Rebirth in 1998 starts with the stock god

Most people know the terrible effects of war.

Because many news, movies, and TV dramas contain post-war scenes, with people displaced, cities in ruins, and many dishevelled children who have lost their parents crying in despair.

But most people don’t know what terrible impact rising prices will have.

If war is a "meat grinder", then rising prices are a "blunt knife for cutting meat".

You may not feel anything after one or two cuts, but it will be extremely painful after ten or a hundred cuts. The most terrifying thing is that this blunt knife cuts you every day!

Some "weak" people (poor people) may not be able to withstand the first cut and die.

Sakurai Hiro was very helpless and said: "It's no use looking for me! The reason why Daxia suddenly took action was to help Chen Mo!

Unless we admit defeat and withdraw from the New Six-Nation Alliance now, Daxia will never be able to take back our decision!"

"The only solution now is to quickly end the hedging and get the money from Chen Mo, so that we can greatly ease the various conflicts and pressures in the country."

The two ended their conversation.

Sakurai Hiroshi felt very uncomfortable.

"Why do we in Sakura Country have to depend on Daxia for even our food, vegetables, and meat?

Why are resources so scarce in our Sakura Country?

Why do we have to live our lives to please the tyrants?

When will we be able to truly stand up?"

The more he thought about it, the tighter Sakurai Hiro clenched his fists!

After resting for a long time, Sakurai Hiroshi wanted to check his phone to relax, but several pieces of news made him feel even more depressed.

Title: Insufficient rice stocks, increased demand, Sakura residents lamented the sharp rise in rice prices

Content: Sakura News reported that due to various factors, domestic rice prices continued to rise. The prices of rice-based foods in many convenience stores and supermarkets have increased. Many Sakura residents lamented that after the price increases of other daily necessities, "rice has finally arrived."

According to the survey, the price of imported rice has increased by nearly 80% compared with last year, and the purchase price of another type of cheap rice has also increased by % compared with before.

The Sakura Economic News believes that there are two factors that led to the rise in the price of Sakura rice. The first is the malicious price increase of rice exported by Daxia, and the second is the inflation caused by the impact of the Western subprime mortgage crisis.

The rise in rice prices has a huge impact on the lives of the people of Sakura. Rice firmly occupies a core position in the food culture of Sakura, and the production of foods such as rice balls and sushi cannot be separated from it.

According to the Sakura News, a store manager said that the original selling point of rice balls was that they were cheap and affordable, but now they have to raise the price. The most popular rice ball product in the store has increased from 360 Sakura coins to 430 Sakura coins. A customer said: "If the price goes up again, I won't be able to buy (this kind of rice ball) often."

In the food culture of the Japanese, rice balls have a status similar to that of noodles and steamed buns in China.

Many Sakura people, especially the poor, choose to buy a rice ball and make do with a meal when they cannot afford to eat.

Hiroshi Sakurai didn't expect that even rice balls, a food that can ensure food and clothing, have increased in price so much!

Then look down.

Title: Tragic news: Cheap and delicious beef rice bowls are about to become history. The unprecedented rise in beef prices has impacted the lives of Sakura residents.

Content: The average price of beef rice bowl in major fast food restaurants is about 430 Sakura coins. Considering that the current price of ramen is around 1000 Sakura coins, it can be said that beef rice bowl is still relatively cheap.

However, looking back at last year, the price of beef rice bowl offered by all fast food restaurants was around 280 Sakura coins. In other words, the price of beef rice bowl has increased by nearly 1% in less than a year.

Of course, overall prices have risen during this period, but according to the official consumer price index, the increase in the past year was only 1 points. Much smaller than the price increase of beef rice!

Why has the price of beef rice bowl increased so much now?

In addition to global warming and climate change causing the decline in cattle herds, the main reason is the economic development of Daxia. There are more beef rolls in the hot pot. It is the people of Daxia who have taken the beef from the bowls of the Sakura people!

When Sakurai Hiroshi saw this news, he felt mixed emotions.

Because of the economic development of Daxia, the people of Sakura can't even afford beef rice!!!

"Damn Daxia people!!! Will you die if you eat less beef?!"

This is a jerk. He can't even afford beef rice, but he blames people in other countries for eating beef every day...

This logic is really ridiculous!

If Chen Mo was here, he would definitely scold Sakurai Hiro: "Beef rice bowl is getting more and more expensive? How is it expensive? It has been the same price for so many years, don't talk nonsense with your eyes open!

Sometimes I have to look for the reasons in myself: has my salary increased over the years? Have I worked hard enough? "

Hiroshi Sakurai continued to browse the people's livelihood news, almost all of which were related to price increases and unemployment.

However, these did not break his faith. What really made him extremely uncomfortable was this piece of news.

Title: A 102-year-old woman in Sakura turned herself in after killing her -year-old mother: She is unemployed and cannot support her.

Contents:

The Sakura Police Station arrested a 22-year-old woman on the 70nd for attempted murder. The woman confessed to the police that she committed such a crime because she could not bear the pressure of supporting her 102-year-old mother.

It is understood that this woman is not poor. She saved 2000 million Sakura coins before retirement, but it is still not enough to pay for her mother's medical expenses and living expenses, so she had to work.

His mother can only eat rice with natto for every meal now. She has not eaten expensive foods such as fish, beef, and fruit for many years.

"I don't know why I feel so exhausted. I have 2000 million Sakura Coins saved. If I were alone, at least I could have meat and vegetables for every meal.

My mother could no longer go to the toilet on her own, so I started carrying her there on my back.

I also thought about hiring a caregiver, but the cost was too expensive.

In the past two years, prices have risen drastically, and our lives are only slightly better than those of beggars. Every meal consists of natto and rice.

I've had enough, it's too hard, I'm too tired, I just want to end it all with my own hands..."

The police also revealed that in addition to financial and psychological pressure, the 7-year-old woman killed her mother out of selfish motives - she wanted to go to prison to retire.

Nowadays, Sakura's prison is about to become a nursing home.

The number of prisoners aged 60 and over has doubled in the past decade. Many elderly people commit crimes deliberately to make ends meet.

Today, the economy of the Sakura Country is in recession, and many elderly people are worried that they will not be able to find a job after being released from prison, so they commit crimes in order to seek retirement in prison.

According to the Sakura Daily, many elderly prisoners are mostly convicted of theft, and some of them commit crimes deliberately in order to go to jail. Here, they don't have to worry about food and clothing, and they can take a hot bath every two weeks. Some prisoners suffer from Alzheimer's disease, and the guards must receive nursing training to take care of them.

In response to this, netizens have invented a new term - "silver-haired prisoners".

When Sakurai Hiro saw the news, he finally couldn't stand it anymore.

"We must succeed in defeating Chen Mo!!! We must improve the current situation of Sakura's aging society!!! We cannot let this kind of tragedy happen again!!!"
