Chapter 285: Two years later, building a palace
Two years later, the long years have changed many people and many things, but Konoha is still standing and thriving.
After experiencing three Ninja World Wars and winning three times, Konoha quickly announced to the Ninja World with thundering force who was the boss.
After the war, Konoha quickly organized its forces and began to radiate rescue efforts in the surrounding areas, with the village as the center.
After absorbing post-war reparations and a vast amount of land, Konoha extended a helping hand and provided assistance to those affected by the war.
The Fourth Hokage, Hatake Sakumo, solemnly declared to the ninja world: "Konoha loves peace and does not want the war to spread. Stability and peace are what we want."
"After the war, many families were destroyed, which is an outcome we don't want to see."
"In response to this, Konoha has decided to send a rescue team to provide assistance. If you have any difficulties, you can speak up."
The words of the Hokage quickly spread to every corner of the ninja world, like dandelions, blown by the breeze, and the seeds were carried to all parts of the world to take root and sprout, ushering in a new life.
The Third Shinobi World War affected the entire Shinobi world, countless villages and small countries were destroyed, and millions of people were displaced and left homeless.
The wilderness was filled with wanderers and orphans. They looked numb and the light in their eyes had long since disappeared, as if the world was gray and shrouded in darkness.
Shuo Mao's words were like a downpour after a long drought. The dry earth finally waited for the rain to fall, adding a bit of vitality to the dead heart.
Konoha mobilized almost the entire village to work overtime to produce daily necessities, which were then distributed by ninjas.
Fortunately, Sakumo pardoned the prisoners before, otherwise, there would definitely not be enough manpower.
Konoha fulfilled all of the promises made by Kaede Hoshino, without any falsehood, and all of them were implemented in place.
Anyone who wants to join Konoha will be treated equally, allocated housing, and given welfare benefits as long as they pass the review.
Of course, there will naturally be some dissatisfaction, but given the general environment, it will soon be drowned out by the torrent of noise.
Due to Konoha's great achievements in the past two years, it has won the hearts of the people and brought in population, and many refugees have flocked to Konoha.
In this regard, Konoha had already made a plan, guiding people to register in an orderly manner, and then assigning jobs and housing.
Here, Hoshino Feng had to praise his teacher. The Wood Release method of building a house was really fast and it was completed in just a few seconds.
It has a long service life, and if it becomes an industry, the profits will be crazy.
During this period, Konoha expanded on its original basis, and many old buildings were demolished and rebuilt.
It is worth mentioning that the original Hokage residence was also demolished, along with the adjacent ninja school and the surrounding residential buildings.
A large piece of land was vacated, occupying the prime location in the center of Konoha.
Such a big fuss was made just to build a magnificent imperial palace and its subordinate administrative agencies and departments.
This place will become the heart of Konoha, supplying fresh blood to various places and issuing orders.
The palace occupies 70% of the area. The project was so grand that it required the employment of tens of thousands of workers to fine-tune every detail.
In Sakumo's words: Your palace not only represents Konoha's economic strength and cultural level, but also is a symbol of Konoha's spirit and a witness to history.
This reason convinced everyone except Hoshino Kaede, and they all agreed. They all agreed that the palace had to be shocking at first glance in order to demonstrate its majesty.
The purpose of such a huge project naturally could not be concealed from the public. Shuomao had no intention of concealing it, so he spread the news.
Now, the whole Konoha was boiling with excitement. It was not because they were dissatisfied, but because they were excited and expectant.
The construction of the palace means that the rumors from a few days ago are true.
The faces of some people who had written letters to Sakumo flushed, out of excitement and excitement, because it meant that their letters had an effect.
In an instant, like boiling water, the news spread back and forth, and finally it spread everywhere.
There is a kind of attention called being the center of attention. Xingye Feng originally just came out to buy some vegetables, but he received many pairs of respectful glances on the way, which made the corners of his mouth twitch.
These days, whenever he goes out, he can gain so much respect that he can't even get enough of it.
"Everyone, can you please make way? I still need to go out to buy groceries." Xingye Feng said helplessly, raising the basket.
But just as he finished his words, the next second, the empty basket was filled to the brim.
Vegetables and fruits of various varieties, with dewdrops glistening on the surface, show at a glance that they are freshly picked, absolutely pollution-free and pure natural.
Xingye Feng looked at the full basket and was speechless: "What else are you buying? It's full in just a few steps."
These were all kind gestures from the people, and the gifts were small but the sentiment was profound, so Xingye Feng had no choice but to accept them, and then instantly left the scene and returned home.
The thrilling scene was too much for even a big-hearted person like Xingye Feng to bear, and a layer of sweat appeared on his forehead.
"Oh my god, this is too enthusiastic." He looked at the vegetables and fruits in the basket and couldn't help but complain.
But the smile on his face said it all, he was in a great mood.
"Teacher, why did you buy so many vegetables?" Yahiko, who had just finished training, was sweating profusely. His eyes were instantly attracted by the full basket and he said in surprise.
Xingye Feng carried the basket and put it on the table, and said helplessly: "These were all given by the people outside. Your teacher was almost stuck there."
Upon hearing this, Yahiko said with a smirk on his face, "Oh, so that's how it is."
He said that, but actually his tone sounded like he deserved a beating. Xingye Feng grinned grimly, took three or two steps forward, and punched him on the head.
With one punch, a big bump will appear on the top of the head in a very magical and scientific way.
"You little brat, you have the guts to tease me. Tomorrow's training workload will be doubled." Hoshino Kaede smiled and said something that made Yahiko regret it extremely.
He immediately started wailing, looking very miserable, but Xingye Feng had long been immune to these things and said with a blank expression.
"No room for negotiation. Go wash the vegetables. Otherwise, how about quadrupling the price?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Yahiko's expression changed quickly. He took the basket and ran straight to the kitchen, working as diligently as a little bee.
Seeing this, Xingye Feng chuckled and shook his head, then his headache started again. He was wondering how he would go out next.
He wouldn't have to climb over the wall and leave every time, would that be very embarrassing? After all, he is a well-known figure.
Just when he was worried, Kimimaro, who was already four years old, came down from upstairs barefoot and was seen by Hoshino Kaede.
In an instant, all the worries were thrown behind him. Hoshino Feng stopped thinking about it and just picked up Kimimaro and started rubbing him.
Kimimaro, who had lived here for two years, showed no reaction to this. His eyes were calm, as if he was used to it and he did not resist at all.
It’s not the first or second time this has happened, so just follow your parents.
