Chapter 123 Honeycomb Coal and Liquefied Gas
Wang Hongwen pondered for a while, and then said: "We only have cement and coal, and the unit usually does not use cement, even if it is used, it involves the interests of all parties, and coal is also difficult, but it is not impossible to use honeycomb coal, but coal is a little sensitive, and others may not be willing." Army, what do you think? ”
Fang Dajun smiled, Wang Hongwen's thinking was not wrong, but he may not have really given gifts before, or he had not encountered such a complicated situation, or it may be that the gap between the official positions of the two sides has caused Wang Hongwen's level to decline, after all, no matter how strong his ability is, his previous official position is too low. The knowledge above is definitely not as good as Fang Dajun's traversal person.
"The cement is not made, the coal is sensitive, but the stove of honeycomb coal, hehe." Fang Dajun nodded.
Wang Hongwen's eyes suddenly lit up, and he sighed: "In business, I am far inferior to you!" ”
Huang Lao Wu on the side was confused, and he didn't know what the honeycomb coal stove in the mouths of the two people was?
Seeing this, Fang Dajun explained, anyway, there is no coal in Zhenxi, and Huang Lao Wu will know that it is too late to know this information, and at the latest ten days, he will start running the honeycomb coal market in the urban area.
Now go back to the past to talk about business, this time is not appropriate, and he also needs to prepare, so he made an appointment with Huang Lao Wu to go over early tomorrow morning, so Huang Lao Wu stayed in this guest house, and Wang Hongwen also had the intention of making friends.
The two continued to chat, and he went out again alone, gathered his brothers, and assigned another task.
Then he found a small teahouse, calculated the data in the corner, and had a lot of information in his hand, which were all price data collected in the city in the past two days, which was very useful to him, which could measure the consumption of this era and compare it with later generations.
Of course, the most important thing at this time is to compare the cost of making a fire, that is, the cost of cooking rice for residents, in a rural commune, a household, a year needs about two tons of coal, as well as a number of firewood, coal consumption is mainly used for cooking pig food and steaming rice, and sometimes stewing also needs coal.
But the city is different, according to Fang Dajun's memory, in his previous life, his family of three would use about 30 cubic meters of natural gas a month, including bathing and other consumption, and office workers would be a little less, because they would not eat at home at noon.
Thirty years later, the price of natural gas on one side is about 2 yuan 7, of course, the price of natural gas will vary from place to place, looking back, compared with the other two main living forces, coal gas and liquefied gas, compared with natural gas, the price of gas will be half cheaper, and liquefied gas will be nearly half more expensive. This is because the kcal values of the three gases are not the same, that is, the calorific value of combustion produced is very different.
The combustion gas sources in people's lives are roughly divided into three categories: liquefied petroleum gas, artificial gas, and natural gas.
Liquefied petroleum gas (referred to as liquefied gas) is a kind of petroleum tail gas left in the process of refining gasoline, kerosene, diesel, heavy oil and other oil products. Its main components are ethylene, ethane, propylene, propane and butane, etc., which are liquid in the gas cylinder.
Coal gas is prepared from solid raw materials such as coal or coke through dry distillation or vaporization, and its main components are carbon monoxide, methane and hydrogen. Therefore, gas is toxic and prone to the formation of explosive mixtures in air, and should be used with great attention.
The term "natural gas" usually refers only to a hydrocarbon-rich combustible gas stored deep in the formation, while natural gas that coexists with oil is often called oilfield associated gas. Natural gas is converted from organic matter hundreds of millions of years ago, and the main component is methane, in addition, according to different geological formation conditions, it also contains different amounts of low-carbon alkanes such as ethane, propane, butane, pentane, hexane, and non-hydrocarbon substances such as carbon dioxide, nitrogen, hydrogen, sulfides, etc.; Some gas fields also contain helium.
Among them, artificial gas and natural gas are both gases, which are transported through pipelines, and the bottled liquefied body is liquefied petroleum gas, which is commonly known as coal gas by the people, so the name of the two types of gas is repeated, and the gas tank is usually liquefied gas.
Because natural gas can be collected underground, there are only two sources of combustion gas in people's lives, namely natural gas or liquefied gas tanks.
The data in my memory is not very prepared, the units of the two gas sources are not the same, and the prices are not uniform in various places, and the rough conversion is about 3,800 yuan for a ton of natural gas and 7,300 yuan for a ton of liquefied gas, a difference of nearly half.
The calorific value of combustion per kilogram of liquefied gas is 11,000 kcal. The specific gravity of gaseous liquefied gas is 2.5 kg/m3. The calorific value of combustion per cubic meter of liquefied gas is 25,200 kcal.
Each bottle of liquefied gas weighs about 15 kilograms, with a total combustion calorific value of 159,500 kcal, which is equivalent to the combustion calorific value of 20 cubic meters of natural gas. And 1,400 cubic meters of natural gas, when converted into units, is about 1 ton of weight.
A 15-kilogram tank of liquefied gas costs 110 yuan, and 20 cubic meters of natural gas with a comparable combustion value only costs 54 yuan, which is nearly twice as expensive as natural gas, and the danger of liquefied tanks is greater than that of natural gas.
The advantage of liquefied gas tanks is that they are easy to use, no matter how big your house is, you can make a fire and cook with a can of gas. After 30 years, the installation fee in Sichuan is about 3,000 yuan, and for families, they will definitely choose natural gas in the long run, because the price is half cheaper.
――――――
Fang Dajun kept writing and drawing in his notebook, and he was a little dizzy, but this was not over.
At present, there is already a killer of liquefied gas in the urban area, and even natural gas, he doesn't want honeycomb coal to be ko'd by two combustion source gases before it appears, which is a tragedy.
Therefore, at this time, it is necessary to calculate the corresponding price, and not to fight the uncertain.
First of all, natural gas can be excluded, this is a high-end thing, the city only a few hundred units can afford to use, of which bank family members account for a large proportion, this account has little impact on his honeycomb coal plan, and the initial installation fee of natural gas can scare people down, at present, an account actually costs more than 800 yuan, non-rich people can not afford to install. And even if you have money, it's not that you can install it if you want to, you have to concentrate on the whole building, and when you meet a nail household, it's over.
This is also because of the fact that natural gas can be extracted underground in Neiqi City, and Renyi County has not been able to use natural gas at present, and there is no political axe unit.
Now it is considered liquefied gas, which is also commonly known as a gas tank, the current price of a ton is 240 yuan, a tank of 15 kilograms, and the price is 3 yuan and 6 cents. It has been calculated that 15 kilograms of gas is about equal to 20 cubic meters of natural gas, according to the three members of the family of Fang Dajun in later generations, a month consumption of 30 cubic meters of natural gas, that is, 22 kilograms of gas, the current population of each household should be multiplied by 2, a household in the urban area needs about 45 kilograms of liquefied gas per month, that is, three small tanks, a total of 10 yuan and 8 cents, or even more, because there is no water heater now, directly use an open flame to burn hot water, and the gas consumption is very fast. Stewing and boiling are the killers of gas consumption.
If you use electricity, 2 kilowatt-hours of electricity a day, 4 cents, 12 yuan a month, or even more expensive, because boiling water, stewing and boiling, is also a killer of electricity consumption.
In this way, as long as the household is not too economical, the fuel cost will be 10 yuan in a month, and 20 yuan for a large population and good living conditions are possible.
But what about the price of honeycomb coal, 40 yuan a ton, 800 honeycomb coal, each less than 4 cents, 5 honeycomb coal can meet the current needs of a household a day, that is, 2 cents to spend, only 6 yuan a month.
The disadvantage of honeycomb coal is that it lacks firepower and is not suitable for frying, but it is most suitable for stewing, boiling and steaming.
As soon as these data came out, Fang Dajun was full of confidence, and judging from the price of honeycomb coal that was half cheaper, it was completely possible to fight a sales war. Saving 6 yuan a month is 72 yuan a year, which is very strong for the current purchasing power of 72 yuan.
Of course, honeycomb coal is not perfect, it is a short board for stir-frying, but the people with good conditions can choose to use it, and stir-fry can use gas and electricity, the process is fast and consumes less. And stewing, boiling, steaming, boiling water, hot water, you can use honeycomb coal, because this is more economical. Together, you will still save a lot of money every month.
In addition, every household can use electricity, but at present, not all residents have access to liquefied gas, and the country's energy is still very tight to meet everyone's needs. As a result, there is no liquefied gas supply in county-level areas, and without this opponent, and because the electricity bill in the county is higher in towns and villages, the advantage of honeycomb coal is more obvious.
"Yes, very good!" Fang Dajun nodded frequently, before natural gas was not popularized, the advantages of honeycomb coal were too obvious, of course, as soon as natural gas came out, honeycomb coal would be swept out of the living list of ordinary households, when there was still a market, because natural gas is impossible to spread to all places, and not everyone can afford to live in bright community buildings, and many shops and old residential buildings are not eligible for the installation of natural gas.
Smiled, thinking about what to do so far, there is a fast flow of water, and he doesn't expect to make a lot of money every year on honeycomb coal, but for now, it is definitely profitable.
A few dollars a ton of coal, after purchasing, can process two tons of honeycomb coal at a little labor cost, and the wholesale price can be sold for 60 yuan, even if it costs a little messy cost. A ton of raw coal, as soon as it changes hands, he can earn 40 yuan.
The plan is 3,000 tons of coal a year, multiplied by 40, which is equal to a profit of 120,000 yuan, and the total investment is 10,000 yuan.
Quickly shook his head, and he didn't invest alone, he only accounted for 40% of the shares, and this is also the theoretical price, how much he can make in the end has to be done specifically.
"Well, do you want to lower the wholesale price and take a cut from the sales process? In this way, it is possible to compensate for the lost profits due to the lack of shares. Fang Dajun thought evilly.
ps: There is one more chapter, which is estimated to be later. (To be continued.) )
