The ancients said: Heaven has four pillars—east, west, south, and north;
A nation has four pillars—ritual, etiquette, integrity, and shame.
If the four pillars are not properly maintained, the nation will inevitably perish.
Hu Xueyan, a renowned merchant of his time, combined the power of the officialdom, the commercial world, and the foreign affairs arena. He rose to prominence, accumulated immense wealth, and became historically famous as the "Red-Cap Merchant." Although his success was influenced by external factors, what was more important was that he possessed the qualities of a great merchant of his generation. These qualities can be summarized as the four pillars of business: wisdom, benevolence, courage, and trustworthiness.
In today's society, which is a market economy, the most direct requirement it places on merchants is the ability to observe and make decisions based on "seizing the moment and following the trend," as well as the outstanding operational ability to "eight jars and seven lids—always covering without gaps." Hu Xueyan excelled in applying his abilities to experience the "Four Virtues," achieving a brilliant career and leaving behind many classic cases and broad spaces for reflection for modern readers.
The structure of this book follows the Four Virtues of merchants—wisdom, benevolence, courage, and trustworthiness—as its thread, systematically organizing Hu Xueyan's successful business strategies and experiences in applying the "Four Pillars of Business."
This book is divided into four volumes:
The Heavenly Pillar Volume · Wisdom;
The Earthly Pillar Volume · Benevolence;
The Divine Pillar Volume · Courage;
The Human Pillar Volume · Trust.
