In Marvel's Kamen Rider Chronicles

Chapter 47 The interrupted debut (7) (page 12)

"Pop", the sound of a glass bottle breaking to the ground.

This is the Clinton district on the west shore of Manhattan Island in New York.

Or maybe he’s better known by his other name, Hell’s Kitchen.

This place is already full of chaos, violence, crime and... poverty.

In the past, they could do some hard work and work as screws for factory assembly lines.

Or doing some valet parking for some people, just helping to look after the luxury cars of rich people to prevent their tires from being punctured, deflated, or simply stolen.

Or... take on the job of someone who needs to sell "washing powder" on behalf of others.

In short, the people here do dirty, hard, and illegal work.

And the ZF here...

Sorry, there is no ZF or manager here.

When the police arrive on the street, they would rather detour than go through the neighborhood unless they are off duty.

Because after get off work, on a certain street where I came here, the poor stumped women with scanty fabric on their bodies were waiting for people to save them.

Unfortunately, that was before.

It turns out that human appetite trumps all desires.

Because if you don’t eat, you will be hungry, and if you are hungry for too long...

It will kill people...

Hell's Kitchen is a place that no one manages and no one cares about, so naturally...

No one invests.

In other words, the resources here are relatively fixed.

If you want more, either, go out and grab it from people on other blocks...

Either...

The cry of killing and the banging roar of gunfire rang in my ears. The boy, who was thin due to hunger, hid behind the wall of a building. He looked at the gangsters who were fighting on the battlefield in the distance without blinking. , having a panoramic view of all situations.

After a long time, the gunfire disappeared, the people who survived left here, and the people who died...

Anyway, if the New York government doesn't give them money, no one will be willing to clean up here. In the end, only gang members will think these corpses are obstructing traffic and preventing them from making money, so they send people to clean up.

The little boy limped out of the shadow of the wall and looked at the corpses lying in a pool of blood. He opened his mouth and wanted to shout a word, but after a long time, he closed his mouth.

He knew that even if he called out for his father, the man lying on the ground would not be able to respond to him.

Yes, in order to survive, either go out and rob the resources of other neighborhoods, or... you can only reduce the number of people here.

This can also temporarily solve the urgent need.

The child was silent for a moment, then turned and left.

The child knew that if he wanted to continue living, he couldn't stay here and show off and shed a few useless tears.

He must keep moving forward.

Although in the future, no one in this world will call his name like his father, calling him...Wilson...

--------

Fires in Hell's Kitchen are nothing new.

What's more, now people don't care why there was a fight in that damn shitty place.

Even in the House of Representatives in New York, no one cares about this. What they are discussing now is the red numbers on the New York Stock Exchange stocks that make their blood pressure soar.

Among the countless red numbers, the few green ones couldn't suppress their beating blood vessels.

Although employment is encouraged, no matter how many people work or make money, they cannot make up for the amount of retail loans provided by banks to individuals.

What's more, the fact is that job opportunities are becoming increasingly scarce.

The small banks lent out the money they took from the depositors, and now they cannot collect it back. The depositors are in a hurry to repay various loans, installments, and need money. Simply, the small banks will simply fail, stop pretending, and go bankrupt.

What should depositors do now if they want to withdraw the money that big banks lent to small businesses?

Enterprise, you lent us money, it’s time to pay it back, right?

Small Business: No! roll!

Big Bank: Oops, are you still pretty cool? I'll take action directly! Freeze your business funds! Hey, you must be afraid.

Small business: I filed for bankruptcy.

Big banks:…

Then, the big banks looked at the loans from their big customers and large enterprises.

Big Bank: Brother, look at the money I lent you before...

Big business: OK, here, these are interest.

Big Bank: I mean, is it possible? This, the principal...

Big company: Didn’t we agree to pay it back in ten years? What, you want to talk without counting? It’s written clearly on the contract in black and white! If you dare to ask for money, we will file a lawsuit!

Big banks:…

Then, small companies went bankrupt, small banks went bankrupt, and big banks were unable to obtain sufficient cash flow in a short period of time.

A large number of people are unemployed, which has also resulted in a large number of New Yorkers being unable to pay property taxes and land taxes. They can only sell their properties or have them repossessed by banks.

Then the bank discovered that it had a bunch of houses and cars that no one took over and couldn't sell.

A large number of New Yorkers lost their jobs.

It should be said that I lost my decent job.

The impact of the economic crisis is only beginning at this moment.

It hasn’t hit the Midwest yet.

The price of meat, eggs, and milk is only a few cents higher than before.

This price increase is within the acceptable range.

However, job opportunities are much fewer than before.

As a result, many companies began to exploit their employees.

Does it look familiar?

Hey, if the economy goes down, people will definitely be treated like pigs and dogs.

You don’t dare resign anyway.

As for when the economy improves, then I will restrain myself. If it doesn’t work, I will change the group of people. Is it okay to change the group of people and squeeze them less fiercely?

As for face? How much is that face thing worth?

New York politicians are not stupid, they certainly know what is going on.

But at the beginning of every economic crisis, why can't we stop it?

In fact, the reason is very simple.

As soon as the politicians returned home after the quarrel, they asked their subordinates to clear their positions. By the way, they arranged for the "Zhuanjia" to announce on TV that "XX stock will definitely rise in the future, and if you enter the position now, you will definitely make a profit without losing money." .

What? Why don't you want to solve the crisis?

Why should I resolve when I can gain greater benefit from the economic crisis?

Yes, the economic crisis is never caused by these superior politicians.

Can’t the people down there afford meat, eggs, and milk? What does it have to do with them?

Of course, one thing I have to admit is...

There are indeed more elites in New York than in other places.

therefore……

Many people avoid this minefield…

And this minefield is spreading towards the ugly mainland.

Also heading towards...

Spread in other countries…

During this period, Bilson and his girlfriend went from a three-story villa to their ancestral home in the suburbs to...a rental house in the heart of New York.
