Who is the God of Wealth?

1, Zhao Gongming, Guan Yu and the five-way god of wealth (Wu Caishen)

Usually, the God of Wealth refers to Zhao Gongming: the God of Wealth holds a whip and rides a Hei Hu, and is named "the true king of the Dragon and Tiger Altars" in front of the altar; He was sealed at the same time with Zhao Bao Tianzun, Na Zun Caobao, Yao Shaosi's lucky messenger and Chen Jiugong, and was commonly known as the "Five-way God of Wealth" among the people.

Guan Gong, the God of Wealth: Guan Yu is a multifunctional god in traditional cultural worship. It is said that the old pawnbroker worships "Three Treasures" (Marshal Zhao Gong, Guan Yu and the God of Wealth). In the past, Guan Yu and Zhao Gongming were both called Wu Caishen.

Now he has gradually replaced Zhao Gongming as the number one God of Wealth, especially in Hong Kong and Taiwan, where Guan Yu is the main God of Wealth. This is probably Guan Yu's "loyalty", which makes it easier to make money and treasure.

2, the god of wealth than dry and Fan Li said (god of wealth)

Bi Gan, an ordinary brother of Yin, was loyal and died of offending. Shen Feng gave a more vivid description of this. No one can tell when Bigan was named the god of wealth worshipped by people. But nowadays, during the Spring Festival, statues of the God of Wealth are usually posted, wearing gauze hats with Tianyi, scarlet robes, long beards and kind faces. Legends are better than facts.

Fan Li, the minister of the State of Yue at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period, left Gou Jian after helping him destroy Wu. Sail to Shandong Qi to do business. He changed his alias to Tao Zhugong, made a fortune and became a famous monopoly at that time.

I didn't know that Fan Li was the god of wealth in Hedian. For example, in folklore, Bigan said that "when he came to the people, he spread wealth widely, and his full name was" the heavens became rich, and wealth became a star ",which was the Taibai Venus, commonly known as Li Changgeng. The busybodies thought that he had the word "gold", that is, he was regarded as the "golden god", from which it was deduced that he was the god of wealth and respected as the king of star wealth, and took July 22 of the lunar calendar as their birthday.

3. In addition, the old gentleman in Taishang is regarded as the god of wealth: the gold and silver exchange shop regards the old gentleman as the ancestor according to the New Year idol, because gold and silver are related to casting fire, and the old gentleman in Taishang owns the gossip stove. All these can be seen from the characteristics of the industry that the God of Wealth worshipped in the industry has a common belief in gods (such as Zhao Gongming and Guan Yu) and uniqueness.
