He snapped his head toward the burly man who had spoken and glared. Milo and a few other former Black Rats members rushed over as well, their eyes full of hostility.

“What the hell did you just say?!” Isaac stepped forward. He was shorter than the man, but he radiated no less presence. “What kind of attitude is that?! Are you disrespecting Boss’s orders? Or looking down on us for busting our asses?”

Scarface’s underling found himself surrounded. Fear crept into his chest, but he stubbornly refused to back down. “What? So I can’t even speak the truth now? You guys are just-”

Before he could finish, Isaac’s fist slammed into him. “That’s for mouthing off! Who gave you the right to talk crap about Boss?!”

Milo chimed in from the side, kicking as he cursed, “Yeah! What the hell do you newbies know? Around here, if you listen, you get food! If you work, you get rewards! Ain’t that way better than risking your lives out there? And you still dare look down on us? I’m beating you because you don’t know the damn rules!”

The others also joined in, giving the loudmouthed man a solid thrashing.

They held back enough not to go overboard, but it was more than enough to leave him writhing in pain. His swagger was completely gone.

Tiffany watched everything happen, but she didn’t move to stop it at first. She just stood there, looking calm and cold.

Only after the burly man started begging and Isaac’s group had let out their anger did she finally speak flatly, “That’s enough.”

Isaac and the others stopped right away and stepped back obediently, as if they hadn’t been acting so savage just moments ago.

Tiffany’s gaze swept across the scared new captives, then stopped on the bruised and swollen burly man. Her voice stayed steady, but the power behind it made her meaning crystal clear.

“If you obey and work hard here, you live. You get a chance at a future. Questioning or causing trouble means you’re asking to die. This is your first warning–and your last. Got it?”

“Y–Yes, Got it…” The burly man and the rest of the newcomers quickly lowered their heads and answered, too scared to argue at all,

Isaac and the others lifted their chests, feeling a strange sense of pride filling them.

They were still at the bottom, but in this place, they had found a new kind of order. And they were ready to protect this hard–earned order that finally gave them a tiny bit of hope.

Tiffany soon reported the small conflict between the old and new captives on the farm to Elizabeth.

After hearing about it, Elizabeth only raised an eyebrow and said, “Isaac and those guys really are getting better at judging situations.”

Then she told Tiffany, “From now on, write down everyone’s behavior carefully, whether it’s good or bad. I’ll need those records later.”

She took the order and left right away.

Elizabeth turned her thoughts back to the upcoming Centria Planet Market Day.

The three–day cycle was almost finished again, so she needed to prepare for another trip to Centria Planet to run her stall.

With smooth, practiced moves, she logged into the Free Market platform and posted the presale link.

This time, besides potatoes, she added sweet potatoes.

Sweet potatoes needed two more days to grow than potatoes, and they seemed to store more spiritual energy and had a richer taste as well.

Elizabeth priced the sweet potatoes at 300 stellar coins for 3.5 ounces. That was three whole times higher than the official price of 100 stellar coins listed on Starnet.

But she felt no guilt at all. With the quality she produced, they fully deserved that price.

When she looked at the large fields of potatoes and sweet potatoes that were almost ready to harvest, Elizabeth started to worry,

This batch was going to be huge, and her current storage button probably wouldn’t have enough space. When she got to Centria Planet, she would need to buy several storage buttons with larger capacity.

She had also heard about special storage buttons that could lock in freshness. They were pricey, but if they could keep crops in their best condition, then buying a few might be worth it.

Running a stall like that was too slow and inefficient.

Elizabeth let out a long sigh.

Her selling speed was already starting to lag behind the farm’s production.

If only Garbage Planet 4001 could open a freight route… Then she could open a Starnet shop, send goods out online, and skip all this trouble.

Thinking of that, she quickly searched Starnet for the exact rules needed to open a freight route.

The official page listed several requirements, and one line read, “The route being applied for must keep a stable minimum outward daily transport volume of no less than 1,000 tons.”

Elizabeth rubbed her chin and started calculating. Once her farm products became well–known, that transport amount didn’t seem impossible. It actually looked like something she could reach.
