To this end, some citizens believe that if the man wants to buy a house, he has to save his wife's book, and the woman demands such a high dowry that people can't afford it. However, some Fuzhou citizens believe that marrying a woman is not selling her daughter, and the bride price is only a test of the man's economic strength. At the same time, many enlightened parents turned all the bride price into their daughters' dowry, which provided some financial security for their daughters and sons-in-law's marriage.
A gold medal wedding bride in Fuzhou who has been engaged in the wedding industry for many years said that she is in her forties this year. She got married around 1990, when the general dowry was around 1300 yuan. But at present, only in Fuzhou, the minimum bride price demanded by the woman is "10.3 million yuan". In five districts and eight counties, Fuqing, Changle and other places with high economic level, the bride price is more than 200 thousand yuan; Many other counties and districts are also above 80,000 yuan.
