Beauty Comprehensive 1999

Chapter 10 The Flea Market
At the beginning of June in Jinzhou, the temperature has already entered the midsummer climate compared with many northern places in the northern hemisphere.

The sun at ten o'clock in the morning had become scorching hot. When he walked out of a store in Los Angeles' Chinatown, the contrast between the air-conditioning in the room and the outside environment made him sweat a little on the back of his neck.

This is caused by both the weather and the distress of bleeding from my wallet.

Of course, he was not sweating like everyone else, it was because of his improved physical fitness and the application of a little bit of extraordinary power.

Xie Jiahao, who had been practicing at home for two days, had initially adapted to the changes brought about by his superhuman physique, and planned to come out during the day to buy a batch of missing materials and store them at home.

As for the evening, he didn't plan to go out until the limelight subsided.

"It's so expensive!"

Wiping the sweat from his forehead with a handkerchief, Xie Zihao, who seldom swears, couldn't help but secretly scold these profiteers who are considered to be his compatriots. You must know that he brought a full thousand pounds today. There was a huge sum of money left over, but after buying a batch of spices and medicinal materials in several stores, the cash shrank by more than half.

Feeling sorry for his shriveled wallet, he carried a wooden box on his back, carrying bags containing bottles and cans, and walked towards the street not far opposite.

There are quite a lot of people there, and there are rows of stalls on the spacious small square. Many people are sweating profusely, choosing suitable products among them regardless of the heat.

Apparently this is a flea market.

In the White Eagle Federation, this kind of flea market selling second-hand goods is very common, some of which are spontaneously held by residents at their doorsteps, and there are also official activities organized by the government, communities, or certain associations.

Don't just think that only Beiping has the Pan's market. In fact, there are countless such second-hand goods markets abroad, and some of the larger ones are even larger than the Pan's market.

"There are still a lot of people!"

Xie Zihao, who has been here several times, knows that most of these people are foreign tourists. If they are locals, they will definitely choose to go out for a stroll after the sun goes down in the cool evening.

But if he came at that time, he would be physically comfortable, but he would have to go back at night, because he hadn’t bought a car for school, so he didn’t come here by car, whether he took the subway, bus or taxi home after nightfall So safe.

Xie Zihao couldn't help sighing in his heart, thinking of his previous life before the rise of the Internet age, in the third world outside the federation, people always imagined that the powerful imperialist country was not where everyone dressed brightly, drove luxury cars, drank Drinking champagne and red wine, eating steak and lobster, is life enviable?

In fact, regardless of the United States in the previous life, in this world, according to the statistics of a federal agency, the number of unemployed people in the federal territory is as high as 2000 million, which is infinitely close to one-tenth of the total population.

And Xie Zihao himself belongs to the unemployed youth who are waiting for work at home.

With the memory of his original body, he knew that this statistic was relatively accurate.

Because even if you exclude those Beat Generations who rely on family support and don’t want to go out to work, and those who have temporarily lost their jobs but have not found new ones, the remaining unemployed population is more than 500 million, and more than [-]% of them It is a population of African descent who is idle and doing nothing but waiting for government relief.

The number of people who really lost their lives and became homeless due to various reasons is actually only a few hundred thousand.

"It's strange that I have to be seen by others!"

Xie Zihao sighed in his heart. This series of figures is shocking in the eyes of relevant scholars, and it is also true for the government, especially the more than 500 million non-productive African population, which has led to frequent crimes in various regions all the year round. For a federation with only 4000 million people, it is definitely a huge unstable factor and a huge financial burden.

"How much taxation will it bring to the Federation and how much economic growth will it promote if these idlers can be turned into hard-working workers?"

This kind of phenomenon was unimaginable in Xie Zihao's previous life, because even if there were rice worms in his era, it was a minority. Buy a house, don't invest, don't get married, and don't become a drag on the country like those African-American populations.

The main reason is that the industrious Chinese people have not had the habit of developing on the African prairie since ancient times. Although there are some dross in the traditional culture headed by Confucianism and Taoism, it advocates that God rewards hard work and self-sufficiency, and opposes eating without work. Painting cakes to satisfy hunger has always been a moral concept advocated by people.

Of course, it is impossible for everyone to do it. In the 21st century, it seems that all the bosses have learned how to draw cakes.

"It's a pity not to mention those scholars in the Federation, even the government has nothing to do with these African-Americans!"

The more than 1000 million African-Americans who have nothing to do all day long are a big problem for the White Eagle Federation. If these unstable factors are not dealt with, it will be a huge financial burden for the government every year; if it is dealt with, it will cost a lot The price is not necessarily successful.

And with the lessons learned from the big incident in Los Angeles in 92, in order not to trigger riots, the government could only adopt a policy of maintaining stability, and made certain compromises in certain aspects. The banner of equal rights wantonly takes advantage of it, and is best at moral kidnapping and racial and racial discrimination.

Xie Zihao also understood the choices made by those politicians. Yuan himself was one of those who witnessed the Los Angeles riots that shocked the world!

Yuan was only in his teens at that time, and Xie’s shop became a victim of zero-dollar purchases. Many people around him were injured or even died because of the riot, so he always hated Black Lives Matter. and hostile eyes.

Strictly speaking, if it weren't for the heavy losses caused by the robbery of the Black Lives Matter, the original parents would not have given up their restaurant business, rented out the shop, and then engaged in the transportation business, only to encounter the prevailing pressure from the Federation. Van robbers.Although the husband and wife did not resist in order to survive, they were both tortured and killed by the robbers because of their Asian relationship.

How could the original Xie Zihao not hate those puppets?

Even Xie Zihao's thoughts changed after time travel.

In addition to the bad things above, after knowing it personally, Xie Zihao also understood that imperialist capitalist countries like the White Eagle Federation are not as beautiful as some people in the previous life imagined. The air is sweet, and everyone has a new life. Clothes and new shoes to wear.

In fact, according to the statistics of a boring organization, the people of the White Eagle Federation who use more than ten second-hand items each year account for more than 60.00% of the total population, and the number of people who buy cheap second-hand goods all year round is more than [-]% of the total population.

The statistics here are for second-hand clothing, home furnishing, daily necessities, electrical appliances and other categories, and have not included second-hand cars, second-hand jewelry and other valuables. If we want to calculate all of them, it is estimated that the proportion of the number of people who use second-hand items in the Federation will be even larger. Amplitude rises.

Although Xie Zihao, who traveled over here, didn't wear any second-hand clothes, and although his original parents didn't spoil him too much, they didn't lack everything that should be in life. His family background was considered good, so there was no need to go to Buy second-hand clothes.

After his original parents passed away three years ago, he rarely bought new clothes except for school uniforms, and his old clothes were enough to wear.

But around the living environment, many people will choose to buy second-hand goods.

No other, cheap ears.
