"The Tokyo Branch intends to fulfill the contract signed by Manager Wang and the merchant in full!"

While Abe Tadaki was waiting for the Tokyo Branch to lose his reputation because Manager Wang escaped with money, the news came that the Tokyo Branch had acted to protect its credibility and forcibly took all the losses.

"Their Tokyo branch is cruel enough to withstand all losses and maintain a good reputation. Credit is the cornerstone of the bank. Without the cornerstone, everything is not known to start with." Tadao Abe realized the importance of credit to the financial system.

"When they did this, everything we did before was in vain." Another shogunate minister, Nobutsu Matsuhira and Tadao Abe, were in the tea room of the Edo Bank.

Edo Bank was severely damaged after being plotted by Otaku once. Fortunately, Tadao Abe was also a genius, but he did not completely destroy Edo Bank. With the credit of the shogunate and his own network of relationships, he saved Edo Bank back and gradually lost all the market share to restore 20% of the market. Later, Tadao Abe issued a government order as a reformist, requiring Japanese merchants to trade with Chinese merchants through Edo Bank, which was exactly the same as Chinese merchants who had to trade with Tokyo Branch. After all, the number of local Japanese merchants was more. Edo Bank monopolized the trading channels of most Japanese merchants, and the market share rose from 20% to 50%, and confronted the Tokyo Branch again.

The reason why the Tokyo Branch has not yet been in a downturn in the battle with the shogunate is that the Tokyo Branch showed enough credit during the run, making everyone believe that the Tokyo Branch has the ability to deal with the crisis.

"We are not losing money this time. Sacrifice to a Chinese will allow the Kyushu army to suffer losses of tens of thousands or even hundreds of thousands of taels of silver. We will make a profit no matter what." Tadao Abe said indifferently.

As far as the result of this conspiracy is concerned, he has won.

"That Manager Wang is also a gambler. Otherwise, he would not owe us so much loans from Edo Bank, nor would he be driven by us. Unfortunately, there are not many people who can use this, and it is a waste to abandon this piece. He could have used a larger rent, and even defeated the Tokyo branch in one fell swoop." Nobutsu Matsuhira put down the tea set, feeling deeply regretful.

It is not easy for them to penetrate important financial institutions like the Tokyo Branch, and they are afraid that they will be known by the Kyushu Army's upper class. They will lure Manager Wang to make mistakes and then continue to lend money to Edo Bank to achieve the goal of controlling Manager Wang.

"It's nothing to sacrifice a gambling person. I really want to get the Great Demon back. I look forward to confront her head next time. This time, Edo Bank accounts for 50% of the market, and we can compete with each other." Tadao Abe was full of confidence at this time and wanted to let Oyu'er return to the Tokyo branch to have another financial battle with him.

However, Da Yu'er was already a member of the Monetary Policy and Fiscal Policy Committee in Beijing at this time. What she was considering was the monetary policy and fiscal policy that affected the one and twenty provinces in China, and was no longer limited to the confrontation in the financial circles of Edo Castle.

"Behind the Great Demon King is the leader of the Jiuzhou Army supporting her. She has not come back after she was impeached and left our Japan last time. However, many of the merchants who offended her were imprisoned, and a director of the Oriental Company was executed. Those who offended her would not have a good ending. She is really a terrible person, and she is worthy of being called the Great Demon King by us." Nobuo Matsuhira mentioned Da Yu'er and thought about the recent collection of her information.

"The Great Demon must have used some special means to retaliate against these people who offended her. I wonder if there are any other figures in the Kyushu army. Fortunately, although President Qian from the Tokyo Branch is calm, he has no geniuses." Tadaoqiu Abe is also full of fear of Da Yu'er.

If Da Yu'er knew that these two loyal ministers of the shogunate were so afraid of her, she would definitely be amused and crying. It wasn't that she used any means to retaliate, but the merchants smuggled, evaded taxes, and bribed the directors of the Oriental Company, and they were just trying to die.

"If you don't talk about the great devil, she might not be sent here. Now is the second encounter facing our shogunate reform. According to the information collected by my spies, the main force of the Beiyang Fleet led by Zheng Zhilong is helping the King of Goryeo to quell the rebellion and will not be able to get out of here for a while. Currently, there are only a few warships of the Beiyang Fleet in Yokohama Port. Our war faction believes that we should take this opportunity to launch the battle to fight against Osaka again. The rebel bases of the southwestern vassals are in Kyoto and Osaka. If our shogunate army can concentrate our forces to conquer these two cities, the rebel forces will collapse and the Shimazu family will surrender without fighting." Matsuhira Nobutsu announced an extremely important news to Tadao Abe.

"Are you going to fight the decisive battle against the Overthrow Alliance? I have been waiting for this opportunity for a long time. Our Edo Bank will imitate the Kyushu Bank to issue war bonds to raise money for the army. We must resolve our civil strife as soon as possible and gather all the forces that can be gathered to compete with the Kyushu Army." Tadaoqiu Abe agreed with Matsuhira Nobutsu's decision.

"The southwestern vassals delayed us and hindered our change. Our ultimate goal was to establish a unified empire so that we could have enough capital to compete with China. A split empire cannot fight against powerful enemies!" said Nobuka Matsuhira.

"What is the attitude of the shogun?" Asbe Tadaki asked.

"The shogun will personally lead the army and convene more than 100,000 troops from all over the country to surround Osaka Castle. I will lead a 20,000-strong army to move towards Kyoto, dragging at least half of the rebels' forces. We plan to invest all firearms and gunpowder to determine the outcome in one battle!" Matsuhira Nobutsu said sternly.

Tadao Abe was in awe as a conditioned reflex and devoted all his troops and strategic materials to fight the rebels to the death. This time the shogun made up the idea of ​​unifying Japan.

Without the foreign enemy of the Kyushu Army, the shogunate would not have such cohesion, which would unite all the daimyo vassal lords and flags within the shogunate sphere of influence. Japan had a trend of unification for the first time. If the shogunate really defeated the Shogunate coalition in the Osaka formation that was about to be launched, then the provincial system led by the shogunate would be promoted to the entire Japan and establish a complete empire for the first time!

On the contrary, if the shogunate fails, the Shogunate coalition may be pushed to Edo Castle again, and this time the Beiyang Fleet may not help the shogunate.
