Code Name: Flame

Chapter 91 Hanyang Iron Works
Xie Keqiang rushed to Hanyang Iron and Steel Works excitedly with eleven idiots.

Why do you say they are stupid?Because these bastards actually practiced their guns on the boat, they alarmed the marine police and ran over to hand over their weapons. In the end, Xie Keqiang explained the situation and took out the IDs Liu Xiang gave them, and they passed the customs.

After the marine police left and dispersed the spectators, Xie Keqiang scolded them for being a bloody sprinkler, so couldn't they practice shooting when no one was around?

When he rushed to the gate of the steel factory, he was also stupid.

The wild grass is luxuriant and the white mist is lingering.If he hadn't seen a figure inside, he would almost have thought that the factory had closed down.

Hearing that Xie Keqiang was here to buy steel bars, and the demand was huge, the guard let out a cry, telling people to watch them not to let them go, and ran to the factory department by himself.

Several workers surrounded Xie Keqiang and the others, their eyes were bloodshot, which scared Xie Keqiang and the others to death.The boys put their hands into their arms and held the handles of their guns tightly. If there was any movement, they would draw their guns and shoot.

The changes of the boys also attracted the attention of the workers.You must know that they are providing materials for the Hanyang Arsenal, so they are naturally no strangers to firearms. Looking at the gestures of this group of people, is there a guy hiding in their arms? !

A young guy couldn't help asking: "What brand is it? One shot, two mothers, three flowers, four snakes and five dogs with their mouths kicked. I've seen them open their mouths."

Seeing that the workers were not hostile, Xie Keqiang also nodded. The red team members slowly pulled out their pistols and showed them in their hands. Surprised around, "What kind of gun is this? It's so beautiful, it's brand new."

In the pistol world, the Browning 1900 pistol is the most famous. Because it entered China early and was used by many people, it is the most famous.The Colt 1911A1 is not very well-known in China, but it is one of the best pistols. Until the 21st century, it was still the standard pistol of the US military, especially the special forces. up.

"The American M1911A1, .45 caliber, 8 rounds, one shot at a short distance is fatal. What you are talking about, one shot and two horses is not its opponent at all." Regardless of whether the red team members are bragging, they only heard .45 caliber, It scared people to death.

The workers looked at Lan Yingying's muzzle and swallowed involuntarily.Men are all like this, when they brag, they are full of hype, as if they are the most knowledgeable people in the world, and when they see the truth, they are all country bumpkins.

Seeing the captain show off, the others felt an inexplicable sense of pride, and each of them took it out to show the workers.A worker reached out to touch it, but was beaten back, "Don't touch it, you will pay for it if it breaks?"

Amidst the laughter of the crowd, there was an extremely uncoordinated howl. Everyone turned their heads to look, but it was the guard who came running with a man in charge. "My lord, Jintao, the director of the iron factory."

Xie Keqiang quickly stretched out his hand, "Xie Keqiang, deputy manager of Chongqing Colt China Company."

Jin Tao had never heard of the name of Colt China Company, but he returned from studying in the United States, but he had heard of the name of Colt.

"Is there any connection between you and Colt Corporation of America?"

"That is one of our shareholders. To tell you the truth, our head office is Nelson Transportation Company. Our boss, Li Guohua, together with Colt, Citigroup and Morgan, invested and built a factory in Chongqing. Now we need a lot of steel bars, so the company appointed I'm here to purchase from your factory."

Jintao was a little disappointed. It turned out that he was buying steel bars, so how much could he buy?The doorman yelled that there was a big customer at the door, how old he thought it was.You must know that the iron factory is currently borrowing money to survive, and the wages of the workers have been in arrears for more than half a year. Without major customers, it will really be over.

But those who come are just customers, Jintao chased away the workers, invited Xie Keqiang to the office, ordered someone to make tea for Xie Keqiang, but kept looking at the eleven people behind him, meaning that you should not come in, it is cold outside Not good for a while?

"I don't know how much Manager Xie wants to purchase? How to pay for it?"

"I don't know the price of Hanyang Iron Works?"

Jin Tao took out a price catalog, "It's all on it. If you buy a lot, you can still negotiate, but..." He pushed his glasses in embarrassment, and finally said: "We require payment first."

How can anyone pay in advance in this era?The deposit has been paid by others.But there is no way, if he doesn't pay the full amount, he doesn't even have the money to buy raw materials and coal.

Xie Keqiang was also stunned. Does this Director Huang not want to do business with him?Why did the lion open his mouth?

Seeing his uneasy expression, Jintao also knew that most people would feel uncomfortable when he said that, so he gritted his teeth and told him about his predicament, "Manager Xie, I have no other choice, I hope you can understand us."

"I want [-] tons first, when will you get it out the soonest?"

"Two hundred tons?" Jin Tao calculated for a while and said, "Forty days."

Forty days is too long. A day late in Chongqing is a loss. There are so many people to support, and the daily expenses are huge.

"How about transporting ten tons in three days, fifty tons in ten days, one hundred tons in twenty days, and two hundred tons in forty days?"

"Okay. Then... how about 70 yuan a ton?"

"I will pay the full amount in advance, 100 yuan per ton. The only requirement is that the quality must be good."

Jintao was dizzy, how could there be such a business?If Chen Jia was here, his jaw would drop in shock. The reason why he sent Xie Keqiang to buy the steel bars was because of his trust, and because he was a stingy man, and would save him money.If he knew that Xie Keqiang saw the hunger and thirst of the workers outside, and the way Jin Tao was driven to nowhere, he felt compassion, and wondered whether Chen Jia would deduct Xie Keqiang's salary. What about Bai Dayang's salary?

Jintao was overjoyed. This was the first time since he took office that he had ordered dozens of tons of steel for Hanyang Armory, and it was the first time someone had ordered such a large amount of goods, and he paid the full amount in advance.

"Okay, thank you so much, we will sign the contract right away."

"Wait a minute, Director Huang, can you produce better barrel materials than Hanyang Armory?"

Just as Jin Tao was told to wait a moment, his heart was a little chilled. When he heard that there was still a drama to come, he immediately became energetic, "Yes, but the production volume is not high, and the price is more expensive."

"Is there any sample? I'll take it back to our chairman to see. If the product is qualified, we will have a large quantity."

Jin Tao agreed, and hurried out to ask someone to get the materials, and then got back two contracts, and filled in the matters that he had just agreed on.

20 oceans is only more than 8 US dollars, so Xie Keqiang took out a check of 20 US dollars and put it on the table, "This is the first batch of money for you. I will go to the bank to pay the rest later. To your account. We will purchase at least [-] US dollars in advance, and I will sign a subsequent purchase contract with you after verifying the quality of your products."

Huang Jintao is simply crazy, 20 US dollars is a bill of nearly 50 yuan. Although it cannot completely relieve the current predicament, at least it can alleviate a lot.

At this moment, he was still a little sane, but when he heard Xie Keqiang's words, he went completely crazy, "According to our project budget, we will purchase steel bars from you at least 40 US dollars. If the barrel material is qualified, it is estimated that it will cost 100 million US dollars to around $200 million."

I'm not alive anymore, God of Wealth, will you kill me?Let me know this is reality and not a dream.

With this list, Hanyang Iron Works will get rid of the current predicament, at least most of the debts can be settled.

Xie Keqiang came back, he didn't come back alone, he also brought back a few tails.

One tail is over 50 years old and his name is Wu Jian.

One tail is less than fifty, and his name is Yan Enqi.

One tail is less than forty, and his name is Jin Tao.

A tail is in his 20s and his name is Yang Zhuo.

One tail is in his 20s and his name is Wu Guozhen.

A tail less than twenty, the name is Huang Xiaozong.

What made Chen Jia even more unbelievable was that Wu Jian and Yan Enfen were actually from Shanghai.The so-called fellow villagers see fellow villagers, with tears in their eyes.

At the reception banquet, I learned that Wu Jian, Yan Enfen, and Huang Jintao are all the most outstanding metallurgical experts in China, and the three directors of Hanyang Iron Works.Yang Zhuo returned from studying abroad, but he is a prospector.Wu Guozhen is the son-in-law of Huang Jintao, a Ph.D. in the United States, and the current mayor of Hankou City.Huang Xiaozong is the son of Jintao. He heard that his father and brother-in-law were on a business trip to Chongqing, so he wanted to follow him to have a look.

Chen Jia suddenly discovered that in fact, there are quite a lot of talents in China, and there are several in front of him.Wu Guozhen and Yang Zhuo are a few years younger than Chen Jia, and they are considered to be of the same age. They all have overseas backgrounds, so the conversation between the three of them is the most speculative.He didn't know that the little guy named Huang Xiaozong in front of him would become a world-renowned rocket propulsion expert in the future, Dana.
