Chapter 76

Yang He still placed a large number of orders with Wang Qiong'e. The development of a series of plans in his mind in the future is inseparable from these industrial raw materials.

Especially red copper, which is the basis of a series of copper alloys, plus a certain amount of zinc, that is, the white lead at this time, that is brass.

Brass has good ductility, low hardness, corrosion resistance, and is not prone to rust. It can be processed in various cold plastics, and is the first choice for guns and shells.

For example, a brass shell is commonly known as Qisan brass, which contains 30% zinc.

Red copper, plus a certain amount of tin, is bronze. Bronze is wear-resistant and can be widely used in sliding bearings, gears and other parts that require wear-resistant.

In terms of wear resistance, bronze is better than steel.

But Yang He asked, the price of silver per 100 kilograms of tin is 16 taels and 5 cents, which is also very expensive.

This made Yang He frowned. If industrialization was carried out, the money would be like a tide.

At this time, of course there are a wide range of finished products such as brass and bronze, but according to Yang He’s plan, it’s better to do some alloy ratios by yourself.

In fact, if the raw materials are required, the cost can be reduced.

At this time, the better-colored red copper is called "high copper" and the lower-colored one is called "low copper". Wang Qiong'e just mentioned high copper to Yang He, mainly Japanese copper and Luzon copper.

The copper is of better quality and contains a certain amount of silver, so merchants flock to it, driving the price to keep rising.

Among the local raw materials, there are also cheaper ones, such as Yunnan copper, which only only has 6 taels and 5 cents per 100 kilogram of silver. If they buy it locally, it will only 2 taels and 2 taels and 2 taels per 100 kilogram of silver, and white lead will also be 4 taels and 7 cents per 100 kilogram of silver.

But after leaving the province, the prices soared after all kinds of money are calculated.

Moreover, the copper is of poor quality, contains black lead, and is mixed with low tide, which is low copper.

There are also various types of scrap copper that are cheaper, including old coins from different generations, old copperware, waste cannons, etc., and are two taels and two cents per 100 kilograms of silver.

However, with Yang He's temperament, after he asked, Wang Qiong'e naturally recommended Gao Tong to him.

There are also lead used for ordinary muskets, which costs four cents and five cents per kilogram. Yang He asked for 20,000 kilograms in one breath.

The sulfur price is four cents and five cents per 100 kilogram, and Yang He also costs 20,000 kilograms.

Wang Qiong'e asked Yang He if he wanted gunpowder, and the price per kilogram of silver was 80 cents and 90 cents and 20 cents.

Yang He thought about it and forgot it. As soon as he heard the price, he knew that the purity of gunpowder was not high, so he should match it yourself.

There were so many things, Yang He bought a lot of things from Wang Qiong'e. Wang Qiong'e's wonderful eyes flashed, but she couldn't guess what Yang He wanted to do.

However, she was in a very happy mood when she started a big business and then grabbed a big customer.

Because they were about to rush to Huai'an, their group did not stop in Pizhou, but she would tell the local shopkeeper to receive Yang Xianggong and his group.

The goods that local shops do not have, will be collected in a complete collection in November at the latest, such as Su Gang, the ones that Yang Xianggong wants.

The price she offered Yang He was one pound, six taels and six cents. Yang He bought her two hundred pounds of Sugang and then went for more than one thousand taels of silver.

This is still a discount price. According to Wang Qiong'e, Su Gang is currently in Huai'an and has risen to nearly seven taels.

Yang He sighed in his heart that these tool steels are too expensive.

At the same time, I feel that this big-breasted girl is indeed strong, Su Gang also has a source of goods, and it is even more irrelevant to sell contraband products. She even openly asked him if he wanted gunpowder.

...

At this time, the venue had been almost cleaned up and the spoils were allocated. Uncle Huang came over and whispered to Wang Qiong'e.

Wang Qiong'e nodded, and her wonderful eyes turned on Yang He's face: "Good Master Yang, can you go on the road?"

Master Jiu was also watching, and the two of them answered him vaguely. He couldn't help but be amazed at Yang He's big deal. Mr. Yang seemed to buy a lot of things, which cost a lot of money. It seemed that building a farm would not require so much supplies, right?

However, this is Yang Xianggong's secret, so of course he is not easy to inquire about.

At this time, he also tentatively said: "Grandpa Yang?"

Yang He looked around and actually had many things to clean up, such as the handling of dead bandits' bodies, how to deal with the people who were trapped, how to take away some supplies, and the wounded had to instruct to make some stretchers, etc., and it would not be done for a while.

And after getting on the official road, it was not far from the destination, so it was not very urgent.

He smiled and said, "I have to stay for a while."

Wang Qiong'e and Jiuye were a little regretful. The two of them were thinking about getting on the road with Yang He, but thinking about them riding horses, Yang He and the others were walking, and they carried a lot of things. It seemed that he would accept the refugees, so the team became even more complicated.

Even if you travel with me, it is difficult to keep up and it is indeed not suitable to walk together.

Yang He smiled and said, "There is a banquet that will last forever. There will be meetings in the mountains and rivers, and we will always have a time to meet."

Wang Qiong'e also smiled and said, "It's unforgettable to part today. Another day, Mr. Yang came to Huai'an, and the little girl would definitely welcome her."

All three of them saluted: "Please."

Yang He saw Wang Qiong'e go back to the carriage gracefully, and the waves were supported by Wang Dian'er and got on the carriage.

The Ninth Master also rode on a horse. His eldest son Qian Likui and his fourth son Qian Lijue all jumped on a horse, and his daughter Qian Sanniang.

After she got on the horse, she sorted out her cloak, lowered the red-taxed felt hat, carried the heavy mace on her shoulder, and glanced at Yang He again.

The escorts also rode on horses, and some people held the war horses they received, even riding their hands. Obviously, these people also rode on horses, but there were no horses before.

Some people piled silver taels on the wheel truck, packed in bags, and piled up in full for 2,500 taels.

There were also serious injured people who also got into the car, and there were three bodies of the dead bodyguards who were corpses, which were carefully placed and covered with white cloth.

Judging from their appearance, they were obviously ready to prepare coffins and coffins for the dead corpse corpses after they arrived in Pizhou.

Master Jiu ordered, seeing that everything was ready, he shouted: "Get up the raid."

For a moment, the convoy slowly started, and the wheels began to drive, and the horses were walking with a loud noise. The copper bells hanging on their chests rang into pieces again.

The wolf teeth flag was very encouraging, and the Ninth Master rode his horse over, and he laughed and bowed: "Grandpa Yang, there will be a date in the future."

His son Qian Likui and the corpses beside him bowed, and Qian Lijue also hugged Yang He and clapped his fists.

Qian Sanniang pressed her felt hat low and covered her cloak. She didn't sound like a sound, walked a few steps, and glanced back at Yang He.

It was still a cold face, and the eyes on it were like stars in the cold night.

Wang Qiong'e's two horses were also pulling a carriage, and next to the carriage were the Changsui of the Yan Mansion, the archers, birds and guns, and the armed forces were all provided.

Uncle Huang, Manager Yan rode his horse next to him.

Uncle Huang smiled at Yang He and bowed.

Manager Yan had no expression on his face, but he also hugged Yang He.

The curtain of the car opened, revealing Wang Qiong'e's extremely charming face, with a light makeup and a goose face, which was covered in a rabbit's fur coat, luxurious and elegant.

She smiled at Yang He slightly.

The face of the little girl Wang Dian'er was also revealed beside her, and she shouted, "Grandpa Yang, you must come to Huai'an."

The carriage slowly drove in, and a row of wheeled carriages slowly moved away, and only the ding-ling and bronze ringtones of the ding-ling-ling were heard from time to time.
