Jasper looked at Henry and said with a smile, “You have only been out of the country for a few days, and now you are back. Didn’t you just waste your time traveling?”
Henry reached out and touched the back of his head. Then, he smiled honestly. “It’s nothing. It’s not like a family like us can‘t: afford a few plane tickets to the United Kingdom.”
This was true.
Jasper asked again, “Have you seen your grandfather?”
Henry nodded. “Yeah, I also gave him a gift from Jill and me. I only came out after I gave my blessings to the old man.”
After he said that, he asked again, “I heard you and Miss Maynard had an interesting chat just now. What were you chatting about?”
Jasper and Celine exchanged glances with playful smiles.
“It’s nothing… We just discussed the aftermath of the current subprime mortgage crisis in the United States. They initially wanted to take advantage of the myth that the real estate market would only rise but not fall and lured many consumers who could not repay their loans to borrow money via mortgages. When they entered the real estate market, they should have thought of future consequences. ”
Henry nodded. Although he was far away in the United Kingdom during this time, he had been paying attention to the changes in the global financial market.
“Now that the United States is in disarray, if I guess correctly, they will definitely turn the gun on the outside again, according to their character. After all, they have been doing this for over half a century. Aren’t they going to send troops to Qari again?”
Jasper laughed and did not say anything as he listened to what Henry said. He had reincarnated and knew a series of harsh consequences brought about by this crisis in his previous life and how it had ended. This crisis alone would have been enough to bankrupt the United States if not for the fact that they had a huge military background.
Jasper smiled lightly, “Actually, it‘s not difficult to understand. The United States is now the world’s largest power. If they go bankrupt because of the debt crisis, the disaster to the world will be even greater. So I think, at present, no country is willing to see such a situation and will naturally help them.”
Henry and Celine both looked remorseful.
“What a shame! If Somerland now also has its aircraft carrier fleet, as well as a developed navy and air force, it wouldn’t have to fear the United States anymore. We can go head-to-head with them! There’s no need to be forced to buy their treasury bonds.”
Jasper said flatly, “In reality, even if Somerland’s military strength has reached an unprecedented level, it will still buy the United States treasury bonds. This is an irreversible result! But we can’ t let the United States get through this crisis so easily. We have to make them vomit blood this time.”
