In the troubled times of the late Qin Dynasty, Pei County grain merchant Zhao Man had only one creed: Don't talk about righteousness, talk about money!
He raised prices when others were fleeing for their lives, he bargained for money when the Qin army besieged the city, and he danced Yangko with an abacus at the Hongmen Banquet - he just turned a murderous dinner into a large-scale disco scene. He was so stingy that he sewed eight layers of locks on his money bag and put eight copper locks on it, and spent money on himself to the point of breaking a sweat; yet he emptied his wealth time and time again to save the refugees, his brothers, and the world. He insisted on "return on investment", then turned around and tore up the IOUs of the refugees; he cursed and told Liu Bang, but became the real God of Wealth behind the scenes of the Han army.
He used "delivering eggs" to help Liu Bang be elected unanimously, used "the income statement of massacre" to persuade the Qin army to retreat, used "lifetime wine card" to bribe Xiang Bo to be an insider, used "step-down Doubanjiang" to make Fan Zeng mad, and used "song of paying back money from all sides" to disintegrate the Chu army - not killing anyone, but deciding the overall situation of the world.
Here are the arrogant and blushing Xiang Yu, Fan Zeng who is so angry that he drinks anti-hypertensive tea, Xiao He who loses his hair and keeps accounts, Cao Shen who can only fight when he is full, Lu Wei who can always grab Zhao Man's ears from the air... There is no system, no golden fingers, just a group of ordinary people trying to survive in troubled times. They overturned the greatest era in the most commercial way.
Smile and you will find that the so-called heroes are just hiding the gentlest heart under their stingy shell.
Love money all your life, love people all your life. Let's see how the God of Wealth in Peixian County deposed Liu Bang to the throne.
