Going Through the Back Door

Some villagers were still dumbfounded as they watched the Police Force carrying more than a dozen large boxes. They started cursing, "They've amassed so much money in just one day! They're practically Konoha Vampire!"

Some female villagers looked at Shouhon Yihan with resentment and said, "Sisters! Everyone remember this Konoha Madman. He's the one who led the fines and conspired with the Third Hokage to create the Konoha Crush Plan. Even if we seal it up with cement, no one is allowed to marry him."

Looking at the lively villagers, Shouhon Yihan spoke again, "I am the deputy head of the Police Force, a loyal subordinate of the Third Hokage. Anyone who dares to disrupt the Beautiful Konoha Plan is going against me."

As the members of the Police Force passed through the main street, the villagers who had been spewing profanities suddenly became respectful and praised Zhang Benyihan, saying, "Minister Zhang, does your Police Force need more members? I also want to work for the Police Force and become your loyal subordinate."

These villagers were also well aware that the current Police Force was a lucrative place; they would be Tenten issuing fines, and each member of the Police Force would have millions in assets.

Another thing is that joining the Police Force means I can fine others on the street without being fined myself, which is a really great thing.

Looking at the villagers praising her, Shouhon Yihan said arrogantly, "If you want to join the Police Force, you need to ask Minister Qingcheng if he agrees, and you also need to get the approval form from the Third Hokage before you are qualified to join the Police Force."

Everyone looked dejected upon hearing this, and they all said, "Life won't be easy from now on. If things continue like this, our whole family will starve."

Then some villagers said, "The current Police Force is always taking advantage of Tenten dealings, but unfortunately, I can't get in."

Looking at the disappointed villagers, Shouhon Yihan said excitedly, "Those requirements are just the formal procedures. Minister Zhang has another method: to go through an informal process."

A red-haired villager asked expectantly, "What's that irregular procedure like?"

The Police Force carrying the boxes all looked bewildered and said in unison, "Is there some kind of illegitimate way to get into the Police Force?"

Seeing this, all the villagers asked expectantly, "Minister Zhang, is there some special way to get into the Police Force?"

Shouhon Yihan looked at the villagers, their curiosity piqued, and said with a serious expression, "That's right, of course, the minister also has special methods, which is to use back channels."

Upon hearing this, all the villagers looked puzzled and asked one after another, "What do you mean by 'opening a back door, 'Minister Zhang? Did you install a back door in your house?"

Looking at the puzzled villagers, Shouhon Yihan solemnly explained, "It means you should bring all your good things to my house, and then I'll take them directly to the Third Hokage. Then, with some difficulty, I'll try to get you a spot in the Police Force. Opportunities are limited, first come, first served."

Upon hearing this, the villagers all gave him a knowing look, but then they started thinking to themselves, "What are those good things? What kind of good things should we give them to get them into the Police Force?"

Then a red-haired ninja said with a serious expression, "So the question is, what makes something good? What do you like, Minister Zhang?"

Upon hearing this, Shouhon Yihan said sternly, "You red-haired idiot, it's not about what I like, it's about what the Third Hokage likes. You should ask him what to give Third Hokage so you can get a chance to pull strings."

Then a long-haired female ninja said with a serious expression, "The Third Hokage often used the Telescope Technique to spy on the women's bathhouse. He must like girls. This condition is too harsh. I still can't accept such a rule. Even if you asked me to be a member of the Police Force, I couldn't do it."

Qingcheng, walking at the back of the group, watched Shouhon Yihan setting off rat poison and thought to himself, "This guy is really too clever. With just a little training, he'll be able to use anything. He even knows how to use the Third Hokage's name to continue making shady money. He could become the future Pot Kage."

Looking at the clueless villagers, Shouhon Yihan said directly, "The Third Hokage likes money and the beautiful Konoha. If you want to join the Police Force, you have to send money to my house. Then I'll take that money to the Third Hokage and get you a Police Force position."

Upon hearing this, the villagers realized what was happening, but when they heard it would cost money, they looked pained and said, "Just how much money do we have to pay to open the back door to the Third Hokage?"

Shouhon Yihan said directly, "Just one quota for the Konoha Beautification Plan, about 50 million Ryo. You can pay with gold. Quotas are limited, first come, first served! The head of the department lives in the backyard of the Police Force. If you come late, you won't have a chance."

The Police Force carrying the boxes all looked surprised and began to discuss among themselves, saying, "So our positions are already worth fifty million Ryo. Luckily, we obeyed and weren't fired by Minister Qingcheng."

Qingcheng looked at the frenzied villagers, some of whom had already gone home to prepare money, waiting to make their way into the Police Force, join its Police Force, and then go out into the streets to make a living.

Qingcheng smiled and said, "Let's continue. We're going to the Hokage Building to hand the money over to the Hokage."

Then the Police Force continued forward. The ten large crates, like real gold and silver, swayed precariously, dazzling the villagers who exclaimed, "The Police Force are truly the best department in the world!"

Another group of villagers said angrily, "They've really turned against the Heavenly Guard! These guys from the Police Force are openly accepting bribes. The Uchiha Clan's Police Force is much more honest."

When Qingcheng arrived at the Hokage Building, he walked straight to the front and said sternly to Zhang Benyihan, "You just overstepped your bounds again. You opened the back door in public without my permission."

Upon hearing this, Shouhon Yihan broke out in a cold sweat and said in a terrified voice, "I'm so sorry, Minister. I overstepped my bounds just now. Please forgive me this time. I won't do it again."

Qingcheng then said with a serious expression, "Remember to hand over the ill-gotten gains to the chief. I need to use this money to build the strongest Police Force."

Upon hearing this, Shouhon Yihan let out another sigh of relief, thinking to herself, "I almost lost my position as deputy minister." Then, she quickly recovered and said with a smile, "Minister, don't worry, I'll definitely push the limits and make sure the security budget is up and running."
