In the prosperous Tang Dynasty, Chang'an City was full of traffic and people. In this ancient capital, there is a figure, his name is Li Xiaobai. Li Xiaobai is not a dignitary, nor is he a wealthy businessman, he is just an ordinary scholar, but his story has spread throughout Chang'an City, and even influenced later generations.
Li Xiaobai's family is poor, but he is smart, studious, and diligent. He knows that if he wants to change his fate, there is only one way to study. So, he studied hard day and night, and never stopped writing, hoping that one day he would be able to be named on the gold list and glorify the lintel.
However, fate always seems to play a joke on him. Every time he took the imperial examination, Li Xiaobai was a little bit worse, and he always lost his name to Sun Shan. He was frustrated, he was lost, but he never gave up. He believes that as long as he persists, he will succeed one day.
By chance, Li Xiaobai heard a story about "credit investigation". It is said that there was a businessman in Chang'an City, and he won the respect and trust of countless people by virtue of his integrity and credibility. His business grew bigger and bigger, and eventually he became the richest merchant in Chang'an.
Li Xiaobai's heart moved, he thought, although he has no money and no power, what he has is a sincere heart and a persistent belief. He is determined to use his actions to prove that even if he does not have money and status, he can win the respect and trust of others with his "credit information".
So, Li Xiaobai began his road of "credit investigation". He first found a small shop and asked the owner to give him a chance to help take care of the shop. The shopkeeper looked at Li Xiaobai's sincere eyes and firm attitude, and agreed to his request.
Li Xiaobai is conscientious and diligent in the store. He treats every customer with warmth and thoughtfulness, whether rich or poor. He is honest and trustworthy and never cheats customers. Gradually, his fame spread in Chang'an City.
One day, a wealthy merchant came to the shop. He took a fancy to a treasure in the shop, but he hesitated due to the high price. Seeing this, Li Xiaobai took the initiative to talk to the wealthy businessman. He explained the origin and value of this treasure to the wealthy merchant in detail, and promised that if the wealthy merchant was not satisfied with the purchase, he could return it at any time.
Impressed by Li Xiaobai's sincerity and honesty, the wealthy merchant decided to buy this treasure. Afterwards, the wealthy businessman was full of praise for Li Xiaobai's "credit information", and specially found Li Xiaobai and invited him to his house as a guest.
In the mansion of a wealthy businessman, Li Xiaobai got acquainted with many dignitaries and wealthy businessmen. They were all impressed by Li Xiaobai's "credit information" and made friends with him one after another. Li Xiaobai also took this opportunity to ask them for various knowledge and experience, and constantly improve his ability and insight.
As time passed, Li Xiaobai's fame grew. He not only won the respect and trust of countless people in Chang'an City, but also won the emperor's appreciation and respect. The emperor specially summoned him and gave him an official position and a knighthood.
However, Li Xiaobai was not complacent because of this. He knows that his success is inseparable from the word "credit". He has always adhered to his principles and beliefs, based on integrity and credibility. He practiced the true meaning of "credit reporting" with his own actions, and became a good story for future generations.
In Chang'an City, when people mention Li Xiaobai, they will give him a thumbs up and praise his "credit information". His story also spread throughout the Tang Dynasty and even influenced later generations. People have emulated his actions, based on integrity and credibility. As a result, the "credit information" culture of the Tang Dynasty has been widely inherited and carried forward.
Li Xiaobai's story tells us a truth: integrity is the foundation of people, and reputation is the foundation of success. In this materialistic and profit-oriented society, we should stick to our principles and beliefs, take integrity as the foundation, and put credibility first. Only in this way can we go further, more stable and more wonderful on the road of life!
