Synopsis

Shen Wansan is honored as the living god of wealth by Chinese people. As a legend, he is the first model of wealth in thousands of years. With only a part of his thinking and behaving methods, Hu Xueyan reached great success in his life. He is the greatest national capitalist in ancient China and an outstanding pioneer of Chinas international trade; he is the soul of Zhouzhuang, the founder of Nanjing city and the pioneer of the Ancient Tea Horse Road. The Biography of Shen Wansan and the Gold Empire records the legends of Shen Wansan who becomes the most wealthy man in the Ming dynasty from a farmer. The Biography of Shen Wansan and the Gold Empire tells Shen Wansans life stories. He was born in a farmer family in the late Yuan dynasty, and he kills Yuan soldiers and begs for food together with Zhu Yuanzhang, the first emperor of the Ming dynasty, at his early age. Liu Bowen always wants to make him an emperor, but what Shen Wansan wants to become is a businessman. Then he encounters Zhang Sanfeng the Tai-Chi Master and becomes a Taoist. He spends gold on one throw and bets with the emperor and wins the title of white-collar emperor. He has been through ups and downs in his life: his wealth could compare with the entire nation, but he also experienced the bitterness of social relationship. The Treasure Bowl, his famous weapon, is still being copied and worshiped by numerous businessmen. When he is about to die, he learns from Cao Cao and Genghis Khan and arranges a fake grave in Yingzibang. The fake grave is filled with secret traps and has killed so many grave robers. This book is written by Ma Pan.
