My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely!
Chapter 1360: With my strength, even God has to give me face!
Just as Lu Guangyin was secretly planning and laying out.
On the other side, Lin Jiafeng, the supply manager of Tiantie Island, was finally found and hurriedly followed Hu Shulin in.
At present, there are a total of six inhabited islands in the Mining Island Alliance, which are divided into the upper three and the lower three.
According to the strength, they are: Jinyan Island, Huoshi Island, Shuima Island, Tiantie Island, Qianshan Island, and Yinsha Island.
Among the upper three, Jinyan Island is undoubtedly the strongest, with a population of more than 70,000.
The strength of Huoshi Island and Shuima Island is basically the same, with 50,000 people in both.
The lower three islands, Tiantie Island, Qianshan Island, and Yinsha Island are brothers in distress, with just over 30,000 people.
At present, relying on mutual joint care, the lower three islands can still help each other and resist the pressure from the upper level.
But if the development continues in the long run, being annexed and merged is a foregone conclusion.
Therefore, the managers of the three islands are anxiously looking for opportunities to break the deadlock.
"They have iron boats... If we can exchange a few, let's see if Wu dares to send people to harass us next time!" Lin Jiafeng gritted his teeth.
The mining islands of Shuima Island and Tiantie Island are adjacent to each other, and friction often breaks out between the two sides.
It can be said that if their own managers had not always been as tolerant as possible, they would have fought each other long ago.
"How many ships can you exchange? You have a big appetite. You have never seen how powerful that thing is!" Hu Shulin paused. Although he was also envious of the iron boat, he still had a good idea in his mind.
No matter how much ore there is, it is just a resource. Without sufficient technology and industry, it cannot be exchanged for strength.
But the iron boat is a real weapon. With one, you can gallop freely on the water.
"Maybe, we can't even dare to think about it." Lin Jiafeng breathed a sigh of relief, and the two came to the front of the restaurant one after the other.
Looking inside through the half-open door, the table was already filled with a variety of dishes, and the aroma was overflowing, making people salivate.
However, unlike the outsiders who came here in the past and devoured the food in a hurry, fearing that they would waste this rare free opportunity, the performance of Spicy Hammer and Madman of the End of the World can be described as quite calm.
The two of them picked up the dishes elegantly with chopsticks, savoring the taste of each dish carefully, and occasionally put down their chopsticks to exchange a few words about the dishes, or chat about other gossips.
This calm attitude made Lin Jiafeng's heart startled again.
Fortunately, Hu Shulin had prepared himself mentally, so he did not freeze at this time, and hurriedly pulled the former to push the door and walk in.
First, he asked a few questions about the taste of the food, and then quickly took over the topic and introduced:
"Dear guests, this is Lin Jiafeng, the manager of our purchasing department."
Spicy Hammer and Madman of the End of the World stood up quickly and shook hands with Lin Jiafeng.
"Hello, Manager Lin. We also heard from the survivors that the ore of the Mining Island Alliance is of high quality, so we hurried over to take a look."
Obviously powerful, but so humble, such outsiders are rare.
The friendly attitude of the two people made Lin Jiafeng feel relieved. This was much better than the people he had dealt with in the past.
"You two really have vision and courage. Once you heard the news, you dared to come here for a field survey from afar. This is much better than 99% of the people in the wasteland. But since you know something about ore, I won't beat around the bush."
Lin Jiafeng said frankly, "In fact, the quality of our Tiantie Island's ore is not the best in the entire mining island alliance, especially the iron ore. You may need to purify it twice before you can use it, but I promise that you can get the lowest price in terms of price, and it is a price that other companies can't give."
Mala Tiechui nodded, expressing his understanding: "The quality of ore in each mining area will be different, I understand this. I wonder if Manager Lin can give a detailed introduction to the ore situation of your Tiantie Island?"
"Of course." Lin Jiafeng paused and started with the most basic and most demanded iron ore.
"The iron ore in our Tiantie Island mainly contains two types: magnetite and hematite. Magnetite has a higher iron content, but also relatively more impurities. Although the iron content of hematite is slightly lower, it has a higher purity. I wonder which type of iron ore you are more interested in?"
"We are interested in both types of iron ore." Mala Tiechui immediately replied, "But we are more concerned about the smelting performance and cost of the ore. I wonder if Manager Lin can provide some information on these two aspects?"
"This..." Lin Jiafeng hesitated. The questions raised by the other party can be said to be quite professional.
Most of the foreign buyers who came a few days ago only cared about three issues.
One is the quantity, one is the price, and the last one is the quality.
It can be said that as long as these three questions are asked, it is likely that the other party is a half-way trader.
They don't understand the attribute conditions for measuring the value of ore in actual operation.
"Although our magnetite has many impurities, it can produce high-quality molten iron after being processed by appropriate smelting technology, while hematite is easier to smelt into high-purity iron. As for the cost, since our ore mining and processing are semi-mechanized, the cost is relatively low. I wonder if you have any special requirements or suggestions for smelting technology?"
"Manager Lin is indeed an expert."
Mala Tiechui smiled and immediately heard the other party's implication.
It is not a question of quality, but whether it can be paid more.
For example, although magnetite has many impurities, if a suitable pretreatment process is adopted, such as gravity separation or magnetic separation, some impurities can be effectively removed and the grade of the ore entering the furnace can be improved. In this way, during the smelting process, not only the quality of molten iron can be improved, but also the energy consumption and cost of smelting can be reduced. "
But the cost of this process is also quite high, and workers need to operate one piece of ore at a time.
Even if it is placed in the Tianyuan territory, this repetitive work cannot be avoided at present.
Therefore, it must be a more cost-effective deal to complete it on Tiantie Island with low labor costs.
"In addition, although the iron content of hematite is slightly lower, its purity is high. Pretreatment technologies such as flotation or electrostatic separation can be considered to improve the quality of the ore before smelting. "
"And copper mines, I have a potion formula we developed here, which can effectively promote the separation of copper minerals and impurity minerals in copper mines..."
Mala Tiechui talked freely, and Lin Jiafeng listened, and the shock on his face became more and more intense.
He didn't expect that this seemingly gentle young man would have such a deep understanding of smelting technology.
"Brother Shu, what did you do before? How do you know so much about traditional smelting?"
"Hahaha, I also figured it out by myself. There is no other way. The situation in the wasteland forces us to do everything we can to achieve our goals as much as possible."
"Figured it out by yourself? "
Lin Jiafeng certainly wouldn't believe such nonsense.
But it was meaningless to speculate at this time, and the other party obviously didn't intend to answer the truth.
"Do you... need a larger amount..."
Lin Jiafeng rubbed his index finger and thumb and made a gesture of counting money.
If it was just a small batch of ore purchases, it would be enough to just talk about the price.
But talking about the smelting technology and requirements means that the purpose of this group of people is not just a little ore.
"That's right, how much ore do you have, we want it all."
Mala Tiechui bared his white teeth and said unceremoniously.
For a moment, only the sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground was heard next to him, and Hu Shulin, who was still listening, fell to the ground with weak legs.
What the hell?
All of them?
If an ordinary person said this, Hu Shulin would definitely think that the other party was making trouble and testing them.
But this group of people driving iron boats, based on their current strength...
"All of them, you don't even know our production, and you dare to take all of them? "
A voice came from the restaurant door, just as abrupt as when Hu Shulin appeared before.
Several figures walked in, led by Sun Guangmin, the manager of Tiantie Island who hurried over.
Unlike the lords and managers of most gathering places in the wasteland, Sun Guangmin is not the kind of rough and bold leader, but more like a gentle scholar.
He is of medium build and gaunt, but wearing a waisted long gown that covers his feet, which looks a bit old-fashioned and a bit old-fashioned.
But after his sparse hair was combed back, revealing his broad forehead and deep eyes, a few strands of silver were mixed in his black hair, which not only did not damage his demeanor, but added a bit of vicissitudes and heaviness.
This is a manager who looks a bit like an old teacher.
He looks serious and old-fashioned, but there is an indescribable sense of intimacy.
"Haha." Mala Tiechui smiled heartily, and greeted Sun Guangmin and his party who had just entered the restaurant with a calm look, "This should be the manager of Tiantie Island, Mr. Sun, right? "
While speaking, his tone naturally revealed a kind and respectful tone, which not only expressed his recognition of Sun Guangmin's identity, but also showed his own dignity.
"To be honest, since we have been able to find out about the Mining Island Alliance, we are willing to come here from afar to investigate the situation, which is enough to show our sincerity and strength. Moreover, if our demand cannot even meet the output of an island, then there is no need for us to go to such great lengths to come here."
"Well said, it seems that the situation has changed, and we have also met a noble person on Tiantie Island!"
Sun Guangmin's eyes lit up, not only was he not angry because of the other party's casual attitude, but he was even more surprised.
Whether he is confident or not, you can really hear it clearly in two sentences.
The confidence that the other party just showed is not like the general gathering place.
"That's natural. The strength is here. Even if God comes, he has to give me face! "
Mala Tiechui was so domineering for once.
He knew very well that the more critical the moment, the less he could show any sign of cowardice.
Immediately, the two parties sat down and began to negotiate.
Let's start with the supply of ore. The output of Tiantie Island is indeed good. Relying on the homemade earthen blast furnace, it can reach about 15 tons per day.
Even if the subsequent pre-treatment process needs to be carefully selected, it can be guaranteed to hover around 10 tons.
And this is based on the premise that the technology has not been upgraded. If they are willing to trade some technology to continue to upgrade the equipment, Mala Tiechui will not be stingy in providing support.
This is a win-win situation.
As long as the output of Tiantie Island can eventually stabilize at about 50 tons per day, then the monthly output of 1,500 tons can meet all the needs of the current Tianyuan territory.
Of course, this is based on the premise that Tianyuan will not continue to develop.
According to the current development plan, under the dual needs of rebuilding the city and continuing to expand the territory, the demand for ore will only increase.
In the future, one Tiantie Island will definitely not be able to meet Tianyuan's needs, and even the entire Mining Island Alliance will not be enough.
But this is a later story. At this stage, we should first negotiate the current cooperation and ensure the stability of short-term demand.
"This output is still too little. We can even reserve all your surplus this year. This is not a problem at all."
"Is this still too little?" Lin Jiafeng couldn't help but smack his lips.
The six islands are inferior in smelting quality, and the quantity is actually not much different.
Even Jinyan Island's current daily output is not much higher, only about 20 tons.
"If it is not enough, we can still borrow from other islands for you. We will definitely guarantee the delivery volume. This is not a problem for the Mining Island Alliance."
As a manager, Sun Guangmin's courage is indeed extraordinary.
Others are still amazed at the demand for Mala Iron Hammer, but he immediately expressed a clearer attitude.
"But sir..." He smiled: "So much ore, the price is not cheap, we can guarantee the delivery volume, can you guarantee to provide what we need?"
"What do you need?"
This time it was the Doomsday Madman who took up the conversation.
It has been Mala Iron Hammer who has been showing off for a long time, and he is so frustrated.
"Since you have occupied such a good place, you should not look at the living supplies and technical information first, but build up defense first. We don't want to change partners next time we come here."
"To be honest, I sell weapons, but you can rest assured that I have a good reputation. I am not selling melons and selling my own money. The weapons I sell are definitely durable!"
"Guns, do you want them? Not your homemade guns. We have standard rifles, pistols, machine guns, and sniper rifles. They are more durable than Ak. You can have as many bullets as you want..."
"Do you want rockets of various calibers? The price is very cheap. Do you want to buy a few hundred rounds to try?"
"Hey, there are also mortars. Since you are on the island, you must need this thing. How many do you want? I will transport you 200 mortars. Are they enough?"
"..."
The apocalypse madman counted on his fingers and told them one by one.
At first, everyone could barely keep calm, but the more time went by, the more shock they could not control.
Even Sun Guangmin couldn't help licking his lips, his whole body trembling slightly, his eyes showing a gleam of brilliance.
Bad news.
This guy in front of me seems to be a madman, a arms madman who doesn't care about the consequences and gets more and more excited as he talks!
With sharp weapons in his hands, he is murderous.
Doesn't he know that such wanton dumping of arms and weapons abroad will definitely cause widespread chaos?
But good news.
The target of the sale is us!
Then... everything is fine?
