肖林夫妇:“百万富翁的无产者”

Xiao Lin and His Wife, "The Millionaire Proletarians"

1941年,中共地下党员肖林奉周恩来指示,与夫人王敏卿开办公司,为党筹措活动经费。到1949年完成使命时,他们一次性向党组织上交的资金约合黄金12万两,固定资产达1000多万美元。

In 1941, Xiao Lin, an underground member of the Communist Party of China, was instructed by Zhou Enlai to set up a company with his wife Wang Minqing to raise funds for the Party's activities. By the time they completed their mission in 1949, they had handed in about 120,000 taels of gold and more than 10 million dollars in fixed assets to the Party organization at one time.

肖林夫妇

肖林,原名肖本仁,1939年加入中国共产党,“肖林”是他常用的笔名。1941年皖南事变爆发,国民政府停发了第十八集团军军饷。为打破国民党反动派的经济封锁,时任中共中央南方局书记的周恩来指派肖林“下海”经商,开展经济活动为党筹措经费。接受任务后,肖林从钱币交易市场开始,学习资金拆借、黄金美钞买卖,赚得了一些收益。19414月,肖林与妻子王敏卿一同回到江津,开办起“恒源字号”商行。

Xiao Lin, whose real name was Xiao Benren, joined the Communist Party of China in 1939, and "Xiao Lin" was his pseudonym. When the Southern Anhui Incident broke out in 1941, the National Government suspended the pay of the 18th Army. In order to break the economic blockade of the Kuomintang reactionaries, Zhou Enlai , then the secretary of the Southern Bureau of the Central Committee of the Communist Party of China, appointed Xiao Lin to go into business and carry out economic activities to raise funds for the Party. After accepting the task, Xiao Lin started learning capital lending, gold and dollars trading in the currency trading market, and at last made some profits. In April 1941 , Xiao Lin and his wife Wang Minqing returned to Jiangjin to start the commercial firm named " Hengyuan".

 

肖林夫妇牢记周恩来的话:“不要怕被人家说是唯利是图。你赚的钱不是为了个人私利,而是为了党的事业。”肖林挣来的钱,为党提供了重要经济保障,只要接到上级指示,他总能在第一时间把钱送到指定地点。

Xiao Lin and his wife firmly kept Zhou Enlai's words in mind,. "Don't be afraid of being said to be mercenary. You make money not for personal gain, but for the great cause of the Party." The money earned by Xiao Lin proved to be an important economic guarantee for the Party. As long as he received instructions from his superiors, he could always send the money to the designated place in time.

肖林夫妇留下的三枚银元

19495月,上海解放,肖林进入军事管理委员会轻工业处,接管中国纺织品公司,他向党组织上交之前经营结余资金,约合黄金12万两和折价1000多万美元的固定资产,自己只留下当时流通的3块银元作为纪念,他也因此被称为“百万富翁的无产者”。1997年,肖林将他珍藏了40多年的银元也捐给了博物馆收藏。

After the liberation of Shanghai in May 1949, Xiao Lin joined the Light Industry Department of the Military Administration Commission and took over the China Textile Company. He handed over his previous operating surplus to the Party, which was about 120,000 taels of gold and fixed assets of more than 10 million dollars, leaving only three silver coins in circulation then as a memento. Therefore, he was called "a millionaire proletarian". In 1997, Xiao Lin donated the three silver dollars, which he had kept for more than 40 years, to the museum.
