Daming Town Haiwang

Chapter 203, I will never forget it for the rest of my life

"How much silver is this?"

Someone looked at the big boxes that were still being lifted down one after another, and couldn't help muttering to himself.

"I'm afraid there are hundreds of thousands of taels of silver."

Someone thought for a while and said.

"Hundreds of thousands of taels. I have never seen silver in my life. I didn't expect to see hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. I can brag about it for the rest of my life."

Someone followed suit.

"Isn't it? It's really enough to blow for a lifetime."

"I heard that they came back from North Korea. Where is North Korea? How can there be so much money?"

"I don't know, but I guess these crew members have all sent out. I heard that the sailors who go to sea can get a layer of income from going to sea. With the hundreds of thousands of taels of silver, isn't everyone able to get a few hundred thousand taels of silver?" One hundred taels of silver."

"A few hundred taels of silver?"

"How is it possible that you can earn hundreds of taels of silver just by going out to sea, and everyone is still overwhelmed?"

"Isn't it? Didn't you see that when Tianjin Maritime Academy recruits students, tens of thousands of people sign up every time?"

"As long as you enter this Maritime Academy, you will be issued in the future. I heard that they will go to the Golden Island in the future. What they will bring back will be boxes of gold."

"Crates of gold?"

"I'm also going to take the Tianjin or Academy."

"..."

Here in Tianjin Port, seeing the boxes of silver piled up on the pier, everyone’s eyes were red. Some people were envious and jealous, and some clenched their fists and secretly vowed to study at the Maritime Academy.

Everyone was deeply shocked by the boxes of silver in front of them, including Li Dongyang, Zhou Jing and Zhang Mao, the three important ministers of the country.

They are also well-informed and have seen big scenes, but at this time they also widened their eyes, looking at the boxes of silver on the pier. It was the first time for them to see such a large amount of silver. See.

Even Zhou Jing, the Minister of the Household Department, is in charge of the Ming treasury, but the Ming court is poor, and the annual tax silver is less than three million taels of silver. Basically, once the silver is transported to the treasury, it will be spent quickly. If you go out, the rats in the treasury will starve to death, and it is impossible to see the neatly arranged boxes of silver in front of you.

"How much silver is this?"

Zhang Mao opened his mouth wide, and immediately felt that he was really poor, very poor. He is a good prince, and his family property is quite rich, but most of his property is land, shops, etc. In fact, there is not much silver in his hands.

Looking at the boxes of silver in front of him, his eyes were red. It was just a trip to North Korea, and they brought back so much silver.

"At least a million taels~"

Zhou Jing was also shocked by the silver in front of him. He was used to being poor. When he saw boxes of silver, he wished he could immediately move the silver into the treasury.

"This trip to North Korea brought back a total of three million taels of silver and five million catties of rice!"

Du Mingen looked at Zhou Jing. He didn't know Zhou Jing, so he didn't feel restrained. He smiled and stretched out his right hand while talking and gesticulating.

"Three million taels of silver!"

When Zhou Jing heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded again. He widened his eyes and looked carefully at the boxes of silver in front of him again, with an expression of disbelief.

Although under his estimation, he also estimated more than one million taels of silver, but he did not expect that there were three million taels of silver.

"Three million taels of silver, my yearly tax silver is not even three million taels."

Zhou Jing couldn't help shaking his head while talking, the impact of the money in front of him was too great, and he would never forget it in his life.

He, the minister of the household department of the Ming Dynasty, was very aware of the embarrassment of the Ming court. It was really poor.

Even though he is Grandet, even though he is a pork chop, the court's tax money is too little, less than three million taels of silver a year, to maintain the operation of such a large empire, it is no longer enough. To describe it, but it feels like a drop in the bucket.

"Could you have robbed North Korea's treasury?"

The same is true for Li Dongyang, no one can keep calm in front of such a huge silver, Li Dongyang can't, even if Emperor Hongzhi comes here.

He really couldn't figure out how they brought back such a huge amount of money, so he shook his head and asked.

"We don't need to rob at all, not to mention that the treasury of North Korea cannot have so much silver, and we can't rob it."

"These are all earned by our business. I brought a boatload of glass products to North Korea. Not only did I earn three million taels of silver, but I also bought back five million catties of rice."

Du Mingen smiled and said without hesitation, does this need to be robbed?
No need, businessmen in North Korea line up to give themselves silver. This glass product is extremely popular in North Korea. Mirrors are definitely an export artifact in this era. A mirror sells for thousands of taels of silver. What could be more profitable than this? of.

"Haha, Lao Du did a great job, and he came back at the right time. These rice are life-saving straws. With these five million catties of rice, there is no need to worry about this famine."

Liu Jin was also deeply attracted by the boxes of silver in front of him. Although the Internet is developed in later generations, let alone the silver, even the treasury has seen it from the Internet, but it is another matter in reality. A box of silver, the impact is still leveraged.

However, Liu Jin soon came back to his senses, smiled and gave Du Mingen a thumbs up. This trip to North Korea not only earned money, but also bought food, which made Liu Jin's next actions change. It's more comfortable.

"Haha, in fact, I didn't do anything. Just come and do it according to the method you explained."

"Mr. Liu, you are the best. According to the method you taught, sailing in the sea is very simple, and I was able to go to North Korea smoothly."

Du Mingen smiled happily. He is really grinning from ear to ear now. This trip to North Korea, in just half a month, he can earn hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. This kind of earning speed is simply unprecedented. unheard of.

Of course, this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that this trip to North Korea allowed him to see the endless wealth in the ocean. This is just a trip to North Korea. The world outside of Ming Dynasty is so vast.

Golden Continent, Luzon, Southeast Asia, Europe, Africa... As long as you master the method of sea navigation, the sea is so big that you can let yourself gallop, and you can easily earn wealth that you never thought of before.

So whether his words really came from the heart, or because Liu Jin is so powerful, he taught Du Mingen the way to sail in the sea, which is equivalent to showing Du Mingen a road to Jinshan and Yinshan. He naturally admires it very much.

"Take a shipment of glass products to North Korea and get back three million taels of silver and five million catties of rice!"

Big Zhang Mao's eyes stared like a bull's eye, and at the same time turned red like a rabbit. He immediately felt that this fishing trip seemed to be earning hard money. If he really made a lot of money, he had to go to sea to do business quickly. The coal industry run by the side seems to be even more hard-earned.

　What would it feel like to see several trillion soft sister coins piled up together?
