Chapter 857: Wang Hai, the first ancestor of the merchants!
Chapter 857: Wang Hai, the founder of merchants!
In the Zhuxia dynasty, there was a god of wealth who was in charge of financial resources and commerce—Shang Gaozu Wang Hai.
According to legend, Wang Hai, the God of Wealth, had two destiny artifacts that shocked the past and the present - the cornucopia and the money tree!
The sacred basin gathers all the rare treasures from all over the world. When the sacred tree shakes, money falls, making it a frequent visitor to the dreams of countless mortals. It is famous for being a frequent visitor to the Qi Refiner's dream!
At this moment, Yao Yun was a little curious. If he established the sovereign credit of the Xi Kingdom and issued credit currency, which artifact of destiny would be rewarded by the Yellowstone Heavenly Book?
Could it be that the Huangshi Book of Heaven could "steal" the cornucopia of artifacts and money trees?
Or is it like the god-killing flying knife, Yao Yun personally conceived and cultivated a magical weapon?
If paper money is issued, wouldn't it be...
Yao Yun couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
"Your Majesty, what's wrong with you?"
While Yao Yun was lost in thought, Wu Tong, the second elder on the side, stopped talking and looked at Yao Yun doubtfully.
Yao Yunru woke up from his dream and saw the kind little face of Second Elder Wu Tong, and immediately asked: "Second Elder, how much do you know about the God of Wealth?"
"Your Majesty, why do you suddenly ask about Shang Gaozu?" The second elder Wu Tong couldn't keep up with Yao Yun's jumping thinking, but he didn't think too much and told the origin of the God of Wealth Wang Hai.
Wang Hai is the sixth grandson of Qi and the eldest son of Ming. He was the king of the ancient Shang Kingdom. He once had great achievements in controlling water. Later, he tamed cattle and horses, built ox carts, transported goods to various places for sale, and created the first trade among the Xia Dynasty.
Trade prospered the country, and under the leadership of King Hai, the Shang Kingdom quickly became stronger and became one of the most powerful princes in the Xia Dynasty that year.
The rise of the Shang State shocked the Xia dynasties. Those tribes in the primitive era saw whether commercial trade could make them rich and prosper the country, so they followed suit one after another.
The profession of "businessman" was born from this, and Wang Hai became the "ancestor of business" and received the destiny of the God of Wealth. Not only did the Shang Dynasty prosper in his hands, but he himself also rose to great heights, and was only one step away from overcoming the catastrophe and becoming a god.
As long as he takes one step forward, he has a very high chance of becoming the prince of the heavens and the earth by controlling the financial resources of heaven and earth. Not only is he expected to ascend to heaven, he will also be one of the high-ranking gods in heaven.
It can be said that the future is promising.
However, there are unforeseen circumstances.
The God of Wealth, Wang Hai, who was destined to do everything he could, capsized in the gutter.
Once, Wang Hai personally brought a large number of rare treasures, cattle and sheep goods to trade. He passed by the country of Yi. Unexpectedly, the wealth moved people's hearts. The country of Yi got carried away with greed and joined forces to kill Wang Hai and swallow up the treasures.
Countless goods were shipped.
A genius with outstanding potential, who was expected to become a hero in the heavens one day, fell into the sand, capsized in the gutter, and unfortunately died.
After Wang Hai's death, although the source of wealth in heaven and earth preserved his soul and allowed him to ascend to heaven in one step, and was conferred the title of God of Wealth by the Emperor of Heaven, the foundation of his great path was destroyed.
Wang Hai could have become a powerful god in heaven, but now, he can only be regarded as a small god. The source of wealth he controls is not strong. The power of the God of Wealth has fallen by the wayside, and his status is not strong. Gods may compete with him for the power of the God of Wealth at any time.
Hearing what Second Elder Wu Tong said, Yao Yun benefited a lot, and the doubts in his mind were solved. It turned out to be like this~ No wonder there is such a task in the Yellowstone Book of Heaven.
It turns out that the status of this God of Wealth is unstable, and there is a chance to replace or equal him!
"I didn't expect that those who were destined to die would also die unfortunately."
When he was relieved, Yao Yun couldn't help but feel humble. He had been going smoothly before, thinking that he was destined to be the darling of heaven and earth, and his heart was inevitably a little light. However, with the negative example of Wang Hai, the God of Wealth, he had no bloat at all.
thoughts.
"Hi~ Your Majesty, don't listen to what the second Wu said. Wang Hai, the God of Wealth, did not die unfortunately, but brought it on himself." The bald dragon spat and said with disdain.
"Oh~ What do you say?" Yao Yun is very interested in ancient rumors, especially stories about gods. There is a saying that other people's tragedies are some people's comedies. This idea is very bad, but it is the majority of people.
A true inner portrait of a person.
The bald dragon chuckled: "Back then, people in the Yi Kingdom were so greedy that they killed people and bought goods. At that time, the Shang Kingdom was one of the top vassal states in the Celestial Dynasty. It was much more powerful than the Yi Kingdom. How could it be possible to kill the Shang Kingdom's King Hai for treasures and goods?
!”
"Hmm~ It makes sense. Is there any hidden secret in this?" Yao Yun also showed suspicion when he heard this. If the Shang State was stronger than the Yi State, even the Yi State would not dare to kill the God of Wealth Wang Hai.
"That's natural, Your Majesty, you didn't grow up in the imperial capital, so you don't know what's going on..." As he said that, the bald dragon suddenly put on a slutty smile: "This Wang Hai has become a prostitute and has Yi Guojun's wife, so let him
King Yi was so furious that he killed Wang Hai at all costs...
It is said that Wang Hai's servants escaped from Youyi State and established a country in the wilderness, called Yao Republic. Later, someone learned that the matter was revealed;
Wang Hai's son went to Jiawei, and when the new king of Shang State learned about this, he led a large army to retaliate and directly destroyed the Youyi State. Even the Youyi people were almost slaughtered. Look, there is such a huge gap in strength between the two countries.
Without the unbearable hatred, how could Lord Yi dare to touch Wang Hai!"
The bald dragon has a wealth of treasures and is eloquent, and he is not just talking nonsense, but is well-founded and convincing.
"Second Elder, is what the Bald Dragon said true?" Yao Yun obviously believed the Bald Dragon's statement more.
At first, he sympathized with Wang Hai, the God of Wealth, whose "genius fell", but after hearing what the bald dragon said, he began to sympathize with King Yi. His wife was insulted, and even the country and his people suffered catastrophe.
The second elder Wu Tong smiled and did not explain: "Your Majesty, it has been so long that no one can explain it clearly. However, the imperial capital and the middle-earth aristocratic circles do have this saying, but no one has announced it to their mouths."
The Bald Dragon said disdainfully: "That's just because the Shang State has always been very powerful. The kings of the past dynasties either ascended to the position of emperor or were the most prominent vassals in the celestial dynasty. Even today, the Shang State will be among the top five vassal states in the celestial dynasty.
, who dares to talk nonsense in front of you?"
At this moment, the second elder Wu Tong nodded, but did not object. Obviously, he believed in the latter more.
There is no justice for the weak.
Yao Yun was convinced, but he was not interested in interfering in Wang Hai's personal affairs. At the moment, he was more concerned about the destiny of the God of Wealth.
Obviously, the God of Wealth Wang Hai's "untimely death" cut off the foundation of the great road, resulting in instability of the god's position and the lack of authority of the God of Wealth. This is an indisputable fact.
Therefore, the inheritance of the God of Wealth's destiny contained in the Huangshi Heavenly Book is not groundless, but there is a complete opportunity to plan and seize it.
As long as you plan well, it is inevitable that there will be another God of Wealth in the world.
Now, Yao Yun's first step is to establish his credit, and make a big move that is more sensational than "buying horse bones for a thousand gold" or "laying a tree on the gate"!
