In the chaotic era, there is always the existence of tyrants, no matter in what period there will be such a character, in that era of homeland chaos, social turmoil, the people are not happy about life, there will always be the existence of the underworld, the Republic of China period there is a shanghai beach gangster called Du Yuesheng, his life is full of legends, full of stories, from a hairy boy who wanders the street, until he sits on the first chair of the Shanghai beach green gang.
From a penniless poor civilian boy to a million-dollar entrepreneur, we have to admit that there is a unique atmosphere in him, perhaps the care of the heavens, perhaps his own efforts, no matter what, his story is always full of shock when people talk about it.
Du Yuesheng's glorious period in Shanghai is now unimaginable, now we know that the world's richest man, most of them are so rich by savings over the years, but now is a peacetime, peacetime has a stable social environment, so people's consumption level is also very high, so it can drive economic development, but at that time, Shanghai Beach is not like now.
At that time, Shanghai Beach was very chaotic, every industrial chain, there were underworld inclusions, Du Yuesheng had served as the chairman of 72 companies during his peak, and all industries in Shanghai, including finance, transportation, industry and commerce, culture, and even politics, had Du Yuesheng's figure, in addition to the names of these chairmen, he also had a series of names such as president and consultant.
It was hard to imagine how rich Du Yuesheng was at his peak. At that time, the Republic of China still had old stocks, although the people were not very rich in that era, but the stocks had been produced, and there was a better market environment, Du Yuesheng once controlled the stocks in Shanghai, and he also established his own company, his company was called Sanxin Company.
Du Yuesheng set up this company, he is not doing legitimate business, the Republic of China period opium is still popular among the major cities, Sanxin company was responsible for the sale of opium at that time, opium profits are very huge, at that time he almost monopolized the entire opium business in Shanghai Beach, if according to the current words, then this company is a drug trafficking company, and he is still a legal monopoly.
This gives the company a unique physique, the money he earns may not be able to imagine so far, and this company does not need to pay taxes to the government departments, the tax is originally a big head, Sanxin Company does not need to pay taxes, you can save a lot of money, after all, behind him is the Shanghai Youth Gang organization, the strength is very strong.
At that time, in 1919, the total annual financial revenue of the Republic of China government was only less than 300 million, and even in 1925, the total financial income of the Republic of China government was only a little more than 350 million, and it increased the income by 50 million in six years.
But at that time, Du Yuesheng's company could earn 60 million a year, and most of the annual fixed income was like this, there would not be too much fluctuation, what is this concept, put in the present, we may not be able to imagine, 60 million at that time was definitely a huge fast, ordinary people poor their lives, it is impossible to see so much money, but Du Yuesheng can easily do it.
According to common sense, so much money, Du Yuesheng simply can not spend it, after all, 60 million was definitely an astronomical number at that time, even if Du Yuesheng spent it lavishly, then he would definitely not face the dilemma of bankruptcy, but Du Yuesheng was different, every time at the end of the year, he was very short of money, Du Yuesheng's money was not spent by himself, most of the money he earned was distributed to his people, or taken to send warlords in other regions at that time.
After all, he is only a Shanghai Youth Gang organization, in the face of warlords in other regions are slightly weak, in order to do business, he can only go to some money, money is good to do things, this is the truth that Du Yuesheng has always believed, just Lu Yongxiang, Zhang Xueliang These people Du Yuesheng gave them a lot of money.
After all, there are many factions on the beach, whether on stage or offstage, whether the other party is a way or a refuge, Du Yuesheng is very generous, he is the kind of generous person, and every time he shoots is thousands of gold and silver, over time, most of the money he earns will flow out.
Regarding Du Yuesheng's life, people have mixed reviews and criticisms, some people think that Du Yuesheng is a green gang boss who does nothing wrong, and some people think that Du Yuesheng is a legendary generation of tyrants, these are the evaluations of Du Yuesheng by posterity, no matter what, Du Yuesheng has become a historical figure, and his story has slowly flowed with the long river of history.
