Villagers in China can buy gadgets with sheep.

People in China's Kashgar can pay for their consumer electronics, such as smartphones, with sheep. One entrepreneur recently announced the innovative program in order to teach locals that gadgets aren't as expensive as they thought.

The "price list" isn't ba-a-a-a-a-a-a-ad. A smartphone costs one sheep, and a laptop costs four.

The biggest hurdle so far is that local villages don't have access to the Internet.
