Chapter 65: INAZ - 64

"I just said, I established a small village and need a financial controller," Shinji explained patiently.
"I'm not going. A small village has no future prospects. Can't even collect proper taxes," Kakuzu refused outright. Hearing Kakuzu's words, both Konan and the Deva Path Pain nodded in satisfaction.
"Our village will develop rapidly in the future. Meaning, our village's ability to make money will definitely not be bad later on," Shinji continued to entice.
"Do I look like someone who loves money?" Kakuzu asked back.
"Aren't you?"
"What about future development? What scale? How much profit? How much tax prepaid?" Kakuzu now instantly transformed into a professional financial expert, throwing a barrage of questions at Shinji.
"If Mr. Kakuzu is interested, we can sit down and discuss in detail. After all, the financial issues of a village, I think it's best for us to sit down and clarify things. But what I can promise Mr. Kakuzu is..." Shinji suddenly paused, building suspense.
"Is what?"
"All matters concerning financial management within the village can be fully entrusted to Mr. Kakuzu. All expenditures or incomes requiring funds need your approval," Shinji directly threw out an attractive point.
"This..." Kakuzu fell silent for a moment. This proposal was undeniably attractive, especially for him. Being able to completely grasp the finances of a village, perhaps his ambitions could... Remember, although he handled finances in Akatsuki, many matters still required decisions from the Deva Path Pain or Konan. In terms of freedom, it certainly wasn't that free.
