Du Yuesheng is the hero of Shanghai Beach during the Republic of China period, although he is not as good as Dai Kasa, such an official background person, but he as the emperor of Shanghai Beach, but also the talk of people after tea and dinner, he from an apprentice of a fruit stall step by step to become the boss of the Shanghai Beach Green Gang, this is not what ordinary people can do, but also shows his extraordinary, but as the boss of the gang, he also did a lot of bad things, on the eve of the liberation of Shanghai, he was afraid of being settled old accounts, his family moved to Hong Kong, lived a relatively poor life in Hong Kong, and eventually died of illness in Hong Kong.
In 1951, Du Yuesheng was sick and bedridden, he also had a premonition that his time was short, so he let his daughter go to the bank to retrieve the safe where he was stored, because Du Yuesheng was the earth emperor on the beach before, the family felt that this may be his private money, it must be a lot, so everyone was very happy, thinking that Du Yuesheng was going to give them money, and when the safe was taken, Du Yuesheng opened it in front of everyone, but the things inside made them dumbfounded, where there was any money, it was all a bunch of IOUs.
Everyone picked up these IOUs and looked at them carefully, and found that the people who owed the money were either business elites or politicians of the Republic of China, and everyone looked at this pile of IOUs with stunned eyes, the least of these IOUs was 5,000 US dollars, and the most even reached 500 gold bars, and the debtor was Wang Xinheng, director of the Shanghai station of the Kuomintang Secrecy Bureau. Seeing the surprised look of the family, Du Yuesheng ordered to take a basin over, everyone was confused, did not know what Du Yuesheng wanted to do in the basin, only to see Du Yuesheng stuff all the IOUs into the basin and light a fire to clean up.
This scene made his family completely dumbfounded, these debts do not add up to a small amount, especially at the moment the family is not rich, why burn these IOUs, leaving a large inheritance to the children, even if you want to come back one or two percent is enough for the family to survive the difficulties, his children finally can't help asking him: "Why burn these IOUs?" Du Yuesheng said in a serious tone: "What is lent is money on the surface, but it is actually human feelings." Grateful, will always remember the good of the Du family! Those who are not grateful, if you go, you will bring you the disaster of killing yourself! I don't want my family to be in trouble when I die. Du Yuesheng burned these IOUs, which meant that other people's arrears were written off.
In fact, this is also the reason why Du Yuesheng can succeed, he has his own principles as a person, not only so, he also did this, when Chen Shichang's son was in trouble outside, he owed a lot of debts, the creditor finally forced to the door, not to pay back to cut off his hands and feet, Chen Shichang had no way to ask Du Yuesheng for help, and Chen Shichang was kind to Du Yuesheng, Du Yuesheng was also a person who knew how to be grateful, and immediately sent someone to send twenty-five thousand silver dollars to put this matter to rest, and then Chen Shichang's son caused trouble again, Du Yuesheng let people send twenty thousand silver dollars, Chen Shichang was grateful, but Du Yuesheng said, "Money is something outside the body, so Lang is fine." Later, Jin Rong was kidnapped by Lu Yongxiang's son Lu Xiaojia, originally Du Yuesheng could take this opportunity to sit in the position of the boss of the Qing Gang, but he did not forget to thank Jin Rong and spent 3 million yuan to redeem The Golden Rong, which is Du Yuesheng's code of conduct and the fundamental reason why he can make a fortune.
Du Yuesheng's last words before his death in 1951 were: "I have no hope, but there is still hope for all of you, and there is still hope for China." "Throughout his life, he was able to have such achievements, not by knowledge, nor by conspiracy and trickery, but by the two words of being a man, and he relied on his principles of doing things to make his brothers willing to be born and die for him, which is also the greatest ability of a person to settle down.
