    ¡°Sell newspapers~Sell newspapers~¡±

    "The fleet heading to Golden Continent is back~"

    "Bring back gold and silver worth thirty million taels~"

    With the sounds of newspapers being sold in the streets and alleys of the capital, the entire capital seems to have come alive. The Ming Dynasty Morning Post has now become a part of the lives of young and old men in the capital.

    "Give me one~Give me one~"

    Soon, each newsboy was surrounded by people buying newspapers, all of whom couldn't wait to get the newspaper to read the latest news.

    "Oh my God~"

    ¡°Twenty million taels of silver plus one million taels of gold, the fleet brought back wealth worth thirty million taels of silver from Golden Continent~¡±

    ¡°Golden Island is really full of gold~¡±

    ??Everyone who picked up the latest issue of the Tomorrow Morning Post could not help but marvel.

    Because this time the Ming Dynasty Morning Post reported this matter in detail and used most of its space to report this matter.

    The most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the wealth that the fleet brought back from Golden Continent, which is worth thirty million taels of silver. This is such a huge number.

    In a teahouse in the capital, the shopkeeper of the teahouse was reading the newspaper loudly to the teahouse guests as usual. When he read that he had brought back 30 million taels of gold and silver, the entire teahouse fell silent.

    Everyone was dumbfounded, their mouths widened, and some couldn't help but pick their ears, wondering if they heard it wrong.

    "Shopkeeper, did I hear wrongly? You just said gold and silver worth thirty million taels?"

    "Yes, it is clearly written on it. It is gold and silver worth thirty million taels of silver, of which there are twenty million taels of silver and one million taels of gold. The total value is more than thirty million taels."

    The shopkeeper of the teahouse looked at it carefully again and said with certainty.

    "Thirty million taels of silver, how much is this?"

    Someone couldn¡¯t help but said in amazement.

    "I heard about this yesterday. The fleet came back yesterday. Yesterday at the Tianjin port, ten big fortune ships came back from Huanghuangzhou. The gold and silver they brought back were piled up on the dock to form mountains of gold.  , Yinshan, I heard that the entire port is filled with golden and silver light."

    A well-informed person spoke.

    "Then aren't all the crew members who went to sea paid?"

    Someone thought for a while and said.

    "Nonsense, of course I posted it~"

    "This fleet was jointly funded by Emperor Zhan, Liu Jin, Liu Zhuangyuan, and a businessman named Du Mingen. Emperor Zhan and businessman Du Mingen each owned 30%, Liu Jin and Liu Gongzi owned 20%, and the remaining 20% ??belonged to all  crew."

    "I heard that yesterday, His Royal Highness the Prince and Liu Jin went to the Tianjin Port to welcome them back, and they distributed 20% of the gold and silver belonging to the crew to the crew on the spot. Counting these more than a thousand people, each day  One person can almost get more than two thousand silver."

    "More than six thousand taels of silver. These crew members used to be miserable. I heard that some of them were military households and their families were so poor that they couldn't even afford food. But now, they just go to sea and earn a lot in more than a year."  More than six thousand taels of silver, I can't eat them all in a lifetime."

    The shopkeeper followed, because all this was clearly written in the newspaper.

    Obviously, this is what Liu Jin meant, which is to use money to stimulate the people of the Ming Dynasty to continue traveling abroad, and not always limit their vision to this three-acre land of the Ming Dynasty.

    Liu Jin wants this effect by supporting the bold to death and starving the timid to death.

    "More than a year, more than six thousand taels of silver!"

    When the people in the teahouse heard this, they all couldn't help but take a breath.

    ¡°These people are all from the capital, and they are obviously rich people who can come to the teahouse to spend money. But when they heard that they earned more than 6,000 taels of silver in more than a year, they all couldn¡¯t help but their eyes turned red.

    There is no doubt about the purchasing power of silver. In this era, you can marry your mother-in-law with only three taels of silver, and build a house with just a few taels of silver. Even a house in the capital can be bought with dozens of taels or hundreds of taels of silver. Six thousand taels of silver can buy it.  Two silver coins is an astronomical figure to ordinary people.

    Maybe thirty million taels of silver don¡¯t have such a strong feeling for them, because everyone knows that it is impossible for them to own these thirty million taels of silver.

    But I heard that sailors who go to sea can earn more than 6,000 taels of silver in just over a year.They wanted boats, money, and people. Such a huge cake must not be missed. Zhang Mao, Zhu Fu, and Liu Jin's brother-in-law came to Tianjin from the capital overnight.  , found Liu Jin, and undoubtedly wanted to recruit Liu Jin to form a new fleet heading to Golden Continent.

    The civil servant group can no longer calm down. In the past, these civil servants were representatives of big landowners and gentry. Their families had huge properties and they were also engaged in some businesses.

    But with the rise of capitalism, they soon discovered that relying on the little money collected from land rents, their wealth grew much slower than that of emerging capitalists.

    Now, as the fleet came back, thirty million taels of silver suddenly formed an even more terrifying impact. No one could remain calm in the face of such a huge wealth. They, like everyone else, were extremely jealous, and at the same time, they were absolutely jealous.  Hesitantly joined in this huge feast of wealth.

    The entire Ming Dynasty was in a state of agitation, and was agitated by the huge wealth of 30 million taels of silver.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
