Popis: | The Treaty of Kyakhta signed in 1728 has not only political significance, but also commercial significance for the Qing Dynasty and Russia. The signing of the Treaty of Kyakhta has legalized private transactions between the Qing Dynasty and Russian businessmen prior to that date through official recognition. At the same time, it also means the establishment of Kyakhta’s intermediary status in trade between the Qing Dynasty and Russia and even Europe as a whole. The development of Kyakhta trade is analyzed in this article through the changes of Kyakhta trade management methods by the Qing Dynasty government in the 18th and 19th centuries, as well as the characteristics of the merchants and commodities of the Kyakhta border trade during this period. |
