This Ninja Is Obviously Not Strong but Really Hard to Kill
Chapter 524: Greed Is The Orginal SinThe Land of Waves.
"Mr. Naoki, that old man Dazna has sent another bridge construction proposal. Would you like to take a look?"
The once fallen and timid, chubby kid, now clad in a suit and exuding the composed aura of a company leader, Naoki, frowned upon hearing this.
"That old guy, wasn't the message I sent last time clear enough? Everyone lives and works peacefully and happily in the Land of Waves. It's not an exaggeration to say that the streets are so safe that you could drop a wallet and not have it stolen, and homes can be left unlocked at night. All of this is thanks to me. Why are they still not satisfied? Do they still want to undertake such a costly endeavor as building a big bridge?"
Towards the end, Naoki seemed very annoyed!
"Now, many companies have openly expressed their support and are willing to contribute financially and physically. We might lose the public's trust if we wait to make a statement. Those guys will start anew, constructing the bridge without us..."
"Heh, it seems some people have forgotten who the true ruler of this country is!" Naoki laughed in anger.
Since taking over the fortune left by his despicable father, through years of development, he has become the 'acknowledged' king of the Land of Waves.
However, he has always walked on thin ice, not indulging in enjoyment and abusing his power and wealth like his father did.
Because he knew, no matter how well he developed the company, 'that person' was the absolute master of the country!He was just a spokesperson, a puppet chosen by 'that person.'
If he disobeyed, with 'that person's' terrifying strength, his life could be taken at any moment, and another puppet would be installed to control the vast wealth.
The armed forces he had developed might be more than enough against ordinary people, but in 'that person's' eyes, they were like ants, not worthy of concern.
Therefore, the Land of Wave's improvement over the years is inseparable from 'that person's' demands.
After all, sharing wealth with the public for a win-win situation was foolish.
But he didn't dare refuse, and as time went on, he saw all the changes in the Land of Waves, 'that person' also proved to him who was right.
The better the quality of life for the people, the more willing they are to spend money, pursuing a higher quality of life, and the more motivated they are to work hard and improve.
This is infinitely wiser than the past when Cardo used to drive people experiencing poverty to work with a whip!
Moreover, as the needs of the people increase, having a monopoly over the entire maritime industry allows them to earn more.
After such capital circulation, the money returned to their hands and generated more wealth, which initially seemed unbelievable to Naoki.
The Land of Waves has fully developed into a state with a solid commercial atmosphere, with various handicrafts, unique products, and industries emerging like bamboo shoots after rain.
Afterward, Naoki's shipping company was responsible for selling all kinds of goods produced within the Land of Waves to various places in the ninja world, then importing multiple raw materials and goods required by the people of the Land of Waves from other countries to sell.
Through such import and export, money began to circulate.
Being an indispensable part of the entire commercial chain and having a monopoly on transportation, the Naoki Shipping Association was making money hand over fist.
It was not even enough to describe their earnings as simply picking up money; it was more like people lining up to throw money into their wallets.
Logically, the living conditions of the people in the Land of Waves are countless times better than when Cardo was in power. It's impossible to find a single beggar throughout the land because here, as long as you're not idling around, you can always find a job to support your family.
Interestingly, as more and more people start doing business, human resources have become an invaluable, precious asset in all industries, making it extremely easy to make money.
If not for 'that person' prohibiting the slave trade, Naoki wanted to buy some enslaved people.
However, it was also based on 'that person's' suggestion that Naoki implement a citizenship system and immigration business.
In this way, while ensuring the interests of the indigenous people, they also gave those outside longing for the rich life in the Land of Waves a chance, further ensuring human resources availability for the country's high-speed development.
The Land of Waves is now thriving, with its people living and working peacefully and happily.
However, once well-fed, humans always harbor some 'naive' thoughts.
Furthermore, some dare to target the Ihosha, which has monopolized the entire transportation industry, encouraged by their audacity.
It's all because the money earned seems too easy, and the profits are too tempting.
There are always those who, blinded by the allure of profit, take risks, even at the risk of their own lives.
And these people dare to argue, trying to claim a share of the pie under the slogan of fair competition.
But they seem to forget one thing: the 'fairness' they see is a scene deliberately created by the Ihosha.
In reality, the entire Land of Waves is still dominated by the words of a single individual!
So, the Ihosha only had to employ minor tactics to make these people suffer a heavy blow, facing harsh setbacks.
But no era is without its wise individuals. Upon realizing their 'foolishness,' they gave up on openly competing with the Ihosha for food and decided to break the Ihosha's monopoly directly.
Thus, they devised a good idea: to use public opinion to stir up some people, with slogans of accelerating national development and openness, aiming to build a super bridge that directly connects the land!
With this bridge, the superior status of the Ihosha would instantly vanish.
Monopoly would become a joke!
Then, everyone would earn more, and not only would the circulation of goods become more convenient, but it would also quickly cover the country's need for human resources—a case of killing several birds with one stone!
This idea benefits the country and its people with many advantages.
But the price would be the sacrifice of the Ihosha!
And under the instigation of those with ulterior motives, the uninformed masses began to believe that the Ihosha was a leech sucking the blood of all the people in the Land of Waves!
After all, the annual transportation fees are not a small expense, and the Ihosha dictates everything about buying and selling.
Why should this be?
Yes, why indeed!
The tremendous wealth once displayed by the Ihosha for national construction to lend to the public for business development has all been selectively forgotten by them.
But they should never forget that just because a tiger doesn't eat people anymore doesn't mean it has lost its sharp claws and teeth!
