Although the Taiyi Sect and the Mobei Qi Family had a faint tendency to unite when facing the Feihong Sect, they were still wary of each other.

And in order to avoid irritating the Feihong Sect, the two forces had little contact on the surface.

In fact, given the current situation in the Endless Sand Sea, the possibility of a civil war breaking out in a short time is very small. The alliance between the Taiyi Sect and the Mobei Qi Family is just a precaution.

Meng Zhang's main gaze began to look beyond the endless sea of ​​sand.

After the Huoyun Sect was defeated and the war ended, Xuanfeng Zhenjun, the man behind the Fireyun Sect, made no new moves for the time being. However, the business exchanges between Gale City and the Endless Sand Sea did not resume immediately.

Such an approach is definitely not the original intention of Da Feng City.

A large part of the reason why Dafeng City has become a major commercial city is because of its superior location and location on a thoroughfare.

It is connected to the endless sand sea to the north and the core area of ​​Jiuqu League to the south. To the west is the vast sea and to the east is the endless prairie.

The various resources and specialties produced in the Endless Sand Sea are basically imported into Gale City, and Gale City sells various cultivation materials to the Endless Sand Sea all year round.

Especially after Taiyi Sect occupied a large area of ​​Yaofeng Gobi, it began to continuously buy the products of Yaofeng Gobi into Dafeng City.

If these businesses are lost, the overall transaction scale of Dafeng City will drop by at least 30%.

Of course, Da Feng City is not willing to lose these businesses forever. True Lord Xuan Feng is not easy to mess with, but the interests cannot be given up easily.

When the Fire Cloud Sect invaded the Endless Sand Sea, Gale City severed all transactions with the Endless Sand Sea in accordance with the will of True Lord Xuanfeng.

Although the war is over now, the face of True Lord Yuanshen still needs to be taken care of.

Gale City has not publicly resumed trade with the Endless Sand Sea. However, on the border between the two places, a large number of smugglers suddenly appeared. They were running back and forth between the two places, trading supplies.

There is also a not too long border between Demon Wind Gobi and Gale City, and there are also many smuggling caravans.

Last time, Meng Zhang hired many casual cultivators from Gale City to join the battle in the Endless Sand Sea.

During the war, this group of casual cultivators suffered heavy casualties.

After the war, Meng Zhang did not go back on his word. He gave out every penny of the promised benefits. Even to the casual cultivators who died in the battle, Meng Zhang also gave them the promised rewards according to their wishes during their lifetime.

friends and relatives.

Although this puts Taiyimen under heavy financial pressure, there are also many benefits.

Some surviving casual cultivators have expressed their willingness to continue serving the Taiyi Sect.

Among the smuggling caravans sent by Taiyi Sect, there were casual cultivators who were familiar with the situation in Jiuqu League.

Taiyi Sect's reputation for keeping its promises has slowly spread to the Jiuqu League.

Reputation is something invisible, intangible, and seemingly useless, but at certain times, it can play an unexpected role.

A sect that honors its promises will have many invisible conveniences when interacting with other forces and conducting business transactions.

Although the officials of Dafeng City have not resumed trade with Taiyi Sect, Feihong Sect, etc., they have restored a lot of trade through these smuggling caravans.

The Gu Yue family also secretly sent an envoy to Xiongshi Ridge to visit Meng Zhang and express the family's apology.

The person who acted as the messenger was Meng Zhang's old acquaintance Gu Yue Youlan. She kept her attitude low and fully explained the family's original difficulties.

In order to express the Gu Yue family's apology, she gave a lot of compensation on behalf of the family.

Previously, Taiyi Sect had borrowed a large amount of spiritual stones from the Gu Yue family using Yaofeng Gobi's production.

The Gu Yue family is willing to waive part of the interest and extend the repayment period.

In terms of business between the two parties, the Gu Yue family is willing to make some concessions and provide more benefits.

When the Gu Yue family sent people to cut off contact with the Taiyi Sect, Meng Zhang expressed his understanding, but was a little unacceptable.

Before, because he was good friends with Gu Yue Huaidie, he thought that the Gu Yue family was a reliable friend of the Taiyi Sect.

Now it seems that all this is due to Meng Zhang having too high expectations. Faced with the pressure from True Lord Yuanshen, he has no truly reliable friends.

This can be regarded as a lesson to Meng Zhang, making him understand that in the world of cultivation, different forces must not rely on personal feelings to maintain their relationships.

In front of Meng Zhang, Gu Yue Youlan also specifically pointed out that the last decision made by the family was strongly opposed by her and Gu Yue Huaidie. However, they spoke softly and failed to change the views of other elders in the family.

Can't make the decision of the clan leader.

Both she and Gu Yue Huaidie felt very sorry about this matter. When she came this time, she also brought Gu Yue Huaidie to apologize.

After Meng Zhang became the Golden Core Master, he had the innate magical power of mind telepathy and could easily read the thoughts of ordinary monks in the foundation building stage.

But monks like Gu Yue Youlan who come from a big family have either practiced the secret technique of locking the heart, or they carry magic weapons that prevent mind reading. It is difficult for Meng Zhang to read her mind, and it is difficult to judge whether what she says is true.

Fake.

No matter what, no matter what Gu Yue Huaidie's attitude is. Anyway, from now on, Meng Zhang will be more thoughtful and secretly increase his defense against Gu Yue's family.

As the leader of a faction, no matter what he thinks in his heart, Meng Zhang's actions on the surface are still to ensure the interests of Taiyi Sect as much as possible.

He very magnanimously expressed his intention to let things go by the past, and fully understood the difficulties that the Gu Yue family had faced in the past.

Gu Yue Youlan had a good relationship with him when he was still a monk in the Foundation Establishment Stage. Of course, he would not blame his old friend.

The senior Gu Yue Huaidie was of great help to him, and he has never forgotten it.

No matter what unpleasant things happened between the Gu Yue family and the Taiyi Sect, Gu Yue Huaidie will always be his best friend, Meng Zhang.

In front of Gu Yue Youlan, Meng Zhang showed no arrogance as a real Jindan person. He still showed an approachable and equal attitude.

Meng Zhang certainly hopes that the future interactions between the Taiyi Sect and the Gu Yue Family will return to normal as soon as possible.

Meng Zhang's attitude made Gu Yue Youlan very satisfied. She had finally achieved the purpose of her visit.

Although Gu Yue Youlan is only a foundation-building monk, as a disciple of Gu Yue Huaidie, she is also the next generation of Tianji Master trained by the family. Within the Gu Yue family, her status is second only to those of the Golden Core Stage elders.

Like Taiyi Sect, a Jindan sect with only one Jindan master, if it weren't for Meng Zhang's relationship, she might not necessarily think highly of him.

For Meng Zhang, there is a huge difference between the Gu Yue family and the current Taiyi Sect. Although this thigh is unreliable, we still have to work hard to hold on to it.

Now Taiyi Sect occupies a territory as large as Yaofeng Gobi and has very rich resources. In the eyes of many families in Gale City, Taiyi Sect is a sect with great development potential.

Within the Jiuqu Alliance, there are forces that have long coveted Yaofeng Gobi's resources. However, because of True Lord Tianzhu, no force has ever dared to invade rashly before.

In the eyes of the surrounding cultivation forces, the Endless Sand Sea, the Demonic Wind Gobi and the Death Sand Sea are all regarded as the territory of True Monarch Tianzhu by default.

Taiyimen developed these resources and shipped them to Gale City for sale, which gave them a channel to obtain these resources.

The Gu Yue family is eager to repair the relationship with the Taiyi Sect. A large part of the reason is for the various resources of Yaofeng Gobi.

Gu Yue Youlan stayed in Xiongshi Ridge for several days, and after negotiating the details of the continued cooperation between the two parties, she said goodbye and left.

After Gu Yue Youlan left, Meng Zhang summoned the elders of the sect to discuss the Taiyi Sect's business plan.

Nowadays, among the Taiyi Sect, there are more and more monks who are successful in the various arts of cultivation. On weekdays, they can meet part of the needs of the sect. However, the Taiyi Sect still needs to purchase a large amount of supplies from the outside world, especially in wars.

During this period, Taiyi Sect had greater demand for external supplies.

What happened this time proved that a seemingly neutral trading city like Gale City was simply unreliable at critical moments.

Taiyi Sect cannot place all its business lifeline on Gale City.

The next step is for Taiyi Sect to find ways to open up new trade channels.

This is easier said than done.

Taiyi Sect now occupies a large territory in Yaofeng Gobi and Endless Sand Sea.

To the north is the Dead Sand Sea, so there is no such thing as trade.

To the northeast is the Qijia of Mobei.

The Mobei Qi family's territory is very barren, with not much production, and the family itself does not have strong production capabilities, so it is of little help to the Taiyi Sect.

In fact, it is the Mobei Qi family that is begging for the Taiyi Sect now.

The Qi family in Mobei has been suppressed by the Feihong Sect for many years, and its external trade channels are limited. It is only through the occasional blood transfusions from True Lord Qi Mingyun that the family can persist.

With Taiyi Sect, a powerful new neighbor, the Mobei Qi family has a convenient trade channel. The Mobei Qi family also needs to purchase elixirs, talismans and other items from Taiyi Sect.

The trade with the Mobei Qi family was not very profitable, but it was still profitable, so the Taiyi Sect was maintained.

To the east of Taiyi Gate is Feihong Sect. The resources produced by both sides are highly overlapping, and there are few places where they can exchange their needs.

After Feihong Sect experienced great changes, its production capacity was greatly reduced.

The trade relationship with Feihong Sect is not of much help to Taiyi Sect.

The Feihong Sect continues to the east, and there is a section of the border that borders the prairie.

The business dealings with the prairie are forbidden by the Feihong Sect and no one else is allowed to get involved.

To the west of Taiyi Gate is the remaining part of Yaofeng Gobi. It is still the territory of monsters, and there are many third-level monsters living there.

Given the current strength of the Taiyi Sect, it would be a great blessing if those monsters did not take the initiative to attack the Taiyi Sect.

The Taiyi Sect, with only one Jindan master named Meng Zhang, is really unable to continue to expand in that direction.

Moreover, what everyone is discussing now is the sect’s business issues, not the sect’s next expansion direction.

There will be no business dealings between Taiyi Sect and those monsters.
