With the speech and support of the wizard Mori Jian, Yu Zao defied all opinions and broke the sacred book into pages for Yu Lian to study and compare.
The little green book icon in the [Gift] slot disappeared without a trace.
Lu Yao's experiment has produced results: pixel villains cannot directly grasp things they cannot understand through the temple. They can only understand [Gifts] based on their existing cognition.
Soon, a prompt appeared on the screen.
【Yu Lian invented paper.】
[The Garlic Tribe learned to make and use paper, and their faith was improved.]
[The Garlic Tribe has learned to make and use books, and everyone’s intelligence has been slightly improved.]
Inventing and using paper and books, the Garlic Tribe brought 400 points of faith to Lu Yao.
Shortly after the appearance of paper, the leader Yuzu passed away.
This young man who once said "gods love slippery fish", a hero who almost died in battle due to his blind confidence, and a villain who took on the responsibility of a leader when he grew old, ended his life.
It is written on the monument.
"Yuzhao: One of the first two heroes of the tribe, he once fought bravely against the demon believers and fought to protect the tribe and the cave monsters. He strongly advocated the construction of ships, spreading the footprints of the Garlic Tribe all over the water, integrating the East River tribe and the cave monsters
, helped Yulian make paper, we will miss him forever."
Yuzhao's soul was picked up by Scott and brought to Sanilo in the south, where he started a new journey of life.
The era of the first generation leader and hero of the Garlic Tribe has come to an end.
After Yu Gao died, the cave wizard Morimi took his place. Yu Lian was also recommended by Morimi and became the youngest leader in the history of the tribe.
The second generation of leaders of the Garlic Tribe takes shape.
The cave wizard Morimi is the decision-maker of major events for the tribe.
The astrologer Shahan spent most of his time in the temple, as a waiter of the gods, and was also responsible for the compilation of tribal texts and books.
Yulian is a new force among leaders, and he began to propose a series of reform plans to promote the tribe.
He said: "Our galleys have been to Sanilo, which is also the place of worship of Lord Yao."
"The Apostle said that Sanilo is a city of ghosts, and there are many ghosts that we can't see living there. Many of the dead people of the tribe will be taken there."
"I have been to Sanillo by boat. It is an amazing city with clean streets and houses, roads that are not afraid of rain and mud, straight and flat streets, and tall and solid walls."
"The Garlic Tribe also wants to build a city like this."
"Cities will make our lives more comfortable, less likely to get sick, and more able to unite our faith and confidence."
This suggestion was rejected by Morimi on the grounds that the tribe currently lacks manpower to support such a huge and time-consuming project.
It is commonly said that if you take too big a step, you will have to hold on to your eggs.
However, Morimi agreed with some of Yuren's views.
The wizard believes that road construction is the tribe's top priority. The road between the Yanchi settlement and the Garlic tribe's base camp must be opened so that goods from the two places can circulate quickly.
With roads, the two places can support each other if they encounter dangerous situations.
But building the road was more difficult than they expected.
Just digging a road out of the mountain took all the labor of the cave monsters.
The cave monsters dug into the mountains day and night. They were very experienced in digging holes, but even so, they encountered several landslides and heavy rains, and several cave monsters died.
Lu Yao also helped and used [Scorching Sun] to disperse the heavy rain, so that the road construction in the mountains could continue.
After the road between the two places was opened, the circulation speed of goods has greatly increased, and more and more camels are transporting goods back and forth.
The merchants immediately became active. Taking aim at the profit difference between the two places, they began to frequently resell feathers, salt and garlic from the two places, and gained a lot of profits.
Problems also came one after another.
Transporting goods requires camels or manpower to carry them. In the trade between the two places, the barter method is inefficient and has high losses, and merchants have always been troubled.
Not long after, Lu Yao saw a prompt pop up on the screen.
【Shang Li invented the currency "seashell".】
[The Garlic Tribe has learned to make and use currency, their faith has been improved, and everyone's intelligence has been slightly improved.]
——Great God, there is a believer who has performed feats far beyond those of his peers. Do you need to transform him into a hero?
【whether】
Lu Yao clicked on the temple.
Standing in the hall was Shang Li.
He is only 18 years old, even younger than Yulian today.
Lu Yao converted him into a hero.
In the detailed personal panel, Shang Li is a young man with a handsome face and tied hair.
He was wearing linen clothes and trousers and sheepskin boots. Shangli led a camel and walked on the path, carrying goods wrapped in cloth on the camel's back.
Under the portrait is his personal motto.
——How I wish that everything was a commodity with a clearly marked price. Once I paid for it, it belonged to me, and I never had to worry about losing it.
Wisdom Lv1: Wisdom is the key for apostles to listen to the will of gods. The higher the level of wisdom, the easier it is to improve and understand various abilities.
Trade Level 1: Good at trade, has better business capabilities, and has a certain probability of making commercial inventions.
…
The emergence of business profits is an unexpected blessing.
Lu Yao originally thought that progress at the institutional level of tribal civilization might require the development of iron tools or engineering.
Unexpectedly, the businessmen stood up.
They are eager to obtain more profits from transactions. The need for profit makes them the group most enthusiastic about change. Business profit is an epitome of the power of merchants to promote tribal civilization.
The seashell invented by Shang Li quickly became popular in the tribe with the permission of the wizard Morimi and others.
Currency makes transactions more efficient and clear, making bartering a thing of the past.
The tribal people even learned to set up stalls and sell food.
However, some disadvantages also arise.
"Mutton, 40 shellfish a piece."
"Mutton, 39 shellfish per piece."
Two mutton sellers started a price war.
"Why do you have to be lower than me?"
"Idiot, of course that's why I can buy it. You can also sell it at a low price."
"Mutton, 38 shellfish per piece!"
"Mutton, 35 shellfish a piece!"
The two villains couldn't argue and almost started fighting. In the end, the fishing company came forward to negotiate and settled the dispute.
In addition to this, currency trading also raises the classic problem of missing a pound.
"You sell less meat than others!"
"Nonsense, it's obviously the same."
"Just want less!"
"If you don't want to buy it, forget it."
"Give me back the seashells! I'll buy them elsewhere!"
"I've already bought it. If you give me the spoiled meat, how can I want it?"
"Damn it! You guy!"
"This is how trading works, please see clearly."
Lu Yao also shook his head.
He half-wanted to strike this tribal profiteer with a [Lightning] strike. It was disgusting that the fruits of the hard work of the working people were deceived into their pockets like this.
But even killing this profiteer is useless.
If one profiteer falls, there will still be thousands of profiteers.
Lu Yao was curious, wondering if the Garlic Tribe had any way to deal with it.
Soon, the tribe came up with countermeasures.
[Yu Lian invented the weight measurement unit: Jin/Liang.]
[The garlic tribe unified weights and measures.]
[The Garlic Tribe has learned to formulate and use units of measurement, and everyone’s intelligence has been slightly improved.]
Lu Yaoxin said that was right.
The merchants turned into catfish fighting for food, stirring up this quiet pool and bringing pressure and challenges to the tribal leaders.
The gears of the new era are slowly turning with the help of countless people.
