The supervisor didn’t hesitate at all. He immediately signed off the electronic leave form, then carefully wrapped the remaining sweet potato in plastic film. “Leave approved. What time are we meeting tomorrow? I’m going with you!”
Jonathan watched the supervisor’s complete 180–degree change in attitude, barely holding back a laugh. “Nine a.m. at Mercury Plaza. Better get there early, because if you’re late, you might not even get in line.”
“Got it!” the supervisor nodded solemnly, then suddenly remembered something. “By the way, could I have another small piece of the sweet potato? I want my wife to try it too…”
His household was run by his wife. Without her approval, even if he managed to queue up, he wouldn’t have the money to buy anything.
Jonathan looked at his supervisor’s expectant eyes and reluctantly broke off another small piece from the storage box.
That had been the portion he saved from lunch, originally meant for a late–night snack. Now, only half of it was left.
Meanwhile, the old couple at the Lichtden household were carefully calculating tomorrow’s shopping list.
“We each buy 100. Our son and daughter–in–law each buy 100. That’s 400 per item.” Wallace said as he tapped on his electronic ledger, calculating seriously. “Fenix will definitely share some with his comrades in the military. That should be enough to last him for a while.”
Gianna still looked worried. “But what if Fenix only comes back once a year, like last time? Maybe… we should let Callie take leave
too?”
“Right, right,” Wallace slapped his thigh. “I’ll call our daughter right now!”

Jeremy immediately reported after receiving Elizabeth’s message to Trevor
nd Zaylee.
“Commander, Madam, Mrs. Hewitt has sent word. Tomorrow she will be setting up a stall at Mercury Plaza. She also mentioned the agricultural goods she previously promised to reserve for you two. I will go collect them then,” Jeremy said respectfully.
she set down her teacup. “That girl moves fast.” She “Oh? Eliza is coming to Centria Planet again tomorrow?” Zaylee’s eyes lit up turned to her husband. “What do you think, dear? How much should we send to Cristian?”
Trevor thought for a moment. “Let’s ask Elizabeth how much stock she has first. We shouldn’t clear her out and stop her from running her business.”
The call connected quickly. Elizabeth’s figure appeared on the holographic screen. The background looked like a corner of her farm, with lush crops swaying faintly behind her.
“Commander Hewitt, Mrs. Zaylee,” Elizabeth greeted politely, a faint smile on her face.
“Eliza, I heard from Jeremy that you’ll be setting up a stall at Mercury Plaza tomorrow.” Mrs. Zaylee asked warmly: “What will you be selling this time? Do you have enough stock?”
