brought over a sofa and placed it there.
Tsunade blushed. "This... isn't this a bit inappropriate? After all, everyone's sitting on chairs."
Uchiha Kō pressed her down onto the sofa and smiled, "There's nothing wrong with it, be good, listen to me."
Under Uchiha Kō's continuous persuasion and gentle words, Tsunade sat down on the sofa.
She's quite gentle! A smile played on her lips as she looked at her husband beside her, who was currently checking the accounts with Nara Rokumei.
Nara Rokumei said, "Lord Hokage, after deducting the one hundred scrolls given to Iwagakure, there are still over nine hundred left, which is estimated to be 460 billion yen in working capital available for allocation."
He checked it again and again, afraid that he had made a mistake in verifying the project. This was Konoha's development fund for the next few decades!
Uchiha Kō smiled. "After the meeting, Konoha will enter an era of rapid development. This period will be very tiring and busy, even requiring us to work around the clock. Lu Ming, can your body handle it?"
"Lord Hokage, rest assured, even though I'm over forty, I'm in my prime. I'll be at the forefront and share your Lord Hokage," Nara Rokumei said with a serious expression.
This matter will be of great significance for generations to come. If done well, the Nara Clan will surely leave a glorious mark on the history of Konoha!
Furthermore, their family status will rise several ranks. Although they can't compare to the Uchiha, Senju, sorry, Hyuga you were this (thumbs up), from now on you'll be this (disdain).
Uchiha Kō nodded. "Let's also call it 'Yunhai, Torifu.' That will make things easier for you. Besides, the Ino-Shika-Cho are all in this together, sharing both glory and loss. With them around, you can go all out."
"The Lord Hokage is absolutely right. I'm sure Torifu and Yunhai will be very excited too." Nara Rokumei was originally a middle-aged man who wanted to live day by day.
With 460 billion taels of silver poured into him, he suddenly felt he shouldn't continue living like this. He wanted to go down in history, and he wanted to lead the Ino-Shika-Cho clan to the pinnacle of the entire Ninja World.
Be one of the key participants in this economic reform and make a great contribution!
Seeing Nara Rokumei's face, so full of selfless devotion, Uchiha Kō smiled. "Good, this situation is good."
Lu Ming wanted fame and fortune (referring to ensuring the people's well-being). Both were ambitious and capable; one was the Hokage's assistant, and the other was the Kage. With their combined efforts, the matter was half accomplished. The rest depended on the various ninja clans.
Tsunade watched the conversation between Uchiha Kō and Nara Rokumei from the side, inwardly praising her husband for being so outstanding. Nara Rokumei, the head of the Nara Clan, was now treating Uchiha Kō with the utmost respect, his eyes filled with longing for the future.
Presumably, even my Great Grandfather and Second Grandfather couldn't do this. This is genuine submission, not submission based on power or a desire to remain subservient.
The Anbu Ninja, under orders from Uchiha Kō, were summoned to a meeting tonight for all clan leaders, civilian representatives, and leaders from hospitals, research institutes, and schools. Oh, no need for hospitals; their top leader is having tea and chatting next to the Hokage.
Anbu Ninja, carrying a teacup on a saucer, bowed his head and looked down at the ground as he offered tea to the Hokage's wife.
After Tsunade accepted the tea, the Anbu Ninja quickly left, not daring to linger. He knew what he should and shouldn't see.
Tsunade sipped her tea, her red lips barely touching the water. Uchiha Kō sat down beside her, lying back naturally on the sofa, his arm around his wife's shoulder.
"Excited, aren't you? Hehe, I'm excited too! So much money is enough to advance Konoha's quality of life and development by a hundred years!" Uchiha Kō's eyes gleamed as he looked towards the door.
Tsunade was about to agree with him, but then Uchiha Kō's hands started to wander and knead her shoulders and thighs, and she couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Watch your step, there are still people here. We have a meeting soon. As the Hokage, you need to be serious!" With that, Tsunade slapped away Uchiha Kō's dog paw.
Uchiha Kō gave an awkward laugh. "Heh heh, it's not my fault for not being able to resist, it's just that my wife is too charming."
Nara Rokumei's ears twitched, but instead of turning to look at Uchiha Kō, he got up and walked towards the door.
Uchiha Kō was a little embarrassed, but he remembered Tsunade's words. He then put his arm around her waist and touched her leg, but didn't do anything else.
Tsunade it was just the two of them in the meeting room, Tsunade didn't say anything more. After all, didn't this just prove how charming she was?
She was in a good mood, partly because Konoha was about to enter an era of rapid development, and partly because Uchiha Kō was still as fond of her as ever.
About an hour later, people started to come in one after another. Uchiha Kō got up and sat back in his seat, then looked serious, as if the lecherous man who had just put his arm around his waist and touched his leg had nothing to do with him.
Tsunade also sat up straight, mindful of her posture. Uchiha Kō was the Hokage, and she was the Hokage's wife, so naturally she couldn't be too casual.
The first one to enter was Senju Hashirama, but his expression was not good. He originally thought that Uchiha Kō was just going to take revenge and teach the Daimyo of the Land of Earth a lesson. He did not expect that Owl would take away three-quarters of the Land of Earth's treasure trove. How could people look at Konoha after that!
Then came Senju Tobirama, who frowned and said, "Brother, let me tell you, don't cause any trouble! Owl's actions are in line with the will of the people of Konoha and will bring huge benefits to the Konoha."
"If you dare to cause trouble, believe me, every clan except the Senju Uchiha will hate you." Senju Tobirama knew very well that everything Uchiha Kō had done was perfectly legitimate.
He is a leader who puts everyone's interests first and brings tangible benefits to everyone.
If the eldest brother doesn't understand the situation, he'll be cutting off everyone's source of income and making enemies of the entire village's ninja clan. To put it bluntly, he'll be implicated in the Konoha history book.
The First Hokage, for the sake of his own face, hindered the development of Konoha; he was incompetent and tyrannical, unworthy of the Hokage!
"Okay, I understand. I'll try my best to keep my mouth shut and not say anything. I'm just a little annoyed. Why do we have to acquire resources through invasion?" Senju Hashirama felt that Uchiha Kō's actions went against his original intention in establishing Konoha.
