Chapter 571: Rabbit Gold is Hard to Earn

On a large plantation in southeastern Australia.

David, the owner of the plantation, is negotiating this year's nut prices with nut buyers from China.

"Mr. Wang, this price is too low. You're pushing the price too hard!"

David looked at the profiteer in front of him with great anger.

A few years ago the price of nuts was very good.

The price per ton can reach 8000 rabbit gold.

At the beginning, I was attracted by the market trend of nuts, so I invested a large amount of money in nut planting.

People in China love to eat nuts. China is the world's largest consumer of nuts, consuming almost 95% of the world's nuts.

Because they love to eat nuts, the price of nuts once skyrocketed, allowing nut plantation owners like them to make a lot of money.

But in recent years, the market of nuts has been getting worse and worse, and the prices have been getting lower and lower. Last year, the price fell below 5000 gold per ton.

This year, these unscrupulous merchants actually quoted a price of less than 4000 rabbit gold. The price dropped so much that David felt very angry.

"David, we are old friends too."

“We have had good cooperation over the past few years.”

“The price I always give you is the highest price in the market because your nuts are of very good quality.”

“I can say that no one can offer a higher price than me!”

Wang Hao took a sip of tea, looked at David in front of him, and said with a smile.

As a nut merchant, he knows the global nut production, quality, price, consumption, etc.

The domestic consumption of nuts is indeed very large and has been increasing year by year.

Over the years, the folks have lived a better and more affluent life, and without any burdens, their consumption capacity has been completely released.

It would be terrifying if a huge population of 15 billion started to consume boldly.

In the field of fruits and snacks alone, 98% of the world's watermelons, durians, mangosteens and cherries are eaten by fellow villagers.

In addition, there are countless people whose consumption accounts for more than 90%.

The huge market of 15 billion people has explosive spending power, driving the world's economy to revolve around this huge market.

My fellow villagers love to eat watermelon, and the areas around the world that are most suitable for growing watermelon have become watermelon producing areas.

My fellow villagers love to eat cherries. There are cherry plantations everywhere in South America, and all the best cherries in the world are sold to my fellow villagers.

My fellow villagers love to eat nuts. From Africa to Southeast Asia, from Australia to America, nuts are planted almost everywhere where nuts can be grown.

The whole world revolves around this huge market, and everyone wants to make money from the red rabbit gold in the hands of their fellow villagers.

After hearing Wang Hao's words, David fell silent.

In fact, he knew very well in his heart that the reason why the price of nuts has been falling year after year is because the output is increasing.

It's not just Australia that is growing nuts on a large scale; nuts are grown anywhere in the world that is suitable for growing nuts.

The scale is getting bigger and bigger, the output is increasing dramatically year by year, and many regions have export subsidies to lower the price, so the price of nuts is getting lower and lower.

This is determined by the market.

"Okay, then I'll pay you the price!"

After thinking for a long time, David finally agreed to Wang Hao's offer because he knew that this was indeed the highest price.

"OK!"

Seeing that the other party agreed, Wang Hao smiled and began to sign the agreement with the other party.

"Mr. Wang, it's becoming increasingly difficult to earn your rabbit gold."

After signing the contract, David couldn't help but sigh and shake his head.

He was speaking from his heart, ever since Rabbit Gold became the universal currency, it has been appreciating in value and becoming increasingly difficult to earn.

In the past, Australia could earn foreign exchange by exporting iron ore, copper ore, beef, mutton, oil, chemical products, etc.

But now these areas have been hit hard and are facing severe competition.

Not to mention iron ore and copper mines, China is now the world's largest exporter of steel and copper products.

Beef and mutton are facing competition from all over the world. Regions such as America, Africa, Europe, and Central Asia are all trying to find ways to export beef and mutton.

Not to mention petroleum, chemical products and the like, they are basically out of business.

Under these factors, it is becoming increasingly difficult to earn money.

But the number of places where rabbit gold is used has increased rather than decreased.

Buying anti-gravity aircraft, virtual machines, virtual world products, industrial products, etc. all requires money.

Especially anti-gravity aircraft, virtual machines and virtual world products, which are the basic needs that even ordinary people cannot do without, and all of these require rabbit gold to purchase.

One sells basic agricultural products and the other sells industrial products. With the huge gap between the two, the situation is naturally getting worse and worse.

The most direct reaction is that the prices of anti-gravity aircraft and virtual machines have continued to rise.

The anti-gravity aircraft I bought four or five years ago is now sold at a price that is 40% to 50% higher than it was four or five years ago. Can you believe it?
The prices of second-hand virtual machines have also been skyrocketing because the market demand is very strong.

Many people cannot afford to buy new virtual machines and can only choose to buy second-hand virtual machines. However, the price of virtual machines has been rising year by year.

It’s not that the factory price of virtual machines is rising.

But after arriving in Australia, due to the appreciation of the gold, the price has been rising after being converted into local currency and sold.

The price of first-hand virtual machines is getting more and more expensive, so people can only choose to buy second-hand virtual machines.

Otherwise, it is fine as long as it does not affect the usage.

Rabbit gold continues to appreciate in value, and there is an urgent need for rabbit gold in Australia, so the price is kept very low.

David was still willing to sell the nuts in his hand because the other party gave him red rabbit gold.

Park Sung-hwan's home in Peninsula.

"Mr. Park, I heard that you still have some rabbit gold. Would you mind exchanging some for me?"

"I am willing to exchange the rabbit gold in your hand at a price 2% higher than the market exchange rate?"

Lee Ji-jae personally found Park Sung-hwan and wanted to exchange some rabbit gold.

"I'm so sorry, someone has come over and exchanged all the rabbit gold I have for 3% higher than the market exchange rate!"

Park Sung-hwan looked at the person in front of him and said helplessly.

"Nothing at all?"

"You can give me a few thousand at least."

When Li Zhizai heard this, he was immediately disappointed, but thinking that his child was studying abroad in China and urgently needed money, he could only continue speaking.

"There really aren't any more!"

Park Sung-hwan shook his head helplessly.

After hearing this, Li Zhizai could only leave helplessly and wait for him to leave.

Park Sung-hwan's wife, Lee Ji-hyun, couldn't help but say, "More and more people have come to us to exchange for Rabbit Gold recently. The exchange rate on the black market is already much higher!"

"Don't worry, it will only get higher!"

Park Sung-hwan said confidently: "More than a decade ago, 1 Rabbit Gold could be exchanged for 200 local currencies, but now 1 Rabbit Gold can be exchanged for 3000 local currencies, which has appreciated more than ten times."

"The money I earned from working in Shenzhou over the years has never been exchanged. This appreciation alone has made us a lot of money."

"That's right. Fortunately, I listened to you." Li Zhixian nodded and said, "Otherwise, we would have suffered a great loss!"

"Ugh!"

"Our economy is getting worse and worse. Exports continue to be sluggish, and we are heavily dependent on exports and imports. If exports are not good, our economy will not be good."

"Electronics, shipbuilding, mobile phones, and steel have all stopped production. The economy is getting worse day by day. People even have trouble getting enough food."

"In China next door, however, the economy is booming. Anti-gravity aircraft, virtual machines, virtual world industries, biopharmaceuticals, interstellar mining, energy technology, etc. are developing rapidly. Even the living standards of ordinary people are already very high."

"I have been working in China over the years and I feel deeply that their living standards are getting higher and higher."

Park Sung-hwan sighed helplessly. Deep down, he naturally hoped that the economy of his hometown would develop and that everyone could live a better life.

But the reality is that now even eating has become a problem for everyone.

This is not an exaggeration, but eating has really become a problem.

"you do not say!"

"In the past, when autumn and winter came, we would buy dozens or even hundreds of kilograms of cabbage to make kimchi."

"Now many people can no longer afford to make kimchi, the price of kimchi has risen, and too many people are unemployed."

"Our family is fine. You have a way to go to Shenzhou to work and earn money, and you can live a good life. But other families are having a hard time."

"Last time I gave some cabbages to my neighbor, she was so moved that she cried."

"They said they haven't made kimchi in a long time, and these cabbages are perfect for making kimchi."

Li Zhixian nodded and said.

"Alas, we can't afford kimchi, but here in Shenzhou."

"I saw many people feeding the cabbage to pigs. They had so much cabbage that they couldn't eat it all and had to feed it to the pigs."

When Park Sung-hwan heard this, he recalled the scenes he saw when he was working in Shenzhou doing decoration.

China is a vast country with abundant resources, and now they can purchase goods from all over the world. As a result, many vegetables grown on local farms cannot be eaten up, and no one wants to buy them even if they are sold.

So they could only feed these vegetables to pigs.

"And they are now migrating to the Central Plains Galaxy on a large scale. Here in the Central Plains Galaxy, they have extremely rich and fertile land."

"That's true. We don't have to worry about food and drink. The resources are so abundant."

"Our country is too small, with a large population and too little land. It is difficult to feed ourselves with our own land."

"It would be nice if we also had a planet of life of our own."

Park Sung-hwan couldn't help but shake his head after saying this.

Just think about it this way, it is impossible to achieve.

"My child is about to graduate from college. Can you help him find a job in Shenzhou?"

Li Zhixian thought for a moment and said, "It's difficult!"

"Now the management in all aspects is becoming more and more strict. We can only go to Shenzhou to work secretly and pretend to be locals."

"We can't let our children follow us to Shenzhou to do decoration and construction, right?"

Park Sung-hwan thought about it and shook his head.

If you don't go to work in China, finding a job in your hometown is harder than climbing to the sky. The only way is to take the civil service exam, but the competition is too fierce.

It would be great if I could find a job in China.

Nowadays in Shenzhou, as long as you work in a company, it is easy to earn at least hundreds of thousands of rabbit gold a year. If you bring back hundreds of thousands of rabbit gold, it is enough to live a very good and affluent life.

But it is very difficult to work in China, and it is basically impossible to get a work visa.

If you can get a work visa, it is easy to find a job in China.

They immigrated to the Central Plains Galaxy in large numbers, and coupled with the aging population, many jobs were vacant locally, which were easily found.

This is also the reason why many people choose to study abroad in China, because if you study abroad in China, it will be much easier to stay and work locally.

It is easy to find a job, the employment prospects are good and the income is high, which naturally attracts many people to study abroad in China.

Li Zhizai, who just came to him to exchange money, has a son who goes to study abroad in China, and now the whole family is gritting their teeth to support him.

He also hopes that his son can find a local girlfriend in Shenzhou so that he can stay in Shenzhou forever.

In the future, future generations will be able to obtain household registration in China and live a happy life.

"What should I do?"

“It’s hard to find jobs in our area, and the wages for those who do find jobs are very low.”

"It's better to work in Shenzhou."

Li Zhixian said with a frown.

"I know that, but it's getting harder and harder to work in Shenzhou now."

"Even now I can only work secretly for half a year a year."

Park Sung-hwan sighed helplessly. It is very difficult to work in Shenzhou now, let alone let his son work in a company in Shenzhou openly.

“If only they could relax the restrictions on work!”

Park Sung-hwan sighed helplessly.

In a European steel plant, Thomas is working hard in the high temperature.

He cherishes this hard-earned job opportunity very much.

Although the salary is not high, or even very low, Thomas still cherishes it very much, because with such a job, at least his family will not go hungry and will have money to buy bread and milk.

He didn't care about anything else. He knew that the most important things for his family now were bread and milk.

"Everyone stop what you are doing!"

"Come with me!"

"Someone is here to cause trouble, to make us lose our jobs, to leave us without bread and milk!"

At this time, the supervisor came in and said very angrily.

When everyone heard this, they immediately stopped what they were doing, took their tools and followed the supervisor to the factory gate.

At this moment, a large crowd has gathered at the gate.

They angrily held up various signs, demanding that the steel mill must stop operations immediately, on the grounds that the steel mill caused serious pollution, and that the wages paid to employees were too low and that they were required to work overtime.

Seeing that they were about to rush in, Thomas and others finally hurried over, waving the tools in their hands continuously, temporarily blocking the crowd.

"We are helping you, helping you fight for your own interests. Why don't you stand on my side?"

Someone pointed at Thomas' nose and said angrily.

"help me?"

“Are you paying me?”

"Will you give me bread and milk?"

When Thomas heard this, he quickly asked back.

"As long as we all unite together, they will have to give you a raise, increase your benefits, and give you more time to rest."

“We are fighting for your welfare.”

The other party continued.

"No!"

"You are making trouble!"

"We really need a job like this because my family is hungry and they need bread and milk."

Thomas shook his head firmly.

"But if you sell yourselves so cheaply, it will only lower everyone's wages and make everyone's life more difficult."

"We have worked hard for decades, are we going to go back to the way things were decades ago?"

The other party said again.

"So do you think there's any way to solve this?"

"If you can give us bread and milk, I will follow you now."

Thomas said.

"Don't just focus on the bread and milk in front of you, think about the long term."

"Yes, we are fighting for everyone's interests. The steel mills pollute too much, the working hours are too long, and the wages they pay you are too low."

They continued.

"We do. We just want a job, bread and milk now."

“It doesn’t matter if the working hours are long, the work is tiring, or the working environment is bad.”

Thomas said.

At this moment, both sides were pointing at each other and trying to persuade the other side.

However, Thomas and others were not moved at all, because he knew very well that if he did not work hard to protect his job now, his family would go hungry tomorrow.

I can’t care about so many things now. Filling my stomach is the most important thing.

Moreover, people like Thomas knew very well that it was not just ordinary people like them who were like this, but everyone from top to bottom was like this. They had to find a way to restore the industry and could not continue in this mess.

Otherwise the situation will only get worse.

This is why a new steel mill can be opened, because there is no other way now.

The steel mills in front of us are struggling to maintain their operations and may go bankrupt at the slightest disturbance.

Because the steel industry is now a real sunset industry, the steel mills in China are the real giants, with advanced technology, large output, high quality, and global sales channels.

It is not easy to survive in the face of such a powerful opponent. If you keep messing around here, everyone will be unemployed.

This is what Thomas is most worried and afraid of happening. It is not pleasant to live hungry.

The emotions between the two sides became more and more excited, and soon they couldn't control themselves and started fighting. For a while, the scene was extremely chaotic.

Thomas was injured and taken to the hospital.

But fortunately, the steel plant was saved, the jobs were saved, and the hospital bills were paid by the steel plant.

This made Thomas couldn't help but secretly breathe a sigh of relief.

After just a few days of rest in the hospital, Thomas returned to his job.

Because according to the current system, they can only get normal wages if they go to work, and they will get additional overtime pay if they work overtime.

Thomas wanted to earn more money because his daughter's birthday was coming soon and he wanted to buy her a gift.

If possible, he would like to take his family out for a trip.

After a hard day's work, I got home at nine o'clock in the evening.

His wife had calculated the time Thomas would get off work and prepared mashed potatoes and toast for him.

Thomas enjoyed his simple dinner while watching TV.

"We will further remove various restrictions so that businesses can have more autonomy and operate more flexibly."

"For now, the most important thing for us is to have a job first, to fill our stomachs, to have milk and bread!"

"Only when we are full can we talk about other things."

"We have lost our technological leadership and advantages in many areas. What we can do now is to start over, step by step, slowly from the beginning, and slowly regain the technological advantage in our own hands."

"The pain at hand is short-lived!"

"It is a process that must be experienced. We must make changes, otherwise we will have no hope, absolutely no hope."

"We must respect workers, respect their value, and respect their own wishes. As long as they voluntarily work overtime and can receive extra overtime pay, this is reasonable and should be done."

"At the same time, we should also encourage everyone to work harder and get more pay. Society should not support lazy people, but should encourage everyone to work, because only in this way can we create more social wealth and ensure that everyone has bread and milk."

“The world is developing rapidly, and technology is exploding at an unprecedented speed.”

"The Shenzhou people have already started interstellar colonization and occupied two planets with life."

"If we continue to sink, we will have no hope and will miss the wave and opportunity of the interstellar colonization era."

"Hundreds of years ago, our ancestors braved the seas and braved all kinds of difficulties and dangers to travel around the world and colonize all over the world. That's why we have everything we have now, including our great Fab La West."

"Today, history has come to a crossroads, a turning point in destiny."

"We must concentrate all our strength and work hard to develop. Only in this way can we catch up with the tide of development and become glorious and great again in the era of interstellar colonization!"

Thomas listened carefully and thought seriously, and he deeply agreed with this.

Because everything now has already shown this.

If no one works, where will society’s wealth and welfare come from?

If we don’t respect knowledge and people who work hard, who would be willing to study and work hard?
How should this society progress?
