147. New entertainment industry

After discussing everything, Aoto asked Unohana if she could go and learn how to operate on normal people.

"I haven't tried it yet, but I want to give it a try," Unohana replied. Aoto was pleased that she was willing to take on the responsibility of being a good medical doctor in the normal world if her techniques proved effective.

"Shikuro, take her to the school and let her go through the books for once," Aoto instructed. Shikuro nodded and led Unohana away. Urahara quickly became engrossed in the new library but also mentioned that he had obligations to work later, to which he agreed but seemed a bit irritated, eliciting laughter from everyone.

"System, give me food recipes from around the world of my previous world."

Here you go, host.

In the next moment, there was a huge pile of books stacked in front of him. The first thing he needed to do was turn Konoha into a culinary hub. Food was one of the most basic necessities of life, and if it could be diversified, it would be a huge boost to Konoha's economy.

Japanese food was great, but being an American, he still had a fondness for American food, French cuisine, and various other types of Asian dishes he missed. Offering a variety of cuisines would undoubtedly enhance his culinary experience and perhaps even spread across the world, making it a better place.

Once this was accomplished, the next task was to improve the roads. The Fire Nation lacked proper roads, and this was true for the entire world. While roads existed, they were poorly maintained, and transportation was considered of minimal importance.

Aoto even suspected that this was a ploy by the shinobi to make regular people foot the bill for transport. However, before building roads, he needed to consult with the Hokage. He aimed to begin by improving the roads within Konoha itself and then extend the effort to the entire nation, provided he received the green light.

And alongside the roads came mobile communication. Aoto understood that long-distance communication was still years away, but he could start with short-distance radio within Konoha, allowing people to call each other, and perhaps even introduce cable lines to homes.

He wasn't well-versed in the entire technology and intricacies behind this form of communication at a deep level, so he could always refer to books. With these thoughts in mind, he discussed the matter with Urahara, who immediately agreed.

If you spot this tale on Amazon, know that it has been stolen. Report the violation.

"We'll have to establish a company for that," Urahara suggested as his first idea, to which Aoto readily concurred. He then allocated some funds to acquire books on communication. The communication in this world would be based on more conventional methods rather than the unconventional ways of the Soul Society.

Both Aoto and Urahara went through the books once and got the general gist. For mobile communication they needed towers around Konoha and for cable communication they need an office. Internet cable lines had already been set up so it would be much easier to expand on that.

Edward also joined this discussion as anything innovative piqued his interest.

For the moment, these were the two main things that Aoto needed to work on. These would yield quite good results for him and give me a status that would be beyond what they were facing at the moment.

"Zimmer, here there are no movies or any kinds of series being made. I want you to handle the starting part. Can you do this?"

"Huh? You mean there are no motion pictures as well?"

"Well, there are cameras here and there but never used for entertainment in a very broad way. You can kick start it, and once you do, you can then fall back to music." Zimmer got into deep thought. He didn't have much idea of producing a series, much less kick-starting such a huge thing in this world, but then again, this place was new and he could gain experience in this way too while eventually falling back to music again.

"But I would need money to start the whole process," Zimmer said.

"Don't think too much about the money part. I will sponsor the whole thing and you can have 30% of the profits while I will get to keep 70%," Aoto said. Zimmer nodded, as 30% would be more than fine with him since he wasn't paying for a single bit.

Aoto also spoke of how they would need to set up a hall where they could show the movie. They would have to start from there. Aoto and Zimmer spoke a lot about this and he made a list of what he would have to do to start the process.

It was a long talk and thus took a lot of time. Zimmer somehow wasn't interested in magic and felt like power wasn't something he craved for, which was a bit weird, but he could also understand that maybe it was because of this he was such a great music composer, because he never cared about power.

While this was happening, Unoahana showed up at the school with Shikuro as she was introduced to the principal of the school.

"She is a doctor?" The principal asked. Her low and mellow voice made the principal have butterflies in his stomach, but he reined in his thoughts. Unohana went through the books and replied.

"Can I go and see the basic medical facilities provided to the ninjas?"

Shikuro hesitated a bit and then agreed to take her to the hospital. He hesitated because the medical wing of Konoha was a huge secret when it came to this world. No other medical facility of any village could even come close to their level. Thanks to Tsunade, who had helped their village a lot.

Though she was absent now, it didn't mean her shared knowledge had vanished and thus bringing a person who was an outsider could receive some flak, but she could definitely watch the basic facility and see if her abilities work on injured people.
