3. Bi Gan: the God of Wealth in Han folk beliefs;
4. Fan Li: He has always kept a clear head, advanced and retreated freely, and achieved fame and fortune based on self-protection.
Question 5: How many God of Wealth are there in China myths and legends? Please introduce the origin of the god of wealth in detail.
Among all upright God of Wealth, Wu Wen God of Wealth is well known. Wu Caishen usually refers to Zhao Gongming and Guan Yu, while the God of Wealth refers to Bigan and Fan Li. Among them, Wu Caishen and Zhao Gongming are the most common.
The origin of Wu Caishen-The earliest existing written record is the Book of Searching for the Gods by Gan Bao in the Jin Dynasty. In the story, he was originally a ghost general who took life as his god. In the Yuan Dynasty, he appeared as a plague god again, but gradually became a decent god who could eliminate the plague, avenge and make up.
In the Ming Dynasty's popular novel Romance of the Gods, Zhao Gongming was a general of Shang Dynasty, who helped Master Wen to resist the attack of Zhou Jun and was killed by Jiang Ziya with the skill of being disgusted with victory. He was named the God of "Golden Dragon Ruyi is the real King of Dragon, Tiger and Tan Xuan" on the altar, and he was in charge of four gods: Zhao Bao Tianzun Xiao Sheng, Natian Zhenzun Cao Bao, lucky messenger Chen Jiugong and Lishi Xian Guan Yaoshaosi. Among them, Chen Jiugong and Yao Shaosi are Zhao Gongming's apprentices, while Xiao Sheng and Cao Bao are sworn enemies who help Jiang Ziya collect Zhao Gongming treasures. Because his four gods are rich in the meaning of God of Wealth, Zhao Gongming's statue of God of Wealth is deeply rooted in people's hearts.
In folklore, Zhao Gongming did whatever he wanted all his life, using his good magic to beat Jiang Ziya out of the water. But later, the magic was broken and he surrendered before he died. The Emperor of Heaven blinded his eyes out of pity for loyalty and righteousness, and had no big or small financial resources for the people of the world, so he was named "Wu Caishen". Wu Caishen's insistence is to recover the debts of the world, so as to achieve justice. Preside over the wealth and justice of the world. His men, Zhao Baotianzun, Nadianzhenzun, Lucky Messenger and Lishi Xian Guan, although their duties are not directly related to wealth, they must get wealth through them. Therefore, it has become the most important god of wealth among the people. In addition, Zhao Gongming is a deity in the Taoist deity system. When the altar is built, it is necessary to offer sacrifices and ask him to preside over the gold and silver treasures dedicated to the gods.
A little observation of many hotels will reveal that they all worship Guan Gong and regard him as the god of wealth. In fact, Guan Yu is one of the many gods of wealth known for his perseverance. His story can be said to be a household name. Not only has he never touched money, but he has even sealed gold, which is a bit like the anti-wealth tendency of losing his treasure and abandoning his son. Although he is not like the god of wealth in character, Guan Gong's image is deeply loved by the public, especially his loyalty to the liver and bravery in novels and various legends and stories, which is also the requirement of ordinary people for working partners and partners. Therefore, many businessmen regard Guan Gong not only as the god of financial management, but also as the patron saint of monitoring business integrity.
The Origin of the God of Wealth-Of all the God of Wealth, Tao Zhugong Fan Li is probably the one with the most God of Wealth temperament. Fan Li was a famous minister who assisted Gou Jian, the king of Yue, at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period. After successfully destroying the shame of martial arts, he resolutely left Gou Jian, who could not share weal and woe, went into business in the sea under an anonymous name and lived in seclusion in Qi. Because of his proper management and decent business, his wealth accumulated rapidly. But later, in order to escape the fatigue of fame and fortune, he squandered his wealth, and then he went to Guo Tao, where he became Tao Zhugong, and soon he regained far better wealth than before, so he became one of the most famous tycoons in history. With the passage of time and legendary stories, Fan Li was regarded as the god of wealth by later generations. Among the four gods of wealth, Fan Li has the closest relationship with wealth. He was the representative of the rich god of wealth before his death. Proper advance and retreat, indifferent attitude towards fame and wealth, and superb management methods are important factors that make him regarded as the god of wealth.
Compared with Fan Li, Bigen is regarded as the god of wealth because of his loyalty. Bigan was a minister of Shang Dynasty. Being loyal to Zhou Wang, da ji set a trap and lied that a saint has seven delicate hearts. He asked Zhou Wang to cut out his heart. Unexpectedly, the heart really has seven, and Bigan is dead. Or da ji faked illness, pretending that he needed to get the exquisite heart of Bigan's seven strategies as medicine to attract and get rid of the loyal ministers in the DPRK. He was honest before his death and careless after his death, so he won't have prejudice and prejudice, and is suitable for managing and distributing wealth as a god. Obviously, this is the quality that regards fairness and integrity as the ideal god of wealth, and also shows the general public's desire for fair distribution of wealth.
The god of wealth is more common in folk sculptures and woodblock New Year pictures. Most of them are gold-clad jade with crown boots and a white face with a smile, which is suitable for celebrating the Spring Festival and hanging in the hall.
Folk favorites ―― Lishi Xian Guan and Xing Juncai Bo. As mentioned earlier, one minister in Zhao Gongming is Lishi Xian Guan Yaoshaosi, who is far more popular with the people than the third. Many portraits are not limited to Zhao, Guan, Bi and Fan. All these were accompanied by Lishi Xian Guan, and even only Lishi Xian Guan appeared alone. Although he is only the Ministry of God of Wealth, his name is very auspicious and he has won the favor of many people who dream of making a fortune. This is not caused by his own events, but by his professional title.

Question 6: Who is the God of Wealth? The god of wealth is the god in charge of financial resources in Han folklore, which is mainly divided into two categories: one is Taoist seal and the other is Han folk belief. Taoism regards celestial officials as gods, while the folk beliefs of Han nationality are celestial officials and immortals. Taoist conferring is not called the god of wealth, but adding gods to the official position. China Mahayana Buddhism also has the God of Wealth: the Heavenly King, the boy who is good at money in the north. In modern times, in order to cater to everyone's psychological needs, the network god of wealth and the electronic god of wealth have also been introduced. At present, there are seven gods of wealth worshipped by China people, namely: Li Juezu, the magistrate of Quzhou County, Hebei Province in the Northern Dynasties, Duanmu Ci (Zigong: the ancestor of Confucian merchants), Fan Li (Zhejiang merchants), Guan Zhong (Huizhou merchants), (Shanxi merchants), (Guandi Pavilion) and Bigan (the ancestor of literary gods and Jishang merchants).
There are different opinions about who is the god of wealth. Different places and different industries are different. Only the number of columns is as follows.
God of Wealth: Zhao Gongming, King Tan Xuanzhen of Zhong Nanshan, Shaanxi Province, together with four gods of wealth, namely Zhao Baotianzun, Natian Zhenzun, Lishi Xian Guan and Cai Zhao, is also the most widely said.
Bigan: Bigan was a loyal minister of Shang Dynasty in The Romance of Gods, and the Emperor of Heaven pitied his loyalty. Because of carelessness and impartiality, he was named "God of Wealth" and because Bigan was a civil servant, he was also called the God of Wealth.
Zeng Fuzhen Jun: Li Zhaizu, an official of Emperor Xiaowen of the Northern Wei Dynasty, loved the people as a son and often gave money to the poor, which was considered moral by the people. After his death, he was regarded as the god of wealth.
Tianguan: In Taoism, san huang is divided into three parts: praying for blessings, forgiving sins and eliminating disasters. Among them, Tianguan can only pray for blessings, and China people have the saying that "God bless the people".
Land God: Most people in Taiwan Province Province believe that the land god can bring wealth to the people. Hong Kong also has the custom of offering sacrifices to the local god of wealth. Bag monk: According to legend, Maitreya became a bag monk. Monk Bao's smile and Bao are often regarded as symbols of happiness and auspiciousness, and are regarded as the god of wealth. Three immortals of Fu Lushou: also known as Samsung, three famous gods in China: Fuxing, Lu Xing and Shouxing, representing Geely.
Duanmu Ci: He is the "Zi Gong" of Confucius' disciple Confucius Ten Philosophers. He is good at writing, famous for his business and extremely rich.
Fan Li: He was a politician in Yue State. Later, he abandoned his official position and went into business. He was called "Tao Zhugong".
Guan Dijun: It is said that he is good at bookkeeping and can protect business interests. This is common in Taiwan Province Province, Hongkong, Macau and Nanyang.
Two Saints of Harmony: Hanshan and She, also known as "two immortals of harmony", were two eminent monks in the period of Emperor Taizong. According to legend, they are the embodiment of Manjusri Bodhisattva and Samantabhadra Bodhisattva. Their feelings are harmonious, symbolizing harmony and "making money harmoniously". Many New Year pictures are based on this theme.
Zhong Liquan and Lv Chunyang: also known as "Lu Zhong Er Xian". There are some gold miners or businessmen, because it is said that Zhong Liquan and Lv Chunyang can "turn stone into gold" (turn stone into gold), so they regard Erxian as the protector and god of wealth.
Shen Wansan: According to folklore, Shen Wansan, a businessman in Ming Dynasty, became rich because of his "cornucopia". It is said that Shen Shi got a cornucopia, and anything in it can be turned into treasure.
Han Xin: It is said that Han Xin, Duke of Huaiyin in in Han Dynasty, invented many gambling tools for soldiers to play with. Some gamblers will worship it and call it a "partial god of wealth".
Liu Hai: According to folklore, Liu Hai, the founder of Quanzhen Road, can play with the golden toad, which is a sacred object and can spit money to serve people.
Question 7: Who were the four ancient gods of wealth in China, Lv Buwei?
Although Fan Li is regarded as a symbol of the rich and has always been regarded as the ancestor of businessmen by later generations, Fan Li was a general of Gou Jian, the king of Yue, before he went into business. After his retirement, he will have considerable gold and silver as business capital, so his success in business has objective conditions. On the other hand, he started from scratch and became the richest man in Handan, the capital of Zhao State. Comparatively speaking, it is more appropriate to regard Lv Buwei as the originator of businessmen. Lv Buwei, who started from scratch, how to dig the first bucket of gold has not been verified yet, but at the age of unmarried marriage, it is definitely impossible to become the richest man in a country by selling vegetables and selling a few meat buns. Combined with Zhao's history and geographical position at that time, the analysis of the way to make money is very enlightening to contemporary people. It can also be seen that he is a business genius, worthy of the title of the originator of businessmen.
Shen Wansan
Three thousand, three shows in ten thousand households, so it is also called three shows. As another name for the super rich, it was born in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty.
Shen Wansan, the biggest businessman in Jiangnan in Ming Dynasty, lived in a small town in Jiangnan and did all the business in the world. He dared to smuggle salt with the righteous in northern Jiangsu, dared to do maritime trade with the chivalrous at sea, and later became a Suzhou giant occupied by the righteous. However, it is inevitable for Hao Xia to be brave, and Shen Wansan failed to avoid vulgarity. Because of his deep pockets, he wanted to support Zhu Yuanzhang's million-strong army and set himself on fire for no reason. Soon Shen Wansan was exiled by Zhu Yuanzhang and spent the rest of his life in Yunnan.
Shen Wansan has left footprints in Zhouzhuang, Suzhou, Nanjing and Yunnan. Shen Wansan always regards Zhouzhuang as his career; Three thousand households are located in the northwest half mile, that is, Dongzhuangdi, Yinbang, warehouse, garden pavilion and houses are connected, and three thousand households are still in Zhouzhuang. Although he was rewarded by Zhang Shicheng and Zhu Yuanzhang, he didn't want to leave this treasure land. It can be seen that even his own children and grandchildren will stay in this rich land and spend a lot of money on cultivation, so that the Shenyang family can prosper for a long time.
Hu Xueyan
Born in 1823, Jixi, Anhui. He lost his father when he was young, and his family was poor. When he was young, he worked as an apprentice in a bank. Because of his poor background, Hu Xueyan knew from an early age that to do things depends on friends, and to help others is to help himself. In Taiwan Province writer Levin's Biography of Hu Xueyan, Hu Xueyan met a poor scholar Wang Youling at the age of 20. This scholar is very talented and has the opportunity to be an official, but he lacks the money to travel to Beijing to be an official. Although Hu Xueyan was not familiar with him, he immediately privately borrowed five hundred and twenty pieces of silver from the bank and gave it to Wang Youling. In this way, although he lost his job, he paved a bright future for himself. Wang Youling, an official, regarded it as a difference between life and death, and Hu Xueyan, who was in power, also took advantage of Wang Youling's development in officialdom to open banks, pawn shops and pharmacies to operate silk tea and get rich overnight.
There's another way of saying it.
First, the four great gods of wealth
God of Wealth, as the saying goes, God of Wealth, traditional God of Wealth and Wu Caishen, * * * have four.
(1) Guan Gong: As the almighty god of China, the God of Wealth is only one of its functions.
(2) God of Wealth
In the old New Year pictures, the God of Wealth dressed as a civil servant, wearing a gauze hat of the Prime Minister, holding Ruyi in his hand, wearing an embroidered robe and stepping on an ingot. Kind-hearted, smiling.
1, Bigan: Uncle Yin Shang, honest and upright, was disembowelled because of persuasion. The folklore Bigan was later revived by Jiang Ziya with a panacea. Because I have no heart, I have no prejudice, I am fair, I am innocent. Bigan was regarded as the god of wealth because of his loyalty and loyalty.
2. Fan Li: In the Spring and Autumn Period, Yue was an important minister. He helped Gou Jian to avenge the death of Wu and retired after his success. There are many legends among the people. The legend about business is that after Fan Li fled, he crossed the ocean to run agriculture and commerce in Qi State, made three fortunes and distributed them to the poor. Later, he settled in pottery, taking "Tao (figuratively speaking," escape ") Zhu (the color of red robes of senior officials) Gong". He is regarded as an idol because he can make a fortune and is willing to distribute wealth.
(3) Zhao Gongming, Wu Caishen
Zhao Lang, Gong Ming, also known as Zhao Xuantan; Also known as Marshal Zhao Gong or Tan Xuan, Hei Hu, a native of Zhong Nanshan, Shaanxi Province, is a fellow countryman of Zhong Kui.
1. In the search for gods in Jin Dynasty, Zhao Gongming, the "three generals", appeared as a ghost.
2. During the period of Emperor Wendi of Sui Dynasty, it was said that Zhao Gongming and other five disasters came to the world, and Zhao Gongming became one of them.
In Ming Dynasty, Zhao Gongming became one of the eight evil spirits, spreading dysentery to the world, and was later surrendered by Zhang Tianshi. In the novel Romance of Gods, Zhao Gongming became a Taoist practicing in Mount Luofu, Emei. He is skilled in martial arts, riding a Hei Hu and holding a iron whip. He is equipped with treasures such as fixing Haizhu and tying dragon ropes. Later, he went out to help others and was shot ... >>
Question 8: Who is the God of Wealth in fairy tales? God of Wealth is not just a person, but can be divided into two categories: God of Wealth and Wu Caishen. The God of Wealth is Bigen and Fan Li. Bi Gan is Yin's uncle. He is loyal to his country. When he saw that Zhou Wang was in love with Su Daji, the queen of the demon, she was dissolute, lost her state affairs and destroyed Zhongliang, so she remonstrated with Zhou Wang many times, which provoked Zhou Wang's great anger and took out Bigan's heart. Because of his frankness, loyalty and justice, later generations respect him as the god of wealth; Fan Li was the minister of Gou Jian, King of Yue during the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period. He was resourceful and asked Gou Jian, the king of Yue, to "stand still". And sent beautiful women to make Fu Cha, the king of Wu, dissolute and lose power, so that the king of Yue achieved hegemony. When the King of Yue rewarded the meritorious minister, Fan Li retired incognito. He expected the King of Yue to be "in trouble but not rich". Later, when Gou Jian, the King of Yue, became the hero, he killed the hero, which proved Fan Li's foresight. After Fan Li left Yue Wang, he changed his name and surname and went to Qi State to do jewelry business. He made a lot of money and became a millionaire. But he is virtuous, and he has distributed all the money he earned to relatives, friends and the poor. Finally, he settled in pottery to spend his old age. Because he was named "Tao Zhugong", it is commendable that Fan Li can gather wealth and disperse it, so later generations worship him as a god of wealth. Zhao Gongming Wu Caishen is a fictional character in the novel The List of Gods. Zhao Gongming's Luofu Cave in Emei Mountain is not about practicing honestly in the cave, but going down the mountain to help others. Unexpectedly, after the death of the villain, Jiang Ziya named him as the God of "Golden Dragon, Ruyi, Dragon Tiger, Zhen Xuan Jun", and led four "positive gods" to welcome and be blessed. When Jiang Ziya sealed Zhao Gongming, who was called "God of Wealth" by later generations, he already pointed out that his fatal wound was: "I have no choice but to be warm-hearted, just like being entangled in an illusion. When I am in a bad mood, I can't take the right path. " My heart is as hot as a dream, and I can't return to reality if I fall into a bad environment. It was the author who, through Jiang Ziya's words, advised the world not to be delusional when seeking Tao, but to seek good advice from underground. Just like a couplet: there is a lot of money, you ask, and he asks, who to give it to; If I do nothing, I will go to church in the morning and at night. what can I do? This is a blow to those who worship the "God of Wealth" day and night. In addition, it is said that there was a "God of Wealth Temple" in the old days, and the incense was quite prosperous. An unbelieving writer wrote a couplet: strangely, the iron man strolled to our door and became a harmony addict; Don't move San Francisco to China, raise the whip of victory in vain. This couplet uses two allusions. "Harmony addiction" refers to the princes Shaofu and Jiao in the Western Jin Dynasty. Their family is very rich, stingy, searching and loving money like life. He is called "money addiction", and "winning politics" means that Qin Shihuang visited Penglai to watch the sunrise and whipped the stone bridge. Appreciating these two couplets carefully can make people who worship the "God of Wealth" think twice.
Question 9: Who is the God of Wealth and what is Wu Caishen's name? 10 is the god of literature, which is referred to by many people, such as Fan Li and Lu Xing, the fortune stars in Fu Lushou's Samsung. The god of wealth is more common in folk sculptures and woodblock New Year pictures. Most of them are gold-clad jade with crown boots and a white face with a smile, which is suitable for celebrating the Spring Festival and hanging in the hall. The god of wealth was either extremely rich before his death or was appointed to manage the wealth and titles in the world after he ascended to heaven. Most of the gods of wealth did not enter the Taoist system, and few classics were handed down.
Wu Caishen is divided into Zhong Kui and Guan Yu. Zhong Kui with one hand spindle and one hand sword, Guan Di Pavilion's Wu Caishen Guan Yu. Nowadays, the God of Wealth in the Taoist Temple is mostly black-faced and bearded, riding a Hei Hu, holding a silver whip in one hand and an ingot in the other, all in uniform. The statue of God of Wealth should be the statue of God of Wealth, that is, Marshal Zhao Gong. Marshal Zhao Gong, namely Zhao Gongming and Zhao Xuantan.
Caishen decoration
In China's traditional folk concept, the god of wealth is regarded as the god in charge of human wealth; If you get his blessing, you will be rich in money and have a rich house. Therefore, for peace of mind, many people often put the statue of the god of wealth at home, hoping to get a good sign. Others burn incense every morning and evening. But many people have the same question, that is, there are many kinds of wealth gods circulating among the people, which one is suitable for their own display or worship? Although there are many folk God of Wealth, they can be roughly divided into God of Wealth and Wu Caishen.
1, the god of wealth: There are two kinds of god of wealth, which are divided into three stars: Xing Jun and Fu Lushou.
(1) Caibo Xing Jun: He looks very rich. He is an old man with a white face and a long beard. He was wearing a jade belt, holding a gold ingot in his left hand and a scroll with the words "Make a fortune" in his right hand. His face looks like a rich man. According to legend, he is a white star in the sky and belongs to the golden god. His title in the sky is "becoming a wealth star all day", and he is in charge of all the gold and silver wealth in the world. Therefore, many people who seek money respect him very much, and some even offer incense day and night.
(2) Fu Lushou Samsung: "Fuxing" holds a son in hand, symbolizing the blessing of having everything. "Lu Xing" wears a luxurious royal dress and holds jade in his hand, symbolizing promotion and knighthood, and increasing wealth and making a fortune. "Shouxing" holds a peach with a happy and peaceful smile, symbolizing Ankang and longevity. Among the three stars of Fu Lushou, only "Lu Xing" is the god of wealth; But because Samsung is usually a trinity, Fu and Shou are regarded as the god of wealth together. If you put the three stars of Fu, Lu and Shou in the financial position, no matter what the geomantic omen is, you will feel very comfortable visually and psychologically as long as you have these three stars and a room full of auspicious celebrations. As a civilian, as well as an employed worker, this is a desirable place or to worship the god of wealth; As for those business owners and soldiers in Wuzhi, Wu Caishen should be placed or enshrined.
2. Wu Caishen: There are two kinds of Wu Caishen, one is Zhao Gongming with a black face in Darkmouth, and the other is Guan Gong with a red face and a long beard.
(1) Zhao Gongming, also known as Zhao Xuan, was a commander in chief. Zhao Gongming is Wu Caishen. It is said that it can exorcise demons and make money, so many businessmen in the north like to sacrifice it in shops. Most businessmen in the south worship Guan Gong.
(2) Guan Yu: Guan Yu, formerly known as Guan Yu, was a famous soldier in the Three Kingdoms period. Powerful image, he is not only brave and touching, but also can turn money into treasure and protect money from evil. One thing must be noted, the God of Wealth and Wu Caishen are placed in different directions, so we must distinguish them clearly! The god of wealth with a peaceful face, whether it is a rich and prosperous star king or a three-star Fu Lushou, should face the inside of the house, not the outside. Otherwise, you will send money outside the house! As for the majestic Wu Caishen, it should face outward or the gate, so that on the one hand, money can enter the house, and at the same time, it can guard the door to prevent foreign evil from invading.
3. The orientation of the Buddha
China people have always been a polytheistic nation, and their beliefs are free, so all kinds of gods are worshipped. Even in today's rather westernized society of Hong Kong and Singapore, many people still keep the traditional customs, set up holy tables at home and burn incense devoutly every morning and evening.
According to the custom, there are some taboos to touch when placing the sacred table:
(1) The holy table should face the gate: the holy table should face the gate. Look at the Taoist temples all over the world. All the gods face the gate, and you will know that this statement is correct. In the family, except for some idols who have to face the door, others don't have to stick to the rules; For example, "Guandi" and "the landlord's god of wealth" should face the door, and nothing else is needed. "Guandi" is Wu Caishen, with a dragon eyebrow and a phoenix eye, holding a dragon crescent moon blade. It is not only majestic, but also majestic, which makes evil spirits flinch, so most families regard it as the god of the town house. If it is facing the gate, it has the function of guarding the portal. "the landlord's god of wealth", the full name is "the dragon god of five countries and five territories, before and after ... >>
