Chapter 520: 520： 520: Bundled sales

After all, many key technologies can not be produced by relying on knowledge. If they are produced by magicians and relying on alchemy, their prices will be prohibitive even for nobles.

For example, the gun rods currently in service in the Kingdom of Cleveland are self-produced and self-sufficient. They are clearly air cannon rods. Compared with the electromagnetic rods, they are much inferior in power, but the price is the G43 rods of Merlot. More than doubled.

This is the importance of a sound industrial system.

Although the industrial system of Merlot is still being gradually improved, for the Kingdom of Cleveland, it is more than a little bit advanced.

The real key reason why Aslan didn't hand over the mobile phone to the agent of the Royal Academy of Magic was the monitoring of the mobile phone communication.

After all, the first batch of Kyoto people to use the magic phone must be the nobles of Kyoto, especially the ministers of the DPRK. Once they are also used to using the magic phone to communicate, a lot of information can be easily obtained.

After all, the people of Sinoland have not yet realized the privacy of communication.

"The Marquis of Aslan is really refreshing! I believe that in the near future. Our magic communication business will surely spread throughout the kingdom." Duke Durandal said with a smile on his face.

Aslan did not continue to answer this question, but directly said: "Duke Durandal will come to Merlot this time, not just for the business of magic communication!"

Duke Durandal nodded, without any embarrassment, and said openly: "It's about the alliance between our two sides, with business exchanges."

"Oh!" Aslan said noncommittal, saying nothing about the alliance.

"Business is fine, but can you give me products that satisfy me? My current vision is very picky, and I don't like ordinary products either." Aslan said slowly.

The former Duke Durandal would only sneer at Aslan's arrogant remarks.

But when he saw the prosperity of Melo City, he had no bottom in his own heart.

The textile cloth business dare not even mention it. Nowadays, the linen and cotton cloth produced in Merlot has been sold throughout the kingdom. Both nobles and commoners can afford it. Many old textile workshops in the kingdom have completely lost their living space and changed to others. make a living.

Now many nobles have switched jobs to plant flax, sold raw materials to the Tianping Chamber of Commerce, and then purchased discounted products from the Tianping Chamber of Commerce, and established a solid supply-demand relationship.

The Tianping Chamber of Commerce has always only purchased a variety of industrial raw materials, and rarely purchased products produced by the Kingdom of Cleveland and the Shifang Alliance, which caused quite a lot of criticism from the nobles who came to run the workshop.

Fortunately, because of transportation costs, the cheap goods produced in Merlot are not very competitive, and these small workshops can continue to run.

Duke Durandal took out the list of goods he had prepared in advance, and his old face couldn't help but blush.

Aslan just took a cursory glance and couldn't help laughing.

9,000 tons of pig iron ingots, 1,500 tons of refined iron ingots, and 98 tons of steel ingots.

Seeing this value, Aslan couldn't help laughing.

"These are your output this year?"

Duke Durandal took a look, nodded and said: "The steel in the hands of the nobles in the northern provinces, except for the weapons and equipment, is here."

After all, today's mainland mainly uses iron-making processes, but unlike Merlot, there is a furnace for melting molten iron. The melting point of pure iron is as high as 1538°C. Without the use of coal mines, kilns that burn wood and charcoal cannot melt it. , And can only reduce iron ore into sponge iron full of impurities.

Then the blacksmith stuffed solid solvents such as plant ash into the gap, and repeatedly smelted and forged, so that impurities such as silicon can be turned into glass-like **** and knocked out.

When such hard work has cleaned up the impurities in the iron, the carbon content in the iron has generally fallen below 0.2%, which becomes too soft wrought iron and cannot be made into a weapon. It is necessary to increase the carbon content in the iron and disturb the excessively neat crystal lattice. , So that the purer wrought iron becomes hard alloy steel.

The longest-used method in Sino Continental’s history is the ‘carburizing method’, where cast iron is cut into thin slices and burned in a charcoal fire. The carbon will infiltrate at high temperatures to form a hard surface with higher carbon content.

However, if you want to obtain satisfactory steel, that is, iron-carbon alloy with carbon content between 2% and 0.2%, the process of tempering has just begun. Fusion.

Then the wrought iron with less carbon and the fully carbonized pig iron are repeatedly folded and forged according to the proportion, so that the two alloys are mixed fairly uniformly to form a fairly tough steel.

The surface of such steel can always see the black and white layered pattern of two ferroalloys, so it is often called "pattern steel". This is also the watershed between noble knights and ordinary knights.

Almost all armors and weapons used by noble knights are made of patterned steel, while ordinary knights can be made of ordinary steel. As for the armor of soldiers, they are generally made of wrought iron and pig iron, and the defense effect is worrying.

"What about the iron ore output?" Aslan asked slowly.

Compared with these ‘expensive’ iron ingots, he prefers cheap iron ore.

"These are not included in the trade list." Duke Durandal said doubtfully.

He is not Yitzhak, he is not clear about the terrorist steel production of Merlot. This is also the reason that Merlot has only imported iron ore, but rarely exported steel products.

"I am not interested in the steel produced in the Kingdom at all. It is expensive and the quality is not as good as our self-produced steel." Aslan shook his head and refused.

Duke Durandal suddenly flashed his inspiration and said with a smile: “It’s not without a problem to buy iron ore. Nowadays, the Maksim Empire restricts the kingdom’s import and export trade. To ensure that the iron and steel industry of the northern aristocrats does not go bankrupt, one ton of iron ore is bundled with one hundred catties of iron ingots."

Aslan closed the list unhurriedly and said, "Ten Jin!"

"No, eighty catties!"

In the end, under the stalemate between the two sides, the ratio was set at one ton of iron ore to fifty catties of iron ingots.

Aslan did not expect that Duke Durandal would be so familiar with the bundled sale.

As for all kinds of materials, this set is indispensable, and it was only when Aslan lifted the table in the end, he was somewhat restrained.

The two parties initially signed a trade contract worth 10 million gold coins. At the same time, they also purchased two million tons of grain from the Melox Province, which is enough to solve the urgent needs of the Kyoto area.

After all, the relief food used for refugees cannot be pure food. Most of them are boiled with a small amount of wheat and leaves and grass roots, as long as they don't die.

All used for relief of refugees, two million tons of food can be used as 10 million tons of food.
