On the day of his extravagant wedding, Zhu Wencong once again hosted a feast for the entire city, epitomizing sheer wastefulness and extravagance.
To manage the enthronement and the grand wedding events, chefs, opera troupes, and merchants from all over the nation were drawn here.
By simply arriving in the Fujian region, Fuzhou, one could benefit from the generous offerings provided by Zhu Wencong, and even if not receiving silver from locals, one could still collect other resources.
Foreign newspapers covered the entire event because, according to incomplete statistics, Zhu Wencong had spent nearly several million US Dollars for these two ceremonies.
This lavish behavior was even more severe compared to emperors of the East who squandered their dynasties' wealth, but it also indirectly highlighted Jiuding's terrifying financial reserves.
