A long, long time ago, Zhang's mansion was notoriously wealthy, and the old man had been in business all his life and had done a lot of business.
It is precisely with his extraordinary intellectual insight and business methods that he has achieved a lot of success, and he has the family property he has now.
When he was young, because the old man was often busy with business, he never married a wife and had children.
On a business trip, the old man met his current eldest son, Zhang Yu.
It was pouring rain, and the old man and the housekeeper were looking for the inn with an umbrella, when they saw a child with a thatched head curled up not far away.
At this time, the old man hurriedly stepped forward and handed his umbrella to the child, and the child looked up at the old man and said, "Thank you, but I don't need an umbrella, if you can, can you buy me a steamed bun?" I'm so hungry!"
Without saying a word, the old man helped the child up and invited him to eat with him.
After entering the restaurant, as soon as the dishes were served, the child looked at the various delicacies and didn't know where to start.
"Eat it, kid," said the old man kindly.
In this way, the child devoured it, and the old man looked at the poor child in front of him and said, "What about your family?"
The child replied, "My father is dead, my mother has run away, I have no family!"
"Child, would you like to come with me? Learn to do business with me, and if you have money to earn, you will never go hungry!"
Hearing the old man say this, the child hurriedly knelt on the ground and kowtowed, "I do!
After eating, the master arranged a room for him, and early the next morning, they set off home together.
When he arrived at home, the child was respectful to everyone and obeyed what the master said.
This made the lord very pleased, and not long after, on the 40th birthday of the lord, he announced that he would accept the child as his son and named him Zhang Yu.
With the help of his son, the old man naturally saved a lot of worry, and then met Aunt Chun, and the two soon got married, and gave birth to a young son, named Zhang Lei.
Zhang Yu, who has a younger brother, is more diligent and hardworking, whether it is the way of doing business or the way of dealing with people, Zhang Yu has the shadow of the old man.
Looking at the excellent Zhang Yu, the master was naturally very pleased.
But Zhang Lei is not so obedient, he has been very naughty since he was a child, and often makes the old man angry.
When he was in school, Zhang Lei deliberately made trouble, made the lecturer angry, and bullied his classmates, etc......
But because Zhang Lei is his only son, the family dotes on him very much, as long as it is his request, the old man will basically agree.
Unexpectedly, it was such unconditional doting that caused Zhang Lei to become a person who did not learn and did not know how to do it.
Zhang Lei spends his days in chaos all day long, proficient in drinking and gambling, and his family's business has always been run by his eldest brother Zhang Yu.
After a long time, Zhang Yu couldn't stand it anymore, he complained to his father, Zhang Lei's various behaviors, and the old man was also very helpless.
"Alas, who let me give birth to such a bad son! Don't worry, son, my father knows in his heart, as long as he doesn't harm his life, you let him make it!"
The days went on like this, and suddenly one day, the old man fell down the stone steps and was unconscious for several days.
Zhang Yu and Zhang Lei were in a hurry, and they both stayed in front of the old man's bed.
Early in the morning of the third day, the old man suddenly woke up, looked at his son, he was very happy, and then decided to make a will, because he felt that he would not live long, and the major events in the family had to be agreed on quickly.
He asked his two sons to step down, and instructed the housekeeper to fetch paper and ink, and wrote a will.
Zhang Lei, who saw the will, instantly burst into a thunderstorm, and at night, he quietly slipped into his father's house and complained: "Dad, you are partial, why only give me one percent and give him ninety percent, are you sick and confused, I am your own son!"
The old man had long expected that Zhang Lei would come to him for a theory, so he said to Zhang Lei: "Son, I have left you far more than that, and you will get it in the future!"
Hearing this, Zhang Lei happily left the room, but he didn't expect that the old man would pass away early the next morning.
Zhang Lei never saw his "extra wealth", so he took his money and left the house angrily.
Zhang Lei ate, drank and had fun everywhere, and soon the money was spent completely.
Zhang Lei had no choice but to lick his face and go home again, but he didn't expect Zhang Yu to be strange at all.
It turned out that his father had long expected such an outcome, so he deliberately did not distribute the property equally, and Zhang Yu's premise for taking ninety percent was that he must help his younger brother tide over the difficulties.
Hearing this, Zhang Lei cried bitterly, and immediately decided to change his past mistakes and follow his brother to seriously learn Xi way of doing business.
A few years have passed, and Zhang Lei and Zhang Yu have become well-known businessmen!
