As mentioned before, Chen Lidong can only obtain gold coins through the system material recovery function.

The gold coin exchange cannot be accomplished overnight. The reason is that the purchased scrap steel needs to be cast into steel billets in the system furnace, and the funds obtained from selling the steel billets must be used to maintain operations. In addition, the construction of Donghua Iron and Steel also requires a considerable cash reserve.

Chen Lidong felt that the amount of individual elements in the system was growing very slowly. He had been in the Far East for almost a month and had only received 3 million gold coins. The system upgrade required 20 million gold coins. Do you want to keep him tied here for 7 months?

time?

During the recent period, Chen Lidong exchanged all the monomers of various elements for gold coins: after recycling a certain amount of scrap steel, all of them were smelted into billets and slabs, and all other monomers were sold to the system.

So, he discovered a rule: the systematic melting of steel billets does not obey the law of conservation of matter.

After a ton of scrap steel is decomposed, the mass of various element monomers obtained is less, and the recovery rate is about 80%. Chen Lidong thought that maybe some substances in the scrap steel were used as energy and were absorbed by the system's smelting.

One ton of scrap steel can generally refine 60% to 70% of the steel billets and slabs, and then 10% to 20% of the elemental elements are converted into gold coins by Chen Lidong, so the progress of obtaining gold coins is so slow.

The refined billet needs to replenish the load of the freighter. Most of it is transported to the Yanjilan area. Some of it is exchanged for scrap steel, and some of it is supplied to long-term customers such as Jinxin Steel Rolling Mill. It is used to roll threads and other construction materials. The profit per ton is

The profit is about 300 yuan.

The refined slabs are all rolled into high-strength alloy steel by Far East Metallurgy and supplied to CSSC and Sunland.

The overall profit per ton after the slab is rolled into the steel plate is more than 300 yuan, which is US dollars. Half of it is included in Far East Metallurgy, and the other half is included in the profit of Yuanheng Trading.

Chen Lidong shipped a new batch of equipment, Shoholov was transferred back, and Chen Lichun and Zhang Bing transferred more than two hundred people from China. What are they doing? Build a new steel rolling line. After this line is completed, it will be

Used to produce high-quality steel products such as automotive steel plates.

The construction of the new rolling line started in early August. The workshop directly adopts steel structure. The foundation and equipment base have been processed. The hoisting of beams and columns has been completed. The upper trusses have been installed. At this time, the installation of the equipment below has started.

The workshop's roof and wall panels and other equipment will be installed and debugged before being closed. The construction period is planned for three months. With the debugging time included, it is planned to be officially put into production at the end of October.

Now, the most important thing is transportation capacity. The shoreline at the port has been renovated, the number of berths has been increased to six, and the warehouses and yards behind have also been expanded.

From Komsomolsk to Vladivostok, Lovich arranged a road protection team to not only crack down on troublemakers who disrupted railway transportation, but also to monitor and maintain old railway facilities.

Chen Lidong contacted relevant parties in Blue City. Blue Steel is producing a batch of wide gauge rails to replace old rails.

Lanshi Locomotive and Rolling Stock Factory also came to conduct an inspection, and Lovich came forward to reach an agreement with the other party to purchase 8 diesel locomotives and replace all the traction locomotives that were running on the line and had frequent failures. He also purchased a batch of railway and

Motorcycle accessories.

The person in charge of the rolling stock factory was so happy that the pie fell from the sky and hit him on the head. There were 8 locomotives with a total budget of 6 million US dollars. Although the other party requested that some locomotive parts be entrusted to Limin Machinery Repair Factory for processing, the purchase price

It is also based on the market price, so you should make a lot of profit.

We also did some research on Limin Machinery Repair Factory and Locomotive and Rolling Stock Factory. The machining level is well-known in the industry. As long as the quality of the parts is excellent, just adding a parts procurement unit will not do any harm to our company.

The Far East Railway is thousands of miles long. If we can develop this market well, maybe...

----------------------------------------

After the foreign garbage shipped by Hao Yueming was recycled by the system, Chen Lidong found that it was much more cost-effective than recycling scrap steel if the garbage occupied the transportation capacity.

Chen Lidong calculated that one ton of garbage produces 0.8 tons of various elements. In addition to carbon, silicon, and iron, heavy metals such as cadmium, lead, chromium, and lithium can also be recovered, and even precious metals such as palladium, iridium, platinum, gold, and silver can be recovered.

, the price of precious metal elements in exchange for gold coins is relatively high.

The total amount of garbage that Chen Lidong bought from Hao Yueming was 76,800 tons. Chen Lidong paid more than 16.5 million yuan and transported it to the Gongqingcheng Steel Plant. One ton cost about 210 yuan.

Seventy to eighty thousand tons of garbage were piled in the open space, like a hill. It took a few days to be eaten by the system's furnace. During this period, the self-owned power plant was all managed by mechanical servants. Chen Lidong opened the furnace with confidence and boldness.

Digest foreign garbage.

This batch of garbage only smelted 5,460 tons of steel billets, but the collected elemental monomers were exchanged for 12.1 million gold coins.

The income from steel billets is close to the cost of purchasing foreign garbage. You can earn 12 million gold coins. Compared with the regular purchase of scrap steel, you can earn gold coins faster this way.

The key is whether foreign garbage can be used to manage energy, so Chen Lidong called Hao Yueming. When he received Chen Lidong's call, Hao Yueming was overjoyed.

Because Chen Lidong took over this acquisition of foreign garbage, Hao Yueming did not lose money or make any profit. While he was grateful to Chen Lidong, Hao Yueming was also a little bit unwilling.

Chen Lidong asked him if he could receive foreign garbage? Of course he could. Some friends had already come to him and asked him how he got the goods.

Under the severe crackdown by the state, some people have already fallen into trouble. Foreign garbage has been loaded on cargo ships and can only float on the sea. If this continues, they will lose their pants.

Some people are more cautious and have paid a deposit for signing a landing contract. People are law-abiding. Although the adjustment of national policy this time is a force majeure, it is your matter on China's side, and the other party will definitely

I don’t think so. It’s okay if we just close the door, but it will be difficult to continue to do import and export trade after this time.

Hao Yueming saved his capital. This matter spread quickly, so let's ask him. If you can keep your capital, you can even lose less.

So Hao Yueming didn't stop at all. Some people called him to inquire, and some anxious ones had already gone to his house to stop him.

During this period, Hao Yueming's mood was really ups and downs.

First, it suffered from national policy adjustments, and more than ten million (the cost of packing and transporting foreign garbage) was almost wasted.

Fortunately, he had the help of noble people, and Uncle Chen found him a way to the Far East.

Hao Yueming was anxious for a few days when Chen Lidong asked him to sail the ship to Vladivostok. Chen Lidong said that he would first collect a hundred tons of foreign garbage to see if it could be used to generate electricity. If it could not be used, he would be exempted from the berth fee and let him sail the ship away.

Go ahead and do whatever you have to do.

Hao Yueming was cruel and bleeding again, so he persuaded the shipping company to drive the ship to the anchorage of the Golden Horn Bay in Vladivostok.

A ship was towed over, 100 tons were unloaded, and two wagons were loaded. Hao Yueming waited at the port without even looking for a hotel. He stayed up all day and night with his eyes open.

Fortunately, Chen Lidong worked quickly and received a call the next morning: It’s ready for use, unload, weigh, and pay!

It can be said that this person is very wealthy. Three days later, the goods were unloaded and shipped away. The payment for the goods was RMB 14.5 million. I asked him whether he wanted US dollars or RMB.

He gritted his teeth and asked for all the U.S. dollars. From the moment he decided to accept U.S. dollars, he had the idea of ​​continuing to buy American waste.

His relationship is with a boss named Zhang Xiaohua. Zhang Xiaohua came to Hong Kong Island from the mainland 10 years ago, established a waste recycling company on Hong Kong Island, and became the famous "King of Junk".

In 1990, Zhang Xiaohua registered a waste paper recycling company in Sam State. Now he has developed more than 10 waste recycling and packaging plants and established his own shipping company.

He has waste paper supply business with dozens of paper-making companies in Liaokou City, Lanshi, Jiangcheng, etc. With the rise of the steel industry in Jishi and Lanshi, Zhang Xiaohua began to transport scrap steel here, and he got acquainted with Hao Yueming and others.

Relations with steel companies.

Zhang Xiaohua was also the first to sell American waste to China, and later participated in reselling "foreign garbage". Most of the people who did this in China were related to Zhang Xiaohua.

But now, Hao Yueming doesn't even need to find Zhang Xiaohua, just contact those friends who are suffering on the line of life and death. Some people are willing to leave a pair of pants.

Hao Yueming worked carefully. He first contacted those traders and asked them about their cargo volume, value, shipping schedule and other information one by one. He asked them to wait for news, and then he began to report the situation to Chen Lidong in detail.

But Chen Lidong was too lazy to use his brain and told Hao Yueming that he was going to purchase foreign garbage at a CIF price of 180 yuan per ton, but the goods were registered as scrap steel and must not be publicized and must not be mixed with hazardous waste. For specific details, please contact Yuanheng Trading and Far East Trading.

Just fine.

Hao Yueming was completely relieved. He had the US dollars that Chen Lidong had just paid. He had just dealt with people from Far East Trading and Yuanheng Trading. Chen Lidong meant that he would be the general agent. The price of 150 yuan per ton was very reasonable.

Everyone should earn something.

Chen Lidong purchased more than 70,000 tons of foreign garbage from Hao Yueming at an average price of 180 yuan per ton. The reason for such a high price was because Chen Lidong took care of Hao Yueming. Chen Lidong asked Hao Yueming how much it cost, and Hao Yueming summed up the cost of purchasing the garbage and transportation.

180, Chen Lidong did not apply any discount and settled the fee according to his quotation.

Purchasing foreign garbage costs 3 to 5 US dollars per ton, and the shipping cost is about 5 US dollars. Adding the cost of leasing boxes, berth fees, port fees, transaction taxes, etc., the cost per ton is close to 15 US dollars. Chen Lidong determined the purchase price of 150 RMB

, is still very profitable.

Hao Yueming first contacted Far East Trading and negotiated shipping schedules, berths, water-to-rail transportation and other matters, and then contacted those traders. He did not go to any lengths and charged a transaction fee of 5%.

The friends were already furious, as every day of delay was a day of loss, so some people arranged to transport foreign garbage to the Far East without even signing a contract.

Afterwards, Hao Yueming contacted Zhang Xiaohua to discuss purchasing scrap steel and foreign garbage from Sam Country.

Zhang Xiaohua is also paying attention to the domestic crackdown on imported foreign waste. His business has been greatly affected. If one goes wrong, several waste recycling companies in Sam Country will have to close down. I heard from Hao Yueming that he has found a market.

, Zhang Xiaohua was overjoyed.

Zhang Xiaohua's company in Sam Country has reached solid waste (solid waste) treatment agreements with many enterprises, municipal units, etc. The production process is not complicated: the solid waste is sorted, and then most of it is packaged and shipped to China, including:

Paper is supplied to papermaking companies, scrap steel is transported to ironworks, and other recycled materials are transferred to professional companies in Sam State, such as controlled non-ferrous metals, materials that fall into the scope of hazardous waste, etc.

Finally, the sorted debris is crushed, briquetted, packed, boxed, and shipped to China.

A ton of goods shipped to China costs US$4 to US$5. If it is sent to a garbage disposal station for landfill or incineration, you have to pay US$5 to the processing unit. You won't make much money by doing this.

After Zhang Xiaohua worked for a while, he discovered that some people wanted to charge a certain fee for his garbage. This year, he had raised the price of garbage to 5 US dollars, making a lot of money. He didn't care about the garbage shipped to China.

No matter what impact it has on the environment of the motherland, what harm it has done to the health of the people, the primitive accumulation of capital is all dirty.

These foreign garbage were handed over to Chen Lidong, processed by the system, and recycled in a furnace. They were truly consumed and squeezed out.

When Hao Yueming was in high spirits and arranged to transport foreign garbage to the Far East, Chen Lidong returned to Nanchen Village.
Chapter completed!
