Yang Jian had no way to refuse this mission.
Previously, he had hoped other captains would handle the Ghost Lake Incident, but now Cao Yang had fallen into it. One captain was already trapped, and Captain Yinzi from the Ghost Post Office had also been confirmed missing in the Ghost Lake Incident. That meant the operations of two captains had failed.
Who else could they count on now?
If they did not deal with it soon, the situation would worsen, and even Dachang City would no longer be safe.
So anyone truly smart should unite the other captains at a time like this, resolve this supernatural incident in one go, and see whether they could rescue the missing Cao Yang and Captain Yinzi while they were at it.
Although Yang Jian feared trouble, he still possessed the necessary sense of the bigger picture.
Otherwise, he would not have been able to hold the position of captain.
So he agreed. But agreeing was one thing; he still had to ask for what he was owed. After all, he only carried the title of captain without receiving the resources a captain was supposed to enjoy.
"Yang Jian, these are exceptional circumstances. You need to break this habit of hiking up the price on the spot."
Cao Yanhua was not angry. He merely tried to persuade him patiently.
After all, Yang Jian had already agreed. Given his reputation, he certainly would not go back on his word. As for negotiating the price, Headquarters had no shortage of people skilled in that area.
Yang Jian said, "Anything that can be solved with money is no real problem. Since we're putting the bigger picture first, Deputy Minister, spending a little more is still money well spent. Besides, I just resolved the Ghost Post Office incident
