Du's birth fortune teller _ Who is Du's birth fortune teller?

Du Fu, the richest man in Shanghai, was born on July 1888 Mid-Autumn Festival and died on July 195 14 Ghost Festival. Before his death, he hoped to bury his body back to his hometown, Gao Qiao Town, but he still didn't get it.

Father Du Wenqing was named Yuesheng because his son was born in the Mid-Autumn Festival. Du later made a fortune and became famous at sea. Zhang Taiyan quoted classics and suggested that he change his name to Yong. Du Yuesheng is an orphan. /kloc-started working as an apprentice in a fruit shop in Shanghai at the age of 0/4. He plays with the fruit knife perfectly and often cuts the broken fruit before selling it. After setting up his own stall, he mainly sells Laiyang pears, so people in the circle call him "Guo Yuesheng" or "Laiyang Pear".

Enter the green gang.

Du Yuesheng got mixed up with a group of hooligans. If he hadn't met Chen Shichang, he would have been a scoundrel at best. He is not a prominent figure in green gang, but a man with little feet, but he has high qualifications, so he can open a museum and accept disciples, and Du Du worships at his door. Green gang is like a key to the sea, through which Du opened a legendary life.

There are tens of thousands of children in green gang, so why should Shanghai help Du? Of course, Du has his own advantages. First, he has a brain; The second is loyalty; The third is to save face. He has the mind to subdue "small stereotyped writing" and organize "Sanxin Company" to make a fortune; Loyalty allows him to win the trust of friends around him; Saving face made him appear in public as a good man and established his position as a famous person at sea. After Du became famous, he always wanted to bleach and wash his bottom, so he asked his men to call him "Mr. Du" to add cultural flavor, instead of "Boss Huang" and "Zhang Dashuai".

Despite the above three advantages, Du's success still depends on luck. Du, led by the "green gang" middleman, entered the French Concession Building with expectation and fear. Du's ability and shrewdness were quickly appreciated by Huang. It was the woman behind Huang who made Du brilliant. Once, he was ill and needed a strong man to serve him. Du volunteered to shoulder the burden. This woman not only likes smoking opium, but also likes to rob opium to make money. Every time Huang finds opium on board, he tells her the news. In a soil (opium) grabbing operation, A Guang, who took the lead, shared two packs of opium with others, and Du also participated. Afterwards, he told Lin Guisheng about it. Lin Guisheng was furious. After Huang Jinrong came forward to drive Hiro away, he was furious and thought that the death penalty could be exempted, but the crime of living could not be spared. Du Yuesheng caught up with Hiro, understood it, moved it, persuaded the other side of friendship, and cut off a finger. Du with this, more got the esteem.

Du, who started his own business, licensed the "Gongxingji" casino under Huang's license and collected monthly interest. In view of the trend of "skinning pigs" in casinos, Du settled the "small stereotyped writing" on the condition of taking 10% profit, and let them turn gamblers into gamblers. The establishment of Sanxin Company with Huang Hejin (later joined) is the most solid step for Du to establish himself in the Jianghu. On the surface, this company is engaged in real estate, but in fact it is engaged in opium trafficking. At this time, Huang was kidnapped on the stage by Lu, the son of Zhejiang Governor, with a group of people, because of a player named Lu Lanchun. Although Huang was rescued safely under the action of Du He, he did not lose face, but his mind was severely hit and he gradually gave up. In return, Huang built two houses for Du and Zhang Xiu on Wage Road. Since then, No.216 Wagha Road has become a prosperous Du Mansion.

With the rising status of Jianghu, Du began to feel dissatisfied with his status as a rogue tycoon. He used the power of the gang to intervene in major financial industries through various means and got many titles of "chairman"; During the flood in Zhejiang, Sun Baoqi launched the donation activity of "Helping Villagers in Disaster Relief", and Du donated 1 10,000 yuan; The workers of the French concession hydropower company went on strike because of unfair treatment, and Du intervened in the labor unrest. In order to make friends with famous and powerful people, Du Fu is responsive, spends money like water, and is irresponsible for making irresponsible remarks to ordinary people. When he has no money, he has no money, and when he has money, he has little left.

Relations with the Kuomintang

From 65438 to 0927, the Northern Expedition was in full swing. Chiang Kai-shek was afraid of the rapid expansion of * * * forces and intended to "consolidate the Party". In March, Chen Qun and yang hu invited the three richest people in Shanghai to jointly plan and set up a "joint progress meeting". On the evening of April 0, Du invited the chairman of Shanghai Federation of Trade Unions to Du Mansion. Yet we called and urged a thousand times before she started toward us's "Four donkey kong" immediately killed the king and rushed to the bridge for burial. 4. 12 coup officially kicked off. Later, tens of thousands of "progressive association" personnel attacked the workers' picket headquarters and Chaozhou Hall. * * * Shanghai's power has suddenly shrunk.

193 1 year, Du's reputation reached its peak. In June this year, Dujia Temple opened in Gao Qiao, Pudong. On the opening day of the shrine, famous people with high power and profound morality, such as Chiang Kai-shek, Zhang Xueliang and Zhang Taiyan, offered plaques and inscriptions. The temple fair lasted for three days, with nearly 1000 seats of banquets and performances by Peking Opera masters such as Mei Lanfang. A gangster who started as a gangster, although he founded Zhonghui Bank, still secretly took advantage of it by various cunning means and was sought after by both black and white. Li's secretary, Rao, wrote a couplet for Du: three thousand guests in Chunshen and five feet in Komori.

Du is not only loyal, but also has backbone, not a traitor like that. After the Japanese army invaded the Northeast, Du continued to raise funds to support the Northeast Volunteers. During the November 28th Incident in Shanghai, he participated in the "Shanghai Anti-Enemy Support Association" and supported the 19 Route Army in the anti-Japanese war. When he learned that Japanese soldiers had infiltrated the French Concession and were ready to attack the national army, Du vowed to burn everything and force Japanese soldiers to leave the French Concession. 1937 When War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression broke out, Du actively responded to the financial policy of the government at that time and donated a lot of property to support the Anti-Japanese War.

Du, everyone who goes to Shanghai will hear him and everyone who writes about Shanghai will write about him. He is history. The ups and downs of his life reflect the strangeness of his time. According to the notes in Cambridge History of the Republic of China, Du is the most difficult but influential China native in Shanghai.

His daughter said that when Du was seriously ill, he asked Qian Yongming, editor-in-chief of News, to write back to Chairman Mao. Unfortunately, his friend was drunk and sent the letter to Chiang Kai-shek by mistake. If Du really returned to the mainland as an official in his later years, history would not be like this.

Du, a yakuza in Gao Qiao Town, is famous for Mr. Du. Now in history, he is the boss of the underworld.

old age

Shanghai fell and he arrived in Hong Kong. In Hong Kong, Du is still not idle. He used his influence to take many famous people away from the occupied areas and prevent them from becoming stooges of Japanese or Wang puppets. At the same time, he also directed the Shanghai gangsters to cooperate with Dai Li's army to assassinate traitors, including his best friend Zhang Xiaolin. After the fall of Hong Kong, Du went to Chongqing, founded Tongji Company, and did barter business in Kuomintang-controlled areas and occupied areas, so that the Japanese army could get the needed materials. 1945 With the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Du thought that Chiang Kai-shek, who had been following him, would give him a good meal. Unfortunately, in order to clarify his relationship with the underworld, Jiang no longer values Du.

After the defeat of the Kuomintang in Taiwan Province, Du chose Hong Kong as his refuge after careful consideration. Kennedy 18 became Du's humble abode in the last three years of his life. He died here and longed to be buried in Gao Qiao, but he is still buried in Keelung. How many 193 1 year are there in life? Until 1953, Huang died in Shanghai at the age of 86, while Du made a curtain call the day before his 65th birthday.

His life in his later years was bleak, and there were four reasons for his early death.

First, Chiang Kai-shek's ingratitude. Chiang Kai-shek once worshipped Huang as his teacher, and Huang was also very generous to Chiang Kai-shek. Jiang has a close relationship with gangsters. 1927, it was Du and others who paid for guns to set up a trap and organized hundreds of thugs to set out from the French Concession before completing his plot to "clean up the Party" in Shanghai. After the 28th Incident, Jiang thought that Du Fu's support for the Anti-Japanese War undermined his overall deployment, and he had a bad feeling towards Du Fu. When he arrived in Chongqing, Jiang was deeply moved by Du Fu's help and deliberately cut off one or two to make an example. 1945, Du returned to Shanghai with lofty sentiments, hoping to further enter and leave his career from the bottom up, but Jiang shattered his dream of being the mayor of Shanghai, while his disciple Wu Shaoshu, although a deputy mayor, did not buy his account at all; Second best, Du hoped to become the speaker of the Shanghai Senate, but this did not satisfy his wish. After being elected, he had to resign immediately and hand over the matter to Pan Gongzhan and Xu selected by Jiang. During his life in Hongkong, Chiang Kai-shek invited him to Taiwan Province for three transgressions and four times, but it was obviously to prevent the Communist Party of China.

Du didn't want to go to the province, but he left home. In addition, after the victory of the Anti-Japanese War, Xuan and Zeng listed Du's power as the source of disturbing the market and social order, and even arrested Du's right-hand man Wan and Du's son Du Weiping. Du's troubled times are over. Du, who has helped countless people all his life, is always respectful to Chiang Kai-shek, but what Chiang Kai-shek has done makes him feel chilling. In his later years, whenever I think of this person, I'm afraid Du will not be in a good mood.

Second, asthma. This disease is fatal. 1939, Du learned that Gao Zongwu in Wang's puppet was interested in it anyway, so he flew to Chongqing to discuss with Chiang Kai-shek. On his way back, he was chased by a Japanese plane. Fortunately, the pilots were high and low, and the whole crew saved their lives. However, Du Yuesheng couldn't stand the bumps on the plane, especially the thin air at high altitude. He suffered from asthma. It was Du's mediation that enabled Gao Zongwu and Hongkong to have successful contacts, and contributed to the emergence of the Japanese King's secret agreement.

Third, superstition. Du is no exception. At that time, Du followed Huang to visit the Chenghuang Temple and met a fortune-telling monk who was very accurate about his future. Later, he was in charge of Li's safety on the public stage. He heard the doorman say that he saw several foxes rushing out of the public stage. Later, Huang fell down. When Du was sick and dying, he relied on fortune telling. Although a fortune teller clearly said something nice to Du, Du still didn't believe it, and let people bring their birthday to Taiwan Province Province, and let the "June Hotel Owner" in Taiwan Province Province calculate: "I am 64 years old, and my life is definitely not good in Xinmao."

Fourth, ambition is no longer. At the worst time, Du's business card was full of titles, making friends and making money like water, but he dictated his will before he died, leaving only a sum of hundreds of thousands of dollars to his relatives. After leaving Shanghai and those old days, who still believes that he can lay such a new world? Zhonghui Bank, which can make him stand on the table, can't move away. It is still in Shanghai and within the sphere of influence of the Chinese Communist Party. Everything disappeared like a cold wind sweeping away leaves.

On August 7th, Du handed over the funeral, and then quietly waited for the arrival of death. /kloc-in August of 0/6, Du, a product of troubled times, died hopelessly. Zhang Xiaolin, nicknamed "Tricolor Enjoyment", was born in Cixi, Zhejiang. He went to Shanghai with green gang rogue Ji Yunqing on 19 12. He first made ducks and sold tonics, and gradually became one of the leaders of the French Concession in green gang, opening casinos, brothels and playing with women. His businesses include opium, gauze, transportation and banking. After the fall of Shanghai, he organized the "New Asia Peace Promotion Association" to purchase and transport military materials for the Japanese army. Later, he accepted the appointment of the Japanese puppet government and prepared to be the governor of Zhejiang Province. 1940 In August, Lin Huaibu, a bodyguard, was bought by Kuomintang agents and shot dead. That's how movies are played.
