Traditionally, there are four God of Wealth, God of Wealth and Wu Caishen.

(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.

Both Beagan and Fan Li are worshipped as the god of wealth.

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, holding a iron whip, and equipped with treasures such as fixing Haizhu and binding dragons. Later, he went out to help others and was shot. Later, Jiang Ziya was named as the God of "Golden Dragon Ruyi is the real Dragon and Tiger King Tan Xuan" (that is, "God of Wealth"), which governed Zhao Baonazhen and other four gods, and the God of Wealth began to take shape.

4. The Three Religions in Search of Gods records that during the Qin Dynasty, Zhao Gongming lived in seclusion in the deep mountains and had a successful practice. He was named as the assistant commander of Shen Xiao by the Jade Emperor. Later, Zhang Tianshi entered He Mingshan, wearing an iron crown and holding iron whip. Riding Hei Hu (later generations take this as a typical image), guarding Tan Xuan and protecting Dan's room, he was named Marshal Tan Xuan of Justice. Because it can "drive thunder and serve electricity" and "buy and sell for money", the public can make it profitable and live in harmony. However, if there is something fair, you can pray to God that nothing will go wrong. "The function of wealth management is deeply rooted in people's hearts, and the true colors of evil spirits gradually fade away. The noble God of Wealth was born!

Second, the five-way god of wealth

The fifth day of the first month is the birthday of the god of wealth. Businessmen and people who are eager for money burn incense and candles, beat gongs and drums before dawn, and meet the god of wealth in the fifth watch, commonly known as "rushing." This custom of offering sacrifices to God first is induced by the mentality of seeking profit and wealth, which is vividly expressed in A Qing and Cai Yun's "Zhi Zhu Ci":

Five days of financial resources for five days, one year's wish and one reward;

Beware of meeting God early elsewhere, and grabbing the road head overnight.

The god of wealth is at the head of the road, also known as "the god of wealth is at the head of the road" and "the god of wealth is at the head of the road". As a member of the God of Wealth Sect in China, there have been different opinions about the origin of his identity. There are roughly five kinds of handed down sayings of "the five gods of wealth":

1 refers to Marshal Zhao Gong and his subordinates Zhao Baotianzun Xiao Sheng, Nazhen Tianzun Cao Bao, lucky messenger Chen Jiugong and Lishi Xian Guan Yao Shaosi. Also known as "God of Wealth Five".

2. It refers to the Wu brothers who live in Cennan. They were outlaws who robbed the rich and helped the poor, and were later arrested and killed. Sticking to ghosts after death can make the poor rich and the rich poor. Also known as "the spirit should be the god of wealth".

3. The name of "Five-way God of Wealth" is He, and the name is Wu Lu. The Records of Wuxi County records that he was an anti-Japanese hero at the end of Yuan Dynasty, killed by the enemy and regarded as a god by the people.

It refers to "Five Gods", also known as "Five Gods". He is a demon who runs wild in the countryside. His wife and daughter are prostitutes. Because she specializes in adultery, she is also called "Five Gods". The origin is complex, referring to the Liuzhou ghost in Tang Dynasty. When Zhu Yuanzhang said that he paid homage to the war dead, five people were one; One said that it harassed Jiangnan in the late Yuan Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty, and burned and killed adulterous Japanese pirates. In short, the five gods are a group of evil wild ghosts. People worship it in order to avoid disasters and be blessed, so as to make money and treasure. Therefore, it was sacrificed as a god of wealth.

5, refers to the "road god" (also known as "distracted"). In the pre-Qin period, it entered the sacrificial ceremony, and later it was said that there were gods everywhere in the southeast, northwest and China.

6. It refers to the five common gods closely related to people's livelihood security, namely, the land god, the horse (ox) king god, the nun, the god of wealth and the kitchen god.

All the above statements have a background. The image of Marshal Zhao is widely circulated among the people, and the five gods are widely worshipped in the form of idols in temples in the south of the Yangtze River. The connotation of the road god is varied, and its source is the oldest.

Third, the little god of wealth

Wenhe is worshipped by people and should be equipped with this little god of wealth.

Lishi Xian Guan's name is Yao Shaosi, and he was described as Zhao Gongming's apprentice in The Condor Heroes, and Jiang Ziya named him Lishi Xian Guan.

In common sayings, "benefiting the market" means "lucky" and "auspicious", and also refers to the profits earned from doing business. As the old saying goes, "three times the profit of the city", three times is profiteering! The connotation of Lishi Xian Guan caters to businessmen's preference for pursuing good luck and getting rich. On the occasion of the new year, the old businessman posted it widely for good luck. The little god of wealth is worth twice as much.

During the Song and Yuan Dynasties, Lishi Xian Guan became popular. The Biography of Yu Yu in the Yuan Dynasty said: "One more temple in the rivers and lakes is beneficial to the city's old female officials." It can be said that it is the source of "wealth grandma" in later generations!
