They all have great influence among Confucian legalists, and they are also called a hundred schools. Jiang Ziya fully assisted Zhou Wuwang in his crusade against Shang and Zhou Dynasties. The Battle of Makino, the defeat of Shang and Zhou Dynasties and Zhou Wang's suicide opened the era of Zhou Dynasty.
When Jiang Ziya was born, his family was very poor, so in order to make a living, Jiang Ziya worked as a butcher who killed meat and opened a small shop selling wine. However, Jiang Ziya likes reading, painstakingly studies astronomy and geography, and sells meat and wine without forgetting to study the way of governing the country. He longed to serve his country one day, show his talents and ambitions, but he stayed at home until he was over 70 years old.
At the age of 72, Jiang Ziya met Hou Jichang, a Xibe nationality, that is, Zhou Wenwang. As a Bole, Zhou Wenwang discovered Maxima Jiang Taigong, regarded him as a master, and started his career. For people of this age, Jiang Taigong is really a late bloomer.
Jiang Taigong has long advocated respecting the virtuous and valuing the virtuous politically, and selecting talented people to be officials. Therefore, he absorbed a group of talents from Dongyi indigenous people and played a great role in the construction of the Zhou Dynasty, so that he could get ahead. It breaks the system of selecting people by blood and gives full play to the creativity of talents. Facts have proved that his thought of employing people created a precedent of appointing people on their merits and laid the foundation for Qi's hegemony.
Does Jiang Ziya really exist?
Is there Jiang Ziya in history? Of course there is. Jiang Ziya is a famous Taoist figure in the history of China. He was born into a noble family. His ancestors had fiefs and gave him the surname Lu, so Jiang Ziya was also called Lu Shang. Jiang Ziya was born in Shandong Province. He has been different from others since he was a child. He is extremely clever and can predict the great events that will happen.
He was the founding general of the Western Zhou Dynasty and made great contributions to the establishment of the Western Zhou Dynasty. He is a talented person who integrates military strategy, military affairs and politics. At the same time, there are hundreds, known as the master of hundreds.
He is poor, his life is miserable, and his business is almost ruined. It can be seen that he has no brains in business. After all, people's expertise is not in the business field. The ancients despised businessmen and believed in official career. But because of the war in Jiang Ziya, it was too difficult to take the normal way at that time. In order to avoid the war, he hid in the mountains to practice Taoism. He didn't go to a friend's house until he was in his seventies, and he got married with Ma Shi, an old girl from a neighboring village, under the introduction of others. But his life was so poor that his wife often laughed at him and later left him. Later, Jiang Ziya became a small official under Shang Zhouwang, but Zhou Wang was dissolute, building and enslaved the people. He predicted that Shang Zhouwang would fail and the Shang Dynasty would perish. I can't bear to see people come out of the mire. You come with me to Xiqiao. But his wife didn't agree. She thinks he is incompetent, can't be a small official and doesn't want to go with him. Jiang Ziya had to go to Xiqiao alone.
Later, after Jiang Ziya arrived in Xiqiao, he settled by the Wei River. But later, he caught a fish, found a military book in the fish's stomach, met Zhou Wenwang and started his political career.
Who is blessed in Jiang Ziya?
Why did Yuan Zun choose Jiang Ziya to do such an important thing? Jiang Ziya's martial arts is poor, and he has no skill. How did he become a leader and how did he make his county magistrate obey? First of all, we must know that this deity is the same as the official position in the world, and each has its own responsibilities. In Taoist view, the world has its own order, which must be observed, otherwise it will be chaotic.
Jiang Ziya, Shen and da ji, in fact, are old and innovative chess pieces in the world. Shen is a villain, Jiang Ziya is orthodox, and da ji is a spy. Jiang Ziya is the most incompetent, but he has such an important responsibility, which makes Shen unbalanced, so he called all the people to crusade against Jiang Ziya.
Jiang Ziya can be a deity because he has the worst ability. In a team, a competent leader doesn't need too many skills. He just needs to make good use of his servant's advantages, thunder and lightning, and find Raytheon Dian Mu. He doesn't have to play by himself. Zhuge Liang doesn't have much martial arts, but his five tigers will. The most important thing for a leader is to be able to lead a good team, not whether he has the ability, but whether he has the ability to become a burden, especially for those with great ability. As a leader, Jiang Ziya's life was dull and his temper was smoothed away. He won't be adventurous. More importantly, Jiang Ziya will cherish life and the practice of others for thousands of years, so he will not abuse his power. Unlike narrow-minded Shen, it would be a disaster for anyone to offend such a leader. Since the beginning, the Buddha took a fancy to Jiang Ziya's heart and acted according to the standard, fearing that the gods could not stop him? It doesn't matter. Yuan Shen gave him a whip. As long as the immortals on the roster, they will be punished by him.
