Jagged Germany

   "It seems that Prince regards me as an enemy of his succession to the throne." Qin Tian felt the deep hostility of Crown Prince William towards him.

  However, Qin Tian didn't care. Everything he did was to enhance Germany's war strength so that Germany could win in future wars. It would be great if he could become the Crown Prince of Germany. Even if he can't be crown prince, he doesn't care. Anyway, he remembered that William II would live a long time. Even if you are the crown prince, you have to be a few decades. Besides, William II was not a fatuous monarch, so naturally he would not let Crown Prince William mess around.

  Of course, Crown Prince William's repeated attacks on him also made Qin Tian very annoyed. The so-called clay figurines are still angry, let alone Qin Tian. Blindly forbearance will only make Crown Prince William push himself further.

"His Royal Highness, the proceeds of each issue of the German Welfare Lottery Company are distributed to the royal family and used for social welfare undertakings. In addition, I donated a battleship to the Navy in my own name. I think , These are enough to show my return to the empire. Your groundless accusation is a bit too unfair to me." Qin Tian showed neither humble nor overbearing.

   "You..." Crown Prince William was furious, but he didn't know how to refute. Qin Tian did make a lot of money, but he did not forget to give back to the society. In addition, the royal family also got a lot of benefits because of this. Therefore, it is obviously inappropriate for Crown Prince William to accuse Qin Tian of this aspect.

"Okay, Prince, Oscar. Stop arguing. Prince, Oscar has paid back more to the empire than you can imagine. So, don't hold on to it. In the future, don't take it again." Let's talk about it." William II said with a cold face.

   "Yes, father!" Both Qin Tian and Crown Prince William had to stop arguing.

  However, seeing the look in Crown Prince William's eyes, he was obviously very unwilling.

   "Could it be possible, did that guy Oscar provide more support to the Navy? Damn, his financial resources are too amazing. In this regard, there is no comparison between me and him!" Crown Prince William was very angry.

"Father, I have just established an energy company. In the next five years, my energy company will find a way to store two million tons of oil in Germany. However, once the war breaks out, whether two million tons of oil will be enough depends on the situation." It's hard to say." Qin Tian said.

  A capital ship often needs to load thousands of tons of fuel when it goes to sea. With the future scale of the German Navy, if all the warships are filled with fuel, it will probably require tens of thousands of tons. In this case, two million tons of oil will not last long at all.

  King William II nodded. Qin Tian was willing to form an energy company by himself to contribute to the country's oil security plan, which made him very satisfied.

   "Your Majesty, although the navy's current military expenditure is very tight, but in order not to be restricted in the future, the navy can find a way to reserve one million tons of oil for wartime needs." Marshal Earl Tirpitz also said.

   "Very well. In this case, the government is trying to establish a reserve of two million tons of oil. Once a war breaks out, five million tons of oil should be enough to support us until we win the war!" William II said.

   "Yes, Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Bernhard von Bülow nodded. Now that William II has made a decision, he has no choice but to say no more. 120 million marks, although it is a large expense, if it is divided into several years, it will not cause too much pressure.

"Damn it, Oscar's proposal has been approved again. If this continues, won't his influence in state affairs become bigger and bigger? No, it absolutely cannot go on like this." Crown Prince William secretly said swear. He clenched his hands into fists so tightly that his nails were almost digging into the flesh. It can be seen how angry he is in his heart.

   However, Crown Prince William has no way to deal with Qin Tian. Compared to Qin Tian, ​​Crown Prince William was too weak in every aspect. If it wasn't for the extra layer of aura of crown prince status, he would be nothing at all.

   And Qin Tian has no time to take care of this at all. He is calculating whether the reserve of 5 million tons of oil is enough.

"Five million tons of oil seems like a lot. If the war can end within two years, it should be almost the same. If it takes longer, it will be very difficult to say. The key lies in whether the navy can defeat Britain in a short time People. If you can win, then everything will be easy to talk about. If it takes longer, it will be troublesome." Qin Tian thought secretly.

   What's more, Qin Tian plans to promote the development of motor vehicles in Germany next. In this case, the fuel consumption may be further increased. At that time, once the motor vehicle market is developed, the consumption of oil will be really explosive. Of course, once a war breaks out, fuel purchases can be controlled and restricted. It's just that doing so will cause the people to delay the war. Unless it is absolutely necessary, it is best not to use this method.

"After the Italians take over Libya, they will find a way to extract what is there and ship it to the country on a large scale. In this way, the oil reserves may be further increased, thereby alleviating the domestic oil shortage pressure." Qin The world has made up its mind.

  Of course, Qin Tian also knows that once the Libyan oil is extracted in advance, it will inevitably make other countries speed up the exploration and exploitation of oil in North Africa. Moreover, after the outbreak of the war, Libya's oil fields will also become the primary target of attacks by the British and French. But Qin Tian didn't care at all. As long as Germany can win the war, no matter how much it loses, it can be recovered after the war is over.

   Therefore, winning the war is the most fundamental and most important thing. This is the basis of everything. Qin Tian did so many things mainly for this reason.

  In May 1906, Qin Tian instructed Carl von Jonareit to establish a company named Deutsche Motor Vehicle Manufacturing Company in Berlin. However, the business is nothing more than a shell. Qin Tian didn't want to build a motor vehicle factory from scratch, that would be too troublesome. He intends to use the method of acquisition to enable Deutsche Motor Vehicle Manufacturing Company to quickly open up the field of motor vehicle manufacturing in Germany and even the entire Europe.

   After all, it is only after the establishment of a motor vehicle manufacturing company that it is possible to manufacture all kinds of military vehicles, even tanks and armored vehicles.
