Regarding this, Jiraiya also felt proud of himself.
His first debut work had already gained recognition in the Ninja Realm’s literary field. What Jiraiya was thinking was to speed up the writing of his second book.
Strike while the iron is hot, that’s the idea.
Just as Jiraiya began to conceive the second book, the door of the room was knocked on.
"What’s the matter?"
Jiraiya walked to the door, opened it, and saw a maid from the hotel. Behind her were several n in black suits, which left Jiraiya puzzled.
What is this about?
The maid said, "Mr. Jiraiya, these guests are here to see you."
"See ?"
Jiraiya examined the n in black behind the maid, feeling sowhat inexplicable.
He definitely didn’t know these people.
The maid nodded and then left.
"Mr. Jiraiya, do you mind if we address you like this?"
The leading man in black asked with a smile.
"Ah, I don’t mind. Well, please co in."
Jiraiya scratched his head, not quite sure what these people were here for.
But as guests, it’s still best to warmly welco them and let them in to discuss things.
"Sorry to bother you."
The n in black followed Jiraiya into the house.
Jiraiya prepared tea for them and then sat down.
"Please enjoy the tea."
"You’re too kind, Mr. Jiraiya. Being hosted by one of the Sannin, Mr. Jiraiya, is truly an honor."
Jiraiya didn’t show any surprise at this.
These people obviously ca prepared, besides which, his fa in the Ninja Realm is quite large. A simple check would reveal basic information about him.
He was also curious about their purpose for seeking him.
These people seed to be regular people with so combat skills, not born as ninjas.
"No matter. I’m quite interested in your purpose for coming to see . Can you explain?"
Normally, those who co to find him are ninjas, rarely are there non-ninja personnel looking to discuss things.
"Indeed. Before we proceed, let introduce ourselves. We are workers from the Shion Flower Film Production Company, under the Shion Flower rchants Association, from the Land of Demons."
"Land of Demons? Film production company?"
Jiraiya’s eyes widened slightly, sowhat incredulous.
He had heard a bit about the unusual changes in the Land of Demons in recent years.
Before the Third Ninja War, the Shion Flower rchants Association in the Land of Demons was already one of the giant rchant associations in the Ninja Realm, with nurous companies under it, encompassing industries so broad that one would be astounded.
And after the Third Ninja War, the pharmaceutical company under the Shion Flower rchants Association rose up, solidifying the association’s wealth.
Currently, the Shion Flower rchants Association’s loan business covers almost every country in the Ninja Realm, known for its wealth rivalling nations. It’s said that the Hidden Sand Village in the Land of Wind borrowed a large sum of developnt funds from the association.
They even established a dedicated Debt Collector departnt, gaining a bit of fa in the Ninja Realm.
They have business dealings with many major rchants in the Land of Fire, and can be considered distinguished guests in many countries.
Within Konoha, there are many branches established by the Shion Flower rchants Association, covering industries like pharmaceuticals and food.
The personnel from such a large rchant association coming to seek him was indeed a surprise to Jiraiya.
"Well, if you’re looking to cooperate with Konoha, it’s better to find my teacher, the Third Hokage, since the village always handles cooperation matters with rchant associations."
Jiraiya assud these people ca to see him for cooperation with Konoha.
But he simply couldn’t make decisions on such important matters.
The financial and logistical aspects are controlled by advisors Utatane Koharu and Mitokado Homura. Decision-making power for cooperating with foreign rchant associations belongs to his teacher, Hiruzen Sarutobi.
As one of the Sannin, he had no reason to be involved, otherwise it would overstep his boundaries and easily arouse suspicion from the village.
"It’s not about that. Perhaps we didn’t explain clearly. We’re workers from the Shion Flower Film Production Company under the Shion Flower rchants Association, and our purpose isn’t to cooperate with Konoha. The cooperation is purely personal with you, Mr. Jiraiya."
Therefore, finding Konoha really isn’t necessary.
"Cooperate with ?"
"Film company... Have you heard about it, Mr. Jiraiya?"
"I’ve heard of it. It seems like a new industry booming in the Land of Demons a year ago, and it seems quite popular in the surrounding countries."
"Mr. Jiraiya has quite an extensive information collection, indeed."
A gleam flashed in the eyes of the man in black.
Jiraiya scratched his head and smiled: "I just happen to know a little."
Indeed, he only happened to know a little.
Because the rise of the Land of Demons in recent years was quite abnormal, naturally catching many people’s attention.
He rely collected so simple information about the Land of Demons. His pursuit was still focused on Orochimaru and that mysterious organization.
"Our purpose here is for this. We hope to purchase the copyright of your work, Mr. Jiraiya."
Spoke the man in black seriously.
"Copyright of my work?"
Jiraiya blinked, realizing it was probably his officially published debut novel, "Icha Icha Paradise."
"Yes, I was fortunate enough to read Mr. Jiraiya’s work. If adapted into a movie, I believe it would achieve further success."
The sincere expression of the man in black piqued Jiraiya’s interest.
