Germanic Empire: please call me William III

“Your Royal Highness, you really impressed me!” I didn’t expect His Royal Highness the Prince to have such a talent. It seems that many of us, including His Majesty the Emperor, have looked away before! Count Tirpitz sighed.

“Then, Your Excellency, have I passed your test?” Liu Chuan asked directly.

“The test? Yes, it was a test. His Royal Highness has passed and done a very good job! Count Tirpitz simply admitted.

“Your Excellency, Count, I am not going around in circles with you either. Believe me, your purpose is also clear to you. The father died, the eldest brother also became a vegetative person, when he will be able to wake up, it is not known. However, the Empire cannot be left alone for a day. As far as my second and third brothers are concerned, they are not the material for the emperor at all. The current empire, in particular, is in crisis. The slightest carelessness will fall into the abyss. Even if there is no way to win the great war in the future. Then, it is very likely that the empire will collapse again, and the unification that has been completed so hard will be divided again. After all, the states that make up the empire may not be sincerely with us.

Only I am the most suitable heir to the throne. I can swear to God that I will do everything I can to bring the empire to strength. Even, in the future war, lead the empire to victory and let the empire move towards a more brilliant future! ”

Liu Chuan directly pointed out everything and waited to see how Count Tirpitz chose.

Count Tirpitz was suddenly silent, although he was very optimistic about Liu Chuan, believing that Liu Chuan was the most suitable candidate for the throne.

However, challenging the Imperial Succession Act is a big deal!

Besides, even if the navy supports Liu Chuan, its strength is slightly insufficient.

In the Germanic Empire, the strength of the navy was far from comparable to that of the army.

In addition, if Liu Chuan wants to inherit the throne, the support of the military alone is far from enough, and he also needs to obtain the support of the cabinet and various states. Only in this way can Liu Chuan justifiably inherit the throne.

“Your Royal Highness, this is a big matter, and I need to think about it carefully. Moreover, the succession of His Royal Highness is after all that of Prince Etter Frederick and Prince Adalbert. Tirpitz said.

“Your Excellency, I am sure that none of this will be a problem if there is support from the military!” Liu Chuan said.

However, count Tirpitz still refused to let go.

Seeing such a situation, Liu Chuan knew that he had to find a way. Or rather, a killer.

“Your Excellency, I went to the Spice Islands to explore minerals and was successful, and I think you know it too!” Liu Chuan said.

Count Tirpitz nodded, “Your Highness the Prince’s luck is indeed very good, a copper mine with tens of millions of tons of reserves is indeed worth a lot.” Copper ore was an extremely scarce resource for the Empire. Relying on that copper mine alone, His Royal Highness was able to earn a very large fortune. ”

“Your Excellency, sir, it is not a copper mine, but a gold and copper mine. Moreover, the reserves of copper ore are not 10 million tons, but more than 30 million nearly 40 million tons. The reserves of gold alone are as high as more than 3,000 tons. In addition, there are more than ten thousand tons of silver. Liu Chuan said with a smile.

“What? Nearly forty million tons of copper, more than three thousand tons of gold and more than ten thousand tons of silver? Count Tirpitz was stunned.

In his mind, he was even already calculating how much gold, silver and copper would be worth once they were mined.

There is no doubt that by relying on this gold and copper mine alone, Liu Chuan is enough to become the richest man in the entire Germanic Empire.

This also made Count Tirpitz very envious of Liu Chuan’s luck.

“Your Excellency, this gold and copper mine is owned by the August Mining Company. At present, August Mining Company, I have eighty percent of the shares. The other twenty percent of the shares went to the royal family.

I know that the Navy has been seeking to build a large fleet, a fleet that can compete with the Imperial Royal Navy. Therefore, over the years, the father has been strongly supporting the navy. However, because of the economic and financial situation of the empire, the navy did not share much military expenditure, and in order to maintain rapid development, it even owed a huge debt.

I am personally willing to give twenty percent of the shares of Auguste Mining to the Navy free of charge. The annual proceeds from these shares will be used as special military expenses for the Navy to improve the welfare of admirals and to build battleships.

According to my plan, the gold and copper mines of august mining company are worth a total of two or three billion marks. Every year Auguste is able to make a billion marks or more from there.

I think this money is definitely a blessing for the Navy! ”

Liu Chuan chose the most violent and direct method, directly using money to smash the navy.
