Chapter 1806 I hate separation, please give it a try
The Spo family’s unquantifiable economic strength actually lies in finance.
Ancient finance was nothing more than loan sharking or reselling precious metals to earn the price difference.
As early as the Kamakura shogunate period, Dokura appeared in Kyoto, the earliest financial practitioners in the island country. These people specialized in managing idle funds for Kyoto's powerful people.
During the Ashikaga shogunate period, the shogunate even issued special provisions stipulating loan time limits and loan interest rates to regulate the business of soil warehouses.
Investing idle funds in loans has prospered the commodity economy, but the scale of this primitive finance has never increased because of frequent wars.
Lending and credit are closely related. The chaos during the war caused heavy losses to the lending industry. Tucang would rather bury gold and silver in the ground than take it out for loans, for fear of losing everything.
And the Spo family's first pot of gold came from exactly this.
Taking advantage of the Tokura manager's fear of not being able to repay the loan, Takada Yono used the Shiba family's reputation as a guarantee to absorb a large amount of Tokura's funds at a low price, and established the Hokuriku Road trade route.
If it were limited to this, the Sibo family's strength could still be calculated, because the industrial and commercial income was within Shigao's calculation model.
The development that followed went beyond the imagination of the island nation's martial arts families.
Takada Yono was extremely talented, and he learned the financial methods of the Nanman people, especially the Orchid people, at Sakai Port, and he completely let himself go.
The emergence of Siba food stamps anchored the value of food stamps through Hokurikudo Trading Road stocks and Siba real estate, and created the Siba food stamp financial system.
Coupled with the follow-up Sibo Tucang, the use of reverse repurchase of food stamps, fixed deposit interest and other methods to recycle excess food stamps on the market further stabilized the currency value of food stamps.
These financial methods of Takada Harano are very different from the ancient lending industry, and they are already within the scope of coinage rights.
Although everyone is engaged in finance, one is the big-headed son and the other is the small-headed father. It is impossible to tell that they are father and son.
The concept of banknotes is not new. Banknotes were issued during the Song and Ming dynasties. However, due to the indiscriminate issuance of banknotes without anchors, they were forced to be used in market transactions, resulting in rapid depreciation of banknotes.
The market has its own cycle, and the government cannot change economic laws just by farting.
Stabilizing currency value means stabilizing people's hearts, which requires anchors of real money and silver, as well as a credit system built with integrity and confidence.
Takada Haruno plays a financial game of ten pots and nine lids. Before the capital chain is broken, there is no upper limit to the economic strength of the Shiba family in theory.
Because production and consumption are the core of taxation, there is a concept of turnover rate. The more turnover, the more times it is taxed.
For example, rice produced in agriculture will be resold a few times before entering people's stomachs, and the turnover times are the lowest. The same is true for salt, beans, radishes, etc.
The turnover of goods is higher, such as cloth, candles and other daily necessities, or even luxury goods, which can be resold more times, have more turnover links, and generate more tax burdens.
Currency is the fastest-turning currency. Food stamps from the Spo family are constantly used, and every exchange between buyers and sellers is a turnover, creating a large number of usage scenarios and friction costs.
The greater the turnover, the greater the amount of currency required, which is equivalent to giving the Spo family the opportunity to continuously collect seigniorage.
As long as this financial game does not collapse, the Spoels can theoretically drain the entire island nation's economic power for their own use.
Of course, this is just theory.
Even if a country is as financially powerful as a lighthouse, it is impossible to really drain away all the funds, because credit will definitely collapse before the theoretical value reaches its limit.
Credit is the heart of the people. When the ship is about to sink, people's first reaction is to jump off the ship. How can they wait calmly until the last moment?
In the entire island nation, perhaps the only modern person like Yoshigami who can understand what Takada Harano is doing is Yoshigami.
But Yiyin, a modern man, has never been engaged in the financial industry before. At most, he has gone to a bank to save money. In fact, he only knows a little about it.
As a result, an interesting current situation emerged. The martial arts families in the world did not understand how much mobilization power the Shiba family had, and Yiyin himself did not know how much wealth he had.
Only Takada Harano knew in his heart that Pond's Financial, which was left-handed and right-handed, was about to explode. He had to find a scapegoat to clean up the situation and start over.
Although Yoshihiro couldn't see through it, he had a vague premonition in his heart, so he had to firmly grasp the money printing machine of Ashio Copper Mountain.
Whether it's Kanto or Kinki, he has too many bastards under him, and they all have their own little plans.
At this time, there is no one you can rely on, only the copper coins in your hand are the most reliable.
After deciding on the name Shunmei Tongbao, Ina Chuji bowed and said goodbye.
She also knew that the saint was about to leave Kanto and would not have much time to spend with women and children. If she disturbed him too much at this time, she would offend him.
As soon as Ina Chuji left, Yoshigan stood up and went behind the screen. He saw Shima Shengmeng finishing feeding the child, holding the child in one hand, and inconveniently getting dressed with the other hand.
Yiyin stared at the half-revealed skirt of his clothes for a long time, which made Dao Shengmeng's hands tremble and he couldn't button the buttons several times.
Yiyin smiled slightly, took the initiative to cover his clothes with his palms, rubbed them a few times, and then reluctantly buttoned them up for Shima Sheng.
"I'll leave tomorrow morning and won't come over."
Dao Shengmeng, who looked ashamed, heard these words. Although he had been prepared in his heart, he still couldn't help but trembled.
She was silent for a moment and sighed.
"Have a safe journey."
Yiyin traced the corner of the child's mouth with his finger and wiped away the milk foam she had spit out. Then he lowered his head and kissed the corner of Dao Shengmeng's mouth. He turned to leave, but was pulled back by Dao Shengmeng.
Daosheng lowered his head suddenly, blushing, holding the child with one hand, holding the bra tightly with the other hand, and whispered softly.
"Yesterday you said that the child ate so deliciously and wanted to try it. I...I agreed..."
Yiyin's eyes widened. He didn't expect that Dao Shengmeng would agree to anything just to keep him one more night.
After swallowing his saliva, Yiyin touched his nose. After all, he couldn't stand the desire in his heart and said embarrassedly.
"Then I'll stay in your courtyard tonight."
The blush on Dao Shengmeng's face extended to his neck, as bright as a rose.
"I'll go back to the courtyard to have dinner prepared and wait for you to come over."
Dao Shengmeng walked out with the child in his arms, his steps staggering a little, his heart beating like a rabbit, and he secretly cursed himself for using sex with someone, how shameless.
Yiyin looked worriedly at her walking out and couldn't help shouting.
"Walk more carefully and be careful with the kids."
Shima Katsuo didn't know if he heard it or not. Anyway, when he went out, he almost bumped into the Kamao clan who came to meet you.
After the two saluted, they crossed each other, and Shima Sheng walked away in a hurry. Kamao Shigo watched her go away, with a calm expression on her face, showing no trace of her thoughts.
Yiyin followed him out of the room and stood on the porch, watching Dao Shengmeng in the distance carefully, fearing that she would stumble and drop the child.
