Chapter 1802 Negotiations
The First Elder then inquired, "Clan Chief, do you think our clan's funds are sufficient? Perhaps we could borrow some in advance?"
Upon hearing this, Rizu immediately rejected the idea: "No, first of all, the family funds are more than enough. Master Qufeng has warned that too much of a good thing is bad."
"Furthermore, if you borrow money from someone without telling them what you're going to use it for, and then when Lord Qu Feng starts recruiting investors, you have the money but they can't come up with it, wouldn't that be cheating them?"
"This would absolutely be enough to create enmity, so it's absolutely not feasible."
The Grand Elder realized that his idea was somewhat foolish, so he silently sat back down and stopped talking.
"Alright, since there's nothing else, everyone can disperse. The specific investment information should be available around the end of the year. You don't need to rush. Just complete the fund transfer within one or two months."
The Second Elder said that the mission could definitely be completed within a month, so Ri Zu had nothing to say and let him do as he pleased.
After that, the clan meeting was almost over, and the elders gradually dispersed, leaving only Richa sitting on the side.
"Then, let's discuss Neji and Hinata's rest time."
Hizashi nodded upon hearing this and shared his opinion: "Actually, I didn't care at all at first, because that's how my father treated the two of us back then."
“We’ve been through much tougher things, so we think we’ve been very lenient with our children.”
"But looking at it now, the Hokage's son is about the same age as Neji and Hinata, and he's completely carefree. Aren't we being too strict with our children?"
Hiashi agreed with his younger brother's opinion; they were indeed too strict with their children, and the parenting style their father used back then was no longer applicable to the current situation.
"Now we should be thinking about how long the two children can rest."
"Saturday will definitely be free, since I've already made an agreement with Naruto. If I don't keep my promise, that kid might actually come looking for Lord Torifumi."
The Japanese were also speechless; the background was terrifying, and they couldn't possibly treat this as a child's joke.
"Since Saturday is already free, let's just give the two kids a two-day weekend. Let them play as much as they want; they're at the age where they should be playing anyway."
Play is play, but as the heir of a large family, he certainly can't play as freely as ordinary children.
Two days of rest is already the maximum limit for daily speed and daily variation.
The remaining five days each week will still be dedicated to training.
But these two days are enough time for Neji and Hinata to have fun.
"Alternatively, we can have a weekly training plan. If they finish the plan ahead of schedule, the remaining time can be used for rest. If they don't finish the plan, then the plan will be postponed to the next week."
The younger brother's idea is good. In order to get rest as soon as possible, the two children will definitely complete their weekly schedule quickly.
If the plan is not completed in a week, and the plan is moved to the next week, this snowballing effect will make future plans increasingly difficult to complete.
The two children can only wait for Saturdays and Sundays to rest.
In any case, the completion of the training plan can be guaranteed.
"This is already quite good. Back then, the two of us didn't receive such treatment."
The two brothers were a little envious of the child, who not only improved his talent but also got to take a vacation.
"Alas, to paraphrase what Lord Qufeng once said, what was it again? I just happened to arrive at the wrong time of year."
The two brothers shook their heads helplessly.
"Then I'll be going now, brother. I'll go back and tell Neji about this, so he won't worry about it all the time."
After leaving the clan chief's courtyard, Richa returned to his own home.
His wife had already prepared the meal and was just waiting for him to come home.
Neji, on the other hand, sat on the porch by the door, waiting for his father to return.
"Father! You're back!"
Seeing Neji's excitement, Hizashi patted his head and said, "Well, I discussed some things with your uncle, and it's all over now."
Neji seemed to want to say something but hesitated, which Hizashi naturally noticed: "What, is there something you want to ask me?"
Neji nodded: "Can I...can I still go play with Naruto?"
"Yes, of course you can, why not?"
Neji looked up in surprise at his father, but he couldn't detect a hint of a joke on his father's face.
"The main thing I talked to your uncle about this time was about your and Hinata's rest time."
Hizashi told Neji the results he had obtained, and Neji was overjoyed to hear them!
Not only does he get time off, but he gets two days off every week! This completely exceeded his expectations!
He thought that as long as his father could take him to visit the Cloud Clan on Saturday, Naruto would not forget his friend.
I never expected to have a two-day holiday!
Furthermore, as long as the assigned tasks are completed in advance, the remaining time can be used for rest.
This is truly an incredible piece of good news.
But Neji was also very clever: "Father, will you and Uncle increase our training intensity because of this rule?"
When Rizashi heard his son ask that question, his heart ached terribly. What kind of image did he have in his son's heart?
How could she now imagine her father to be like this?!
"Of course not. The training volume remains the same as before. We've just streamlined and summarized it for you, removing the useless stuff."
Neji nodded. This was a good thing; his father probably wouldn't lie to him.
"So, since I didn't finish my tasks this week, can I make up for them during my break?"
When it came to the important point, Hizashi immediately objected, "That's naturally not possible."
"Training tasks not completed this week will be carried over to the next week, skipping Saturday and Sunday."
Neji naturally understood what was going on.
If they fail to complete their tasks for the week even once, they can basically say goodbye to taking early rest.
To complete this week's tasks ahead of schedule or on time, they need to put in extra effort.
This could be considered an open scheme, but Neji didn't care about such things.
Finishing ahead of schedule was not difficult for him; he was a hard-working kid.
Even if things don't go well, there are still two days of guaranteed time per week.
“I understand, Father. Thank you and Uncle. I’m already very happy to have some time to rest.”
"As for getting a break earlier, I will try my best to achieve that."
Seeing his son's ambition, Hizashi didn't know what to say.
