Chapter 7: money making plan

  It was already night when Qin Tian and Karl returned to Potsdam. However, Qin Tian did not spend the night in the palace, but moved out of the palace immediately. He knew that the agreement he had reached with Dean Ludwig Birkenhagen would soon be known to Wilhelm II. It has even been known by William II. In order to avoid long nights and dreams, it is better to leave as soon as possible.

  Qin Tian left the palace with only simple luggage. Of course, he did not leave behind the most important passbook. Carl von Jonareit also chose to leave with Qin Tian. Although Qin Tian's plan seemed whimsical, Karl subconsciously believed that Qin Tian would succeed.

  Qin Tian and Karl went directly to Berlin. If you want to earn enough money, you have to go to a big city.

  The German royal family has its own fiefs and various industries. These fiefdoms and industries can obtain a large amount of income every year. Members of the royal family can obtain fixed income from it. As the prince of the German Empire, Qin Tian certainly ranks low in succession. However, he earns a lot every year. Over the years, a considerable deposit has been accumulated. The number on the passbook is astonishingly five million marks. This money will be Qin Tian's start-up capital.

  After arriving in Berlin, Qin Tian and Carl directly checked into a luxury hotel. Although, it costs a lot. Once Qin Tian's money-making plan is successful, it will be nothing at all.

   "Your Highness, what exactly are you going to do? Earn at least 40 million marks in four years, this is not a small sum!" Carl was a little worried. In the hotel room, Carl raised his doubts.

"Carl, have you really made up your mind to do it with me? We are very likely to fail. If we fail, I don't need to tell you the consequences. You should know the consequences." Qin Tian didn't answer immediately, but calmly Looking at Carl, waiting for his answer.

   "Of course, Your Highness. You are my best friend, and I believe you will succeed." Karl replied without thinking.

   Indeed, among the many princes in the palace, Qin Tian is considered the most unassuming person. This also made Karl, who was about the same age, very willing to get along with Qin Tian. It was also the reason why Qin Tian chose to serve Qin Tian even though he was not outstanding among the many princes.

"Okay, Karl. Since you believe in me so much, I will definitely not let you down. I believe that in a short time, we will shock the entire German business community and high society." Qin Tian was full of confidence .

   And Karl seemed to be infected by Qin Tian.

   "Carl, this is my plan, please take a look." Qin Tian took out a few pieces of paper from his suitcase and handed it to Carl.

  The main content of this plan is to set up a company called the German Welfare Lottery to make profits by selling welfare lottery tickets.

   In this period, the lottery is nothing new. In Germany and throughout Europe, there are also a lot of lottery tickets sold in various countries. However, after investigation, Qin Tian found that the lottery during this period did not have many bonuses, and the gameplay was simple and simple. Although there were many people who bought it, the market did not really take off.

  The lottery tickets that Qin Tian decided to sell were completely copied from the double-color ball game of later generations. Thirty-three red **** and sixteen blue balls, if you win six red **** and one blue ball, you will win the first prize, with a bonus of up to five million marks.

  The reason why Qin Tian chose the double-color ball lottery is because the double-color ball has a big prize and a lot of small prizes. As long as he chooses a blue ball, he can win. For lottery players, such lottery tickets are undoubtedly worth buying and pursuing.

   Judging from the popularity of the double-color ball in China in later generations, Qin Tian has no doubt that once this lottery comes out, it will definitely cause a frenzy in the whole of Germany and even the whole of Europe. And the wealth earned through this must be an astronomical figure. Of course, Qin Tian intends to sell it in Germany first, and then spread it to other countries after gaining a firm foothold, trying to earn enough money before the war breaks out.

  Although there were only a few sheets of paper, it took Karl half an hour to read them. As the son of the emperor's steward, Karl has also received a good education since he was a child, and he is also very smart. While looking at this plan, I was also speculating on the possibility of success.

"Your Highness, I have to admit that this lottery called Shuangseqiu is much more powerful than the lottery tickets currently on the market, and it can completely crush them. Once it goes on sale, it will definitely be very popular. "Carl also looked excited. He is only two years older than Qin Tian, ​​and he will not be good at controlling his emotions like those old foxes.

   "Carl, do you also think we can succeed?"

"Of course, Your Royal Highness, we will succeed. There are more than 60 million people in Germany, and there are millions of people who buy lottery tickets. After the advent of double-color balls, this market can even be made bigger. Although the taxation of the lottery industry is heavy , but after deducting taxes and costs, we will definitely be able to make a large profit." Carl is very sure of this.

  Qin Tian nodded in satisfaction. If the two-color ball can really sell well in Germany, let’s not say too much, as long as each issue can earn one million marks. Then, three issues a week, one hundred and fifty-six issues in a year, so that at least 200 million marks can be earned. To build a battleship, it only needs tens of millions of marks. Their annual profit is enough to build several battleships.

   "However, Your Highness. Once the sales are really hot, I'm afraid it will attract the attention of others." Carl reminded.

  Even though Qin Tiangui was the prince of the German Empire, he was nothing more than a prince who was not favored by William II. Once the sales of the German Welfare Lottery Company established by Qin Tian are booming and a lot of profits are made, it will definitely make other capitalists jealous. At that time, they will definitely use all kinds of methods to plunder Qin Tian's property.

  Qin Tian nodded, the plunder and expansion of capital is bloody. Once there are enough profits, those greedy guys will definitely go crazy. Therefore, Qin Tian must find a way to keep his wealth. He regards the sale of lottery tickets as an important pocketbook of his own. Many of his future businesses will need to rely on lottery sales to obtain a lot of money. Otherwise, everything will be empty talk.

   Shuangseqiu lottery will be successful, it is beyond doubt. Then, what is before Qin Tian now is how to keep this gold mine.
