Abstract: Abstract Before delving into this subject, it is particularly worth noting a similar systemic shift that occurred in Dutch–Japanese trade. In 1752, a trading contract was concluded between the VOCVOC (Dutch East India Company) (Dutch East India CompanyDutch East India Company→VOC) and thwe Nagasaki Trading HouseNagasaki Kaisho(長崎会所)→Nagasaki Trading House (Nagasaki Kaisho 長崎会所). In content it was merely a confirmation of the existing trading rules. However, its significance can be seen when viewing the style of transaction, because the VOC was demanded to merely obey the trading rules set by the shogunate previously and, at this time, they not only negotiated with the Japanese officials but also received from them a contract as an agreed-upon certificateCertificate
