- Hearing this, Ma Jishan nodded in shock and said, "The Finance Department also estimated such a figure!"
"Wow, Xiao Jing, you are so awesome. How did you calculate that?" Lin Feng looked at Zhang Xiaojing with admiration.
"It's very simple, it's just that you never worry about buying and selling goods." Zhang Xiaojing is very capable and well-spoken. It's no wonder that even Lin Feng has become her little crush.
"Six million silver pesos are equivalent to 4.5 million taels of silver. 500,000 gold pesos can be converted into 3 million taels of silver. There is also a ton of gold utensils, which can be converted into 256,000 taels of silver. The total of gold and silver is almost eight million taels. "Xiao Zhuzi, the general police committee member, is not just a breadwinner. She is responsible for all the trade along the fleet.
"Oh" Lin Feng said with silver light shining at the corner of his mouth.
"Then those gems, according to the domestic price, are almost one million taels of silver. Spices can be sold in Europe for 16 ducats per quintal, but it includes 4 ducats in freight. One hundred tons is ten thousand taels, discounted The price of silver is 145,000 taels; the price of sucrose is 15 times that of the Ming Dynasty, and the value of 300 tons is 600,000 taels" Zhang Xiaojing reported the European prices of all the goods carefully, and finally said:
"The total is twelve million taels. But this is the price sold to Europeans. If it is shipped back to Ming Dynasty, it will not be worth so much money."
"Why are their prices so high?" Although Lin Feng didn't understand, she was deeply shocked.
"This is called a price revolution. Spain is transporting gold and silver to Europe ship by ship, but the goods on the market do not increase. Instead, they are sold out. Of course, prices will skyrocket." Zhang Xiaojing explained:
"According to the observations of your master and my husband, prices in Europe have generally increased two to three times in the past century, and in Spain they have increased four times. It is commonly said that all the poor have is money."
"Yeah, I understand." Lin Feng's head was buzzing, so he pretended to be enlightened and ended the topic.
But she still understands the principle of selling stolen goods on the spot. For example, silk and porcelain were all made in the Ming Dynasty, and only a fool would transport them back thousands of miles away.
There are also cane sugar, spices, tobacco, and horse hair. It¡¯s not enough to transport them back to the Ming Dynasty. Only in Europe, where people are stupid and have a lot of money, can they be sold at such a high price
"It seems that it is necessary to sell this batch of goods before going back." Ma Jishan also touched his bare chin and said.
"If you want to take action, I suggest you sell all your gold and exchange it for silver." Zhang Xiaojing said: "In the Ming Dynasty, one tael of gold was worth eight taels of silver, but in Europe one tael of gold was worth twelve taels of silver. So this The gold is precious."
"That means if I exchange gold for silver, I can still make a fortune?" Lin Feng felt like she was about to have an intracranial orgasm.
"You will get another 1,628,000 taels of silver." Zhang Xiaojing said.
"Wow, I'm so prosperous!" Lin Feng jumped three feet high.
In privateering operations, the risks faced by the crew are greater than in normal military operations. Moreover, once they fail and are captured, the group and the security area will not admit that they are related to them, nor will they directly organize a rescue.
Therefore, according to the principle of equal risk and return, when the privateering harvest is distributed, the proportion of crew members is higher than the normal "two-one-one" principle, and they can take half of the profits.
¡°Half of the ¡®distributable profits¡¯ after deducting the costs of going to sea, personnel pensions, ship losses and other expenses are distributed to them.
So with just this one, these thousand crew members can get at least 6 million taels of silver!
It¡¯s enough to make everyone rich overnight!
"I really just came to complete this round-the-world voyage with a noble mood. How could I accidentally make a fortune?!" Lin Feng smiled from ear to ear and whipped Ma Jishan into pieces with a small leather whip. Gyro said happily:
¡°It¡¯s not a good time to stay here for a long time, hurry up and load the ship!¡±
"There are too many goods, how can we all move them all." Ma Jishan felt his body burning, and said happily: "All the prisoners are being moved, and it will take another ten days for our people to be able to move them." , to complete the transfer.¡±
"Ten days is too long!" Lin Feng shook his head decisively and said: "Let's leave the ship in the best condition without transshipment, and we will sail away directly! The remaining three ships must be moved in six days!"
After a pause, she said in a deep voice: "Tell the prisoners that when the move is completed in six days, I will give them their freedom! But if the move is not completed in six days, then I'm sorry, everyone down here!"
"Understood!" Ma Jishan hurried out to deliver the order.
??~~
In the next few days, the crew members were motivated by huge wealth and were full of energy.
The captives are even more motivated if they want to live and be free. Even the nobles tried their best to move it!
?There was total silence, no one wanted to lose their lives at the last moment.
¡°I can¡¯t figure out my identity, bah!¡± Liu Yishou spat, turning back to what the Spaniards call the ¡®Flying Hulan¡oh no, the Dutch¡¯.
So the crew followed the order and first released the slaves and prisoners, and then used small boats to transport them to the three Spanish galleons anchored in the bay.
Nine out of ten of those prisoners are pirates and smugglers, and there are not many sailors needed to sail a large sailboat, so sailing away these three treasure ships is no problem.
This made them extremely happy. If they had such a good ship back then, how could they be caught by the anti-smuggling brigade?
With these three boats, why don¡¯t you go sideways in the Caribbean in the future?
As for the slave rowers, they were also tricked into becoming their subordinates. Everyone wears shackles together, eats, sleeps and rows together every day, which indeed cultivates some sense of teamwork and class feelings. So everyone decided to form a pirate fleet and fight in the Caribbean to take revenge on the Spanish! Get rich and go home!
They plan to go to Panama first, because the gold and silver mined by the Spanish from Peru will be transported there and concentrated for shipment in the autumn
The prisoners here happily set off in the boat, but the Spaniards on the shore were still staring.
Their galleys originally had holes and leaks. But the people of the Ming Dynasty took away all their artillery, ammunition, weapons, and armor on the pretext of collecting military supplies. They also dismantled the ship until only the keel was left
How can this guy go to sea?
Lin Feng didn¡¯t care about so many things. It would be good if he could keep them alive.
Not long after the three large sailing ships left, she also led a fully loaded fleet to leave Guantš¢namo Oh no, Mahjong Bay.
