In the Meiji era, the industrial enterprises that were built and purchased directly from the government had nurtured several big chaebols. These big chaebols **** with the Meiji government used only a small amount of money, perhaps even in the form of installment payments, to master a large number of modern enterprises, and then rapidly expanded and developed.

What Sumitomo Yoshi's thoughts are, Chuemon is not known. Similarly, Chuemon is not sure whether it is appropriate to directly sell the Kobe Shipyard to the Sumitomo family.

Different from the situation in history, the current state-run enterprises of the shogunate have a very important political mission besides modernizing the country and strengthening the strength of the shogunate.

Settle the samurai!

It can even be said that the main reason why the shogunate was able to continuously and smoothly set up modern enterprises was the support of Hachimoto 80,000. Because the banner 80,000 riders enjoyed the dividends brought by these monopoly enterprises, they entered into them and became state-owned enterprise employees who were hereditary and irreplaceable, with all kinds of salary subsidies.

Under such circumstances, if the old man said that he wanted to abolish modern enterprises and return to the feudal economy of men farming and women weaving, then he would definitely be scolded to death by the banner eighty thousand riders.

In fact, the modern government-run enterprises of the shogunate have been tied to Hachimoto Hachimanki. The eight thousand horses of the flag escorted these modern enterprises, and the responsibilities of these enterprises, in addition to developing the economy, the most important thing is to support the samurai.

So, whether it is appropriate or not to sell Kobe Shipyard to Sumitomo's family, Chuemon is somewhat uncertain.

Of course, the Hajimoto samurai masters are high above, even if they enter the railway department, they can only do relatively decent and light jobs such as flight attendants, conductors, and ticket inspectors. As for the hard work of coal shovelers and stevedores, they are all very willing to let them go and share them with the loners in the society and the common people.

Is life in a shipyard considered hard work?

Calculate!

If you think about it like this, shipbuilding must be one of the hardest jobs. Samurai Hamoto should not have much yearning for this kind of job. Their goal is mainly to sit in the official hall, or the worst, but also the kind of indoor work that can't be exposed to the sun or the rain, and it is definitely not a coolie.

"You go back and wait for the letter." Chuemon did not immediately agree to Sumitomo Yoshihide.

In terms of closeness and distance, the chance to make a fortune must be given to Shigeru Nara first. This is our most trusted white glove, and he has a family background and is very capable in doing business together. Now the silk reeling industry is booming, and it is also involved in the operation of the Tokugawa liner.

Assuming that the shogunate wants to sell the shipbuilding company to the chaebol, then it must be Shigeru Nara, not Sumitomo Yoshihide, who will be sold first.

Don't say Chuemon's cronyism or anything else, Chuemon itself is the eldest brother of the feudal regime of the Tokugawa shogunate, you still expect Chuemon to really speak the pearl everywhere and be enlightened everywhere? Just kidding, at this moment, it is not uncommon for officials and businessmen to collude to support chaebols or something.

Park Kaka next door supported the top ten chaebols along the way and created the "Han River Miracle". Although Chuemon doesn't necessarily need to support ten chaebols, right? It's actually possible to support four or five companies and develop in an industry that the shogunate does not monopolize.

"Please think twice..." Of course Sumitomo Yoshi hoped that Chuemon would think twice and consider his suggestion.

"En." Chuemon just nodded and stopped talking. Valley Valley

Sumitomo Yoshi bowed respectfully, leaving Chuemon and Shigeru Nara in the house. Nara Shigeru saw that Chuemon was thoughtful and did not dare to disturb him, so he prepared to leave and gave Chuemon a quiet environment.

"Don't be in a hurry." Chuemon called Shigeru Nara, we still have something to say to him.

"Please give me your order." Shigeru Nara stopped.

"I ask you, are there still sailboats between Osaka and Edo?" Chuemon only knew that the Tokugawa Line was developing very fast, but did they crowd out the old Japanese shipping companies? No one ever told him.

The Tokugawa Line is now based in Yokohama and Edo, with routes to Hakodate, Ishikari (Sapporo), Toyohara and Langley to the north, and to Osaka, Kobe, Nagasaki, Shimonoseki, Kochi, Kakashi to the south There are also routes to Kojima and other places.

In addition to domestic routes, there are also routes to Shanghai, Hong Kong, Singapore and other places. However, there are generally relatively few international routes, and they are competing with British businessmen, and they have not yet been separated. As for the original route to Kolkata, India, it was temporarily abolished because the war in India was over.

After all, there are not so many people in Japan, or so many goods, and they need to go to India. If there is no source of goods and passengers, this route will naturally not be able to operate.

Thinking about it carefully, since the routes of the Tokugawa cruise ship have been distributed all over the country and the operation is relatively good, then the sailboats in this line should be basically eliminated.

"Not a single one!" Shigeru Nara answered directly.

To tell the truth, those who can engage in the shipping industry between Osaka and Edo are basically the top tycoons of the shogunate, or the second-tier tycoons. Specifically, that is a dozen big businessmen such as Nara, Honchi, Sumitomo, and Mitsui.

Because before the shogunate had an order prohibiting sailing abroad, anyone who went to sea without authorization would be sentenced to death, and sometimes even family members. And those who work in the shipping industry are obviously the most likely to trigger such a ban.

Everyone should know what the feudal government approved. In order to save trouble, they directly asked the big businessmen to bail. This ship has to have documents issued by the shareholders of the shogunate before it can be transported. If something goes wrong, the shogunate will not arrest those little scoundrels, but arrest you big businessmen, it is convenient and convenient, and there is an excuse for ripping things off.

They are the main practitioners of the domestic shipping industry in Japan before, and UU Kanshu www.uukanshu.com are the shareholders of the shogunate. Followed by those royal merchants in the southwest and northeast, who are also qualified to engage in the shipping industry.

"So, all the ships used in the country are ships?" Chuemon continued to ask.

"On the corners, there are still some small boats, which are sailboats, and the rest use new-style steamships." Shigeru Nara himself joined the wealthy merchants and squeezed out the dead small shipping companies. He knew very well.

"So, what do you think of Sumitomo Yoshi's desire to buy the Kobe Shipyard?"

Since the shipping industry is developing very fast, and you have begun to monopolize the market, are you willing to take over the shipbuilding business?

"The shipbuilding business is excellent, but the shogunate should not appoint only one person."
