 The Japanese in Ayudhya in the first half of the 17th century
This was the case of Yamada Nagamasa, who became famous in Ayudhya as warrior but had a successful career as merchant as well.
We do not know what circumstances convinced Nagamasa to leave Japan, but one of the renditions of his life offers credible motives that are worth being considered, since similar stories might have induced many young Japanese to leave their country in those early days of the Tokugawa period.
In January 1630, Nagamasa, obedient to his superiors, led a combined force of 300 Japanese and 3,000 or 4,000 Siamese to Ligor, where he quelled the insurgence and became the governor of the region.

In 1600, Nagamasa and his army of retainers, were awarded the province of Chikuzen, located on the northern coast of Kyushu, as a reward for services rendered in the battle of Sekigahara, in which Tokugawa Ieyasu and his supporters defeated Ishida Mitsunari and the supporters of Hideyoshi's heir, gaining control over the entire country.
In any event, Nagamasa's son Tadayuki, the new lord, was incensed at Hachizô's presumptuous request, and confined him and his family to the village of Yamada (modern Yamada city) where they were forced to live with no stipend, subsisting on the sale of utilitarian wares to local residents.
Although the site of the Yamada kiln is known, it was buried by refuse from coal mining operations in the 1940s and is now inaccessible.

While the two courts (Japan and Siam) were exchanging official letters and gifts, a framed picture of a ship was presented to the Sengen Shrine in the province of Suruga by Yamada Nagamasa, who sent it by a merchant of his native province in February, 1626.
An official came to take the merchant into the royal castle where he was received in audience by its lord, who proved to be Yamada Nagamasa.

Some people began their own venture-type businesses, based on close links with local producers, such as Nagamasa Yamada, and if things had carried on in the same way, Japan today may have been a much more cosmopolitan nation.
The Edo Shogunate, however, shortly after taking rule, decided it did not approve of regional Daimyo growing economically stronger as a result of overseas trading, and feeling the threat of European expansion, with the accompanying power of Christianity, the government closed the country completely.
