"I'm very happy to meet you, Mr. Qin. We are Osenhaub. Our company's main business is gas tanks." Soon, Rem Koohaas, a European who came to buy deck steel, came to the office of Mingzhou Steel Company. After seeing Qin Tao, he immediately identified his identity.

"I'm very curious. Do you need deck steel for producing gas tanks?" Qin Tao looked at the other party with a smile. These people didn't know how to hide it, right? They actually used such a bad reason?

"Mr. Qin, we not only produce household gas tanks, but also produce gas tanks used in larger gas filling stations and gas transfer trucks." Kuhaas said: "You also know that in Europe, the call for environmental protection is getting higher and higher. Traditional fuels are beginning to be resisted, and the demand for gas fuel is getting higher and higher. However, the sites of our gas filling stations are fixed. In order to accommodate more gas, they need gas tanks for storage with greater pressure resistance. Therefore, we hope to have high-strength steel, and the higher the strength, the better. Looking around the world, only the deck steel you produce can meet our needs."

This reason is reasonable, Qin Tao nodded.

Many people talk about Europeans who like to drive hatchbacks and relish, saying that Europeans know cars, Europeans buy hatchbacks, regardless of the differences in national conditions. Europe does not engage in infrastructure construction. Many houses have a history of hundreds of years, and many streets are also narrow sections suitable for carriages. Europeans buy hatchbacks, on the one hand, everyone has a car, and the rear seat is almost useless. On the other hand, the streets are narrow, and hatchbacks are easy to walk.

There are many requirements for special gas filling stations. They should not be too close to residential areas, and there should be flammable factories nearby, etc., so there are very few conditions to meet these conditions. It is impossible for existing gas filling stations to expand their scale, and they can only take the road of increasing pressure.

However, this is just an apparent reason, and Qin Tao will certainly not be fooled by these statements.

"If a customer comes to buy, we must of course meet the needs of the customers. The customer is God." Qin Tao spoke.

Kuhas was immediately excited. After a few days, everyone here was shirking the blame. What the leader was gone and what had to be reported to President Qin, but he just refused to give him a definite answer. Now, he finally had a positive answer, and he was very happy.

But then, he looked at Qin Tao with some concern: "Mr. Qin, how is the price of this kind of steel? We are for civilian use. If the price is too high, we may not be able to afford it!"

"The deck steel used for this type of aircraft carrier is very difficult to manufacture and the price is not cheap. However, if you need it, we cannot ask for a lot of prices." Qin Tao thought for a while, and then said, "How about 44,444 US dollars per ton?"

Hongxing Shipyard wants 50,000 US dollars per ton, and Magang in Ural is even higher. Now, Qin Tao's offer is the lowest, but this offer confused Kuhas: "Why is such a number?"

"Mr. Koohas, do you understand music?" Qin Tao asked the other party.

Koohaas nodded.

"So, what do this number read in the score?"

"hair."

"Yes, in our Chinese meaning, it means to make money. When we export this kind of steel plate, we just want to make money. We make money, you also make money. We make money together, how about it?"

Xu Zhengyang, who was following Qin Tao, was laughing. What about hair hair is just to make fun of the people in front of him. If this kind of steel is resold by them, for A San, it would be a dead end!

This time it will be even worse than the last time.

"Oh, so that's it. Mr. Qin, we ordered 500 tons in the first batch. I hope you can export all the special welding technology of this steel plate and related welding rods to us." Rem Koohaas continued.

"Of course there is no problem with this. If you have an extra ton of price, you can pack a portion of the welding rod for you."

"Thank you, Mr. Qin." Kuhas was very happy.

"Mr. Koohaas, I hope you can understand that although we have the production technology of deck steel, this steel is at the strategic level. According to the rules, we can only use it for our own use and cannot export it at all." Qin Tao began to get a vaccination: "Now, we decided to export this steel to you just because you are civilian. Therefore, our contract needs to sign relevant terms. This batch of exported steel is only allowed to be made of gas tanks, not for other purposes, nor for transfer to third parties. Otherwise, we will hold you accountable and ask for five times the compensation."

Koohas was stunned.

"In addition to the deck steel used to make aircraft carriers, our ultra-high strength steel can also be used to make the shell of a submarine. It can dive to a depth of at least 500 meters. If used as military use, it can easily cause the power in a certain area to lose balance." Qin Tao said: "You should understand these principles, right?"

"Yes." Kuhaas nodded: "Mr. Qin, I have another requirement. After this transaction is reached, if our business is good, we will order more steel in the future. I hope you can export it to us at the same price!"

"Of course there is no problem with this." Qin Tao nodded: "The price will not rise within five years."

"good!"

The export agreement was reached in this way. The specific contract terms were handled by relevant personnel, so Qin Tao would not need to be involved. When Rem Koohaas left, Zhang Jinxi frowned and said, "Europe has begun to gradually turn to natural gas. Unlike gas tanks, they have to use double-layer tanks made of stainless steel."

Although they are commonly called gas, they are actually different. Initially, gas refers to the combustible gas generated during coking, and then the petroleum gas produced in the oil fractionation tower. After liquefaction, it becomes liquefied petroleum gas. Now the main use is natural gas that can be used directly from underground mining.

This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! These gases are different, and the gas tanks used are also different.

Qin Tao smiled: "Of course, using our deck steel as gas tanks is definitely a loss, but why are you so familiar with these?"

Qin Tao was a little curious at this time. Although Zhang Jinxi is also an experienced technician, his technology is in steelmaking, not in the finished steel products.

"Mr. Qin, our steel company has established a special gas tank company." Zhang Jinxi said: "Using the steel plates we produce ourselves to make gas tanks can increase the profits of the steel plates."

Qin Tao looked at Zhang Jinxi with praise: "Our steel company is so large, you still won't give up any profit growth point!"

"That's of course, Mr. Qin, we use the model of establishing branches in the head office." Zhang Jinxi said: "Last year, several workers in our steel factory wanted to change gas tanks and were reluctant to buy them, so they made a few of them. As a result, they were seen by people outside and wanted to buy them, saying that they were of better quality than those gas tanks sold on the market. As soon as these workers put together, they put forward new requirements to the company to set up a special gas tank factory. After a simple market analysis, we agreed to this plan, allocated a piece of open land for them, and built a special gas tank factory for them to tinker with."

Mr. Qin rarely comes once, so of course Zhang Jinxi needs to introduce more.

"The cost is calculated independently. They take steel plates from the factory and also follow the market price. However, their benefits are very good. At the end of the year, their newly established gas tank factory has created five million in profits for us. The workers who set up gas tank factories will also share one million in profits by the end of this year." Zhang Jinxi was also very proud of this.

As long as the workers in the factory have courage and vision, they can set up a new business! This way, they can make more money and the company can also share more profits.

"Why are there so many?" Even Qin Tao was surprised.

There is indeed a market for gas tanks. Qin Tao knows this. After all, the domestic economy is constantly developing and cities are building new houses. However, natural gas pipelines have not been laid on a large scale. Therefore, it is not convenient for residents living in buildings in the city to burn coal and use gas tanks for cooking. This is a large market. Even the wealthy people in rural areas will use gas tanks at home to cook.

The demand for gas tanks is very high, but it is incredible that a gas tank factory that has just been established for less than a year can actually make so much money!

"Yes, we can't believe that the sales of our Mingzhou Group's gas tanks are so good. It is said that a foreign customer has recently come to buy our gas tanks."

Foreign customers?

Qin Tao was also very excited: "Is that so? Let's go over and take a look."

This gas tank factory is located in a corner of the steel company. It has a wall separated from the steel company. It is considered to be independently operated, and there are also doors that open directly outwards. However, the back door of the gas tank factory is still open, which is convenient for the transportation of steel plates in the factory.

After Qin Tao and others came in through the back door, they saw various machinery and equipment ringing in a large production workshop, and sparks from electric arcs splashed, forming a lively production scene.

"Director Zhang, Zhang Ming, come here, come and welcome Mr. Qin!" Zhang Jinxi shouted loudly.

A man wearing a welding mask was carefully welded, stood up, took off the mask, and when he saw Qin Tao clearly, he immediately threw down the welding gun and ran over quickly.

"Really, Mr. Qin came here, why didn't he call us in advance and let us prepare." Zhang Ming complained a few times, and when he ran over, he said to Qin Tao awkwardly: "Mr. Qin, I'm a little confused here."

"It's okay, I've also made a temporary decision." Qin Tao said: "This is the first time I have seen the production of gas tanks."

"Mr. Qin, it's actually very simple. I'll introduce it to you." Zhang Ming said happily: "From here, we transported 2.5 cm thick steel plates from the steel mill are first cut into a circle, and then preheated to remove stress. After pressing them on this stamping machine, they become half a cylinder body. Then we weld them, add the bottle mouth and base and stamp them, and even if they are finished. We have a lot of foreign trade orders this time, so we work overtime to produce. According to what you said, it's nothing that we sell our products to China. Selling them abroad and making money from foreigners is a skill!"

Zhang Ming was very proud of saying these words, but Qin Tao frowned.

"What's wrong, Mr. Qin?" Zhang Jinxi saw that Qin Tao's expression was unhappy and asked quickly.

“Have the customer only purchased gas tanks?”

"No, I also purchased a batch of steel pipes from our steel factory, and just took a ship of cargo and sent it."

And steel pipes?

"Are there two types? One of them is thick, and you can stuff the gas tank in?"

"Mr. Qin, you are so amazing, you know this?"

"Then I guess, the delivery location for this batch of goods is in the Middle East."

"Yes, Mr. Qin, you are so awesome, you guessed it right!"

This is almost certain!

Qin Tao frowned even deeper: "Do you know what else can gas tanks and steel pipes be combined into?"

Everyone shook their heads, how could the gas tank and steel pipe be combined together?

"I'm bored today, so I'll design a new product for you." Qin Tao said, and began to direct: "Now, cut a few right-angle triangles in the scrap of the steel plate. One meter of thin steel pipes, and three meter of thick steel pipes."

Everyone was a little curious and didn't know what Qin Tao was going to do, but this matter still sounded very interesting.

After the discharge, Qin Tao continued to command: "Weld the fine steel pipe to the bottom of the gas tank, and weld the other end to those right triangles!"

This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content later! The sparks of the welding were splashed, Zhang Ming personally welded, but after the welding was made, he frowned: "Mr. Qin, this is a bit like a weapon!"

"Now, tilt the thick steel pipe and stuff the gas tank in!"

"Mortar?"

"No, it should be more like a rocket!" Zhang Jinxi said: "A gas tank is used as a warhead, and the iron pipe plug behind it launches medicine, pushing the entire device to fly. This thick tube is used as a directionalizer!"

No matter what it is, it is a weapon in any case!

If you buy one separately, it is not very obvious. Now, if you put these together, you can clearly find out what it can do: build weapons with local techniques!

Any gas tank used by residents needs to be inspected every few years, because they are afraid of leaks and explosions, which will cause extremely vicious accidents. Now, if it is specially used as a warhead, it will be powerful! If it is blown up, it will definitely be a large area!

Thinking of this, everyone felt a little chilling.

"Mr. Qin, it seems that we have to cancel this transaction. The customer did not intend to use these things as civilian facilities, but planned to build such weapons. We cannot ruin our reputation."

At this time, everyone already understood Qin Tao's worries.

If these products exported by Mingzhou Group are misappropriated as weapons, they will definitely be condemned. If you make a big profit, it would be fine. The problem is that you will make hard money and there is no need to bear this infamy!

"Sell, why don't you sell it? We open the door to do business, of course we have to sell it. The aircraft carrier deck steel can be sold. What can't be sold in this kind of gas tank and civilian pipeline?" Qin Tao's words became relaxed again.

Can it be sold?

Everyone was a little surprised: "But, this will cause trouble for our group!"

"Then let's change our name." Qin Tao said: "Don't put our steel stamps on the gas tank. All the gas tank colors are sprayed in the blue color. As for the steel pipes, at most, spray a code of GB/T 3091-93."

This number is a code in the building materials standard. Its corresponding product type is "galvanized welded steel pipes for low-pressure fluid transportation", that is, water pipes. Therefore, even if it is discovered, it is just thought it is an ordinary water pipe. The exported building materials are used as weapons, which is not the responsibility of the exporter.

"Mr. Qin, according to the basic export rules, our export products need to spray the manufacturer's name." Zhang Jinxi continued: "If you don't spray your name, will it be a bit irregular?"

"Well, if you want to spray the manufacturer's name, then spray a few irrelevant characters. Anyway, foreigners don't know our square characters, such as spraying Laiyang steel pipes or the like."

Laiyang Steel Pipe Factory was only established in July this year. Now the factory has not yet appeared. Qin Tao wants to spray such handwriting, so of course no one will come to protest. They can even register the trademark of Laiyang Steel Pipe Factory. When exporting these things to the outside world, they will be named Laiyang Steel Pipe.

Rich metal is the rich, and poor Laiyang steel pipe!

"Well, if we spray a logo that has nothing to do with us, even if something happens in the future, we won't blame it on us." Zhang Jinxi was finally satisfied: "Wait for us to find someone who has nothing to do with, and we will register a Laiyang Steel Pipe Factory. In the future, we spray the logo on all three products in a complete set, so we can ensure that everything is foolproof."

"Yes, thanks to Mr. Qin coming, otherwise we might have slandered Mingzhou Group." Zhang Ming was also in lingering fears.

"It's okay, these are all trivial matters. Even if I don't take it into consideration, it doesn't matter." Qin Tao said and yawned: "Okay, let's get here today, I'm going back."

After saying that, Qin Tao glanced at the welded device again: "When the customer comes to pick up the goods, he can put this thing outside and let the customer see it. If they want to ask, don't answer anything, and move the device away quickly."

"Yes." Zhang Ming knew that Mr. Qin wanted to point out what you bearded men want to do. We all know what we are so bearded!

On the return car, Xu Zhengyang was driving while scanning Qin Tao.

"If you have any questions, ask." Qin Tao said with a smile.

"Mr. Qin, our Mingzhou Group is not short of this money. Why should we take the risk of selling these things?"

"Don't forget, we are still arms dealers."
