Under the influence of Li Boyang, the Mountain People and the Spirit Monsters gradually transcended their opposition and entered a state of unique symbiosis and mutual prosperity.
The Mountain People needed the permission and help of the Spirit Monsters to build the Xirang Road into every corner of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.
The Spirit Monsters, in turn, expanded their population with the help of the Mountain People while learning the advanced wisdom and skills from the Celestial Beings.
No intelligent being would refuse the enjoynt of a better life and the possession of greater power.
This is an instinct etched deep within the genes of all creatures and is also what those special individuals and Innate Divine beings yearn for the most.
As for the Gods who stand above the Mountain People and Spirit Monsters, it’s simpler still.
After several purges and suppressions by Li Boyang, the Hundred Lands Gods are now exceedingly well-behaved.
Let alone such a new order being beneficial to their existence.
Even if it were detrintal to them, the Hundred Lands Gods would not dare voice any opposition.
With this foundation and consensus, the rapid pace of civilization progress among the Hundred Lands Mountain People over the years has beco a reality.
The advancent of civilization depends on community, wisdom, and communication...
Unlike cargo transport-dominated river shipping.
The construction of Xirang Road is more conducive to movent between villages and individuals.
Previously, the only mode of communication for the Mountain People of the Hundred Lands Mountain Range was the market.
From ti to ti, going to the largest nearby town’s market was the only way for the Mountain People to learn about the outside world.
Even the selection of those who went to the market was ticulously chosen in each village.
However, from stone roads, concrete roads, to today’s Xirang Road.
The ans of travel for the Mountain People have beco increasingly convenient, naturally increasing efficiency.
The sparks of wisdom generated in just a few years have already surpassed millenniums of accumulation.
Especially when Li Boyang vigorously promoted the Bronze Beasts, which originally were tools for farming gradually beca ans of transportation.
During the off-farming season, even villages without Copper Horses.
Just by attaching a cart to the Bronze-Tusked Porpoise, they also achieved convenient travel.
As for speed, slow is slow.
Anyway, during the off-farming season, the Mountain People have plenty of ti.
Developnts have reached a point where so Mountain People have even ford "transport teams," specifically responsible for public transport between two or several villages.
For just a few copper coins, one can take a bronze cart to visit other villages.
So of the smarter new generation Mountain People even developed rudintary engines similar to "steam engines."
Unfortunately, compared to the Bronze Beasts that start just by eating grass.
The steam engine, before evolving into an internal combustion engine, simply has no competitiveness at all.
So, except for a few villages, almost none are willing to adopt those immature steam engines.
Here, it must be ntioned.
Whether influenced by Li Boyang or a natural outco of civilization reaching a certain stage.
When a large number of Mountain People’s villages started communicating, the primitive barter or gold-silver trade system began to fall behind.
In the realm of standardizing asurent, scripts, and tracks.
With Li Boyang’s enlightening education, several flood relief efforts, and the experience in constructing mountain roads, no major issues appeared.
Yet, how to establish a unified currency system beca an increasingly urgent problem for the Mountain People.
To be honest, not only did the Mountain People lack experience in this regard, but even Li Boyang was unsure where to start.
After all, on the Earth of the past, currency was a manifestation of the credit of a powerful regi.
Yet in the current Hundred Lands Mountain Range, not to ntion any regi, there isn’t even an institution that can truly be called a "governnt."
Who would implent currency?
How to ensure no excessive issuance of currency?
What could be used to back the currency?
These are all questions, moreover, they are unsolvable in the short term.
Frankly speaking, if the Mountain People can’t solve this problem, the civilization advancent of the entire Hundred Lands Mountain Range will co to a halt.
In this situation, Wu Xian, noticing the issue, took action.
He disguised himself as a Witch from outside the mountain range and proposed to the Great Witch of Gaotun Village, Xiao’e.
If the Hundred Lands Mountain Range does not want to be restricted by gold and silver supply, remaining in a primitive barter stage, then it must have its own exclusive currency.
Who would implent currency?
How to ensure no excessive issuance of currency?
What could be used to back the currency?
These three questions, seemingly complex, are actually rooted in a single issue – cohesion and prestige.
In the current Hundred Lands Mountain Range, who has higher cohesion and prestige than that Celestial Being?
After Wu Xian pointed this out, everyone, including Xiao’e, imdiately realized.
But then, everyone fell into the dilemma of how to convince that Celestial Being.
The equation "Mountain Prophet equals Descent Celestial Being" is not a completely open secret in the Hundred Lands Mountain Range.
In response, Wu Xian smiled and provided a new suggestion.
Who says implenting currency must have the consent of that Descent Celestial Being?
Or more precisely, is the consent of that Descent Celestial Being so important?
Aren’t those widespread Bronze Beasts the work of that Descent Celestial Being?
By simply shifting the mindset, just recast the damaged parts of the Bronze Beasts into a corresponding number of bronze coins.
Is there a need to worry that the Mountain People would reject this new currency?
Considering the damage rate of the Bronze Beasts and the usage frequency by the Mountain People.
The casting of bronze coins using damaged parts of the Bronze Beasts even seamlessly resolves the issue of currency over-issuance.
At least until soone cracks the bronze composition and begins unauthorized production.
This new bronze currency system is intrinsically tied to the usage frequency of the Bronze Beasts and Li Boyang’s prestige.
Once a complete solution was in place,
the Mountain People, with an execution capability that shocked Wu Xian, implented this matter.
In less than a week, near the factory of Yunng Marsh, an additional exclusive bronze coin minting factory erged.
Even more astonishingly, the promotion of bronze coins was completed within a few months.
Whether Mountain People, Spirit Monsters, or Ghost Gods, none rejected the usage of these bronze currencies.
On the contrary, compared to gold and silver, these bronze coins gained even higher popularity.
After all, gold and silver were rely universal equivalents, whereas the bronze itself had extrely high utility value.
Whether it’s repairing Bronze Beasts or relting and forging them into weapons...
The practical value and universality of these bronzes are the key reasons why Wu Xian’s series of proposals could truly be implented.
