Capital of the Land of Grass, Orochimaru disguised themselves as traveling merchants and came to this place regarded as a holy land by Merchant all over the world.
Why do all the Merchants in the world regard this place as a holy place? Because in the eyes of many Merchants, Daimyo of the Land of Grass Chiba Tetsuya is the saint among their Merchants.
From the very beginning, he was a small Ramen Shop boss, and after all the hard work, Shinobi World, which advocates strength, relied on business methods to continuously accumulate capital, build a huge business empire, and even finally completed the leap of status and class, from a commoner to a nation Daimyo.
Such stories, in the eyes of ordinary people, are almost like fairy tales.
But it happens that this is not a fairy tale, but a case that happened in reality.
How can this make those Merchant who are also doing business not yearn for it? Over time, Chiba Tetsuya has become a saint-like existence in the word of mouth of those Merchants, and Capital of the Land of Grass has naturally become a holy place in the eyes of Merchants.
What's more, this is also an important transportation hub connecting the two major countries, the Fire Country and the Earth Country.
"Haha, Boss Chiba, I didn't expect that after so many years, you would reach this point today. Daimyo, one country, is really admirable."
He recalled a statement he heard from Old Man back then, saying that Old Man asked Chiba Tetsuya what his dream was. Chiba Tetsuya replied at that time that his dream was to make Chiba famous by Shinobi World through his own strength.
Now after so many years, he has realized his dream. Looking at the whole world, there is no country that does not have a branch of the Chiba Commerce Association. As long as there is commercial circulation, there is no place where people have not heard of the name Chiba.
"Hey buddy, are you here to do business at Land of Grass too?"
When a young man dressed in Merchant saw Orochimaru standing outside Capital City looking out at the prosperous city in front of him, he immediately became familiar with it.
"Looking at you, you probably don't have much experience. I understand. You must have heard the story of Daimyo Chiba like me, so you came here because of your yearning."
Orochimaru took a look at the person in front of him, and after confirming that there was no Chakra on the other person but just an ordinary Merchant, he replied with a smile.
"Yes, after all, the story of Daimyo Chiba is indeed very inspiring. From an ordinary small vendor, he finally reached the position of Daimyo in a country step by step. Anyone who hears it will be excited and want to see it."
"Hahaha, you are right. I can tell at a glance. My name is Saburo Oda. I am a traveling businessman. I have been in business for three years. I just arrived here a few days ago. What about you, brother?"
As a traveling businessman, Saburo Oda traveled extensively and developed a familiar character. After all, if you are not enthusiastic, no one will buy your things.
"My name is Dalangmaru. I just became Merchant. I just arrived here today. Oda-kun, you came a few days earlier than me, so you should be very familiar with this place."
"That's natural. Mr. Dalangmaru and I hit it off right away. Come on, I'll treat you to dinner. I know a Ramen Shop that tastes particularly good. Speaking of which, Daimyo Chiba also started out as a Ramen."
"Really, then I'm going to have a good taste of it."
Under the leadership of Saburo Oda, Orochimaru came to a relatively deserted street.
It is said to be deserted, but that is only compared to other more popular streets. There are still many pedestrians on this street.
The clothes of these people are also different. They come from the south and go north, Land of Wind, Land of Earth, Land of Fire, and Small Nation from big countries.
Saburo Oda took Orochimaru into a relatively remote and seemingly simple store.
I don't know why, but Orochimaru always feels familiar when looking at Ramen Shop in front of him.
It seems that the original Ramen Shop of Boss Chiba was also so inconspicuous.
"Boss, please order the signature Tonkotsu Ramen!"
Saburo Oda shouted loudly towards the kitchen as soon as he walked into the store.
"Dalangmaru-kun, please sit down. This is the menu. See if there is anything you want to eat. If not, I recommend you try their signature Tonkotsu Ramen. The taste will definitely satisfy you."
Orochimaru did not order food immediately, but looked around to observe the surrounding environment.
There are not many people in the shop, but what is surprising is that many people inside have Chakra. They should all be Ninja, but none of them carry Forehead Protector. I don't know which Shinobi Village it is.
However, there are also some ordinary customers. These Ninja should just come here to eat.
After confirming that there were no problems, Orochimaru started to look at the menu.
"This is it!"
He saw some familiar Ramen names on the menu.
Assorted Ramen, signature Tonkotsu Ramen, Flame-Fried Noodles, Cold Noodles, Char Siu Noodles...
These are all the original dishes of Chiba Ramen Shop!
Orochimaru took a deep breath and said comfortingly.
"It's okay. Boss Chiba probably announced all the recipes after he retired. These Ramens can still be eaten in Ichiraku Ramen."
After comforting himself, Orochimaru spoke.
"Then, give me a copy of Flame-Fried Noodles."
"Okay, one copy of Flame-Fried Noodles and one copy of the signature Tonkotsu Ramen will be here soon!"
A clear voice came from the kitchen.
"Come to Dalangmaru-kun, let's drink some tea first. It's been a long and dusty journey, so you must be tired too."
"Thank you."
"Dalangmaru-kun, what kind of business are you doing? Do you plan to resell specialties, buy some daily necessities, or go bigger and sell some rare treasures?"
"I haven't figured out what kind of business Oda-kun is."
"Me, I just resell some specialties. For example, I bring some specialties from Land of Fire to sell at Land of Wind. After I sell the items, I buy some specialties from Land of Wind and sell them back to Land of Fire to make a little profit."
The two chatted casually, and Orochimaru acted like a newcomer who had just entered the mall.
And Saburo Oda constantly imparted business experience to Orochimaru.
"Ouch~!"
Suddenly Xiaotian put down his cup and said a little embarrassedly.
"What about that, Dalangmaru-kun, I drank too much tea, so I went to take a break. I'm sorry, please wait for me for a moment."
Saying Saburo Oda, he ran towards the toilet. When passing by the bar, he also paid for two bowls of Ramen.
Orochimaru shook his head and continued to drink tea.
"Sir, your Flame-Fried Noodles is here. Alas, where is the guest who ordered Tonkotsu Ramen?"
An ordinary-looking young man came to the table with two bowls of noodles and put them down.
"He went to the toilet."
"That's it. Sir, please use it with ease."
Looking at the steaming fried noodles and smelling the familiar aroma, Orochimaru picked up the chopsticks.
After taking a sip, Orochimaru frowned.
"This smells like this!"
I took two more bites, and the taste was exactly the same as in my memory.
"Orochimaru-kun, how are you? After so many years, my craftsmanship hasn't gotten worse."
