After assigning the task, everyone in the purchasing department received the business trip funds and went straight to the long-distance station.

Ye Qing was not idle, although it was a hot summer, he still called Xu Xiaohu and went to the regular bathing center to take a sauna together.

washed off the exhaustion, and then ordered four technicians to come over and give him and Xu Xiaohu a full body massage.

While enjoying the massage of two young technician girls, Ye Qing opened the phone address book and called the two steel mills that had been doing business before, asking about the price of pig iron ingots for steelmaking.

The previous purchase letter totaled about 200 million.

It does not include steel, which is the most used material for the expansion of the plant.

Since the establishment of the metal smelting center, Ye Qing does not need to buy various types of finished steel products at all.

Instead, they directly purchased pig iron ingots for steelmaking in large quantities and smelted them themselves.

In this way, the cost is low, and the quality of the various steels directly formed by the metal melting center is much better than that made by them.

The entire Longxi Beach has an area of 40,000 acres, and even the first phase of Ye Qing's current planned expansion project requires astronomical steel.

Steel has always been Ye Qing's own contact, through the phone of the first steel mill, Ye Qing after a few words, directly asked the steel mill boss how much inventory of pig iron ingots for steelmaking.

"20,000 tons!" Since the steel mill boss caught up with Ye Qing, a steel-swallowing monster, he turned losses into profits, which made his peers jealous.

"What about the price?" 20,000 tons is not much for Ye Qing now, the price of pig iron per ton is only 1500000, and 20,000 tons is only 30 million.

"Mr. Ye, the price of pig iron has to rise a little more this time. Boss Pan of Bofeng Iron and Steel said with a smile: "This batch of raw ore for steelmaking pig iron is all imported from the Calayas mining area in Brazil, and the quality is better than before." ”

"I'll count you one thousand six hundred and five, a ton. ”

Brazil's Calayas mine, the world's largest iron ore producing area, is of very good quality. The price set by Boss Pan was a little expensive, but for the sake of the proximity, Ye Qing said that 20,000 tons were all-inclusive, and asked him to arrange for a heavy truck to be sent over immediately.

After contacting Bofeng Iron and Steel, Ye Qing called Hongtai Iron and Steel again, they had more than 10,000 tons of pig iron there, and Ye Qing also asked for all the price after negotiating the price.

"Uncle Cousin, why don't we also contract an iron ore mine and mine it ourselves. After Ye Qing finished calling, Xu Xiaohu on the side blushed a little and accosted Ye Qing, he was only eighteen years old, and he was led to this kind of place by Ye Qing.

"I order from other steel mills all day long, and the money is made by others. ”

"You'd really like to. Ye Qing said with a smile: "There are no large-scale iron ores near Zhongyun at all, they are all fragments of low-quality iron ore, and the reserves are still pitiful, how can there be mining value?"

"So some other steel mills import iron ore from abroad to refine it themselves. ”

"Brazil and Australia, these two places are world-famous raw ore fields. At most, we will learn from those steel mills and buy raw ore to smelt it ourselves. ”

Xu Xiaohu nodded, indicating that he understood.

…………………………

At six o'clock in the afternoon, the first batch of 50 heavy trucks from two steel mills drove into Longxi Beach.

It happened that four new metal experts had been recruited, and they knew the metal very well, and Ye Qing asked them to wait for the unloading to check the quality of this batch of steelmaking pig iron ingots.

This unloading process is very long, the convoy has been lined up on the road of Huanhai Avenue, the crowded convoy, and the slow unloading time, so that Ye Qing broke ground in the project, there is a large transit warehouse that can accommodate 200 heavy trucks and unload at the same time.

Taking advantage of the fact that the iron was being unloaded outside, Ye Qing came to the office, and on the topographical sand table of Longxi Beach, he used a whiteboard pen to neatly mark out the predetermined location of the transit warehouse.

Then the sketch was made, and the transit warehouse was not very technical.

The floor is sufficient, the ground line and drainage canal are reserved, and the plant is all made of steel structure.

As for the loading and unloading tools, Ye Qingping abandoned the traditional forklift and crane, and prepared to boldly adopt a fully automated robotic arm.

This is the inspiration to help Xu Ninggong's crew build a folding rocker arm.

Imagine what kind of high-tech experience it would be to have 200 large robotic arms in a huge transit warehouse that can load and unload goods at the same time?

The most important thing is the robotic arm, which is a high-tech product, and it is very advantageous to use it to punch the manufacturing index for the monster factory.

After the sketch was drawn, the sky slowly darkened.

Ye Qing recruited ten more exquisite masters and ten giant laborers from the monster factory.

As long as there are twenty monsters, with the help of the mechanical giants, Ye Qing has the confidence to compete with the efficiency of a large construction group.

The newly recruited master of ingenuity, dressed in disguiser overalls, carries a laser rangefinder to draw lines, while the giant laborer carries a lime bucket and sprinkles unmistakable lines along the way.

A mechanical giant X-type was driven out of the underground base by Ye Qing.

The original exit of the underground base was completely enlarged and concealed with a camouflage iron gate. On the side of the sea, a huge flat ground was also padded from the rubble excavated by the angry miners, which was connected to the factory.

A row of searchlights on the top of the cockpit were all turned on by Ye Qing.

With the sound of a rumbling engine, the X-like mechanical god slowly drove out of the factory like a steel giant.

This is the first time that the Ex Titan X has appeared in the outside world, but it is already remote, and it is evening, so no one will be attracted to the excitement.

Click~click~

As soon as the mechanical giant X-type got off the roadbed, Ye Qing saw from the surveillance video that the cement at the junction of the roadbed and the wasteland was pressed out of a large gap.

……

It doesn't matter, anyway, this cement road has long been crushed by those heavy trucks, and when the concrete arrives, it will be directly shoveled and rebuilt.

Not long after Ye Qing drove to the wasteland, the second mechanical giant X-type was also driven out.

And then the third, the fourth!

A halogen lamp is lit, illuminating the entire wasteland as if it were daytime.

"Hey~ Niu 1, Niu 2, Niu 3, please line up with me. Ye Qingduan sat in the cab and called the other three drivers through the intercom in Guò.

There was no response, but the three mechanical giant X-shapes moved in unison, roaring, and the earth shook, forming a straight line with Ye Qing's car.

Ye Qing looked at the craggy rocks outside the cab, and his eyes showed a kind of eager light.

"Listen to my command!" Ye Qing shook his light steel control clothes, pressed the work button with both hands, and paused: "Niu 123, switch the mountain shovel bucket, drop to minus 0.2 meters, and rush with me!"

The voice fell, and four mechanical giants X-shaped neatly waved the alloy steel robotic arm with a diameter of two meters.

After the thunderous sound of mechanical operation, a single low-titanium alloy shovel bucket weighing two tons and with a cold metal edge on the edge formed a metal defense line that thousands of troops would never want to break.

Boom ~ Boom ~ Boom ~

The bucket breaks through the rocks and pierces the ground.

Then four mechanical behemoths, emitting black smoke, roared and charged forward.

In the face of the unparalleled power of the mechanical giant X, whether it is rocks or dirt, all of them are shoveled aside like a tide.

Where the four behemoths walked, they left behind the ground as smooth as a knife.

"Haha~" Ye Qing's blood was boiling and he was brave and forward.

This is the charm of industry, and it is also the power of industry.

In just 20 minutes, Longxi Beach, which was originally given away for nothing and no one would be willing to come to develop, was cleared out of a smooth ground 36 meters wide and 1,800 meters long by four mountain-like steel giants. According to this efficiency, bulldozing the entire Longxi Beach will only be a matter of one or two days.

On the flat ground more than 1,500 meters away from the factory, the originally blue-gray rocky ground gradually turned brown.

The further you go, the more obvious the brown on the ground becomes, and the back turns tan, and the flat incision faintly shimmers with a metallic sheen.

A dark, horned, red-eyed ghost-clad figure flashed out of the factory gate.

He chased down the flat ground rolled out by the Automaton X.

Ye Qingkai was getting up, and from the rear monitor, he saw a figure as black as iron catching up, and he was almost frightened and turned the shovel bucket to shoot it.

Motioning for several mechanical giants to stop together, Ye Qing asked him what was the matter, and hurriedly chased him from behind?

"Boss~ The batch of pig iron ingots you asked me to inspect, and report back to you, we have all checked them. The metal expert's voice was hoarse: "That batch of pig iron ingots is still 8% short of the parameters on the certificate of conformity they provide." ”

"That's barely qualified. Ye Qing is not surprised by this general situation, slightly exaggerating the number of their own products, which is the unspoken rule of almost all steel mills.

"Boss, we can make the best steel ourselves. The metal expert, pointing to the tan and shimmering metallic ground underneath his feet. (To be continued.) )
