My Post-Apocalyptic Shelter Levels Up Infinitely! - Chapter 1381

[1371. Chapter 1352: My strength is here, even God has to give me face!]

Just as Lu Guangyin was secretly planning and laying out his plans.

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 their 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 each.

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 support, the lower three islands can still help each other and resist the pressure from the upper level.

But if the development continues in this way, 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 of them, we’ll 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 haven’t 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 quickly 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, yet so humble, such outsiders are rare.

The friendly attitude of the two people made Lin Jiafeng feel relieved. They were much better than those people he had dealt with in the past.

“You two are really insightful and courageous. You dared to come here for a field survey after hearing the news. 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 ore quality of our Tiantie Island 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, showing his understanding: “The ore quality of 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 replied immediately, “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.

He does not understand the attribute conditions for measuring the value of ore in actual operation.

“Although our magnetite has many impurities, after being treated with appropriate smelting processes, we can get high-quality molten iron, 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’s not a question of quality, but a question of whether you can add money.

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 this process is also very costly, and workers are required to operate on each piece of ore.

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 electrolytic separation can be considered to improve the quality of the ore before smelting.”

“And copper mines, I happen to have a potion formula we developed, which can effectively promote the separation of copper minerals and impurity minerals in copper mines after adding it.”

Mala Tiechui talked eloquently, 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 figured it out on my own. There’s no other way. The situation in the wasteland forces us to do everything we can to achieve our goal.”

“Figured it out on your own?”

Lin Jiafeng certainly wouldn’t believe such nonsense.

But it was meaningless to speculate at this time. The other party obviously didn’t intend to answer the truth.

“Do you need a comparison of the amount?”

Lin Jiafeng rubbed his index finger and thumb, making a gesture of counting money.

If it was just a small batch of ore purchases, it would only require negotiating the price.

But talking about the smelting technology and requirements meant that the purpose of this group of people was not just a little ore.

“That’s right. No matter how much ore you have, we want it all.”

Spicy Iron Hammer bared his teeth and said unceremoniously.

For a moment, he heard the sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground. Hu Shulin, who was still listening, fell to the ground with his legs weak.

What the hell?

Want it all?

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.

“We want it all. You don’t even know our production, and you dare to take it all?”

A voice came from the door of the restaurant, 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 has a thin face, but he wears 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 hair were mixed in with his black hair, which not only did not reduce 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 group who had just entered the restaurant with a calm demeanor, “This should be the manager of Tiantie Island, Mr. Sun, right?”

As he spoke, his tone naturally revealed intimacy and respect, which not only expressed his recognition of Sun Guangmin’s identity, but also showed his own dignity.

“To be honest, since we have heard about the Mining Island Alliance and are willing to come here from afar to investigate the situation, it is enough to show our sincerity and strength. Moreover, if our demand cannot even meet the output of an island, 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 our Tiantie Island has also met a noble person!”

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 someone

speaks with confidence or not can be heard clearly in just two sentences.

The confidence that the other party just showed was not like a person in an ordinary gathering place.

“Of course, the strength is here, even if God comes, he has to give me face!”

Spicy Iron Hammer was rarely domineering.

He knew very well that the more critical the time was, the less he could show any fear.

Immediately, the two parties sat down and began to negotiate.

Starting 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 ten 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 Iron Hammer will not hesitate to provide support.

This is a win-win situation.

As long as the output of Tiantie Island can eventually stabilize at around 50 tons per day, then the monthly output of 1,500 tons can meet all the needs of Tianyuan territory at present.

Of course, this is based on the premise that Tianyuan does 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 the needs of Tianyuan, and even the entire mining island alliance will not be enough.

But this is a later story. At this stage, it is better to negotiate the current cooperation first to 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’s not enough, we can still borrow from other islands for you, and 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 were still amazed at the demand of Mala Iron Hammer, but he immediately expressed a clearer attitude.

“But sir,” he smiled, “so much ore, the price will not be 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 over the conversation.

Mala Iron Hammer has been pretending to be cool 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. Let’s 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 am famous for my good reputation. I am not selling melons for 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 better and 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 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 listed 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 the more 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!

So… it’s okay?
