During the Republic of China, it was an era of change, social turmoil, and people lived in dire straits. However, even in this context, there are still some people who have been able to amass a lot of wealth, saving millions of dollars. There may not be many such people, but their presence undoubtedly added a different color to that era.
It was a spring afternoon, and the sun was shining through the clouds, warm and bright. I strolled through the bustling streets, lined with shops and people. I am in the whirlpool of this era, feeling its prosperity and hustle and bustle.
Suddenly, a melodious sound of the piano came, and I followed the sound to see a middle-aged man in a robe sitting in front of a teahouse, stroking the guqin and playing beautiful music. I was fascinated by the sound of the piano and couldn't help but get closer.
"What a song of mountains and rivers!" I exclaimed.
The man raised his head, smiled slightly, and said, "Sir praised it falsely, but he was just idle and played a song to entertain himself." ”
I struck up with him and learned that he was a wealthy businessman named Mr. Lee. He told me that he had been out and about since he was young, and that he had amassed a fortune after going through hardships.
"Then your current savings have probably reached a million, right?" I asked curiously.
Mr. Li smiled and did not answer my question directly, but asked rhetorically: "In this era, how many people can have millions of deposits?"
I was lost in thought. Yes, during the Republic of China, the society was turbulent and wars were frequent, and it was not easy to save his life, let alone accumulate huge wealth. However, Mr. Lee's success has shown me the tenacity and wisdom of human nature.
As we continued to chat, Mr. Li shared with me his entrepreneurial experience and life insights. "Wealth is not the whole story of life, but it does give people a sense of security," he said. With wealth, you can better protect yourself and your family, and you can also have more opportunities to pursue your dreams. ”
I nodded deeply, and I couldn't help but feel a wave of respect in my heart. In this era, people like Mr. Li who can accumulate wealth with their own efforts and wisdom are indeed worthy of admiration.
However, I also understand that such people were only a minority at the time. Most people still live in poverty and hardship, toiling to make ends meet, and have no time to save money.
I walked home with a lot of thoughts. Although the society during the Republic of China was full of turmoil and unrest, there were also countless outstanding figures like Mr. Li. They have created legends with their wisdom and courage, and have also left valuable wealth and experience for future generations.
When I returned home, I opened a book about the Republican period and began to understand the background of that era and the living conditions of the people. I found that the gap between the rich and the poor in that era was huge, the rich could live in luxury, while the poor could barely make ends meet. In this context, there are naturally very few people who can have a million deposits.
However, it is precisely this background of the times that highlights the extraordinary features of those successful people. They not only have a keen business vision and excellent management ability, but also have a firm belief and unremitting pursuit. They have proved with their actions that as long as they have dreams, courage and perseverance, they will be able to stand out in this era full of uncertainties.
I closed the book, filled with emotion. Although decades have passed since the Republic of China period, the people of that era and their stories still leave a deep imprint on my heart. They have written legends with their own lives and experiences, and have also provided valuable inspiration and reference for our descendants.
Back in reality, I couldn't help but think about my own life. In this era of peace and prosperity, should we also have our own dreams and pursuits like those successful people in the Republic of China? Should we also use our own efforts and wisdom to create our own legends?
I think the answer is yes. No matter how the times change, people's pursuit and yearning for a better life remain the same. We should cherish the opportunities and conditions given to us by this era, and use our own hands to create a better future.
Perhaps, we can't have millions of savings like Mr. Li, but we can have our own dreams and pursuits. We can use our own efforts and wisdom to create our own value and meaning. As long as we persevere in pursuing our dreams, we will be able to shine in this era full of opportunities and challenges.
Finally, I would like to express my respect and gratitude to those who amassed great wealth during the Republican period. They have set an example for future generations with their successes, and have also provided valuable inspiration and reference for us future generations. Let us remember the changes of that era and the glorious deeds of those outstanding people, and write our own legends with our own efforts and wisdom!
