Thinking about the way this guy had treated him before,
he felt even more unhappy.
Throughout the entire exchange, Ye Yuan had been speaking to Xu Hang.
Even when the young man mocked him, Ye Yuan had not spared the guy a single glance.
His gaze remained fixed squarely on Xu Hang.
"The old man has spoken. For the next three days, I'll be responsible for everything here.
If there's no progress within three days, this place will still be handed back to Captain Huang."
Only now did Xu Hang reveal the outcome the two sides had negotiated in the cabin.
Was Xu Hang satisfied with that outcome?
Of course not.
But being able to wrest three days of authority from Young Man Huang
was still a decent result for Xu Hang.
Ye Yuan gave Xu Hang a meaningful look.
He wanted to see even the slightest expression he had been hoping for on the man's face.
But Xu Hang gave him no hint at all.
It seemed Xu Hang was not satisfied with this outcome either.
But how else could he help him? Things had already been said to this extent.
What else was he supposed to do?
Ye Yuan fell into thought.
During the time Ye Yuan was thinking,
Xu Hang and the young man were also exchanging something with their eyes.
Five full minutes passed, yet none of the three spoke first.
At that moment, Ye Yuan had completely adopted a give-up-and-coast mindset.
As a tool, he had the self-awareness of a tool.
His greatest purpose now was not to dive into the sea and uncover information about the shipwreck.
It was to give Xu Hang an excuse to take over this place.
That was his top priority right now.
Otherwise, no matter how great a contribution
