Chapter 69: Famous Spokesperson
Chapter 69: Famous Spokesperson
Takako, who was sitting on the ground, rubbed her mouth, rubbing her painful part, and complained: "Boss, I can't wake you up. I thought you were dead!"
"Nonsense! Aren't I still breathing?"
Takako was still pouting: "I thought you wouldn't wake up, so I wanted to use cardiopulmonary resuscitation that you taught me to rescue you~ But you suddenly widened your eyes, you scared me to death..."
Li Yaoxiang: "..."
Li Yaoxiang looked at Takako suspiciously. However, Li Yaoxiang did not intend to continue to struggle with this issue.
He glared at Takako angrily and coldly said: "Hurriedly looking for me; what's the matter?"
Takako stuck out her tongue and immediately replied: "Don't you always invite Yuri-sama to our restaurant before? He sent someone to answer today."
Li Yaoxiang was overjoyed!
He had been waiting for this moment.
This Yuri-sama, whose full name is Uehara Yuri*, is not Daimyo, but Li Yaoxiang's 1st step to getting close to Daimyo!
[TL note: original character(?)]
This chapter upload first at NovelUsb.Com
As described in the original work, this so-called Daimyo; their identity and status, to put it plainly, is the same as the princes in ancient times. They have their own territory. And every territory has its own leader. Normally, an ordinary person won't get to know any Daimyo personally. Even being able to approach Daimyo is not possible. Even some people who live in the same town as them have never seen Daimyo at a glance.
It can be seen that Li Yaoxiang wants to infiltrate the circle of Daimyo, the difficulty of which can be imagined. Hence why until now, Li Yaoxiang runs some high-end restaurants. These high-end restaurants are specifically to greet these Daimyo, or the second-class rich, nobles, and so on.
Unfortunately.
Although sometimes, Li Yaoxiang really waited until Daimyo to come to visit his restaurant, this group of supercilious Daimyo has many guards around them. In addition to food, idler and others should not be allowed to approach Daimyo's box.
Daimyo will not have the leisure to meet Li Yaoxiang, the owner.
Most of the time, after the meal is over, they just slapped their farts and leave.
Although they will not meet people casually, they still have a bridge of communication.
And this Uehara friend is precisely this channel!
It is also the goal of Li Yaoxiang's retreat! Because he is the Daimyo's spokesperson in this town!
What gifts need to be given, what kind of goodness can cooperate, what benefits can be divided, etc. In short, as long as your status is not sufficient to meet Daimyo directly, then you have to pass a spokesperson like Uehara Yuri to have the opportunity to reach Daimyo.
Don't think that because Uehara Yuri is only Daimyo's spokesperson, which means he is easy to deal with. With Daimyo as his backer, these spokespersons can be arrogant!
Even he didn't take Li Yaoxiang, a newly rich man who has risen in just a few years, seriously. To be honest, Li Yaoxiang had already sent people to invite him several times, and there was no news at all.
The reason why Uehara Yuri was invited to come this time is probably because Li Yaoxiang gave him a list of gifts when he sent someone to ask him last time. And this list of gifts is still the one that assigns 'him' by name and surname. Otherwise, he will still be the same as before, and Li Yaoxiang will not be a bird in his eyes.
The reason why Li Yaoxiang has tolerated the supercilious attitude of Uehara is that for Li Yaoxiang, it was simply impossible to confirm his conjecture about Five Great Countries is correct.
After all, he did not forget the doubts he found when he left Konoha!
'Why would Shisui tell him that as long as he enters the town, the people of Danzo will probably not do anything?'
'Why did Danzo really send no one to chase him down into the town?'
'Also, why is the powerful Five-Great Ninja Villages strong enough to be subject to the checks and balances of Five Great Countries?'
These questions were all very puzzled even before Li Yaoxiang transmigrated here. And now that he has been transmigrated to Naruto World, of course, it is impossible to ignore these problems!
These problems are likely to be important materials for his future darkening Naruto!
After the real side of Naruto World is known, then he can better plan for the future and make sure that his plans are foolproof!
It's just that everything is different now!!!
With the new function of the Astral Projection system, he can check in advance whether the real situation is exactly similar to his guess. If it is correct, it means that Uehara Yuri will be included in his field of view and is eligible to become a chess piece in his future. He can throw a 'one-time Kotoamatsukami' directly without having to talk to him for a long time.
If the guess is not correct, it means that Uehara has no exploit value for him at all, and it is no longer necessary to get involved with him anymore.
"Did this Uehara say when he would come?"
Upon hearing this news, Li Yaoxiang quickly forgot the rude behavior of Takako just now.
Takako relaxed: "The man said it was three days later."
Li Yaoxiang pondered.
'Three days... enough.'
"Boss, is there anything I need to prepare?"
"No need."
That's right!
With Astral Projection, Li Yaoxiang can save gifts! So there is no need to waste too much energy thinking of gifts!
.....
After Takako left, Li Yaoxiang did not say anything further. Instead, he closed the door, then immediately use the Astral Projection to go to Uehara's mansion to investigate.
He soon came to the mansion of Uehara.
The residence of Uehara is an old building of Japanese style on a few floors. It looks antique and very luxurious. All around in ancient buildings are surrounded by walls.
Li Yaoxiang went through layers of walls and explored all angles and rooms in the mansion, and he found some clues! Then he actually found a device that is imprisoned by Chakra originated from Land of Snow! And based on the appearance alone, this model seems to be more advanced than Land-of-Snow equipment!
[TL note: The Land of Snow (Yuki no Kuni) is a nation introduced in Naruto the Movie: Ninja Clash in the Land of Snow, that is also briefly mentioned in the anime and in the Hiden novels. Originally, the country was a small, but peaceful place. However, it was taken over by a tyrant, Dot Kazahana, after he and his mercenaries killed his older brother and predecessor, Ssetsu Kazahana. As the name of the country suggests, the climate is rather cold with winter covering the land in snow and ice year round. The landscape is dominated by snowy mountains with tall glaciers making parts of the coastline inaccessible from the sea.]
Li Yaoxiang couldn't help laughing when he was exploring. It seems that the facts of Five Great Countries are pretty close to his guess. Things have become more and more interesting.
The specific situation is that after three days, the fish in Uehara Yuri is hooked, and everything belongs to Akatsuki...
