Liang Guoyong fell into deep thought.
"Are you sure the ammonium bicarbonate will be eliminated?"
"Uncle Liang, your vision needs to be improved. Even if ammonium bicarbonate is not eliminated, it cannot be compared with urea. The uses of urea cannot be matched by ammonium bicarbonate. The uses of urea are far wider than ammonium bicarbonate."
Not to mention using it on the fields, in a few years compound fertilizers will appear and become popular.
Compound fertilizer is actually something that is made by mixing potassium fertilizer, urea diamine, etc. in proportion.
What’s the point of making compound fertilizer without urea?
"The project is good, but where can we get the equipment? Besides, we don't have the skills."
"Look, I told you to broaden your horizons. If I don't have the equipment and technology to give you a project, what's the point of saying that?"
"You have the equipment and technology?" Liang Guoyong was slightly surprised.
"When I was doing business with the Soviets in the north, I acquired a complete set of equipment and technology from them. I originally wanted to keep it for my own investment, but I realized it would take up too much land. Hongya County simply wouldn't give me such a large area. Another reason was that my motorcycle engine PR was successful at the time, so I had this thing left. If the county wanted it, I would sell it to them, including the equipment and technology, at full price."
Liang Guoyong blinked his eyes and looked at the smiling Wan Feng, feeling uneasy for some reason.
Although he didn't have much contact with Wan Feng, he had a lot of contact with Zhang Hai. Through Zhang Hai's introduction, he knew that Wan Feng was a capable person.
However, most capable people have some sinister and cunning elements mixed in with them. I wonder how much this kid's equipment and technical data will cost.
"How much do you want to transfer this equipment and technical data?"
"If someone from outside the area were to buy this equipment, I wouldn't even discuss it if it cost 20 million less."
Liang Guoyong's body trembled and his anus tightened.
Twenty million! How dare this little bastard ask for it!
“What if our county buys it?”
"Of course it's cheaper. How about a 50% discount, since we're from the same hometown, don't we?"
Liang Guoyong slammed the table and said, "Ten million! I should bring a doctor to see if your heart is black."
"Uncle Liang! Be gentle! Breaking your hand is no big deal, but if you break your daughter's table, be careful your son-in-law will take it out on her behind her back."
"So my hand is not worth as much as the table?"
"That depends on your perspective. From your perspective, your hands are certainly important, but from my perspective, your hands are not as valuable as this table. At least we can eat at this table later. What use are your hands?"
Zhang Hai, who had been sitting on the side and listening quietly, was speechless. It was the same thing again!
I'm afraid this kid is hopeless. This is probably how his life will be.
"Besides, even if the deal doesn't go through, there's still righteousness. You're trying to get a doctor to see what color my heart is. That's intolerable."
"You're holding back, ten million! Do you know how much ten million is?"
Tsk! You're bullying me because I've never seen money!
Ten million is ten million. I gave out ten million in bonuses just two days ago.
"Uncle Liang! Do you think ten million is too much? I have authentic Soviet equipment. Let me tell you, when it comes to fertilizer production, Soviet equipment is just as good as Western European equipment, and it's also very durable. If it breaks, you can just fix it and keep using it. Unlike Western equipment, if it breaks, they can't fix it without help. And I also have fertilizer production technology, which is priceless. I'm giving you ten million just for the sake of our fellow countrymen. Otherwise, don't even think about it."
Is it unethical to sell this equipment for 10 million?
Not black at all.
Just think about how many boxes of wine were used to buy this equipment.
One thousand boxes, two thousand boxes, or five thousand boxes?
Let’s calculate it as 5,000 boxes.
Five thousand cases of wine at fifteen dollars a case, that's one hundred thousand dollars, ah! Is that all I got for this?
It would be great if Zhang Zhiyuan were here, he would know how much it costs.
But it’s not much different, at most another 100,000 to the maximum.
Selling it for 10 million with a cost of 200,000 is indeed a bit cruel.
"Let's put the fertilizer project aside for now and talk about your second project."
“The second project is steelmaking.”
"Open a steel mill?"
Wan Feng nodded.
"We in Redcliff should indeed have a steel mill to meet the growing demand. So what's so special about your project?"
"If you think the fertilizer plant is too expensive at 10 million, then this steel plant in Hongya won't even start up."
"It's just a steel mill, what's so special about it?"
"The investment is very high, at least ten times that of a fertilizer plant."
"Over 100 million yuan! What kind of steel plant needs so much money?" Liang Guoyong's eyes almost popped out.
"This isn't an ordinary steel mill. This is a special steel mill. Do you know what special steel is used for?"
Liang Guoyong shook his head.
"For building warships. Do you know what business I've been doing with the Soviets in the north these past two years?"
"How would I know? That little bastard from the Guang family didn't even tell me. He just shook his head when I asked."
Haha! The Han Guang family's sense of confidentiality is truly undeniable.
"I was doing steel business with the Soviets on the border. A lot of the steel used in my factory came from the Soviets. They were cheaper and of much higher quality than ours. And that's just civilian steel. I also sold a lot of it to the military, so to speak. Two or three hundred thousand tons of it. See? Our military has to import steel from foreign countries to build warships. How big do you think this gap is?"
If this is true, there is a lot of room for improvement.
Liang Guoyong pondered for a while: "You also have equipment for this thing?"
Wan Feng quickly shook his head: "I really don't have that. The steel mill needs all kinds of equipment, and these equipment are too many and too big to be brought back."
"There's no steel mill in the country that can produce this kind of steel. Isn't it ridiculous that we don't have anything?"
"Hey! I don't have the equipment, but I do have the technology. I got the technology for smelting special steel from the Soviet Union."
"Isn't having skills without equipment equivalent to nothing?"
"Why is it equal to zero? You can handle the equipment yourself. Technology is the key."
It is better to have smelting technology but worry about equipment than to have equipment but no technology.
"I think this project is going to be a daunting one. With such a large investment, I still have to figure out the equipment myself. If it fails, won't everything be wasted?"
"That's your business. If you don't want it, I'm going to sell it to Angang. I think they'll be very happy to take it."
Liang Guoyong fell silent again, this time for a long time.
"I'll take these two projects back to the county for study. I think the urea project is a sure thing, but I'm not sure about the steel plant."
It was normal for the county to hold a meeting to decide this, and Liang Guoyong certainly could not make the decision himself.
