From then on, he devoted himself to working in the fields, and was good at everything from plowing and hoeing to hoisting the fields. He is well aware of the wise saying that "starting a business is like picking up soil with a needle, and losing a career is like water pushing away sand". He lives frugally and is not afraid of hardships. The family business is getting stronger and stronger, but he still does not forget about farming and often goes to work in the fields. The way they dress is no different from those of farmers. He planned carefully, worked hard and was frugal, and did not indulge in the bad habit of eating, drinking, whoring, gambling, and smoking. After decades of hard work, he finally made the substantial family fortune left by his father's generation increasingly prosperous in his hands. He became a large family with 200 acres of good land, dozens of houses, and five or six donkeys and mules...
