In many film and television dramas, we can see Shanghai during the Republic of China period, when Shanghai was a place where rich and famous people gathered, and if you want to gain a foothold in Shanghai at that time, there are some very powerful characters, and among these powerful characters, we cannot fail to mention one person, he is Du Yuesheng, the Shanghai figure.
In that chaotic era, Du Yuesheng's name was still very loud in Shanghai, and in Shanghai he ate black and white, at that time many Celebrities in Shanghai had to give Du Yuesheng face, and Du Yuesheng's ability was beyond the reach of many people, think of Du Yuesheng from a small on the streets of Shanghai, step by step became a prominent figure on the beach, in which the heartache of the experience and his extraordinary wisdom are naturally unimaginable to ordinary people.
And people who know that the era knows that the founding of the Green Gang was a business team that operated shipping and trading, and later because there were more and more docks in various places, gangs were also set up in various places, and at the peak of the Green Gang, the number of people was as many as tens of thousands, and at that time, if there was no huge economic strength, it was impossible to become the leader of the Green Gang.
And through Du Yuesheng's ten years of hard work in Shanghai, he also won a huge wealth for himself, so people will become one of the three giants of Shanghai at that time, since it is a giant family property naturally a lot, according to the data records, Du Yuesheng's peak period, family property combined, can exceed the total assets of the three banks in Shanghai at that time.
It is possible to say that his family property is a bit vague in the numbers, but from some data you can see his rich family property, at that time Du Yuesheng had ten cars in his hand, and a license plate at that time was worth twenty-two gold, then you can imagine how much a car is worth, and at that time there were cars on it was already considered a rich man, Du Yuesheng had ten, almost like a car as a toy.
And Du Yuesheng's hired drivers and security personnel have a platoon of numbers, the salaries and expenses of these personnel are huge, and at that time Du Yuesheng's annual expenditure was nearly two million oceans, and the wage income of ordinary people in Shanghai at that time was only one hundred oceans a month, it is conceivable that Du Yuesheng's wealth at that time, if converted into today's wealth, it is estimated that the assets have long been hundreds of millions.
The famous landmark Du Mansion in Shanghai was also built by Du Yuesheng, who spent 500,000 oceans when it was built, and at that time, it only cost six or seven hundred oceans to buy an ordinary house on it, which can be seen from the degree of Du Yuesheng's local tycoon.
Although Du Yuesheng's property is very much, but he also regards money very lightly, as long as there are friends who need help, he will help them, even if it is a civilian who finds Du Yuesheng, he will help him, and because of his lack of attention to money, the family property left for posterity when he died is not much, but the IOU is a big meal, but before Du Yuesheng died, these IOUs were destroyed.
It is precisely because of Du Yuesheng's righteousness, although he has also made many mistakes in Shanghai Beach, but he has scattered his family wealth and finally won the respect of many people, so the evaluation of him in later generations is mostly righteousness and righteousness.
