Rebirth 79: I opened a bank in the United States

Chapter 50 Going Home and Reincarnation

By the time Carter drove the Mustang into Georgia, it was already the end of August.On the afternoon of August 24, Carter drove Melis back to Douglas.

Compared with the obscurity before the departure, Carter's return this time made the small town of Douglas look much more lively.Carter's trip around the United States, after nearly two months of person-to-person transmission, is now well known in Douglas.

"Hey, Carter! You're back?! Not fascinated by the big city, are you?"

"Welcome home, Carter!"

"Is New York fun?"

Questions like these never stopped from the time Carter went to the city until he returned home.Giggling and perfunctory the neighbors who were full of thirst for knowledge, Carter didn't even bother to take a shower after returning home.After saying hello to Jenny and saying "I'm back", I went straight up to the second floor and threw myself on the bed.

On the contrary, Melis was very excited to see her mother, and she showed Jenny what she had gained from this trip one by one like offering treasures.Where did I buy this dress, what is the price of this dress, the chattering sound continued to spread to the second floor, and Carter was so angry that he could only turn on the air conditioner while covering his head with the quilt.

"Carter, get up. Dinner is almost ready, and Anna is here. Get up quickly, and go to bed at night after eating."

"No coming!"

In a daze, Carter was woken up.He turned his head and looked out the window blankly, as if he wanted to use the sunlight to judge the time, but the summer sunlight obviously didn't do much, and the outside was still bright.

"Anna, how was your vacation with Jenny?"

After simply going to the bathroom to wash his face, Carter walked down, looked at Anna who was both familiar and unfamiliar, and greeted with a smile.

Anna has already graduated. Originally, Carter also asked her if she wanted to go out with him and treat it as a graduation trip, but in order to accompany her boyfriend, Anna refused.There were not many opportunities to get along with each other, and it will only become less and less from now on.

"It's not bad. Joey and I both found jobs. We worked as a cashier in the supermarket in the city center, and he worked as a warehouse manager in the warehouse. Also, thank you for the gift you brought me, but you seem to have forgotten about Joey. .”

"You are not married yet. If you want me to bring him a gift, he has to be my brother-in-law first."

Carter rolled his eyes, this man with a love brain and a man of science and technology are really the same weird species, so he can't listen to their words.Not to mention that he is not a brother-in-law, but really, Carter doesn't want to bring him.He didn't have a good impression of Joey.

Don't talk about the grievances and grievances when he was little Blake, just look at the present, you can't say that he didn't find the job he was looking for, but there is really no difference between the job in the supermarket and the job he didn't find.There are usually two kinds of staff in supermarkets or convenience stores in the United States, one is elderly aunts, and the other is young students who work part-time.Few ambitious young people would treat supermarket work as a full-time job.

But there is no need to say this, I am already a little dissatisfied after not seeing Jenny:
"Carter is right. You are only in a relationship now. How can you ask your brother to give him a gift during a relationship. I haven't seen him give anything to Carter or Meili."

"Mom! It's not that we just left school, and we don't have any money on us. When Joey makes money, how can he forget you?!"

When she heard that the old lady was dissatisfied with her boyfriend, Anna couldn't care less about looking for Carter, so she quickly posted it, acting like a baby while helping to serve the dishes.

At the scene before him, Carter was quite surprised at first, but now he is used to it.At the very beginning, under the influence of those future intellectuals, Carter always thought that American families were very independent. When a child reached the age of 18, he was let out to be independent, regardless of it, or his daughter completely ignored her parents after she got married.
It is only after actual contact that I know that this is all nonsense.It is true that in the United States, family independence is much higher than in China, but it is by no means isolated from each other.Especially before the daughter is married, the man doesn't move around from time to time, so he wants to abduct his daughter so easily?Want peach!
In terms of education for children, it is actually similar to China.The so-called 18-year-old independence is just a result of different cultures and social spheres.For example, in the United States, as long as it is not employed full-time, it is not considered child labor. Even if you find a 14-year-old child to work part-time for yourself, it is not illegal.In addition, schools in the United States close early, and basic prices are not high, so American children who are in a panic and have no money in their pockets are tempted.

Going to supermarkets, convenience stores and other places to do part-time jobs and earn pocket money has become the norm in American society.And because of differences in law and culture, American children start working part-time at an earlier age than in China, which makes them seem very independent.In fact, don't many children in China also work part-time during college?It's just that before college, they can't and don't have time to do part-time jobs.

The so-called independence at the age of 18 is nothing more than pocket money independence.When it comes to tuition, rent and other big expenses, I still have to rely on my family to help.Of course, except for special cases like Carter.
"Hmph, then I'll just wait and see how he behaves. He has no sincerity at all, just trying to trick my daughter from the Black family, he's so beautiful!"

Jenny snorted arrogantly, even though she knew that to Anna, her mother's objection was of little significance.She will do what she should and will do.

After the noisy but warm dinner, Carter had no idea of ​​going out.After talking with a few women at home, he went back to the bedroom early and continued to catch up on sleep.

After dawn the next day, facing the rising sun, Carter drove Anna to work in the supermarket first, and then went to the bank.After two months away, Carter really misses his wooden chair with foam cushions.

"Carter, you're here. I heard you're back yesterday. Did you have a good trip?"

Goodman, who had been prepared for a long time, stood at the gate of the bank. When he saw Douglas's only Mustang approaching, he hurried up to meet it.

"It's not bad. I found a few valuable targets. I'll give you the list later, and you can keep an eye on it for me. By the way, how has the bank been in the past two months? Is it still stable?"

Walking to the stairs familiarly, Carter said as he walked.

"It is generally stable, but the probability of bad debts has increased. Exxon in the south of the city borrowed 3000 US dollars two years ago, and it was due three days ago, but the money has not been recovered until now. Marlins in the west of the city also has A $2000 loan, due next week, looks like it's going to go wrong."

"Is Exxon the one who owns the farm? $3000 shouldn't be so embarrassing, I remember he has a lot of tractors and so on, can't he just sell a few of them and pay them back?"

Pushing open the office door, Carter felt a little bad.The increase in the bad debt rate was foreseen by Carter.Foreseeable is predictable, one's own money has been hacked, it is still annoying.

"I thought so too, and I went to him personally. It's strange to say that there is a tractor company called Vickers. I don't know what's going on recently. Brand new tractors are selling faster than second-hand ones. Yes. Exxon also wants to sell a few tractors to repay the debt, but now no one wants him, but he is willing to directly use the tractor to repay the debt, but this thing Carter, what's wrong with you? Why do you have such a strange face?!"
