What is the concept of hundreds of millions of taels of silver, and now the tax silver of the Ming Dynasty will not exceed 3 million taels a year.

Now it is not compared to later generations, silver from the Americas has not yet had a large-scale inflow, silver is still very expensive, valuable, to the late Ming Dynasty, when the concealment, the large-scale inflow of silver, only began to really increase, gradually replaced copper coins to become the main currency, as for the current is still dominated by copper coins.

As soon as the hundreds of millions of taels of silver came out, it was like a super bomb, which blew everyone up, and then they all shook their heads again and again, unable to believe Liu Jin's words.

"I know you may not believe me, but the world is so big, there are no wonders, a Iwami silver mine is nothing, there is a more fascinating place in the world than this Iwami silver mine."

"That's the Golden Continent~"

Liu Jin looked at the people around him, ignored everyone's doubts, but took a brush and continued to draw on the white cloth.

"Look, to the east of the Wa Kingdom, this is a very vast ocean, which we can call the Pacific Ocean."

"If we want to reach the Golden Continent, we can go all the way north from the Wa Kingdom, and then sail further east from the northernmost part of our continent to the northern part of the Golden Continent."

Liu Jin drew a route on the map, which in later terms was to go north from the Japanese side, reach the Bering Strait and then go east to Alaska.

"The Golden Continent is a very vast continent, and the area of the Golden Continent is very large, from north to south, the area is about dozens as big as our Ming Dynasty."

"This is a godsend, the land is very fertile, in the middle and east of the Golden Continent there are very vast plains, you can just scatter a few seeds and sit and wait for the harvest."

"In addition to the fertile land, the Golden Continent, the Golden Continent, from the name you know that here in the Golden Continent, there is gold almost everywhere, and the indigenous people here... They are very backward, they can't even smelt iron, they love gold very much, and they have built huge gold cities with gold, and the bricks in them are cast with gold. ”

Liu Jin exaggerated the richness, vast land, and endless gold of the Golden Continent, and also pointed out that the barbarians of the Golden Continent are very easy to conquer, as long as you go, you can take the gold at will.

On the entire second floor, everyone was deeply attracted by the Golden Continent depicted by Liu Jin, and they all widened their eyes in disbelief, and at the same time understood why Liu Jin said that the Iwami silver mine in the Wa Kingdom was nothing, and compared with gold, silver was naturally nothing.

This gold everywhere and using gold to build cities is really too exaggerated, but when I heard Liu Jin's description, some people's eyes were red, and they couldn't wait to go to the Golden Continent now and rob the golden cities one by one.

"Is there such a place in the world?"

"The Golden Continent, there is gold everywhere, how is this possible."

The middle-aged man shook his head again and again, Liu Jin's words were too exaggerated, it was like a fantasy, it sounded like listening to myths and legends handed down from ancient times, unattainable and very absurd.

"In addition to the gold everywhere and the vast and fertile land that is very conducive to cultivation, there are several treasures here in the Golden Continent."

Liu Jin looked at everyone's expressions, and also showed a satisfied smile, what he wants is this effect, whether it is useful or not, first draw a big cake for people, maybe the butterfly effect will slowly cause a chain reaction It is difficult to say.

"How many treasures are there?"

When everyone heard this, they immediately became more energetic, and they wanted to know what kind of things were still in this Golden Continent, and they also wanted to know what kind of cow Liu Jin could blow out.

"As I said earlier, this Golden Continent is a heaven-sent land, a place favored by God."

Liu Jin took a sip of tea to moisten his throat, then looked at everyone and continued.

"Our Ming Dynasty's grain crops, the south is mainly rice, the north is mainly wheat, chestnut rice, sorghum, etc., do you know how much rice and wheat, chestnut rice production is an acre?"

"I am engaged in grain trading, I know one thing, we are mainly based on rice in the south of the Ming Dynasty, rice can be planted two seasons a year, early rice and late rice, high-grade paddy fields, early rice and late rice can add up to about 5 stone per mu, if it is a medium paddy field, it is only about 4 stone per mu, and the lower field is even less."

"The wheat in the north is also divided into winter wheat and spring wheat, and the combined yield is about 4 stone a year, and as for the yield of chestnut rice, it is almost 2 stone per mu."

Hearing Liu Jin's words, a businessman at the scene stood up and replied.

"Thank you very much for this friend."

Liu Jin thanked the other party, and the other party was also very polite in return.

"You may think it is strange, why do I talk about the grain production of our Daming, what does this grain have to do with the treasure of the Golden Continent."

Then Liu Jin continued to mention the Golden Continent again, and everyone also looked at the area of the Golden Continent painted by Liu Jin on the white cloth again.

"The most valuable wealth of the Golden Continent is not the vast and rich land, nor the gold that can be seen everywhere, but its most valuable wealth is the three crops of the Golden Continent."

"These three crops are corn, potatoes, sweet potatoes, our Ming rice and wheat yield per mu is only four or five stones, but these three crops in the Golden Continent, their yield can easily reach 20 stone per mu, like potatoes and sweet potatoes, its yield can even exceed 30 stone, 40 stone."

"Do you think this crop is the most valuable treasure?"

Liu Jin threw a bombshell again, throwing corn, potatoes, and sweet potatoes.

"It's impossible~ how can there be such a high-yield crop in the world."

The businessman who had just answered the question and the middle-aged man who had just answered the question stood up and said in unison.

"It's absolutely impossible~"

"Yes, how can there be dozens of stones of grain per acre, this is still grain, why have we never heard of it?"

"If we can really produce dozens of stones per mu, there will be no hungry people in this world, everyone will be able to eat enough, and there will even be a large amount of food leftover."

After the others were shocked one by one, they all shook their heads one after another, and no one believed the grain that yielded dozens of stones per mu, but you must know that although gold is precious and land is precious, the most precious thing is food, because people can have no gold or land, but they can't skip eating.

"If there really is such a food crop, then these three things are really more precious than gold!"

The middle-aged man soon seemed to realize his gaffe, and slowly returned to his chair, muttering to himself.
