Culture of Shanxi Merchants

 

 Persistence and Initiative
The Yang family also rose in the latter part of the Qing Dynasty. They aimed to oppose the dumping of the external forces. The Yangs tried hard to organize domestic producers of precious medicines, to resist the cheap purchase of these goods by the outside forces. Once they have accumulated enough wealth, they also invested in pawnshops, banks, medicine shops, and so on, and finally became a powerful family in Shanxi.

The success of the abovementioned four families could be attributed to their business acumen, their great efforts, and equally important, their spirits of generosity, tolerance, and persistence. Besides, they all shared the common belief that culture and education was critical for their further development and success.
