Chapter 1352: With strength here, even God has to give it

My face!

Just when Lu Guangyin was carefully planning and laying out secretly.

On the other side, Lin Jiafeng, the manager of Tiantie Island's supply department, was finally found and hurried in following Hu Shulin.

There are currently six inhabited islands in the Mine Island Alliance, which are divided into the upper three and the lower three.

Ranked according to strength, they are: Jinyan Island, Firestone Island, Shuima Island, Tiantie Island, Qianshan Island, and Yinsha Island.

Among them, Jinyan Island in Shangsanjia is undoubtedly the strongest, with more than 70,000 residents.

The strength of Flint Island and Shuima Island is basically the same, both have 50,000 people.

The next three islands, Tiantie Island, Qianshan Island, and Yinsha Island, can be regarded as sharing the same fate, with only over 30,000 people.

At present, relying on joint care for each other, the three lower islands can still help each other and resist the pressure from above.

But if things continue like this, annexation and integration will definitely be a certainty.

Therefore, the managers of the three islands are anxiously looking for opportunities to break the situation.

"If they can exchange their iron boats for a few, let's see if Wu dares to send people over to harass us next time!" Lin Jiafeng said through gritted teeth.

The mineral island of Shuima Island and the mineral island of Tiantie Island are close to each other, and frictions often break out between the two.

It can be said that if our managers hadn't always been as tolerant as possible, they would have ended up working together.

"How many boats should I switch to? You have such a big appetite. You have never seen how powerful that thing is!" Hu Shulin paused. Although he was also envious of the iron boat, he was still quite convinced.

No matter how much ore there is, it is just a resource. Without enough technology and industry, it cannot be exchanged for strength.

But that iron boat is a real weapon. With one, you can ride freely on the water.

"Maybe, we can't even think about it." Lin Jiafeng breathed a sigh of relief, and the two of them came to the restaurant one after another.

Looking inside through the half-open door, the table is already filled with a variety of dishes, and the aroma is overflowing and mouth-watering.

However, unlike the outsiders who came here in the past and gorged themselves on the food, fearing that this rare opportunity would be wasted, the Spicy Iron Hammer and the Doomsday Madman behaved quite calmly.

The two of us use chopsticks, one for you, and one for me. We pick up the dishes gracefully, savoring the taste of each dish. Occasionally, we put down our chopsticks to exchange a few words about the dishes, or chat about other gossip.

This calm attitude made Lin Jiafeng suddenly startled again.

Fortunately, Hu Shulin had already prepared himself mentally and was not stunned at this moment. He quickly pulled the former open the door and walked inside.

First, he asked a few questions about the taste of the food as usual, and then quickly took over the topic and introduced:

"Two distinguished guests, this is Lin Jiafeng, the manager of our purchasing department."

Spicy Iron Hammer and Doomsday Madman quickly stood up, shook hands with Lin Jiafeng and exchanged greetings.

"Manager Lin, hello. We also heard from the survivors that the ore from the Mineral Island Alliance is of high quality, so we hurried over to take a look."

It is rare to see outsiders like this who are obviously powerful but yet so humble.

The friendly attitude of the two people could not help but make Lin Jiafeng feel relieved. This was much better than the people he had dealt with in the past.

"You two are really visionary and courageous. As soon as you heard the news, you dared to travel thousands of miles to investigate on the spot. This is much better than 99% of the people in the wasteland. But since you know something about the ore,

Then I won’t beat around the bush.”

Lin Jiafeng said frankly, "Actually, the quality of the ore on our Tiantie Island is not top-notch in the entire Mine Island Alliance, especially the iron ore. You may need to purify it twice before you can use it when you buy it back, but I promise

In terms of price, you can get the lowest price, and it’s a price that other companies can’t offer.”

Spicy Iron Hammer nodded and expressed his understanding: "The quality of ore in each mining area will be different, I understand this. I wonder if Manager Lin can give a detailed introduction to the ore situation in your Tiantie Island?"

"Of course." Lin Jiafeng paused and started introducing iron ore, which is the most basic and most in demand.

"The iron ore in Tiantie Island mainly contains two types: magnetite and hematite. Magnetite has a higher iron content, but it also has relatively more impurities, while hematite has a slightly higher iron content.

It's lower, but the purity is higher. I wonder which type of iron ore you two are more interested in?"

"We are interested in both types of iron ore." Spicy Iron Hammer replied immediately, "but we are more concerned about the smelting performance and cost of the ore. I wonder if Manager Lin can provide some information on these two aspects.

?”

"This" Lin Jiafeng hesitated. The question raised by the other party can be said to be quite professional.

Most of the external buyers who came a few days ago were only concerned about three issues.

One is the quantity, the other is the price, and the last one is the quality.

It can be said that as long as you ask these three questions, you can determine with a high probability that the other party is a half-way monk.

I simply don’t understand the attribute conditions used to measure the value of ore in actual operations.

"Although our magnetite has more impurities, after proper smelting process, high-quality molten iron can be obtained, while hematite is easier to smelt into high-purity iron. As for the cost, due to our ore

Mining and processing are semi-mechanized, so the cost is relatively low. I wonder if you two have any special requirements or suggestions for smelting technology?"

"Manager Lin is indeed a knowledgeable person."

Spicy Iron Hammer smiled and immediately understood what the other person meant.

It's not a question of whether the quality is good or not, but a question of whether you can add money.

For example, although magnetite contains many impurities, if appropriate pretreatment processes are used, such as gravity or magnetic separation, some of the impurities can be effectively removed and the grade of the ore fed into the furnace can be improved. In this way, during the smelting process, not only can the quality of the molten iron be improved,

quality, and can also reduce the energy consumption and cost of smelting.”

But this process comes with a lot of costs, requiring workers to operate the ore piece by piece.

Even if it is placed in Tianyuan territory, this repetitive work cannot be avoided at present.

Therefore, if it can be completed on Tiantie Island with low labor costs, it must be a more cost-effective deal.

"In addition, although the iron content of hematite is slightly lower, its purity is high. Pretreatment technologies such as flotation or electric separation can be considered to improve the quality of the ore before smelting."

"There is also copper ore. I happen to have a potion formula we developed here. After adding it, it can effectively promote the separation of copper minerals and impurity minerals in copper ore."

Spicy Iron Hammer talked eloquently. Lin Jiafeng listened, and the look of shock on his face became more and more intense.

He didn't expect that this seemingly gentle young man would have such an in-depth understanding of the smelting process.

"Brother Shu, what kind of job did you do before? How come you know so much about local smelting?"

"Hahaha, I am exploring this myself. There is no other way. Due to the situation in the wasteland, we must use all possible methods to achieve the goal as much as possible."

"Did you find it yourself?"

Of course Lin Jiafeng would not believe such nonsense.

But there is no point in guessing at this time. The other party obviously does not intend to answer the truth.

"Do you need to compare the numbers?"

Lin Jiafeng rubbed his index finger and thumb and made a gesture of counting money.

If you only purchase small quantities of ore, you only need to negotiate the price.

But speaking of the smelting technology and requirements, it means that the purpose of this group of people is not just a little ore.

"That's right, we want all the ores you have."

Spicy Iron Hammer bared his white teeth and said unceremoniously.

For a moment, I only heard the sound of tables and chairs falling to the ground next to me. Hu Shulin, who was still listening, fell to the ground with his legs weak.

What the hell?

Want them all?

If an ordinary person said this, Hu Shulin would definitely think that the other party was causing trouble and testing them.

But this group of people driving iron boats, based on the strength they have shown so far,

"You want them all. You don't even know our output, so you dare to ask for them all?"

The sound coming from in front of the restaurant was as abrupt as when Hu Shulin appeared before.

Several figures walked in, led by Sun Guangmin, the manager of Tiantie Island who hurriedly arrived.

Unlike the lords and managers of most gathering places in the wasteland, Sun Guangmin is not the kind of rough and bold leader, but more like a gentle scholar.

He is of medium build and has a slender face, but he wears a long tunic that covers his feet, making him look a little old-school and a little old-fashioned.

However, the sparse hair was combed back, revealing a broad forehead and deep eyes. A few strands of silver were mixed in the black hair, which not only did not lose the slightest bit of grace, but instead added a bit of vicissitudes and weight.

This is a manager who is a bit like an old teacher.

He looks serious and old-fashioned, but he also has an indescribable sense of intimacy.

"Haha." Mala Tiechui smiled heartily and calmly greeted Sun Guangmin and his group who had just entered the restaurant, "This should be the manager of Tiantie Island, Mr. Sun, right?"

When he spoke, his tone naturally showed kindness and respect, which not only expressed his recognition of Sun Guangmin's identity, but also showed that he was neither humble nor overbearing.

"To be honest, since we can find out about the Mining Island Alliance and are willing to travel thousands of miles to investigate the situation, it is enough to show our sincerity and strength. What's more, if our needs cannot even be met by the output of one island, then

There’s no need for us to go all the way here.”

"Well said, it seems that the tide has turned, and we on Tiantie Island have also met a noble person!"

Sun Guangmin's eyes lit up. Not only was he not angry because of the other party's casual attitude, but he was even more surprised.

Whether you have the confidence to speak can be clearly heard in just two sentences.

Just the confidence that the other party showed just now doesn't look like a person in an ordinary gathering place.

"That's natural. Given my strength, even if God comes, he still has to give me face!"

Spicy Iron Hammer is a rare domineering one.

He knew very well that at such a critical moment, he could not show any signs of timidity.

Immediately, the two parties took their seats and began to discuss.

Let’s start with the supply of ore. Tiantie Island’s output is indeed impressive. With its homemade blast furnace, it can already reach about fifteen tons in a single day.

Even if subsequent pretreatment processes are required, it can still be guaranteed to hover around ten tons.

And this is based on the premise that the technology has not been upgraded. If they are willing to trade some technology to continue to upgrade the equipment, Spicy Hammer will not be stingy in providing support.

It's a win-win.

As long as Tiantie Island's output can eventually stabilize at around fifty tons per day, then the monthly output of 1,500 tons will be able to meet all the current needs of Tianyuan Territory.

Of course, this is based on the premise that Tianyuan does not continue to develop.

According to the current development plan, with the dual needs of rebuilding the city and continuing to expand the territory, the demand for ore will only get higher and higher.

In the future, one Tiantie Island will definitely not be able to meet Tianyuan's needs, and even the entire Mine Island Alliance combined will not be enough.

But this is something for later. At this stage, we should first negotiate the current cooperation to ensure stable short-term demand.

"This output is still too small. We can even book all your remaining supplies for this year. This is not a problem at all."

"Isn't that less?" Lin Jiafeng couldn't help but clicked his tongue.

The difference between the six islands is the smelting quality, but they are actually almost the same in quantity.

Even Jinyan Island's current single-day output has not exceeded much, only about twenty tons.

"If it's not enough, we can also borrow it from other islands for you, and we will definitely guarantee the delivery volume. This is not a problem for the Mine Island Alliance."

As a manager, Sun Guangmin's courage is indeed extraordinary.

While others were still marveling at the demand for Spicy Iron Hammer, he immediately expressed a clearer attitude.

"But Your Excellency" he smiled: "With so much ore, the price will not be cheap. We can guarantee the delivery quantity. Can you guarantee to provide what we need?"

"What do you need?"

This time it was the doomsday madman who took up the conversation.

For a long time, Spicy Iron Hammer has been showing off, but he was so frustrated.

"I said that since you have occupied such a good place, it is better not to look at the daily necessities and technical materials, but to start the defense first. We don't want to have to change partners next time we come here."

"To be honest, I sell weapons, but you can rest assured that I am known for having a good reputation. I am not selling melons and writing blocks myself. The weapons I sell are absolutely durable!"

"Do you want a gun? It's not your kind of local gun. We have standard rifles, pistols, machine guns, and sniper rifles here. They are better than Ak and are more durable. You can have as many bullets as you want."

"Do you want rockets of various calibers? They are very cheap. Do you want to buy a few hundred rounds to try?"

"Hey, there are also mortars. Since you are on the island, you must need these. How many are needed? Will the two hundred mortars I brought you be enough?"

""

The doomsday madman clasped his fingers and spoke like a treasure.

At first, everyone could barely keep calm, but as time went on, they became more and more uncontrollably shocked.

Even Sun Guangmin couldn't help but lick the corners of his mouth, his whole body was trembling slightly, and his eyes revealed one after another.

Bad news.

The guy in front of me seems to be a lunatic, an arms lunatic who is reckless and gets more and more excited the more he talks!

He is armed with sharp weapons and has murderous intentions everywhere.

Doesn't he know that such wanton dumping of arms and weapons will definitely cause widespread chaos?

But good news.

The target of sale is us!

Is that okay?
