Chapter 813: Point Us to the Right Path
Chen Xuan scoffed, "Don't worry about the Xu Family. Just proceed as planned."
Zhang Jun gave a dry laugh, "Chen Xuan, you know well that the Xu Family is a top-tier family, while the Zhang Family is merely third-tier."
"If we really go head-to-head with the Xu Family... I'm afraid the Zhang Family will be crushed in no time!"
Chen Xuan understood what Zhang Jun meant; he just wanted a promise from him.
"Your Zhang Family is working for me. If the Xu Family really takes action against you, I won't stand by idly."
"With me protecting the Zhang Family, the Xu Family won't dare harm you."
Upon hearing this, Zhang Jun immediately relaxed, this was exactly what he needed to hear from Chen Xuan.
"Great, great, as long as you say so, I'm relieved."
"I won't disturb you further. I know what to do, hahaha."
Zhang Jun hung up the phone with a smile and immediately turned to Zhang Dehou, "Dad, Chen Xuan has spoken. He told us to proceed boldly; he will look after our Zhang Family."
Zhang Dehou nodded with a smile, "Just as I anticipated, Chen Xuan is using our Zhang Family as a stepping stone."
"Since that's the case, let's go all out! No need to fear the Xu Family, Chen Xuan will shield us."
"Hmm, now I'm not worried, hahaha." Zhang Jun laughed heartily.
Internally filled with anticipation, if they handled this matter well, the Zhang Family would undoubtedly advance by leaps and bounds.
They would become the most dazzling presence among the second-tier families.
They might even have a chance to ascend to the ranks of the top-tier families.
After hanging up, Chen Xuan looked at Lin Wanxi, "The plan is already successful, let's lure the Xu Family out!"
Lin Wanxi chuckled softly, "I want to ask you, in your plan, where do you place the Zhang Family?"
"Do you intend to use them as cannon fodder, or are you planning to leverage them while giving them a chance?"
Chen Xuan smiled indifferently, "It's hard to say right now; it depends on how the Zhang Family performs."
"If they perform well, what harm is there in giving them a chance? But if they can't withstand the test and crumble, even if given an opportunity, it would be a waste."
Lin Wanxi nodded slightly, "Actually, what I want to say is, go ahead and do what you need to do, don't worry about my relationship with the Zhang Family."
"Even if you ultimately use the Zhang Family as cannon fodder, I won't have any objections."
Chen Xuan felt very comforted; Lin Wanxi's full support, not burdening him mentally, was truly rare.
"Let's head back; this matter is unrelated to you, and don't let New Moon Company get involved."
Chen Xuan said softly, "Leave it to the Zhang Family to handle, I will manage it properly."
"Alright, I'll follow your lead." Lin Wanxi nodded with a smile.
A day passed, and the Zhang Family did not retract their production technology, instead increasing production.
After nightfall, the Xu Family, not seeing any response from the Zhang Family, was extremely furious.
"They actually turned a deaf ear to our Xu Family's ban!"
"The Zhang Family is courting death! How dare they disregard our Xu Family!"
Xu Cailiang said angrily.
Xu Jinglong also looked displeased, "It seems if we don't give the Zhang Family a lesson, they won't know when to retreat."
"First thing tomorrow, suppress the Zhang Family with full force and give them a final notice. If they still don't know when to retreat, destroy them!"
...
The next morning, the Xu Family launched a strike against the Zhang Family.
They didn't go for the kill immediately but gave the Zhang Family a serious warning.
Housekeeper Xu also brought the latest instructions to Zhang Dehou, that if the Zhang Family continued on their path, they would suffer the Xu Family's frenzied retaliation, leaving no way out.
For a moment, the Zhang Family was in turmoil internally; they hadn't expected the Xu Family to truly mean business.
"Zhang Jun, immediately call Chen Xuan and ask for his guidance. We've done as he instructed, and now we need him to shield our Zhang Family from the Xu Family's pressure."
Zhang Dehou urged urgently.
"Alright." Zhang Jun dared not delay and immediately called Chen Xuan to explain the situation, "Chen Xuan, the Xu Family isn't joking this time; they're really taking action against us."
"What do you think... what should we do now?"
Chen Xuan chuckled softly, "I'll head to the Zhang Family now; nothing big will happen."
After hanging up, Chen Xuan informed Lin Wanxi and drove to the Zhang Family.
In the main hall.
Zhang Dehou and Zhang Jun were both there, and upon seeing Chen Xuan arrive, they quickly rose to greet him.
"Chen Xuan, what should we do now?" Zhang Dehou asked with a pleasing smile.
Chen Xuan lit a cigarette and said softly, "I'll be frank, this is a test for your Zhang Family to see if you can withstand the pressure."
"If you perform well, elevating the Zhang Family to a second-tier family is not a problem; there's even a chance to join the first-tier ranks."
In an instant, Zhang Dehou and Zhang Jun were both thrilled.
They had been speculating secretly, but hearing it directly from Chen Xuan confirmed it.
"Chen Xuan, we will definitely follow your instructions to the letter, without any compromise."
"But the problem is, the strength gap between our Zhang Family and the Xu Family is too vast; directly confronting them is clearly an act of self-destruction."
Zhang Jun smiled wryly, "Please show us a clear path so we know how to proceed."
