Is there really a rule in Manchukuo that northeast people are not allowed to eat rice?

There is such a rule. At that time, China residents in the "Puppet Manchukuo" area were mainly Han, Manchu and Mongolian. Political immigrants under Japanese control are mainly Japanese and Koreans. Residents are divided by ethnic groups, and there are grade differences. It is stipulated that local non-Japanese subjects, Koreans and Koreans are forbidden to eat rice and white flour. Once discovered, they will be regarded as "economic criminals".

Nowadays, when it comes to northeast rice, Chinese people are familiar with it. In particular, the phrase "When the puppet Manchukuo is mentioned, Northeasters will not fight together". . At that time, the northeast people became conquered, eating acorn powder, wearing sacks and eating rice noodles became economic criminals, and thousands of people starved to death and were tortured to death ... "This sentence was once quoted by many novels and online articles and became one of the evidences of Japan's invasion of China.

Extended data:

Because at that time, the northeast was really not rich in rice. It's not like nobody eats it. It should be said that only a few immigrants south of the Yellow River will plant a small amount. At that time, the famous crop in Northeast China was soybean. 1929 The soybean area in Northeast China is 3,992.73 million hectares, of which Jilin Province and Heilongjiang Province account for 77%, and the proportion of soybean planting in some counties of Jilin Province and Heilongjiang Province is extremely high, reaching more than 40%.

Now, the rice we eat in the northeast used to come from Hokkaido, Japan. Why do you say that? Because the whole of Japan is suitable for rice varieties planted in the northeast, and the rice produced in Hokkaido, Japan has the most similar taste. The earliest northeast residents ate rice as the staple food, not rice, but millet. The famous foster millet.

After the September 18th Incident broke out, a large number of Japanese immigrants entered the Northeast and found that the Northeast was particularly suitable for growing rice. In addition to the Japanese reclamation group planting rice, the people in Northeast China were forced to pay taxes. Now you should understand why it is so dangerous to eat rice in the cities occupied by Japanese troops in Northeast China.

Because at that time, people in Northeast China basically didn't eat rice, but only pasta. At that time, only Japanese people in northeast cities could eat rice. Then the person who goes to the northeast to eat rice must be the number one suspect of the Japanese gendarmerie, and it is an inevitable reason to arrest and torture.
