The early years of the Republic of China.
Most of the wealthy merchants and nobles of the Qing Dynasty were lonely. However, there is one family that remains standing despite the bloody storm.
Lu family.
This long-lasting family.
During Lu Aotian's reign, the Lu family rose to prominence and was able to dominate the capital and control business. Lu Aotian has two sons. The eldest son, Lu Yaozu, inherited the family business in Beijing, and the second son, Lu Yaozong, went to Shanghai to develop. After the fall of the Qing Dynasty, the city of Beijing was in a state of chaos. Lu Yaozu wanted to move the focus of his family business to Shanghai. Everything was ready, but a sudden fire destroyed the Lu family in Beijing.
However, this did not affect the power of the Lu family in Shanghai. It is said that even when the King of Shanghai met the Lu family, he would respect him even more. The Lu family's wealth is well known to everyone. The Lu residence alone occupies a street in Shanghai, not to mention that there are various grain stores, banks, pawn shops, restaurants and other businesses under the Lu family. There is a ballad from time to time: The Lu family's shops are all over Jiuzhou, and silver is flowing into them. The emperor had no money from the treasury, so he went to Lu Zhai to ask for it.
As the saying goes, what goes up must come down. What is the secret of Lu Zhai's long-lasting prosperity?
The Lu family is a prosperous family, and at the same time, there are countless secrets hidden here.
