Chapter 164: Iron Smelting in Ma'anshan
Of course, this does not mean that Zhang San wants to work against the other party, people control the supply of goods and a large number of workshops, and he is not an opponent at all in terms of production speed, and he also has an advantage in the price war. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
Besides, in the era when there is no intellectual property rights, if you don't let anyone do it, if you stop one family, another will pop up, and you can't go to the door one by one to clean up, right? So Zhang Sanxiang is facing these guilds.
As the saying goes, people don't hurt the tiger's heart, the tiger is harmful to people's will, and they are also a big iron user in the capital recently, they see that it is profitable, and they will inevitably flock to it, Zhang San, a small shrimp who has neither a background nor any strength, will definitely be eaten, and any price increase will make you busy in vain.
And this is just the beginning, Zhang San may encounter a lot of times when using steel in the future, and it is definitely impossible to rely on himself, so confrontation is not the solution.
In this era, if you want to make your business bigger, you are either an official businessman or a private businessman, and the background in the government will make you do things like a fish in water, get orders that others can't get, and get profits that others can't.
The other is private businessmen, smuggling business is often profiteering, and smuggling is all exquisite, black and white. Moreover, many of them are also colluded by officials and businessmen to make profits. And these big iron merchants are a kind of official businessmen.
First of all, the mining rights of the mine, this is not something that ordinary people can get, and the sale of smelted iron also needs to rely on the power of the government, and the application of iron in this era is not popular, so most of the time the iron used by the government will account for an extremely important part of iron consumption.
Especially these big businessmen, they have disdained those who sell a hoe and a sickle, open up the door to the government, and the weapons and armor purchased by the military are the real profits.
Zhang San's recent increase in iron use has made Zhang San more urgent to have his own iron ore and iron-making furnace, but this industry is both labor-intensive, capital-intensive and technology-intensive, and it is not so simple to intervene.
But now that Zhang San has finished this vote, his waist has hardened a lot in an instant, and he dares to put into practice what he had stayed in his thoughts before. It may be difficult to break into this industry and start over, but Zhang San can acquire and merge shares.
Anyway, just find a suitable one.
In the morning, Zhang San was teaching the children, and the monkey came over in a hurry, Zhang San signaled him not to mess up and still go to class, until the class was over, Zhang San came out of the house.
The monkey came up and said: "Third brother, I have inquired, it is the Najia family who robbed our business, and they are now also producing with molds, and they are selling cheaper than us." I also found out that Jia Cong is the son of the Jia family. ”
Zhang San scratched his head and said, "Damn, such a coincidence?" ”
The monkey sighed and said, "It's not a coincidence, it's not a coincidence, he did it on purpose!" ”
Zhang San looked at him strangely, and the monkey continued: "After you offended him at the last poetry meeting, he has always held a grudge, specially inquired about our business, and then went back to copy it." ”
Zhang San was speechless for a while, this guy is really ghostly, but you really don't have a place to reason for this kind of thing. Zhang San nodded and said, "Where did you hear all this news?" Is there a way to buy the people in his house to hear more news? ”
The monkey scratched his head and said, "Third brother, I heard all this news from the restaurants and teahouses around his house, how can I inquire about the news of his inner house?" ”
Zhang Sangou hooked his hand and motioned for the monkey to come over: "I'll teach you a few ways to see if there are any good wine, lust, or gambling among his subordinates, make a threat to the game, and then give some benefits and just obey." ”
The monkey's eyes lit up, nodded and said, "Third brother, you can take a look." So saying, he ran out.
Zhang Sanyi grabbed him: "What are you anxious about?" I'm not done yet! This is to be done slowly and carefully. And give me to him to hear if any of these iron dealers have been doing badly lately. Or maybe it's something going on at home. ”
Zhang San thought about it and was still not at ease, went back to his house and spread out the map, and began to look for iron ore, Anshan in the northeast didn't look at it first, Hebei seems to have it but I don't know where, Zhangzhidong in Hubei seems to have iron ore near the Hanyang Iron Works. But it seems to contain sulfur, Zhang Zhidong can't even figure it out, let alone talk about it.
Panzhihua is in Dali, Ma'anshan has not been found now, and there are iron mines near Foshan, Guangdong, and Taiwan seems to have them, but I don't know where they are, and it's hard to find. Another is the Shilu in Hainan, which is a rich mine, and it is also the only rich mine in the country, but it is not easy to mine.
So in Zhang San's limited knowledge, Zhang San finally chose Ma'anshan as the target, this place should be easy to find, Ma'anshan, a mountain like a saddle. People can't put their eggs in the same basket. Not only to buy shares, but also to engage in their own mines!
In the afternoon, Lu Junyi rarely appeared again, and after coming today, he took a look at Zhang San's school, chatted a few words, and went out to run a horse, Yan Qing was left to play with everyone, and Zhang Yuanba had to pester Yan Qing to teach him sumo.
Yan Qing also likes this straightforward peer very much, the two of them tore for a while, Zhang Yuanba was miraculously not fallen, but Yan Qing was caught by him and grabbed off the ground, Yan Qing shook his hands and feet and smiled: "Brother Yuanba has been making rapid progress recently." Xiao Yi is almost no longer an opponent. ”
Zhang Yuanba said proudly: "What three days should be gouged up." We're not what we were anymore. ”
Yang Tai glanced at him: "Shibei should be impressed for three days!" What to dig! Be careful that the third brother knows about it and will punish you for copying it a hundred times. Yanqing is asking you to study hard and practice more kung fu! ”
Then Yan Qing got serious, and it was really different, Zhang Yuanba was going to be thrown once in three or five rounds. It's so much better than before. Zhang Sanzheng and Shi Wengong learned the halberd method, Zhang San played it again, Shi Wengong said with satisfaction: "Brother Zhang's halberd method has been learned, but this halberd technique is all on the wrist and arm, so brother, you can also lift a stone lock or something on weekdays." ”
Zhang San nodded to indicate that he knew, and after practicing for a while, Lu Junyi rode back, handed the reins to Yan Qing and said, "Go and pull my horse to the surrounding river to drink water and eat grass." ”
Yan Qing took the reins of the horse and said, "Okay master, you wait for me for a while, and I will go after teaching Brother Zhang Yuanba this action." ”
Lu Junyi scolded: "What are you teaching with your three-legged cat's kung fu!" Don't go yet, don't be thirsty for the unicorn. ”
Zhang San was about to step forward to talk, but seeing Lu Junyi training Yan Qing like this, he was also very embarrassed for a while, and he didn't know how to step forward, Yan Qing didn't feel anything, and immediately took his posture and said: "Brother Yuanba, I will teach you in the future!" After saying that, he took the reins, pulled the horse, and went out.
Zhang San looked at Yan Qing who walked out of the door, and didn't know what to say, such an eight-sided and exquisite character turned out to be just a subordinate of Lu Junyi, it was too wasteful.
