Supreme Divine Physician in the City Chapter 1536: Storm Alliance

Lin Tong was the first to get into the car.

This left a few people standing there, completely bewildered, especially Ye Xuan, who wore a peculiar smile.

Ever since little Yun Duo entered their lives, Lin Tong had undergone a significant transformation. Previously, the Eastern Group occupied the paramount position in her life; however, now, even if the Eastern Group faced grave crises, it didn't seem to command the same urgency.

Women, by nature, are deceivers, yet they are also, by nature, mothers.

Nevertheless, discussing critical matters within the confines of a parking lot was hardly appropriate.

Consequently, Ye Xuan and the others did not linger. They promptly entered their respective vehicles, with Chi Lian driving them back towards the Di Hua Yuan villa community.

Not long after, the quartet returned to their residence.

Little Yun Duo was genuinely famished.

The moment she spotted Lin Tong, she eagerly rushed over, vociferously demanding sustenance. Fortunately, Qiuyue had already been diligently working in the kitchen, and very soon, the entire family convened at the dining table to share a meal together.

Following the dinner, Chi Lian took little Yun Duo out for a leisurely stroll.

Within the house, only Ye Xuan, Lin Tong, and Liu Ying remained.

In the vast expanse of the villa's main hall, the atmosphere once again grew somewhat somber.

Amidst the quietude.

Liu Ying let out a faint sigh, remarking, "The Wang Family acted without provocation, launching a sudden assault. They must have effectively severed all avenues for the Eastern Group, making this predicament exceedingly difficult to surmount."

"Without a doubt, the Eastern Group's building materials sector has already faced a complete boycott from all the major dominant corporations within Yan Country," Lin Tong concurred, adding, "If we fail to resolve this issue, the Eastern Group will not only forfeit its building materials business but its stock market value will also experience a precipitous decline. The repercussions for its other ventures would be unimaginable."

"Therefore, we must address this matter with the utmost haste. Otherwise, once the news proliferates, the Eastern Group's esteemed reputation will undoubtedly falter. The longer this situation languishes, the more perilous it becomes," Liu Ying stated with grave seriousness.

Lin Tong shook her head, explaining, "In a capitalist framework, wealth reigns supreme. Although the Wang Family has endured considerable setbacks recently, they remain the Wang Family. Under their immense pressure, the Eastern Group possesses virtually no chance of staging a comeback."

Liu Ying pondered for a moment, then offered, "Unless a capitalist entity of comparable stature to the Wang Family is willing to extend its assistance to the Eastern Group during this critical juncture."

Lin Tong responded, "At this juncture, the only entity potentially willing to intervene would be the Li Family. However, even with their support, it remains exceptionally challenging for us to engineer a reversal of fortunes."

Liu Ying replied, "Precisely. In terms of capital, lineage, and connections, the Li Family is by no means inferior to the Wang Family. Yet, in high-stakes competitions, the key lies in who makes the initial move. The Wang Family struck first, placing us at an inherent disadvantage. Even if the Li Family lends a hand, it might only serve to mitigate the Eastern Group's losses to a degree, but some losses are presently unavoidable."

"The Wang Family possesses vast wealth and influence; enduring minor losses a few times holds little consequence for them. The Eastern Group isn't even the preeminent entity in the modest East Sea. If we fail to advance, we inevitably regress. Should the ultimate outcome be one of sustained losses, it would be tantamount to a devastating defeat," Lin Tong lamented with a sense of helplessness.

These two, undoubtedly among the foremost business magnates in Yan Country, dove headfirst into the intricate discussion of their predicament the moment they commenced business deliberations.

In a mere handful of minutes, they had meticulously dissected the dire circumstances confronting the Eastern Group and enumerated various potential countermeasures.

Regrettably, every proposed strategy, regardless of its ingenuity, was ultimately deemed unfeasible by both.

Such is the formidable power of capital.

Confronted with overwhelming financial might, regardless of one's acumen or brilliance, and even with an endless stream of ingenious concepts, all such efforts ultimately prove futile and devoid of consequence.

Following a concise evaluation, the two women lapsed back into silence.

Liu Ying shook her head, a wry smile gracing her lips, "I am unable to conceive of a superior resolution."

Lin Tong also emitted a sigh, expressing, "I feel utterly powerless."

Simultaneously, both women turned their gazes towards Ye Xuan, as throughout their entire strategic analysis, Ye Xuan had remained conspicuously silent.

Perceiving their collective attention, Ye Xuan's expression consequently adopted a somber mien.

Lin Tong's heart constricted slightly, her spirits already sinking.

Having resided together for an extended period, on every prior occasion when difficulties arose, Ye Xuan would project an aura of calm indifference, stemming from his unwavering conviction that he could effortlessly resolve any issue, a feat he had consistently accomplished.

This time, however, his demeanor exhibited an uncharacteristic gravity, presumably indicating that he too perceived the gravity of the situation?

Liu Ying inquired, her lips pressed together, "Ye Xuan, do you perhaps have any insights?"

"Insights I possess, and perhaps it represents the sole viable path forward for the Eastern Group at this moment."

Ye Xuan gave a slight shake of his head, accompanied by a smile, "The concept itself is straightforward, yet its implementation presents a far more daunting challenge. It is even possible that we may falter in its execution."

Lin Tong urged, "State your proposal first."

"The usual arrangement, go big or go home."

Ye Xuan grinned, his eyes narrowing into a smile. "Since the market within Yan Country has become a dead end, why not shift our focus to the international stage? Surely the combined markets of all world nations far surpass that of Yan Country?"

"The global market?"

Upon hearing Ye Xuan's audacious thought, both Lin Tong and Liu Ying were taken aback.

Indeed, Ye Xuan's pronouncements never failed to leave them astonished!

The air hung heavy with anticipation for a moment.

Liu Ying remarked with a perplexed expression, "In theory, outside of Yan Country, the Wang Family's influence would certainly diminish, making it a viable strategy. However, how could the Eastern Group, with its current capacity and strength, possibly contend with such an immense global market?"

"That's precisely why my proposition, while appearing straightforward, is indeed quite challenging to implement."

Ye Xuan chuckled. "But difficulty does not equate to impossibility. If we can address the most critical obstacles, this ambitious plan can very well succeed."

"Land."

Lin Tong's brow furrowed slightly as he grasped the core issue. "The Eastern Group's existing building materials market is confined to the Jianghai region. To suddenly expand globally necessitates a vastly increased production capacity, which in turn requires at least a tenfold increase in manufacturing plants. Constructing these facilities demands an enormous quantity of land resources."

"Precisely! That is the most fundamental prerequisite."

Liu Ying nodded in agreement. "However, given that the Wang Family has already made their move, they are undoubtedly monitoring our every step. Wang Qianjun, that cunning old fox, has likely foreseen our strategy and has already made contact with major land authorities. In the short term, it will be exceedingly difficult for us to secure adequate suitable land."

"The Wang Family wields considerable power and can indeed sever our lifeline. However, let us not forget the existence of the Storm Alliance," Ye Xuan stated with a gentle smile.

"The Storm Alliance?"

Liu Ying shook her head. "That seems improbable. Although the Storm Alliance has completely supplanted the former Jianghai Chamber of Commerce, it would still be immensely difficult for them to shield the Eastern Group from the Wang Family's pervasive pressure."

"Consider Sun Kun; he is from the Jianghai region and doesn't fear the Storm Alliance because he is backed by the formidable Wang Family. Publicly, there are indeed few who dare to openly defy the Wang Family's might within this country."

"The reason the Storm Alliance hesitates before the Wang Family is their own lack of a powerful patron."

Ye Xuan grinned, his interest piqued as he inquired, "But what if the Li Family were to lend their support to the Storm Alliance?"
