July 1946, Shinjuku-ku, Tokyo, Japan. This is an extremely beautiful, very typical Japanese-style high-end house, divided into two floors, a total of ten rooms, each room is extremely luxuriously furnished, but at this time there are only two people, to be precise, two beautiful people.

An extremely stout soldier said to another black-haired soldier who looked a little more handsome, "Captain Downing, are you still satisfied with this house?" ”

Captain Downing replied with a little hesitation: "This house is indeed very beautiful, and the location is good, but Lieutenant Mack, presumably the rent here will not be very cheap, right?" ”

Mike patted Downing on the shoulder and smiled, "My lovely Captain Downing, you don't have to worry about this, the rent of this house is only $27 a month, and you won't be able to afford it with your army captain's allowance, right?" ”

Downing was surprised and asked, "It's unbelievable, such a nice house is only $27 a month?" Can the homeowner agree? ”

Mike shrugged his shoulders and replied, "What's hard to believe, Tony, you have to remember that Japan now belongs to us, the United States, and we are the real masters of this land." So where are there any homeowners? The house we look at, that's ours, the so-called rent is just a meaning, you can pay it once a year, or once every ten years, as long as you remember that there is such a thing. ”

Mack's words Downing fell into deep thought, in fact, he is not the real US Army Captain Downing, his real identity is Tang Ning, a pharmaceutical accountant from the Chinese Hospital in X City, China in 2015, after a drunken time, when he woke up to find that he had actually become a captain staff officer of the US Army stationed in Japan, Tony Downing, and the year was 1946. Although Tang Ning usually reads a lot of time-traveling novels, when it really happened to him, it still took him more than a month to gradually get used to it, but fortunately, he has been spending time at sea on a troop carrier during this time.

When Mike saw Downing like this, he said self-righteously, "Oh, poor Tony, is it not entirely healed of your illness at sea?" It's okay, it's normal, I was like this when I first came over, it will be good to get used to it in a few days. ”

Tang Ning replied smoothly: "Thank you, I do still have a little headache from time to time, and I always feel as if I am still on that moving boat." ”

Mike patted him on the shoulder: "It's okay, just rest for two days." Well, if you're happy with this house, then come back with me to check in, and pick your six servants by the way. ”

Tang Ning opened his mouth wide in shock again and said, "What? Six servants? Why do I need so many servants? ”

Mike had to stop and explain again, "My friend, don't be so surprised all the time, okay?" As I said, we are the masters of this land, so isn't it common to have a few servants as masters? And the salaries of these servants are paid by the Japanese government, and you don't have to pay for them, so why not? ”

Tang Ning couldn't help but be suffocated when he heard this, and it seemed that he still underestimated the super-national treatment of the U.S. military in Japan, although he had heard of it in his previous life, and he had inquired about it when he was on the boat, but when he really faced it, it was still beyond his expectations, and on the first day he went ashore, he looked like a hillbilly, but he still asked: "But where should I go to find a servant?" ”

Mike dragged Tang Ning and said: "Don't worry, this kind of thing will naturally be done, you can be responsible for the selection, by the way, you must be careful when choosing those maids, if there is no suitable one, you can go to the school, hospital or women's company to choose directly, but don't go to Pan Pan on the street, they are not clean." ”

The Pan Pan that Mike refers to refers to the Japanese woman who specializes in the skin and meat business of the US military, and on the streets near the US military station, there are hundreds of Pan Pan Yan Yan waiting for business almost at any time. The word Pan Pan originally meant to be a contemptuous term for women in Southeast Asia who were easier to get started with, but I didn't expect it to become a specialized industry in Japan, of course, these are all things that Downing heard from other American soldiers on the ship.

After Downing followed Quartermaster Michael back to the quartermaster office to complete the housing formalities, Michael called a middle-aged Japanese man named Jiro Morimura to help Downing find a servant.

Although this guy named Jiro Morimura was short in stature, obscene-looking, and full of yellow teeth, he spoke English quite well, and his attitude was even more groveling, and he bowed deeply to Tang Ning and said: "Dear Captain Tang Ning, don't worry, no matter what kind of servant you are looking for, I can help you find it." Afterwards, Tang Ning learned that this guy named Jiro Morimura obtained this beauty by giving his wife and daughter to the quartermaster to enjoy.

That's right, this is indeed a beautiful difference, because now jobs in Japan are extremely scarce, especially women, almost can't find a job, and serving as a US military officer, not only can you get the salary given by the government, but also have the opportunity to get tips and other benefits, so there are a lot of people who want to win this opportunity, and Morimura Jiro because he can get a job with the quartermaster, so everyone who gets a job opportunity through him has to hand over two months' salary to him, even if he is so dark-hearted, there are still a lot of people who come to him.

However, at this time, Tang Ning didn't know the doorway here, so he thought about it for a while and said: "I don't need so many people here for the time being, just help me find a cook who can cook both Chinese food and simple Western food, and then find a washerwoman and a manservant, and the rest are not needed." ”

When Morimura Jiro saw that Tang Ao only needed three people, he was immediately a little anxious, because there are not many new American ** officials now, so he has accumulated a lot of manpower in his hands, this time he finally met an officer with a limit of six servants, he naturally refused to miss the opportunity, so he took a step forward and said in a low voice: "Dear Captain Tangning, anyway, you don't have to pay, it's all paid by our government, so why don't you want a few servants, how nourishing life is like that." And even if you have some special requests, I can meet them all, and I have a lot of girls who are beautiful and obedient. ”

Tang Ning only understood what Morimura Jiro meant at this time, but to be honest, he was not particularly interested in this, not that he was cold, but just now, he followed Mike to Pan Pan Street once, although the number of women there shocked Tang Ning very much, there were really hundreds of people, but these women really made him unappetizing. Because after all, he came from 2015, and he didn't look down on these short, malnourished, heavy makeup, round faces and eyebrows Japanese women.
