Siheyuan: Married a female spy at the beginning of 1944

Chapter 6: Peking, a city where even pigs can’t eat

In fact, Xiaoquan doesn't trust traitors from the bottom of his heart.

This is mainly due to cultural and historical lack of confidence.

In his view, China has a long history and has always been the Celestial Empire.

In the past, people in their country worked as dogs for the Celestial Empire and they all looked proud.

Now in reverse,

Let these people from the Celestial Empire bow down and serve him as dogs.

As long as you are a normal person, you will definitely have resentment in your heart.

So he had to completely destroy the other person's self-esteem.

Nothing can destroy one's self-esteem more than taking away another's wife and daughter.

As long as he destroys the other person's self-esteem, that other person can only be his dog from now on and can never be treated as a human being in front of him.

Although there will be some strong resistance in this process.

Xiao Quan also admires these people who resisted, but that does not stop him from killing them all.

Use the blood of these rebels to intimidate others.

So far, it seems to be working very well.

No one in the detective team dared to disobey him.

After seeing the puppy leave, Li Yunsong finally straightened his back.

When he looked up, he found that his men were looking at him.

He walked over and slapped him twice.

"What are you looking at? Why don't you go to the interrogation room and see if you can get any more oil out of it."

The younger brother was slapped twice, but he didn't react. He just lowered his head and asked softly.

"Boss, what should we do with our dead brothers?"

Li Yunsong shouted angrily

"Who told them to be so blind? Five people were chasing two people, one of them was a woman, and they were killed in return?

He deserves to die, so as to save food."

Li Yunsong's words came from the bottom of his heart. If it weren't for the useless people under his command,

The puppy wouldn't hit him. If the puppy wasn't angry today, then his wife and daughter might not have to serve him.

The more he thought about it, the angrier he got, so he took it out on his men.

The younger brother lowered his head and was slapped a few times. Then he followed Li Yunsong, staring at Li Yunsong's heels fiercely.

He Daqing thought he could buy some meat at the vegetable market.

But when I got to the vegetable market, I found that there was nothing there.

Not to mention the vegetable market, even the grain store is closed.

After asking someone, I learned that during this period, Beijing residents only had one kind of food.

That's something called mixed noodles.

In recent years, due to the rapid development of bases behind enemy lines, many places in North China have actually been liberated.

The Japanese army occupied only some large and medium-sized cities.

It is impossible to collect grain from many small cities or towns.

In addition, the counties near Peking had been suffering from drought for years and the grain harvest was poor, making the food shortage in Peking even more serious.

Even the grain stores could not operate normally, and restaurants were closing one after another.

The Japanese puppet government was also afraid of causing unrest, so they concentrated all the food together.

He ordered all kinds of grains to be mixed together,

Mixed with wheat bran, acorns, rice sugar, etc., ground into powder, called "mixed flour".

All grain stores were ordered to distribute grain to citizens according to household registration.

Some of this mixed flour contains grain, and some even contains some sawdust.

Even for things like this, people still had to get up early and go to the grain store to queue up to buy them. Sometimes they could not buy them even after waiting for a day or half a day.

Later on, even mixed noodles were hard to buy regularly, the working people were in famine, and starving people were everywhere on the streets.

However, when Chinese people were starving to death in large numbers, the Japanese invaders were eating refined rice and white flour, and even their military horses were fed with grain.

It is said that the military horses could not digest all the beans they ate, and there were many beans in their horse manure. Some hungry people nearby would steal the horse manure from the stables and take it home to wash it with water to satisfy their hunger.

The older generation of Beijingers who have eaten mixed noodles will never forget that difficult era

He Daqing remembered that during the few days he was here, he had been eating potatoes, cornmeal, and there was even some rice at home.

"Where did the food we ate these days come from?"

He Yuzhu looked at He Daqing in confusion, then lowered his voice and replied

"Dad, you forgot, you brought them back in your lunch box when you got off work."

"Okay, let's go home. How many days can our family's food last?"

"As for grain, it can last for three or four days. As for the mixed noodles, it will be fine for one or two months."

He Daqing usually doesn't take care of anything at home, and all the household chores are taken care of by his wife.

He Yuzhu is not young anymore and often helps his mother with housework, so he knows the family situation better than He Daqing does now.

He Daqing felt a headache. He had been feeling upset and confused during the past few days since he came here.

He always felt that there was a gap between him and this world.

He finally felt better in the past two days. Ever since he killed someone, he felt that he no longer had any barriers between himself and this world.

It's really a headache to face these things as soon as you wake up.

"Dad, brother, wait for me, wait for me."

He Daqing was thinking about food issues and didn't pay any attention to his daughter.

He Yushui struggled with his calves, but couldn't catch up with He Daqing's pace.

He started shouting as soon as he got scared.

He Daqing turned around and saw the little girl's face, which looked a little frightened and nervous.

He picked her up in an instant, put her behind his neck, and let the child ride on his neck.

Xiao Yushui was startled and screamed twice.

When she found herself being placed on her father's shoulders, she giggled.

He Daqing twisted his body back and forth a few times to amuse the child. Little Yushui got scared and grabbed He Daqing's hair tightly.

After stabilizing, the little head started looking around again.

From her previous perspective, all she saw were adults' legs.

There are so many legs on the ground that it’s not easy to find my dad. If I’m not careful I can’t tell which leg is my dad’s.

Now sitting on dad’s shoulders, all I can see is his head.

Walking towards me from the front, I could see clearly what he looked like.

She screamed with joy.

"Oh, oh, Daddy, walk slower, walk slower, Daddy, it's so fun."

He Yuzhu was also very happy to see his sister happy.

The grief over my mother's death was also dispelled by my sister's joyful laughter.

After returning home, He Daqing checked the food first.

There were about six or seven pounds of cornmeal and only a dozen potatoes.

And it is not very big, basically the same size as a goose egg.

There was quite a lot of that mixed flour, almost 100 kilograms.

"No wonder they say that even in a famine, the cooks will never starve to death. The market is so bad, and yet we still have these things at home."

He Daqing didn't know where to get food in the future, so he had to use it sparingly.

I made a pot of tortillas using cornmeal mixed with cotton.

As for the potatoes, I just stewed them in a pot of soup.

After the meal was ready, He Daqing walked to the bed.

He patted Li Wanqiu's shoulder gently.

"Wake up, it's time to eat."

Li Wanqiu sat up suddenly and immediately reached under the pillow.

Only after I realized there was nothing under the pillow did I slowly come to my senses.

She smiled awkwardly at He Daqing.

"Don't worry, it's safe here, get up and eat."

He Daqing helped Li Wanqiu slowly get out of bed and walked to the table.

Looking at the things on the table, Li Wanqiu was a little stunned.

"Just eat this?"

"That's good. Other families can't even afford this."

Li Wanqiu also knew what ordinary people in Peiping ate at that time.

But she felt that He Daqing must be a capable person, as he showed no mercy when he killed someone just now.

People like this shouldn't be unable to get food.

He Daqing put the pancake he made in his mouth and took a bite.

Then he stretched his neck, took a sip of the soup, and finally swallowed it.

Li Wanqiu saw He Daqing's expression and then looked at the pancake in her hand.

No appetite at all.

But after all, I didn’t eat anything all day and I was really hungry.

She took a small bite tentatively.

"What the hell did you put in this? Why does it smell like this?"

Li Wanqiu has also eaten cornmeal pancakes. Although the taste is not good, it still tastes quite fragrant.

The pancake made by He Daqing smells like corn, but when you eat it, you find that it tastes almost like pig food.

Not only does it have a faint sour smell, but it also has a strong smell of rice bran.

"This is the food the Japanese distributed. This is the condition of our family. If you want to eat better, you have to wait.

I'll see if I can get food in two days."

He Daqing and Li Wanqiu didn't eat much, but He Yuzhu and Yu Shui ate a lot.

After dinner, He Daqing let the children go to another room to play.

"Now you're not so tired, right? Tell me what happened. I have a family to support, and if I'm not careful, everything will be ruined."

He Daqing accidentally killed someone and activated the system.

This also gave him confidence, so he was very tough when facing Li Wanqiu.

Li Wanqiu thought about it and decided to trust He Daqing.

"I am Li Wanqiu, a member of the covert team of the Beiping Station of the North China Region of the Second Division of the Military Control Commission."

"Military Control? Boss Dai's men?"

He Daqing didn't know much about the Kuomintang's spy system.

The only two relatively large spy organizations known are the Central Bureau of Investigation and the Military Bureau of Investigation.

The Central Bureau of Investigation was led by the brothers Chen Lifu and Chen Guofu.

He only remembers Dai Li from the Military Control Commission.

When Li Wanqiu heard He Daqing mention Boss Dai, she felt a lot more relaxed.

Nowadays, anyone who can casually mention "Boss Dai" is either a senior military or political figure or a spy.

Most people don’t even know who Dai Li is.

"Are you from the Military Control Commission or the Central Control Commission?"

"Neither. I won't work for Chiang Kai-shek. That bald guy will definitely not have the last laugh. Who would want to hang out with him?"

After hearing what He Daqing said, Li Wanqiu's face became much gloomier.

During her training, she was brainwashed and told to be loyal to the bald man.

Now that someone is slandering the bald man in front of her, she is naturally unhappy.

But people have to bow their heads under the eaves. The military strength is not as good as that of the Qing Dynasty, and there are no weapons in hand.

"So you are a red bandit?"

"Not really, but if I have the chance, I will definitely join them. No matter what, they really treat the people as human beings.

You baldies only treat foreigners as human beings, and don't care about anyone else at all.

Not to mention ordinary people, even officials feel insecure.

No matter how well I do over there, I won't be able to sleep peacefully.

Even Baldy himself might not be able to sleep at night."

The option of working for the bald man was not even in He Daqing's mind.

Although I have my own system, if I follow Baldy, I will definitely be able to become a superior person.

He was rich and powerful, and had many wives and concubines, and gold and silver all over the place.

But what's the point? Go to that shitty island and live as a resident? Or go to America and live as a second-class citizen?

He Daqing would rather use his meager strength to contribute to the construction of the new country.

Li Wanqiu was stunned by what He Daqing said.

Her understanding of the Kuomintang is not complete.

She was recruited into a secret service organization and was sent directly to Peking after training.

The main purpose was to investigate the movements of the Japanese in Peiping.

I don't know the situation of officials within the Kuomintang.

She has the simple cognition of most Chinese people.

The people at the top are all good, and the policies are all good, but the people below are corrupt, accept bribes, and abuse their power.

This resulted in the policy being distorted when it was implemented.

In the end, the people suffered.

As long as the situation is reported to the higher authorities, the problem will naturally be solved.

She also felt that the Kuomintang was still very active in the anti-Japanese issue. After all, they had sent her to Peiping to gather information.
