Chapter 1391: Chapter 1392: The Oppressive Feeling from the Shang Clan
Shang Qingcheng said: “This ti, most of the architecture and dical-related enterprises in Jijing and Capital City will be sending representatives to attend the seminar.
Everyone is trying to earn goodwill from the three Sage Doctors.
That way, it’s easier to secure collaboration opportunities.
Everyone sees this as a major plan for the future!”
This ti, the traditional dicine seminar is being held at the headquarters of Capital dical Group.
The location boasts a magnificent and impressive office building.
In the past, only renowned Western dicine experts qualified to be here, as it was said that the wife of the Royal dical Group chairman exclusively trusted Western dicine.
Little did anyone expect, such a high-end conference hall now also hosts a platform for traditional Chinese dicine.
Shang Qingcheng was certainly not here alone.
Before her arrival, Zhang Qi had already ford a think tank pulled from the current Dashang Group.
This team consisted of individuals with strong business capabilities who were also relatively new to the company, making them easier to influence and bring into her fold.
Shang Qingcheng had made ample preparations for this business opportunity, not relying on luck.
She carried an aura of determination.
She had entrusted Zhang Qi to investigate the strengths and weaknesses of her competitors, so she was well-inford coming into this.
Even so, when Shang Qingcheng arrived here, she felt sothing was off about the atmosphere.
She was confident that she had never offended the businesspeople here.
But sohow, they all harbored a palpable hostility toward her.
“Shang Yan!”
When Shang Qingcheng spotted one of the individuals, everything suddenly beca clear to her.
Shang Yan, the representative of one of the Shang Clan’s four major companies, Eastern Group!
The Shang Clan has five major companies: Dongsheng Group, West Bull Group, Beiju Group, Nanzhan Group, and Holy Land Group.
Holy Land Group is the core company and acts as the leader of the other four major groups.
Any one of Shang Clan’s five companies rivals the strength of Empire Group.
This is the terrifying power of the Shang Clan.
Today, Eastern Group is representing the Shang Clan because its primary industries are real estate, construction, and dical services.
The headquarters of Eastern Group is also based in Capital City.
Once again, she found herself targeted by the Shang Clan.
Moreover, they had allied with other companies to co after her—it was ruthless and absolute.
“Heh, Shang Qingcheng. Do you think that just because Shang Luoying made you chairman, you’ll rise to prominence? Think again.”
Shang Yan sneered, “Years ago, when you defied the Clan Leader, you should have been punished for life.”
Shang Qingcheng frowned and looked at Xiao Chen, saying, “That’s Eastern Group’s Marketing Manager, Shang Yan. Rember him, and don’t provoke him.
As you can see, all I did was reject the Shang Clan Leader’s proposal for marriage, and now, he holds a lifelong grudge against , even wanting to destroy .
We can’t afford to make enemies here.
This deal today… seems dood.”
Though Shang Qingcheng arrived with imnse confidence, she now felt like a cold bucket of water had been dumped over her; every inch of her body felt frozen.
“So you’re the wild brat?”
Shang Yan sneered at Xiao Chen. “There’s quite a lot of chatter about you. Apparently, Shang Qingcheng’s position as Dashang Group’s chairman was secured by you.”
“Mom, is this dog not on a leash? How can it just bark freely as soon as it walks in? Tell , how is the Shang Clan fit to still claim the title of Dragon Country’s number one family?
Back in the day, the Shang Clan could stand shoulder-to-shoulder with Linhai’s Xiao Family. Now, I doubt even that reputation holds true.
An unruly dog reflects poorly on its people as well.”
Xiao Chen had a different personality compared to Shang Qingcheng.
He was soone who never forgot grudges and refused to compromise or back down.
Unless t with an opponent he truly couldn’t contend with, he feared no one.
And right now, there didn’t seem to be anyone he considered unbeatable.
So naturally, he wasn’t intimidated by anyone.
“You! What did you just say, you wild brat!”
Shang Yan’s face flushed with anger, his veins bulging—clearly unused to being insulted, he struggled to adapt.
In this country, there were very few who dared to curse a mber of the Shang Clan.
“Oh, look, the dog is seeing red now.”
Xiao Chen smirked, while others around struggled to suppress their laughter, wary of upsetting Shang Yan, whose status in the business circle was undoubtedly significant.
“What’s your move, care to hit ?”
Xiao Chen asked.
“Barbarian! I won’t waste words on you. Just keep in mind, in this world, nobody calls a dog and walks away unscathed—I hope you can live peacefully after this.”
Shang Yan gritted his teeth as he spoke.
At that mont, soone suddenly entered the room.
All conversations and whispers stopped instantly.
The seating in the hall was divided into three sections.
The first row was the expert section, consisting of only ten or so seats, three of which were extraordinarily special—they were reserved for the three Sage Doctors;
The subsequent rows were the doctor section, prepared for the attending physicians, numbering over a thousand within monts.
Each person was dressed in traditional Dragon Country attire, seemingly as a gesture of respect toward national dicine.
Yet, in Xiao Chen’s opinion, attire wasn’t important; what mattered was whether one had truly grasped the essence of traditional dicine.
Those who made it here were either rising stars in the field or highly skilled masters.
Each individual’s identity carried significance, earning the admiration of the masses.
Of course, there were inevitably charlatans in the mix—it was an unavoidable reality.
The man who walked in now, capable of silencing all the experts, was no joke.
He was none other than Shang Clan’s Divine Doctor, one of the National dical Saints—Shang Bianque.
Simultaneously, he was the President of the Traditional dicine Association in Capital Prefecture.
Shang Bianque’s arrival truly carried a presence.
All the murmuring and discussions in the hall ceased instantly.
Almost everyone stood up.
“Greetings, Sage Shang!”
“Please, sit down.”
Shang Bianque scanned the crowd and noticed Xiao Chen, who didn’t budge, furrowing his brow.
Once everyone had sat back down, he faced Xiao Chen and said, “Why didn’t you stand up?”
“Why should I stand up?”
Xiao Chen cast a glance at Shang Bianque, replying, “First, I don’t like you; you only treat the wealthy and disregard the lives of ordinary people;
Second, I don’t know you; we’re not acquaintances, and you’re not a senior mber of my family;
Third, you’ve rely borrowed the Shang Clan’s fa to attain the title of Sage Doctor—compared to Elder Zhong and Elder Nan, you fall far short;
Fourth, you’re a Shang Clan mber. That Shang Clan Leader, Shang Jun, is a petty bastard; he pursued my mother years ago, failed, and spent the rest of his life opposing her. I loathe all of you Shang Clan mbers!
So, what makes you think you qualify to make stand up?”
Xiao Chen had never held Shang Bianque in high regard, and today he was speaking his mind.
Moreover, given his standing, there was no need for him to rise—if anything, Shang Bianque should be the one greeting him, bowing and paying respect.
Shang Bianque’s expression soured, but before he could respond, the physician crowd burst out in indignation.
“This young man has no sense of propriety!”
“Absolutely! Too arrogant, daring to disrespect Sage Shang!”
