Zhao Tiehu, who only stayed in Wangjiabao for one night, took the three children of the Wang family with him when he left the village the next day. The villagers who learned the news were naturally very envious of the three children of the Wang family for having such an opportunity.

Going to the city to study is still an unattainable thing for many children in rural areas. At present, the three children of the Wang family have the opportunity to study in the city, which is equivalent to a chance for them to change their fate.

Even if the Wang family loses one child, the Wang family still has six children, and three of them will definitely have a future in the future. This is undoubtedly an envy and blessing for many rural people who hope to change their fate.

Although when they left the village, the three children of the Wang family still seemed a little reluctant, and Wang Xiaohu's parents and three younger siblings were also reluctant. But everyone knows that they can't afford to miss such an opportunity.

Holding the hand of the second son and the second baby, the royal father also said earnestly: "Second baby, when you get to the city, look at your sister and brother more, listen to the words of the chief, you must study hard, don't embarrass the chief, you know?" ”

'Got it, Daddy! My younger siblings and I will definitely study hard! ’

Compared with his younger brother Tiehu, who doesn't like to study and just wants to be a soldier, the second baby's temperament is much quieter. For him, studying to become a cadre or working may be what he hopes to do the most. As a soldier, he probably doesn't have the courage!

Seeing the reluctance of the family, Zhao Tiehu also said in a timely manner: "Uncle, aunt, you are not too far from Yan'an City, if you really want to have a second baby in the future, then you can also go into the city to see them."

When I have settled them down, I will have them write letters to their families, and when you enter the city with the address on it, you should be able to find them. What's more, they also have time to go home every year, and they can come back to see you! ”

If Wangjiabao was too far away from Yan'an City, perhaps Zhao Tiehu would be worried about the danger of entering and leaving the city. However, although the Wangjiapu side is poor, it is also the core rear of the Eighth Route Army, and the government here is already under the jurisdiction of the Eighth Route Army.

Walking on one's own turf naturally does not pose as much risk as the occupied area. If you really want to enter the city, it is still easy to find Yan'an City if you want to find someone. On the other hand, it is easier for three children to come back in the future.

When he left the Wang family, Zhao Tiehu did not forget to leave some money and materials for the Wang family. Even if Wang Xiaohu's parents didn't want it, Zhao Tiehu still said earnestly: "Uncle, aunt, the children are too thin, give them something good!" ”

The first impression of the children of the Wang family is that they are all thin. is similar to the two babies who are seventeen years old, but they look similar to the thirteen or fourteen-year-old children in later generations, and they are as thin as a bamboo strip.

Even if Wang Tiehu, who wants to be a soldier, is also thin, the only thing that is a little different may be that Wang Tiehu is taller than Wang Erwa. In addition, Wang Daya, who is fifteen years old, is also like a little girl.

Although the three children were teary-eyed when they left the village, as the three of them sat down on the pack horses and followed the procession, the outside world still made the three very curious. From time to time, they asked where they were passing by.

And Zhao Tiehu also said in a timely manner: "Remember these places we have passed, and when you come back from vacation in the future, you will also go together." In the future, in addition to learning knowledge in school, you will also have to learn how to be independent and how to distinguish between right and wrong.

When you get to school, study hard, and ask more questions if you don't understand. But you must remember that you must never forget your family at any time, and you must not forget the Wangjiabao who raised you. In the future, you have to know how to repay the villagers, you know? ”

'Got it, big brother! ’

Originally, several children also wanted to call Zhao Tiehu 'chief' like their parents, but under Zhao Tiehu's strict order, the three finally changed their names to 'big brother'. After all, Zhao Tiehu also promised in the Wang family that he would treat them as his own brothers and sisters.

Although the six children can't see what their nature is now, Zhao Tiehu still hopes to give them a chance and hope that they can have a better future. As for how to settle them in Yan'an, Zhao Tiehu believes that he can still find a way.

Anyway, this time he went back to Yan'an to report and study, and returned such a huge amount of seized materials. is reasonable, Zhao Tiehu hopes to arrange for his three younger siblings to study, and the above should not refuse.

It's really not good, Zhao Tiehu may go and ask the committee member to arrange the affairs of the three righteous brothers and sisters. He believed that for the sake of his old subordinate's face, the commissioner would still arrange it for him.

In these days, it is also common to adopt orphans of martyrs. And this is what Zhao Tiehu promised Wang Xiaohu, so if he fulfills his promise, I believe that the above will not say anything. After all, his current identity can also support a few people!

When the group finally arrived in Yan'an City after strict inspection, they looked at the familiar figure standing at the gate of the city. Zhao Tiehu and Chen Wan were both startled and said, "Ah! Why are they here, hurry over! ”

'Hello Commissioner! Hello Director Zhou! ’

Looking at Zhao Tiehu, who trotted forward to salute, the committee member dressed in Xiangyin also smiled and said: "This tiger cub, you did a good job!" I'm so worried about what will happen to you. I am relieved to see that you are safe! ”

'Commissar, I'm worried about you! By the way, these three are the righteous brothers and sisters I recognize. When I was a squad leader in the Third Company, I was ambushed by bandits while escorting food for the troops.

In the end, I jumped off a cliff to save my life, but it was a blessing in disguise that the blood was gone. When their eldest brother died, I promised to honor his father and raise his younger siblings. This time, I made a detour to their house and brought them over again. ’

Knowing that these two came to greet him in person, it was not necessarily because of his identity, but probably more because of the huge amount of money he brought. After all, today's central government is really short of money, and there are a lot of funds worth 200,000 oceans!

After listening to Zhao Tiehu's account, the committee member said with a very agreeable expression: "Yes, they are the younger brothers and sisters of the martyrs, and they should indeed be taken care of." It's just that the three babies look too thin, and this is unacceptable, so you have to take care of it. ”

Just when the committee member said these words and seemed to habitually touch his pocket, Zhao Tiehu quickly took out a pack of torn cigarettes from his pocket and said, "Commissioner, smoke this!" Handed in on the battlefield, there are a lot of bags in the back, can you taste it, do you see the authenticity? ”

'Ahh You tiger cub, I haven't seen you for a few years, and you've learned this set! I like it, though! ’

When Zhao Tiehu was laughing and talking with the committee members, Chen Wan also saluted Director Zhou and reported the process of the trip. Looking at the string of boxes on the pack horse, Director Zhou also looked very happy.

Whether it is the gold and silver in the box, or the radio stations with damaged parts, they are all valuable treasures for the current Eighth Route Army. And Zhao Tiehu also stepped forward at the right time and handed over the list of materials.

Looking at this list, Director Zhou also smiled and said, "Comrade Tiehu, you have done the Central Committee a great favor this time!" ”

'Director Zhou, I don't dare to take this seriously! Considering that long-distance escorts are too dangerous, most of this money is converted into gold. As for the current ocean, there are really not many words, there are still some of them, and the two old chiefs borrowed them. ’

'You're talking about Director Luo and Comrade Zhang Jingshan from the First Column, right? ’

'Yes! The life of the two old chiefs is not easy, and they are currently expanding their troops, so they really need funds. Although my side has not been established for a long time, I have made a few small fortunes by relying on the railway line, and my life is better.

This money was also specially given by the two old chiefs and asked me to personally escort it to Yan'an. I hope this money can solve a little trouble. Oh! I forgot to mention that there are still a lot of banknotes issued by little devils, I don't know if it's useful? ’

'Military tickets for little devils?' Of course this one works, how many? ’

'Specifically, I really didn't calculate! However, I have a large amount of money in two oilcloth bags, and there should be 100,000 yuan! On Zaozhuang's side, although the little devil's banknotes can be spent, they are still not as easy to use as the ocean.

And we don't dare to spend large amounts of paper money casually, most of them spend small amount of paper money. Thinking about coming over this time, I will bring those banknotes copied from the little devil to see if I can exchange some supplies and come back! ’

Listening to Zhao Tiehu's words, Director Zhou also scolded with a smile: "Although the currency of the little devils is not circulated in our border area, the currency of the little devils in the occupied area is still relatively easy to use. In the future, as long as it is paper money, it will be stored for me.

The ocean is hard currency, and it is easy to spend no matter where it is. But those banknotes issued by various governments can still be spent by some means. Sometimes, it can even help us a lot. I will definitely remember this in the future! ”

'Yes, Director Zhou! Well, if there are such seizures in the future, I will definitely ask the soldiers to put away the banknotes! ’

In fact, as a special officer from later generations, how could Zhao Tiehu not know the importance of currency. Even the military tickets of the little devils, as well as the fiat currency issued by the national government, are easy to depreciate, but they are all money!

But when he said this in front of Director Zhou, he believed that the two of them would also feel normal. After all, for a soldier like Zhao Tiehu, things like the ocean, silver, and gold are the most valuable things.

Gold worth 200,000 oceans, and nearly 200,000 little devil military tickets. The materials escorted back to Yan'an by Zhao Tiehu this trip really made Director Zhou and the cadres of the Finance Department happy, and they felt that they had finally seen a big income.

At the moment, the government is asking for money everywhere, and the army is also asking for money. But for the Eighth Route Army, relying on this place in northern Shaanxi, the tax revenue is almost zero. The only few places that can make money, the same little income.

In addition, the Nationalist Government itself was poor, and the military salary promised to the Eighth Route Army was even more intermittent. It can be said that many times the current Eighth Route Army can really only rely on itself and find ways to make money.

As for the battlefield capture, many times the supply troops are not enough, and the money that can really be sent back to Yan'an is really not much. Perhaps because of this, Zhao Tiehu, the detachment leader, returned to the city and deliberately let the two bigwigs go out of the city to greet him in person!
