Chapter 142: The Great Famine
[34.], to provide you with wonderful reading.
Jeonbuk Muju Choi Tong Village, the scenery can be described as picturesque, here is a small village surrounded by green mountains, in the September season, it is the time when the fruits in the mountains are ripe, walking on the village path, you can see the peach trees on the mountain full of fruits.
"Wow... It's so beautiful on the mountain. ”
"There are so many peaches, I really want to go up and pick some. ”
"Don't... That's a crime. ”
"Autumn has arrived... Harvest season. ”
................
Under the sigh of everyone all the way, the family members came to the grandparents' house, and after greeting the grandparents and then sending the two on a trip, Jiang Dacheng took out today's task from the room: harvesting wheat and making mountain wine.
"Today's task is a bit difficult, especially the barley harvest, because you can look at the sky, the weather is a little cloudy today, so we may have to hurry, so... We did not rest, but after putting our things away, we immediately went up the mountain to harvest the barley. ”
"Good.... After Liu Zaishi finished speaking, everyone immediately nodded.
Barley is a good thing, with about 96 million hectares (246 million) of barley planted worldwide at the end of the 1970s. Nearly 18,000 metric tonnes are produced annually, of which about one-half is used as feed and the rest is used for human consumption or to make maltose. Beer is mainly made from barley malt, and more than 10% of the total production is used to make beer.
So beer lovers will love barley.
After everyone nodded, they each received a sickle, and then a group of people began to walk up the mountain, and Li Shuo brought a kettle in addition to the sickle, which was filled with a pot of warm water.
At this time, Lee Hyo-ri looked at Lee Seok with a smile and asked, "It's for Taeyeon again?"
"Huh... Li Shuo smiled and nodded: "If you are not feeling well, drink some warm water so that your skin and throat will not become very dry, of course, my sister can also drink it, and there is also my sister's in it." ”
"That's pretty much it. Lee Hyori smiled happily.
The road up the mountain is not very long, and it takes more than ten minutes to walk, and when we reach the barley field, everyone is asking how to cut, at this time Jin Xiulu stood up and told everyone that as long as it is like cutting rice, it will be fine.
It's just that this explanation still makes a group of people confused, because they haven't cut rice either.
Fortunately, Jin Xiulu took the lead in making a demonstration, and then everyone followed behind Jin Xiulu to cut it, cutting rice is boring, but with Liu Zaishi, even if it is boring, it can make it interesting.
Soon, under the leadership of Yoo Jae-seok, everyone began to sing the songs of Girls' Generation "GEE", "Say Your Wish" and so on...!
At first, Li Xiaoli was very unhappy and asked why he didn't sing his own song, but soon after, Li Xiaoli himself was actually the same kind of person, and it was called a joy to sing with Liu Zaishi.
When the song was finished, suddenly, Yin Zhongxin let out an emotion: "Ah... When I saw barley, I wanted to go to the time when I ate mixed food. ”
What is mixed food, in fact, it is to mix barley with better rice and noodles to eat, so because of the famine, Hancheng was affected at that time, probably in the seventies.
At that time, compared with Hancheng, its brother North Korea was much more miserable, although Hancheng ate mixed food but at least there was still food, and in North Korea, it was simply a disaster.
According to the research results of the Hanseong Unification Research Institute, the population loss caused by the famine in North Korea during that period was at least 230,000-390,000, and the maximum was between 400,000 and 480,000.
According to the account of the late North Korean leader Hwang Chang-yeol, who defected to Hanseong, the food crisis became increasingly serious due to the flooding of North Pyongan Province. More and more people are starving to death on the streets, and there are more and more murders and robberies caused by food grabbing. As soon as you leave the center of Pyongyang a little, you can see people starving to death, and to the outskirts, there are piles of corpses.
Hwang Changye quoted the Organization Department of the Workers' Party of Korea as saying that during the "March of Suffering," 480,000 people died of starvation, including 50,000 D-members, and about 50,000 workers in the munitions industry, of which more than 2,000 were even the most skilled workers. Half of the people, because they were hungry, could not work, so they had to lie down.
Because North Korea is a closed country, it is difficult to know the exact number of deaths in the incident, but according to different literature estimates, the death toll ranges from 240,000 to 480,000, and most of the deaths were caused by starvation or malnutrition.
However, among the family members, only Yin Zhongxin has experienced such a difficult time, and no one else has encountered it, and even if he has encountered it, he does not have a deep memory.
This paragraph is a bit sad, so it was quickly revealed, and then it was about the rankings, Hancheng people especially like the rankings, and several people in Girls' Generation also won one of the many strange rankings.
For example, what female artists want to kiss the most, female stars with the most beautiful smiles, team captains of the last leadership, stars who want to go to the gym the most, many... It's all weird.
At this time, the family members said that Lee Hyo-ri, she and Kang Dae-sung together won the first place for men and women who wanted to go to the summer together.
For this one, Lee Hyori replied very confidently: "What's this, I have been one for ten years." ”
Lee Hyo-ri's self-confidence made everyone laugh.
However, soon, Liu Zaishi smiled evilly and said, "Yes... Hyori has been one for ten years, but if he really wants to go to the summer, I think he should be replaced. ”
Hyo-ri laughed unhappily.
And following behind, Jin Xiulu also shouted loudly: "Why has Xiaoli been the first for ten years, it is because no one has been with her, and when the person who went to the summer with Xiaoli comes back, it is estimated that his mind will change." ”
"Haha... Lee Hyo-ri laughed, but after laughing, Lee Hyo-ri immediately disliked it and said, "Ah... It's your pleasure that I come here every week to play with you. ”
Then he looked at Li Shuo beside him and asked, "Xiao Shuo, do you like to play with your sister?"
"Of course. Li Shuo did not hesitate.
Then Lee Hyo-ri looked at Kim Taeyeon again and asked, "What about Taeyeon?" ”
"Me too... My sister is actually the best. Kim Taeyeon immediately said sweetly, you must know that Lee Hyo-ri is the direct predecessor of Kim Taeyeon and others, so coercion, Kim Taeyeon dares not to say good things.
"Hmph.... For Lee Seok and Kim Taeyeon's words, Lee Hyo-ri was proud, and then looked at the members of the family and said, "Look at it, this is everyone's voice, you don't know how to cherish it." ”
In Li Xiaoli's pride, everyone cut wheat into the three-flavor realm, completely put into it, and after a while, a lot of wheat was cut, of course, the barley field is not very big, probably only a few points.
A group of ten people, no matter how they talked, finished cutting the wheat in an hour, and as soon as the wheat was finished, they heard Liu Zaishi laugh and say: "The wheat is finished, so let's play a game now, right?"
