Lisco's American Life

Chapter 26 Tricky Brothers

After lunch, Meghan drove to her aunt's house in the town to greet her. She did not ask Lisko to go with her. In the United States, until the eve of the wedding, the woman generally would not let the man visit her home.

, this is a fast-paced society, and meeting parents when the man and woman are still getting along is a bit too formal.

Autumn has passed, and winter is slowly coming. Lisko put on a windbreaker and went to the pasture for a walk.

Mag is now growing slowly and looks majestic. It has shiny black and silver hair. Recently, Lisko has been deliberately feeding some deli beef.

Lisko held Mag's hand and controlled its desire to run around. The cowboys were still grazing. The rye in the wheat field had been growing for two months. The wheat seedlings were swaying in the wind. Rye is usually planted in September every year.

Harvested in May of the following year, rye straw has many uses. Generally, the use with high economic value is sold to paper mills. The paper made from this straw is smooth and elastic. It can also be used to make roofs, weave straw mats, and make cattle.

of feed.

The lake is still like a piece of emerald, standing in the middle of the ranch. When Lisko took over the ranch, he arranged for a rooster to release some fry. These fish are usually eaten by Lisko himself and have no economic value, because people in the United States do not eat freshwater fish.

They are used to eating sea fish. From time to time, some ospreys and waterfowl stay on the lake looking for food.

The harvest of lavender has been completed for a long time. Lisko arranged to continue planting lavender. The economic benefits last time were very good, so the cowboys quickly dealt with it. The seeds have been planted and the automatic irrigation machines in the pasture are also working. Lisko discovered

Farmers in the United States are so happy. They have machines for every job, which greatly reduces labor and fatigue.

Lisko walked to the cowboys' dormitory, where Rooster and Colt were looking sad.

"What? Lost the money?" Lisko tied Mag to the pillar at the door, so that it would go to the stable to tease the horse without knowing where it was, and it would be finished if the horse kicked it down.

"No, the harvest in Bo Ranch is not good this year. Rooster and I are worried that we will go bankrupt in the future. The past few years have not been good. The government is going to raise those damn taxes again," Colt complained.

Bo is different from Lisko. The main purpose of Lisko Ranch is to provide convenience for his own life, and not to let his ancestral property go to waste. He doesn't plan to make much money from it, but also adds money to it from time to time to maintain it. Bo's daily necessities are all.

I come from a pasture. If the pasture is not profitable, it will really suffer from the northwest wind.

"We want to subsidize Bo, but we don't have any money. Colt has just started working and his salary is not high. I have also squandered all my salary." Rooster also frowned worriedly.

The habit of Americans is not to save money. This is the same as the survival strategy of various capitalists in the United States. To live in this world, you must enjoy yourself in time and consume all your money so that the economy can flow. Of course, this flow will flow into the hands of the capitalists.

Gone inside.

Therefore, their family's ability to resist risks is very poor. If someone in the family is sick or needs a big expense, it is usually a loan. When your income cannot keep up with the amount of repayment that the bank requires, you will go bankrupt. Many newly developed businesses

The same is true for people. Often when companies have problems, they lose all their money and end up living on the streets. Therefore, the homeless people on the streets in the United States should not be underestimated. Maybe they were the leaders of large companies with hundreds of millions of dollars before.

Lisko gave them some advice, "You can open up new sources of funds and do some side businesses."

"We don't know anything, we only know our own jobs." Rooster took a sip of wine helplessly.

"Do you know how to surf the Internet?" Lisko thought for a while and asked.

"Yes. Who doesn't know how to use the Internet nowadays? We are not old timers either."

"Do you know the website YouTube? Liske asked mysteriously.

"I know, it's a video sharing website, I've seen videos on it." Colt replied.

"YouTube is the world's largest video-sharing website. It was founded in February 2005 by three former PayPal employees. Users can upload, browse and share videos on YouTube. It is headquartered in San Bruno, California. It uses Adobe Flash Video and

HTML5 technology displays user-generated video content, including: movie clips, TV shorts, music videos, as well as amateur content, such as video blogs, short original videos, and educational videos." Liske introduced to them.

"What does that have to do with us making money?" Rooster didn't understand.

"You two brothers can make some funny prank videos and upload them. Each video can be up to five minutes. It mainly shows the elder brother playing tricks on the younger brother, and the younger brother is being pranked in a funny way. The next episode will be about the younger brother pranking the elder brother, and the older brother is retaliated miserably.

It seems that your revenue mainly comes from the advertising revenue of video websites. As long as someone watches your video, you will get a share of the advertising. When you have more fans later, you can accept the merchant's products to advertise. If you do well, you will

You can earn millions a year." Lisko explained to them that in his previous life, he had seen a video of British brothers playing pranks on each other. Their popularity was only average, and they could not stand out in the comedy category. They were just casual.

With just a few million a year, the two brothers quit their jobs and concentrated on making videos. I heard later that they even published a book, and they really gained both fame and fortune.

Lisko feels that Rooster and Colt can completely imitate them. Of course, they are original now, and there is no need for technical skills to do this. No bloggers have discovered business opportunities yet, and the website is in urgent need of bloggers uploading content to fill the website, so it is definitely

Will receive resource support.

"I have a DV that I can lend to you to try. It's very convenient for you to do it. You just need to think about how to trick each video, and the reactions in the video should be as real as possible. If there is a performance element, it may not be popular.

stand up."

"Then let's give it a try?" Colt's eyes lit up. He quite liked this and had a fun-loving personality.

Rooster didn't know how to proceed, "How do we think about our first trick?"

Lisko joined in the fun and came up with ideas, not afraid of big troubles. "It's the first time Colt will prank you. The trick is to secretly put two Viagra in the rooster's wine bottle. The rooster has to go to town in a hurry, and then take this photo."

The reaction of the rooster and the looks of passers-by along the way must be very interesting, but you must remember to do it naturally, treat the DV as a decoration, and treat all reactions as a normal prank."

"Okay, let's do it." Colt was very interested. It didn't matter whether he made money or not. He liked this way of playing.

Rooster objected on one side, but with two votes to one, his reaction was not that important.

Lisko set a time and secretly discussed it with Colt in private, and the three of them broke up. They planned to attack when Rooster relaxed his guard. Everything was for the sake of video quality, Lisko thought while holding Mag.
