When he heard that it was to support agricultural reform and put cash into the rural market, Shimadzu breathed a sigh of relief. As long as you don't want to **** it for nothing, we can talk about it later.

Raw silk is now in high demand, and because Japanese silk has begun the process of quality unification ahead of time, businessmen from Britain and the United States like it very much. Basically, when it is delivered to Yokohama, it is ordered by foreign companies and businessmen in Yokohama.

While certainly not as sought-after as gold, it's not far behind.

Your uncle Chuemon has spoken, but the eldest nephew can't help? Shimadzu pondered the definition for a while, although he felt that it was okay to agree directly, but after all, he still had a father above him, so he had to go back and ask.

"Can you allow me to discuss with the retainers before answering?" Shimadzu's definition pondered.

"It's natural, such a big event should be discussed carefully." Chuemon is not a force to buy and sell, of course.

Who knows, the Shimadzu family still has the final say. Shimadzu defines this naval practice, and there is a coastal defense hanging behind him to advise him. In a short period of time, Shimadzu's definition was just a microphone.

However, Chuemon's proposal should be easy to accept. Anyway, the Shimadzu family has to spend money, and what they spend is not a flower. If you exchange gold for the shogunate, you can also sell it for the shogunate, so why not do it.

With more currency, Chuemon was able to buy farmers' agricultural and sideline products from Ninomiya Zunyuki's reformed countryside. Let the farmers get money, not only to be able to feed themselves, but also to pay taxes.

It is estimated that Satsuma produces at least 300,000-400,000-400,000 taels of gold per year, and if it is converted into currency, it can be turned into 700,000-800,000 taels. Half of Jin Xiao's sentence is silver and bronze, which is still conservative.

In addition to the output of Sado Jinshan and Hongzhiwu Jinshan, the shogunate invests more than 1.2 million taels of small cash in the market every year. The rural market, which was originally bartered and exchanged with physical objects, can also get the supply of money.

Isn't it a time-travel novel that the peasants on the continent next door have never seen what silver looks like in their entire lives, and even copper coins are rarely seen. The general equivalent in southern rural areas is one liter of rice, and the general equivalent in northern rural areas is one liter of millet. If you really want to change something expensive, count it with eggs.

Considering that this may indeed be the general situation in the countryside, since Chuemon is to promote the experiment of agricultural reform, it must change this situation in the countryside.

To do things, you have to do the whole thing, you can't do half of it. After the Shimadzu family's gold is in place, Chuemon and Ninomiya Zunyuki will talk about this matter, and carry out agricultural experiments together.

"After two or three days, there will be results." Shimadzu defined Chaochuemon and agreed.

"No rush, no rush." ​​Chuemon waved his hand, letting Shimadzu go home and ask the parents.

Remining currency is also a big project. The casting of hundreds of thousands of gold small sentences cannot be completed in one or two days. Therefore, Chuemon is not in a hurry at all, and it is useless to be in a hurry.

By the way, the shogunate has long known that the Shimadzu family has a gold mine. Otherwise, how did the Edo Castle tower with one million taels of gold built? The fort built by Uraga and Fujin, who made the more than 400,000 taels of gold?

Now that Shimadzu and the shogunate have a good relationship, naturally they won't hit Shimadzu's idea. If the relationship between Shimadzu and the shogunate is not good one day, the shogunate will order the Shimadzu family to overhaul Kanei-ji Temple and Zenjoji Temple.

Or in the immediate Tone River maintenance project, the task is directly handed over to the Shimadzu family, and the Shimadzu family pays the money to do the work. There are ways to weaken the financial power of the Shimadzu family. The current "arms race" with the Shimadzu family is actually weakening the financial power of the Shimadzu family in disguise.

Shimadzu was buying steam gunboats, Mignet rifles and needle guns, and that little bit of gold wasn't enough for him. Use a fraction of the financial resources to catch up with the military of the shogunate and see who can't bear it first.

The second half of the 19th century was an era when weapons fell behind in the blink of an eye!

The definition of Shimadzu was also sent away, and in the end, only Chuemon and Ninomiya were left. Chuemon just needs to lead him to draw out a loan of 100,000 taels. The subsequent issue of the Industrial Society's purchase of rural handicraft products, when Shigeru Nara handed over to him, Chuemon doesn't need to explain it to him now. .

When I came out of Decheng, it was already evening. Today's afternoon tea party in the Imperial Palace has been held long enough, and there are a lot of things to talk about. Terazawa Shintaro, who was already at the foot of the castle, hurriedly brought the horse of Chuyouemon and escorted Chuyouemon home.

Biaoou's Hamoto samurai had already been off duty, and after 2:00 in the afternoon, Biaoou was basically unmanned. Even if there are people, they are just left-behind staff on duty. There is no need to crowd out at the city gate. If you leave when the samurai are on duty, it will be much better than the scene where everyone crowds into the subway when they get off work in later generations.

It is said that in the history of the shogunate, because everyone withdrew from the city, you didn't let me, and I didn't let you, and finally they fought each other at the gate of the city. Thinking about it, it should be possible, and the Hamoto family members are all good-faced existences. It is really possible that they will be red-faced if they are pushed out by others.

"His Royal Highness, the colleague of the previous Ninomiya-sama, Tomita Gaoqing came to post again, asking about the Tonegawa maintenance project." The guard reminded Terazawa Shintaro next to Chuemon.

Before, Ninomiya Junyuki and Tomita Takaki came to Chuemon~lightnovelpub.net~ for the water control project of the Tone River. Now the Tonegawa thing has not settled, but the rural reform experiment has taken a big step. Although it makes them very happy, the Tonegawa thing cannot be delayed.

If you don't prepare now, how will you manage the Tone River when the water runs dry this winter?

"Understood..." Chuyouemon did not forget this matter, the 400,000 taels of water control money, the shogunate would definitely be able to allocate it.

Right now, Songping Qimin is just holding on to the money bag, for fear that he will not be able to make money in the future, so he refuses to allocate funds. Otherwise, when he was in the Central Olympics earlier, he asked Zhongemon why so much, because he was afraid that he would not be able to receive the money.

I went back and discussed with him, and asked Tomita Gaoqing to write down the source and general use of the water control funds, and have a detailed account. This sub should be able to be allocated. Songping Qimin Haolai was also a standard feudal ruler and knew the importance of water control to the agricultural society.

Anyway, if you really need money, you have to wait until the start of the project after the winter, and there are still three or four months. At that time, the annual tribute for this year will be released to Edo, and once millions of stone of rice are sold, the shogunate's book can always be cleared.
