清朝与日本的贸易不仅在日本和荷兰的资料中有详细的报道，而且在大量的中文资料中也有报道。本章简要回顾了世纪以来清日交往的情况，特别提到了铜贸易及其与中国造币厂运作的关系。清朝的中国，在将近四十年的时间里，完全依赖于日本的铜来制造货币。在此期间，中国造币厂每年消耗约40，000担铜，全部从日本进口。尽管中国与日本的帆船贸易量大大减少，但它一直持续到世纪中期，当时西方贸易国的活动带来了新的条件，迫使两国关系发生了变化。关键词：清中国;中国造币厂;铜;日本;垃圾贸易;西方贸易国
Ch'ing trade with Japan is well reported not only in familiar Japanese and Dutch sources but in a wealth of Chinese material as well. This chapter assembles a brief survey of the first century of Ch'ing intercourse with Japan, with special reference to the trade in copper and its relationship to the operations of the Chinese mints. Ch'ing China, for a period of nearly forty years, was totally dependent upon Japan for the copper which went into its currency issues. During this period the Chinese mints were consuming about 40,000 piculs of copper annually, all of which was imported from Japan. Though greatly shrunken in volume, the Chinese junk trade with Japan was to endure into the middle of the nineteenth century, when new conditions brought on by the activities of the Western trading nations forced a change in the relationship between the two countries.
