Chapter 180 - 75: Finally, the Burden is Lifted
"Ah, finally, we've thrown off this burden. Rin, go book a few seats at Torii Grilled Chicken and notify all department-level cadres. Let's have a good meal to celebrate," Yashamaru cheerfully instructed his secretary.
"Boss, isn't this a bit inappropriate? If we make too much noise and the Akatsuki organization finds out, wouldn't they become suspicious?" Rin asked with some concern.
Yashamaru thought for a moment, nodded, and replied, "You're right. You're always more thorough. Now is the critical period for our retreat; there's no need to expose ourselves for a meal. Fine, notify all the leadership. I'll treat everyone to this dinner at the Moon Lake New District later."
"Understood," Rin replied with a smile and a nod.

"All thanks to those young folks in Akatsuki. Otherwise, I'd have no idea how to complete the Kazekage-sama's retreat mission. Now, we can leave those young ones to deal with those troublesome union organizations," he said with a sly grin.
Rin chuckled softly and replied, "Boss, that's not very kind of you. They think they've picked up a golden nugget, not knowing it's just a burning hot piece of junk."
"Young people need to taste the hardships of the world to understand how hard it is to earn money—or eat shit, for that matter—before they can grow," Yashamaru said with a mischievous smile.
"By the way, how much money do we still have in the account?" he asked.
"Not much, just enough to pay all the workers for one month," Rin replied.
"What's today's date?"
