    Default Was Fok Yau actually wealthier than the Ming Emperor?

    In the first volume of the LUK SIU FUNG novel series , THE GOLDEN ROC KINGDOM'S TREASURE, Fok Yau was said to be wealthiest man in the world. He took the original quarter of the Golden Roc Kingdom's fortune to which he had been entrusted and gradually grew it into a much greater fortune through canny investment. Do you think that Fok Yau actually could have been wealthier than the Ming Emperor at the time?

    likely, since prosperity wasn't really a trait of the ming administration anyway.
