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 matter. 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 that's the truth.
There is no room for the Pope to defend himself.
The Pope sat on a 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' position 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 anomaly 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 period of peace 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 facing Prussia now.
Food problem.
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 business in Iceland.
After receiving the news, Frederick II immediately made a decision.
Send people to Iceland to discuss cooperation.
It would be best if they could 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 at all. Britain is now an ally with Prussia.
Such a thing is easy, but France has always been eyeing Britain's territorial waters.
