In fact, there are not many records about Wu Pin, the only son of Wu Weiwen. By the Qing Dynasty, the Wu family's salt business reached its peak, with shops all over the country, which was very popular with Wu Weiwen's family. However, Wu Weiwen had only one son, Wu Pin. It is said that Wu Pin was weak, sickly, terminally ill and died young.
However, there is also speculation that Wu Pin was poisoned by poisoning his family at that time, and there is no actual record about who died of illness or was banned in the history of Wu Pin.
In the TV series, Wu Pin's family is very rich, and his family businesses are all over the world, but Wu Pin in reality is more powerful than Wu Pin in the drama. Wu Pin is a man of great knowledge. According to Pang Man, a Jingyang writer, Shitu and Wu Weiwen are both officials and businessmen. Wu Weiwen is a doctor, and his official position is second to none. He used to be a post in Houtaotai, Hubei, and a magistrate in Ningwu, Shanxi, and was also a figure.
Moreover, Zhou Ying played by Sun Li is also a famous family in history.
After Wu Weiwen and his death, Zhou Ying developed the impoverished Wu family into an extremely rich business empire.
Zhou Ying didn't get married in the end. She worked hard in business all her life. Until now, her business philosophy has been widely circulated.
I think Wu Pin died of his own disease, because after all, the medical technology at that time was very underdeveloped, and many diseases could not be cured. There are countless people who die of diseases every year, so Wu Pin probably died of a serious illness, and there are many records showing that Wu Pin was in poor health since he was a child.
As for the TV series Wu Pin, he was poisoned and bled to death, perhaps for the effect of the program.
