"Father, there is no need to worry about money. With the profitability of the Deutsche Welfare Lottery Company, it is no problem at all to support the construction of a battleship. The main problem now is probably that there will be no shipyard to undertake the construction of my design. The battleship. The guys from the Naval Technical Committee will definitely obstruct it." Qin Tian said with a bitter face.

  The Deutsche Welfare Lottery Company can bring Qin Tian at least 200 million marks or more profit every year. The cost of building a battleship is only 40 to 50 million marks. To the rich and powerful Qin Tian, ​​it was nothing at all. However, it was not so easy to find a shipyard willing to help him build battleships and turn the drawings into reality.

   "This is indeed a problem. Even I don't have much to do about it." William II frowned.

German shipyards capable of building battleships, primarily the Naval Shipyard in Kiel, the Germania Shipyard, the Royal Shipyard in Wilhelmshaven, the Weser Shipyard in Bremen, the Vulcan Shipyard in Hamburg, and the Blom-Verth Shipyard , Danzig's Shuoxiao Shipyard. These shipyards, with the exception of the Naval Dockyard and the Royal Dockyard, are all privately owned. Even William II couldn't force them to build battleships for Qin Tian.

"Father, if I build a shipyard by myself, can I get your support? I mean the technicians and managers. After all, I don't have any foundation in this field." Qin Tian thought for a while, and then Said.

  Since those shipyards won't help him build battleships, he might as well do it himself. It is better to ask for help than to ask for oneself, anyway, he will not lack in funds. The Deutsche Welfare Lottery has become a cash cow, bringing him huge profits every month.

"Build a shipyard by yourself? It's not impossible. However, I have a better way. Instead of building a shipyard by myself, everything starts from scratch. It's better to buy a shipyard. In this case, at least I have a little foundation." William Second said.

   "Acquiring a shipyard? This is a good idea. But which shipyard is suitable?" Qin Tianyi thought, it is indeed better than building a new shipyard from scratch.

   "Well, the Royal Shipyard of the royal family can be transferred to you!" William II said.

   "Is it the Royal Shipyard in Wilhelmshaven? That's not bad. However, I'm afraid I don't have that much money right now, so I have to owe it first. I can borrow from you at the bank's interest." Qin Tian was overjoyed.

  The Royal Shipyard in Wilhelmshaven is one of the main shipyards in Germany, capable of building various types of ships, including battleships. Of course, if such a large shipyard is to be acquired, it will require a huge amount of funds. At least two or three billion marks. Although Qin Tian's Deutsche Welfare Lottery Company made money, it belonged to future income. It is impossible for Qin Tian to come up with so much money all at once, unless he waits for a year or two.

  A trace of embarrassment flashed across William II's face.

"Oscar, you seem to have misunderstood. I am not talking about the Royal Shipyard, but the Royal Shipyard. These are two different shipyards. The former is located in Wilhelmshaven, and the latter is located in Danzig!" William II explained .

   "Huh? Is it the Royal Shipyard in Danzig?" Qin Tian was also dumbfounded.

   Although the Royal Shipyard has been established for hundreds of years, it is still only a medium-sized shipyard. It only has experience in building small and medium-sized warships and ships, and has no ability to build battleships at all. Among other things, the entire shipyard doesn't even have a berth for building large battleships. If Qin Tian remembers correctly, the entire Royal Shipyard is in the red every year.

   "Father, the Royal Shipyard doesn't have the ability to build battleships at all!" Qin Tian was speechless.

"This is easy to handle. After you buy it, expand it and recruit more technicians and skilled workers. I will find a way to transfer a group of engineers from the Royal Shipyard and Naval Shipyard. This will improve the shipbuilding capacity of the Royal Shipyard. Come up, there is no problem." What William II said seemed to be very simple.

  Qin Tian hesitated, no matter how you look at it, it looks like William II is eager to sell the loss-making Royal Shipyard! But if William II wants to cheat people, he can find someone else? He is the son of William II! How could there be such a thing as a father cheating on his son.

"Oscar, now Germany's economy is developing at a high speed, and the profits of all shipyards are pretty good. If you want to acquire other shipyards, it will not be so easy. At the same time, you will need to spend more money. Besides, they will not Just like me, I will give you a loan directly. You have to think carefully, there will be no such shop after passing this village." William II urged.

  The Royal Shipyard has already belonged to the non-performing assets of the royal family. Although the annual loss is not much, it still gives William II some headaches. It would be great if this shipyard could be sold.

   What's more, after Qin Tian took over the shipyard, the battleships built also belonged to the German Navy. This can be said to kill two birds with one stone!

  Qin Tian was very speechless. Wasn't he putting in so much effort just to fulfill his promise? This is also of great benefit to the German Navy and even Germany as a whole.

  After thinking for a long time, Qin Tian still planned to take over the Royal Shipyard. Now that William II had already made this request, as his son, he had no choice.

  However, for his own benefit, Qin Tian will naturally try his best to bargain with William II.

   "Father, how much do you plan to sell the Royal Shipyard?" Qin Tian asked.

   "Fifty million marks, not a penny less."

   "Uh, father, I don't have that much money at all. Now I only have 10 million marks in my hand." Qin Tian spread his hands, looking very helpless.

   "It doesn't matter, you can pay in installments, and you can pay 10 million marks in each installment. With the earning power of the Deutsche Welfare Lottery Company, it will be paid off soon." William II said with a smile. He wasn't worried about Qin Tian's ability to pay at all. You know, the ability of the Deutsche Welfare Lottery Company to attract money makes even him, the emperor, envious of it. If this company is not owned by Qin Tian, ​​and Qin Tian has the knowledge to hand over part of the profits to the royal family, he will not be able to resist using various means to swallow this company.
