My chinese is too basic to get through, but also the calligraphic style is not my level :(( it would be great at least to have it in "printed characters" This was a present from a good friend, she bought the scroll in Xiamen Thanks!

Norris2000 Posted June 27, 2019 at 06:25 PM Report Share Posted June 27, 2019 at 06:25 PM There are five sentences in total: 天道酬勤、地道酬善、人道酬誠、商道酬信、業道酬精 勤: diligent 善: kindness 誠: honesty 信(in business): integrity 精(in industry): profession These words are from ancient Chinese philosophy. The main idea is that, a good person should possess these 5 traits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
