Chapter 789 Tokyo Branch
Chapter 789 Tokyo Branch (fourth update)
The sound of crackling firecrackers sounded, and the city of Edo was very lively. Many warriors and residents gathered in front of a building in the Central Plains to watch.With the beating of gongs and drums, the golden lion dancers tumbled and tumbled, and the white smoke from the firecrackers filled the air. The residents of Edo Castle clapped their hands and applauded from time to time!
Many Chinese merchants have opened shops in Edo Castle. To the residents of Edo Castle, beating gongs, drums and lion dances are not particularly new things, but this time the scale is far greater than the opening of ordinary shops. .
"Kyushu Bank's Tokyo branch will open today. Welcome everyone to come here to make deposits and loans, and the interest is easy to negotiate!" A shopkeeper dressed in silk said to the people present.
"Deposits? Loans, interest? What does that mean?"
"The "Kyushu Daily" published the news of the establishment of the bank a few days ago. It is said that whoever has a lot of silver on hand can store it in the bank. If the deposit is long enough, get back the silver stored there When the time comes, the bank will give extra silver as interest. That is to say, the more silver you put there and the longer the time, the more silver you can earn.”
"What if they lose our silver, or refuse to accept the account afterwards?"
"Idiots, they have the support of the entire Huaxia government behind them, so why can't they provide enough silver for compensation in such a big place?"
The residents of Edo Castle talked a lot, and they were full of curiosity about the mysterious Kyushu Bank.
Among the residents of Edo Castle, three groups were particularly sensitive to the establishment of the Tokyo branch of the Bank of Kyushu.One is the local merchants in Japan, whose trade cannot bypass the Far East Trading Company that controls Chinese commodities and markets, and the other is comprador merchants represented by the aborigines of Yokohama Port.The first two types of people expressed more interest in loans, while the other type was the Tokugawa shogunate. They were not only concerned about the functions of the Kyushu Bank, but also what the Kyushu Army was going to do after the establishment of the Tokyo Academy and the Kyushu Newspaper Office. what the hell.
As one of the local guests invited by the Tokyo branch, Tamura, the president of the Yokohama Trading Company, participated in the opening ceremony of the Tokyo branch.
The Beiyang Fleet forcibly occupied Yokohama Village as a concession, and once gave the fishermen of Yokohama Village a settling allowance, and then the quick-witted fishermen of Yokohama Village acted as a bridge for communication between Japanese merchants and Chinese merchants, and even became famous comprador merchants in the Eastern Kingdom.
Later, under the proposal of the fisherman Tamura, the comprador merchants of Yokohama Village formed the Yokohama Trading Company, which became famous for a while, even in the Edo Castle ruled by the Tokugawa Shogunate, it began to have a lot of influence.
Now no one calls "Fisherman Tamura" anymore, but President Tamura.
Tamura, who was born as a fisherman, was dressed in the most elegant silk in China, and stood behind the president of the Tokyo branch with his head upright, enjoying the envious eyes of everyone.With the support of the father of the Kyushu Army, a big comprador businessman like him has no fear of the warrior class.Because even some middle-level samurai and banners are not as rich as him!
The news of the opening of the Tokyo Branch of the Kyushu Military Bank spread throughout Edo City, causing quite a commotion.
Under the secret instigation of the Tokyo branch, some childcare workers became the first batch of depositors, and thus attracted the first batch of real customers.
Sakai Tadakatsu, Minister of the Tokugawa Shogunate, and several samurai attended the opening ceremony of the Tokyo branch with very complicated feelings.Especially when he saw the comprador businessmen following the president of the Tokyo branch, he couldn't help feeling disgusted with them.
"Tamura, are you getting too close to the Kyushu Army?" Sakai Tadakatsu whispered to Tamura.
"Master Tadakatsu Sakai, what we do is comprador work. Without the support of the Kyushu Army, we will have nothing to eat. Please be considerate." President Tamura smiled.
"Aren't you afraid that the general will blame you?" Sakai Tadakatsu threatened.
"Sir Sakai Tadakatsu, what are you talking about? If it weren't for us comprador merchants to promote the trade between the two sides, how could China's industrial products flow into our Dongpu continuously? I heard that Sakai Tadakatsu bought Kyushu The army’s kerosene lamps, and you want to spend a lot of money to buy bicycles from the Kyushu army, why don’t you reflect on yourself first?” Tamura Yinyang said strangely.
Tadakatsu Sakai was left speechless by what a fisherman said.Although he was very worried about the economic invasion of the Kyushu Army, but Huaxia's products were indeed novel and practical enough that he, an important minister of the shogunate, could not escape the law of true fragrance.
"Master Sakai, why do Chinese people always like to refer to our Edo Castle as Tokyo?" a bannerman next to Tadakatsu Sakai asked in confusion.
"Maybe they want to use our Edo Castle as an important area in the east of them. Their plan is not small, but we have nothing to do." Tadakatsu Sakai gritted his teeth.
It would be fine if Tadakatsu Sakai did not discover the ambition of the Kyushu Army, but the problem is that even if he discovered the ambition of the opponent, there was no suitable countermeasure, which made Tadakatsu Sakai aggrieved!No matter what diplomatic strategy the shogunate adopts, as long as the Beiyang Fleet stationed in Yokohama Port threatens to attack Edo Castle, the shogunate must bow its head.The Beiyang Fleet stationed in Yokohama Port is like a sharp knife hanging over the head of the Tokugawa shogunate. Before making any decision, the shogunate must look up to see if the sharp knife will fall.
On the same day that the Tokyo branch of Kyushu Bank opened, the iron-clad steamship "Yongchang" brought a special team.
Zheng Zhilong, the commander of the Beiyang Fleet and the highest person in charge stationed in Dongying, came to greet them in person with soldiers in casual clothes.
"General Zheng, why did you come here in person?" A woman who disembarked with a suitcase was a little surprised when she saw Zheng Zhilong.
"Missy came to a place like Dongpu, I am afraid that the military master has taken action against Dongpu. As the person in charge here, of course I must do my best to be a landlord. Why don't you guys help Missy carry her luggage?" Zheng Zhilong stared I lost sight of the accompanying men following Da Yuer, thinking that these people are really doomed to be single...
"Senior sister doesn't let us help, and we can't help it." Said the economics student who came with Da Yuer.
When Zheng Zhilong heard these people call Da Yuer senior sister, he didn't find it awkward. He also spent a period of time in the Academy of Sciences, and knew that the juniors had changed the names of the seniors.Since they called Da Yuer senior sister, Da Yuer entered the Academy of Sciences earlier than them, even though Da Yuer might be the youngest among them all.
"I have already arranged your accommodation in the Yokohama Port Concession, and later the senior officials of the Beiyang Fleet and the Far East Trading Company Branch will take care of you." Zheng Zhilong said.
