"You don't need to worry about who will build the new building."
"I already have an absolutely perfect candidate in mind for the construction."
"Oh? Who?" Luo Nan tilted his head slightly, asking with some curiosity. A
team that Tang Yuehua would describe as absolutely perfect was definitely not an ordinary construction team.
"The Yu Clan, one of the four affiliated sects of the Clear Sky Sect!"
"So it's the Yu Clan!" Luo Nan suddenly realized.
He had almost forgotten about the four affiliated sects of the Clear Sky Sect; the Yu Clan… Their specialty is construction!
They're top-tier civil engineers!
"Yes, the Yu Clan."
"The four major single-attribute sects each have their strengths, and the Yu Clan, besides possessing the extremely powerful defensive martial soul, the Plate Armored Giant Rhinoceros,"
"are most skilled in fortification construction, building sect buildings, and setting up large defensive positions."
"It can be said that in the field of construction, if they claim to be second, no one in the entire Douluo Continent dares to claim to be first."
"Many famous large-scale buildings in the Heaven Dou Empire and the Star Luo Empire, and even some fortresses of top sects, are the work of the Yu Clan."
"The sect buildings they construct are absolutely top-tier, first-class on the continent."
"When the Clear Sky Sect suffered its misfortune, all four major sects were greatly affected."
"The Power Clan remained in Heaven Dou City, barely surviving; the Destruction Clan suffered heavy casualties; and the Agility Clan was impoverished."
"In comparison, the Yu Clan, because of their astonishing defensive capabilities and their lack of involvement in external conflicts, suffered the least damage."
"Later, their entire clan migrated to Longxing City within the Star Luo Empire, where they regained their footing and, relying on their old trade, lived a fairly comfortable life."
Luo Nan stroked his chin. "That does sound like a very suitable candidate."
"However, they are far away in the Star Luo Empire, and they were deeply hurt by the Clear Sky Sect. Can our Moon Pavilion persuade them?"
"If someone else were to ask, it might be difficult, but we have readily available connections." Tang Yuehua smiled slightly.
"Find my uncle."
"Bai He?" Luo Nan immediately realized.
"That's right." Tang Yuehua nodded.
"My uncle is the patriarch of the Min clan. Back then, the four major single-attribute sects were closely allied and had an excellent relationship."
"If my uncle personally goes to Longxing City to contact Niu Gao and explain our grand plan and the generous rewards we can offer, the probability of reaching an agreement is very high."
Tang Yuehua looked at Luo Nan and said seriously,
"Although we need to get the Yu clan involved and have them relocate or work for us long-term,
it will definitely require a huge investment of manpower and resources. We might even need to step in and help them solve some problems."
"However, as long as they are willing to take on this project, what they build will definitely not disappoint us."
"This investment is a sure thing."
Luo Nan slapped his thigh and readily agreed,
"No problem! Problems that can be solved with money and resources are not problems for Moon Pavilion."
"The buildings constructed by the Yu clan are renowned throughout the Douluo Continent. I have complete confidence in having them in charge of the construction of the new base."
"Without further ado, immediately send someone to invite Bai He over."
"Alright, I'll arrange it right away." Tang Yuehua acted swiftly, immediately pressing the summons bell on the table and instructing her trusted subordinates to fetch Bai He that very night.
......
About half an hour later, a faint whooshing sound echoed outside the rooftop terrace of Moon Pavilion.
Immediately afterward, a lean yet vigorous figure appeared like a ghost at the study door.
The newcomer was none other than Bai He, the patriarch of the Min clan.
Bai He was now a completely different person from the destitute old man of a few months ago, who was worried sick about the sect's livelihood and even had to swallow his pride and borrow money from all sides.
Since the Min clan completely aligned themselves with Moon Pavilion and latched onto the incredibly powerful Luo Nan, their lives had undergone a dramatic transformation.
Moon Pavilion's immense wealth had directly resolved all of the Min clan's worries.
Not only did the clan members no longer have to worry about food and clothing, but even their cultivation resources were greatly guaranteed.
What made Bai He even more elated was that, through Moon Pavilion's covert efforts, the Min clan had acquired an extremely luxurious mansion in Heaven Dou City.
The scale and extravagance of that mansion even surpassed that of many established noble estates in Heaven Dou City.
Walking the streets of Heaven Dou City, the members of the Min clan could finally stand tall, no longer needing to be subservient to others.
All of this filled Bai He with gratitude towards Luo Nan and Tang Yuehua, and also rekindled his vitality as the clan leader.
"Yuehua, Your Majesty Luo Nan, why have you summoned me so late? Is there some urgent matter that requires the Min clan's attention?"
"Uncle, I'm so sorry to disturb your rest so late."
Tang Yuehua stepped forward and personally poured Bai He a cup of hot tea.
"Indeed, there is a very important matter that requires your personal assistance."
"We're family, no need for formalities, Yuehua, please give your orders."
"As long as it's within my old bones' power, the Min clan will not hesitate!"
Bai He accepted the teacup, speaking with boundless pride.
He was currently worried about not having a chance to repay Moon Pavilion's kindness.
After all, the debts owed to Moon Pavilion and His Majesty were never fully repaid.
Tang Yuehua smiled and nodded, then proceeded to present the territory already granted by the royal family.
She then detailed Moon Pavilion's plan to build a magnificent new city on that barren land to Baihe.
"Build a city?!" Baihe gasped, his eyes wide with shock.
He knew Moon Pavilion was wealthy, but he hadn't expected Luo Nan's ambition to be so vast.
He wanted to build a towering structure right outside Heaven Dou City, establishing his own power center.
"Yes, Uncle," Tang Yuehua said solemnly.
"This new territory is crucial to our future development."
"However, such a massive project is beyond the capabilities of ordinary craftsmen."
"Therefore, we thought of the Yu Clan."
Hearing about the Yu Clan, Baihe's eyes flickered, immediately understanding Tang Yuehua's purpose in summoning him.
"Yuehua, you mean... you want me to go to Longxing City and invite Old Rhinoceros and the others to oversee the construction of this new city?" Baihe asked.
"Exactly," Tang Yuehua nodded.
"I know that what happened to the Clear Sky Sect back then chilled the hearts of the four major sects, and the Yu Clan also harbors considerable resentment towards the Clear Sky Sect."
"But Moon Pavilion is Moon Pavilion, and the Clear Sky Sect is the Clear Sky Sect."
"We hope that Uncle can speak with Clan Chief Niu Gao in your personal capacity."
