Chapter 61 Purchase of Steel

Successfully disposing of the gold coins in hand, Lu Li breathed a sigh of relief again, and followed Zhao Lao back to the car, and about an hour later, they came to a market specializing in selling steel. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Unlike most markets, there are hardly any people in sight, except for a few bored vendors who gather to chat, play cards, play chess, and the occasional truck passing by without paying attention, as if nothing has anything to do with them.

"How's it going?" asked with a smile.

Lu Li smiled bitterly and asked, "Yes, are you sure this is really the steel market?"

Zhao Lao seemed to be a little emotional, pointing to the mountains of various types of steel and explained: "The steel business was not good for several years, and from the market point of view, the supply is seriously greater than the demand, so 90% of the steel mills rely on government subsidies to live, otherwise half of the country will have to go bankrupt." So they don't make much profit selling steel now, as long as you want to buy it, you can buy it at any place, and you don't need me to come forward at all. ”

"If they can't make money, then why do they still do it? Why don't they change careers?" Zhao Meimei, who had been looking around behind her, asked innocently.

"Hehe, my good granddaughter, some industries are not said to go bankrupt, it involves national security, and steel is one of them. Our country has suffered losses in this area before, so now we would rather hang half-dead than allow large-scale closure of steel mills, otherwise in the event of a war, steel production will not be able to keep up and there will be big problems. With that, Zhao Lao raised his arm and touched the girl's hair, his eyes were full of pity.

Zhao Meimei nodded as if she didn't understand, and continued to follow without saying a word, due to heart failure caused by dysplasia, she looked much younger than her actual age, only about one meter four tall, and did not attract the attention of the people around her.

After simply turning around twice, the old man walked into the store called Bangyu Industry, and before he could speak, the middle-aged man on the counter walked out and asked with a serious smile: "This boss, do you want to buy something?"

I have to say that his eyesight is quite good, and he immediately recognized who was the richest in the group.

"No, it's not that I want to buy something, but the young man next to me wants to buy steel, I'm just going to take a look at it, and you can talk about it yourself. ”

As he spoke, Zhao Lao turned around and took his granddaughter to sit on the sofa next to him, and he didn't know what he whispered, the girl's face immediately turned red, and she lowered her head and played with the corners of her skirt.

Lu Li ignored the whispers of the grandfather and grandson, and said straight to the point: "Hello, I want to buy steel, but I don't know much about this, can you give me a general introduction?"

The middle-aged man smiled and nodded: "Of course it's no problem! But you tell me what it's used for first, otherwise so many models will be introduced one by one, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish talking in a day." ”

There is no doubt that in terms of the type and use of steel, Lu Li is completely a rookie, and after a little hesitation, he had to lie: "That's the case, I have a friend who plans to make some crafts about cold weapons, armor and the like, so he wants to buy some corresponding steel in large quantities, I don't know if you have any good recommendations?"

"Cold weapons and armor?" the middle-aged man's eyes widened in surprise.

"That's right! It's not the kind of movie stuff that you put in the house, it's not a decoration to put in the house, but a 100 percent practical real guy, sold to wealthy customers who like to study history and collect ancient weapons and armor. Lu Li explained a little.

The middle-aged man quickly showed a look of sudden realization, turned around and took out two palm-sized pieces of steel from the shelf, one slightly brighter and the other slightly darker.

He pointed to the slightly brighter one and introduced: "This is martensitic stainless steel, very suitable for creating cold weapons, most of the world's kitchen knives, scalpels, razors are used in this kind of steel, mainly 420 and 440 two models, the latter belongs to high-carbon steel, the hardness can reach 58HRC, the price is 50 yuan per kilogram, a ton is sold, more can be cheaper, as for the steel plate or steel block to choose." ”

Immediately afterwards, he pointed to another piece and continued to introduce: "This is tungsten steel, characterized by high hardness, wear resistance, heat resistance, corrosion resistance, strength and toughness are also very good, is the best material used to build armor, even tank armor is using tungsten steel, the only drawback is that it is too heavy, under the same volume, it is about twice as heavy as ordinary steel, and the price is relatively expensive, the cheapest is 600 yuan per kilogram, and the expensive one is more than 1,000 yuan, and it is sold at ten kilograms." ”

After listening to the prices of these two types of steel, Lu Li immediately realized that the cost of taking the high-quality route was too high and not in his own interests, so he asked again: "What about ordinary steel?"

"Ordinary steel is much cheaper, 2200 per ton, and more than 10 tons are discounted, but the freight has to be borne by yourself. The middle-aged man casually gave the price.

It can be seen that he is not interested in this kind of small business with no profit, and only thinks about which special steels with relatively high profits are made.

Lu Li smiled disappreciatively, thought about it for a few seconds, and quickly made a decision.

"I plan to order 100 tons of ordinary steel bars, 10 tons of the most expensive tungsten steel plate, and 10 tons of martensitic stainless steel 440 steel bars, but there is one condition, I must be cut into about 100 kilograms of size for easy handling. In addition, I plan to rent a warehouse near here for storage, and I can use it at any time in the future. ”

"Goo-dong!"

The middle-aged man obviously had never encountered such a big list, so he subconsciously swallowed his saliva, and then slapped his thigh ecstatically.

"Okay!

100 tons of ordinary steel bars are 220,000, 10 tons of martensitic stainless steel are 500,000, and 10 tons of the best imported tungsten steel are 12,720,000.

However, there is an additional processing fee for steel cutting, and I will give you a discount and a whole amount, 12.7 million.

As for the warehouse, we just have one, which can be vacated for you, free for the first month, and then 10,000 yuan per month for rent, as long as you want to save it. ”

"Yes, I think we can sign the contract now. ”

Lu Li had heard Zhao Lao say before that the profit of the steel business itself was very low, so he didn't plan to bargain at all. After all, these were all going to be transported to another world just now, and the profits he earned were more than hundreds of times that of the other party, so there was no need to worry about this kind of small money.

Oh, by the way, you don't know my name yet, my name is Xu Gang, and I am the sales representative of Bangyu Industrial. The middle-aged man introduced himself and enthusiastically invited Lu Li into the back office......
