Liu Bang's Complementary Team Circle

He is a hero, no matter how he was born; Show your true colors and get out of the sea.

Of all the rebels who fought against the state of Qin, Liu Bang should be regarded as an alien. His early life has long been covered up and sanctified by all kinds of dazzling legends in historical stories. However, no matter what the romance is, Liu Bang, as a lean man, can still see the factors of his future success from the clues of some hooligans in his early years.

Throughout the ages, the mainstream opinion of society has regarded being good at learning as the basis of success in life, but Liu Bang is obviously not one of them. In his suicide note The Book of Commandments, he also boasted that he was "complacent about the futility of reading". In his time, not only he but also his old rival Xiang Yu was a man who didn't like reading. Although Liu Bang doesn't read tangible books, he likes reading another kind of books without words in his life-making friends with various abilities and constantly cultivating his social skills. In his view, having a well-informed and knowledgeable friend is far more useful than reading as many books as possible and walking the same distance. Therefore, this is also an effective way to extend your ability to make friends. When he didn't meet in his early years, he made friends with Xiao He, Cao Can, Xia Houying and other social heroes at that time. Later, in the process of the uprising, he played his specialty of poaching and recruiting talents. He has won a large number of talents with their own specialties for many times, such as Sean, Han Xin, Chen Ping and Li Shiqi, to fight for themselves. After entering the stalemate with Xiang Yu, he successfully turned against Xiang Yu's uncle Xiang Bo to serve himself. In order to open up the second battlefield to contain Xiang Yu's forces, he also successfully persuaded his old ally, Peng Yue, the head of Juye Ze's water thief, to finally join his own camp and turn against the most important force of Xiang Yu Group, Jiujiang Wangyingpan Group. At any time and under any circumstances, you can clearly understand your needs and shortcomings in terms of talents, and then constantly enrich your strength, revise and improve your plan by absorbing talents and using your brains to seek potential, and complete the transformation from weak to strong. This is the most beautiful move of Liu Bang at the end of Qin Dynasty and the beginning of Han Dynasty.

Xiao He is one of the most important friends in Liu Bang's life. As the first hero of Han Xing, he has a very delicate relationship with Liu Bang, who has been a teacher and friend for decades. Just as Han Xin's generals can be seen from the hordes in the future, Xiao He's vision of knowing people is also necessary. * * * * found two people who had an important influence on the history of China in his life, one was Han Xin, and the other was Liu Bang who had no background or ability at first.

Xiao He is the chief bookkeeper of Pei County, equivalent to the deputy county magistrate. He is modest and good at mediating disputes, because he has been in charge of economic and personnel work and accumulated a lot of valuable practical work experience at the grassroots level. Facts have proved in the future that these experiences and his generous attitude towards the elderly made him an out-and-out soul figure in Liu Bang Group. In the contradiction between rebellion and loyalty to the Qin court, Peixian county magistrate Xiao He sized up the situation, launched a mutiny, and elected Liu Bang, who was desperate in the countryside at that time, to take charge of the work in the city. When Liu Bang was dismissed as Hanwang by Xiang Yu, and his subordinate generals fled in large numbers, and the momentum was once low, Xiao He not only refused to give up, but also recommended the incomparable general Han Xin, which gave full play to the favorable factors of Sichuan's good economic foundation and made Liu Group regain its luster and make a comeback in only half a year. When Liu Bang and Xiang Yu were caught in a hard and protracted war, it was thanks to Xiao He's excellent organizational ability that they were able to constantly gain additional strength from the rear and finally win in the unprecedented war of attrition. At the end of Qin Dynasty, Xiao He was a county magistrate, and he was a local figure of less than 10,000 people, while Liu Bang was just a civilian. Xiao He, on the other hand, was able to put down his status and make friends with him, and actively recommended and promoted Liu Bang, who had no political background and joint relationship, as the curator. Later, at the time of the uprising at the end of Qin Dynasty, Xiao He was the first to advocate that Liu Bang's leadership should turn over and make a decision against Qin Ting. As the chief seal of an economically developed area, he can find talents from various channels, and compared with these talents, Liu Bang's cultivation and ability, soft and hard strength are much inferior. Why did Xiao He help Liu Bang so much, and even remained loyal to this seemingly incompetent "rogue"?

As a summary of Liu Bang's character, it is described in Zi Tong Zhi Jian: "Those who love others are always generous." Translated into vernacular, it means good popularity, love to help others, open-minded and cheerful. A few words seem simple, but in fact they highly summarize the personality foundation of Liu Bang's future success. All these are the important factors for Liu Bang to attract people taller than him, such as Xiao He and Cao Can, to finally turn to his side. From the standpoint of Xiao He at that time, we can find out how Liu Bang, an obscure junior at that time, stood out from the public step by step and entered the field of vision of Xiao He, Cao Can and others.

On one occasion, Lv Gong, an old friend of Peixian County Magistrate and a well-known Jianghu person, came to Peixian County to settle down, and was naturally warmly welcomed by local officials. Because too many people came to celebrate, in order to collect a generous settlement fee for Lv Gong, I don't know who came up with a bad idea to control the flow of people with price lever: let Xiao He guard the gate and only let those guests whose gifts exceeded 1000 yuan enter the house to have dinner with Lv Gong, Pei Ling and others. At that time, a stone of millet (60 kg) was only worth 30 yuan, and the value of 1,000 yuan was equivalent to 2,000 kg of grain, which is about 1 10,000 yuan now. This was a huge sum of money at that time and now, and Liu Bang, as a personable figure, like many small officials in court, naturally could not take it out. But Liu Bang was obviously dissatisfied with this practice, and he didn't want to miss this opportunity to make friends. So he swaggered up to the class and shouted "Congratulations to Qian Wan". Xiao He, who is in charge of welcoming guests, is neither a bomb nor a welcome. Fortunately, Lv Gong fell in love with Liu Bang at first sight, not only welcoming him as a guest of honor, but also betrothing his precious daughter to Liu Bang as his wife. Liu Bang's move not only surprised Lv Gong, but also impressed Xiao He who witnessed the whole incident. Playing cards according to common sense is the common sense of people in the small system. In their view, buttering up the old friends of the immediate superior is naturally beneficial to their own career, so they will find a way to please Lv Gong by congratulating him for spending thousands of dollars on joining the class. However, it is Liu Bang's true nature to play cards with an open mind and not according to common sense. He came to make friends. He didn't mean to please the civil and military officials in the county, but also wanted to humiliate this "vanity fair" that recognizes money and denies people, so he staged this drama of "Congratulations on getting rich". It's no wonder that the true colors of heroes need to be revealed when crossing the sea.

Liu Bang's curator works at the grass-roots level, and usually comes into contact with hard work such as collecting rent and urging food, escorting able-bodied men and so on. Judging from the situation at that time, thousands of pavilions like Liu Bang in Qian Qian were responsible for so many projects and astronomical manpower, financial resources and material resources. It is difficult for this level of pavilions to stand out from the crowd by ordinary and hard work, and it is even more difficult to impress others, but Liu Bang is obviously not one of them. Facts have proved that neither the curator nor the emperor is an image-oriented person. Later, he even threw his hat on the ground, peeing in it and cursing its owner. But he attaches great importance to establishing his own maverick image in ordinary work. He has 72 moles on his leg. In modern medicine, this is probably a symptom of pigmentation, but in ancient times when superstition prevailed, it became his capital to show off his "different life" in front of everyone. In addition, he also made a hat with a strange shape from the cut bamboo pieces, and wore it on his head every day when he went to work. Whether it is catching thieves or escorting able-bodied men to serve corvee, it is regarded as a sign and symbol that distinguishes him from other officials. Xiao He and others, as the chief officers of pavilions, have listened and watched too much, so they will naturally have a deeper impression on the owner of this hat than other officials. From this, it is associated with the history of the rich from ordinary to the peak of wealth recorded in many newspaper articles. It seems that sometimes Bole's favor lies in a look, a move and a seemingly ordinary maverick.

Of course, Liu Bang's advantage that Xiao He and others value most is that he has a strong mass base at the bottom of society that Xiao He and others can't, and at least half of the heroes who will farmland with Liu Bang in the future are the people at the bottom of society that Liu Bang was able to get to know when he was young. As mentioned earlier, the establishment of the Qin Dynasty in 16 completely cut off the road of the independent rise of social elites. A large number of talented people, rich and powerful people, such as Xiang Liang's uncle and Sean, all went underground to engage in the anti-Qin cause, while those who had no money and no power buried their heads in the people and waited for an opportunity. The so-called "good practice within the public gate", Liu Bang, as a curator who works at the grassroots level and is responsible for urging food and catching thieves, undoubtedly has much more opportunities to deal with such people than Xiao He and others who work in an office. In the process of appointing talents, Liu Bang's wisdom and unique employment skills are beyond the reach of Xiao He and others.

Fan Kuai is a famous valiant soldier in Liu Bang Group. He killed 176 people and captured 288 people in the battlefield all his life. He fought alone, annihilated seven enemy units, conquered five cities and pacified six counties and fifty-two counties. Not only that, he is also a rare loyal man in Liu Bang Group. Fan Kuai was once addicted to court life when Liu Bang entered the customs to destroy Qin, and was the first to criticize his short-sighted behavior. At the banquet of the Hongmen, Liu Bang kept calm in a crisis, and Fan Kuai broke into the house to deter Xiang Yu and righteously protect Liu Bang. Such an enemy general was only a butcher in Pei County at the end of Qin Dynasty. In addition, after Liu Bang's death, Qiu Zhou Bo, who fought in the battlefield for dozens of times at the end of Qin Dynasty and the beginning of Han Dynasty, was only a craftsman who made straw mats in the era of Liu Bangdang, and decisively crushed the plot of Lu Group to usurp power. Cheng Peng was defeated, and Liu Bang, who was defeated by Xiang Yu, lost his wife and father, leaving Xia Houying to drive away alone with himself and a pair of children. In order to avoid chasing troops and go into battle lightly, Liu Banglian, as his biological father, ignored his family and pushed his children out of the car several times. It was Xia Houying who tried his best to save Liu Bang's children. He would rather disobey his boss's orders and stop to save lives at the risk that he and his boss will be intercepted by pursuers. Such a great sense of honor and courage is more valuable than ordinary flag-cutting exploits, and Xia Houying, a brave general who has the grace to rebuild the Han Dynasty, was just the driver of Peixian county magistrate in the Qin Dynasty.

Good friends are rare, and what is more commendable is that Liu Bang's vision was unique at that time: finding these talents from the bottom of society, enhancing trust in them in communication, and then letting these people living in the folk inspire their potential and make unparalleled contributions in the process of following themselves. These must be the most important "works" of Liu Bang when he was the director of the pavilion. There is a saying called "one hero and three gangs". Throughout the ages, those rebellious heroes who stood up and shouted the slogan "The emperor will be better" don't all have a group of capable subordinates to help them? In contrast, in the process of making these friends who need help work for themselves, the most rare thing for Liu Bang is to make these unilateral abilities far exceed his friends, and at the same time, he can finally maintain his independent personality and dare to stand up as a decision-maker to correct his mistakes at critical moments, instead of becoming a slave of Nuo Nuo after his power soared. This is the most valuable part of Liu Bang's talent. In order to make friends with these people and create this kind of atmosphere, Liu Bang, who was just a personable man at that time, obviously made great efforts and made great efforts.

According to Hanshu, Xiao He and others elected Liu Bang as the initiator of the uprising out of concern for their own lives and fear of the failure of the uprising. But according to the Qin law, coercion or rebellion is a capital crime. Since they are all mortals, their talents and titles are far superior to those of Liu Bang, and Xiao He and Cao Can, who mastered the financial power and military power of counties and counties after killing the county magistrate, can completely eat Liu Bang's team, start their own businesses, or directly seek protection from the stronger Chen Sheng Group and go to the county boundaries. These two methods were the best policies at that time, but they made a choice to support Liu Bang in a short time. Therefore, the author thinks that Liu Bang's maverick, generous personality and various social relations are the important reasons why Xiao He, Cao Can and others gave up their ambitions and embraced this former subordinate's independent portal.

Research on Song Jiang's Network

Sung River in the Water Margin is ugly, dark and short. "Wen can't protect the country, Wu can't serve the public, and he has no power to bind chickens or make arrows." Why can such a person hold the top spot among 108 talented heroes and win the incomparable support of all those who are more capable, smarter and more talented than him? Song Jiang has no other ability, only one big capital. He is good at getting along with people. Song Jiang has a nickname "Timely Rain" in the Water Margin. He often takes the initiative to help others, is generous and has a wide popularity.

Perhaps everyone is very strange. Heroes in ancient and modern times always submit to an ugly leader, such as Guan Yu, Zhang Fei and Zhuge Liang's support for Liu Bei, and Li Kui jy Song Wu Lu Shenzhi and Wu Yong's full support for Song Jiang. Like Liu Bei and Song Jiang, their martial arts are not as good as those of Guan Yu and Li Kui jy, and their intelligence is not as good as that of Zhuge Liang and Wu Yong. Wen can't write and can't use force, so why convince and drive Qunying?

Just look at what Sung Jiang did on weekdays. Sung River was driven to revolt because he killed Yan Poxi. Yan Poxi was donated by him, so she had the money to bury her father. She married Song Jiang out of gratitude and ingratitude, so she let Song Jiang kill her case. Before Yan Poxi was killed by Song Jiang's anger, the maharaja who sold potions drank "Erchen decoction for hangover". The maharaja was very grateful to Song Jiang because Song Jiang promised to buy him an old coffin. These lower-class people who set up stalls to sell songs have no blood relationship with Song Jiang. When encountering difficulties, Song Jiang always helps. These small favors not only bought the recipient's heart, but also made his name as widely known as timely rain. This laid a good foundation for his socialization and making friends. After he arrived in the water margin, it was this lifestyle that gradually pushed him to the position of leader.

Song Jiang made a fuss about the details, which was sensitive to the other side. For example, when I first met Li Kui jy, he noticed the generosity of the other party and asked the bartender to pour a cup for Li Kui jy in a big bowl, which made Li Kui jy overjoyed and said that he knew his own character. This reminds me of my friend who is an assistant manager in a company. When the manager has dinner with her on business, she always remembers to order her favorite corn with pine nuts. It is this detail that made my friend pay for him for five years, with no regrets, and never complained about overtime and no salary increase. Being a man in this state is a master-a master of psychology, thinking about each other's psychology and doing things.

After persuading Dwarf Tiger King to spare the stolen family in Zhizhai Village, Sung River still kept his promise to find a wife for Dwarf Tiger King. Later, he deliberately asked his father to accept a beautiful woman "Zhang" as his adopted daughter and let her marry the Dwarf Tiger King in the name of Sister Song Jiang. Wang Can Dwarf Tiger, who is secretly dissatisfied with Song Jiang's evil deeds and ungrateful?

As can be seen from these things, Song Jiang's principle of being a man is to be responsive. If you can't afford a coffin, fine, I'll buy it for you. You love drinking, I make you feel good, you are horny, and I am here to serve beautiful women. Who can refuse such an offensive strategy? Are they happy to be attacked by Song Jiang's sugar-coated shells?

So after the death of Classical, Lu Junyi captured Shi Wengong who shot Classical alive, and Song Jiang also listed three things that were inferior to Lu Junyi. Appearance, sung river is black and short; Lu Junyi looks good. Song Jiang was born as a small official and a fugitive who committed a capital crime. Lu Junyi was born in a wealthy family and has a reputation as a hero. In terms of ability, Song can't defend his country, his martial arts can't convince the public, his hands are powerless, and he doesn't have the ability to make an inch of arrows. Lu Junyi is not only capable of defeating 10,000 people, but also knowledgeable today. In this way, no matter according to Chao Gai's "but someone catches Shi Wengong, you don't pick who it is, you are the owner of the water margin." The last sentence, or according to the comprehensive quality comparison of two people, the water margin leader should belong to Lu Junyi. But why would Lu Junyi rather die than follow? He is very clever. He knew that if you want to stand on the water margin, you can't compete with Song Jiang. Even if power belongs to Lu Junyi in terms of hardware, it won't last long. Because those who win the hearts of the people win the world, Lu Junyi has the right time and place, but it lacks the most important "harmony between people" that Song Jiang has. Carnegie in the 20th century pointed out that a person's success 15% depends on his ability, while 85% depends on his interpersonal relationship. Song Jiang became familiar with this truth in the Song Dynasty and put it into practice, which achieved good results. People reacted differently when they saw Song Jiang and Lu Junyi give in. Wu Yong directly elected Song Jiang as the head, and "Black Cyclone" Li Kui jy jumped out to threaten. If Song Jiang had not become a leader, everyone would have dispersed. In the Song Dynasty, there were three speakers, Liu Tang and Lu. These comments represent the opinions of the broad masses of people in the water margin. Wu Yong is in the three leading bodies of "Chief, Strategist and Magician", jy is the hawk, Liu Tang is the representative of the seven-person group of "Outwit and Birth Program", and Helu is the representative of other factions from Erlong Mountain and Shaohua Mountain.

With such broad support from the masses, it is natural for Lu Junyi to lose to Song Jiang. Song Jiang is a popular man, and it is natural to win the world.

Although later, two people each took a team to borrow grain to attack the city, even if Lu Junyi could, he never dared to win Song Jiang. This is Lu Junyi's philosophy of life and his cleverness. He made way for Song Jiang and maintained good interpersonal relationship with Song Jiang, which is the secret of maintaining good relationship with the masses.

It was Song Jiang's superb networking skills that made him a leader, and it was also Lu Junyi's way of stepping aside that kept him in the water margin to preserve his sanity.

Hu Xueyan's circle management technique of abusing power for business

Hu Xueyan was a famous businessman in China in 1970s and 1980s. His experience is full of legend: he started as a clerk in a bank and helped the court by making friends with powerful people; In the Westernization Movement, he hired foreign craftsmen and introduced equipment, which was quite rewarding. He made great contributions to the Western Expedition through raising grain machinery and borrowing foreign money. After many twists and turns, he jumped from a banker to a prominent red-topped businessman. He established a financial network based on banks and pawn shops, opened pharmacies and silk stacks, and not only did business with foreigners, but also fought against them.

Throughout Hu Xueyan's life, his merits and demerits were mixed. Here only analyzes his way of employing people. An important reason for Hu Xueyan's success is that he is good at employing people, learning from each other's strengths and not seeking perfection. He said that a person's greatest ability is to use people. Gu Sixie, a poet in A Qing, once wrote: A swift horse dares to take risks, and ploughing is not as good as an ox. A strong car can carry a load, but it is better to sail across the river. Give up the length and take the short, although the wisdom is high, it is hard to find. Raw materials are expensive and applicable, so be careful not to demand too much.

Expand contacts and win over bureaucrats

Hu Xueyan's success lies in his eye. He gambled that Wang Youling, a poor scholar at that time, could turn around, so he privately borrowed 500 taels of silver from the bank to Wang Youling, as the money for travelling expenses and becoming an official in Beijing. Hu Xueyan lost his job, but paved a bright future for himself. It can't be said that he has a unique vision and profound knowledge.

Soon, Wang Youling really donated the post of Daotai and helped Hu Xueyan to open his own bank. After Hu Xueyan started his own bank, Fukang, the first move was to open accounts for some special ladies for free. These special guests are the families of the governor's office. At the beginning of the opening of Fukang Bank, Hu Xueyan used a special sum of money, which was divided into several shares, each of which was more than twenty taels, and opened a passbook for the family members of the Governor's Ministry of Foreign Affairs. The officials' families got the passbook presented by Hu Xueyan for no reason. On the one hand, the two met and later saved money in Fukang; On the other hand, this matter has been passed down from mouth to mouth. When it was known outside, everyone knew that Fukang Bank had the support of Fu Tai and his relatives in Fan Tai. The signboard is reliable, and after the word of mouth started, the business of the money house naturally rolled in.

Hu Xueyan borrowed the power of the Governor's Department to increase the visibility of the bank. He can see clearly who can do what. At the same time, attracting fish is also a common means in commercial marketing. An economist said that when a new product cannot be recognized for a while, inducement is also a good promotion strategy to stimulate consumers' desire to buy. Sending passbooks at the beginning of bank opening is also a means of promotion.

Step in-obey subordinates

Qian Zhuang was Hu Xueyan's first business, and then he had his first pawnshop. In fact, Hu Xueyan is a banker and is not familiar with the pawn industry. It is common sense that businessmen are unfamiliar. The reason why he really entered the pawnshop industry was a conversation he had with Zhu Funian, a bank subordinate. Zhu Funian was the leader in the process of Hu Xueyan United Silk Giant selling foreign villages, and later worked for Hu Xueyan. As Zhu Funian's ancestral home is Huizhou, Huizhou is the prosperous place of pawnbroking in China's history. Zhu Funian was familiar with the pawn market since he was a child. Hu Xueyan learned from Zhu Funian about the management methods and rules of many pawn shops, and learned that pawn shops are profitable, and there are businesses to do no matter whether the situation is good or bad. It is a relatively stable industry.

Of course, Hu Xueyan's investment in pawnbroking was related to his understanding of various businesses at that time. In the era of frequent wars and famines, people living in cities, not to mention poor families and small families with eclipses, even well-off families with a little savings, will be embarrassed from time to time. In an emergency, pawn is often used to overcome the emergency, making the pawn industry spread all over towns and villages. With Hu Xueyan's broad vision, he won't ignore this promising business.

The conversation with Zhu Funian strengthened Hu Xueyan's idea of investing in pawnbroking. Hu Xueyan asked Zhu Funian to pay attention to pawn talents for himself. When he visited Hangzhou, he immediately opened his first pawnshop in Hangzhou-Gong Ji Store. Subsequently, with the help of Zhu Funian and others, his pawn shops have grown to more than 20, covering most provinces in central and southern China such as Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Hubei and Hunan, becoming his second largest source of income after banks.

Pharmaceutical industry-appease relatives

Hu Xueyan, a relative of a dude, is extremely profligate and especially likes gambling. Let him open a famous pharmacy for himself.

Hu Qingyutang is another time-honored brand under Hu Xueyan's name, which has won him a good reputation as a good man in Hu Da. This drugstore is related to a concubine he married. This girl, named Furong, had a big pharmacy in her ancestors' ancestors, and then her father died and her family came down. Her uncle, nicknamed Liu bucai, is a dude. He is extremely extravagant and especially likes gambling. After the pharmacy failed, he finally made a living by borrowing money. But Liu Bucai is a thin donkey, and he is still a little car-scrapping. Because Furong is a concubine, he doesn't want to recognize Hu Xueyan as a relative. He is holding the secret recipe handed down by several ancestors, and he is still thinking that one day he can revive his family business.

Hu Xueyan married a lotus girl. For this difficult relative, Liu Bucai and Hu Xueyan can have two choices. One is to send Liu bucai a sum of money and no longer have anything to do with him; Second, according to the idea of Furong, Furong advised Liu Bucai to take out the secret recipe handed down from home, and Hu Xueyan helped him sell ten thousand pieces of silver and let him live by himself. But Hu Xueyan doesn't think so. He is bent on recognizing this relative, and he wants to borrow Liu bucai to open his own pharmacy. With his own eyes, he immediately found that the pharmacy business was also a good source of income at this time.

In troubled times, first, the army must need anti-epidemic drugs to March and fight; Second, there is bound to be a great epidemic after the army is under siege, and the fugitives need medical treatment when they get sick on the road. Moreover, opening a pharmacy also has a good reputation of doing good deeds and accumulating virtue, which is easy to get the support of the government. While making money for yourself, you can also earn a good reputation for yourself. Why not? It doesn't matter if Hu Xueyan thinks he doesn't understand the pharmacy business, but Liu bucai does. As long as we can appease him and force him to change his habits, he can be the master and make full use of his ancestral secret recipe. So Hu Xueyan set an engagement party, giving Liu Bucai enough face, and settled the location, scale, capital and other matters of pharmacy opening at this banquet.

Hu Qingyu Hall in Hu Xueyan was established in this way. In the following decades, Hufu Yutang became a world-famous old drugstore, known as "Tongrentang in the north and Hufu Yutang in the south". Hu Qingyutang not only became a stable economic source in Hu Xueyan, but also won a good reputation as a good man in Hu Da, which had an excellent influence on his other businesses.

Land speculation-chatting next door

During a break, Hu Xueyan occasionally heard the gossip about Shanghai land planning speculation next door. The speaker has no intention, but the listener has intention. Hu Xueyan has made another fortune.

The thing is this: once, Hu Xueyan was doing silk business in Shanghai, and when he was resting at Yuji Inn, he overheard a conversation between two people in the next room about Shanghai real estate. These two people are very familiar with the situation of foreign markets and the way of Shanghai real estate development. They talked about the differences between foreigners' urban development, design and construction and China. Even people in China often do a good job in the market before building roads. This kind of road construction is mostly spontaneous and natural, and no one will pay special attention to road construction. One of them said that according to the situation in Shanghai, main roads and secondary roads can be seen in the north and south. In fact, going west is more promising. If you are far-sighted, at this time, regardless of its reeds and paddy fields, try to buy it and wait for foreigners to drive there and sit at home and make a fortune.

A conversation between two people next door made Hu Xueyan lie down. Out of the businessman's nervousness, he suddenly felt that this was another opportunity, but he had no experience in this field before. He immediately hired a carriage to go west from the mud wall. On the way to the field trip, he drew up two plans: first, if the funds permit, buy a piece first while the land price is cheap, and then change hands to make money when the land price rises; Second, through the relationship between Gu Yingchun (a friend of Hu Xueyan and a foreign comprador), we should first find out foreigners' plans to develop the market, and buy the land near the border where foreigners want to build roads first, so that we can make a fortune in an instant.

Needless to say, by taking this opportunity, Hu Xueyan set his sights on the real estate business in Shanghai, and found a financial source that can definitely make a fortune. In fact, by the end of 19, the land price per mu in Shanghai had risen from dozens of taels to 2700 taels, and in the following years, the land price on the Bund in Shanghai even reached 302,000 taels per mu. This kind of business is just a profitable source of funds!

Some people may think that Hu Xueyan's move is all due to luck, but will others have such a result? In fact, many of Hu Xueyan's business ideas were inadvertently mentioned by others, but only Hu Xueyan noticed them and immediately put them into action, making them step by step.

In all kinds of biographies, it is said that Hu Xueyan's philosophy of life is that friends have many roads, enemies have many walls, and people communicate with each other. He is considerate of each other everywhere, broad-minded, generous and doesn't care about personal grievances. It is said that when encountering a very difficult enemy, Hu Xueyan tried to only draw a bow and not shoot an arrow; When the enemy quits, knowing that Hu Xueyan has shown mercy, he will be grateful. On the one hand, Hu Xueyan is good at turning enemies into friends; On the other hand, Hu Xueyan underestimated the enemy. When the Englishman Watt invented the steam engine, which led to the industrial revolution, it was only a matter of time before the handicraft industry declined. Hu Xueyan didn't miss this problem, but in order to maintain the livelihood of sericulture families in rural areas in the south of the Yangtze River, he didn't want to change course and succumb to the economic power of western capitalist countries. He accumulated raw silk in one hand and monopolized giant equipment in an attempt to force foreign businessmen to buy at a high price. However, Hu Xueyan overestimated his own strength and underestimated the strength of the other side. Foreign businessmen refused to buy the silk accumulated in Hu Xueyan, forcing Hu Xueyan to sell it at a low price, which led to bankruptcy.

Writer Levin once wrote when describing Hu Xueyan, a businessman with a red top: "In fact, Hu Xueyan's wrist is also very simple, and Hu Xueyan can talk and be obedient. A man's words are tasteless, and he can be serious and look at them with his eyes, as if he were listening with great interest. At the same time, he is really listening, adding a sentence or two at the crucial moment and extending one or two meanings, so that those who chatter endlessly will feel that they are going against their will and naturally feel that they have made friends through speculation. "
