"Yes! That makes sense. If there's a real risk of them going bankrupt, I'll contact them in advance and buy the mall."

Qu Feng was speechless. That wasn't what he meant at all: "Please don't! Our family already has enough businesses. If you buy the mall, it will be squeezing out the living space of other families."

Qu Feng rarely buys anything directly anymore; otherwise, he would have been able to buy the entire village.

But what good is that? The other families have no way to survive; they're all just working for the wind-collecting tribe.

There will definitely be families that can't stand it, and that's when conflicts will gradually arise.

Qu Feng now controls two schools, several restaurants, a factory on the back hill, and some scattered investments.

Although there are quite a few, there is definitely room for other families to survive, and a very large one at that.

"Fine, whatever you say. I won't buy it. Besides, I was just saying it casually, so don't take it seriously."

"Of course I know that, I was just saying it offhand. Have fun, and please give my regards to your sister-in-law."

Chiri smiled slightly: "Alright, speaking of which, it has been a while since you visited the Uchiha clan."

Qu Feng thought for a moment: "There might be an opportunity, but I haven't had much free time lately."

Chiri didn't mind, nodded, and left.

Haoyuan also planned to leave with Zhili.

Qu Feng didn't stop him, letting the mother and son leave together.

Haoyuan has now taken over the task of educating Shisui and Itachi from his great-grandfather, Shintaro.

Over the course of several months, the relationship between the two boys, Haoyuan, grew closer, but he was still rejected every time he asked to become Haoyuan's apprentice.

But the two little ones still insisted on becoming apprentices, showing no intention of giving up.

Haoyuan also felt exhausted by this.

He really didn't intend to take on any apprentices, but these two little guys kept pestering him, which made him a little tempted.

After all, no one can withstand being sincerely pestered every day.

Once Haoyuan left, the Yunzhong clan quieted down. Everyone else went about their own business, leaving only Naruto and Xinxin watching the fish by the pond in the courtyard.

"Naruto, don't get too close to the pond, or you'll fall in and no one will save you."

He warned from inside the pavilion.

Naruto, however, was unconcerned: "Come on, Uncle will definitely save me, otherwise I'll jump down and try it myself."

"Hey! You little rascal, you're getting cocky now?"

Using the wind, they directly pulled Naruto over from a distance.

Seeing that Naruto was about to get beaten up, Xin Xin quickly moved away from the pool and stood still.

Naruto hovered in the air, looking at Tokifumi with a somewhat bewildered expression.

There was no fear in his eyes, only confusion about how he had gotten there so quickly.

"That was so much fun! Uncle, let's do it again!"

There was really nothing Qu Feng could do about this silly boy.

"What are you doing here! Don't you know you've made a mistake!"

Naruto lowered his head: "I know, but isn't Uncle here for me?"

Having exhausted all other options, Toru put Naruto down: "Alright, go play somewhere else. Don't play near the pond, it's dangerous!"

Naruto could tell that Toru was a little angry, so he didn't continue to tease him. Instead, he nodded repeatedly and agreed, "Understood, Uncle. Don't be angry."

Qu Feng rolled his eyes at him and didn't say anything more, while Naruto ran off indifferently.

Upon seeing this, Kushina, who was inside the house, smiled and sat down in the pavilion.

"Naruto is getting more and more naughty. Is it because you spoil him too much, big brother?"

Toru wanted to explain, but then remembered that he had just said that Hiruzen was spoiling the child too much, which was why Asuma was now rebellious.

"Maybe so. We'll have to use a combination of kindness and strictness in the future, otherwise it won't be good for Naruto to learn from Asuma."

Kushina didn't know what was going on, so Torifu told her about Hiruzen.

This made Kushina frown: "Going to be a bodyguard for a daimyo... isn't that like tearing his father's face off and stomping on it?"

"That's right, thankfully they've been taught a lesson now, otherwise Hiruzen would have had a real headache."

However, Asuma is a rascal. He might just be hiding temporarily, waiting for the day he can break out and then secretly become a bodyguard for the daimyo.

If that day ever comes, Qu Feng will definitely bring him back personally and lock him up in jail to give him a good talking-to.

"However, Naruto shouldn't be that immature. Let's be stricter with him gradually and not forgive everything."

Kushina looked at Torifu with a suspicious gaze: "You said that to yourself, didn't you, brother?"

"You're the one who spoils Naruto the most in this family. You listen to everything he says and give him whatever he wants."

Qu Feng scratched his head somewhat guiltily: "Is...is there?"

"Yes," Kushina answered with absolute certainty.

"Well, I'll change my ways from now on. This kid just knows how to be charming."

Moreover, Toru knew what kind of life Naruto should have been living, so he wanted to make amends.

Didn't I realize I'd gone a bit too far?

Just as the two were discussing being stricter with Naruto, a voice came from outside the door.

"Naruto, I'm here!"

Soon, Neji led Hinata into the courtyard, and upon seeing Torifu, immediately bowed to him.

"Greetings, Lord Torifu and Aunt Kushina."

Kushina was always shocked whenever she heard the word "auntie." She was only twenty-three or twenty-four years old, how could she already be considered an auntie!

But there was no way around it; she couldn't very well let Neji call her "older sister," that would be too beneath her dignity and against the rules.

"Haha, Neji's here. Next time, remember to call her Auntie, not Auntie."

Neji nodded in confusion.

Toru nods to Neji and the other person.

Since the Hiashi and Hizashi brothers promised to let Neji come over to play every Saturday, they have never broken their promise.

Neji and Hinata always arrived at the Cloud Clan's territory on time.

Sometimes they play all day, sometimes half a day. The children get along very well and rarely quarrel.

Neji, as the older brother, always takes Hinata, Naruto, and Xin Xin with him.

When they get tired of playing in the clan's territory, they will run out to play in the village.

Taking the wind, he wasn't worried about Naruto getting lost or being kidnapped.

Even if there are truly reckless individuals, Qu Feng can resolve the situation immediately.

Both the main gate and the interdimensional portal are guarded, so the children absolutely cannot leave. Staying in the village is completely safe, and there is absolutely nothing to worry about.

Naruto has many friends, not just Neji and his friend.

Characters like Ino, Choji, and Shikamaru.

Kiba from the Inuzuka clan and Sakura from the Haruno family are also his good friends.

All I can say is that he has a very wide network of connections.
