I started with the Shinsengumi in Bakumatsu

Chapter 246 A Qian is here

After the incident in Osaka was settled, many wealthy businessmen suffered heavy losses and had no choice but to sell them at low prices. Several major national companies came forward to acquire the land at market prices.

The use rights of these lands are in the hands of the state-owned company, but they are still handed over to the municipal government for unified planning, and all the previous buildings will be demolished and rebuilt.

At the same time, Fifth Generation Tomohiro came to Osaka City as a representative of the Ministry of Finance and met with the Mayor of Osaka.

After the two exchanged pleasantries in the office, they sat down separately. Godai Tomohiro said: "This time Osaka businessmen suffered heavy losses. Such a painful lesson is enough to make businessmen everywhere restrain themselves.

However, many people in the country still hold on to their previous ideas, and the cabinet decided to continue to teach Osaka businessmen some lessons to let them know that times have changed. "

The mayor of Osaka nodded quickly and said, "My Lord Godai, just give me your orders."

Godai Youhou said: "In the past, due to the times, many things were done in the name of the imperial court, and later they were accepted and operated by national companies.

Now that the Prime Minister has solved the country's environmental problems, the domestic economy also needs a relatively relaxed environment. Some things will be relaxed and some things will be tightened.

This time, in addition to infrastructure construction, the national company will also add a national grain company to ensure people's livelihood. In addition, the cabinet has previously had ideas to liberalize the mining industry, commercial banks, etc., and these will start in Osaka. "

The mayor of Osaka is quite happy. The benefits of these industries are not small. Once they are liberalized, they will definitely promote Osaka's economy, which will make his political performance even better.

"I'm A Qian's friend. I came to see her today."

Fifth Generation Youhou couldn't help but praise: "Aqian, although you are a woman, you have really good vision. Many people in these two industries have taken a liking to you."

"Okay, I'll wait for the good news from Godai-sama."

A Qian immediately entered the room in the backyard.

Godai Tomohiro got off the rickshaw and came to the front of Kanoya. The waiter at the door looked at Godai Tomohashi in suits and leather shoes and thought he was a guest. He immediately greeted him warmly: "Guest, we have a lot of business here, and you will definitely be satisfied."

While they were chatting, Asa took the maid back to Kanoya. The waiter told Asa that a man named Tomohiro Godai came to see her.

A Qian was very excited.

Ah Qian frowned and said, "Then I have no chance?"

Fifth Generation Youhou said solemnly: "Aqian, the opportunity for businessmen has come. The Prime Minister has decided to open some nationally exclusive businesses to the citizens."

Godai Yuhou said casually.

Yansuke asked cautiously: "Mr. Godai should be an official of the new government, right?"

The mayor of Osaka nodded and said: "Don't worry, Godai-sama, we in Osaka City will definitely cooperate with each other."

A Qian sat across from Godai Yuhou and said, "Mr. Godai, why do you have time to come to my place?"

Yansuke nodded quickly, took out the shoes at the entrance and handed them to Godai Tomohou and said, "Yes, after Mrs. Asa went to the Central Bank to see it, she took advantage of the opportunity of reconstruction to convince the family owner."

Fifth Generation Youhou stood up and said: "Okay, I'm going to see an old friend. We will have a meeting to discuss how to do it specifically."

"Yes, this matter is related to what I am responsible for."

"I'm not here to do business."

The guy was a little surprised. This person looked so young, and so did the boss's wife. He couldn't be a childhood sweetheart, right?

He didn't dare to delay, and quickly shouted inside: "Dafantou, come and take a look, there is a gentleman here who knows Mrs. Aqian!"

However, Kanoya was saved because he did not participate in this operation.

Godai Tomohiro's words made the guy less enthusiastic, but his next words surprised him.

Tomohou Godai left the city hall and immediately hailed a rickshaw when he reached the street and said, "Go to Kanoya in Tosabori River."

The rickshaw master threw the towel over his shoulder and immediately pulled the rickshaw away.

"Mr. Godai!"

A moment later, Godai Tomohiro arrived in front of Kanoya.

The Kanoya on the edge of the Tosabori River has been rebuilt and its signboard has been put up.

"Ah? Do you know Mrs. A Qian?"

Nowadays, branches of the Central Bank have opened in various cities, and Osaka is no exception. The operation of the two houses is becoming increasingly difficult, and they are all looking for opportunities to change.

"I have paid attention to the coal and iron business. This will definitely make money. It's a pity that this is a national exclusive business."

Godai Youhou smiled and said: "What are you worried about? Don't you still have me? I will help you.

Kanoya is very well-known in Osaka. It used to be a Ryodaiya, also known as a bank.

"Aqian."

However, after the new government was established and the central bank was established, the government conducted accounting for all second-hand houses and established banking regulations to regulate the second-hand houses.

The fifth generation Youhou walked into the second house. The furnishings and layout were no longer that of a Japanese-style house, but rather resembled the layout of a central bank.

Yansuke hurriedly walked out and took a look. He was a little surprised and greeted quickly: "Ah, it's Mr. Godai. It's been a long time. Please come in. Mrs. Aqian has gone out and will be back in a moment."

"Really!"

"Okay, please have your guests seated."

The fifth generation friend smiled thickly and said: "Aqian has always been very creative. I came here this time to tell her a good thing."

He must have raised his hand in welcome.

Yansuke was secretly happy, now Kanaya would be prosperous!

He turned around and asked, "Is this A Qian's idea?"

During this wave, many small and medium-sized rental houses went bankrupt.

In addition, commercial banks are about to open up. Although the business of Liangdaiwu is a bit different from that of commercial banks, you have the foundation and there is no big problem. "

A Qian didn't expect the surprises today. She seemed to have thought of something and said, "Is it because of the New Testament that the government will change the business environment?"

"Well, that's true."

Fifth generation friend Hou appreciates A Qian even more.

"In the past, the Prime Minister was worried that businessmen would defect to countries such as Britain and France for profit, so they kept most of the important industries in the hands of the state. Now that our country has achieved true independence, we no longer have to worry about these problems, so we will gradually open up. .”

"As expected of the Prime Minister, you are really far-sighted."

A Qian said with some longing.

"I think the Prime Minister is definitely a genius in business. Many Osaka businessmen went bankrupt this time.

I was laughed at when I attended a gathering of businessmen in Osaka. These people really did what the Prime Minister thought, and they really did not care about anything just to make money. "

"Fortunately, A Qianqian didn't do this."

Godai Tomohou said. "This time I come to preside over the business in Osaka City to support a group of law-abiding businessmen as national representatives."

A Qian smiled confidently and said with shining eyes: "Did Mr. Godai choose me?"

"Yes, not only you, I also need more businessmen like this."

Godai Youhou is outspoken.

A Qian was very happy. This reminded her of her sister A Chu. A Chu's husband's family was the Meishan family of Tennoji House, a big businessman in Kyoto. However, due to the turmoil at the end of the Tokugawa period, Tennoji House had completely declined and was suppressed by the new government represented by Yagyu Heiyan. Go down.

A Qian thought that she could help her sister A Chu.

"Thank you, Mr. Godai."

Ah Qian sincerely thanks.

"Get ready now, I'll go back first."

Godai Tomohiro stood up and left, and when he was going out, he happened to see Asa's husband Shirakawa Shinjiro.

"Shinjiro, long time no see."

Godai Youhou was the first to say hello.

Shirooka Shinjiro said a little unnaturally: "It's Mr. Godai, why are you here?"

Godai Youhou smiled and said: "I talked about some things with Aqian. I have something else to do, so I will leave first."

"Ok."

Shirooka Shinjiro watched Godai Yuhou leave, then entered the room, sat down and asked, "What did he say when he came to you?"

Ah Qian covered her mouth and smiled, and said narrowly: "Haha, what do you think?"

"What are you talking about and you still want me to guess!"

Shirooka Shinjiro couldn't hold himself any longer and was a little agitated.

A Qian then coaxed: "You idiot, what are you thinking? Mr. Godai is here to talk about business matters. I told my father-in-law before about the bank, and the government will let it go soon."

Shirooka Shinjiro was visibly relieved.

"That's right, what do you think?"

Shinjiro Shirooka was naturally not as good as A Qian in business, and besides, A Qian was in charge of everything at home, so he directly asked A Qian for her opinion.

Ah Qian's eyes shone and said: "I think it's great, and it's not just that, we can expand into other industries!"

Shirooka Shinjiro did not have the courage and vision of A Qian, and he was very worried. He immediately advised: "Isn't this too risky? Since the two-person house is similar to a bank, then can't we just do the bank's work well? ?This is the industry that Kanoya understands best.

As for other industries, we have no experience. If we enter other industries rashly, the risk will be too great. "

Ah Qian disagreed and said bluntly: "I have learned about some of the businesses of the National Central Bank. Although the Central Bank collects people's savings and pays interest instead, it seems like a loss, but in fact, the Central Bank has many business projects. .

In the past few years, I have learned carefully that they can lend money to the people at lower interest rates than ours, and even this small amount of money cannot cover the expenses.

But this is not the only income of banks. Banks will invest in profitable industries, so that they can earn a lot of money. This is one of the main incomes of banks.

And what we have to do is the same, using savers’ money to invest in industries we are optimistic about. "

The more Shinjiro Shiraioka listened, the more frightened he became. He immediately stopped him and said, "This is absolutely not possible. What if we lose money? If depositors find out, they will run. Have you forgotten the previous run? If not, With the help of Tamari-sama from Nagoya, Kanaya will be finished.”

Ah Qian argued with reason: "Husband, I was the one who persuaded Mr. Yuli that time. Don't worry. If I dare to do it, it means that I am sure. Don't worry, there will be no problem."

When Shirooka Shinjiro saw A Qian's insistence, he could only say: "I will think about this matter again."

……

Godai Yuhou was not in a hurry to launch new economic activities. This new economic movement was carried out in conjunction with the new urban area of ​​Osaka City.

According to Yagyu's instructions, once the Osaka New Urban model is successful, it will be promoted nationwide as a national policy.

Shibusawa Eiichi made great efforts in this matter, and his idea was to develop a free economy.

However, Yagyu knew the shortcomings of a free economy. He listened to some suggestions from Shibusawa Eiichi and relaxed some business restrictions, but he did not give in on national macro-control.

Therefore, Shibusawa Eiichi argued with Yagyu Hien about the free economy. He felt that only a free business environment can allow businessmen to create a lot of wealth. Moreover, there are too many national companies and a lot of money is earned by the country. This not only affects domestic The business environment will also make private business more depressed.

But Yagyu Heiyan immediately retorted: "A free business environment must be within a framework and must not grow disorderly or barbarically.

The state must monitor and regulate, so that when the entire economic environment collapses, the state can take action to solve the problem.

Besides, as someone who has traveled to the West to study, you should see the faces of those capitalists. Many people are able to sell out the interests of the country for their own profits.

Shibusawa, the rise of Japan is because these greedy capitalists betrayed the interests of their own country, so we have the opportunity to rise.

We will be grateful to such people, but we must never allow such people to appear in our country.

Industries that affect the country's economic lifeline must not be left to capitalists, otherwise they will dare to do horrific things for the sake of profits. "

Shibusawa Eiichi wanted to defend the businessmen, but Yagyu Hiyan gave an example of the food problem, which left him speechless, and finally agreed with Yagyu Hiyan's statement.

In this time of opening up restrictions, most industries are not necessities, and it is difficult to be like food, because price fluctuations have a great impact on national lives.

This kind of policy makes Shibusawa Eiichi, Kido Takayoshi and others think that it is different from the policies of European and American countries.

But after searching their own knowledge reserves, they felt that there had never been such a policy before, and it seemed familiar and confusing.

Shibusawa Eiichi asked Yagyu Heiyan why he was like this.

Yagyu just said: "The national conditions are different, and the policies for governance are different. We cannot copy them mechanically, but must choose policies that suit the national conditions."

Shibusawa Eiichi can be regarded as understanding some of Yagyu Hiden's political ideas. He feels that Japan has gradually risen precisely because of Yagyu Hiden's political ideas.

Shibusawa Eiichi no longer opposed Yagyu's economic policies. After careful understanding, Godai Youhou also followed Yagyu's economic policies.

Of course, Fifth Generation Youhou is still worried about the suppression of private companies by state-owned companies.

Fortunately, the projects operated by the national company are exclusive, and there will be no situation that Wudai Youhou is worried about.

Tomohiro Godai is still investigating the business environment in Osaka to understand the specific situation, and the new urban area in Osaka City is also stepping up its construction time.

The mayor and his people patrol the construction site every day and supervise the construction team to work.

He said: "It must be completed according to quality and quantity, I will check them one by one!"
