Relative Trade Law - Aitaibouekiho

Japanese: 相対貿易法 - あいたいぼうえきほう

Trading methods for Nagasaki trade from 1655 to 1671 (Meireki 1 to Kanbun 11). With the abolition of the itowarifu system, merchants other than the itowarifu nakama, who had previously been excluded, were now able to determine prices directly (relatively) with foreign parties, including white thread, and trade. However, rising prices due to auctions and the outflow of large amounts of silver became problems for the shogunate, and preparations were made for the Municipal Trade Law, including the export of gold, copper, copper coins, and furnace slag, the designation of prohibited items for import and export, strengthened entry and exit regulations, and a ban on buying out. [Nakamura Shigeto]

1655‐71年(明暦1‐寛文11)の長崎貿易の取引方法。糸割符制の廃止により，それまで排除されていた糸割符仲間以外の商人でも，白糸を含めて外国側と直接(相対に)値段を決めて取引できるようになった。しかし，せり買いによる価格騰貴，大量の銀流出が幕府の問題とするところとなり，金･銅･銅銭･炉滓（ろかす）の輸出，輸出入禁制品指定，入出港規制の強化，買占め禁止など，市法貿易法への準備がなされた。【中村質】
