Time Smuggling Starting from the Year 2000

Chapter 196: Meiji Restoration (7)

There are three types of Japanese abalone: net abalone, Jipin abalone, and hemp abalone. Among them, net abalone is the smallest and the most expensive. A family with four abalones can pass it on to their family. As long as they are well preserved, the appreciation rate will definitely be higher than that of stock funds.

Net abalone with more than 4 heads is basically difficult to value - the abalone mentioned here is naturally wild abalone. Experienced people can easily distinguish different abalone based on the color of the abalone shell. Due to the type, food intake and growth environment Different, abalone shells will have obvious and irreversible differences. For example, when fed with compound feed made of brown algae or green algae, a bright green shell will grow. If fed with seaweed, the shell will grow dark red, while the whole shell will be brownish red. Most of them are wild abalone.

Generally speaking, there is no problem at all for selling 4 Japanese abalones for 800,000 yuan. In fact, when 0 abalones are sold for 10,000 yuan, 4 abalones are often priced but not available. , not something ordinary diners can eat.

Theoretically, the first abalone should be sold for twice the price, but such transactions are mostly conducted privately, and the exact price is always uncertain.

As for two-headed abalone and one-headed abalone, such things basically no longer existed in the first century. It only depends on how much the person who wants it can afford, not the real value.

The production of dried abalone was invented by the Japanese Mizushisuke Saburo around the beginning of the 18th century. The purpose was to facilitate tribute to the emperor of the Qing Dynasty. Unexpectedly, because the umami flavor of dried abalone is more intense, it has become superior to The best fresh abalone.

Mitsui Takasui naturally knew that Chinese people like to eat abalone. If this were not the case, he would not specially prepare abalone to entertain Huang Xuan. However, even in Japan, the price of abalone is extremely high. He naturally hesitated and said: " What do you think, Mr. Huang?”

"I know that you want to reform. The reform, like our Westernization Movement, is about learning from the West. But you have also seen that Britain, France, the Netherlands, and the United States are all countries that are asking for money. Mr. Li came here this time just to join forces with you and me to deal with these foreigners, so that we can make the price more reasonable." Huang Xuan laughed.

Mitsui Takasui did not believe Huang Xuan's words. Japan before the Meiji Restoration was far from qualified to be on an equal footing with China. He would rather believe that this was Huang Xuan's compliment, so he just smiled cautiously.

Huang Xuan touched his head and said, "I know you are a little worried about me, and that's okay." As he spoke, his fingers were still pointing on the table, as if he had a higher status than the other two people. He kept pace, looked at Mitsui Takasui and said: "I will give you another blueprint, a complete blueprint, and I can also teach you how to build a factory."

"Oh?" Mitsui Takasui responded, but did not nod.

Huang Xuan smiled casually and said: "I will teach you how to make steel, build a steel mill, produce pig iron, rails and wrought iron, using a Martin furnace. This is a new method invented by Siemens three years ago, and we have just obtained it. "The Martin furnace is an open hearth.

When they heard the word "steel factory", Mitsui and Iwasaki stood up and looked moved.

Japan's modern industrial development basically started during the Meiji Restoration period. However, after the founding of the country by Kurofune, a large number of Japanese began to look at the world. However, due to the political environment, they failed to develop vigorously.

However, in the past ten years, Japan has accumulated a large number of technical talents, allowing modern factories to be established as soon as the Overthrow War was successful.

Regarding the understanding of steel, Mitsui Takasui and Iwasaki Yataro may be the two most sober people in Japan.

The Mitsui Zaibatsu and Mitsubishi Zaibatsu have followed the path of heavy industry from the beginning. When these two people dreamed at night, they might not have thought about how to reform and where to reform.

A steel mill shines brighter in front of their eyes than an illusory ship.

Huang Xuan pretended not to notice the two men's gaffe, drank two sips of tea, and then said to Lorraine: "Bring me two more design drawings of the steel plant."

"The design of the entire steel plant requires about 500,000 drawings. Are you sure you want it now?"

Huang Xuan choked on a mouthful of tea. Iwasaki Yataro quickly patted him on the back. He lowered his head and said: "Let's take the general design first. You choose a suitable time. Don't be too advanced, even if it will be blown up later."

"What about the drawings of the state-owned Yawata Iron Works?"

"Whatever." Huang Xuan didn't know what these flags were, so he took out the drawings from his arms. This time, Mitsui's thin face almost touched the table, and he stared at his hands.

"Hey." Huang Xuan took out about a dozen small drawings, all of which were deliberately reduced by Lorraine. If not, a No. 1 drawing would be bulging when stacked.

Mitsui took it in his hands as if he had found a treasure, and opened it page by page. Although he couldn't quite understand it, he was happy in his heart.

Huang Xuan waited for the two of them to look at it for a long time before he said: "Our Hanyang Iron and Steel Plant cost 5 million taels of silver. Later it was renovated, and the Germans asked for another 000 million. The blueprints are all complete. All you need to do is go abroad and buy them." The machine will save you at least one million taels. I only need one-third, which is one million taels.”

This was definitely the lion's opening, but Mitsui Takasui didn't bargain. He didn't have a bottom yet, so he just said: "Sir, please spare us two days first, prepare the silver, and we will talk later."

Huang Xuan pouted, and the two of them lowered their heads to look at the drawings. At this time, Lorraine said: "Huang Xuan, the phone number of Sony President Shuhei Yoshida."

"Take it over." Huang Xuan sat back and leaned against the wooden house.

Shuhei Yoshida is an old man in his 60s. He just took office as president of Sony. However, he has been at Sony longer than Huang Xuan. He is an old goblin who worked hard from the bottom.

The news that Huang Xuan won a loan of 14 billion US dollars has long been spread among the upper class. His long list of patents has long been held by Shuhei Yoshida. The old man sitting in the office at that time was almost Just get over the heart attack.

Within Sony, some people have begun to propose abandoning Blu-ray. Although, it is not mainstream.

Huang Xuan sat in the restaurant that was built 2000 years ago and said in inaudible Chinese: "Hello, Mr. Yoshida."

Lorraine amplified the voice for him. To Shuhei Yoshida, it was just a very ordinary voice. There was a translator sitting next to him and responded: "Hello, Mr. Yoshida asked you if you are indeed interested in the Blu-ray project. "

It's a very direct question. For a Japanese, going straight to the point without any pleasantries can only mean that the other party is very angry.

Of course you should be angry. (To be continued. If you want to know what happened, please log in to .qidian. There are more chapters. Support the author and genuine reading!) (To be continued)
