80. Work arrangement
"Yankees are really not ordinary!"
There is a 1.5-ton electric arc furnace in the steelmaking furnace that was bought as scrap iron, which is a new product that has only been used for two years. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info such a loser's behavior, I'm afraid that only Citigroup people with deep pockets are willing to do it.
The business was completed, and the electric arc furnace was shipped back to Tianjin by fast boat. Now under the command of several Huaxia engineers, the installation has been completed.
"This business is really cost-effective, and it only cost 80,000 oceans before and after. The drawings were found by our people from the waste bags, and the refractory bricks and transformers didn't cost a penny, and the Citi people laughed at us for digging out the garbage! ”
Lu Jinbo said proudly.
A trace of emotion appeared in Qin Lang's heart.
"Our treasure, other people's grass! It's a pity that there aren't many such treasures, otherwise you would have to buy them if you went bankrupt. ”
The electric arc furnace mainly uses scrap steel as raw material, and after adding some metal elements, it can smelt special steel, which is the most scarce thing in China.
"With this equipment, a furnace of tool steel can be produced in two to three hours. If the workers can master the equipment proficiently, tungsten steel will not be a problem! ”
Qin Lang said with some frustration:
"But none of us know how to do it!"
Qin Lang copied a lot of information about alloy steel from Russia, but how the electric arc furnace worked was blackened.
Lu Jinbo also sighed.
"Commander, those engineers can only follow the installation plan. They don't know how to make steel with a furnace, and it is said that there is no such talent in China. ”
Qin Lang frowned.
There are electric arc furnaces in Soviet Russia, and there are several under construction, but they use Siemens products, which are different from the ones in hand.
"Is there an operating manual?"
Lu Jinbo pointed to the wooden box on the side and said:
"It's all back, and the engineers have translated some of it. It's a pity that I didn't know the essentials, and a test the day before yesterday almost broke the transformer. ”
Qin Lang thought for a moment and then said:
"Go to the steel mill that eliminated this equipment, and sign a contract with engineers and technicians in the name of Jinbo Company. As long as they train qualified steelworkers, I give a prize of 1,000 dollars. If I am willing to stay and work, I will pay five dollars a day, ten days of vacation every month, and I can return to China once every six months, and I will cover the boat fare. ”
Now is not the time to worry about money, if there is any failure caused by the operation of such equipment as the electric arc furnace, the cost of maintenance is absolutely sky-high.
Lu Jinbo wrote these down in his notebook, and then said:
"Commander, the British are selling the new Vickers MKI tank, which is asking for three thousand two hundred pounds, and the Carden Lloyd light tank is asking for two thousand five hundred pounds, and they ask us if we are interested."
Qin Lang smiled:
"This price is too expensive, and I can't afford to answer directly."
The British engaged in arms trading in Tianjin, that is, those large and small foreign firms, who had always been known for their treachery in selling equipment, and even President Chang had suffered greatly. And Wix's offer is so expensive, it is the consequence of the commission added. These international masters take a 10% that is called a friendship price, a little more ruthless 30%, or even 40%, and ask them to buy unless it is brain water
Besides, Vickers MKI is too simple, so it's better to wait for Maozi to imitate the T26S before buying. As for Carden Lloyd, he is a transporter at all, too small and has no room for change, which is a complete chicken rib.
Seeing that Qin Lang was not interested in tanks, Lu Jinbo immediately breathed a sigh of relief and said with a smile:
"Mr. Tan Kah Kee has been contacted that he has shipped 20,000 tons of rubber to Tianjin in advance, and it may arrive in the middle of the month, and we have allocated a full amount."
Qin Lang nodded and said:
"Mr. Chen is our valued customer, we must maintain a good relationship, the purchase price is higher than that of the Anglo-Dutch company, and the price of the sale to the Soviet Union is lower than that of the Anglo-American company, and you are responsible for the specific operation. Remember to tell Mr. Chen to just ship in small quantities and not attract the attention of others. ”
20,000 tons of rubber was nothing to mention for Stalin's huge industrial project. But now you have to be very careful, if the Anglo-Dutch company finds out, they will definitely cut this line.
"Commander, the food factory has added four more production lines. The sausages have been processed from the horse's offal, as you requested. Some suitable parts were also made into bacon, which is now in short supply in Tianjin. In addition, Zhang Shaoshuai of the Feng Department asked us to buy canned food, and the opening was 100,000, and our offer was two and a half oceans, and he did not make a counteroffer. ”
Qin Lang looked at Lu Jinbo's embarrassed appearance and smiled:
"Sell, why don't you sell, remember to have a good relationship with the young marshal, it may be used in the next few years."
Lu Jinbo immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
"I'll have someone prepare the goods right away."
Qin Lang looked at his excited appearance and asked again.
"The Soviet Union will transport the ore of the other party at the port we have chosen, and what will you use to transport it to the Baiyun Obo mining area?"
Lu Jinbo calculated for a while and said:
"Commander, the mule and horse brigade uses North China Daqing mules, and the two-horse towing cart can pull about 370 kilograms of goods on average, and it takes eight days to go back and forth according to the distance of transportation, but at the moment it can draw up to seventy carts."
With such a heavy load drawn by a mule-drawn cargo, walking 30 kilometers a day is already the limit, and no matter how fast it is, it will be exhausting. The price of a mule in Beiping City is twenty yuan. Qin Lang couldn't afford this kind of loss.
"On average, it's only a few tons a day, so let the hired homeless people build a road first. We use those 10-ton diesel trucks to pull it, and if we add a trailer to the back, it should be no problem to transport 30 tons. According to the highway standards in Europe and the United States, the car has been in it for a few more trips. ”
Lu Jinbo did not have any objections to the construction of the road. Now it looks like a bit of a big investment, but if it really develops, it will bring greater returns.
"In this way, diesel cars can travel at least 30 kilometers per hour. It can run three round trips a day, and if there are ten cars, it is already nearly 1,000 tons. ”
Qin Lang smiled:
"The road is going to be built to Chahar, where I found some minerals. For the Baiyun Obo mining area, how are those geological experts exploring? ”
The entire Inner Mongolia is extremely rich in mineral resources, not only molybdenum, but also nickel, chromium, and even tungsten ore that are used in special steel, but Qin Lang remembers a rough idea, and can only rely on people to explore slowly.
Lu Jinbo said with some excitement.
"I cried at the time, I used to see other countries find these minerals, but now that China has them, I was so excited. Political Commissar Luo Rong has already done ideological work, and they are all tight-lipped one by one. Now I go out early and return late every day, just to find out the reserves as soon as possible. ”
Qin Lang nodded and said:
"We must ensure their livelihood, we must go to Tianjin for a physical examination once every three months, and our families must also ensure their safety. The students they bring must also be taken care of, these talents are our most valuable asset, and there can be no problems. ”
