Chapter 411 Break the spine and pull out the bones (Second update, please subscribe)
Like many occupying troops stationed in Japan, Big Man Zhang’s life is very happy, and there are even some excitements that cannot be treated humanely by outsiders. .
Of course it’s just a little too much work. There’s nothing you can do about it, men will always suffer.
There is no other way, just to save people!
It is necessary to sacrifice, we are all one family, we must save them!
But overall, he still enjoyed it very much. Although he said he didn't want it at the beginning, his body was still very honest.
This is almost how it describes the Japanese after the war. When they surrendered three years ago, everyone said they wanted to maintain the dignity of the Japanese Empire. But now three years later, in the face of hunger, What do the Japanese people feel when they are living a hard life in the torture of poverty?
It’s poverty!
Although food aid from the United States has allowed the Japanese to survive and allowed Japanese children to have a free lunch in school, the United States can provide hundreds of thousands or even millions of tons of food, but it does not There is no way to give jobs to millions of people.
Unemployment and poverty plague every Japanese. And without money, hunger is inevitable.
The hard days made all Japanese realize a truth.
Alive!
It is better to live like a dog than to linger like a dog.
How do dogs need to live?
As long as you have a few bones, you can shake your head and tail, and you can live peacefully.
In order to live a better life, women can leave their husbands and children and go to Nanyang. It is like a paradise there, with jobs, money, warm sunshine, and no hunger or poverty.
Leaving Japan and going to Nanyang has become a common choice for women.
Of course men can do it, but not every man has the opportunity to go to Nanyang. After all, Nanyang only needs female workers in textile and garment factories.
Of course there are some lucky ones who, like women, can leave Japan shrouded in poverty and embark on a journey to Southeast Asia.
As a mining expert, Nakajima Yokoji uses technology to With a visa, I brought my family to Nanyang.
Like all Japanese who signed a work contract with the company, the company also provided an apartment to Nakajima Yokoji, and a van that picked up their family from the port - a Volkswagen T1 bread. Compared with the Beetle, this kind of car can be used at the moment. Cars with seven or eight passengers are more popular in Nanyang, and even the BMW factory in Nanyang has begun to design minivans of the same style.
The driver took Nakajima's family of five to their community, stopped in front of the corridor, and then handed them an envelope and said.
"Mr. Nakajima, you live in Room 304 on the third floor. There are keys, advance salary and ration coupons. Police officers will assist you with the corresponding temporary residence procedures."
After giving simple instructions and asking him to tear open the envelope and check the keys, cash and ration coupons, the driver drove away, leaving only Nakajima's family of five, who were all nervous and full of expectations. looking at the third floor.
“Aren’t the Nanyang people portrayed in the movie Western-style houses?”
Mrs. Nakajima asked nervously.
"Oh, that one is for citizens. We are not yet, so we can only live in an apartment."
Nakajima Yokoji explained, and then said to his eldest daughter who was full of expectations.
"Hemei, lead the way!"
The family just climbed up the stairs to the third floor. Soon they were on the third floor, looking at "304" The beige wooden door of the room, as the parent, Nakajima, tore open the sealed envelope, poured out the key, and opened the door.
The moment the door opened, the whole family's eyes lit up. Sunlight shines through the balcony into the living room. The living room, which is more than ten square meters, looks very bright. A wooden sofa and two low stools are placed next to the coffee table. There are even fruits on the coffee table. There are a few stools beside the dining table.
“Is this our home?”
The youngest daughter Jiamei walked in happily. She was only five years old, and all her memories in her life were - the one with pieces of paper, A house made of old newspapers represents hunger and cold.
But now, when she suddenly saw such a house, she was even a little uncomfortable and felt as if she was in a dream.
“What is this? Can it be eaten?”
Walking to the coffee table, Jiamei looked at the bananas in the fruit plate and asked.
"This is a banana! I've read about it in a book."
The second daughter Huimei walked over and looked at the bananas expectantly.
"Banana, my God, it's really a banana. Is this, is this for us?"
Hemei's eyes stared at it, wanting to swallow the banana in one bite?
"Welcome."
Picking up the card on the coffee table, Nakajima said. "Yes, it's for us."
Twist off a banana and tear it open. The tempting aroma made him swallow a mouthful of saliva, and then handed it to his little daughter. , said.
"Okay, daughters, this is our home, we will never go hungry again! Dad, there is a job! The best job in the world."
There were too many surprises waiting for them next. The girls, who were accustomed to being crowded together, found that each of them had a bedroom, and Mrs. Nakajima not only saw the utensils in the kitchen, but even saw the long-lost gas.
Everything was like a dream, giving her an unreal feeling. She even dared not speak, for fear that she would wake up from this sweet dream by accident.
Is this true?
Everything was real, even in the kitchen she saw a list with Chinese characters written on it - rice was seen on it, and when she saw 5 pounds of rice in a paper bag, In a daze, I hugged Mi tightly and almost cried.
Until now, she has no way to forget, in the final stage of the war, what kind of things can everyone do for a bag of rice?
Women can sell their bodies and men can kill people. But even so, hunger is still like a nightmare and has never been far away from their lives.
And now, this bag of rice seems to be telling her that all the painful memories are over.
From now on, you no longer have to worry about eating!
When she walked out of the kitchen, her eyes became particularly firm. When she saw her husband sitting on the wooden sofa, she walked over, knelt down by his legs, and spoke seriously and solemnly.
“Nakajima!”
Nakajima looked at his wife, and from her eyes, he knew that she had something important to say to him.
“Nakajima, you must work hard and let them know that you are a very good employee. With your work, you can turn me, Kazumi, Emi and Camry into Nanyang. People, do you know? "
Looking at her unresponsive husband, she thought that he was unwilling, so she said a little excitedly.
"Are you still thinking about Japan? What does Japan have? Besides poverty and hunger, what else is there? Don't you think this place is like paradise? Nakajima!"
Look Looking at his excited wife, Nakajima had no chance to speak at all, and the woman said excitedly.
"Even big names like Yukawa Hideki who will win the Nobel Prize have become naturalized Nanyang people. Why do you have to hesitate!"
"I...I didn't hesitate."
Nakajima Yokoji said quickly.
"It's just that it's very difficult to naturalize."
The wife said what the husband said.
"It is very difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, it is not as difficult as starving. No matter what you do, in short, you must work hard!"
Looking at his wife's serious expression, Nakajima even felt a little worried about what would happen if If she cannot be naturalized, will she take her daughter and marry that Nanyang man?
Or marry all your daughters to Nanyang people!
Really...how could this be possible?
Just at this moment, my daughter Kazumi’s screams of joy came from the bathroom.
"Oh my god, just like in the movie, there is hot water. Mom, there is hot water for taking a bath!"
But the daughter's happy words were replaced by the mother's scolding.
"Kazumi, you have to remember that you are no longer allowed to speak Japanese from now on. From now on, you are a Nanyang person, and you must speak Chinese, you know?"
Realized The woman who was also speaking Japanese suddenly spoke in halting Chinese.
“Together, we will never be able to speak Japanese in the future. We will be true Nanyang people!”
"Yes, mom!"
Hemei nodded vigorously and said.
“From now on, I will definitely speak Chinese well and be a Nanyang person!”
On this day, there was laughter everywhere in this apartment. For the Nakajima family, Now they have really left that hell and come to this paradise...
Even in this paradise, they are likely to be just passers-by, but it is precisely because of this that they I want to stay here even more.
Stay in this paradise and be a part of this paradise, just like everyone else.
