Yan Ling remembered the location of several gold and silver mines, after all, when he first played the game, he didn't check the gold and silver mine information in Japan.

Yes, this is also the reason why Yan Ling can be like a prophet, because this is a game after all, and it can be withdrawn to check the information!

Of course, the tech tree can only be taken one step at a time. Commands to enter certain recipes are strictly forbidden. You can only give the craftsmen of the time a research direction and then look at their abilities, and you can't just end up yourself. After all, if you really want to do it, soap glass flintlock pistol steam engine, this game is too simple, the Qing army came to Jiangnan to find abuse, right?

Therefore, for some cross-era items, Yan Ling has not studied much.

However, Yan Lingke knows a lot about geography!

But those gold mines or something, he really can't keep them! Iwami Silver Mine can still be discussed, although the daimyo will definitely want to fight for it after learning of its existence, but they don't know how brilliant this mine will be in the future, so the high output may be gone one day, and it is not the kind that is out of the way. But as soon as the gold mine came out, the eyes of the daimyo were not red!

So in the end, he chose the silver mine.

And those experienced miners also quickly found veins under the soil layer.

"My lord, there are ore veins, and it seems to be a big mine!" When the miner's manager found Yan Ling, he stammered.

Yan Ling nodded, this was not out of his expectations, forty-nine years later, the Japanese would be able to find this vein on their own, and there was no reason why the more technologically advanced Ming could not.

"Don't mine yet." He instructed, "For the time being, we will mine those small silver mines first, and after a period of rumors have passed, we will officially mine them." ”

"Yes!" The manager had little stars in his eyes, and he was no longer simply obedient to orders from Nanjing, but admired him.

After all, the other party just glanced at it, and insisted that there was a big mine here, and they really dug it out, this skill can be described as miraculous.

Yan Ling left Japan with a garrison of 1,500 men, and the Luzon Governor's Office would establish a base in the area in accordance with the terms of the treaty and publicize the existence of the port.

With such a tax-free port, it is conceivable that Japanese merchants will flock to it, and it will also be a considerable amount of income.

And his order to avoid the limelight is also extremely correct.

Masahiro Ouchi is not a fool either, he also suspects that there is something wrong with the silver mine, and sends someone to secretly observe it there for a while.

After all, Yan Ling's excuse was to borrow the port to do business, so he couldn't stop the merchants from coming and going, and Da Uchi's subordinates seized this point and secretly mixed in.

However, it is true that a certain amount of silver is shipped out of it every day, but this amount is very small, and it is basically equivalent to the output of the silver mines during the reign of the Great Uchishohiro.

If you go any further, you can't get in, and the mine is forbidden by the Luzon Army and is strictly forbidden to enter.

However, the amount of silver shipped out is enough to judge something.

After discovering that there was really no problem, Masahiro Ouchi withdrew his manpower.

But what he didn't know was that his spies had nothing to hide in front of the hidden dragon spies brought by Yan Ling, and their identities were quickly exposed, and they had already been monitored.

After the spies were retrieved, it took a while to confirm that no one was watching, and the mining of the veins officially began.

Countless ores were excavated from the rock formations, and the smelted white silver blinded the miners.

And these miners also brought with them the more advanced smelting technology of the Ming Dynasty at that time, and the efficiency was higher than that of the local ones in Japan!

And when the first ship of smelted silver was shipped to Ningbo Mansion, everyone in the Yan family was shocked.

That's 30,000 taels of silver, and that's just the results of hundreds of miners who have not yet fully built up the various measures!

The old man of the clan stroked the cart after cart of silver with trembling hands, and his hands were trembling: "It's only been a month, it's only been a month...... With a mining volume of this scale, even if it is the silver mines in our nearby government combined, there may not be so much. ”

"My lord, you, you are too godly, you have brought such a lot of benefits to our family after going out."

"God bless me Yan!"

The rest of the clan elders were also surprised to look at the silver car with fanatical eyes, and then at Yan Ling.

When they learned that Yan Ling had mastered a silver mine overseas, although they were happy, they were not very excited, after all, they knew the amount of silver mines mined in the Ming Dynasty.

Of course, this is also a very lucrative business, but it is not enough for them to feel too excited, after all, the Yan family is also a big business.

So when they learned of the huge gains, the clan elders couldn't even believe their ears, suspecting that they had been fooled by this lord.

This kid, shouldn't he really fool us! Even those silver mines in Yunnan do not have such an output method, which is simply digging money from the ground!

But that cart of silver can't be faked! Their suspicions were swept away by the facts, and all that was left was excitement and incomparable excitement!

This is really true, and it will increase the development speed of the family by one or even several steps!

After all, China's silver production is indeed not high, mainly concentrated in Yunnan, while Japan is at the junction of plates, so gold and silver mines are relatively rich.

And Yan Ling also knew that this was far from reaching the limit of Iwami Ginba.

As far as he knew, at its peak, Iwami Silver Farm could produce thirty-eight tons of silver a year, that is, millions of taels!

This figure even exceeded the total amount of silver mined in the Ming Dynasty in a year at that time.

You can imagine how terrifying the benefits will be if you mine with all your might! At least double or triple the current monthly mining volume, absolutely no problem!

Yan Ling immediately ordered another batch of miners and tools to be sent over from the mainland, and the mining must be accelerated!

Under these circumstances, the output of the Iwami silver mine reached 50,000 in the second month, 60,000 in the third month, and continued to rise steadily.

This is a huge amount of income, and compared to the profit, the investment is completely negligible, which is simply unprofitable!

All of a sudden, the silver came from the south!

The clan elders in charge of finances are all smiling, and the continuous inflow of silver has made the Yan family's wallet rich again, and all aspects are developing at full speed!

If you have money, this waist pole is also hard.

Yan Ling asked the Luzon Governor's Office to recruit troops again, expanding the total number of troops to 6,000 men, and also cultivated a cavalry force of 800 men, which could completely survey one side if there was chaos in Japan in the future.

The officials in Jiangsu and Zhejiang all fell under the silver bullet offensive, and they also turned a blind eye to some of the Yan family's slightly outrageous behaviors.
