German Welfare Lottery Company founded by Oscar, after promoting its business to the entire Europe and United States, it can be called the most profitable company in the entire Europe. The profit earned every month is an astronomical figure. Even a considerable part of it has to be used for welfare projects and distributed to local snakes. But the profits obtained by Oscar are still very considerable.

Countries around the world have long been jealous of the German Welfare Lottery Company. However, due to Qin Tian's identity and the reputation of the German Welfare Lottery Company throughout Europe, he did not dare to act rashly.

But if the Germany people use the profits earned by German Welfare Lottery Company to develop armaments as an excuse, it will undoubtedly be possible to block German Welfare Lottery Company's business in various countries. Then use domestic companies to replace it, or the government directly participates in the operation. This way you can earn a considerable amount of income. Whether this income is used for arms construction or other aspects, it is a good supplement to the finance.

"Prime Minister, Mr. Churchill's suggestion is really great! German Welfare Lottery Company plunders tens of millions of wealth from Britain every year Pounds Sterling. If we can obtain this part of the wealth, our financial pressure will be reduced a lot." Chancellor of the Exchequer Lloyd? George was the first to jump out in support.

First Sea Lord McKenna also followed closely, because he knew that if the government obtained this wealth, it would most likely be used to build warships for the navy. Although, Britain is wealthy and has no shortage of military expenditures for the navy. But no one denies having too much money!

"Prime Minister, we must not just watch the Germany people use our money to build warships and then attack us! This is a crime against all Britain people. We must block all German Welfare Lottery Company's business in Britain!" McKenna also shouted.

"However, if we do this, I'm afraid it will further worsen the relationship between us and Germany!" Prime Minister Asquith was a little worried.

"Prime Minister, the conflict between us and the Germany people has become very acute. To put it bluntly, we and the Germany people are even on the verge of war. Under such circumstances, we don't need to consider at all. Germany people's attitude. As long as it is beneficial to the British Empire and can help British Empire's interests, we should do it even if it offends Germany people!" Foreign Minister Edward Sir Gray said.

Other ministers also expressed their support for blocking German Welfare Lottery Company's business in Britain.

"Prime Minister, we not only need to block German Welfare Lottery Company's business in Britain, France and Russia must also be notified. If possible, contact US government and ask US government to also block German Welfare Lottery Company's business in United States's business. In this case, German Welfare Lottery Company's profits will be greatly affected. The support they can provide to German Navy will be much smaller. Once Germany people do not have enough financial resources, it is simply delusional to surpass us! "Churchill continued.

"This suggestion from Mr. Churchill is really great! Without sufficient financial support, the development of German navy will inevitably be greatly affected. It is even more wishful thinking to compete with Royal Navy." McKenna said with a smile on his face.

"Well, let's do this! Churchill, German Welfare Lottery Company's business in Britain will be handled by you. We not only have to seal up German Welfare Lottery Company's business in Britain, but more importantly, we have to get this part of the profit. Mr. Foreign Minister, For France and Russia, Ministry of Foreign Affairs will be responsible for informing them. United States will also lobby them as much as possible. I think the huge profits of German Welfare Lottery Company must also make those greedy Americans very jealous." Prime Minister Asquith said.

"Yes, Prime Minister." Both Churchill and Edward? Sir Gray replied.

"Prime Minister, cutting off German Navy's development funds is just a way. The most important thing is still Royal Navy's own development. Only when we become stronger can we not be afraid of the challenges of Germany people!" Churchill said.

Prime Minister Asquith nodded. "All the profits we gain from the welfare lottery will be invested in the construction of the navy. Royal Navy, in the next few years, must build the world's number one navy. No other country can even think of challenging British Empire in this regard!"

In June 1910, the governments of Britain, France and Russia announced almost at the same time that German Welfare Lottery Company's business in their territories was illegal and would be sealed up!

For a time, all services of German Welfare Lottery Company and the three powers of Britain, France, and Russia were stopped. At the same time, all funds in banks in the three countries that have not yet been transferred have been frozen. What's even more terrible is that the Britain and France market has always been one of the main markets for German Welfare Lottery Company. Now that these two markets are lost, German Welfare Lottery Company will inevitably lose nearly one-third of its profits. This is definitely a heavy blow to German Welfare Lottery Company.

"Your Highness, what should we do now? The person in charge of our branch in the three powers of Britain, France, and Russia has been arrested. The company has been sealed and the bank account has been frozen." German Industrial Group President Karl? Feng? Jonath looked nervous.

Although German Industrial Group has developed into a large consortium, German Welfare Lottery Company is still the most profitable company in this consortium. The loss of markets in three countries is undoubtedly a heavy loss for German Welfare Lottery Company.

"We did not evade taxes in the three powers of Britain, France, and Russia's business activities, right?" Oscar asked.

"Your Highness, absolutely not. Our business is extremely enviable. In order to avoid being caught by others, we have always operated with integrity and there will never be any tax evasion." Karl? Feng? Jonath assured.

"Damn it, it looks like this. The the three powers of Britain, France, and Russia government is clearly here for me." Oscar couldn't help but curse. Although, he has long known that the three powers of Britain, France, and Russia's government will not give up once it discovers that German Welfare Lottery Company is quickly plundering their wealth. But I still didn't expect that their response would be so fast and decisive, so much of German Welfare Lottery Company's wealth would not be transferred in time, resulting in heavy losses.
