In 1995, General Zhang Xueliang died of illness in Hawaii, causing a global sensation. However, what is even more shocking is the balance of his bank account, which is comparable to that of a "rich country"! Today, we will uncover this historical mystery and explore the mystery of General Zhang Xueliang's wealth**.
General Zhang Xueliang's father, Zhang Zuolin, the leader of the Beiyang Army, is worth a lot. However, it was in the year Zhang Xueliang was born that Zhang Zuolin's career was frustrated and experienced a trough. Attacked by bandits and on the way to give birth to a child, this year was destined to be extraordinary for Zhang Xueliang's family.
Xiaoliang was fortunate to benefit from his father's power and lived a wealthy life since he was a child. Zhang Zuolin generously gave him pocket money every month and prepared several fields for him. In his early years, Zhang Xueliang was already a wealthy man.
Guo Songling was Zhang Xueliang's teacher, who not only taught him military talents, but also cultivated his unique vision for calligraphy and painting. Zhang Xueliang fell into the charm of collecting calligraphy and paintings, and even earned hundreds of thousands of silver dollars at auction. This peculiar friendship made Zhang Xueliang's fortune flourish.
Yu Fengzhi, who is married to Zhang Xueliang, not only has business acumen, but also skillfully handles the finances of the Shuai Mansion. She did not hesitate to use all her wealth to support Zhang Xueliang, and even helped him maintain his calligraphy and painting business during difficult times. Yu Fengzhi became the silent hero of Zhang Xueliang's success.
After Zhang Zuolin's death, Zhang Xueliang quickly stabilized the situation in the northeast and prevented the Japanese army from seeing the slightest flaw. He collected large taxes from the provinces while inheriting his father's property. Even as the Northeast descends into chaos, his fortune still stands.
Zhang Xueliang once persuaded Zhang Zuolin not to blatantly return to the Northeast, but Zhang Zuolin insisted on returning. The Japanese army placed gunpowder to detonate the special train, and Zhang Zuolin was seriously injured and dying. Zhang Xueliang succeeded in stabilizing the situation in Northeast China, and Chiang Kai-shek also showed trust and support to him, providing him with financial support.
Faced with the Japanese threat, Zhang Xueliang and Yang Hucheng decided to force Chiang Kai-shek to resist the Japanese. During the Xi'an Incident, they succeeded in placing Chiang Kai-shek under house arrest and made great contributions to the resolution of the anti-Japanese war of national unity. Zhang Xueliang's determination and Chiang Kai-shek's trust made this history.
During the years of Zhang Xueliang's house arrest, Chiang Kai-shek's wealth was completely controlled. Chiang Kai-shek provided monthly subsidies and was responsible for his food, clothing, housing and transportation. However, Zhang Xueliang's wife Yu Fengzhi was successful in the United States** and earned him a lot of money.
During Zhang Xueliang's house arrest, his wealth was not damaged. Real estate such as bank accounts, real estate, and land still exist. These properties showed an astonishing value after his release, becoming a support for him after settling in Hawaii.
It was not until 1990, after ** came to power, that General Zhang Xueliang ended his 54-year house arrest career. It also marked his departure from Taiwan to spend his old age in Hawaii.
