action
After a traffic accident with his truck, egg wholesaler Zackel is de facto bankrupt. But he believes he will land the big coup when he allegedly locates uranium on the property of the blonde hotelier's widow Mia Schöner using a device that he mistakenly believes to be a Geiger counter . Together with his old friend, the confectioner Kleiner, and the businessman Itzenblitz, who was Lieutenant Kleiner as a boy during World War II , he then founds an economic interest group. The three men hope that Zackel's “discovery” will bring them close to the great wealth. The most selfish goal of the three hypocrites is to ensnare the landowner Frau Schöner and her daughters, the blond Anita and the brunette Bettina, and, if possible, to marry immediately. But the local geologist Dr. Ebert seems to be interested in Mia Schöner.
Indeed, Anita soon takes a liking to the smart Itzenblitz, but lets it fidget a little. Bettina, on the other hand, has long been in love with the bar pianist Toni, who shares her feelings. Soon the three men who want to marry get into an argument because each believes that the other wants to relax the woman spied on as a future wife. The confusion becomes even bigger than Toni now assumes that the geologist Dr. Ebert, as his alleged future father-in-law, seems to have objections to him as Bettina's husband. A little later, Toni learns that Kleiner is planned to be Mia Schoner's husband. And so he immediately messes with him.
Finally, much to the astonishment of the geologists Ebert and Rothnagel, the drilling begins in Schöner's garden, but there is no uranium - no wonder, since Zackel had mistaken his egg tester, which was sent in for repair, for the Geiger counter, which looked similar to one another. Gradually, Mrs. Schöner suspects that she and her daughters have fallen into the hands of three crooks and crooks. Zackel's search for uranium is over, he is completely depressed and is also being taken into custody by the police. But he is lucky in misfortune: The drilling that has not yet been set brings a healing spring to light with a high iodine and sulfur content.
Two of the three hypocrites found their happiness in the end: Zackel his source and Itzenblitz his Anita. Only one goes away empty-handed: the confectionery dealer Kleiner, because he had previously left the community of interests after the confusion with the egg testing device was discovered.
