Chapter 311 Island Distribution

Bai Qingqian was very satisfied. She did not ask for much, only to maintain a subtle connection.

Mirage was a place where hidden dragons and crouching tigers lurked, with every merchant family backed by powerful forces; otherwise, they simply could not survive here.

Essentially, merchant families that took root here, aside from the numerous local powers, were supported by various national and influential entities; any disputes or entanglements could often be resolved more effectively by the sects' influence than by the merchant families themselves.

Previously, Bai's Trading Company had the support of Anhe Daoist Sect as its backing in Mirage, but the Anhe Daoist Sect was now in domestic disarray and could not take care of itself, let alone look after this place; thus, Anhe's influence was waning here.
