My first immigrant couple, Liu, trudged thousands of miles with their belongings on their backs and followed the immigrant team to Dongbali, En County. After decompression, they can settle down. This place is full of yellow sand and grass, and mosquitoes are flying around in the potholed swamp, and snakes and scorpions are rampant. A group of people looked for their own homes, but everyone got together and lived next door to take care of each other. Wang, Liu and Chen are close, but there are other surnames in the distance, and there are also several local aborigines. Everyone began to settle down in their new home. In the face of a tough environment, everyone in Qi Xin worked together to help each other, work together, reap together, share happiness, pay attention to planting mulberry and sericulture, manage families thrifty and accumulate wealth. Respect local customs and learn to integrate into local society. Only under that condition can we survive, and its virtues are passed down from generation to generation: being kind to others, being honest and upright, being sincere and diligent, and self-denial and self-discipline. Even in the middle of the Ming Dynasty, the society was stable, the economy developed steadily, the living conditions were good, and the three surnames all thrived and built their own villages, but everyone still maintained a good relationship of mutual assistance (even nepotism). Don't care about small profits, don't hold grudges because of small anger.

During the Chongzhen period in the late Ming Dynasty, the "trinity of drought, locust plague and plague" in the northern region broke out and became some basic situations. The scope and intensity of drought and locust plague are very large, during which plague broke out and died. "Overnight, people fled and the city was empty." I was years old, hungry in Shandong, and my father and son ate each other in Texas. Pedestrians were cut off and thieves were arrogant. In November of the sixteenth year of Chongzhen, Shen Bing earthquake occurred. At this time, the peasant army uprising has been more than ten years. At this time, Huang taiji in the north continued to harass and invade, and the Ming and Ting fronts were attacked, and the people were burdened with heavy military pay and taxes. In the winter of the 11th year of Chongzhen (1638), Huang taiji sent Dourgen to command an army to bypass Mongolia, break through the Great Wall, go south along the canal, and reach Jinan, where he captured 460,000 people and animals. A large number of fertile fields are barren and the population is declining. Production was destroyed.
Judging from the big social environment, natural and man-made disasters have a great impact on society, and the destruction of war during regime change is unimaginable. Without national stability, people's life safety cannot be guaranteed. The family population has dropped sharply, and it is good that every household has connections to pass on. Later generations have little record of this period. Under the oppression of famine, war and plague, it is impossible for all ethnic groups to be immune. "The roots are deep and leafy, but they don't leave." Only the spirit of "helping each other in the same boat, going to the national disaster and fighting together" can save the family and village. Relying on the collective strength of families and villages to overcome plagues and natural disasters. "If there is any difference, watch and help each other." Therefore, the Liu family kept their personal relationship.

"Brothers are United, and their profits are broken." The fifteenth ancestor Liu Ji paid tribute to Chunting, his brother Liu Ji paid tribute to Futing, and his mother Zhang. Born in the troubled times of the late Qing Dynasty, he experienced a scuffle in the Republic of China, eight years of anti-Japanese war, civil war between the Kuomintang and the Communist Party, and after the founding of the People's Republic of China. His life track also fluctuates with the historical trend, especially in the first half of his life, the two brothers helped each other in the same boat in difficulties and did business in good faith, leaving many beautiful stories for future generations. The sai-jo Liu Ji-chun studied in a private school for several years, then went to the new school in Enxian County, then to Ren Zhongxue alone in Dongchangfu, and finally went to the army school in Dongchangfu, during which he accepted the Three People's Principles. He stopped going home because of his father's sudden death, but the cultural thought of "saving the country through industry" influenced his life. Although Liu Futing has never studied it, he never forgets anything when he opens his mouth to settle accounts.
Help each other in the same boat, start a business and get married.
According to the local actual conditions, the two brothers decided to open an oil mill, and with the support of their mother Zhang, they actively helped to prepare funds, and the difficult road to entrepreneurship began. In order to run the oil mill well, the sai-jo Liu Qichun Pavilion often eats and lives in a small south room next to the oil mill, and works and eats with the guys when he is busy. His younger brother, Liu Fu Tingong, is in charge of takeout. Although he can't read and keep accounts, he is an expert in accounting. Every time he goes home to report to his brother, he always comes with his mouth open, how much oil he gives out, how much oil he takes back and how much he sells. The accounts of that day are clear in your mind, and the reconciliation is not bad at all. The "iron abacus" known as the "two shopkeepers". The surplus grain in the oil mill is kept by mother Zhang, and brothers, sons and nephews share the same pot. They never separated until the oil mill was confiscated after liberation and his mother died.
Sincere and harmonious, benevolence and righteousness prosper the family.
Liu Shizu taboo spring court tribute to divide all kinds of oil crops very carefully, without mixing or participating, and took the trouble to personally put a price tag on each oil extraction process. The oil was good and the oil was bad, and he never bullied the weak and feared the hard and was not satisfied. He is kind to his buddies. When he is busy with farming, he adds vegetables to his buddies, which is sometimes better than what he eats at home. I also gave dozens of pounds of oil during the Chinese New Year. Whoever is short of oil in the village will be charged, and cottonseed, soybeans and other oils will be available after next autumn. Liu Futing shuttled through the street in a carriage, responsible for buying oilseeds and selling oil. Liu Jia Oil Mill will get better and better every year. And famous. Before the Anti-Japanese War, my Liu family began to get better and lived well, and a "revival house" appeared. This family also has social status and is rich. During the eight years of War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression and the War of Liberation, Sai-jo adhered to the principle of "sincerity-oriented, valuing righteousness and making small profits". Whoever has difficulties at home will lend a helping hand, and the neighborhood will be harmonious, rich without forgetting benevolence and righteousness, and be good at helping others. During the national crisis, it is difficult to maintain this operation and help villages.
The insider is prosperous; He who is harmonious outside is frugal in personnel.
