I’m a Hokage in Tokyo

“whispering sound.”

An unhappy look flashed across Sakaki Namiryu’s face, and she took a few steps towards him.

They surrounded Sakaki Namiryu and kept saying something, with flattering and humble looks on their faces.

“That fat guy is the vice president of Kinokuniya Bookstore. He has been lobbying me recently to have his company publish a biography about my brother-in-law.”

After a few minutes, after sending the people away for the time being, Sakaki Naminru came back and shook her head:

“The others are similar. They want something from me, no, from my brother-in-law. I didn’t expect them to follow me here. They are really tactless.”

“Sister Namiryu, you are confused by the situation. Their purpose is not that simple.”

Matsudaira Chiyo couldn’t help laughing and said:

“Snakes have their ways, rats have their ways. Although he is just a local tyrant in Shizuoka Prefecture, he is still well-informed.”

Sakaki Namiryu was slightly stunned, then she understood.

“Sister Namiryu, Uncle Uchiha has always been elusive. We don’t know how many ‘distinguished guests’ will come to visit us if we take this opportunity.” Matsudaira Chiyo said playfully.

Before he finished speaking, the old village chief exclaimed from outside the yard:

“Mayor, why are you here?”

“Why, I can’t come? I feel like it’s a little late. The all-night ceremony hasn’t started yet.”

A middle-aged man with an official look signed his name at the front desk, and the secretary beside him immediately took out a letter from the Emperor and handed it to him with both hands.

“No, no, no, that’s not what I meant.” The old village chief waved his hands repeatedly.

At this moment, several luxury cars stopped in the open space outside the country house, and several wealthy men came over with a crowd of people.

“The president of Marunchi Tea Co., Ltd.”

“Also, the president of the Shizuoka Prefecture Agricultural Association!”

The old village chief’s expression changed again and again. He was more concerned about these two uninvited guests than the mayor of Kawanemoto Town, to which the village belonged.

Marunchi Tea Manufacturing Co., Ltd. is the leading tea company in Shizuoka Prefecture. Several villages in Shizuoka Prefecture have no worries about food and clothing because of this big company, which makes the old village chiefs very envious.

As for the Agricultural Association, its importance goes without saying for a village that mainly relies on agricultural production.

It is no exaggeration to say that if the Agricultural Association tightens its grip, more than a thousand people in the village will have to tighten their belts and prepare to starve.

Although the guests were all prominent, they were all very friendly to the old village chief and presented him with a feast.

The old village chief did not dare to neglect them and brought them into the house.

Several dignitaries glanced at the mourning hall casually, then looked around as if they were looking for someone.

“Minister Uchiha, haven’t you arrived yet?”

Just as the old village chief was about to answer, a villager ran in in a panic.

“Why are you in such a hurry? Can’t you see I’m entertaining guests?”

The man said to the old village chief with a sad face:

“The mayor of Matsushima City and several other big bosses are here. We don’t know what to do. Village chief, you are the only one who can help.”

The old village chief’s expression suddenly became very interesting.

The visit of several local dignitaries from Shizuoka Prefecture was like opening Pandora’s box.

In less than an hour, all kinds of luxury cars were parked outside the country house.

The table in front of the imperial spirit was already piled full.

The old village chief, who was registering his name at the front desk, went through feelings of panic, surprise, and uneasiness, and now he has become numb.

President of Japan’s Shizuoka Shimbun.

Mayor of Shimizu City.

Member of the Shizuoka Prefecture Council.

Director of Kawasaki Machinery Co., Ltd.

……

Half of Shizuoka Prefecture’s wealthy people and celebrities gathered in this small farmyard.

At first, the old village chief was very nervous, fearing that his poor hospitality would anger these distinguished guests.

But they were all graceful and polite, and did not at all mind the shabby yard and the lack of wine, as if they were attending a social dinner.

When the villagers who arrived late to pay their respects saw this, they all huddled around and watched, not daring to step forward.

“Hiss, the license plate of this Cadillac came from Tokyo.”

“The mayor of Shizuoka City has arrived, too. Who is the mayor of Shizuoka Prefecture who hasn’t come yet?”

“It’s so glorious! If I die, there will be so many important people coming to pay their respects. I will die without regrets!”

“Hehe, is your last name Uchiha?”

For the villagers who had never seen the world, this kind of scene was truly an eye-opener.

Everyone smacked their lips and talked a lot.

“Governor, you are here too! Kawanemoto Town is truly honored!”

Suddenly, there was a burst of noise at the door, even the celebrities and wealthy people who were chatting with each other in the yard were alarmed and came out to greet them.

The governor of Shizuoka Prefecture and the chief of the prefectural police headquarters came together.

Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, the first words the county governor said after getting off the car were:

“Uchiha Minister, are we here yet?”

The old village chief has heard the same question so many times that his ears are almost callused.

No matter whether it was a billionaire president or a high-ranking official, before and after handing over the imperial spirit, they could not wait to ask the same question.

Even the most dull-witted person should understand that the real purpose lies elsewhere.

How could such a poor and remote village attract so many prominent figures? These bigwigs took the opportunity to pay their respects to come to Minister Uchiha.

Although the TV news reported extensively on how important the Supernatural Police Department is and how powerful the Twelve Generals are, they also promoted the Minister Uchiha Senmen.

But as a countryman who had never been exposed to supernatural phenomena, the old village chief knew that Uchiha Senmen was very famous, but it was difficult for him to imagine what kind of person he had become.

But after seeing these luxury cars and the celebrities and dignitaries from Shizuoka Prefecture who came in droves, the old village chief finally had a direct impression.

Xianmen, what a good name.

A deity makes a mountain, not its altitude.Water does not have to be deep.

The extraordinary Uchiha is the immortal and true dragon of the village!

Chapter 366 Chapter 367

Before the celebrities and dignitaries swarmed into the yard, Uchiha Ming had the foresight to move aside.

Uchiha Ming found it a little funny to see Sakaki Namiya being entangled and exhausted by various people taking turns to attack her.

He has always been impatient with those who flatter others and flatter others. Aunt Namiryu has become a scapegoat.

Compared to Sakaki Namiryu, who is in charge of the foundation and has been exposed to the spotlight, Uchiha Ming is like an invisible person on the Internet.

Although many people know that Minister Uchiha has a son, other than that, there is almost no trace of him in either the print media or the Internet.

If any media outlet is reckless and wants to conduct an in-depth investigation, they will be greeted with an FBI Warning!

Of course, there are many people in Tokyo’s upper-class circles who have met Uchiha Ming, but outside of Tokyo, there are only a few wealthy people in Shizuoka Prefecture who can recognize Uchiha Ming.

However, when the governor of Shizuoka Prefecture arrived, Uchiha Ming had no way to stay out of it.

The governor of Shizuoka Prefecture was ushered in with great fanfare. Upon learning that Minister Uchiha had not yet arrived, he first exchanged a few words with Sakaki Namiryu, then glanced around the yard and fell on Uchiha Ming.

Uchiha Ming raised his eyebrows and thought to himself that something was wrong.

The governor of Shizuoka Prefecture left the people gathered around him, walked towards Uchiha Ming, and extended his hand with a smile on his face.

“You must be the son of Minister Uchiha, you are indeed a handsome man.”

After all, he is the governor of a county, which is considered a high-ranking official in this island country. It is not surprising that he knows Uchiha Ming’s appearance and identity.

“You are very kind, sir.”

Uchiha Ming stretched out his hand and clenched it lightly, then withdrew his hand and said lightly.

“What, Minister Uchiha’s son is here too?!”

“Get out of the way! Get out of the way! Let me see!”

The prefectural governor was the most prominent among the many Shizuoka Prefecture celebrities and gentry present at the scene. Seeing him being so humble to a young man, many people immediately whispered to each other.

When the governor of Shizuoka Prefecture revealed Uchiha Ming’s identity, everyone suddenly realized what was going on and looked as if it was a matter of course.

Then they gathered around, with different expressions.

Seeing Uchiha Ming standing there motionless with a distant look on his face, the police chief following behind the governor of Shizuoka Prefecture flashed a hint of displeasure in his eyes.

“Minister Uchiha is a prominent figure from our Shizuoka Prefecture, and he is well-known all over the world. As the prefectural governor, I am deeply honored.”

The governor of Shizuoka Prefecture was shrewd and looked calm, even more enthusiastic.

“As the old saying goes, if you don’t return home when you’re rich, it’s like walking in the night in fine clothes. I really hope that Minister Uchiha can go back to Shizuoka Prefecture more often.”

Although the concept of hometown has become increasingly indifferent due to the process of modernization, the Japanese still value the friendship between fellow villagers. In Tokyo, there are organizations such as the Shizuoka Prefecture People’s Association that connect hometowns and birthplaces.

“I’ll tell my father.”

Uchiha Ming replied indifferently.

“Which family is this daughter from? She looks familiar, could you introduce her to me?”

The county governor looked at Matsudaira Chiyo, who was standing quietly beside Uchiha Ming, appearing particularly intimate.

“Hello, Mr. Governor.”

Chiyo Matsudaira bowed very politely. Her pretty face was delicate and elegant, which made her very likable.

“My name is Chiyo Matsudaira. On January 5th last year, I followed my father to the New Year party at the Kasumi Hall and had the honor of meeting the governor.”

“I see. However, my memory is not good due to my old age. I only remembered it after Ms. Matsudaira reminded me. Ms. Matsudaira’s memory is really excellent.”

The governor of Shizuoka Prefecture looked at the two of them deeply, with an ambiguous look on his face, and said with a smile:

“They are really a perfect match!”

Perhaps he noticed that Uchiha Ming was not very enthusiastic, and the governor of Shizuoka Prefecture did not want to make trouble, so he said a few words and then stepped aside.

Other celebrities and wealthy businessmen in Shizuoka Prefecture had already gathered around eagerly, and as soon as the Shizuoka Governor left, they couldn’t wait to get close to Uchiha Ming and make friends with him.

Sakaki Namiya, who had been surrounded by a crowd of people before, was suddenly left out.

Even Minister Uchiha’s meal substitute has different levels of closeness. A sister-in-law is not as close as a son.

They had previously failed to recognize the value of the gold and jade, and now they could not miss this opportunity.

Since the real boss is not here, it would be nice to be able to make myself familiar to Minister Uchiha’s son.

With Uchiha Ming sharing the firepower with her, Sakaki Namiya felt a lot more relaxed. She stood outside the crowd with a gloating look on her face.

The pressure suddenly shifted to Uchiha Ming.

Uchiha Mingyun was indifferent to the enthusiastic attempts of the dignitaries to make friends with him and just nodded slightly.

It is impossible for a genuine Uchiha to be so good at dancing with the sleeves and get so passionate with someone he meets for the first time.

But even so, these local tyrants don’t care about their face and flatter in every way.

Uchiha Ming had a cold face, frowned, and was a little impatient.

These guys are really ignorant, not as sensible as the governor, they insist on trying to please others.

But you can’t hit a smiling person. Uchiha Ming can’t use the Sharingan to drive them all away.

Fortunately, Uchiha Ming has the beautiful lady Matsudaira Chiyo by his side.

For the well-mannered Miss Matsudaira, this level of social interaction is a piece of cake.

Uchiha Ming was also happy to have some free time, and even had the energy to listen to the private conversations between the governor of Shizuoka Prefecture and the people around him.
