All along, the Communist Party has always taken "serving the people" as its purpose, coupled with a simple and strict style, which has been respected and supported by the masses. And the Workers' and Peasants' Red Army, the Eighth Route Army, the New Fourth Army... They have left a good impression on the people, are loved by the people, and are a veritable team of heroes of the War of Resistance in the eyes of the people.
But the Communist Party was also the poorest at that time, and many times the soldiers were worried about food, armaments and other issues.
Seeing this disciplined and courageous team, many people, although not rich, were willing to enthusiastically help these soldiers and heroes, generously giving out their own grain and money, giving them to support them in better resisting the enemy and defending the country on the front line.
In this regard, the warriors who resolutely do not take the money of the people have to accept the gifts of the people.
An IOU was made for the people, promising that if they came back alive, they would repay the rewards.
01
Therefore, behind those IOUs, there is a touching history, like an old man named "Liang Shiwei" in Guangdong, who turned over a sky-high IOU at home. What is the story behind this IOU? And everyone knows that the prices at that time and the current prices are completely different, it is understood that the state will even repay this IOU with profits.
Converted to 3 trillion!
3 trillion, even for China, which is now the world's second largest economy,
It's all a huge amount, how much did the state finally give back to this Liang Shiwei?
Liang Shiwei, whose hometown is Jiangmen, Guangdong Province, found a "special" IOU from his ancestral house in 2009, and his late mother lent 60 kilograms of white rice to anti-Japanese guerrillas. After the local civil affairs bureau confirmed that this IOU was true,
Liang Shiwei was rewarded with 20,000 yuan.
Later, Liang Shiwei spent the 20,000 yuan on repairing the ancestral house, and then found an IOU, the amount of the loan was a large amount, and the borrower was a guerrilla. To this end, Liang Shiwei hesitated and took the IOU to the local civil affairs bureau again, but this time, he did not receive any repayment.
02
This IOU, which is decades old, reads as follows:
The place of borrowing is
"The home of the third sister of Hongwen in Dajingtou Village."
"; Borrowing content
"38 stones, 70 pounds of white rice, 5,000 yuan of ocean, each gold bar weighing 1 pair, a total of 8 sticks."
The loan promises that "after victory, the local county government will repay it with two points of interest"; the loan prompt "It is recommended that hongwen sanjie be treated as a revolutionary family, take care of and protect her descendants"; the time of the IOU is written "December 29, 33 of the Republic of China": the borrower is "Li Zhaopei of the Third Squadron of the Xinhe People's Anti-Japanese Guerrilla Brigade".
Within 2 months, Li Zhaopei gave Liang Shiwei's ancestors 2 IOUs, and the first 60 kilograms of white rice were also borrowed by him.
The first IOU, the local civil affairs bureau has repaid to the elderly, so how much should this second IOU, according to the price of the meeting, be repaid? According to the "double annual repayment" stated on the IOU,
It is a sky-high price now, up to 3 trillion.
Liang Shiwei also did not know whether his second IOU could be cashed or not, in a few months, he ran a lot of relevant departments, but because this IOU was a "sky-high loan", this matter could not be handled, so the old man failed to get any repayment.
The reasons given by the Civil Affairs Bureau for this reason are also "sufficient", for example, no other claims can be made on the grounds of ious; and whether Liang Shiwei has the right to inherit the property of "Hongwen Third Sister"? Or the IOU does not necessarily represent the guerrillas, but is written in the name of an individual, and there is also the fact that during the War of Resistance, it was not the current government, but the national government...
In short, the IOU has been separated for a long time, and if you refuse to repay, there will be no lack of reasons.
03
In fact, the old man Liang Shiwei did not want to get this huge amount of money, but he should get some reasonable compensation, after all, the victory of the army is inseparable from the support of the people.
And his relative Hongwen Third Sister was once the highest-ranking person in the Liang family, although she did not make a will,
However, the two are mother and son, which is legally a reasonable inheritance relationship.
As for the borrower, although it is in the name of Li Zhaopei, Li Zhaopei represents the entire guerrilla group, and the guerrillas represent the country. In addition, the background of the loan is the Republic of China, which is in the period of "Kuomintang-Communist cooperation", and at the same time, the anti-Japanese guerrillas belong to the leadership of our party.
During the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, Hongwen Sanjie often ventured to aid the guerrillas, and the elderly Liang Shiwei was her descendant, and in the face of this selfless and dedicated family, at least an old man should be given compensation, or the IOU should be used as a witness to the revolutionary friendship between the military and the people.
The collection is displayed in the museum to promote the patriotic feelings of Akagi.
