"如果说在我们的文化传统里有哪位神仙是从古至今都被万众一心真心爱戴的，那么非财神莫属。所以过年吉祥话里排名第一的，一定是那句"恭喜发财"——对财富的美好向往已经写进了我们民族的基因，基于这种朴素而健康的民族情感，先民们积极乐观地塑造了一个司财运的神仙，财神。财神主财运，掌富贵，是民间普遍供奉的善神，历来备受推崇和敬拜。 有关财神的起源，颇为繁杂，众说纷纭，因为财神不止一位，而是一个群体，每一位的来历各不相同。在众多的财神中，最受欢迎、香火最旺的当属范蠡、比干、关羽、赵公明。天下财神庙中供奉的多是这四位，因而最出名，影响力最广。 本书以小传的形式，为读者厘清财神原型人物的生平以及财神文化的源流，从历史视角去解读我们津津乐道的传统文化主题，引领读者从我们民族优秀的传统文化中去汲取更多的吉祥、乐观、奋斗不息的精神源泉。"

"If there is a deity in our cultural tradition who has been sincerely loved by all from ancient times to the present, it must be the God of Wealth. Therefore, the most prominent auspicious phrase during the New Year is undoubtedly 'Wishing you prosperity'—the beautiful yearning for wealth has been woven into the fabric of our national identity. Based on this simple and healthy national sentiment, our ancestors optimistically shaped a deity responsible for wealth, the God of Wealth. This deity governs fortune and riches and is widely revered and worshipped as a benevolent figure.

The origins of the God of Wealth are quite complex and vary greatly, as there is not just one but a group of deities, each with different backgrounds. Among the many Gods of Wealth, the most popular and widely worshipped are Fan Li, Bi Gan, Guan Yu, and Zhao Gongming. Most temples dedicated to the God of Wealth enshrine these four figures, which is why they are the most famous and influential.

This book presents the lives of the prototype figures of the God of Wealth in biographical form, clarifying the origins of the God of Wealth culture. It interprets this beloved traditional cultural theme from a historical perspective, guiding readers to draw more auspicious, optimistic, and persevering spiritual inspiration from our nation's rich cultural heritage."
