Who was the biggest black sheep in the Republic of China?

It is said that wealth is only three generations. Although it can't be said absolutely, there are indeed many people in history who are constantly chauffeured and have lost all the possessions accumulated by their parents. Some of them are caused by bad luck, but some of them are artificial ignorance, and eating, drinking and having fun have ruined a large family's industry.

Today we are going to talk about a famous black sheep in the Republic of China, named Sheng. Before Sheng Xuanhuai, let's talk about his father Sheng Xuanhuai. Sheng Xuanhuai can be said to have made a fortune in troubled times by riding the turbulent east wind in the late Qing Dynasty and the early Republic of China. At that time, Sheng Xuanhuai was appreciated by Li Hongzhang, and with his help, China Merchants, Telegraph Office, Iron and Steel Company, Mining Company and First Trade Bank were established. The first railway, Han Jing Railway, was also built with his investment. At that time, Sheng Xuanhuai had a place in various emerging industries, with a large family business and many enemies. Of course, rich Sheng Xuanhuai is also very keen on public welfare undertakings. He often helps the poor, runs schools and is loved by everyone.

Sheng Xuanhuai married three wives. The first two wives gave birth to three sons and four daughters, but all three sons died unfortunately. His third wife, Mrs. Zhuang, also gave birth to a son, Sheng. The emperor's wives all depend on their children, while Sheng relies on her mother. Because Sheng's mother is deeply loved by the host of Sheng's family, she is also affectionate to Sheng. Coupled with the death of the first three sons, Sheng Ian was taken care of by Sheng Xuanhuai since he was a child.

Sheng became the first heir to the Sheng family business, grew up in a superior environment, and the servants around him were obedient to him, which made him raise the smell of a rich boy. Originally, Sheng Xuanhuai wanted this son to continue to develop his family business, and he was also interested in training him, so he went to one of the companies as a manager. Sheng gets up early every day, is greedy for the dark and looks busy, but he doesn't do it for business at all. He gets up at four or five o'clock every day. The first thing to do when he gets up is to take money out to eat, drink and be merry. The bank was closed and there was no cash at home, so he took his valuables to the pawnshop to pay back the money and waited for the next day.
