Chapter 246, I have already made several million taels before reaching the Golden Continent(2/2)
The profits from traveling to the Ming Dynasty and Japan were astonishing, at least one million taels of silver would be earned.
"Look at your little potential, only five million taels of silver. We have just set off not long ago. This Golden Continent is full of gold. When we arrive at Golden Continent, we will bring back this boatload of gold.
It’s just called getting paid, this small amount of money is nothing at all.”
Du Mingen looked at Tian Erniu, smiled and said.
He now understands the huge profits of maritime trade, and he finally understands why these big families and gentry in the Jiangnan region are desperately trying to get the court to impose a routine maritime ban.
Without it, the profits from sea trade are too great. A trip to the Japanese country will earn millions of taels of silver. These big families, gentry, and merchants who rely on overseas business are all estimated to be as rich as the country.
Of course they don't want the imperial court to open the sea. Once the sea ban is lifted and everyone can go to sea to do business, they will have no way to monopolize this business.
Because I listened to Liu Jin's words at Wangyue Tower, I also thought about spending money to go to Golden Continent. In less than a year, there was no trace of Golden Continent yet.
But Du Mingen has already earned back dozens of times the money he invested in this matter. When the fleet was training, he made millions of taels of silver by going to North Korea, and now he will earn millions of taels of silver by going to Japan.
