Chapter 2481: Cup-Smashing as a Signal

~8 min read 1,527 words

At this very moment.

More than two hundred Cavalry Guards wearing copper mine work clothes had arrived at the staff auditorium of the copper mine one after another.

This staff auditorium was a building that already existed when the Anti-Qing Society acquired this copper mine. It was built in the 1980s and was mainly used for copper mine staff to hold meetings, celebrate festivals, and hold ceremonies.

After the Anti-Qing Society took over, they let all the Cavalry Guards act as employees of the copper mine and let most of the Cavalry Guards' families act as logistics, making the copper mine look quite well-managed on the surface.

Even if local government officials came to inspect occasionally, they did not notice anything unusual.

At this time, these Cavalry Guards came to the staff auditorium, giving people the feeling that the copper mine was about to hold a mobilization meeting or a summary meeting.

However, if standing from the perspective of a bystander, one would soon discover a problem, which was that among these uniformly dressed employees, more than twenty people were holding a towel in their left hand.

And these people holding towels had been secretly excited, because they felt that after tonight, everyone would have a chance to advance further.

Besides secret excitement, these people had also been paying attention to others around them, ready to be asked about the towels at any time.

However, what made them feel strange was that such an abrupt performance of holding a towel didn't attract anyone to ask.

Every person holding a towel would have some eye contact when seeing another person holding a towel.

But those who didn't hold towels seemed not to have put their towels in their eyes at all.

These people didn't understand why the others' insight was so poor. Along the way, these people didn't seem interested.

And what they didn't know was that these people had actually received orders to pretend to turn a blind eye to their strange behavior on the surface, and just wait for the Special Envoy to smash the cup as a signal later to catch everyone holding a towel in their left hand in one net!

The Cavalry Guards soon arrived.

After counting their subordinates, the three banner chiefs reported to the Chairman respectively.

Unfortunately, only the Cavalry Guards who were determined to break with the Anti-Qing Society knew that this Chairman had become a puppet.

At this time, the Chairman walked to the front of the stage and said loudly, "All Cavalry Guards, listen to the order, welcome the Special Envoy!"

Every Cavalry Guard under the stage shouted excitedly at this time, "Welcome the Special Envoy!"

The Cavalry Guards holding towels were excited because they thought they could make achievements immediately;

And the other Cavalry Guards were excited because they thought they could immediately completely break free from the control of the Anti-Qing Society and realize the greatest dream of their ancestors for generations.

Both sides had their own thoughts, looking forward to the appearance of the Special Envoy.

At this time, Ye Chen, dressed in a black robe but not covering his face with a hat, walked onto the stage under everyone's gaze.

The puppet Chairman stepped back a few steps respectfully, leaving the middle position for Ye Chen.

Seeing the "Special Envoy" reveal his true face for the first time, the Cavalry Guards in the two camps under the stage didn't feel anything unusual.

After all, both sides had their own understanding of Ye Chen's act of revealing his true face.

And Ye Chen stood on the stage at this moment, overlooking the more than two hundred people under the stage, and said with a smile, "Everyone, I believe that for all of you, today is an extraordinary day, a day worth remembering! It is also a day to make achievements!"

The two camps under the stage were even more excited when they heard this because they had their own thoughts.

Ma Chenfei, who was holding a towel, and those colleagues who were holding towels like him, all subconsciously gripped the towels in their hands tighter, as if what they were holding was not a towel, but a ticket to the next glory and wealth.

And they ignored that the Cavalry Guards around them who were not holding towels were quietly looking at them with their peripheral vision, ready to take action against them at any time!

Ye Chen on the stage smiled slightly and said, "Today, I have good news to tell you. The English Lord has formulated a new antidote for you, which can extend the time for the deadly poison in your body to act from once every seven days to fifteen days. I hope you can make achievements for the English Lord in the future!"

After speaking, he waved his right hand and said loudly, "Someone, give medicine, give wine!"

Duan Liye, Qiu Zhiyuan, the Governor, and others heard this and immediately stepped forward to distribute the antidote to everyone, and at the same time arranged for several middle and high-level Cavalry Guards to take the white wine and wine glasses that had been prepared in advance and pour a glass for every Cavalry Guard.

Among them, Ma Chenfei was particularly diligent in handing the first glass of wine to Ye Chen.

In his view, after today, he would become the Commander here, jumping to become the leader of the Cavalry Guards. In the future, he would inevitably see the "Special Envoy" more often, so flattering the "Special Envoy" was naturally the best.

Ye Chen took the wine glass and said meaningfully, "Work hard, I am optimistic about you!"

Ma Chenfei was shaking with excitement and said respectfully, "Don't worry, Special Envoy! I have prepared to be loyal to the Special Envoy! I will never let the Special Envoy down!"

Ye Chen held the wine glass and said with a smile, "No, not for me, but for the English Lord!"

Ma Chenfei nodded like a chicken pecking at rice and hurriedly changed his words, "You are right! I will naturally be loyal to the English Lord!"

After speaking, Ma Chenfei was afraid that others would see clues, so he hurriedly said, "Special Envoy, if you have no other instructions, I will return to the team first."

Ye Chen looked at the towel wrapped around his wrist and nodded slightly, smiling indifferently, "You go."

After all the Cavalry Guards picked up the wine glasses and the Cavalry Guards who had not taken the medicine got the new antidote, Ye Chen then said, "Everyone, take this antidote, and the deadly poison in your body will completely disappear. From now on, no one will be able to use such despicable means to continue to control your lives!"

A group of Cavalry Guards who did not hold towels shouted excitedly and then swallowed the antidote they had just received without hesitation.

Ma Chenfei and a group of people were mocking this bunch of fools in their hearts. Ma Chenfei, in particular, was gloating in his heart: "What a bunch of idiots. You believe this kind of thing? Why don't you use your brains and think about how the English Lord could let you lose control? The Special Envoy is just teasing you."

However, his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and he secretly thought: "The rebellious bones of this bunch of idiots have been stimulated. Now they are excited. I don't know how the Special Envoy will end this later? In case these people really want to betray the organization, the twenty of us are not their opponents... I don't know if the Special Envoy can make them submit if he tells the truth?"

Just when he was nervous and suspicious in his heart, the Cavalry Guards around him had already felt the disappearance of the deadly poison in their bodies, and everyone was ecstatic.

And Ma Chenfei's subordinates were holding the antidote, not knowing whether to eat it or not.

At this time, Ye Chen heard loudly, "Everyone, I think you already know what I am going to do tonight, so I won't say more. Today, I drink this glass of wine with everyone, swearing to pull the Anti-Qing Society out by the roots and eliminate future troubles!"

A group of Cavalry Guards shouted excitedly, "Pull out by the roots, eliminate future troubles!"

When Ma Chenfei heard this, he was so scared that his whole body trembled, and he secretly thought: "The Special Envoy is too involved in the play. He dares to say such rebellious words..."

Unlike him and his subordinates, the Cavalry Guards who had taken the antidote were staring at the wine glass in Ye Chen's hand with burning eyes, waiting for Ye Chen's final signal!

Just when Ma Chenfei was panicked by Ye Chen's "rebellion", Ye Chen suddenly raised his head and drank the white wine in the glass, then threw the wine glass to the ground forcefully, and said loudly, "All soldiers, listen to the order!"

A group of Cavalry Guards roared sternly, "Subordinates are here!"

Ye Chen smiled, waved his hand, and said loudly, "Do it!" ===== CHAPTER 2482 =====
