Secrets to Getting Rich (Free Public Edition Book)

Also known as "The Foreign History of Huang Nu". The book focuses on C, a slum in Guangdong, who made a fortune by selling "material bubbles", and exposes the phenomenon of the comprador class in the late Qing Dynasty colluding with foreign forces to sell out national interests. Through the creation of characters such as Tao Qingyun and Hua Xueqi, the novel criticizes the profit-seeking behavior of the traitors, and uses the mouth of intellectuals to put forward the sharp allegory that "if you want to get rich, you must have the heart of an animal". The ten chapters of the book completely show the formation of the profit-oriented society in the early days of Hong Kong's opening as a port, and it is regarded as a representative work of anti-comprador literature in the late Qing Dynasty.
