Du Yuesheng this man should be no stranger to many people, because he is a very famous figure in Shanghai Beach, a big gangster in the Green Gang, and almost no one dares to provoke him. However, he did not have such a high status at the beginning, at first he was just a nameless and surnameless boy, relying on his own efforts to sit in the position of the big man of the Green Gang.
In the eyes of many people, a gangster like him will definitely only find ways to make money and let himself live a luxurious life, will not do some serious things at all, and will not have patriotic feelings. In fact, this point is misunderstood by everyone, although Du Yuesheng is said to be a gangster, he is also very patriotic, once the country has a need, he will be obligated to rush up, he has also made great contributions to the cause of China's liberation.
For example, he actively participated in the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, and he also served as the vice president of the Red Cross Society of China and did a lot of good deeds. Later, when he arrived in Hong Kong, he was also using his power to help China. Before his death, Du Yuesheng told his son Du Weishan that he wanted to contribute to the country and donate the ancient coins he collected to the country, which was his only wish. Today we will talk about the story of Du Yuesheng's son Du Weishan: he is the descendant of the gang boss Du Yuesheng, who donated antiques to the country, worth more than 1 billion.
Du Weishan also always remembered the teachings of his father Du Yuesheng, hoping to help his father fulfill his last wishes, he was brought to Taiwan by his mother to live after his father's death, although he was in Taiwan, he never forgot his father's wish, and always remembered that he was a Chinese. After that, he donated all 367 ancient coins to the Shanghai Museum, fulfilling his father's wish.
Many people may think that 367 ancient coins should not be much wealth, there is nothing remarkable, in fact, this is a big mistake. The price of these 367 coins is very amazing, because these ancient coins come from the Sassanid Dynasty more than 1,000 years ago, when the technology to create gold coins can be said to be very immature, and very few gold coins can be created. After the fall of the Sassanid Dynasty, there are naturally fewer and fewer ancient coins that can be left, and these ancient coins also have a very high value, and the museum in Xinjiang, China, has only preserved two or three pieces, which can be said to be very rare.
The Shanghai Museum wanted to borrow an ancient coin from the Xinjiang Museum to exhibit, but in the end it only got a broken coin, and Du Weishan, knowing about it, donated all 367 ancient coins to the Shanghai Museum, including more than 200 gold coins and more than 100 silver coins, which are conservatively estimated to be worth more than one billion.
Du Weishan's selfless dedication to the country is not something that many people can do, which shows that Du Yuesheng, like his descendants, has always maintained a patriotic heart.
