The moment the plan was laid out, the last traces of panic instantly disappeared, replaced by overwhelming relief and excitement.

As long as there was a way to exchange for supplies, whether the recycling station existed or not didn’t really matter anymore.

At worst, they just wouldn’t be able to scavenge for extra income.

But now that they were working on the farm, their earnings were stable and far more generous than they had ever been from picking through trash.

Losing that tiny bit of side income didn’t matter at all.

“That’s amazing! Now we’ve got nothing to worry about!”

“Ms. Schofield is incredible! She even thought of this!”

“What’s there to be afraid of now?!”

“Yeah! Back to work! I haven’t finished turning the soil today!”

“My irrigation trench is only half done!”

Before Elizabeth could say anything else, the gloom on everyone’s faces had already vanished. One by one, they turned back toward the fields, full of energy, calling out as they went.

The heavy tension that had hung over the farm was instantly replaced by movement, purpose, and hope.

Elizabeth watched as the clearing emptied in moments. In the distance, the fields were alive again–figures moving, working, full of life. A faint smile curved her lips.

Seafarm Group thought they could force her into submission with a move like this?

They were underestimating her.

Cut off her route?

Fine. She’ll just build her own.

And she would go farther than any of them could imagine.

“Fiona,” Elizabeth called out, stopping her. “I want you to take full charge of supply procurement and exchange operations. That includes drafting purchase lists, managing inventory, and overseeing daily sales. I’ll leave it all to you.”

Fiona had once managed logistics in the military. Therefore, running a small supply system like this was well within her capabilities.

She only thought for a few seconds before straightening her back. “Yes, Ms. Schofield. Understood. I won’t let you down.”

Elizabeth nodded, fully confident in her.

Then she turned to Melton, Tiffany, and Tyson. “The three of you need to step up recruitment. Reach out to your former comrades and bring in as many people as possible. With the recycling station shutting down, things outside may become unstable. We need

to build our own security and combat team as quickly as possible.”

“Understood!” the three of them responded in unison, their expressions sharp. They all knew this would determine the farm’s survival.

Just as they were discussing recruitment details and initial training plans, a figure suddenly came stumbling into the farm, half crawling, half falling, reeking of blood.

It was Benny, the well–known slacker from Hope Town.

But now, he was covered in blood, his face smeared with dirt, tears, and terror.

The moment he saw Melton, it was like spotting a lifeline. He dropped to his knees with a thud, his voice hoarse as he cried out, “Melton! Tiffany! Help! Please, you have to save Mr. Rose! Save everyone! Something terrible’s happened!”

Melton’s heart dropped. He stepped forward and grabbed Benny by the shoulders. “What happened? Tell me! What about Mr. Rose?”

Benny’s words came out broken, choked with sobs. “It’s… the recycling station… They broadcast that they’re leaving in ten days, so everyone panicked. Mr. Rose took us there… We wanted to exchange all the stellar coins we saved for liquid supplements… We had just arrived outside, and not long after, a huge group of people rushed in from nowhere… They were shouting that if the station wouldn’t care whether they lived or died, they’d fight back… They tried to storm inside and loot supplies… And then, the station activated armed mode… Those energy guns… They just started firing and shooting anyone they saw… Our town… So many people from our town were sho… Mr. Rose tried to protect a few children, and he… He got shot too…” He broke down completely.

Melton, Tiffany, and Fiona all went pale.

Back then, Adam had chosen to stay behind to manage the troublemakers in Hope Town, so they wouldn’t drag everyone else

down.

They had never liked those people.

But aside from them, there were still many kind elders like him. Moreover, there were countless innocent women and children caught up in it all.
