This couplet was written by Zuo, a national hero in the late Qing Dynasty. Li Ka-shing chose to hang this calligraphy, which was recommended by Chen Bo, the first Feng Shui master in Hong Kong. This "God of Wealth" not only contains the wisdom of dealing with people, but also brings good luck and wealth to Li Ka-shing.
Make a first-class wish, get a first-class marriage and enjoy a second-class blessing.
Li Ka-shing has been in business for 70 years. He started as a salesman. At that time, Li Ka-shing was determined to achieve something great, that is, "make a good wish". How can he succeed if he doesn't even have the courage to be ambitious?
Good luck and good wishes are hard-won, and just waiting for them will only miss many opportunities. Life can be "married" is very valuable. Fate has its own fate, let nature take its course and seize the opportunity when it comes.
Enjoying inferior wealth does not mean being an ascetic or suffering, but even if you succeed, you should not waste it. The ancients said: "frugality is defeated by luxury", and a frugal attitude towards life is the long-term way to cherish happiness and keep a family.
The following is the original calligraphy of Li Mengyao, a famous calligrapher who signed a contract with Jiyazhai.

Choose a high place to stand, find a flat place to live and walk to a wide place.
As the saying goes, "Man struggles upwards", only by standing high can he see far. To achieve great things, ability is important, but foresight and vision are more important, which determines a person's pattern and his achievements. To "stand tall" means to have foresight.
Just like building a house in a flat place, so is being a man. Find a stable place to live, do things in a down-to-earth manner, take the right path and be a good person, in order to live a stable and practical life.
Be tolerant of others and be a generous person. Being lenient with others in life can not only be smooth and generous, but also win the goodwill and respect of others. Generosity wins people's hearts, those who win people's hearts win the world, and those who are expected to return can achieve great things.
