Accompanied by Zhong Guanguan, Yang Rui turned the factory again, and then turned the entire 6 lines and places, and saw that they were all in order, thinking that Zhong Guanguan was going to study in Germany at the end of the year, and asked: "You are doing very well, the question is how your deputy arranged." β
Zhong Guanguan also knew that he was going to leave soon, and said: "I arranged three students to take it every day, all of them are students of the instrument hall, and they are selected according to your test, and I will probably be able to take over when I leave." Yu Zixun also sent two people to go, the person was chosen by you, and the work on his side was different from mine, but I don't know if the two little guys could take over when he left. Zhong Guanguan mentioned that he was ready to accept the two students who worked in Yu Zixun in Japan, selected by Yang Rui, one is called Zhang Shi, and the other is called Sheng Shudong, who look at them are very sophisticated people, people in this era are particularly precocious, and they are mainly managing dealers in Japan, and they want to control dealers rather than being controlled by dealers, which requires people to be very sophisticated, and they can't be impulsive about feelings and sex, otherwise they will be sent by dealers to get a few geisha to get it done, then everything will be in vain.
Zhang Shi and Sheng Shudong are both from poor backgrounds, they began to do chores in the canteen at the age of ten, they have seen everyone in the past seven years, they are skilled in receiving people and things, they are one wooden, one is weak, but the wooden one is not stupid, the weak is not timid, of course, Yang Rui spent a lot of ways to try this result, not only took them to drink flower wine, and then spent money to buy the bustard's experience - really lustful and fake lustful people are the most experienced, and they also found a gang of hooligans to find fault and beat them, and he hid aside to watch the play. After various tests, the two of them were chosen, which was painstaking.
Now listening to Zhong Guanguan mention those two people, Yang Rui smiled and said: "You can't just rely on any method, the key is to check and supervise more often, now there is a telegram is very fast, and the passenger ferry is also very convenient, just keep an eye on it, no matter how good a person is, it will become bad if he doesn't supervise it." You and Yu Zixun have to work hard to learn German, wait for December to pass, prepare for the entrance exam in the middle of next year, German schools are very strict, not only can not enter without strength, but also can not graduate. β
Speaking of his studies, Zhong Guanguan was still very confident, and said: "If it happens, you can rest assured." Yu Zixun and I will not disgrace the Chinese. Yang Rui wanted to correct him when he said this, but in the current environment, he could only accept such a statement, so he had to say: "Xianfang, just work hard, don't rush for quick success." It's because you love to learn so you learn, not because you want to achieve what goal to learn, most of those who study for what goal are craftsmen, just like the imperial examination, reading is for being an official, who still reads after being an official, what I want is that you and Zixun can become masters, such people have nothing to ask for, and learn just because they like it. β
Zhong Guanguan was frightened by Yang Rui's expectations, and didn't speak for a long time, Yang Rui saw him say this: "Chemistry is still a very young science, and there are many things that have not been revealed, especially organic chemistry and chemical engineering, which are blank. You're dealing with a half-opened wasteland, and there are a lot of empty spaces, and as long as you go in the right direction, then nothing is impossible. β
After finishing the question of the successor, Yang Rui remembered the submission of the application for salt tax exemption submitted last month, and asked: "Did Mr. Xu Huafeng come forward to hand over the salt tax reduction last month, and what is the result?" β
Zhong Guanguan was still thinking about Yang Rui's words before, but he woke up when he heard the words and said, "It's just right, it's just right." β
Seeing that he was stupid, Yang Rui laughed.
Zhong Guanguan knew that what he said was not up to the mark, and corrected and said: "Agreed, Governor Wei agreed, or Mr. Xu worked hard, saying that the imperial court implemented a new policy, so everyone raised funds to build a factory, and said that this technology is only available in the United Kingdom, Germany, and the United States, not in other countries, and Japan does not have it. β
I can't imagine that Mr. Xu Huafeng is such an honest person as he will play false, this submission is not written in a tone with the false reports of later generations, no wonder a person can come out to run a soap factory, it is not simple. This thing must be done, then the next thing is to contact the salt factory, which uses nearly 20 tons of salt every day, which is not a small amount. "It's good to approve it, how is the contact between the two Huai?" Yang Rui asked.
Earlier, when it was decided to set up a chlor-alkali factory, Zhong Guanguan was arranged to learn about Huaiyan, Zhong Guanguan said: "I said last month that I went to find out, and now Huaiyan is far from the scale of Qianlong, at that time there were many salt merchants with a net worth of tens of millions, and now the richest is said to be only a few million net worth." But I calculated the cost, Huaibei is basically drying salt, the salt particles are large, the quality is strong, the price is also low, in the salt field per catty of salt, Huainan is the decoction method, the salt made is pure, the crystallization is fine, but the price is five Wen. β
"This price is expensive," Yang Rui was a little surprised, but thinking that the salt retailed outside now is seven or eight cents per catty, and the accounting copper coins are also around forty or fifty yuan, and the cost of these four wen is nothing in the selling price, thinking of this section and signaling him to continue: "I also inquired about the freight rate, according to our amount, it will be about two yuan per catty when it is shipped to Shanghai." If it is specially contracted for others to ship, then the price is cheaper, and it is possible to pay a penny. It was not easy to talk about before, but now that it has been promised tax exemption, it is easy to discuss. People want buyers like us. "The understanding of the Lianghuai salt industry makes Zhong Guanguan feel confident about getting suppliers.
Yang Rui also agrees with this, the Lianghuai salt industry is overcapacity, and a big buyer used to be very popular. He asked, "What about the coal?" β
"We can only use Kaiping coal. In order to save money, we can use the end of the coal, three pieces of hexagons per ton of departure, and the freight rate to Shanghai is one piece, a total of four pieces of seven corners, which is basically the same as the worst coal in Taiwan, Japan, but everyone does not like to use Japanese coal and Taiwanese coal, which is often adulterated. After Zhong Guanguan finished speaking, he couldn't help but sigh long when he thought that the Kaiping Coal Mine was occupied by the British through the Gengzi Incident.
"Don't think about it, one day we'll get back what we've lost sooner or later." Yang Rui knew why he sighed, and comforted him and comforted himself. "Cheap Japanese are not as good as cheap British, and we will use Kaiping coal in the future."
Zhong Guanguan nodded, although he didn't understand why Yang Rui hated Japan so much, and he didn't understand what he meant by saying that he would get it back sooner or later, but he still chose to believe it.
Knowing the price of coal and salt, the cost is very easy to calculate, Yang Rui took out a notepad and began to calculate, the equipment maintenance of the equipment is forty yuan per day, and the labor salary is one hundred yuan, a total of about one hundred and forty yuan. Ten tons of pure caustic soda and twenty tons of 33% hydrochloric acid are produced every day. Salt needs 20 tons, 6 pieces per ton for a total of 120 yuan, electricity needs 30,000 kilowatt-hours, based on the consumption of 2 kilograms of coal per kilowatt-hour, 30,000 kilowatt-hours need 60 tons of coal for 280 yuan. All the costs per day add up to 540 yuan, spread out among the 30 tons of products, each ton is only 18 yuan, which is only a fraction of the 11 per ton of hydrochloric acid and 150 per ton of caustic soda purchased from outside.
It's really a profiteer, it was estimated that after the chlor-alkali plant was built, the cost of hydrochloric acid could be reduced by 5o% of the cost, and now it seems that it is far more than that, the cost of producing hydrochloric acid has been reduced by 8o%, if the caustic soda can be completely sold out, then the daily profit is 3,000 yuan, and all the investment can be recovered in nine months, if the caustic soda is not sold for a pound, then it will take fourteen and a half months to recover the cost, it is really high input and high output, and the profit is higher than that of monosodium glutamate, and the huge profit.
Zhong Guanguan saw that Yang Rui was intoxicated, and began to pour cold water, "Don't be happy too early, you haven't calculated the cost of packaging, and although the price of salt is low, there are too many impurities in it, I'm afraid that it can't be used directly, and it will have to crystallize again, so the cost will increase a lot." β
"The cost of packaging is not a big problem, but the salt is not good, and there is not a set of pretreatment equipment for the salt in the equipment we ordered?" Yang Rui seems to have remembered that this thing has been arranged a long time ago.
Zhong Guanguan was also worried about this matter, "Hey, I only found out today, I showed Huaibei salt to Bieber before you came, and he thought that there were too many salt hybrids after experimenting, and the proportion of refined salt was only 5o." β
"Where did you get this salt, why do you only have half of the salt and half of the soil?" Yang Rui was dumbfounded, and suddenly thought of those salt merchants, and probably knew what was going on in his heart, and said: "Don't worry, it was those who sold salt who added it to it, and half of the salt was generally earthy, and those profiteers deliberately added it to it in order to increase the weight." You go to find someone to find a few catties of authentic Huaibei salt, without going through the hands of salt dealers, I bet that the salt content of that salt will not be less than 95%"
Thinking of this meaning, Zhong Guanguan still felt that Yang Rui's judgment was right, and the blackest person in the world was really a salt merchant. No wonder foreigners say that the Chinese are eating soil, and it is all made by these profiteers.
While they were talking, a student came over and said, "Mr. Yang, Master Yu said that Master Zhang Si'an came to visit and wanted to talk to Mr. Yang." Mr. Yu asked Mr. to go back. β
Yang Rui was confused, how could there be an adult who named him, but it didn't seem to be malicious, if he really came to arrest someone, he wouldn't be so polite, and then he looked at Zhong Guanguan, Zhong Guanguan was not familiar with this Lord Zhang. Yang Rui had no choice but to say: "You go back and tell sΓΉ first, I'll be there in three quarters of an hour." β
As soon as he entered the living room of the instrument hall, Yang Rui saw Yu Huizu talking with a gentleman-like person, who was in his fifties, his thick mustache was already a little gray, and he was not wearing an official robe but a long shirt and a short jacket, knowing that this should be the so-called Lord Zhang, Yang Rui hurriedly greeted him, and the old gentry saw this young man in a suit come in, I don't know who it was, he looked at Yu Huizu, Yu Huizu laughed and said: "Mr. Zhang Si, this is the Yang Rui Yang Jingcheng you want to see." He said and wanted Yang Rui to explain: "This is Mr. Zhang Si of Nantong, or the famous champion of the dynasty." β
Yang Rui just gave a polite salute, so he didn't care who this person was, he was not a sociable person in the first place. Seeing that this adult was not wearing an official uniform, he knew that today's visit was definitely not a business matter, but he didn't understand what this adult was doing, but it was not easy to ask such a rudeness, so he had to sit down and wait slowly.
Yu Huizu should have chatted with Mr. Zhang Si for a long time, admired him very much, and introduced a lot of information to him, which was nothing more than some beautiful words, Yang Rui didn't dare to make a mistake, and patiently listened to the echo and laughed. Mr. Zhang Si was very surprised to see Yang Rui, he had read Yang Rui's book, he bought the ones published before, he didn't pay much attention to the title at first, but the author's name is very familiar, one of the six gentlemen of Wuxu is also called Yang Rui, open it and see, the book is written by another Yang Rui, the literature and science are still smooth, but the literary style is lacking, not very sophisticated, but the content inside can not be put down at a glance, what is said is the way to help the world, and then look at the preface and learn that the author is studying in Europe and the United States for many years, So I thought that this person should be thirty or forty years old, but today I saw that he was only a hairy boy about twenty years old, so he was very surprised.
