Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Of course, it doesn’t have to be a salary cut to have such an effect. The increase in the price of other daily necessities will also reduce the proportion of people’s expenditures on services such as pubs. The same is true when faced with slightly more expensive wine.

, a situation where people no longer dare to consume.

But in this case, it can be considered a salary cut...

After all, prices rise, but income remains unchanged. What is the difference between this and a straightforward salary cut? The purchasing power of income, such as wages, and other money decreases, and the actual effect reflected by directly lowering wage standards is really the same.

It's getting more and more sad...

Unemployment, Carter saw it! Salary cut, Carter sees it again now!

The two most common social phenomena during the Great Depression appeared in front of him one after another. This made the haze in Carter's heart worsen again...

Carter, who was born in 1999, had almost no direct experience of life during the Great Depression during his growing up experience. Even though the subprime mortgage crisis occurred in 2008, the impact domestically was not as great as that of the United States. In addition, at that time

That earthquake, for Carter, who was less than ten years old at the time:

Economic crisis? What is that? Can it be eaten? Oh~ I need to donate. Come on, I'll give you 50...

After 2008, China's economic development was like a heifer riding a rocket, suddenly soaring to the sky. Carter, who was in a period of rapid economic development, had more money at his disposal as he grew older.

I just feel that many things are getting cheaper and cheaper. After excluding real estate, KFC, which I felt was extremely high-end when I was in elementary school and wouldn’t even eat it on my birthday, and didn’t even dare to look at it, seems to be becoming more and more ordinary.

When it comes to being hit and killed... Before time travel, KFC? What is that? I really don’t know what to eat anymore, so I only go to fast food restaurants for convenience... If anyone has a birthday treat and goes to KFC, I am guaranteed to be eaten by my friends.

Laughing to death...

Carter, who had no personal experience at all, even knew that in the early 1980s, the U.S. economy would be in a recession, with high unemployment and inflation rates. But in the end, he was not too worried.

On the one hand, he has money, but on the other hand, people who have never experienced pain are always blindly optimistic about the pain that may come. But the scene he saw in front of him made Carter feel a little less optimistic.

It seems that it’s time to change the attitude of people who keep saying they need to prepare some cash to deal with the upcoming crisis, but then turn around and invest the money everywhere, leaving nothing behind.

Even if the stocks of potential companies are very popular, you still have to be able to wait until those stocks are liquidated, right? If you continue like this, if you fall in the early 1980s, you will have a lot of fun...

The most shameful hat for a time traveler, I have to wear it to death~

"Carter, why are you lost in thought again? Come and drink! Then..."

Putting aside electronic screens and the like, the slow-rock bars of today are no different from the pubs of the future. Even without the interference of mobile phones, people at the wine table are more engaged.

They played small games at the wine table, joked with each other, and drank a few glasses of wine while laughing and joking. It didn’t take long for everyone’s faces to become slightly flushed.

A few people stayed in the nightclub until about nine o'clock, and then they left. At this time, Carter was obviously drunk.

It’s true that he likes to drink whiskey and go to folk pubs, but he only orders one glass of wine every time, and never exceeds the limit. He listens to music and drinks. After drinking one glass, he is just tipsy, and it is easy to go back.

Fall asleep quickly after getting home.

If you drink like this, you won't make any progress even if you drink for several years. Under the influence of being full of melancholy and worry about the future, half a bottle of whiskey flowed into his stomach. Although Carter was not broken, he was still shaky in his steps.

I had to be supported by two boys before I could walk back to the hotel.

After helping Carter into the room and throwing him on the bed, the two boys left with some secret joy...

Hey hey hey, drinking too much is good, but drinking to death is the best! Let you live with our goddess... let’s see if you can still do bad things!

Doing bad things? Stop doing it! Stop doing it!

Lying on his back on the bed, Carter sighed uncomfortably. Moderate drinking is good for sleep, but excessive drinking makes it difficult to sleep...

Carter, who was in the excitement of alcohol, couldn't sleep at all. But the drowsy feeling in his head made Carter unable to even raise his hands.

"Carter, I'm going to take a shower first. If you need anything, just call me!"

I don’t know whether it was done intentionally or unintentionally. After Likoris came back from locking the door, she happened to stand beside the bed where Carter was lying and changed her clothes.

"Okay...go ahead..."

Carter shouted weakly, looking at the looming white skin and golden hair in the corner of his eyes, the little brother quietly had the urge to raise his head.

After a while, the sound of pattering water came. The sound like rain beating duckweed made Carter calm down a lot, and he slowly closed his eyes. A somewhat absurd idea suddenly appeared in his mind, which seemed to be in a novel he had read.

, many authors like to write plots in which the protagonist becomes even more excited after hearing the sound of water...

But in my actual experience, this has never happened.

Thinking wildly, Carter closed his eyes...

The sound of water gradually stopped, and Carter, who still couldn't fall asleep, only heard some "tapping" footsteps in his ears, and then...

"Hey, Carter, your ability to drink is so bad! Even my brother is better than you!"

The fragrant wind next to my ears made my ears feel itchy, and a sense of pressure was moving around...

"In front of them during the day, I know there are some things you didn't say. Can you tell me now?"

"What are you talking about? And... just say it nicely, I'm warning you not to play with fire!"

Under Lycoris's teasing, Little Carter's rise has become unstoppable. If it can still be stopped, it will be a sad story...

But the remaining reason still tells Big Carter: Things are not going to be fun like this!!

We haven’t negotiated the price yet, so if it’s just that, we still don’t know what the price will be in the future!

"Hehe, what's wrong?"

Seeing Carter's somewhat embarrassed reaction, Lycoris immediately increased her efforts. But at the same time, she did not forget the important matters related to her future:

"You said you suggested that we go to college, and that it would be difficult to find a job next year. You...did you know any news? From that friend in New York..."

"You know a little bit, or maybe we people are not optimistic about the future... Also, put your legs down for me! I'm not a good person, let me tell you!"

Damn, if that’s what you want, you’d better report the numbers quickly!

It's better to drive up prices than to be cheated...

"hey-hey..."
