The reason why Du Yuesheng is admired by posterity is because he has done a lot of good things for the people and the country because he has spared money for righteousness. In 1925, a large-scale workers' strike broke out in Shanghai, and more than 100,000 workers had no income for a while, and Du Yuesheng paid for these workers who resisted the oppression of Japanese enterprises, and worked with various forces to solve the problems at that time to a certain extent.
In addition, Du Yuesheng also developed education in the local area, built a large number of civil engineering, built schools, built roads, and donated money and materials during the War of Resistance Against Japan to raise military funds. When the Japanese side wanted to win Du Yuesheng over, Du Yuesheng also sternly refused, determined not to be a traitor. In the end, he also chose to favor Beijing, rather than favoring old Chiang Kai-shek, in general, Du Yuesheng knew how to be a man, and also had a certain national backbone, plus his contribution to the War of Resistance Against Japan, which can be regarded as a generation of tyrants and also left a certain reputation.
Huge family money
As one of the three giants of the Green Gang, Du Yuesheng is especially unambiguous in doing business and being a person, and Du Yuesheng's family property is naturally very rich. According to the information currently available, Du Yuesheng's spaciousness is unimaginable, at that time the car was a completely rare object, and there were only about 1,000 cars in the whole of Shanghai, but Du Yuesheng had 9 cars alone, and they were all famous cars, and each car was worth a lot.
All his life, Du Yuesheng likes to make friends with all kinds of celebrities, whether it is on the road, when he is an official, who is engaged in art, as long as he is famous, Du Yuesheng will treat the guests, and will also generously donate money to help these talents, or to bo their good feelings. Therefore, Du Yuesheng spends as much as ten percent every year, reaching about 2 million silver dollars.
Du Yuesheng can spend so much money every year, it must be that the income is much more than this before he is willing. At that time, he monopolized the opium shipment in Shanghai for a while, and at the same time, he also invested in casinos and other industries, according to statistics, when Du Yuesheng was at his peak, his assets totaled 30 million silver dollars!
So how much is the 30 million silver dollar worth? At that time, the silver content of a silver dollar was about 23.5g, 30 million silver dollars is more than 700 million grams of silver, if calculated according to the current silver price, his assets are at least 4 billion yuan!
But the silver price at that time and the current silver price is completely different, its purchasing power is also completely different, and then calculate the inflation, Du Yuesheng's assets will go straight to 30 billion yuan! And this 30 billion yuan put into the present, as a personal net worth, is definitely a super rich!
