When it comes to Jin Jinrong, one of the "three tycoons" of Shanghai Beach, few people in China will probably not know. He was the first of the three tycoons to make his mark, holding both black and white forces. It was under his cultivation that there was the later Du Yuesheng. In the impression of many people, Jin Rong is a fat man who only knows how to fight and kill. But in business, he also has his own brains. For example, in the 1930s, he adopted a 2.5-meter giant. He didn't let the giants do anything, only let the giants eat outside his yard every day. What medicine is sold in the Golden Gourd? Let's move on.
Golden Rong
On July 14, 1917, Shanghai Great World, known as the "First Club in the Far East", opened, and the owner was Huang Chujiu, a wealthy Shanghai businessman. Shanghai Great World covers an area of more than 14,000 square meters, including theaters, movie theaters, bookstores, juggling stations, shopping malls, Chinese and Western restaurants, etc. In order to make a name for the "big world", Huang Chujiu specially asked the literati to give advice and suggestions, and gave each new building an elegant name, known as the "Ten Wonders of the Great World".

In addition, Huang Chujiu also came up with a lot of novel ideas, such as installing high-altitude spaceships in the open air to attract children; The "Qiankun Coliseum" is divided into two floors, with more than a thousand seats, daily movies, and night Beijing operas. Under the management of Huang Chujiu, Shanghai's great world tourists are like clouds and famous. The big world is so profitable that it is naturally targeted by many people, and Golden Rong is one of them. Jin Rong's identity on the surface is inspector General Fang Hua of the French Concession Patrol, while the identity behind his back is the boss of the Green Gang. Relying on a wave of rogues under his command, he openly and covertly embezzled the assets of many people.
The interior of the big world
In the end, Huang Chujiu still could not defeat Jin Rong and transferred the Shanghai Great World out. After taking over the Shanghai Great World, Jin Rong mainly staged operas from all over the country, so it was very popular with the audience. Shanghai Great World also became famous and tourists continued, becoming the largest playground in the Far East at that time. But no matter how good the drama is, watching more will be tired, so Jin JinRong is also thinking about other means to attract customers.

Once, Jin Rong went to inspect the porridge shed he had opened. During the tour, it was discovered that there was a tall refugee in the procession. This person is more than half a body taller than the average person, and looks very scary. Jin Rong watched the giant's actions quietly, and when it was the giant's turn to receive the porridge, he directly took out two bowls, indicating that he did not have enough bowls to eat. The person who gave the porridge did not allow it, and asked instead: "Let you eat it, what do the people behind you eat?" Hungry?"
Porridge shed
At this moment, Jin Rong took the initiative to talk to the giant and asked him how much he could eat. The giant said, "Two bowls can barely be dealt with, and it takes at least five bowls to eat." The people around them secretly muttered: "It's really a rice bucket, and it's a waste of that two-foot cloth!" But Jin Rong was overjoyed, and immediately ordered the man to take five bowls of porridge to the giant and let him eat it on the spot. The giant had not eaten for a long time, so he was no longer polite with Jin Rong. I picked up the porridge on the table and ate it. In less than half an hour, he swept away five bowls of porridge and then burped contentedly.
Jin Rong smiled and asked him, "Do you want to eat every day?" The giant replied without hesitation, "Of course I do!" Jin Rong said, "Then you come with me, I will let you eat every day!" The giant asked, "Where to go?" What do you need me to do for you?" Jin Rong said, "You don't have to do anything, you just have to sit there and eat." Therefore, Jin Rong brought the giant to the door of the big world and let the giant eat live every day. Many people have never seen such a giant, so the traffic in the big world has increased again.

In addition, Jin Rong also ordered people to build a home for the giants in the big world. There are beds and furniture, as well as other daily necessities, and the rooms are named "Giants' Houses". All is tailor-made. Spectators who buy tickets will be invited by giants to visit the giants' houses. Since then, live eating has become the giant's job. Later, Jin Rong fell, and the giant also lost this job and became an ordinary person again. On the day of Jin Rong's death, he also went to the funeral and wept for it. After all, Jin Rong helped him in his most difficult times.
