Who is the Jiang Ziya fisherman who took the bait?
Jiang Taigong Ziya was ordered by her master to help King Wen. But Jiang Ziya felt that he had been half a century, and he had no friendship with King Wen, so it was difficult to gain the appreciation of King Wen. So on the way back to Beijing, King Wen fished without bait with a straight hook on one side of the river. The hook is curved, but Jiang Ziya caught a lot of fish with a straight hook instead of bait.
King Wen saw it and thought it was a strange person, so he took the initiative to chat with him. When he found that he was really a useful talent, he confessed. Later, Jiang Ziya helped King Wen and his son overthrow the rule of Shang and Zhou Dynasties and established the Zhou Dynasty.
