Have you ever seen the most miserable billionaire?

It wasn’t bankruptcy and jumping off a building—
it was that even his wife and his life became someone else’s spoils of war.

Jiangnan’s richest man, Shen Wansan—
so rich he could rival a whole country.
Gold covered the ground,
pearls were inlaid into cups,
and he married Su Wan, the finest beauty in the entire city.

He once boasted:
Of all the silver in the world, my Shen family takes 70%.
Even the emperor has to give me three-tenths—
He has to defer to me.

When the new xunfu took office,
he only sent a single post,
asking Shen Wansan to donate half of his family fortune to fund the army’s pay.
