my magic industry

Chapter 236 Establishment
"We need more iron materials to supply the steelmaking plants in the industrial park for production, so I hope to expand the mining scale of the coal and iron mines under your name."

"Increase the output of the mine? Viscount Xia Lin, the current price of iron ore on the market is 1 Silver Mal 40 Copper Pes per pound, and 15 Copper Pes per pound of coal. If the freight is included, this price We didn't make much money.

Moreover, the market in Helgana is so big, even if we let the miners dig out more iron ore and coal, no one will buy it. Could it be that you, a steel mill, are willing to buy them all? "

Hearing Xia Lin's request, Viscount Pound Brook, the Patriarch of the Brook family, took a sip of black tea and asked with some doubts.

Although these mines and slaves are all their own, the cost of mining is very low, and the profit of iron ore is not bad, but according to Viscount Pound's experience, even if his mines can dig out more ore, the market There is no way to digest this part of the extra iron ore. If Xia Lin wants them to increase production, he can only buy it.

"No, Viscount Pound, our steelmaking plant in Xinglan Industrial Park will not purchase these raw materials for increased production. You may not know it well. Our steelmaking plant uses pig iron and scrap steel for smelting, directly Acquiring iron ore is not of much use to us.

But I haven’t finished what I just said. In addition to increasing the production of ore raw materials, I also hope that everyone can use mines and miners as capital, and I will use technology and management personnel as capital to jointly form an imperial coal and iron union. company.

This coal and iron joint company will use its own shares as a bargaining chip to exchange the shares of the mines. In the past few days, I will find a suitable place outside the Blue Lake Mountains to establish various factories needed by the coal and iron joint to produce pig iron. Used to meet the needs of steelworks. "

Xia Lin denied Viscount Pound's conjecture and explained.

"Viscount Xia Lin, what benefits can the Imperial Capital Coal and Iron Company bring us? You can't just exchange the shares of this unestablished company for the shares of the mine in our hands, right?"

Another baron who attended the meeting frowned and asked.

"It's very simple. According to my plan, the coal-iron complex will initially build a washing plant, a coking plant and a blast furnace ironmaking plant. The scale of these plants will be epoch-making, and what they can bring Mining orders and sales profits will also be epoch-making.

Now I can tell you that these three factories need about 150 tons of iron ore and 150 tons of coal every day, and can produce [-] tons of pig iron and [-] tons of coke every day.

These raw materials need to be provided by our mines. Since the distance from the coal-iron complex to the mines is shortened, even if the purchase price of raw materials drops, our profit margins will expand a lot.

As for the pig iron produced, our steel factory in the Xinglan Industrial Park is willing to enter into a contract to purchase at least half of it at a price of nine gold lunt per ton. This part of the profit will also be distributed to the participants according to the number of shares. "

"Wait! 150 tons... isn't that [-] pounds of pig iron?! And that coke, which weighs almost [-] pounds?! Viscount Xia Lin, do you know what you are talking about?"

As the provider of ore, all the participants present have a certain understanding of the smelting industry. When they heard Xia Lin's words, everyone's eyes widened in unison, and their faces were full of surprise and doubt.An old knight with a mustache got up and asked excitedly.

These figures are really astonishing. If calculated according to Xia Lin's statement, his industrial park would have to spend 675 gold lents every day to buy raw materials from the yet-to-be-established Imperial Coal and Iron United Company, which is 675 gold a day. Kim Lent!
In this world where productivity is underdeveloped, even the annual income of many fiefdom nobles is only around 50 gold lunds, and whether the annual income of the royal family is [-] jin rends is a problem.This expenditure accumulated over a year is even comparable to the income of one or two earl families from all over the world!

The profit brought by this part of the purchase contract promised by Xia Lin alone was enough to attract the attention of the small and medium nobles present at the meeting.

"Of course, Viscount Pound has also visited the industrial park and seen the production in those factories. Let me ask Viscount Pound, do you think it is possible for such a factory to exist?"

Many of the nobles present were barons who had never visited the industrial park or even small and medium nobles such as honorary knights without hereditary titles. Xia Lin asked Viscount Pound, the only one among them who had visited the industrial park.

"...That's true. In Viscount Xia Lin's Xinglan Industrial Park, those exciting machines and equipment can indeed reach such a terrifying production scale. I believe he will not joke about this matter."

Viscount Pound thought for a moment, nodded deeply, and said in affirmation. After experiencing a lot of shock, suspicion, and entanglement, the small and medium-sized nobles at the side finally dispelled their thoughts on Xia Lin under the guarantee of Viscount Pound. After questioning and thinking about it for a while, a heartbeat arose.

"Compared with my factory, everyone should think about how to make the mines under their names produce so much iron ore and coal. The Imperial Coal and Iron Company purchases iron ore and coal from the mines, although the price will be set The market price is even lower, but everyone should be able to see a lot of profits.

Therefore, the establishment of the Imperial Capital Coal and Iron Co., Ltd. is definitely a good thing for everyone. "

Xia Lin saw that the small and medium-sized nobles present seemed to no longer oppose the company formation plan, and persuaded them while the iron was hot.

"However, Viscount Xia Lin, even if what you said is true, it is absolutely impossible for our mine to reach this output.

A miner under the name of our Brook family dug out half a basket of iron ore in the iron mine in one day, which weighed about 10 pounds, that is... um, almost forty kilograms, and about a day in the coal mine. Dig 150kg of coal.

I have [-] miners in [-] mines, and they can dig out about [-] tons of iron ore and [-] tons of coal every day.

Viscount Xia Lin, apart from the royal family, I am already the person who can produce the most iron ore and coal in the alliance. The output of other mines is far inferior to mine.

If you calculate it like this, I'm afraid all of us present, plus the iron ore and coal produced by the royal family's mines, may not be able to meet your requirements after increasing investment! "

At this moment, Viscount Pound, who had just given Xia Lin an assist, made careful calculations, but suddenly vetoed it.

"Viscount Pound, since I want to establish this joint coal and iron company, I have naturally considered this issue.

According to what you said, the combined output of everyone is estimated to not exceed 150 tons of iron ore and [-] tons of coal per day, right?
If everyone can transfer all the personnel in the mine to the Imperial Capital Coal and Iron United Company, I think I can try to solve this problem. At least there is no problem in increasing the production to a level that can meet the needs of the Coal and Iron United Company. "

Xia Lin thinks that since there are still miners, the mining industry in this world is probably still at the primitive stage of human labor. He should have many ways to improve mining efficiency.

For example, laying rails and mining trolleys in the mining area, updating the mining tools of the miners, using some management methods that are more advanced than slavery to improve the enthusiasm of the miners, and using black powder blasting to extract ore at the right location, etc. Wait.

Xia Lin can come up with four or five ways to think about it casually, but the specific use depends on the timing of the mining area.

"If this is the case, I am willing to participate in the formation of the Imperial Capital Coal and Iron Company!"

A jazz said impatiently, and the other nobles who attended the meeting also readily agreed.

"Then if everyone agrees, we will formally start the establishment of the Imperial Capital Coal and Iron United Company! Time is limited, and if there are people who do not want to participate, they can choose to leave now."

Xia Lin nodded, announcing the official start of the various procedures for the formation of this company, which was crucial in his plan.
