Chapter 10 Crisis

"Mr. Hans, this is your bonus. It's five million marks in total. However, you have to pay the tax yourself." Carl von Jonareit, the general manager of the Deutsche Welfare Lottery Company, with a smile on his face, will A check was handed to Hans who won the first prize.

After confirming the winner of the first prize, Carl rushed to Dusseldorf overnight, bringing a check for five million. At the same time, the news was notified to major newspapers. Now, in front of reporters from major newspapers, he gave the bonus to Hans in public.

"I..., thank you so much." Hans was a little at a loss. Right now, he seems to be in a dream. It never occurred to him that God would favor him and let him win the first prize. Even after paying taxes, there would still be four million marks left! For him, this is already a huge sum of money. With this money, he no longer needs to dig coal, and his wife and children no longer need to live in a small house.

"Mr. Hans, how do you feel now?" A reporter asked with envious eyes. He envied this guy's good luck, why didn't he win the lottery himself? If you have won the first prize, you don't have to work hard at all.

"I am very excited and happy. Thank God and the Deutsche Welfare Lottery. I am a coal miner and my life is very difficult. However, my life will be completely different from now on." Hans is full of hope for his future life. expected.

"My friends from the press, the purpose of our Deutsche Welfare Lottery is to give people the chance to change their destiny. Although two marks are not very cheap, most people can afford it. Use two marks in exchange for A chance to change your destiny is undoubtedly very cost-effective. Once you win the first prize, your life will be fundamentally changed from now on. In addition, our company is also a company that gives back to the society. From each lottery Among the proceeds, we will set aside a fixed portion for investment in social welfare undertakings to make the whole society better.” Karl seized this opportunity to publicize their purpose to everyone. Although, Karl is not very old. However, he behaved very maturely, without stage fright at all.

"Papa papa!" All the reporters and onlookers applauded enthusiastically.

The news that a coal miner successfully won the first prize and received a bonus of five million marks was immediately reported by major newspapers. Of course, Qin Tian and the others also paid a lot of public relations fees for this. This makes the sales of double-color balls become hot again. More and more people, eager to change their own destiny, have invested in lottery buying.

Although, for ordinary people, two marks is not a small amount of money. But at the current salary level, there is no problem in saving a little. And this, also makes the sales of double-color balls rise again.

By the time of the fourth issue, sales had risen to 40 million marks. After deducting costs and bonuses, Qin Tian's income reached around 4 million marks. And among these profits, Qin Tian had a full two million marks. With these steady streams of income, it will undoubtedly be much easier for Qin Tian to realize his plan.

The hot sale of double-color balls naturally attracted the attention of many people. There are also many people who want to take this golden chicken that lays golden eggs into their pockets. However, they found that there was no way to start.

Although Qin Tian was not favored by William II, he was the first prince of Germany after all. To start with a prince's property is undoubtedly to provoke the royal family. If you don't have enough strength, you can't bear the anger of the royal family at all.

In addition, the Deutsche Welfare Lottery Company donates millions of marks to the civil affairs department in Germany every week for social welfare undertakings, which makes the Deutsche Welfare Lottery Company have an excellent reputation in the society. If you rashly attack the German Welfare Lottery Company, it will inevitably cause criticism in the society.

However, even so, Qin Tian could feel that as the Deutsche Welfare Lottery Company's ability to absorb money became stronger and stronger, those greedy guys were about to lose control.

In a capitalist society like Germany, even the royal family would be terrified in front of these big capitalists.

"Carl, up to now, our lottery has been issued six times, and the total profit obtained has reached 10 million marks. After deducting the 2 million marks that have been donated to the civil affairs department, there are still 8 million marks left. This one million mark belongs to you." Qin Tian handed a check for one million mark to Karl.

"Thank you, Your Highness. I never expected that we would recover the cost in just a dozen days. The next thing is pure profit." Carl smiled. Although he can only get 10% of the profits, he is already very satisfied. According to the current profit rate, he can get more than two million marks a month.

"Well, but we have made so much money, so naturally other people are jealous. Now, there are probably not a few capitalists who want to annex us." Qin Tian has a strong sense of crisis.

"Your Highness, can't your identity make them afraid?" Carl's face suddenly became serious.

"In a short period of time, they should be able to hold them back. However, as we earn more and more money, they will soon be able to hold back. At that time, my status as an ordinary prince will not be frightening at all. Stop them." Qin Tian shook his head with a wry smile.

"Then what should we do?" Karl also knows the blood of capital accumulation. For profit, those capitalists often do everything they can. Qin Tian's status as a prince really can't make those people scruples. If Qin Tian's status can go one step further and become the crown prince, maybe he can still make those people jealous.

"Karl, go to the palace, find your father, and ask him to give this check to my father. Our previous decision was to give 20% of the profits to the royal family. I hope my father can see it. For the sake of the money and our father-son bond, give us shelter."

Karl nodded: "Okay, Your Royal Highness, I will go to Potsdam right away."

Karl knew that if the royal family could warn those greedy guys, they should give up their coveting of the German Welfare Lottery Company. After all, after the reunification of Germany, the royal family's prestige in Germany can be said to be in full swing. Even those big capitalists dare not confront the royal family openly.
