It is not uncommon for people who have grown very poor and become rich and successful to “forget” their humble past. However, this is not the case with a Chinese millionaire who, after amassed a respectable fortune, returned to his home village, knocked down all the huts, and built a brand new condominium for 72 families and did it all for free. And the man's generosity didn't stop there!

Xiong Shuihua

According to Julian Robinson of the Daily Mail, Xiong Shuihua - the wealthy Chinese - grew up in a village called Xiongkeng, located in southern China, where people lived in log houses and roamed the muddy, unpaved streets. However, 54-year-old Shuihua eventually became a successful entrepreneur in the steel industry and has amassed millions over the years.

Generosity

Free housing for 72 families

According to Shuihua, despite the difficulties of the past, both he and his family were always treated well and could count on the support of the villagers. So, because the businessman has more money than he can spend, he decided to repay kindness by giving quality housing to everyone, without charging a single cent from former countrymen.

Free meals for seniors and people living on unpaid wages

In addition, 12 families who have been especially kind to Shuihua's relatives in the past have won big houses in a second luxury condominium - also built by the Chinese and whose project cost more than $ 16 million. As if that weren't enough, the man still provides three free meals a day for all elderly residents or those living on low wages.
