Wearing a papier-mâché crown, he stepped on Chang'an Road. Zhulun people on Chang'an Road, the foreign government loves Lianchengbao. It is said that Liaodong offered white pigs, and the old man sneered at Liu Lao. Emperor Wu Xiongshi is expanding his territory, and he is praised for destroying his family.
Sadly, it is difficult to fill the pie, and those who have money are plagued by poverty.
Liang Caishen, formerly known as Liang Zuoyou, one day in September 1932, he walked into the gate of Shandong Province. Although his appearance is ordinary, his height is less than 1.5 meters, he is still a "Luo Guo", his legs are a little inconvenient, and he limps when he walks, but he is carrying a small leather box that is half new and not old, which contains most of his family wealth and is ready to donate to **.
When he walked into the gate, the guards wanted him to leave, but he was unmoved, and said slowly: "I am Liang Zuoyou, a villager of Huangxian County, and I am willing to donate half of my family wealth to **, please pass it on to Chairman Han." ”
Han Fuyu once accepted a donor, but in the face of Liang Zuoyou, who claimed to be willing to donate half of his furniture, his attitude was very cold. Liang Zuoyou is not an obese rich man, but a commendable person who supports the construction of the country, and he is willing to donate 30 million yuan.
Han Fuyu was so surprised that he almost pulled off his beard. In the face of his suspicions, Liang Zuoyou was not afraid, but explained with a smile: "Chairman Han may think that I am deceiving, but I can tell you clearly that my ancestor was Liang Shicheng, the imperial lieutenant of the Northern Song Dynasty, and left a lot of gold and silver treasures. ”
Seeing Liang Zuoyou being so honest, Han Fuyu also changed his expression and said politely: "Please sit, please sit, Mr. Liang, you don't have to be polite." Then he turned to the guard and said, "Give Mr. Liang the best cigarettes and tea." ”
After some conversation, Liang Zuoyou offered to discuss the donation directly with Jiang Bocheng, the representative of **, and put forward his own suggestions on the use of the donation. Han Fuyu immediately agreed, and arranged for Liang Zuoyou to enjoy high-end treatment at the Provincial State Guest House.
Coincidentally, Jiang Bocheng was inspecting Shandong at the time, so before Liang Zuoyou returned to Liangjia Village, Han Fuyu arranged for them to meet.
After Jiang Bocheng and Liang Zuoyou talked for half an hour, they came to a conclusion: "Mr. Liang is quiet, educated, and sincere, and should be credible." After hearing this conclusion, Han Fuyu immediately decided to send a telegram to Nanjing.
Liang Zuoyou, a villager in Liangjia Village, Huang County, decided to donate half of his 60 million family property to alleviate the country's difficulties." Lang Xiande, magistrate of Huang County, Xu Shuming, director of the Education Bureau, and Du Lexian, director of the Zhiying Bureau, held a special meeting to discuss the matter.
Du Le was skeptical. In Huang County, all "Rong households" were investigated and registered by the branch bureau. For those who have money, this is equivalent to "being famous and rewarding", so when they first registered, they all rushed to be the first, but later found out that it was to facilitate the tax rate, so they regretted it.
Now, who wants to be in the limelight? Besides, Du Lexian had never heard of a wealthy family with more than 30 million assets in the county.
Some people hold opposing opinions, and it is not uncommon to see examples of getting rich overnight and losing overnight. Three years ago, Zhang Zongchang entered Shandong for the third time, and after fighting with Liu Zhennian, he was defeated and fled, leaving behind a lot of baggage, among which it is said that there was also a military check deposited in Japan's Dafeng Bank.
Perhaps Liang Zuoyou failed to withdraw money from a foreign bank in his personal name, so he solved the problem through diplomatic channels in the name of donating to the country. Everyone argued endlessly, and finally decided to let Ruru go to the field to investigate.
Lang Xiande ordered Zhang Jianbang, the head of District 8, to investigate Liang Zuoyou's background. At that time, population mobility was low, and it was not uncommon for a family not to migrate for hundreds of years. Liang Zuoyou's background was quickly investigated.
Liang Zuoyou, born in 1901, has only a primary school education. When he was young, he was disabled due to fever and convulsions, and he was engaged in his early years, but after the death of his father, the woman regretted the marriage because Liang Zuoyou's family was poor and ugly.
The Liang family currently has three people, including Liang's mother, Liang Zuoyou and Liang Mei. Although Liang Mei is married, she still often goes back to her parents' house to take care of her old mother and take care of housework. Liang Zuoyou also has a younger brother, Liang Zuolu, who makes a living in the Kanto region.
Liang Zuoyou is a farmer who makes a living by cultivating an acre of thin fields, and he works as a bookkeeper and salesman in a hosiery factory in Longkou in his spare time, and his life is barely able to make ends meet. His fortune seems to be exaggerated, estimated at only 60 million.
When they considered whether to report to the relevant authorities, Nanjing issued instructions for them to escort Liang Zuoyou and Jiang Bocheng to Beijing. Even the county ** knew that someone was sent to investigate, and it was impossible for Han Fuyu, who was the provincial chairman, not to know this.
He also suspected that Liang Shicheng was a eunuch, so he sent Huang Ziqiang, the Fifth Road General Headquarters of the Ludong Mintuan, to Liangjia Village to reconnoitre. Huang Ziqiang concluded that Liang Zuoyou was not mentally normal.
But Han Fuyu did not report the incident to his superiors, because on the one hand, he believed that even people with mental problems could have great wealth, and if the donation was genuine, he would be able to benefit from it; On the other hand, even if there is fraud in it, it is not his responsibility, because this is a risk that Nanjing ** is willing to take and has nothing to do with him.
He never said that he would send Liang Zuoyou, a mentally ill person, to Nanjing.
He was content to sit on the sidelines and watch the actions of the Nanjing authorities.
Liang Zuoyou made great contributions to the country and his hometown during the ** period. This Mid-Autumn Festival, he was accompanied by Lang Xiande and Xu Shuming and other county *** to the bus station.
Before leaving, Lang Xiande made a request to him: the county planned to build a large stadium and a large auditorium, but financial difficulties prevented it from happening. Therefore, Lang Xiande hopes that Liang Zuoyou can work with local celebrities to show grace and vigorously support this project.
Liang Zuoyou expressed his willingness to do his best, and offered to wait for him to return from Jinjing before discussing with the county magistrate in detail. On behalf of the local elders, Lang Xiande expressed his gratitude to Liang Zuoyou.
Despite his anger, Lang Xiande still pretended to be serious, smiled and said goodbye to Liang Zuoyou, and watched him get into the car. When Liang Zuoyou arrived at Jinan Railway Station at 7:40 a.m. the next morning, he attracted the attention of reporters such as "Jinan**", and they rushed to the scene.
However, Han Fuyu and the provincial ** personnel chose to remain silent and did not say a word. Nanjing was worried that Han Fuyu would obstruct it and prevent this "God of Wealth" from coming to Beijing, but after learning that Liang Zuoyou had already set off, it decided to "warmly welcome Mr. Liang".
Kong Xiangxi, Chen Lifu, Gu Zhenglun, Zhang Jingjiang, Zhang Jiaao and others personally went to the station to greet them, and arranged for a military police company to be responsible for guarding and escorting Liang Zuoyou to the Daxing Palace ** Hotel.
Although Liang Zuoyou is simple and low-key, he is very stylish. For the general crowd and **, he always maintains a cold posture and is unwilling to waste time. Even if he was **high-level**, he only coped with the scene and talked about important matters such as donations, and he had to personally meet with Chairman Chiang.
However, in reality, Chiang Kai-shek was in Hankow and could not meet him. Despite this, Song Ziwen, vice president of the Executive Yuan and minister of finance, warmly entertained Liang Zuoyou and invited him to have dinner at the official residence of the Arctic Pavilion on Jilong Mountain in the east of the city, accompanied by Zhang Jingjiang, a member of the state government, and others.
At the banquet, Vice Minister of Finance Li Tiaosheng also took a group photo with Liang Zuoyou. However, they still can't get the real information about Liang Zuoyou. After the meal, Zhang Jingjiang wanted to give Liang Zuoyou a cane to show his concern, but he politely refused.
However, Zhang Jingjiang was not embarrassed by this, and he still expressed his admiration for Liang Zuoyou in an interview, calling him "a man of generosity and sorrow in Yan and Zhao, and Qilu is a state of sages and sages."
Wizards, Wizards. ”
Liang Zuoyou's generous donation attracted widespread attention from the community, and many newspapers reported his kindness on the front page, calling him a "righteous man of Shandong". However, Nanjing's in-depth study of the distribution of the 30 million donations, while Liang Zuoyou's insistence on meeting Chiang Kai-shek in person has led some to question his motives.
Despite the doubts about his mental state, Soong Ziwen and He Yingqin and others still decided to report the matter to Chiang Kai-shek. Hearing that someone wanted to donate 30 million, Chiang Kai-shek was overjoyed and decided to meet Liang Zuoyou.
Therefore, Nanjing urgently arranged a cruise ship to send Liang Zuoyou to Hankou.
Chiang Kai-shek once asked Liang Zuoyou to donate 10 million yuan to relieve the victims and meet the urgent military needs, Liang Zuoyou promised to remit money from Tianjin within 7 days, but not a penny was remitted after seven days, but suggested that each person in the country should donate at least 5 jiao a year, and 20,000 yuan could be raised every year.
After the Nanjing investigation found out the truth, it decided to drive Liang Zuoyou away, but he didn't want to appear "stingy", so he instructed the Hankou police chief to drive Liang Zuoyou away.
Liang Zuoyou was deported by the Hankou Police Department for pretending to be a wealthy man and defrauding him, but he was reluctant to leave because he had no travel and accommodation expenses. In desperation, the police department helped him solve these problems.
After Liang Zuoyou returned home, he lived a life of isolation and died of illness in June 1946 at the age of 45.
