1853年3月,太平天国定都天京后,与外国人的接触日益增多,随之,对外贸易也日渐活跃起来。在太平天国对外贸易中,输出贸易以生丝、茶叶、棉花为大宗,输入贸易则以军火、粮食为大宗。前者学者多有较详的论述,而后者由于史料的零星与缺乏,则论述不多。本文不揣浅陋,就视野所及的太平天国资料,对这个问题试作探讨。 In March 1853, after the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom was capitalized in Beijing, the number of contacts with foreigners was on the increase. As a result, foreign trade has also become increasingly active. In the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom’s foreign trade, exports of raw silk, tea, and cotton were bulk commodities, while imports were sold in the form of arms and foodstuffs. The former scholars have more elaborate expositions, while the latter because of the sporadic and lack of historical data, then not much discussion. This article does not humble the shallow, as far as horizon depends on the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom, on this issue for trial discussion.
