During the late Qing Dynasty, Silas Aaron Hardoon, a Jew born in Baghdad, emerged as a highly successful businessman in Shanghai. He would eventually own approximately 1,400 buildings on Nanjing Road, an area that remains the city’s central business district to this day. But following his death, his business empire fell apart.
