Shen Wansan, a Wealthy Businessman of the Ming Dynasty

Book introduction: The book is not systematic, does not travel through time, and does not have many female protagonists. It focuses on the male protagonist's ups and downs from farming to business life to a legendary life. The introduction is clear and does not need to be elaborated; At the end of the Yuan Dynasty and the beginning of the Ming Dynasty, Shen Fu, a farmer in Zhouzhuang, had the courtesy name Zhongrong, Xingsan, and was called Shen Wansan. He started out in Dingmu and made his first gold by selling ships out of thin air. Then he sailed to the South Seas, transported silk and porcelain to foreign lands, and returned with spices and pearls. He reclaimed wasteland, promoted agriculture, mulberry, fishery and rice cycles, opened a chain of dyeing shops and pawnshops, and accumulated wealth like snow. Ran's big tree attracts the wind, and he helped build the city wall of Nanjing when Hongwu Dingding was appointed. However, he offended Long Yan with his words of reward for the army. Fortunately, the queen persuaded him and saved him from being exiled to Yunnan. His legendary life is intertwined with the wisdom of merchants and the game of imperial power, as well as the cornucopia of anecdotes and the ups and downs of the family, all reflected in the changes of these sixty years.
