Folklore says that the birthday of the god of wealth is the fifth day of the first lunar month, so "breaking the fifth" has become an auspicious day for the folk to welcome the god of wealth, especially the merchants, which are very important. According to traditional customs, people should put up statues of the god of wealth on that day, set off firecrackers, and worship the god of wealth.

The belief in fortuna is based on moral devotion and strict moral restraint. There are many gods of wealth that people worship, and they have their own moral characteristics, which provide profound moral reference and enlightenment for believers from different aspects while seeking wealth and getting rich. For example, Guan Shengdijun represents "integrity", Fan Li represents "wisdom", and Bigan and Zhao Gongming represent "justice".
