There is a real person in history.

Jiang Shang, born at the end of Shang Dynasty and the beginning of Zhou Dynasty (birth and death are unknown), was born in Ziya, surnamed Jiang and Lushi. He is famous for Jiang Taigong, and the title of King Wu Zun is "Teacher is Father". According to the Records of Sui Shu Classics, "Zhou Wenwang studied under Wang Jiang", also known as Wang Jiang, was honored as "King Tai Gong" and was a Han nationality (Huaxia nationality). On the occasion of Yu Xia, Boyi, the descendant of Emperor Yan, was in charge of the four mountains and helped Dayu to control the water. He was sealed in Lu, and his descendants took his surname. Lu Shang is a descendant of Boyi, and Jiang Wei is the surname of Shang. When Jiang Ziya was born, his family had already declined, so when Jiang Ziya was young, he worked as a butcher who slaughtered cattle and sold meat, and also opened a hotel to sell wine. However, Jiang Ziya people are not lacking in ambition. Whether slaughtering cattle or doing business, they are always diligent in studying astronomy, geography and military strategies, and studying the way of governing the country and keeping the country safe, hoping to display their talents for the country one day. Although he is knowledgeable and talented, he has no talent in Shang Dynasty. He is over 60 years old and white-haired, still looking for opportunities to display his talents and ambitions. Later, I met him and helped Zhou destroy the business and made great contributions. The poet Chen Zhisui's poem "Jiangya" said: "Why not kill the military power?" White hair senses meeting, and strong heart turns to the beginning. Xibo looks at princes and ministers better than water fish. The world attaches importance to political achievements and seeks the health of the people. If the Tao is cut, it will be lost, but it will be a sigh. "("Jiangnan Shi Jing Poems ")
