Why did Zhouyang change the welfare offerings for Zhou Family cultivators from Spirit Stones to Contribution Points?
Was it because the Zhou Family's finances were tight, and they couldn't afford Spirit Stones?
Definitely not!
Even when he took over the Zhou Family years ago, the Spirit Stones on the family's accounts were sufficient for disbursement.
Therefore, the reason he issued Clan Contribution Points was not to cheat others with empty promises, but to use Contribution Points to bind all the family cultivators, making them more reliant and loyal to the clan.
The more Contribution Points a Zhou Family cultivator holds, the less likely they are to betray the clan, because once they do, all the Contribution Points they've accumulated through hard work would become worthless.
