Man With Super Medical Skill novel Chapter 3391

Leanna had already anticipated that once they enforced the economic blockade, it would cause disruptions for businesses of all sizes in Eastcliff. To counter this, she promptly issued a notice under Matthew's name, announcing plans to acquire surplus parts from various enterprises.

Eastcliff is Matthew's stronghold, and if the local businesses go under, it will undoubtedly affect the city's growth and stability.

…

Meanwhile, at the Cunningham Residence in Bainbridge, Terrance sat with a grim expression at the top of the guest hall. Mark and Regis were seated on either side of him, while behind them stood the heads of numerous minor families.

"Is this blockade just for show? Why hasn't Eastcliff fallen into chaos yet?" Terrance's icy gaze swept over everyone as he angrily demanded an explanation.

In the past, their economic monopolies would trigger widespread panic, pushing some businesses into bankruptcy. The fallout was often so severe that people would even take drastic measures like committing suicide. What frustrated Terrance this time was that, despite their efforts, Eastcliff stayed composed, showing no signs of turmoil.

As the room fell silent, Mark stepped in to ease the tension. "Terrance, don't be so hasty. We've successfully swayed international opinion, but domestically, Eastcliff is Matthew's stronghold, making it difficult to create chaos here."

Mark's words made Terrance's gaze flicker. "Since we can't make any real headway in Eastcliff, let's lift the blockade for now. If the authorities get wind of this, it could backfire on us."

Hearing this, both Mark and Regis nodded in agreement. The blockade on Eastcliff had been meant to quickly cripple Matthew's businesses, but they hadn't expected him to recover so quickly. After some initial disruption, things had stabilized. At this point, even the strongest economic blockades from several powerful families won't cause those businesses to collapse.

"We need to shift our focus and resources toward the economic blockade and media manipulation efforts in the Montiria. Terrance adopted a frail demeanor again as he addressed the steward beside him. "Ben, update everyone on the situation in Montiria."

"Yes," Ben responded, stepping forward to address the room. "According to the latest reports, Dornia is already in turmoil, and the public is fiercely debating whether the rumors about Montiria are true. It also seems that Matthew has some kind of live stream planned for tomorrow morning."

His words sparked thoughtful silence among those gathered. After a moment, Mark spoke. "How effective has our blockade been so far?"

Ben looked at Mark and replied earnestly, "As soon as we started the blockade, Matthew immediately secured funds to keep his businesses afloat. So, in reality, we haven't done much damage."

Ben's words darkened the expressions of the leaders present.

We've put so much effort into these economic blockades and monopolies, yet it feels like none of it is making a difference.

Mark seemed to have anticipated this all along. "It's no surprise. Matthew is highly capable; we can't take him lightly," he said gently, trying to reassure the heads of the minor families behind him. Then, with a cold smirk, he added, "As for those backing him financially, they don't yet realize who they're dealing with; I'll teach them a lesson when I return. And don't worry about Montiria—there's still a long way to go!"
