Chapter 1117 The richest man in Jiangnan


Aren't you dead?

When Kong Dejing said this, she felt mixed feelings, her eyes were red and swollen, her voice trembled slightly, she clenched her fists and bit her lip, looking like a wronged daughter-in-law.

Indeed, Kong Dejing felt that she was quite aggrieved, since she came out of the old man's cave, she always unconsciously remembered the moment when she was forcibly pushed out of the cave by Xiang Que, this man gave himself a way to live, but he was left to die, to put it simply, this is his own being He saved his life, and the complicated point is that there is a string in his heart that is fluctuating, and he makes a song of love like a gust of wind.

Shen Linfeng looked at the two of them with interest, and asked very gossipy, "You two seem to have a story?"

” In the Confucian mansion.

Mr.

Kong Da sat upright, from him down to the left hand sat Shen Dejing's parents, and on the right sat Shen Linfeng's father, Shen Tianchang.

The Confucian people, who have always had their eyes above the top, have the halo of a thousand-year-old family on their heads, plus the children of the Confucian family are scattered all over the world and abroad, and when they look at people, they generally have their nostrils upwards and their eyes are forty-five degrees lower, but when facing Shen Tianchang, a seemingly ordinary middle-aged man, he has to put his head down low, maintain an equal and peaceful attitude, and dare not raise the attitude too high.

The Shen family, in terms of the history of the foundation, is more than a thousand years away from the Confucian Mansion, and there are several generations of dynasties in between, but there is a word called the latecomer prevailing, and the Shen family belongs to this category.

Shen Tianchang's ancestor was called Shen Fu, the word Zhongrong, a native of the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, Wansan was another name for him at that time.

The richest man in Jiangnan in the Ming Dynasty, Shen Wansan.

There are two most famous people in Chinese history, one is the great corrupt official He Shen in the Qianlong period, and the other is Jia Shen Wansan, a great businessman in the early Ming Dynasty.

How rich is Shen Wansan, in addition to the fact that he is named the richest man in Jiangnan, the most pertinent evaluation of him is "huge capital, land all over the world", Shen Wansan is also the first person to do overseas trade, that is, to do import and export business, wealth began to accumulate rapidly 。

Legend has it that half of the fields in the south of the Yangtze River were Shen Wansan's at that time, and after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, the treasury was empty, so he found Shen Wansan, the richest man at that time, and asked him to fund the treasury.

The second is that his subordinates have money, and Shen Wansan belongs there Kind of extremely rich people.

Such people are too dangerous.

Because Zhu Yuanzhang saw Shen Wansan's steps pleasing to the eye, he began to find fault, and asked Shen Wansan to help him build the city wall, Zhu Yuanzhang asked the imperial court to build the northwest city wall, and Shen Wansan to build the southeast city wall.

If you don't die, you won't die, this sentence was the most suitable for Shen Wansan at that time, the money was too capable, Zhu Yuanzhang asked the entire imperial court to build the northwest city wall, which was not faster than the southeast city wall built by Shen Wansan with his own strength, which was completed several days faster than Zhu Yuanzhang 。

This product is too capable, the emperor's tiger whiskers can you pick up casually, you are faster than the emperor to repair the city wall, doesn't that make it clear that you say that you are richer than the emperor and more powerful than the emperor, so Shen Wansan may be the first person in history who can be regarded as the most capable of death.

So, Zhu Yuanzhang found fault and sent the entire Shen family to the border pass to fill the army, which is now Yunnan, so far everyone thinks that the richest man in Jiangnan has been declining, but in fact it is not. can become the richest man on the rich side, Shen Wansan can do it, but his head is definitely not stupid, and he is also extremely smart, long before Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne, in fact, Shen Wansan had already scattered the wealth of his family all over the place, and let several important direct children of the Shen family secretly leave At that time, some of Zhouzhuang went directly to the sea from Zhejiang to overseas, and some stayed in China.

Later, it was said that Shen Wansan's family was in the middle of the road, and the richest man in Jiangnan was ruined, but that was actually just a façade, the Shen family's wealth was only folded by one-third, and most of the other people were sent out, because Shen Wansan gradually tasted it after Zhu Yuanzhang ascended the throne Emperor Taizu couldn't figure it out to take him down, so Shen Wansan stayed in Zhouzhuang and deceived Zhu Yuanzhang with a trick.

Because Shen Wansan was the first and most overseas trader at that time, he shipped silk, jade, grain and handicrafts from the south of the Yangtze River overseas, and then transported jewelry, ivory, rhinoceros horn, spices and medicinal herbs to China After the disciples of the Shen family fled overseas, they soon began to develop, and some of them stayed in China.

Later, after the Ming Dynasty was destroyed by the Qing Dynasty, the children of the Shen family at home and abroad began to merge together, and the Shen family quickly recovered, even faster than the Shen Wansan era at that time, just because they always remembered the mistakes made by their ancestor Shen Wansan at that time, the Shen family changed extremely It was low-key, and the wealth under his hands was always in the hands of the Shen family's disciples and did not come together, until the domestic situation stabilized a few decades ago, and the Shen family began to pull up the banner.

Even if the current descendants of Shen Wansan are rich, they cannot be rich and rival the country, so how rich they can be, in fact, no one knows, just like no one understands how much influence the Rothschild family has in the world, this has become a mystery.

This time, what Shen Tianchang came to the Confucian Mansion to seek was a marriage with Kong Linfeng and Kong Dejing, marriage is the most common and effective means to maintain interests between the two big families, and long-term development, and the combination of important children in the two families means that the Kong family and the Shen family are in the next generation The development will enter a positive phase, so marriage is crucial.

Mr.

Kong Da and Shen Tianchang discussed the marriage of Kong Dejing and Shen Linfeng in detail when they met this time, and it was scheduled after New Year's Day, because the basic tone before this time The older generation of the two families had already discussed, and the dowry gift given this time was nothing more than a normal procedure.

A few months later, the combination of the Kong and Shen families will open up two prosperous families with a long history.

However, today's young people don't pay much attention to the words of their parents, Shen Linfeng's wings are stiff, Kong Dejing is not a submissive woman, will the two young people really choose to be at the mercy of others for their lifelong events?

On the hill in the backyard of the Kong family, Xiang Que had a headache and said to Kong Dejing: "This matter is a long story·······
