On October 25, 1863, in order to promote the resolution of the Shimonoseki shelling incident as soon as possible, Naohide came to the door to send money, but he didn't expect Oguri Tadashun to want it.

What should I do with this friend Tsundere? Waiting online, it's in a hurry.

In front of him, Naoxiu befriended him, and took out the timepiece in his arms produced in the north to remind his friends:

"We're in this together!

It is with your great help that I am where I am today. And the ambition of you and me to revive the shogunate, that has not changed.

Now, we have to join forces. ”

But this eased the atmosphere, after Naohide said that he wanted to advance money for Changzhou, Xiao Li was provoked again, and he was still the first sentence:

"What do you say? military affairs, its own regulations; You do not distinguish between public and private, and you exceed your duty! ”

It means that you were entrusted by Satsuma and Choshu to come to turn around the relationship between Edo and Choshu, why is this? Hurry up and take the stinky money away!

Naoxiu knows that Oguri is jealous:

"It's reasonable to turn around, this Satsuma and the white lord are sons and daughters, and they have human relations, and no one is a god who can not eat the fireworks of the world.

But you took the initiative to ask for an advance, Lao Tie is too much. ”

Although Naohide said earlier that the details such as the amount of compensation were obtained from Takasugi Haru, he heard that the resolution of the Shimonoseki shelling incident was currently stuck on paying money, so he generously donated money.

But the question is, can you inquire from Takasugi of the Choshu Domain, why don't you come and consult with me Oguri first?

This is a big problem related to the difference between inside and outside, close and close, your straight elbow, don't fold it!

But Oguri Tadashun said so, but he was a little inward-looking, and Naohide couldn't see it - when he first heard that Naohide was coming, he was going to walk away.

Naoxiu smiled secretly while explaining to his good friend:

"Wronged!

Where do I want to relieve the siege of Choshu, in fact, this money, I am ready to support my own shogunate. ”

It turned out that Naohide set up a chain set, he first gave the money to the shogunate, and then the shogunate paid for Choshu, and Choshu could pay it back slowly.

The advantage of this handling is that the Shimonoseki shelling incident can be resolved smoothly, not to mention, the shogunate can still maintain the demeanor of the leading brother, and Koguri, who handled this matter, can also be a "capable minister" by the way.

"Dead ghost, you didn't say it earlier!"

Naoxiu is waiting for this sentence, this Oguri tsundere failed, and the picture must be quite beautiful.

But Oguri doesn't play cards according to common sense:

"How did you get such a large sum of money?!"

According to the latest agreement on the shelling of Shimonoseki, the amount of compensation is 200,000 pounds - in fact, there is still a consultation fee of 50,000 yuan, but this matter is top secret, and the Changzhou side is not heard of at all, and Naohide can only pretend not to know about it.

200,000 pounds, which is equivalent to 104,000 Wanyan small judgment, and what is the height of the white lord Matsudaira's watch, but only 50,000 stones, therefore, no matter how you calculate it, Naohide should not be able to take out this money!

Even if prices are soaring now and the money is worthless, the white lord has to pay a donation of 30,000 yuan a year, and now there are still 1,000 soldiers and horses in Yokohama to help with military service, so even if the white lord does not eat or drink, he will not be able to come up with this money in theory.

After all, Wanhachi (bragging) also has to conform to the laws of the samurai.

"You're right. As for this money, it really doesn't belong to the White Lord Matsudaira's family. ”

Zhongshun's father Zhonggao listened stupidly on the side, this son and Zhixiu are a pair of friends, and they are getting more and more confused.

As for Oguri Tadashun, he sneered slightly, didn't ask, and quietly watched Naoxiu's performance.

Naoxiu explained to him:

As for this money, since Satsuma is going to come out, the Shimazu family will definitely have to bear some of it.

However, the Shimazu family was also reluctant to rob the shogunate

's limelight, so it was transferred by the white lord, but the shogunate was private, and he definitely had to compensate the Shimazu family.

The five bigwigs were in an uproar before, but there is still no conclusion. Now that Satsuma is so loyal, people occupy a position, isn't it too much?

People seek tigers and tigers and tigers, this is the proper meaning of the question.

And in the innovation plan that Oguri is promoting, the Shimazu family is also an important part, so Oguri nodded, meaning that this can be had, please continue to fight.

The amount of this indemnity is so huge, and it will be delivered within a year and a half, so surely the Shimazu family does not have the strength - and even if it is taken out, the shogunate is unwilling to pay in advance, why should Satsuma be such a big wrongdoer.

For this one hundred and forty thousand gold, Oguri estimates that it would be good if Satsuma can give half of it, and as for the rest, he will wait to see how Naohide explains.

"On the Choshu side, you can take out 200,000 yuan in cash, and now Satsuma promises to bear a part of it, so our Tokugawa family can't be stingy."

Empty gloves white wolf, who is with you, our family!

Oguri was directly angry:

The three families of the Shogunate, Satsuma, and Choshu paid for it, and your white lord Matsudaira family didn't say anything, and he was ready to make a good fortune!

Zhonggao also frowned on the side, he didn't think that Naoxiu would be a dime, but even if the white master made a small part, the sincerity was not enough, did he see Naoxiu wrong? Now that he has become a tongue-in-cheek, can't he?

"No matter how much Choshu and Satsuma produce, this one million and forty thousand, I will show it straight to the bottom!"

Zhonggao and Zhongshun were taken aback, the two families are good friends, Zhixiu dares to say so, if he can't do it, then the friendship between each other will be completely over!

"Moreover, the money of Changzhou and Satsuma should not be handed over to foreigners, and it is better to invest all of it in the cultivation industry."

Shocked, completely shocked, Xiao Li and his son looked at each other, what does this mean, is it possible that the compensation is not paid, and Naoxiu tends to continue to talk nonsense or even start fighting?

Of course, that's not what Naoxiu meant.

He straightened his back, and finally uttered the earth-shattering words:

"This one hundred and forty thousand gold, I showed it all!"

His clear voice echoed in the roof of the house; His high-spirited posture broke the hearts of everyone present.

There were a total of four people present at this time, Oguri father and son, Naohide and Ryoma.

Many years later, it was Ryoma's turn to govern Fusang, when the people were extravagant, wealthy businessmen and wealthy, Ryoma was quite disdainful of this, and once he said that he leaked his mouth when he was drunk:

"What is this? If you want to say that you are richer, it must be my master, he is rich, too rich! ”

The reason why Naohide gave Ryoma this impression was this meeting, when Naohide promised to pay all the compensation, and he paid 200,000 pounds by himself!

Actually, Naoxiu really didn't think there was anything about it:

It is only 200,000 pounds, which is equivalent to 600,000 taels of Chinese silver.

According to the Study of the Modern Aristocracy in Modern England, on page 131, the standard of income for each class in 1803 was hereditary nobility in the House of Lords, with an average annual income of 8,000 pounds; From the baron, the average annual income is 3,000 pounds.

And today's England, after the industrial revolution, the strength has increased greatly, and now the 200,000 pound sterling rich cannot be said to abound, and that is a lot - referring to total assets, not cash.

Another example is Naoxiu's partner in the United States, the Vanderbilt family, when the old Vanderbilt died in 1877, the assets were claimed to be over 100 million, that is, assets of more than 20 million pounds.

To put it bluntly, now that we have entered the industrial age, the accumulation of wealth is quite rapid:

In 1652, the total tax revenue of China was 24.38 million taels, and the total tax revenue of England was 6.93 million taels.

In 1766, the total financial expenditure of the British began to be higher than that of the Chinese; In 1791, the total tax revenue of the British began to surpass that of the Chinese.

In 1849, the total tax revenue of China and Britain was 37 million taels and 165,300,000 taels respectively, and the British were 4.47 times that of China; in the same year, 1849, the financial expenditure of the British government was twice that of China.

In 1853 alone, England's exports to rice and Australia totaled 38.2 million pounds!

From this point of view, not only is the result of the Battle of Yarrow not surprising, but the strength of the Western powers against East Asia at that time was also due to strength.

Therefore, two hundred thousand pounds is a small amount.

The estimated income of this year's Northland (Hakodate Kahakuro) is also as much as £870,000 if you don't count the Lady Atoka's legacy.

Of course, Beidi is still in the investment stage, even if the relics are added, the net income is negative, so the 200,000 can only be paid by Zhixiu himself.

Anyway, Naoxiu picked it up.

Over the years, the power of the Naoxiu family in Beimi, with the violent expansion of the Vanderbilt family, it is really profitable.

Especially in 1861, when the war between the north and the south of the rice people was sold, it was even more financial.

200,000 is trivial, being rich is so arrogant.

Therefore, Naohide told Oguri that the shogunate doesn't have to pay a penny for the 200,000 pounds indemnity, and you can use the money paid by Satsuma and Choshu to engage in breeding and industrial development!

Oguri gritted her back molars and told me that there was still 50,000 yuan in consultation fees.

With a wave of his hand, according to the words of the Northland, "one horse is also rushed, and two horses are also released", all of them are mine!

"Is it about money?"

The two of them are breezy and light, but the old family owner can't stand it, is this painting style too strange now?

Naohide told Oguri that he had some industries overseas, and now he has benefited well, and he can use them to support the shogunate, and his son Oguri looks like he should be, what the hell is this.

This is the point, even if it is not placed on the top of Naoxiu's overseas industry, Ke'er smashes it, my father, you received Naoxiu's money, how do you explain it to the shogunate?

Straight to say that this is Zhixiu's money, then it definitely won't work; If you don't say it directly, it's even more - can't you say that you can't pick it up?

But Zhonggao gritted his teeth and was stunned.

Why?

Because it's too late to say anything more:

The son Zhongshun is determined to reform the shogunate, but now it is difficult to ride a tiger, and there is no way back!

If this doesn't work, it's still good to die, and if the innovation fails, it's almost the same as Oguri's broken bones.

Therefore, Naoxiu is willing to take out such a sum of money, which is to clearly stand on the side of his friends - it doesn't matter if the money is not money, the force and relationship in the north are much more important than money.

Why does Chunggo think this?

It's not the facts yet:

It turned out that Oguri returned from Europa in December of last year and began to prepare for the submission of "Fuso Breeding Industry and Industrial Development and Prosperity".

The draft of this suggestion is actually from the English, although the foreign owner has a loud voice, but the key is that this monk is far away, so it is inevitable that he will not be able to see the flowers clearly in the fog.

Everyone has never tried this plan, and they are afraid that they will implement it rashly and end up with a paper talk.

Therefore, this proposal needs to be revised and improved.

At that time, Chunggao was immediately angry when he found out, and he said:

"It's a fallacy! As long as he lives, he will not want to do it! ”

Innovate and innovate, eliminate the evils, spit out the old and embrace the new!

How many people are going to be offended here, and there are a few innovative ones that can end well since ancient times.

But then Chungko didn't speak—because he found out that it was a big picture, and Chungshun was just a knife. And the knife, can it decide its own fate?!
