The story of the first treacherous court official in the world, the God of Wealth?
Beagan was Shang Zhouwang's uncle. Frank was honest and frank. He was killed for speaking out about Zhou Wang's fault, became a god after his death, and was later regarded as a god of wealth by the people.

Unintentional god of wealth

Bigan was a famous civil servant in the pre-Qin period. He is one of the three loyal ministers of Yin and North Korea. These three loyal ministers are Cabbage and Bi Gan, who is also Yin's uncle. According to records, Zhou Wang was dissolute and tyrannical.

"I went without listening to the advice in the book." Ji Zi's fear is that he pretends to be a slave. When Bi Gan saw that his son had left, Ji Zi was angry and sighed, "It's not a loyal minister's move for you to make a mistake without remonstrating. Is it brave to be afraid to speak for fear of death? If you do something, you will be remonstrated. If you don't use it for you, you will die. This is the most loyal behavior. " So he hurried for three days in a row.

Zhou Wang asked, "What makes you insist on doing this?"

Bigan said: "Doing good is benevolence, and self-sustaining by righteousness."

Zhou Wang was furious: "I once heard that saints have seven minds. Is it true? "

So he killed Beagan and looked into his heart.

There is also a legend among modern people. Zhou Wang killed Bigan, because da ji wanted to eat the heart of a man with the four-line skill.

"Lu Chunqiu" said: "Zhou Wang killed Bigan and looked at his heart. His heart has seven holes. Confucius listened: steal it, don't die! " In the Romance of the Gods, Bigan was named as one of the Big Dipper and later became the God of Wealth. After Bigan's death, Jiang Ziya saw that he was heartless-neither conscience nor greed-and acted fairly, so he was named the God of Wealth.

When Bigan first became the God of Wealth, because he had no heart, no right and wrong, and was fair and equal to others, all business people were fair, and no one cheated, just in contrast to the "doing nothing, not being treacherous" of later generations.

Gender equality depends on justice.

Careless God of Wealth is a model God of Wealth in China's folk ideal.

The people of China once found Bigan in recorded history, so they gave it the title of God of Wealth. They pinned their hopes for equality and justice in the world on Beagan. However, the unfair distribution of the rich and the poor in the world, even unintentionally, is difficult to change, so people fabricated a story that is also black than dry as a helpless explanation. According to folklore, the good times don't last long. Once, Hei Hu, who was installed in Zhao Gongming, used his black claws to pry open Bigan's stomach to find his heart, and dyed Bigan's stomach black. Therefore, even if Bigen has no heart, he is no longer "selfless" and more or less distributes wealth to people all over the world. Since then, people have been divided into rich and poor.

Although Bigen is not the richest man in the world, his careless attitude caters to China people's ideal of equal distribution of social wealth, so it is very logical for Bigen to become a god of wealth.
