When the plane landed at Pudong International Airport, Wang Youcai's legs were still trembling.

More than ten hours ago, Wang Youcai saw such a big plane for the first time, standing in place and not daring to move, Yu Zhiqian helped him to get on the plane and sat down, then he asked tremblingly: "This is the plane you are talking about?" ”

"Yes!"

"The little devil's plane back then was much smaller than this!" After Wang Youcai sighed, he began to be curious about the things in the plane again, this flight was a flight back to China, so most of the people were yellow, Wang Youcai felt a little intimate.

When the plane took off and landed, Wang Youcai nervously grabbed the handrail, cold sweat broke out on his forehead, and it could be seen that the impact of all this was too great for him.

When he got off the plane, passed through customs, and officially entered Shanghai, Wang Youcai stood in the middle of the crowd and looked around: "Sir, where is this?" ”

"Shanghai!"

"Shanghai?"

Wang Youcai looked at the elevated, neat highways, and speeding vehicles and various buildings outside the airport, and swallowed his saliva: "Is this Shanghai?" ”

"Yes, have you been to Shanghai before?"

Wang Youcai was a little confused, and nodded with a little uncertainty: "I've been here, in the twenty-sixth year of the Republic of China, when the little devils hit Shanghai, we rushed over to support, but we didn't fight much, so we retreated, it's too aggrieved!" ”

Yu Zhiqian calculated that in the twenty-sixth year of the Republic of China, that is, in 1937, it was the Battle of Songhu.

"Let's go, I'll take you to see Shanghai! Then go to Changde to have a look, I still have something to deliver! After Yu Zhiqian finished speaking, he took out something wrapped in old oilcloth paper from his pocket, which was entrusted to him by the officer named Chen Hanmin when he was defending the city tower.

"Good!"

After getting into a car, Yu Zhiqian and Wang Youcai drove towards the city center, Shanghai, as the magic capital, is one of the largest cities in China, and its prosperity can also be ranked among the highest in the world.

The vehicle was parked near the Bund, Wang Youcai looked at the intact buildings on both sides of the Bund, and touched his head: "Seeing these, I still have a little impression, it's the Baiwaidu Bridge, right?" I've secretly looked at it before, it's all leased by foreign devils, and we can't go in! ”

"Now that the foreign devils have been beaten away by us, there is no such thing as a loan, we can go wherever we want!"

"That's great!" Wang Youcai's eyes were a little moist, his eyes looked at the skyscrapers around him, as well as the Oriental Pearl Tower, and wanted to remember the appearance of these buildings in his mind, and go back to tell his brothers.

"It's a monument, but it's ......"

Yu Zhiqian took Wang Youcai to the monument on the edge of the Bund, and after Wang Youcai saw it, he still saluted solemnly, and finally slowly put down his hand: "I am a soldier, I don't understand the above things, whether it is the Kuomintang or the Communist Party, I now see that my compatriots now live in a world without war, and they have no worries about food and clothing, I am satisfied, at that time, how dare we think!" ”

After finishing speaking, he wanted to take out a cigarette and give it to Yu Zhiqian: "Sir, I'm not afraid of your jokes when I say it, I beat the devil at that time, and I just had an idea, I think that if the devil is beaten away, I can go home and farm, and I don't have to run around, now it seems that what we did was worth it!" This sentence may be talking about himself, or maybe he is talking about his comrades-in-arms.

In the afternoon, Yu Zhiqian took Wang Youcai to watch a documentary on the development of some countries in recent years, and the projection was played in the hotel suite.

Like the people of that era, although Wang Youcai didn't know what an atomic bomb was, when he saw him explode, he still clapped his hands vigorously and was excited.

In the evening, Yu Zhiqian and the two went to eat the most authentic Chinese food together, Wang Youcai looked at the hairy crabs on the table, and was a little stunned: "Sir, you said that this thing only costs more than 100 yuan?" How much rice can you buy for a hundred dollars? ”

"Huh? I calculated that the current rice is about four yuan a catty, and I should be able to buy twenty or thirty catties of rice, right? You haven't eaten it? ”

Wang Youcai shook his head: "How can I not eat it, this thing was eaten by the poor at that time, and there was really nothing to eat, and there was no meat, and it was hard to eat, no one liked it!" ”

Yu Zhiqian was stunned when he heard it, okay, it seems that this is really the case, it is said that during the Republic of China, the poor people in Shanghai relied on eating hairy crabs to satisfy their hunger, which seems to be a real thing.

"More, more, more!" Looking at the table full of dishes, Wang Youcai was even more restrained, except for pork and crabs, he had never seen it, and he didn't know how to start with chopsticks for a while, especially these exquisite plating, he couldn't think of it before.

"Eat, talented!"

"Sir, this meal is expensive, isn't it?"

Yu Zhiqian calculated, this restaurant is not high-end, but he found it casually after encountering it, and the per capita was about two hundred to three hundred, and he shook his head: "It's not very expensive, normal ordinary people can come and eat a few meals a month!" ”

"That's it!"

After hearing that most people could afford to eat, Wang Youcai let go a little, added a large piece of beef, and put it in his bowl: "The beef is delicious, hehehe, I won the battle before, General Yu killed a cow and divided it, we even divided a little, this taste will not be forgotten for a lifetime!" ”

After finishing speaking, with a large mouthful of rice stuffed into his mouth, there are not many dishes, but there is a lot of rice, this way of eating, is a unique way to eat in which era, because when eating at home, there are fewer dishes and more rice, and there is only a little bit of a dish.

"Don't worry, eat slowly, I like beef, I'll take you to eat steak tomorrow, eat it every day!"

"What is a steak?"

"What Westerners eat, it's made of beef!"

"Don't eat it, Westerners' things don't taste good!"

Wang Youcai shook his head and continued to eat, this meal may be the most comfortable meal that Wang Youcai has eaten so much, don't worry about the danger around, there is meat, you can eat it openly, while eating, while smiling happily, but in the end, Wang Youcai's eyes moistened again, and he put down the dishes and chopsticks: "When many brothers die, they have not eaten a full meal!" ”

"It's all gone, that era has passed, and now I don't dare to say that everyone in the country can eat enough, but at least more than 95% can eat enough and don't have to starve!"

"Hmm!"

In the end, Wang You knew that after the restaurant would throw away these dishes if he couldn't finish them, he ate all the food ordered by Yu Zhiqian for at least five or six people, even if some soup was not spared, and the people of that era did not have the habit of wasting food.

ps: When I wrote this chapter, I deleted it many times, and I wanted to write a lot of things, but in the end I found that I couldn't start, and the pen was not enough, in fact, I also thought about whether I would be satisfied if the older generation came to modern times and saw the current country.
