Chapter 388
With Tian Yuanshi's response, the entire Kirigakure leadership passed the resolution to participate in the war by a unanimous vote.
Seeing this, Mizunuki Ryosuke smiled lightly. To pacify the outside, one must first settle the inside; at such a time, unifying the internal stance first is incredibly important.
With Mizunuki Ryosuke's current approval rating within Kirigakure, it is likely unprecedented for any generation of Mizukage. Such control is something the previous generation's Mizukage, Mizunuki Taki, would not have dared to imagine.
"Great Elder, the village's current material reserves."
"And how is the operational status of the material factories?"
Mizunuki Ryosuke asked Tian Yuanshi on the side.
Upon hearing this, Tian Yuanshi nodded and then began to slowly speak about Kirigakure's current material reserves.
The massive amount of various war material reserves that Tian Yuanshi spoke of left several people at the table dumbfounded.
"What's going on?"
"When did the village's material reserves become so abundant?"
Several people looked at each other, not knowing when the village had hoarded such a massive amount of war materials.
To this, Ryosuke only revealed a mysterious smile.
Since Ryosuke took office, he had set about establishing a large number of factories around Kirigakure to produce explosive tags, ninja tools, medical supplies, and other strategic materials, even going so far as to pour all of Kirigakure's funds into them.
Not only did he produce them himself, but Ryosuke also spent money to buy large quantities of food and medical supplies from other countries.
Although these materials are important, their prices during peacetime and after the outbreak of war are completely different.
Once the war begins, these materials will rise to an astronomical price.
In the past two years, the funds in the Kirigakure treasury have become empty, all converted into various war reserves.
And now that the Ninja World is on the verge of a great war, these materials hoarded in advance by Kirigakure will instantly skyrocket in value.
It is foreseeable that just by selling materials during the war, this wave will be enough for Kirigakure to make a fortune.
Having such a massive reserve of war materials also gave everyone more confidence.
"I conclude that this Ninja World War will be no less than the Ninja World War that broke out more than a decade ago."
"The scale might even be greater."
"I divide this war into three stages, and in different stages, we will adopt different strategies to harvest benefits for Kirigakure."
Mizunuki Ryosuke said unhurriedly, a deep light flickering in his eyes.
"The first stage is called the 'warming-up stage' of the war."
"In this stage, the major ninja villages will gradually participate in the war."
"And the scale of the war will continue to expand, but the participating countries will still maintain a certain degree of restraint."
"In this stage, Kirigakure will not participate in the war; we only need to sell materials and weapons to the countries caught in the war."
"Regarding this part, I have already established cooperation with the Third Kazekage of Sunagakure and the leader of the Rain Ninja, Hanzo of the Salamander."
Mizunuki Ryosuke told everyone about his plan, and his words also caused a flash of admiration in Tian Yuanshi's eyes.
Although he trusted Ryosuke, he still had a hint of worry in his heart, fearing that the overly young Ryosuke might be a bit too eager for success.
But seeing Ryosuke's arrangements were so seasoned, Tian Yuanshi had to be convinced. ===== CHAPTER 390 =====
