    As the territory of the Ming Dynasty expanded westward, the influence of the Ming Dynasty also continued to influence the west. The footprints of the Ming Dynasty merchants began to spread all over the world, and the currency of the Ming Dynasty gradually circulated to all parts of the world.

    The silver coins minted by the First Bank of the Ming Dynasty are now not only popular throughout the Ming Dynasty, but also the most popular currency around the world.

    This kind of silver coin cast in the Ming Dynasty is very beautiful, better than the silver coins cast in other regions at the same time. Of course, the most important thing is that the silver content is very high, the weight is uniform, the error is minimal, the reputation is very good, and it is very easy to use.  convenient.

    ???Everyone who has come into contact with Ming merchants likes Ming silver coins and is very happy to accept Ming silver coins. Some countries and regions close to Ming Dynasty have even begun to accept silver notes issued by the Ming Dynasty First Bank.

    Like in Nanyang, Ming Dynasty¡¯s silver coins and banknotes circulated unhindered, and everyone liked them. Even merchants in Persia and the Middle East were willing to accept Ming Dynasty¡¯s banknotes, because there were many merchants in Ming Dynasty, and it was really convenient.

    Here in West Asia, although the Ming Dynasty¡¯s silver notes have not yet become popular, the Ming Dynasty¡¯s silver coins have been accepted by people in various regions. The Crimean Khanate has dealings with Ottoman Empire merchants, so they naturally know the Ming Dynasty¡¯s currency.

    A silver coin is one tael of silver. It contains high silver content, is beautifully cast, and is easy to carry. Everyone likes it.

    Now these businessmen are actually willing to pay twenty-five taels of silver to buy the slaves in their hands. Calculating, the more than a thousand slaves brought this time can be sold for more than 20,000 silver coins.

    This was far beyond Haji¡¯s original expectations.

    In the past, the slave trade of the Crimean Khanate was mainly completed through the city of Kaffa on the Crimean Peninsula. They were mainly responsible for plundering slaves and then sending them to the city of Kaffa for sale.  Slave traders from the Ottoman Empire.

    Therefore, the price is determined by the slave merchants of the Ottoman Empire. Generally speaking, an adult and strong Slavic slave can be sold for about 15 gold coins.

    Don¡¯t think gold coins are valuable just because they hear it. The gold coins here are gold coins minted during the Golden Horde. In a place like this, when there is a lack of precious metals, the gold content of one gold coin is very low. The price of 15 gold coins is about  A horse costs about the same.

    Of course, this was the situation in the Golden Horde at that time. In areas such as Eastern Europe and West Asia, pastures could be seen everywhere, and horses were everywhere. The price of horses was actually quite low.

    Unlike the previous Ming Dynasty, the price of horses was very high, and good horses cost hundreds of taels of silver. However, in recent years, as the territory of the Ming Dynasty has become larger and larger, a large number of pastoral areas have been included in the territory of the Ming Dynasty, and the price of horses in the Ming Dynasty has also increased.  in rapid decline.

    ??If converted, the price of a Slavic slave sold to slave merchants in the Ottoman Empire was around ten taels of silver.

    The slave traders of the Ottoman Empire earned most of the money, while the Tatars of the Crimean Khanate only earned a hard-earned sum of money.

    Now, leaving aside the slave merchants of the Ottoman Empire, several major trading houses offered twenty-five taels of silver, which was more than double the price for Haji and the others, which was a very high price.

    For the trading houses, when they sold slaves from merchants of the Ottoman Empire and Persian Empire, the price was almost the same, and they were not given too high.

    Slaves bought for twenty-five taels of silver can be sold for fifty or sixty taels of silver. If they are beautiful female slaves, the price can be even higher. The market demand is very large. The worry is that there are not enough slaves.  , rather than price.

    "Twenty-five taels of silver, just twenty-five taels of silver, all sold~"

    Haji agreed very readily. At such a price, there was no reason not to sell it.

    Soon, people from several major trading houses jointly spent money to buy all the slaves in Haji's hands. Boxes and boxes of silver dollars were moved over on the spot and placed in Haji's hands.

    "Refreshing~"

    Haji looked at the silver coins wrapped in oil paper in the box, picked up a letter at random, opened it with force, and the white silver coins were exposed. He randomly checked some and found that they were all high-quality Ming Dynasty silver coins. He was immediately happy.  laughed.

    The people of Ming Dynasty are indeed as wealthy as the rumors say, and they do business with dignity.

    ¡°In the future, you can sell to us as many slaves as you want, and we will charge as much as you want at the same price.¡±

    Shopkeeper Li of Daming Ocean Trading Company said very grandly.

    "Haha, can you please come to our Crete by yourself in the future?"The army uses a terrible firearm that can directly blow open city gates and walls. I wonder if you can buy some such firearms for us?  "

    "You may not know that the castles of the Slavs and Eastern Europeans are very strong and difficult to attack. If we have such firearms, we can easily attack their castles and capture more slaves."

    When Haji heard this, he immediately laughed happily, and then tentatively asked about the firearms.

    "A bag of explosives~"

    "Of course there is, and of course I can sell it to you, but this explosive pack is too powerful, and it is a regulated item. The quantity is not large, and the price is naturally not cheap."

    When Li Mingsong heard it, he immediately knew what it was, and after thinking about it, he said.

    "Such a major event is certainly not his decision. In fact, before coming here, the superiors had made it clear that explosive bags could be sold to the Crimean Tatars, so he dared to sell these things.

    He naturally didn¡¯t understand the reason, but he just had to follow what was told above.  (Remember the website address: www.hlnovel.com
