With that said, these businessmen from Southeast Asian countries looked at Zhang Han expectantly.
This coal is so cheap and easy to use, who doesn't want it, so these businessmen also made requests.
Zhang Han laughed.
The protagonist Li Hao actually even thought of this level.
Already told what to do.
Zhang Han smiled and said:
"Of course it can be sold to you, but you are not from us after all, and the discount we will give you will not be very great."
"The price given to you is naturally not as cheap as our Lingnan tribes."
"We want to increase the price by 150%, [-] Wen per kilo, and all countries that trade with us must open their coal mines to us!"
Among these requirements, the last one is the most important.
Li Hao never thought that in this way, he could monopolize the coal mines in the entire Southeast Asia!
What is this concept.
In the previous life, those coal bosses were just one or two coal mines, and they were already very fat and made a lot of money.
Now Li Hao owns coal mines not only in the Lingnan area, but in the entire Southeast Asia.
In the previous life, just relying on this, he was directly the top energy tycoon in the country, and even in the world, he was inferior to those oil tycoons.
Not to mention, in this era, oil has not yet been developed for corresponding uses.
Coal is the protagonist of this era.
This can no longer be measured in money.
Rather, it is highly political.
Whoever controls the energy controls the future!
Both Zhang Han and Meng Huo knew that because of this coal, they would have more say in the handling of Southeast Asian affairs in the future!
In particular, Zhang Han and Meng Huo's desire to expand their territory has not changed.
As long as the influence is gradually expanded to the entire Southeast Asia, the unification of these Southeast Asian countries in the future will reduce a lot of resistance.
This is an expedition to the ocean, to conquer a land that has never been set foot in the past dynasties!
It is enough to be compared with Fenglang Juxu!
Both Zhang Han and Meng Huo were extremely hot in their hearts.
I can't wait to go back to organize coal mining and expand production. One day, I will be able to control the energy of the entire Southeast Asia.
And the capable subordinates of the two, Feng An and Tan Dian, also opened their mouths!
How could Feng An and Tan Dian fail to see the value of this coal.
Now that we have such energy, doesn't that mean that Southeast Asia will be the master of our own in the future?
They, Feng An and Tan Dian, as the middle management in the Lingnan region, may achieve even greater achievements in the future.
At the moment, he is full of enthusiasm.
Hurry up to assist my two immediate bosses to promote the great cause of coal mining!
Representatives from all over the country also hurried back.
They want to pass this good news to their tribal chiefs.
This news, I'm afraid it will make the whole tribe excited for a long time!
Naturally, businessmen from all over the world hurried back.
A big storm that will overturn the entire Southeast Asian pattern has just begun!
……
Merchants from various countries followed their trade routes and returned to their countries.
They all bought some coal, and when they returned to their country, they hurriedly contacted their lord.
Many of these merchants are engaged in national trade, so it is very easy to contact the owner of the country.
Java State.
Royal Palace.
Although the royal palace of Java is not majestic, it can be considered magnificent.
After all, this is the palace of the Lord of a country.
The king of Java is in the palace, and the rules here are not as strict as those in the Central Plains, so the king just sits cross-legged at the front, and the others sit cross-legged on the sides.
The businessman stood in the middle of the hall, bowing and reporting to the king.
"His Royal Highness, the villain went to Datang and got very important news!"
The king was very interested.
"What news, come and listen."
The businessman pointed to the coal he had brought in, and said:
"His Royal Highness, I have brought a brand new kind of fuel. This kind of fuel is very cheap. It only costs 150 Wen per kilo, but it is more burnable than firewood, and the consumption is also small. It is really something that our country must import. nice one!"
The king and all the ministers all looked at the businessman.
The fuel issue is the key to a country, who can ignore this issue?
Immediately the king said:
"Quick, show me the king."
The businessman found a copper basin, put coal into the copper basin, and lit it.
Soon, a raging fire ignited in the copper basin!
The flames are extremely strong, and you can tell that the heat is extremely high at a glance!
The king and all the ministers stared at the brazier intently.
Although the coal has just started burning, it can be judged just by looking at the fire that the heat of this coal is extraordinary!
not to mention!
Until half an hour later, the coal was still burning!
The eyes of the king and the ministers became more and more incredible!
This is obviously a kind of black stone, why does it take so long to heat up, and the heat is so high!
Does this kind of thing really only cost 150 Wen per thousand catties?
The king took a deep breath.
If this is the case, wouldn't the cost of using fire in the future be greatly reduced.
This is of great benefit to the country!
The king of Java immediately asked:
"Is this coal really only cost 150 Wen a kilo?"
The businessman nodded affirmatively.
"That's right, this coal is sold very cheaply, and the output is also very large, we can definitely import it in large quantities!"
Hearing the businessman's affirmative speech, the ministers could no longer hold back their excitement!
"My God! This is really a magical country! There are such wonderful things!"
"I don't know if we have such a thing in Java?"
"I have seen this kind of black stones in our country of Java before, and there are many black stones in our country."
"It's a pity that we don't know how to excavate these black stones. Our country only has some black stones scattered on the ground, which is not enough!"
All the ministers said to each other, they were very emotional that they obviously have such black stones, but they have not been able to use them. The biggest reason is that they still don't know how to dig them out.
Seeing this, the businessman couldn't help laughing and said:
"General Zhang and the others in Lingnan mean that they want to cooperate with us. If we want to buy their coal, we have to let us dig our coal mine."
"Of course, the coal dug out of these coal mines will also be distributed to us."
When the king heard this condition, how could he not know that this was to control the coal mines on his own land.
However, if there is no development of Zhang Han, what if there are coal mines in Java?
It's not wasted.
Rather than leaving it vacant like this, it is better to be a favor and let Zhang Han and the others come and dig.
At that time, I will also be able to obtain a stable share of coal.
So the king of Java thought for a short time before agreeing to the condition.
"Well, the king appointed you as the envoy of Java to discuss business with General Zhang, and the king agreed to his terms!"
The businessman immediately showed joy on his face.
The king agreed to this request, and his merchant became an imperial merchant. This coal is a necessity, and the profit is not small. Although his merchant can only get a small share of the pie, it is enough to make his mouth full.
