Chapter 272

Some people may not believe it, but Japan is a great place to be right now, and everyone wants to go there to escape the coming war.

Compared to the distant West, a foreign land full of white people, Japan, which was separated by water, was much more “friendly”. First, Japan is very close to China; Second, the Japanese and Chinese people in the appearance of more similar.

Thirdly, we have to mention “since ancient times”.

Since ancient times, Japan and China have a lot of interaction, whether official or private, Japan can be said to be a neighbor is not strange.

Although Japan is now the aggressor, but this does not deter those who want to flee to Japan.

Because it was obvious that once they set foot on Japanese soil, they were Japanese!

It is much easier to pretend to be Japanese in Japan than to make a living in the world of the foreigners.

Zhu Yuyan, who had a heavy responsibility, asked around among the Japanese students, but she didn’t want to. Nowadays, smuggling people to Japan is a very popular business.

Because of the distance is too close, not only the Japanese Chamber of Commerce ship can be taken, from here first to Fujian, and then from Fujian side of the small fishing villages in the Japanese fishing boat to Japan, can also be easily smuggled it.

After being smuggled across the border, naturally, they had to work to pay off their debts.

What Er Zi said about wanting to go back to Japan is that she wants Zhu Yu Yan to help her escape from the school, send her to the place where she was smuggled, and then find a way to go back to Japan from there.

Erzi: “I’ve already learned Chinese. If I can get out of school, I can find a boat and go back to Japan!”

Futako is confident. The hardest part for her was how to escape from the school.

The Japanese teachers at the school were so strict with the Japanese students, not allowing them to run away without orders, the strict work schedule like in the army, and the previous requirement of having to move as a group, all of which were designed to prevent the students from escaping.

…… Because, deserters are everywhere~

Even if the Emperor was so great that the Japanese worshipped him and were willing to give their lives for him.

But life is so precious!

Desertion has been banned ever since Japan sent its army to China.

I heard from my second son that in order to prohibit desertion, young men who join the army in Japan are now required to marry in their home towns before they are sent to China.

This is to prevent desertion and to use the wives of the soldiers in their home towns to keep them in line.

And Japanese students like Futsuko were not the only ones sent to China, but in many Chinese cities, large numbers of Japanese expatriates and Japanese students were sent in.

The purpose of the Japanese in doing this is clear.

They were sending Japanese to China in order to occupy China as soon as possible.

In this city, the Japanese expatriates’ chambers of commerce have now taken over the local chambers of commerce. For the people, buying rice from Japanese merchants is not different from buying rice from Chinese merchants, especially now that there are no Chinese merchants at all who are willing to open their doors for business, then rice from Japanese merchants is extra precious.

Rice, flour, grain and oil, medicinal herbs and cloth, these are all things closely related to life.

The people did not understand the world that the adults were fighting over, and they did not care who was the emperor. They just wanted to live in peace.

After the market collapsed, the Japanese Chamber of Commerce stepped in to stabilize the market, and thanks to those rice noodles, the Japanese Good Citizen Certificate succeeded without much resistance among the people.

Only one or two acidic literati shouted a few words of “the country is going to collapse”.

But to the people, in this short period of ten years, the sky above has changed from the emperor to the president, and the foreigners have changed from France to Britain to Japan, too many changes, just like the children of the wolf, and then someone said that the Japanese are not kind, as long as they can’t turn out the rice, and there are still the gendarmes and hooligans roaming on the streets, then the people won’t pay attention to what he said.

No amount of reasoning can fill the stomach.

The same applies to the Japanese.

Whether they were Japanese expatriates or Japanese students, there were the same deviants who were too scared to be interested in dedicating their lives for the sake of the Great Japanese Empire.

Before Futsuko and the others left Japan, the officer who sent them had told them a lot about how the army disposed of deserters, just to scare them.

How to dispose of deserters? Men, of course, were shot outright, and women would be made into military prostitutes.

The Japanese army openly carries military prostitutes, just like the cherry blossom trees, all to ease the homesickness of Japanese soldiers.

Zhu Yuyan had read a few articles about Japanese women volunteering to be military prostitutes, thinking that Japanese women were all strange rowdy species with brain problems.

But the second child is not willing to be a military prostitute, her “mission”, that is, when she first came to the goal has always been to find a rich Chinese family man, marry him, to be his Chinese wife, and then in the long life slowly let this man become Japanese, including the children she gave birth to, in the future will be loyal to the Empire of Japan! The child she gives birth to will be loyal to the Empire of Japan in the future.

Before she gave birth to the child, it seems that Futako did not “wake up”, she still thought that it would be good to give birth to the child and send it back to Japan to be raised by others, and she continued to fulfill her mission in China.

However, after surviving the pain of the birth, she suddenly changed her mind, not wanting to marry in China, and later on, she had to persuade her husband to be loyal to Japan, and then educate her children to be loyal to Japan as well.

She wanted to escape back to Japan, even if she had to work hard for the rest of her life and never have any time off.

Er Zi knew where a few Japanese who could help people smuggle into Japan lived and what their names were, and she told Zhu Yu Yan these names and asked her to go and help contact them.

Er Zi embarrassed said, “They may ask you for money …… I, I will definitely find a way to pay you back when I return to Japan!”

Zhu Yuyan who got the list smiled compassionately and said gently, “Don’t worry, we are friends, don’t care about this little bit of money.”

Then she went back and gave the list to Su Chunjun.

“There must be more, there must be more Japanese engaged in similar work.” She spun around in front of Su Chunjun and asked him, “Do you think that I can get more information if I go and look for Mr. Sakai?”

Su Chunjun thought that the step could not be too big, “I’ll go and investigate these people first to confirm the truth in her words.”

Zhu Yuyan: “But going to Japan from a smuggling is definitely not in line with Mayor Feng’s requirements.”

Smuggling over like this is to work as slaves for the Japanese. Er Zi said that those people would have to “work”, but given the language barrier, it certainly wouldn’t be honorable work.

She doesn’t think the Japanese capitalists are any gentler than the Chinese. It’s not like she doesn’t know what the women in the cotton factories that just closed down in Riverside do.

Mayor Feng and Cai Wenhua, the channel they needed was to be able to live the life of an upper class person even after they left China.

Su Chunjun smiled and said, “There’s no need to rush. It is not us who are in a hurry now.”

The ones in a hurry were those who desperately needed to escape.

Thus, in the next few hours, Zhu Yuyan was not really in a hurry.

She began to help Zhu Yanshu and Professor Dai move the school.

Moving a school was not a small project.

Ever since Principal Tang had gotten through to everyone, the school had begun moving like ants moving.

Everything was done in the dark – not describing it, it was real.

During the day, the teachers were all serious about their daily teaching activities.

Late at night, they sneak out like mice and silently do the moving statistics.

First, there was the personnel count.

Those like Prof. Dai who had just gotten married and had a simple family were a very small minority!

The other professors and teachers almost all had a large family.

Because Prof. Dai got married late, he just got married less than a year ago.

Like him so drunk on academics, not interested in private affairs of the man is too rare, in this society, men are generally from fifteen or sixteen years old to start thinking about marrying a wife, seventeen or eighteen when the general has a beautiful woman in the arms, twenty years old with one or two children that is a very normal thing.

By the age of forty or fifty, it is also common to have one or two new wives.

Principal Tang himself was not a moral model – he recognized himself as such. So he didn’t demand too much of the teachers’ moral standards. After all, happy families were the same, while unfortunate families had their own misfortunes. He was tolerant enough to look at many people’s lives, and even if he couldn’t empathize with them, he wouldn’t boast of being a moral warrior and go on to accuse others.

Since there are women in the world like Ms. Zhu who were abandoned by Yang Xuhe and divorced, there is more than one male teacher in the school who once abandoned his old wife and took a new one.

After all, the great wind of freedom of love still blew to many people back then, and until now, the wind has not stopped.

However, just like Principal Tang, Ms. Zhu and Prof. Dai also do not like to comment on outsiders’ affairs, or Zhu Yuyan sisters do not like to meddle in other people’s business.

Who in this world is really a saint?

There is a Mr. Lai. His name is Lai, but the person is a good person, gentle and calm, modest and kind.

He was a teacher who had once repudiated his wife and another wife.

When he was in his hometown, he was married to his cousin under the order of his parents, and gave birth to a son and two daughters, the son was a fool, but the daughters were normal.

After the death of his parents, his daughters married, and one of the two sons born to his eldest daughter was also a fool. In the end, the eldest daughter was repudiated.

At that time, Mr. Lai had already realized that this might be a problem with his bloodline, but didn’t know why.

He was a man of some learning and did not believe in gods and ghosts, nor did he think it was because his family had not made proper offerings to his ancestors, so he made a special trip to the big city to seek medical help, only to be caught by Principal Tang and shoved into the school.

Principal Tang may have lied when he “tricked” people, but Mr. Lai did find out about his bloodline at school.

It was because of consanguineous marriage.

His bloodline was too close to his cousin’s to give birth to a stupid son. And the eldest daughter married a cousin as well, so she gave birth to another stupid son.

As for the youngest daughter, she was not married to a relative of the family, so she escaped.

After figuring out the reason, Mr. Lai immediately rushed back to his hometown, and he had to stop two marriages.

One is that his family will give his stupid son to do marriage, choose or relatives of the girl, because the parents do not want to raise, Lai family money to buy down, married to the stupid son, so that he will have someone to take care of.

Another thing is his eldest daughter, after being repudiated home, the family also for her to find a marriage, is a dead wife of the widower, not coincidentally, this man according to the three generations of blood relatives algorithm, should be the eldest daughter’s cousin uncle.

Because it is a different surname, so in the hometown it is possible to get married, but also because it is a relative, do not have to worry about the daughter to marry over the aggrieved.

Mr. Lai rushed back home, but did not stop the two marriages. His brothers and uncles didn’t understand why he stopped them, so he told his cousin and eldest daughter that because the blood was too close, there was a chance that the children born from the marriage would be stupid.

As a result, the eldest daughter cried and said, “Then does father want me to be unable to get married?

Mr. Lai said, “If you don’t get married, I can still support you for the rest of your life.

But neither the cousin nor the eldest daughter was willing, and the cousin even taught the eldest daughter to hang herself to force Mr. Lai to agree to the marriage.

As for the marriage of his stupid son, there was nothing he could do. He told his brothers and uncles that his son was a fool, and that he might give birth to another fool.

But brothers and uncles are said, born out of the stupid child clan will also be raised, will not care, but can not not give his son married ah, men married women married, that must give him a wife, a man without a wife how can it?

Mr. Lai finally returned to the school disheartened, he finally had to divorce his cousin.

After knowing that he could no longer be a couple with his cousin, Mr. Lai thought about divorce, but worried that after the divorce, his cousin would not be able to live in the tribe, and hesitated for a long time.

But after his cousin taught his eldest daughter to hang herself, he became firm on the idea of divorce.

After divorcing his cousin, he went back to school, met and married his current wife after being introduced to her by a bystander, and then had three healthy children, two boys and a girl.

But those three children are not the only ones in his family now, there is also his foolish son and his foolish son’s wife.

He divorced his cousin and left, and his cousin remarried to the adjoining village, rather than remarrying to a blood relative within three generations, and I’m told that any children born afterward were normal.

The eldest daughter remarried and unexpectedly had no more children.

The stupid son and his wife were married with the help of the clan, but after the marriage they became poorer and poorer. The eldest and second daughters had limited help for their brother and could only send a letter to Mr. Lai.

After discussing with his wife, Mr. Lai went to his hometown to pick up his foolish son and his wife.

Now the family lives together in perfect harmony.

As for why the silly son did not have children with his wife, it is because he was born a fool, and now he only eats and sleeps, can not speak clearly, and does not know how to have children with his wife.

And his wife was also very young when his parents half-sold half-married sent over, she also do not know what else to do, she every day just make a good meal to feed her stupid husband to eat, even if they sleep in the same bed at night, the two of them also can not do anything.

When Mr. Lai learned of this, he told the little girl that she could not be the wife of the fool, and that he would treat her as his daughter and find her a better marriage.

However, the little girl refused to do so, fearing that another family would not be as kind to her as this one, and preferred to continue to be the wife of the fool so that she could remain in Mr. Lai’s family and be taken care of by the Lai family.

Because I saw with my own eyes, Mr. Lai’s two sons and one daughter were very gentle and kind people, and they took great care of this stupid brother, and didn’t mind that the two of them were eating for nothing in the Lai family.

Now, the three children born after Mr. Lai were all married separately and had children as well – everyone was fast.

So the Lai family move equaled four members of the Lai family, plus three of each of the children totaling nine, plus the three in-laws on the other side of the family ……

What a big family!

There was more than one such teacher.

Zhu Yuyan looked at the staffing list and suspected that by then there would be more teachers and □□□ than students.
