The Tokugawa family's samurai controlled the Huaxing Company's fleet, but only restricted the fleet from going to sea, but did not make things difficult for everyone in Huaxing Company.

After all, it was only half a century before the Battle of Wenlu in Changqing, and the majesty of the Ming Dynasty was still there, and the Japanese did not dare to offend Huaxing Company with an official background at will.

Although the Japanese did not do anything to everyone, the ship was seized, which affected the acquisition of raw silk and squeezed out the Japanese textile industry. The previous efforts were completely in vain. Huaxing Company lost at least one million taels of silver.

When the company was first established, it suffered such great losses. I am afraid that shareholders would withdraw their investment and lose confidence in the company, making the company unable to survive and expand.

In addition, the price of raw silk in Japan has risen, which has caused all Japanese vassals to increase the production of raw silk. If Huaxing Company cannot continue to acquire, the price of raw silk will definitely drop. At that time, Japanese silk weaving workshops will inevitably re-produce. Due to the decrease in raw material prices, the products produced by Japanese silk weaving workshops will have an advantage in price. Maybe they can really replace China's silk weaving industry and occupy a share of the maritime silk trade.

In this way, Huaxing Company really shot itself in the foot, and the Dutch could obtain cheaper cloth from Japan than before, and rely more on reducing the price of Ming Dynasty silk.

In Kaga's Imperial House, Wang Jiaqin discussed with Zhou Hezhi and others and discussed the current situation.

Wang Jiaqin said in a deep voice: "The price of raw silk has dropped to 80 taels. We cannot wait for the investigation of the Tokugawa shogunate. We must take the initiative to resolve the current dilemma!"

Chen Yonghua said: "What are your plans?"

Wang Jiaqin said calmly: "Prepare for both hands. The first is to send someone back to Taiwan to send a message. The second is to build up relations and visit the senior officials of the Tokugawa shogunate and try to convince them!"

Zhou Hezhi frowned and said, "It is easy to send someone back to report the news. It is probably not easy to meet the senior officials of the Tokugawa Shogunate. It has to spend some money to manage it. It will be even more difficult to convince the Tokugawa Shogunate."

Chen Yonghua said: "That Kato Eagle is the son of Nagasaki who pursues Kato Masaki. Through him, we can see Kato Masaki first and see the senior management of the Tokugawa family. But how should we convince the Tokugawa family and let the fleet go to sea?"

Wang Jiaqin said confidently: "As long as I can meet the senior management of the Tokugawa family, I am sure to convince them!"

Everyone was a little confused when they saw Wang Jiaqin say this, but Chen Yonghua still clasped his fists and said, "I'll contact Kato Eagle now!"

The next day, in Nagasaki Port, a house near the sea.

Wang Jiaqin and others knelt on the tatami, and the lower female pulled the door open. Kato Eagle, wearing a black samurai uniform, took off her clogs and walked in, still bowing politely: "Wang Sang, Zhou Sang, Kong Nichiwa."

Zhou Hezhi nodded and returned the gift: "Konnichiwa!"

Wang Jiaqin just nodded, then called Kato Eagle to eat sushi, while Zhou Hezhi poured him wine, "Kato, taste the Ming Dynasty wine!"

The three of them sat facing each other. The Japanese used the separate meal system before the Song Dynasty in China. Each of them placed some sushi, sashimi, dried radish, miso soup, white rice. Japanese samurai and nobles did not eat four-legged meat, so there were fewer dishes.

Kato Eagle rubbed his hands excitedly and said, "I'm starting to move." Then he picked up the wine glass and took a sip, and immediately grinned, "Yoxi, Zhou Sang, the wine field is so delicious."

"Kato, your Chinese sir should reflect on it!" Zhou Hezhi said deliberately with a stern face.

However, Kato Eagle was not angry. When the Han culture was strong and constantly exporting culture to the surrounding areas, writing and speaking Chinese were all noble things.

"Gomi Na's!" Kato Eagle was stunned for a moment, then reflected: "Yes! I have always been eager to learn Tang Dynasty, but I have not communicated with friends in Mingguo, so I have not made much progress!"

Wang Jiaqin immediately gave a wink, and Zhou Hezhi quickly put it on him again and smiled and said, "Kato, aren't we friends?"

"Really?" Kato Eagle suddenly saluted happily, "Wang Sang, Zhou Sang, I will ask for my Chinese language in the future!"

Kato Eagle is a child of a Japanese family and his father followed it. He liked Chinese culture since he was a child and was very interested in China.

Now the three of them are eating and chatting, and their relationship is much closer and they become close friends.

At this time, Zhou Hezhi spoke, "Kato, since they are all friends, I have something to ask for!"

Kato Takashi heard the words and put down his chopsticks, but said seriously: "Zhou Sang wants to say that the ship was detained. That was the shogunate direct order. I have no ability to help you." As he said that, he apologized: "Gomi Nashe!"

Wang Jiaqin and Zhou Hezhi couldn't help but look at each other. Kato Eagle drank in a daze, but was still very alert. Although he was very polite and enthusiastic, he was actually very affectionate and indifferent.

Zhou Hezhi said: "We all know these, but our company has actually been framed by the Dutch. Not only did we not harm the interests of the Tokugawa shogunate, we brought huge wealth to the shogunate. We wanted to meet the top leaders of the shogun through Reizun."

"That's it~" Kato Eagle said: "This matter is easy to handle, but it is easy to handle, but it is difficult to handle. Recently, the price of raw silk has soared, and many silk weaving workshops have closed down. Many people have resentment towards Wang Sang and Zhou Sang. Even our Kato family's workshops have also closed down several places. My father is angry about this, and I'm afraid it's hard to say!"

"If it were just because of this, I think I could eliminate the anger that Nagasaki pursued!" Wang Jiaqin said.

Kato Eagle couldn't help but see Wang Jiaqin, "Oh, what's the solution for Wang Sang?"

Wang Jiaqin immediately said: "Opening a workshop and doing business will make a profit and lose money. Kato's silk weaving workshop went bankrupt, but we can't blame our company for purchasing raw silk. You are not good at producing cloth, and the cloth produced is not as good as the Ming Dynasty's cloth, and will sooner or later go bankrupt. This is the result of fair competition. The two companies sell one kind of goods at the same time, one is good at quality and the other is rough and the cost is high, so the latter must be eliminated."

Kato Eagle said in anger: "Wang Sang, are you trying to eliminate your father's anger?"

Wang Jiaqin nodded, "Kun Kato, why do you have to worry about what you are not good at and forget your advantages? Since silk weaving is not profitable and the workshop is closed, why don't you try to produce raw silk? Nowadays, people who produce raw silk are making money."

"Give raw silk?" Kato Eagle wondered.

Wang Jiaqin then smiled and said, "If the Kato family produces and helps Huaxing Company acquire raw silk, I can represent Huaxing Company to purchase raw silk worth 100,000 taels from the Kato family every year. With such a large order, I think it is enough to make up for the losses of the Kato family, which will make you happy."

"One hundred thousand taels a year." A glimmer of light appeared in Kato Hawk's eyes.
