Northwest Years 西北岁月 Episode 15

Liu Renshan regretted and blamed himself so much that he cried bitterly in bed and hurt his daughter, but he had to marry the girl off. Liu Qiaocui insisted on not getting married. Upon seeing this, Doctor Zhang comforted the father and daughter not to worry, and then went to Xi Zhongxun to report the situation. According to Dr. Zhang, the policies formulated by the border region government were originally designed to benefit the country and the people. However, since the circulation of legal currency was banned, the price of border currency has dropped too much. A load of salt used to cost 100 yuan, but now the price has increased several times. Salt sellers All on strike.

Xi Zhongxun took this matter to heart, and through Lin Boqu's introduction, he met with the Minister of Finance, Huo Weide, and explained straight to the point that a transition period was needed to replace the circulation of legal currency with border currency. It would be unrealistic to completely replace legal currency with everything. In addition, the work of transporting salt Big questions remain.

Lin Boqu then submitted Xi Zhongxun's report to Mao Zedong. Mao Zedong praised it and wrote him a reply immediately. The heads of each county and district reported the situation to Xi Zhongxun. Regarding the transportation of salt, Xi Zhongxun suggested that we should focus on it. Considering that some salt sellers have suffered losses, they should buy at high prices to offset the losses.

Liu Qiaocui was imprisoned for speaking out. Xi Zhongxun went to see her in person. After understanding the general situation, he followed her to visit Liu Renshan at home. Since Liu Qiaocui was forced to marry by her family, Xi Zhongxun told Liu Renshan that what we are talking about now is freedom of marriage and should no longer be arranged as before. Liu Renshan said that his daughter had arranged a baby marriage because he hoped that she could get married soon. Xi Zhongxun saw that Liu Qiaocui liked to sing opera, so he not only persuaded Liu Renshan to give up the idea of ​​marrying his daughter, but also encouraged Liu Qiaocui to sing opera, and left some money for the father and daughter before leaving.

Not long after, Li Sanwa graduated from the Second Division and was transferred to the Military Division Security Headquarters. Xi Zhongxun was a little surprised when he learned about it. From the bottom of his heart, he didn't want Li Sanwa to stay with him. After all, Li Dawa and Li Erwa had both died one after another, and he couldn't let anything happen to the only boy in the Li family again.

However, Li Sanwa insisted on staying and sat beside him crying. Seeing that Xi Zhongxun felt uncomfortable, she stopped objecting strongly. As the harvest approaches, the district invites the Bayi Opera Troupe to sing operas. As a result, Xi Zhongxun discovers that Liu Qiaocui is successful in learning operas. Today is her first time on stage to sing operas. Li Sanwa picked up Liu Qiaocui's jewelry and fell in love with her at first sight. She sat in the audience and watched intently. Liu Renshan was extremely surprised to learn that the opera singer was his daughter.

In the following days, although the Kuomintang die-hards pressed harder and continued to create friction, Xi Zhongxun was able to deal with it with ease. He led the Guanzhong military and civilians to adapt to local conditions, actively organized people to transport salt, promoted the gradual circulation of border currency in the Guanzhong zone, and developed the economy.

In July 1942, Xi Zhongxun left the Guanzhong Division where he had worked for six years and was transferred to Yan'an. In the autumn of the same year, a meeting of senior cadres of the Northwest Bureau discussed the issue of erroneous "elimination of counterrevolutionaries" in northern Shaanxi. Xi Zhongxun made a bold speech at the meeting, pointing out that "leftist" mistakes had caused great harm to the development of the party. The Central Committee of the Communist Party of China officially made the "Decision on Reexamining the Issue of "Eradication of Counterrevolutionaries" in Northern Shaanxi (including the Shaanxi-Gansu Border and Northern Shaanxi) in 1935, which pointed out that the "elimination of counterrevolutionaries" in northern Shaanxi in 1935 was Wrong. This kind of "purge of counter-revolutionaries" has caused great evil to the revolution. The Northwest Bureau has been entrusted with the responsibility of explaining to the wronged comrades, examining and reinstating the party membership of comrades who died in the "purge of counter-revolutionaries", and properly condolences and resettled their relatives. .

After the meeting ended, Qin Mulan sat in a chair with tears in her hands, holding Zu Lie's hat in her hands, feeling happy that Zu Lie and others could finally rest in peace. But even so, Qin Mulan was still a little scared when she recalled that she was worried that similar situations would happen in the future. Xi Zhongxun could not give Qin Mulan a guarantee, saying that as long as they adhere to the realistic spirit of the Communists and adhere to the correct line and stance, no matter what happens, they can be solved.
