In China, a merchant ship filled with gold coins and ingots was a very popular and widely used symbol for business success. The shape of a model ship is like that of a dragon with merchants or traders sitting in it and is filled with cargo and gold ingots. This is a very auspicious symbol. You can place such a ship in your office or home. The ship should be placed in such a manner that it is sailing into the harbour. Here, the harbour means your home or office.

The merchant ship is a very good energizer for bringing in wealth. The Chinese people display this ship, in order to achieve higher income and more business. But be careful while placing the ship, it should not be sailing outwards, since that would symbolize money going away rather than coming in!
