Chapter 1383 The prospect of raising chickens asks for a monthly ticket

"You can't do this, jason, that's a good thing."

This involves the issue of the values ​​of Eastern and Western people. Yang Cheng did not argue. Going back to the issue of raising chickens, "Yes, that's right, Bill did place 100,000 chickens in Africa, trying to help Africans improve their living conditions. This idea is a genius idea in any normal country. In fact, I don't think the return of any investment is comparable to raising chickens.

But where is there? Africa has a population of more than 1.2 billion people, producing 800 million tons of grain each year, but each person needs 1 ton of food every year. If this calculation is made, there is still a 40% grain shortage.

However, this is not a simple mathematical problem. Calculating the average is simply a scam that covers the ears and deceives oneself. If the rich make more money, the average will immediately become extremely beautiful. Similarly, if a few more poor people die, the average will be very beautiful.

Therefore, Africa's food shortage is much more than 40%.

You should know that most people in Africa only have $2 a day for living expenses. I can say that among the 1.2 billion people, 1 billion people are facing the problem of lack of money every day. If you don’t have money, you won’t have food to eat. Then there are the skinny children you often see, the hungry women with stars, and the thin and thin elderly people waiting to die.

In this case, do you think they are still in the mood to raise chickens?

It's better to calculate the simplest account: According to the price of an African chicken for about $5, if Bill donates 3 hens and 1 rooster gives a family poverty, then the family can hardly spend a few dollars. It only takes 4 chickens to own 12 chickens within 3 months. In one year, it's 250. Selling chickens alone can earn $1,250 a year, which is roughly equivalent to getting a return of 62 times. 100,000 chickens can benefit families of 25,000 ~

It sounds optimistic and has a promising future, right?”

Emma has completely entered Yang Cheng's thinking and nodded subconsciously, "Of course, my math is not that bad, more than $1,200. On average, this income alone has $4 in living expenses every day, twice as much as it was, and can solve many things.

If you count this way, raising chickens can really help West Africa get rid of poverty.”

Yang Cheng smiled faintly and reminded him, "Did you forget what I said before? Some things cannot be average!"

Emma's smile was consistent, and then she frowned deeply. She realized that there seemed to be no difference in letting Africans raise chickens and letting them farm. Even though the effectiveness of raising chickens is higher than farming, it will take several months to wait for the chickens to grow up. But can Africans wait for several months?

I'm afraid I'll starve to death within a few days, and I have to spend time taking care of the chickens, feeding feed, consolidating the chicken coop and other processes. Can the energy and physical strength I put into this work be supplemented by the extra income of $2?

Emma's thinking fell into a vicious cycle again, and Yang Cheng laughed, "There has been a saying in the country that "giving people to fish is better than giving people to fish. Everyone knows that donating money cannot solve practical problems, so just raise chickens?

Not to mention that building a chicken coop first requires physical strength and cost. Even if the cost is very low, it only takes some sticks and wire, but raising chickens also requires vaccination. How much does it cost? How many cents a chicken? What if there are 10 chickens?

Chickens seem relatively easy to take care of, they can be stocked and allowed to go out for food, which can save money on feed, but chickens are uncontrollable when they are released. Not only people live on the African continent, but also countless wild beasts that need to survive need to eat. God knows how many chickens can be released?

The chickens I had worked hard to raise for several months were about to harvest, but they all became cheaper, and they were all cheaper. They couldn't cry even if they wanted to cry, which would waste the few water in their bodies.

Instead of letting Africans raise chickens, it is better to build a chicken farm and hire more local employees. Anyway, people in that place are cheaper than vegetables, and can also help more families."

Yang Cheng's last sentence was just a casual joke about taking a little ridicule, but who would have thought Emma would take it seriously, staring at Yang Cheng with her bright eyes that seemed to see a limited edition Hermes, "Let's do that?"

"What?" Yang Cheng didn't react.

"Invest in chicken farms in Africa and hire local employees, and you can build an ecological industrial chain to help more Africans become rich."

Yang Cheng was amused and crying, "You took the wrong medicine? Did you get a dream by an African last night? Why are you so struggling?"

Emma photographed him, "It was just that after suddenly getting idle, I thought a lot. I felt bored whether to join a feminist organization or become your charity foundation spokesperson. It was too utilitarian. Even if I say ten lies, I had to mix a few truths in the middle, right?"

"Well~ Having said that, you have to know that if you simply consider the issue of poverty alleviation charity, investing in a chicken farm is not a big problem, but once you consider profit, the problem is not that simple."

Emma didn't know much about business operations, and asked with a frown, "What do you mean? Didn't you just say that investing in a chicken farm in Africa is very low?"

"That's right, but what about safety issues? I invest in a chicken farm. Whether it's for charity or profitability, it's fundamental to operate safely. But to achieve this goal, you must hire a security guard. You also know how much it costs to hire a team of professional bodyguards every year.

Especially in the African place where birds do not shit, there will definitely be additional subsidies."

“Why not look for it from Africa?”

Yang Cheng spread his hands, "I mean the defense companies in Africa, with headquarters in South Africa. They are all hyenas, and they want to squeeze the last drop of blood on your body."

Seeing that the Fairmont Hotel was ahead, Emma sighed, "Is there really nothing I can do?"

Yang Cheng shook his head, "The main reason is that it is not worth it. If you have this money, investing in difficult and complicated research projects can also help more people."

Emma nodded disappointed, "Okay~"

Yang Cheng didn't understand why she was so disappointed. After thinking for a long time, in order not to make her too sad, she had to say, "Let's do this, I will also attend the 400 Rich Rich Charity Summit held by the magazine this year. When I meet Bill and Warren, I can discuss this project. The power of our joint efforts may be able to do something bigger."

His words were ambiguous and did not give 100% guarantee, but for Emma, ​​it was undoubtedly a hope.

After Yang Cheng said this, he couldn't help but smile bitterly. He spent a lot of money just to make a smile on his face!

......

The next day, the main match of the F1 Monaco Grand Prix arrived. Early in the morning, crowds of people were crowded across the streets, and the crowds of people were no less than the Football World Cup final.

Various long guns and short cannons gathered, and the volume of the continuous shutter sounds burst out was no less than the roar of the F1 racing engine.

In the morning, the teams were busy making the final pre-race preparations, and the busiest thing at this time was the media active in various positions. Some media invited big stars to predict today's competition.

Yang Cheng and the others stayed in a hotel and could enjoy the top-notch service without leaving home. Due to too many people outside today, Yang Cheng and Emma decided not to go out to join in the fun.

I woke up in the morning and had a wonderful brunch at the restaurant, followed by a top-notch spa, and time flew by.

At 2 pm, after passing the bead warm, 22 racing cars squeezed into a narrow starting point, and the battle was about to begin.

The engine in idle creates a terrifying sound wave, igniting the enthusiasm in people's hearts. As the five indicator lights turn off at the same time, Hamilton, who is in the pole position, stepped on the accelerator without thinking and directly oiled the floor, seized the first detour and blocked the Red Bull Racing team's Verstappenlaula behind the car.

The top six drivers passed the first corner one after another, and then an accident happened.

In fact, it cannot be called an accident. On the Monaco track, the first turn faced after departure was a very big challenge. In order to get the most perfect route, the drivers accelerated one after another. However, on the narrow streets, the f1 drivers' proud control was maximized. Even if the steering wheel was shaking slightly, it would be possible to collide with the car next to them.

Not to mention that the starter was ranked 7th this time. The Spanish driver of McLaren team, Sainz, didn't know whether he was deliberately blocking the car or not hesitating to the Renault racing behind him. The latter took advantage of the gap when the former started slightly slower and tried to speed up and squeezed through the first turn.

But who would have thought that when the latter's front nose wing just exceeded his right rear wheel, the car's right rear wheel collided with the left front wheel. The car in front inevitably rotated, and the Renault behind also hit the guardrail with a distance of only a few dozen centimeters due to its powerful inertia.

McLaren racer turned around twice in place, almost stopping across the middle of the track, blocking most of the road surface. The driver behind had to brake urgently and barely squeezed through the roadside buffer zone.

The Monaco Grand Prix hit the ground at the beginning, undoubtedly igniting adrenaline for car fans. The accident is one of the biggest highlights of F1 racing. Before the accident comes, it is difficult for a strong man, such as Senna and Schumacher to change their fate.

McLaren and Renault have withdrawn from the race one after another. The drivers influenced by them have no time to scold them, so they can only step on the accelerator desperately and try to keep up with the First Group. However, the top six drivers are originally masters of the masters, and with the advantages of racing performance, the gap with the Second Group will only grow bigger and bigger.

The driver who is currently ranked 7th cannot even see the afterimage of the taillights of the 6th car.

Yang Cheng was on the balcony, drinking champagne while excitedly commenting on the collision just now.
