Chapter 1378 The only Bright Spot
As the sun set, watching the fiery red sun gradually sinking, William White couldn't help but feel a little emotional. They all said that the sunset is infinitely beautiful only at dusk, but no one would refuse this beautiful sunset.
"Jiaxin, you see, riding a horse is not that difficult. Besides, if you ride once in a while, you won't become bow-legged."
"Bah, even if it's not bow-legged, you are already old and yellow. If you don't want it anymore, tell people early so as not to be an eyesore in front of you." William White didn't care about the harsh words of the little beauty Jiaxin. He said that there were still some Guilt, but ah, as the bottom line was lowered again and again, William White's mind had long since lost the word guilt.
You see, you can maintain your purity of heart by cheating once, but if you do it often. Besides, purity is really disgusting.
"This year will be a good harvest, but if I get an extra three to five bushels, I won't be happy at all."
Wall Street was turbulent, and Silicon Valley was also bloody. In order to prevent his mood from getting worse, William White took his wife back to his hometown, hoping that the leisurely life on the farm could soothe his increasingly anxious mood.
But why is this harvest so good? The charcoal seller was worried about the price of charcoal and wished for cold weather, while William White was concerned about the price of food and wished for natural disasters. Damn, this really doesn’t stop anywhere.
At any time, the price of food in the United States is not very expensive, whether it is grains or meat. It can be said to be the lowest among developed countries. Without food subsidies, it is estimated that no farmer can survive.
It's fair to say that it was deserved. Who let the southerners lose? If they had won the Civil War, it might have been a different situation.
The grain industry in the United States is not actually agriculture. In a sense, it is more like an industrial and mining enterprise. Due to the extensive use of automated machinery, it is not a big problem if you regard the farm as a factory.
The economic downturn is a foregone conclusion and the number of unemployed people will continue to rise. In this way, people may have to learn to save when consuming.
This is really annoying. The existence of Happy Farm has actually strengthened the application of automation in agriculture. As long as he is willing, everything from corn picking to canning can be done in four hours, and these products can be produced within 48 hours. , it is possible to put it on consumers’ dining tables.
"Husband, will there be a scene like the Great Depression? At that time, it seemed that milk was poured directly into the Mississippi River."
“This is not enough, if it doesn’t work, can’t we still provide benefits?
Roosevelt did the same thing back then. One group of people was responsible for digging the holes, and another group was responsible for filling the holes.
Actually, if World War II hadn't broken out, the United States would have been doomed. "The reason why William White is in a bad mood is precisely because of this. It's not that he is a saint, on the contrary, he doesn't care about the life and death of others.
But, what comes after the Great Depression?
Either there will be a world war, and the whole world will get together and commit suicide. Or a monster like Mustache will be born. He couldn't figure it out right now, how could a bunch of pig-brained people at the Federal Reserve Bank of America dare to bet on everyone's interests.
I hope the world won't get worse. If it really loses control in the end, the world is so big that I won't be able to find a place to live and work in peace and contentment.
It was a rare moment of leisure, and William White did not want to discuss too serious issues. In the final analysis, this is his literary youth disease coming back again. The earth is said to be safe and secure. Since the beginning of written records, there has been no incident that could destroy mankind. Life only lasts a hundred years. If it is so unhappy, there is actually nothing to regret.
"By the way, Jiaxin, how is your sister now? Didn't she cause any more trouble?"
The little beauty Jiaxin rolled her eyes, turned her horse's head, and followed this guy's pace. "What else can there be? By the way, I met my father this time."
"Well, I've never heard of you talking about it. Why, is he planning to make up for your sisters?" William White was very contemptuous of the father of little beauty Jiaxin. Since you abandoned the three of them, mother and daughter, you should stay away now.
When I see someone having a good life, I want to come back and take advantage. This is no longer a scumbag, this has already met the standards of a scumbag.
"Huh, what else can I do? Where was this bastard when my mommy went to help someone else's house?
Okay, let’s not talk about him anymore. The world in Xiangjiang is very bad, but strangely, the situation of 7-11 is very good. Jiaming's franchise stores are also very good, and she now plans to speed up the opening of stores. "
"Ha, is that weird?
I have raised so many elites, do you think they are all freeloaders?
Alas, it’s funny to say that World Mall, which has always been tepid, has seen significant growth in sales recently. I asked around and so did Amazon.
Do you know what these have in common? "
Looking at the confused little beauty Jiaxin, William White was very proud. Women should be stupid. If they know everything, where do they get the pleasure from?
"Why don't you tell me this? I've been confused about this for a long time."
"Actually, there is nothing special. If you look at Japan, you will know that in fact, their convenience stores are developing faster.
The economy is in recession, but the demand for consumption will not disappear. As the single population increases, this consumer group with individuals as the main body will grow rapidly.
As for online shopping, in order to attract more new users, I am basically losing money and making money. "Although William White said this, looking at his proud look, he didn't seem to care about the losses at all.
Cheap is only relative. Because it has opened up the industrial chain, William White's cost is relatively low. If he were not worried about being complained about unfair competition, he would definitely set the price lower.
According to last month’s retail sales data, this year is completely hopeless. It has been more than half a year since Christmas, and the weak data has not been effectively supported. The only thing that can be praised is online shopping.
If their wallets are full, many people are more comfortable going to the mall than staying at their computer and browsing. For some people, shopping is not a simple need, it is a way of life and a ritual.
However, when you are short of money, how to effectively reduce the cost of living is the first thing you need to consider.
Of course, there is a problem here. Spending such a large price is naturally not to subsidize the people. What William White is doing is actually a training program.
Shopping, once you get used to online shopping, you may get stuck in it. If this habit can be maintained for a certain period of time, congratulations, you will eventually buy back a lot of things you don't need, and this is completely contrary to your original intention.
