Chapter 198: Now, the light is in my hands
Thatcher did have a lot of minerals in his hands, including precious metals such as gold, silver, and copper, which were completely controlled by the royal family. This is one of the reasons why Shelley saw through early on that the Hamin family was not completely exploited for power as you seemed.
In the industry of scientific and technological development, metals such as gold, silver and copper are very important parts, and Shelley naturally wants it very much. But at the moment, these are the source of the material of human money, and only those in power or those in power have permission to exploit them.
At this point, Shelley had no intention of reaching out. Because after the introduction of paper money, these things will soon have themselves. So in the end, what she needs most at the moment is coal and iron ore. Because the iron ore is related to the military armament, although it is not as strict as the precious metal, it is also subject to certain control. However, because of Shelley's identity, she is qualified to manage, and the current demand for iron ore is not high, and the supply of iron ore in the border states is also sufficient, but it is not her first demand.
Therefore, it is this coal mine that is a great headache for Shelley, because there are many projects waiting for the supply of coal mines, and the most important of them is the power project. Even though there are already many coal mines in the border states, they are not enough for Shelley's needs.
And now the only one who can help her solve this problem is Sachet in front of her, and Sachet was originally ready to use this as a reason to contact Shelley. Sache, who came with the idea of half-selling and half-sending, didn't expect Shelley to play a showdown as soon as he came up. After the important topic is over, the topic turns to the matter of minerals. If he still has to give it for nothing at this time, then he will be too faceless. It's not that he wants the lion to open his mouth, he just wants to rub Shelley's sharpness now.
"Coal mines, yes, it's easy to say, how much do you need?"
"How much does my uncle have?"
"Not much, more than 50 large mines, nearly 200 medium mines, and countless small mines~ countless."
Good guys, this is not much, if the people of this world can fully master the technology brought by coal mines, it is estimated that Setcher will have the capital to open his own country. Thankfully, they don't do much in their hands.
"Do these mines have mining teams?"
"How can there be, this kind of thing has a large amount and little demand, and the mining team in my hand basically works in the metal mine, and only when it is needed, will a part of it be arranged to go to the coal mine for mining. But you can't think I'll give it to you for nothing because of that. ”
"No, you will give it to me, not only will you not ask for money, but you will send it to me."
Looking at Shelley's expression without hesitation, Saxer also began to feel frightened. Wouldn't this girl really have any backhand?
"So confident? Okay, just let me see what you use to convince me. ”
Shelley gave Morley a look, and he was instructed to close the door to the conference room and draw the curtains to make it dark.
Just as Sachet wondered what Shelley was going to do, he suddenly heard a soft "pop", and then the whole room became bright again. Not because of the sunlight, of course, but because of a fist-sized ball of light.
"This ...... What is this? ”
Looking at the glowing orb in Nika's hand, Sachet exclaimed.
"It's called a light bulb, and it's something that glows when it's turned on, it's very bright, isn't it? Please ask my uncle to think about it, if there are such things in every house, in the streets and alleys, what kind of scene will it be at night? ”
Sachet's breath was a little short, and he could imagine the scene Shelley was talking about. But more importantly, if the night is lit up, then it means that humanity has been trapped by the night for many years has been liberated. Sleep time aside, there will be no limit to the range of time that humans can move.
You know, light has always been a blessing of nature, and it determines the scope of what human beings can do. But once the light is in the hands of human beings, the changes it brings are not a hundred stars. On a daily basis, people can get more time for work and study. In military terms, it means that we have mastered a more effective operational capability.
These were instantly reflected in Sache's mind after he saw the glowing light bulb. He took a deep breath and looked away from the light bulb.
"Take out something like this at this time, you want to say that it has something to do with coal mines, right?"
"Yes, as you can see, I, as a human being, have the light in my hands. And I can make the whole world full of stuff like this if I want to. With this technology alone, I don't have to worry about not having a supplier. So I'm lacking, but I'm not in a hurry, after all, who doesn't want to have light at night? You say yes, uncle? ”
When he said this, he was clearly told to him. Even if you don't give it, it doesn't matter, I can find someone else, no matter who sees this technology, I won't refuse. Coal mines are not worth much to them, and it is not a problem for them to add money in exchange for such light.
However, for a person of Sache's status, he would never allow such a thing to circulate into the hands of others before them, or even allow such a thing to bypass them and appear in other countries.
It's a pity that he can only think about it, because this kind of technology that is difficult for ordinary people to understand is estimated to be only possible by Shelley at the moment. If people want to, will it be difficult for them to kill her? Kill her own country and not get this technology. This is called absolute technology to grasp the lifeblood. At this time, Shelley not only couldn't afford to offend, but also had to coax him with a good voice.
Thinking of this, Sache showed a stiff smile: "You won, say, what conditions do you want?" ”
How could Shelley put such a technique out just to let him give the minerals for nothing? There must be something else in this. Because as she said, after seeing this technology, the only thought she had was to let Li'anguo have such a thing, no matter what the cost, and it was best to only stay in Li'anguo.
Seeing that Sachet softened, Shelley smiled: "Now my uncle understands, why should I have a showdown to talk about the previous two things, and then go back to talk about minerals, right?" After all, I'm also thinking about my uncle, if I take things out at the beginning, don't you have no choice? ”
Indeed, as long as Shelley takes this thing out, then even if she doesn't have a showdown, she will definitely agree to what she proposed before. But to say that she thinks about herself, Sachet doesn't believe it at all.
"Don't talk about it, you take out such a thing, I really don't believe you don't have other conditions."
In the face of Sachet's questioning, Shelley was silent for a while, and said with a smile: "It seems that I can't hide it from you, I do have some other purposes, but don't get me wrong, I say that for your sake is for your sake, as long as you give the vein for nothing, I will naturally guarantee that the technology can be popularized or even transferred in the future." And my purpose is really not difficult, I just want to exchange for a message and a power. ”
"Tell me, what do you want?"
"Number one: I want to know what a few of them are going to do to me behind the scenes. Second: I want the official diplomatic rights of the Han Heavenly Kingdom. ”
