Besides Guan Gong, Zhao Gongming, Bigan, and Fan Li, who else are the so-called "Nine Gods of Wealth"?

In Chinese tradition, everything must be orthodox and complete. Because there is a saying that "one can win from all directions", we have set up nine gods of wealth, hoping that we can earn more money from many aspects and live a better life. Among the Nine Gods of Wealth, in addition to Guan Gong, Zhao Gongming, Bigan, and Fan Li, there are also Wang Hai, Zhou Shizong Chai Rong, Li Gui, Duanmu Ci, and Liu Haichan.

Let’s take a look at their corresponding directions. The God of Wealth is Wang Hai, who is revered as the "ancestor of Chinese businessmen" and the "head of the God of Wealth". It is said that he led his tribe to engage in trading activities, and asked people to call those engaged in buying and selling activities merchants, and the items traded were called commodities. The Eastern God of Wealth is Bigan. Legend has it that Bigan lost his selfishness after his heart was dug out, so the Emperor of Heaven asked him to manage the treasure house where his finances were stored. The Western God of Wealth is Guan Yu. The Southern God of Wealth is Chai Rong. After becoming the emperor, he vigorously developed business and won the support of businessmen and became the God of Wealth.

The Northern God of Wealth is Zhao Gongming. In the Ming Dynasty, he became the God of Wealth who could explain fairness and seek wealth through buying and selling. Fan Li, the God of Wealth in the Southeast, went into business three times and became a rich man each time. However, every time he spent all his wealth to benefit the people, he was revered as the God of Wealth. Li Gui, the God of Wealth in the Northeast, is considered the "God of Wealth that Increases Blessings." He was a minor official in the Northern Wei Dynasty, but he treated the people well and developed production, and over time he was revered as the God of Wealth. The Southwest God of Wealth is Duanmu Ci, who is also Zigong in the Analects of Confucius. He traveled between Cao and Lu to do business. Because he accumulated a lot of wealth and paid attention to credit, later generations also praised his style as "Duanmu Legacy". Finally, there is Liu Haichan, the God of Wealth in the Northwest. His mount is a golden toad, which is considered a symbol of wealth, so he is considered among the people as the "Quasi God of Wealth".

The God of Wealth has good character, and of course they will give priority to those with good character. Therefore, we must be honest and trustworthy.
