Chapter 1843 Deciding the Time
The wind-bringing creatures don't help other countries for no reason.
Moreover, given the magnitude of this event, he naturally had to ask for a price.
However, five hundred million would neither harm the fundamental development of the Land of Whirlpools nor make Arashi feel that it was too casual.
Therefore, it is a very good amount.
"Okay, since you've made up your mind, let's discuss the details. We can start in about two weeks."
"At that time, Konoha will mobilize all its Six Paths level ninjas. Even if they cannot contribute to the mission of moving the island, they can still protect your people."
For example, Minato, Dan, and Jiri are completely ineffective; their specific abilities still depend on Kaze, Hashira, and Tobirama.
Their ninjutsu is well-suited for doing these things.
He was proficient in all five elements of wind, but with Cloud Release: Pearl and Crystal Release: Ice Release already in place, he didn't have the opportunity to use any of the five elements' ninjutsu.
"Okay! When shall we discuss this?"
Qu Feng looked at Lan: "Don't rush, I also need to inform them, it will be tomorrow at the earliest."
"We'll have a meeting tomorrow. After the meeting, you'll be responsible for informing all your citizens within two weeks what's going to happen."
"Then we need to help them stay calm and not panic. Also, the buildings in your village need to be protected. Do you have any ideas?"
Lan nodded: "We can use sealing techniques to seal the exterior of the house so that it cannot collapse."
Since there's a method, there's no need to worry: "Is half a month enough? If not, then a month. Anyway, let's get all the sealing techniques set up in advance."
"Don't let the house you just built collapse in the end, then all that money will have been wasted."
Upon hearing this, Lan immediately promised to get everything sorted out within half a month.
“Okay, I will try my best to keep the island stable, but you need to understand that this will definitely cause a serious earthquake. When that happens, all the people will be moved to open areas.”
"This is what you, as a high-ranking official, are required to do, and I think you should be able to handle it well."
Arashi's management skills in the Land of Whirlpools are quite good. His words and decrees are very convincing, and people believe that he can lead them to a better life.
Therefore, everyone was willing to follow his orders. Lan was also very confident about this matter: "Don't worry, Lord Qufeng. I will make preparations in advance. After we finish discussing it tomorrow, I will immediately send people to carry it out. I will also personally supervise it."
This is a matter he cannot be careless about; both houses and people are extremely precious.
The construction of several villages cost Lan 300 million. If a large area collapses, the losses will be enormous. Fortunately, there is a sealing technique; otherwise, we would definitely have to make some sacrifices.
If Lan were asked to give up these houses in exchange for the country's chance to land on the shore, would he be willing?
I estimate they would be willing. Lan is a person with a long-term vision. Even if the Land of Whirlpools develops well internally, it will always have limitations.
But once we reach the shore, things are different; there are many things we can do.
The people can travel the world, and the Land of Whirlpools can receive fresh blood. These are all very good things. If it really comes down to giving up the house, Arashi will definitely make up his mind immediately.
"Alright, since you're so confident, I'll go back and discuss the specifics of the plan with Lord Hashirama and Tobirama, and also have a meeting tomorrow with all the Six Paths level ninjas we'll be bringing to discuss the safest course of action."
Lan felt no panic or sense of failure. With Qufeng around, Lan felt extremely secure. Moreover, with so many Six Paths level ninjas, it was impossible for him not to feel at ease.
"I understand, Lord Qufeng. I will do as you say."
Qu Feng patted Lan on the shoulder: "When we finally reach the shore, you might actually reap some rewards in your relationship with Xin Yu."
Upon hearing Xinyu's words, Lan's face immediately turned red: "My lord, I just want to build my country well first, and then we can talk about other things."
Knowing that the boy was easily embarrassed, Qu Feng stopped teasing him.
"Haha, you'd better think that way. But it doesn't matter anyway, once we reach the shore, everything will be full of hope."
Lan nodded. Yes, once they reach the shore, the future of the Land of Whirlpools will no longer be confined by the vast ocean.
Nothing is better than having a future.
"Thank you, Lord Tokifu. I know that five hundred million is far from enough to warrant your and the other lords' assistance. I can never repay your kindness to the Land of Whirlpools in this lifetime!"
Lan, being a woman of strong character, immediately knelt down and kowtowed to Qu Feng.
Qu Feng didn't like this kind of etiquette and quickly made him stand up: "You brat, I've watched you grow from a talented boy into an excellent monarch of a country."
"Now that you have troubles, and the Land of Whirlpools also has its limitations, what harm is there in lending you a hand?"
Tofu likes people who are grateful, so that his help won't be in vain, and Lan happens to be someone who understands gratitude.
"Your life has just begun. Take your time and things will get better. Not only will the country be better, but your life will be better too."
Lan naturally knew what "taking the wind" meant, and his face flushed red: "If there's a chance, I won't give it up!"
Qu Feng patted him on the shoulder: "Not bad, that's how a young man should be."
"Alright, I came here just to check on you. I didn't expect you to take on such a big task. I'll have to have a good talk with them about it."
The two-week period is both preparation time for the Land of Whirlpools and for the Wind-Takers.
Although I have the ability to move it, I've never done it before. Moving an island for the first time is no easy task.
"Won't you stay for a meal, sir?"
Qu Feng waved his hand: "I won't eat anymore, but there's something else I need to ask you."
"Sir, please speak."
"How are Ryosuke and the other two doing? Tomohiro mentioned them to me a while ago, asking about their situation, but you haven't sent me any messages, so I don't know the details either."
Upon hearing this, Lan immediately replied, "It was my fault; I should have reported it to the adults."
“Ryosuke and the other two are currently working in the Daimyo’s residence. Arashi mainly assists me in handling all matters, big and small, in the Land of Whirlpools, which is also to cultivate his ability to manage the family.”
"The other two are focused on providing assistance, so that they can better cooperate with Ryosuke."
After listening to the wind, I think it's not bad. The current situation in the Land of Whirlpools shows that Ryosuke has made good progress. Tomohiro is really lucky. In two years, he will be able to bring back a genius.
Ryosuke today is so similar to Arashi back then; they are essentially no different.
