Zhang Zuolin was born in 1875 in Fengtian Haicheng County, his father's name was Zhang Youcai was a businessman, Zhang Zuolin was the third oldest in the family, at that time Zhang Zuolin's family was still quite solid, because his father Zhang Youcaishang, the income was a little higher than ordinary people. Later, Zhang Youcai became addicted to smoking and gambling, and the shop he ran soon closed down. The family became poorer and poorer, and Zhang Zuolin dropped out of private school within a few years of private school with the financial support of friends and relatives. Later, Zhang Youcai was killed by the creditor because of gambling debts, and when Zhang Zuolin was only 15 years old when he learned about his father, he and his second brother Zhang Zuofu discussed to avenge his father. With borrowed guns, they climbed over the wall and entered the enemy's house, but unfortunately, they were bumped into by one of the enemy's maids. The maid was stunned, thinking that a bandit was coming, and shouted. Zhang Zuolin also panicked at this time, the earth gun went off the fire, and the maid was killed. When the Zhang brothers saw this, they climbed over the wall again and fled. After that, the Qiu family reported to the officials, and the official government quickly found out that it was Zhang Zuolin's brothers who did it. He immediately sent someone to arrest the Zhang brothers. Zhang Zuolin immediately fled when he saw this, while his brother Zhang Fu took a step slower. Caught by the government. After approval, the government believed that Zhang Zuolin was a murderer and was sentenced to death, and Zhang Zuolin was sentenced to 10 years in prison as an accessory.
Zhang Zuolin saw that he had killed someone, and he knew that he could not stay here for too long, so he soon ran to his grandmother's house. He was wanted by the government and could not stay in his hometown, and soon after Zhang Zuolin's mother returned to her mother's house with Zhang Zuolin's two older brothers. In this line, in that era when it was not rich, there were four more people eating, making the family almost reach a state of constraint.
Zhang Zuolin saw it in his eyes, and after careful consideration, decided to leave home and go to the rivers and lakes by himself. At that time, due to the corruption and incompetence of the government, many people were displaced and miserable. Zhang Zuolin first sold buns on the street, and later learned carpentry. After that, he had to wander around because of gambling. Finally, he arrived at the village of Takakan in Oishibashi City. I found a big car shop to do miscellaneous work, which seemed to be a kind of low-level work at the time.
Zhang Zuolin observed in the big car shop that most of the merchants who came to live in the shop were merchants. The northeast is vast, and at that time, the traffic was mainly based on horse-drawn carriages, and the distance between the two counties was hundreds of kilometers, and it often took several days to reach the destination. As a result, the demand for horses was very large at that time. After all, the horse is an animal, sick also need to be treated, just Zhang Zuolin's big car shop has a veterinarian, Zhang Zuolin often has nothing to talk to the veterinarian, and slowly learned some veterinary skills. Later, Zhang Zuolin felt that he had learned almost everything, so he opened his own veterinary shop. It was not cattle, sheep and horses and other animals. In today's society, bandits run rampant, and bandits mainly rely on horses to negotiate with the government. With his veterinary knowledge, he opened a livestock shop, cured many cattle, sheep and horses and other animals, and became a local veterinarian. At that time, bandits were rampant in the northeast region, and most of the bandits used horses as a means of transportation, and the bandits' war horses would also get sick, and if they were sick, they would have to be treated, and if there were no horses, they could not negotiate with the officers and soldiers who were pursuing, so the bandits made rules: they should not rob veterinarians, and they also respected Lu doctors well. Because Zhang Zuolin's medical skills are ok, it is inevitable to deal with bandits. Slowly, I also gained a certain understanding of the bandit industry.
