You said it's not correct, OK, suppose I accepted it. Now, can you speak about your reason? Which part is incorrect?

his much is not a correct combination in English. For example, we don't say "his much money"; we say "much of his money".

To be honest, it's not natural (at least) to my ear too. But apparently it is used commonly.
