How many gods of wealth are there?
First place, Wu Caishen Zhao Gongming: He is regarded as the real god of wealth. But interestingly, Zhao Gongming was originally the Taoist protector of the mysterious altar, one of the four Taoist marshals, and also one of the generals of the underworld, the five-party plague god. He held several posts, and it was not until the Yuan and Ming Dynasties that he became the God of Wealth again. Since then, the god of wealth has become his main business.
Second, Guan Yu of Wu Caishen: Guan Yu became a warrior of the Three Realms. At this time, Guan Yu was not only loyal, but also able to cure diseases and eliminate disasters, exorcise evil spirits, punish traitors and inspect ghost companies. He can also "manage life, protect businessmen and turn money into treasure", so Guan Yu finally became the god of wealth.
Third place, Wang Hai, the God of Wealth in Zhong Bin: Wang Hai, a businessman, is also the seventh monarch of Shang Dynasty. He started the China trade. Over time, people call businessmen engaged in trade activities "businessmen", goods used for exchange as "commodities" and occupations engaged by businessmen as "commerce". People respectfully call Wang Hai "the ancestor of China merchants" and "the God of Wealth in Zhong Bin".
Fourth, Beagan, God of Wealth: Beagan was Zhou Wang's uncle and was killed by Zhou Wang. Later, Bigan was named Wenquxing, the national god, that is, Lu Xing, one of the three stars of Fu Lushou. There is also a saying that Bigan has no scheming, greed and scheming, so he was named God of Wealth.
Fifth place, the god of wealth Fan Li: Fan Li was originally a politician who helped Gou Jian abdicate and gave up his official position after the restoration of the country. However, because he is good at business and charitable, he is regarded as a living god of wealth and later generations as a god of wealth.
