He was the descendant of a wealthy family and came to the government work area with old accounts. What I thought was nonsense did not expect that the old bill contained a long history and a deep revolutionary friendship.
The length of time did not erase the trust and affection in this bill, but made the old man's feelings for the country deeper. This staggering amount of old arrears is a testament to the most precious sentiments of the Chinese revolution.
Tens of millions of arrears
In China in the 1980s, everything was proceeding in an orderly manner, and on this day an ordinaryly dressed elderly man came to the local government's workplace to break the silence. This old man is not a famous person, only that his name is Guo Jianying, who came to collect debts this time.
Hearing the old man's request, the government staff member Zhang'er monk was confused, this is a government agency is not a lending institution, how can anyone come here to ask for a debt?
With such a question, the local staff received the old man, only to see the old man take out a very age-sensitive IOU from his arms, which wrote guo Mingyang, the role of the old man's father.
Although the staff does not know who Guo Mingyang is, according to the old handwriting on the IOU, it is probably the loan relationship between the Chinese soldiers and Guo Jianying's father during the War of Resistance Against Japan, and the amount of the loan reached more than 10 million, but the unit was the previous legal tender.
According to the needs of the elderly, the staff carefully searched for all the information about Guo Mingyang in order to find out who returned the IOU, but did not want to find a history that could witness the deep feelings between the army and the people.
Go back in time
Far away, when the Chinese people united to resist foreign aggression, The most potential and popular chinese eighth route army was the Eighth Route Army, but because most of the Eighth Route Army was not a regular army, and there was no financial support and help, the situation of the Eighth Route Army was very difficult, and it would always rely on the help of others to get through the difficulties.
At that time, although the Eighth Route Army was short of materials, it had a good relationship with the people, because they were doing their best to kill the enemy on the battlefield, which was completely different from other armies with a straight face.
In 1939, when the Chinese Eighth Route Army was besieged and pursued by the enemy when passing through Shanxi, the equipment of the Eighth Route Army was not advanced, and even maintaining food and clothing in peacetime became a problem.
Because the situation of the war was too fierce, it was difficult for the rear of the Eighth Route Army to send enough grain to Shanxi, food and clothing became a problem, advanced weapons did not have channels to be introduced, the Eighth Route Army's road to resist the war was very difficult, there was no capital to advance, and there was no way back to retreat, and it fell into an extremely passive realm.
In desperation, the Eighth Route Army had no choice but to ask the local people for help. At this moment, Guo Jianying's father, Guo Mingyang, was still a local rich family, although it was not as rich as the warlords of the enemy country, but there was still a lot of grain in the family, and he voluntarily contributed the family's grain to the Eighth Route Army.
At that time, the Eighth Route Army army had an iron-like rule, that is, the marching army could not take a needle and a thread from the common people to fight. Even so many ordinary people are willing to contribute to the Eighth Route Army when they see them fighting so hard, and Guo Mingyang is one of them.
Faced with so much grain in Guo Mingyang's family, the Eighth Route Army was very embarrassed, and taking the grain violated the rules of the army, and how the Eighth Route Army would convince people in the future. But in such a difficult situation, if you don't take any capital to win this war?
Just when the Eighth Route Army was at a loss, Guo Mingyang and the leader of the Eighth Route Army reached an agreement to convert grain into money according to the price at that time, and then the Eighth Route Army wrote an IOU to Guo Mingyang and returned the property after the Eighth Route Army won the battle according to the agreement.
This method seemed to have the best of both worlds, but in fact, the Eighth Route Army was helpless at that time and had no other valuable collateral. To make such a lending relationship more reliable, this lending relationship is based entirely on the trust between the military and the people, even if any party repents, it is difficult to have a fair decision.
What's more, no one knows when the War of Resistance Against Japan will be victorious, that is to say, this loan relationship is more of a deep desire for a happy outcome of the War of Resistance Against Japan in the hearts of both the military and the people.
With the belief that the Eighth Route Army would win, the Eighth Route Army accepted Guo Mingyang's grain, and although the agreement between them was only a paper document, it was more of a trust and precious feeling between them.
No one expected that the war of the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression lasted for more than ten years, and how many wives and children of the people scattered everywhere during so many years, and Guo Mingyang also moved his family with his whole family because of the war.
But he still carried the IOU with him and kept it, which not only made Guo Mingyang's family firm in their hopes for China's victory, but also made them have an expectation for the Eighth Route Army.
Forever missed
After many years of long struggle, the Eighth Route Army finally won the war, and the IOUs that the Eighth Route Army once left in Guo Mingyang's home were also left to his descendants as heirlooms by Guo Mingyang, but he said to his descendants: Don't bother the Eighth Route Army until the most difficult time.
Guo Mingyang's child, Guo Jianying, has always followed his father's teachings. Time gradually passed, Guo Mingyang also died, and then Guo Jianying's family encountered difficulties, with the mentality of trying it out, he found the relevant personnel with an IOU, and wanted to cash in on the huge amount of money that year, which led to an old man looking for the government to borrow tens of millions of dollars.
The amount on the IOU is about 10 million French currency, which translates into about 80,000 yuan today. After the staff counted 80,000 yuan from the bank, they solemnly handed it to the elderly Guo Jianying.
Although the arrears of 80,000 yuan are not a huge amount today, this IOU and this arrears are not only a memorable memory for the Chinese government and the Chinese people, but also a precious trust.
The old man Guo Jianying happily took 80,000 yuan home, and after this incident, let their whole family trust the motherland more, because even after so many years, the country will seriously fulfill its promises, which shows that in the Chinese people are first and foremost.
In that dusty memory, many warriors who sacrificed their lives for China's independence emerged, and many people who did their best to help the Chinese of the Eighth Route Army, and the trust and precious feelings between them laid the foundation for the victory of china's War of Resistance Against Japan. Although the warriors are worth remembering, the strength of unity among the people should not be underestimated.
The deep feelings of the Eighth Route Army and the Chinese people created the victory of China's War of Resistance Against Japan, and also created the thriving appearance of the Chinese nation today, and the promises and memories of the past will also be the history that the Chinese nation will always remember.
