Elizabeth offers a high reward for solving the Rubik's Cube designed by Liu Zheng.
Soon it spread throughout Tsarist Russia.
There is an endless stream of people coming to challenge in order to obtain high rewards.
But no one can crack the Rubik's Cube.
Even the patterns are becoming more and more complex.
At the beginning, there were only four patterns of different colors on the six faces, but as the number of challengers increased, the color arrangement on the Rubik's Cube became more and more complex.
So much so that when later people saw such a responsible color change, they immediately backed down.
Time passed day by day, as the time for young Peter's engagement got closer and closer.
The entire Tsarist Russia, and even the princes and ministers, had no way to restore this Rubik's Cube.
Because of this incident, there was a stir throughout Tsarist Russia.
There were even keen businessmen who seized this business opportunity and created an identical Rubik's Cube, which brought huge economic mobilization to Tsarist Russia.
For a time, everyone was very curious about this Rubik's Cube with a very high difficulty index.
From the princes and nobles of Tsarist Russia to the urchins in the countryside.
There are people playing this thing.
For a time, the Rubik's Cube became extremely popular.
This kind of thing made of wood is not expensive and not complicated, but it adds a bit of capitalist transaction flavor to the serfdom society of Tsarist Russia.
Tsarist Russia also made a small fortune from this.
Although the Rubik's Cube has not been solved, Elizabeth I is still in a good mood.
Because the advent of the Rubik's Cube brought economic benefits to Tsarist Russia, and for Elizabeth I, the figures were considerable.
With this money, their strength will continue to improve during this period.
But what Elizabeth I didn't know was that the person who produced, manufactured, and monopolized the trading of Rubik's Cubes was Long Yanren.
Longyan merchant made a lot of money by relying on this wave of Rubik's Cube.
There is the high reward offered by Elizabeth I, and there is also the gimmick that people from all walks of life in Tsarist Russia have no idea of cracking the Rubik's Cube.
More than enough to keep this humble gadget very hot.
This is a very happy thing for them.
…
At this time, Europe, Saxony.
The peaceful development in Europe during this period made Liu Zheng bored, and he began to think about returning to Long Yan.
Counting the time, the time agreed between him and Xie Chan was coming soon.
Leaving aside the journey at sea, Liu Zheng was about to set off.
Thinking of Xie Chan, Liu Zheng's eyes were full of tenderness.
A waiter came in and said, "Master Liu Zheng, what you ordered is ready."
Liu Zheng nodded. What he asked people to prepare were some specialties from Europe, things that Long Yan didn't have. Naturally, he prepared these things as gifts for returning home.
Liu Zheng added: "Where is Li Hongtian, how are his negotiations with Austria going?"
"Reporting to your lord, Lord Li has gone to Austria. According to the intelligence sent back, your lord and General Victor had a very happy conversation."
Liu Zheng nodded, he felt relieved to leave such a matter to Li Hongtian.
He is the Minister of the Ministry of Finance, so talking about cooperation is the most suitable thing for him to do.
When things in Europe come to an end, he should leave and return to Longyan.
…
At this time, the other side of Europe.
Ever since the Holy Crusaders' economy was destroyed and they were completely driven out of Hanover.
The Pope in Rome was furious.
But this time, he had no choice but to ask for help from Italy, and the other party agreed to send troops.
But until now, he has not seen a single unit supporting the Holy Crusaders.
Italy's attitude has always been ambiguous.
Although Europe has now entered a brief period of peace, the economic battle has been defeated by some swindlers and Longyan people.
This time, these European countries are exchanging money for development.
The price of grain has not dropped much with the arrival of spring.
The entire European continent is still experiencing frequent chaos, and the Pope already feels powerless.
He could no longer think of any better way to target Long Yanjun.
This time, the Holy Crusaders were directly defeated by the Dragon Flame Army from all levels.
Compared with the defeat of the Holy Crusaders, the Pope was more concerned about another thing. The Holy Crusaders' troops suffered from internal chaos after lack of money.
Therefore, the entire army was disintegrated by Long Yanjun.
Money obscures faith. The Holy Crusaders, a force that relies on faith to survive, are best defeated by money. This sentence sounds so harsh.
But it is what it is.
There was no room for papal justification.
The Pope sat in his tall chair and sighed deeply.
…
Another side of Europe.
Iceland.
Jiang Xuelan established a trading center in Iceland, which helped her accumulate a lot of wealth and also helped Jones gain endless benefits.
But Jones did not keep the wealth for himself, but distributed it to the island.
This could strengthen Jones' standing on the island.
He is a divine messenger now, but what about in the future?
Now, as more and more outsiders land on the islands, the residents of these islands will always find clues and come into contact with the outside world.
As the contact becomes deeper and deeper, sooner or later they will discover the abnormality in all this.
At that time, Jones' identity as a pirate could no longer be concealed.
Sooner or later it will be exposed.
Once exposed, all this will be a devastating blow.
At Jiang Xuelan's suggestion, Jones distributed the money to the island residents.
In this way, Jones gained trust and consolidated his rule.
He also started a plantation economy here.
And on the other side of Europe.
Prussia.
Because of Long Yan's assistance and the rare peace period now, Frederick II did not let go of this period of rapid development.
He knew about Ling Chen's scam.
Frederick II also provided corresponding help, so Ling Chen paid Frederick II some gold coins in return.
With this money, Frederick II could solve a big problem now facing Prussia.
lack of food.
Prussia's enemies come from all directions. Although Long Yan has now controlled Saxony, Long Yan only has enough food for its own use, and there is not much food to sell to them.
Originally, Prussia did not have this opportunity, but Frederick II recently heard a piece of news.
On an island in the Atlantic Ocean, people held trade there.
It did not belong to any European international colony.
Because of this, countries like Prussia, which has been sanctioned by most European countries, can also do transactions in Iceland.
After receiving the news, Frederick II immediately made a decision.
Send people to Iceland to discuss cooperation.
It would be best to be able to continuously purchase food from there. This is what they need to solve recently.
But there is only one problem now. Prussia is located in the middle of Europe. If you want to go to the Atlantic Ocean, you need to pass through British territorial waters. There is no problem. Britain is now an ally with Prussia.
Such a thing is easy, but France has always been eyeing Britain's territorial waters.
