The Hand of God Creates the Strongest Hidden Mist Village

Chapter 65 A Grand gesture

Under the light, the golden light inside the box was dazzling.

Inside the box were neatly stacked gold bars of fine craftsmanship. Each bar was about the length of a palm and the thickness of two fingers. Its surface was as smooth as a mirror, and its edges were sharp and distinct. There were no markings or marks on them, indicating that they were high-quality goods that had been carefully melted and refined.

"Young Master Cheng, as agreed, this batch of goods totals eighty million taels."

Boss Jin's voice carried an undisguised excitement mixed with a hint of exhaustion, "Here is eight thousand taels of gold, its purity is definitely above 99%, please take a look."

He opened the second and third boxes, and boxes upon boxes of gold bars gleamed with a dazzling luster.

In another corner of the warehouse, there were some specially made blank sealing scrolls, of excellent quality, with complex sealing formulas as their base, and they were quite valuable.

"This gold has been remelted and its purity is guaranteed to satisfy you. You can use it with confidence."

"Hmm, not bad quality."

Makoto Koji casually picked up a gold bar, weighed it in his hand, and then used his chakra to sense its internal structure before nodding.

"So, Young Master Cheng, your goods..."

Boss Jin rubbed his hands together, a look of urgency flashing in his eyes.

Without wasting words, Makoto Goji didn't hesitate. With a wave of his hand, he used the sealing scroll to collect all the items and said calmly, "Come with me."

Boss Jin frowned.

"What does Young Master Cheng mean by this?"

"There's too much cargo, I don't have enough blank reels to load it all. Just bring your people and the reels and come with me."

Upon hearing this, Boss Jin was taken aback, then his face broke into an even more ingratiating smile.

"Young Master Cheng is right, it was my oversight. With so much cargo, we do need some manpower to move it."

He beckoned to the corner of the warehouse, and four of the most capable-looking and composed employees immediately put down their work and strode over.

Each person had several bulging blank seal scrolls hanging from their waist.

"These are my four most capable men. They're efficient and keep their mouths shut," Boss Jin introduced, then lowered his voice, implying, "Young Master Cheng, rest assured, they all know the rules."

Gouju Cheng glanced at the four people, nodded slightly, said nothing more, and turned to walk outside.

Boss Jin quickly gestured for the four to follow, and the group once again passed through the narrow staircase and heavy iron gate, returning to the back alley of the izakaya.

Night had fallen, and the alley was quiet and deserted, with only the faint sounds of noise coming from the main street in the distance.

Gouju Cheng walked ahead, his pace unhurried, as if he were taking a stroll after a meal.

Boss Jin followed closely behind, while the four capable employees tacitly dispersed around him, forming a guard formation, their eyes scanning the surroundings warily.

Instead of heading towards the bustling areas of Chitang City, the group walked towards the more secluded north of the city, closer to the foothills.

The further away from the center, the narrower and darker the streets become, with few pedestrians and only a few scattered lights.

"Young Master Cheng, we're going to..."

Boss Jin asked tentatively, his face still smiling, but a hint of doubt flashed deep in his eyes.

"There's too much stock, and storing it in the city isn't convenient, so I found a quiet place." Gouju Cheng said calmly without turning his head, "What, is Boss Jin afraid I'll double-cross him?"

"Not at all, Young Master Cheng is too kind."

Boss Jin quickly waved his hand, but his eyes involuntarily glanced at his four subordinates.

The four men nodded slightly, indicating that everything was normal and that they had not detected any tracking or ambush.

After walking for about half an hour, they arrived near an abandoned mine on the northern outskirts of Chitang City.

This place was once one of the important sulfur mines in the Land of Hot Springs, but it has long since dried up and been abandoned, leaving only some broken wooden frames, rusted tracks and dark mine entrances, which look like gaping mouths in the night, exuding desolation and eeriness.

"This is it."

Gouju Cheng stopped in front of what appeared to be an ordinary mine entrance.

The entrance to the cave was partially covered by waist-high weeds and collapsed soil and rocks, making it difficult to spot without close inspection.

"A mine?"

Boss Jin frowned even more deeply: "Young Master Cheng, storing goods in a place like this... this..."

"The most dangerous place is often the safest, isn't it?"

Gouju Cheng turned around, a faint smile on his face, his purple eyes appearing somewhat deep in the dim moonlight: "Don't worry, I've cleaned it up inside, it's very safe. You all brought your scrolls, right? Go in and load the goods."

He bent down first, pushed aside the weeds, and crawled into the mine shaft.

Boss Jin hesitated for a moment, then gave his four subordinates a wink.

Two of them immediately took the lead and followed Makoto Koji into the mine, while the other two stayed at the entrance, guarding it on the left and right, while vigilantly looking around at the desolate wilderness.

The mine was much deeper than I had imagined. The passageways twisted downwards, and the air was damp and cold, filled with a faint smell of sulfur and dust.

There are obvious signs of artificial excavation on the cave walls, but due to years of neglect, many parts have collapsed, so you need to be careful when going around them.

After walking for about a few minutes, the faint sound of dripping water could be heard ahead, and the space gradually opened up.

"arrive."

Gouju Cheng's voice echoed slightly in the empty cave.

He stopped and lit a makeshift torch that he had somehow produced.

The flickering flames of the disc player dispelled some of the darkness, illuminating the scene before them.

This is a naturally formed cave, about half the size of a basketball court. Some stalactites hang from the cave ceiling, and there are many stalagmites on the ground. The ground is rugged and uneven, with a relatively flat area in the center.

And in that very area, mountains of supplies were clearly visible!

Numerous sealed wooden crates, bundles of kunai and shuriken, neatly stacked explosive tags, bags of tightly sealed rations, boxes of medical supplies...

There were even a few specially made metal boxes, with the emblem of the Land of Craftsmen faintly reflecting in the firelight!

This is part of the supplies that Makoto Kuraki brought from the Konoha Sōnan Supply Station!

Although it only represents the majority of the caverns, the quantity is still astonishing, almost filling half of the cave.

"So...so many!"

Even though Boss Jin was well-informed and experienced in black market transactions, he couldn't help but gasp, his eyes instantly filled with greed.

The two men behind him stared wide-eyed, their breathing becoming heavy.

Although they knew it was a big deal, they hadn't expected it to be on such a massive scale. The value of these supplies far exceeded their initial estimates!

Gouju Cheng stuck the torch into a crevice in the rock and leisurely patted the ash off his hands.

"Here you go, the goods are all here!"

"Enough! Enough!"

Boss Jin snapped out of his daze, his face instantly plastered with an almost fawning smile, and he exclaimed repeatedly, "Young Master Cheng is truly a man of his word! Such a generous gesture, such a generous gesture indeed!"

As he spoke, he strode to the pile of supplies, casually opened a wooden box, grabbed a handful of kunai to examine their quality, then tore open a bag of ration pills and sniffed them, his face growing increasingly pleased.

All of these are top-quality goods!
