"Jiang Taigong fishing, willing to be hooked" can be described as a well-known sentence after a break, but how much do you know about "fishing" Jiang Taigong? Jiang Taigong, said that Jiang Ziya, a Lü people. Seeing this, some people may be curious, Jiang Taigong Jiang Ziya, both surnamed Jiang, and what is the name of Lü? Jiang Ziya's ancestors were once rewarded and awarded in Lüdi for helping Xia Yu and the two great figures to jointly manage water and soil, so Jiang Ziya was also known as Lü Shang. And Lu Shang is the real name of Jiang Ziya, Jiang Taigong and Jiang Ziya are just other names. It is said that Jiang Ziya uses soldiers like gods, known as the originator of the bing family, did he really live to be 139 years old? Is it really as strong as the speech says?
Jiang Ziya is a model of late success, unlike the young and promising or famous today advocated early, Jiang Ziya's career was officially started when he was 72 years old. Prior to this, Jiang Ziya had worked as a butcher and sold wine for his livelihood. It is worth mentioning that no matter what kind of work Jiang Ziya is engaged in, he has always adhered to the belief of displaying his talents for the country, and has never given up learning, which has also laid a solid foundation for his later success.
Jiang Ziya not only assisted Ji Chang in establishing hegemony, but also assisted King Wu in eliminating Shang And establishing the Zhou Dynasty, which is enough to see that Jiang Ziya's wisdom should not be underestimated. "Jiang Taigong fishing wishers take the bait" refers to the scene where Jiang Ziya meets Ji Chang, which tells the story of Jiang Ziya meeting Ji Chang while fishing by the river, and then being appreciated by Ji Chang, thus jointly establishing a hegemonic business. In fact, there are many theories about Jiang Ziya meeting Ji Chang. It is also said that ji chang's courtiers San yisheng and Hong Yao heard about Jiang Ziya's fame and invited him, and then the three of them together looked for beautiful women and precious treasures to be sacrificed to the king of Lu, thus redeeming Ji Chang.
Although the legends about Jiang Ziya's return to Zhou are different, there is no objection to the fact that he is Ji Chang and Ji Fa's teacher. Since everyone thinks that he can be a teacher, I think his wisdom is also recognized by everyone. In addition, Jiang Ziya's wisdom is also reflected in literature. Jiang Ziya's "Liutao" provides many methods of military use, including theoretical knowledge and scientific and technological methods, which are all borrowed today. He assisted Zhou Gongdan in opening up territory and expanding the scope of territory, and the use of soldiers was also very powerful, and was called the originator of the bing family by later generations, and later Emperor Xiaozong of Tang posthumously named him king of Wucheng and set up a special martial temple to pay tribute to him. Jiang Ziya's erudition and knowledge are obvious to all the world, so in this work of the List of Conferred Gods, although Jiang Ziya himself has not been named a god, nor has he appeared on the list of conferred gods, he holds the power of the gods, similar to the position of the general manager, which also benefits from the appreciation of Jiang Ziya by Yuan Shi Tianzun.
Some people say that Jiang Ziya was born in 1156 BC and died in 1017 BC at the age of 139, which is a well-deserved longevity old man. I believe that many people are surprised when they see this information, some people do not believe that he can live so long, but after checking the data, it is found that although some people will question the age of Jiang Ziya, all the information about Jiang Ziya shows that he lived for 139 years, in the case of a shorter average life expectancy in ancient times, if Jiang Ziya really lived to 139 years old, it is very rare.
