The dazzling torches, the raging crowds, and the glass on the ground made Poluman keep running. He wanted to escape from here, avoid this lawless world, and find a quiet and peaceful environment.
However, it seemed that the running Poluman attracted their attention, and the crowd with unclear faces began to chase him. At first, only a small number of people were chasing him, and then like a snowball, more and more people were chasing him, and finally more and more people were chasing him.
Everyone was chasing him. This scared him so much that he kept running and ran with all his strength.
His running chest felt like it was about to be torn apart, but he did not dare to stop. At this moment, he felt extremely lonely, but he had a family and children, and he knew that he could not be caught by these people.
Suddenly I felt that my feet were empty, and I fell to the ground, and the crowd behind me immediately rushed up.
"don't want……"
Poluman suddenly shouted and woke up. When he saw his wife beside him, his heart felt relieved again.
When the wife who was woken up saw her husband who was turning blue with fright, she couldn't help but ask, "Poluman, are you having a nightmare again?"
"Yes, I had a nightmare again. I dreamed that I was being chased by a group of people, and they all stared at me fiercely. I could only keep running, keep running, just like what we encountered last November.
scene."
What Poluman was talking about was the organized persecution of the Jews in Germany, which was the famous Kristallnacht. It was obvious that the Poluman family encountered a horrific scene at that time, which he cannot forget to this day.
After hearing what he said, his wife hugged him and comforted him. "Let go of your worries. We have arrived in Romania. No one will bully us anymore, and no one will put us in a concentration camp."
Poluman, who was lying in his wife's arms, followed his wife's words and said, "Yes, no one will bully us anymore, and no one will target us anymore."
As Poruman talked, he couldn't help but say when he thought of the current predicament. "But when we came to Romania, we had nothing, no house, no job. And we still owed a foreign debt of 3,000 lei, all of which...
Need to pay it back.”
The situation that Poruman encountered is the situation that every foreign Jew now has. Because Romania paid Germany and Italy at the price of 1,000 lei per person, so at present, except for a small number of Jews in Germany and Italy, they can only
Travel to Romania.
In addition to the payment fee of one thousand lei, the transportation fee, food cost, residential living expenses and other expenses are added together. The Romanian government calculates the price at two thousand lei. This is for every Jew entering Romania from the two countries,
A fee that must be paid. Because they are all empty-handed, except for the clothes on their bodies and a few changes of clothes in their luggage, they have nothing else.
Of course, Romania takes into account the actual difficulties of the Jews and does not require them to return it immediately. However, the debt will be repaid after the third month. The monthly repayment is not much more than 60 lei. It only takes 6 years to pay it off. Compared with later generations
Certain loans are much more conscientious.
Jews who have not paid off their debts are not allowed to leave Romania, and they are all living together. Their own people are arranged to be responsible for management. At the same time, if someone escapes, the person in charge will be jointly and severally liable and bear the remaining debts.
Logically speaking, no one should be willing to hold such a position, but in fact there are many people who are willing to hold this position, and they are generally willing to do this work. However, they generally have joined the Zionist Organization, and this is also the official date of the Jewish Council.
Get involved with one of these guarantees.
With them knowing everything, Romania is not afraid of where these Jews will go. Of course, except for these grassroots managers who are all Jewish, other management generally use Romanian officials. After all, this is Romanian territory, and it is impossible for Jews to pop up.
"Autonomy", although this is only a temporary move, it still will not give any chance.
Judging from the measures established by Romania, they are not very good for these Jews. But compared with other countries, this is already a very good measure.
Of course, if you have money or can borrow it, that’s fine. The Romanian government won’t care where you go. But this is easier said than done. The rich and famous have already left through various channels, and the rest
They are basically ordinary Jews. Where did they find their way out of here? If Romania had not extended a helping hand, their fate would have been basically doomed.
"I went to the church today, and the rabbi said that he has just been assigned and can only go to the employment agency to find a job. But the good news is that the rabbi said that the church plans to open a kindergarten to help people take care of their children."
Yes, the church is also an important social place for Jews, but now that everyone is new here, it is a good way to help each other. And currently, helping to take care of the children is also a good move for everyone.
In addition, Romania currently has opened schools, hospitals, police stations and other public institutions in the newly built communities prepared for them. Except for a few institutions in powerful departments, all others are run by Jews themselves.
After the wife finished talking about the information she got in the church, she asked her husband, "What's your opinion, Poluman?"
Facing his wife's inquiry, Poluman wanted to deal with the information he saw in the employment agency yesterday, so he could only reply with a sigh. "I have no opinion, you decide."
Poluman's words made his wife make up her mind. "It seems that Bernie can only be sent to kindergarten. Due to the pressure at home, we need to go out to work."
The two made a decision and hugged each other to sleep. In the early morning of the next day, after having breakfast, they simply packed up and left their son with a neighbor for a while before going out.
When they were in the neighborhood, they felt that there were a lot of people going out today. Needless to say, they were all looking for jobs just like the Polumans. When they arrived at the employment agency, it was a sea of people, and the crowds filled the entire place.
Every street was blocked. And there were many people like the two of them who kept adding to it from everywhere.
"How many people should be here?"
The wife looked at the crowded crowd in front of her in surprise.
"It should be no less than ten thousand people. When we came here yesterday, there were not so many people."
Seeing such a large number of people, the two people immediately asked others to inquire. It turned out that because there were too many people today, they no longer had direct talks with the company because they could not accommodate them. The agency would assign them first according to individual occupations, and then batch by batch.
talk.
After hearing this, the two of them immediately lined up.
The Jews who came to Romania were generally the same. They were assigned jobs as soon as they arrived in Romania.
Their participation greatly supplemented Romania and ensured Romania's wartime production.
