After leaving home, Mo Chen immediately went to the commercial district.
"Hey, this is the dumpling shop that Uchiha Itachi often goes to in the future, right?" Mo Chen rubbed his chin and walked in.
After a lot of selection, he walked out of the store with two strings of three-color meatballs in his hand. After taking a bite, he murmured, "It tastes just like this, nothing special."
He finished eating both strings of three-color meatballs in no time, and then Mo Chen began to examine them carefully.
There are barbecue restaurants, clothing stores, and even casinos.
"Although we have everything, we don't have things like hot pot, and the styles of these clothes are too low!"
But when he touched his pocket, Mo Chen found that his starting capital seemed to be only a mere one hundred taels.
After taking a look at the bill hanging above Ichiraku Ramen, which showed that a bowl of ramen cost eighty taels, Mo Chen's face suddenly fell.
It's just a hundred taels. What else can you do with it besides eating a bowl of ramen?
Besides, Ninja School will start in three days, and I don't have that much time to do it!
"Wow! What a cute little brother! Are you hungry standing here? I'll buy you some ramen."
Suddenly, a little girl about the same age as Mo Chen walked out of Ichiraku Ramen Restaurant and exclaimed at the sad-looking Mo Chen.
"I—"
Although he didn't know this little Lolita, he could tell from her appearance that she was Acorus calamus.
But as soon as he opened his mouth to explain, Ayame interrupted him and said, "Little brother, you don't have to be shy. Ichiraku Ramen is my sister's. I can treat you to ramen!"
"Father, let's treat this little brother to some ramen!" Acorus took Mo Chen a few steps into the store and said to Yile.
"Hahaha." The still-young Ichiraku laughed heartily and agreed, "No problem."
"I'm not standing in front of Ichiraku Ramen because I'm hungry!"
Until this time, Mo Chen finally had the chance to speak, but Yile had already taken action, so there seemed to be no need for any explanation.
At worst, I can just pay after eating. I happen to be a little hungry.
So Mo Chen stopped worrying about it and started thinking about how to make money.
Minato and Kushina adopted him and took care of him in every possible way. Mo Chen didn't have the face to ask them for money.
After he spent all his pocket money on ramen, he only had twenty taels left, which he could only use to buy small items like paper and pens.
"Huh!" After taking a deep breath, Mo Chen made up his mind.
Just at this time, Acorus also came with a bowl of noodles, waking up Mo Chen.
"The noodles are here, please enjoy."
After putting down the bowl, Changpu hid aside, but her eyes always stayed on Mo Chen's face.
This little brother is so cute, I really want to rub his face!
No, no, Acorus, how can you have such rude thoughts?
Shaking her little head vigorously, Acorus forced herself to turn her head away and stopped looking at Mo Chen.
Mo Chen naturally had no idea what this little loli, who was about the same age as him, was thinking. In order to start his own business as soon as possible, he finished the bowl of ramen in no time.
"I'm full, thanks for the treat!"
Putting the eighty taels in his hand on the table, Mo Chen thanked Changpu very politely and then left quickly.
He still had things to do. Are little lolita and the like as good as little money?
Let's talk about it after you grow up to be a big loli!
After leaving Ichiraku Ramen, Mo Chen pushed his physical fitness to its limit and bought a pen and a notebook, just enough to spend the remaining twenty taels.
"Hey! Wasn't it too early to pay the money before? Otherwise, there wouldn't be such a dilemma."
Touching his empty pockets, Mo Chen couldn't help but sigh.
In fact, he still had some money, not much, but about four or five hundred thousand taels, but he had given it all to Kushina.
Originally, Kushina didn't want it, but under his own determination, she kept the money and used it to marry a wife.
This is what caused Mo Chen's current predicament.
"But it doesn't matter. I don't have time to do those things anyway, and I don't have anyone I can trust."
Shaking his head, throwing all these thoughts out of his mind, Mo Chen solemnly picked up the pen in his hand.
This is the basis for whether he can make a lot of money, so he has no choice but to take it seriously.
The four words "Nanpo Cangqiong" appeared on the notebook in front of Mo Chen.
That's right, Mo Chen was planning to be a plagiarist and spread the best-selling books from his previous life in this world.
He had read Jiraiya's "The Legend of the Ninja" at Minato's place, and to be honest, it was really not that good.
Even something like this could sell well, so Mo Chen didn't believe that the popular books from his previous life would fail!
Swish! Swish! Swish!
Relying on his memories and adaptations, Mo Chen's hands never stopped for a moment, and the little man lay there writing furiously.
Until Minato returned home in the afternoon, Mo Chen was still writing with great concentration.
In the living room, Minato and Kushina discussed things.
"I have already obtained the enrollment certificate for Mo Chen. We will send him to school when the Ninja School starts!"
Minato waved the paper instructions in his hand with some pride.
"However, Mo Chen's chakra is very strong. It would be a bit too much to let him go to school."
Although it wasn't stated explicitly, Kushina could completely understand what Minato meant by that.
Kushina smiled softly and said, "It's okay. Mo Chen also said before that he wanted to go to the ninja school."
With just a few words, the two decided Mo Chen's fate for the next six years.
I don't know if Mo Chen would commit suicide out of grief and anger after knowing that he missed an opportunity to change his fate.
He did say he wanted to go to Ninja School, but that was before he got the purple card of the Nine-Tails, not now!
But even if he knew, Mo Chen would only be more grateful to Minato and Kushina.
Do you really think it's that easy to get into a ninja school? The admission certificate in Minato's hand is very rare.
Otherwise, the ninja school would have been overcrowded. How could there be only so few people?
Just as they were discussing Mo Chen's affairs, rumors gradually spread in Konoha.
With the help of some people with ulterior motives, Orochimaru's reputation became worse and worse, while Minato's reputation became better and better.
The situation that was originally under control no longer remained so. Minato came from behind and even suppressed Orochimaru.
Ordinary people don't know what happened, but some smart people know very well how unimaginable it was when this Konoha White Fang Hatake Sakumo died!
In addition, the wife of Hyuga Hizashi, the head of the Hyuga branch family, the owner of Konoha's largest weapons shop, and a civilian woman are all pregnant.
Three of the future Twelve Young Warriors of Konoha have already begun to emerge.
Of course, they were still almost ten months away from being born.
Mo Chen didn't know about these things, nor did he care. After an afternoon of hard work, he had more than 20,000 words in his notebook, which was really a cause for celebration!
