chapter 212: war wealth after occupying the territory that originally belonged to twin success valley, forest spring watch ceased all other actions. forest mountain school, taiyi sect, qiaoshou sect, golden blade sect, and shi family all proclaimed themselves as vassals of forest spring watch, as if they had become loyal followers of forest spring watch. even without any demand from forest spring watch, these forces voluntarily offered tributes to it. however, forest spring watch's true strength was still far from that of the former twin success valley. nevertheless, as long as daoist master guang zhi remained stable, these forces would be incredibly loyal, obedient, and honest. for taiyi sect and other factions, although they now had an additional lord, forest spring watch's actions were relatively moderate and much easier to get along with compared to the past twin success valley. furthermore, forest spring watch had become a gold core sect, which dignified its vassals and prevented them from losing face. in a somewhat humorous manner, going from being a vassal of a foundation building sect like twin success valley to a vassal of a gold core sect like forest spring watch was considered a significant progress for these factions. the entire region became peaceful with no major conflicts, and trade routes were reestablished, allowing various cultivation resources to flow freely. after discussions with gu tanghai, who managed singing sand city, forest spring watch voluntarily handed over a large portion of the city's shares to them. although forest spring watch hesitated initially, it eventually accepted the shares and became the new owner of singing sand city. however, they did not burn bridges and continued to let gu tanghai manage the city. forest spring watch held the majority shares, while shi family and the other four sects had some shares as well. with everyone's united efforts, singing sand city began to recover its vitality. the shang family, who had voluntarily left singing sand city before, started returning, and shops reopened one after another. even four seas building reopened, and it was rumored that flying swan building would also resume business soon. flying swan sect, as the ruler of endless sea of sand, willingly abandoned its significant interests in singing sand city. excluding northern desert's qi family, forest spring watch became the second gold core sect in the endless sea of sand, earning the respect of flying swan sect in various aspects. despite forest spring watch repeatedly expressing its subservience to flying swan sect, the latter insisted on treating forest spring watch as an equal. the vassal factions of forest spring watch also benefited from this new status. four seas building, previously offering intermediary services and task announcements for cultivators, especially loose cultivators, handed over this business entirely to shi family and gu tanghai. when caravans sent by forest spring watch and its vassals passed through other forces' territories, they received various advantages and discounts on tolls. even the commercial taxes imposed by flying swan sect were reduced. as a foundation building sect, taiyi sect indeed needed such a commercial base. zhang zhanlin was very concerned about the face of taiyi sect in this matter, so he not only purchased many high-quality materials but also spent a considerable sum to acquire construction talismans. the several small giants currently engaged in the construction were summoned through the use of construction talismans. meng zhang named this commercial base "hengyuan building" and put zhang zhanlin in charge of its operation. the sect would also send disciples to assist him and provide guards for the place. meng zhang originally planned to open a shop in firewell market during this visit to singing sand city. however, considering its distance (over four thousand miles away from taiyi sect) and the chaos caused by the sand monster turmoil, the business in firewell market was exceptionally booming, and shop rents had skyrocketed, making it difficult to find one. meng zhang didn't want to make money for landlords for nothing, so he decided that when the opportunity arose, he would directly purchase a shop in firewell market. taking advantage of this visit to singing sand city, meng zhang explored the city thoroughly. although singing sand city was still far from its peak, everything was heading in a positive direction, with vitality gradually recovering, and trade flourishing. after strolling around, meng zhang was about to leave when he noticed that ruan dadao from golden blade sect sneaked into singing sand city's affairs hall. this was where gu tanghai spent most of his time. when did ruan dadao become close with gu tanghai? what was he planning behind the backs of the other sects? curious in his heart, meng zhang didn't hurry to leave singing sand city but patiently waited. after a while, ruan dadao finally came out of the affairs hall, and gu tanghai personally escorted him to the door.
