Start farming in Konoha

Xu Qiang was relieved to hear this. At least the villagers who followed him were living very well now.

Then Xu Qiang said to Fujino and Chen Baojun, "Why don't you go live with the teacher first?" They didn't have family like Cheng Shui. Now that Konoha Village has become like this, maybe they don't have a house anymore, so Xu Qiang thought of inviting them. Go live in your own home.

Fujino thought for a moment and said, "We don't want to disturb the teacher now, and we also have to check if our house is still there, so we won't go to the teacher's place yet."

Chen Baojun also meant the same thing, and then they separated at the train station.

After leaving the train station, Xu Qiang got on Watanabe's Chakra electric car. It seemed that he was doing well. After all, he could afford such a car and was considered a high-income person in Konoha Village.

Xu Qiang, who was sitting in the back, began to ask what he was most concerned about: "Watanabe, how are my factories doing now?"

Hearing Xu Qiang's words, Watanabe said angrily, "Since you disappeared, because you have no family or relatives, most of your property has been taken away by the village, and they have begun to deny your shares in other ninjas. They have all been annexed by these ninja families. We don’t know how many of them have been annexed by them? The only industry that you have saved now is the weapons shop and breeding farm in Konoha Village, but now they are no longer around. That makes money."

He also had expectations for Xu Qiang in front of him. After all, he had disappeared for 10 years, and those ninjas would definitely not recognize those shares again. It was a blessing to get the most important car factory back from Konoha Village, and he would not ask for more. But of course he has to be concerned about problems with the remaining industries.

"What's going on?" Xu Qiang asked. This was the only industry he had left. Unexpectedly, it stopped making money.

"Sir, now there are more than 10 more farms opened in Konoha Village. Most of them are larger than our farms and more efficient than us. Moreover, fish and meat from the Kingdom of Water are now entering Konoha Village in large quantities, so now The competition among the breeding farms is becoming more and more fierce, and it is becoming more and more difficult to make money. The oil girl family that originally only produced feed has also begun to enter the breeding industry. Their production costs are even lower, so the breeding industry is becoming more and more difficult to do now. .”

After hearing what Watanabe said, Xu Qiang didn't expect that the breeding industry has become so intense now, and even the Aburame family that raises insects has joined in. You must know that they can improve the protein of livestock by raising insects. It is estimated that no one in the breeding industry can compare. It’s time for the Oil Girl family, it looks like the breeding farm is going to let go.

"What's going on with the weapons shop? We know that our products were very popular in the ninja world and now they are not profitable?" Xu Qiang asked, because the weapons shop was Xu Qiang's most profitable business at the time.

At this time, Watanabe smiled bitterly and said to Xu Qiang, "Since you disappeared, Madara-sama has been using troops for many years, and your weapons shop has been prosperous for a while. However, because of this, other ninjas in Konoha Village have also begun to enter the weapons industry, and you have disappeared." Those who are not familiar with us and Konoha's top management will naturally not get orders from the village. Those weapons factories that wait for orders from the village are much better developed than us. The machinery is updated faster and the cost of producing swords is low. So gradually, even the orders of ninjas in the village were taken away by them, and now the weapons shop is just trying to maintain it."

After saying this, Watanabe was very ashamed. After all, Xu Qiang gave the family business to his wife, but neither of them managed it well.

Xu Qiang listened to Watanabe's words and sighed. He knew that Watanabe was not to blame for these things. You must know that he was a farmer. It was just that Xu Qiang had no one he trusted in the ninja world, so he let him take over the management of the weapons shop. Originally, when Xu Qiang was still there, he only had to manage it seriously, and Xu Qiang could control the business direction. He just played the role of a housekeeper. But after Xu Qiang disappeared, it became difficult for him to innovate.

So Xu Qiang comforted Watanabe and said, "It's okay. Since they don't make money, the breeding farms and weapons shops will just close down. Now that I'm back, we can do more profitable industries."

Hearing Xu Qiang's words, Watanabe immediately said in embarrassment, "Sir, the farms and weapons shops employ villagers from Shanxia Village. They have been working for you for 20 years. Now they are all like me, 40-50 years old. , now that you are closing the breeding farms and weapons shops, you are not making them unemployed."

After hearing what Watanabe said, Xu Qiang remembered that the breeding farm employed women from Yamashita Village, and his weapons shop relied on villagers from Yamashita Village. These were his base in Konoha Village, and they really couldn't be discarded. . "Don't worry, I won't close it now. I will wait until the new factory is built before closing it. But you said they are all doing well. Since they are so old, why don't they retire?" Xu Qiang asked strangely road.

Watanabe asked, "Sir, we have all worked all our lives. We will definitely not adapt to something suddenly happening. As for retirement, we have never thought about it. Moreover, prices in Konoha Village are high, life is not easy, and the education of future generations will cost a lot of money." Only then can they become talented people, so everyone is very frugal.”

Xu Qiang has seen a lot of things like this in China in the 21st century, so it's not surprising.
