Chahar office in Berlin, Germany
Wang Tingen, director of the Chahar office in Germany, was pouring tea for Zhou Zhen and the four of them.
"Half of the tasks of your trip to Germany have been completed, and the rest depends on the attitude of the German government, as long as the German government agrees to our request, your task will be half completed." Wang Tingen put the teacup in front of several people and said with satisfaction.
Wang Tingen, who graduated from the Friedrich-Wilhelms-Universität in Berlin, is in his forties, and his demeanor has the elegant demeanor of a Chinese and the open-mindedness of the West, showing the demeanor of a scholar.
Su Tong's desire for talents is well known in Chahar. As long as you are talented, you will be reused by Su Tong, and no one will interfere in your affairs. Of course, if you don't break the laws of Chahar.
Wang Tingen was attracted by Chahar's free and pragmatic atmosphere, and after the investigation bureau checked his background, he was directly appointed by Su Tong as the head of Chahar's office in Germany.
Don't look at Zhou Zhen and his entourage, they are all a group of iron-blooded soldiers, but they really dare not be presumptuous in front of Wang Tingen. First, Wang Tingen is the highest person in charge of Chahar in Germany, and before leaving, Su Tong specially told Zhou Zhen and the four of them to be restrained by Wang Tingen when they arrived in Germany. Second, Wang Tingen's knowledge and character have always been praised by people in the Chahar government. After all, in China, no matter what dynasty they are in, knowledgeable and stylish literati will always be respected and admired by people.
"Tell me, what did you gain from this trip to Germany and what you saw and heard?" After pouring tea for the four of them, Wang Tingen sat down and asked with a smile.
Zhou Zhen thanked him before saying: "Although it is my first time to go to Germany, after arriving in Germany, I personally feel that Germany's economy has recovered very quickly, and it has reached or exceeded the level before World War I. ”
"En" Wang Tingen glanced at Zhou Zhen appreciatively before nodding and said: "Since the economic crisis in Germany in 29, the people's dissatisfaction with the previous government has reached the extreme, which led to the downfall of Hindenburg, and their economy only improved after Hitler's Nazi Party came to power. ”
"So Hitler had a very good way of getting the German economy up in just a few years." Cheng Kai on the side said curiously.
"Not really." Fan Bingbing shook his head on the side and said: "Hitler was able to do it with the support of the German chaebols, in fact, the German central government at that time was still rich, but the economic order in the market was out of control, which led to a large number of people being unemployed. On the one hand, he built roads and large projects, which immediately solved the problem of unemployment among the Germans. The problem of unemployment is solved, economic order is restored, and the situation in the country is good"
"Oh" Wang Tingen looked at Fan Bingbing with some surprise and smiled gently: "I didn't expect this little brother to have a lot of research on the German economy." I don't know which school the little brother is a talented student? ”
Fan Bingbing didn't dare to pretend to be a big man in front of Wang Tingen, and hurriedly said modestly: "Don't dare to praise Mr. Wang, the younger generation is a graduate of Peking University and studied under Professor Huo Weiping." ”
"En" Wang Tingen nodded and said: "It's good that you can think of this, but there are still some shortcomings, now I will talk about some of my opinions." It is rare that the interest is very high today, and Wang Tingen told Zhou Zhen and the four of them in detail about the policies and changes in Germany over the years.
After World War I, Germany became a defeated country. In the world economic crisis of the late twenties and early thirties of the twentieth century, Germany was severely hit and its national strength gradually declined. The economic crisis that was spreading at that time intensified the class contradictions in the country and stimulated the ambitions of the monopoly bourgeoisie to expand abroad. "The German nation must find a way out of the plundered land and production space", Hitler's idea of world hegemony was embraced and supported by the German monopoly bourgeoisie. However, the implementation of the criminal plan to create a Germanic empire of the German nation required huge sums of money to provide financial guarantees. Where does the money come from? Everyone on earth knows that Jews are rich. Thus, in the context of the decline of national power, it became inevitable that Hitler would reach out to the wealthy Jews.
In 1933, the German Nazi Party led by Hitler began to be in power as a fascist, and the Nazi Party carried out large-scale anti-Semitic activities as soon as it came to power. The Nazi Party also exploited the hatred of the German masses at the time for the Treaty of Versailles to incite revanchist sentiments and transfer them to the Jews. They plundered the wealth of the Jews and expelled them from the country, which led to the current economic recovery in Germany.
Hearing this, Fan Bingbing and others had a deeper understanding of today's Germany.
"Mr. Wang, this is also related to our mission this time, right?" Zhou Zhen thought for a while and interjected.
"Yes, this time, Lieutenant Colonel Zhou, Captain Cheng, and Second Lieutenant Fan, you also have a mission, which is to bring the first batch of Jews we recruited back to China by the way, and make sure to ensure their safety."
"Jews," all three exclaimed at the same time
The streets of Berlin have been tense lately, and the conditions of the Jews have deteriorated since 1935 when Hitler introduced a bill restricting Jewish rights.
Beginning in May 1937, there was a mass deportation of Jews in Germany, with thousands of Jews having their shops, houses, and property confiscated and then expelled from Germany.
Spoh, Chinese New Year's Eve, an engineer at Rheinmetall, was fired last month at the same time as his wife, a teacher, for the simple reason that you are Jewish.
Yesterday, a group of secret police broke into Spoh's house, kicked out the family, and confiscated all their possessions. and announced that the family had confiscated everything except for the clothes and books that they were allowed to carry with them.
Pol was forced to sleep in the church with his wife and three children last night, and was surprised to find that there were hundreds of Jews in the church who had the same fate as his family yesterday, and Spoh immediately realized that this was a premeditated mass deportation of Jews, and that this was just the beginning.
In the early hours of this morning, before dawn, a government official broke into the church and announced to all the people in the church that they must leave Germany within five days, otherwise the German government will no longer guarantee their personal safety.
This news hit all the Jews like a thunderbolt from the sky, and all the Jews were stunned, God, what is wrong with this country? What's going on?
Spall's wife, March, was a virtuous woman, and she comforted her three children while holding her husband's arm tightly, her big blue eyes full of worry.
"My dear, what are we going to do? Do you really want to leave Germany? But where can we go? March, with her three children in her arms, looked at her husband with concern.
"Dad, why can't we go back to our own house and sleep in church instead?" The second daughter, who was only seven years old, asked her father puzzled.
"Ruili, don't talk nonsense" The eldest son, who was already fourteen years old, comforted his sister sensibly.
Spoh's mind was in turmoil at this time, and now that the world was full of anti-Semitic trends, he felt for the first time that the world was so big, but there was no place for his family. Although the hesitation in his heart was so strong, he still had to calm down and comfort his wife and children: "Don't worry, my dear, everything will be fine, the world is so big, there will always be a place for us." ”
At this time, a young Asian man in his twenties walked into the church, and he announced in his unfamiliar German that the province of Chahar was now recruiting a variety of talents. Anyone with a skill can report to the office in Berlin in Chahar Province, and you can get a ticket to Chahar Province after filling out the form.
With that, the Asian man left dozens of flyers and left.
"Oh God, can anyone tell me where Huaxia is? And where is this Chahar province? A middle-aged man next to him exclaimed in surprise.
The Spools were also curious to pick up a leaflet and look at it, only to see that it was written in German and Hebrew about the various types of talents that Chahar needed. There are a variety of job postings written on it, including skilled workers, teachers, engineers, drivers, accountants, cashiers, and so on.
After reading the leaflet, in the words of a gentleman next to him, almost all occupations were included except for thieves.
"Oh dear, look. They also recruit English and German teachers, as well as engineers from all walks of life, and we can all find jobs in Chahar. March looked at the flyer and said in surprise.
Unlike his wife, Spohel focused more on Chahar's social environment and the attitude of the locals towards Jews. Spohr knew that not only Germany, but also Britain, France, and other European countries were now treating the Jews badly, and he did not want Chahar to be the beginning of a new catastrophe.
Let's take a look at what we're saying, Spoh muttered.
By the next day, more and more Jews were being driven out of their neighborhoods and sleeping on the streets.
Seeing this, Spoher knew that he could not wait, and he resolutely rushed to the Chahar office in Berlin, Germany, located at 65 Riskol Strasse, as stated in the leaflet.
Once there, the Spohs were shocked to see that Skoll Street was already crowded with Jews who had been deported.
