Wang Lung was obsessed about what other men thought of him and strived to be the best farmer and wealthiest man in his community. The first son became greedy because Wang Lung treated all his sons more special than his daughters. His second son inherited his need to save money in order to survive and continue to provide for his family, which was the role of men in Chinese culture.
