Caishen

'God of Wealth') is the mythological figure worshipped in the Chinese folk religion and Taoism.

[1] It is unclear whether they are genuine historical figures, though most of the stories agree that Caishen's most popular incarnation lived during the early Qin dynasty.

Li Guizu (李詭祖) was born in the Zichuan District in Shandong Province and held position as a country magistrate.

The late Li Guizu was then conferred the title Caibo Xingjun by the Wude Emperor of Tang dynasty.

Though Caishen is a Chinese folk deity, many Pure Land Buddhists venerate him as a buddha.
