The Starfield Farming Sovereign (Elizabeth Schofield) novel Chapter 188

The Farming Saint in the Starry Wasteland

Chapter 188 Oliver’s Butler

Elizabeth stood frozen, her lips slightly parted, not knowing what to say for a moment.

The reason she created tiered pricing was to stop people from hoarding goods and reselling them at craz prices, which would hurt normal buyers.

She never imagined that strictly following that rule could turn into such a huge money maker.

The last time she ran her stall, she had sold tens of thousands of potatoes, sweet potatoes, and strawberri combined.

Even after selling everything, her total income had only reached several tens of millions of stellar coins.

But today, this single purchase from Jeremy alone had already gone past her previous total, reaching a number so huge it made her feel dizzy.

She

was earning a frightening amount of money.

The way noble families handled things really was on another level.

Elizabeth took a deep breath, forced herself to calm down, and said with a helpless sigh, “Jeremy, I made that price to stop reselling. You really didn’t need to…”

But when she saw his warm yet firm smile, she realized saying more wouldn’t change anything.

So she said, “Then… Please thank Mrs. Zaylee for her kindness. But next time, no more of this.”

No matter what, next time she had to give them a discounted rate. Otherwise, it felt like she was taking advantage of them.

Jeremy gave a small nod and didn’t say anything else. After finishing the purchase, he stepped aside with hi group instead of leaving, as if waiting for someone.

Behind Jeremy stood several other middle–aged and older men, all wearing fitted suits and carrying the same refined air.

The man at the front stepped forward with a smile and introduced himself. “Nice to meet you, Ms. Schofield. My name is Vaughn Tapia. Jeremy introduced us.”

He pointed to the four men behind him. “Just like Jeremy, each of us wants to buy 1,000 strawberries, 1,000 potatoes, and 1,000 sweet potatoes. That’s 3,000 items total.”

Elizabeth was stunned again by the huge number.

Without thinking, she glanced at Jeremy. Did that also follow the tiered price?

He simply smiled and nodded.

So, under the curious, shocked, and slowly numbing stares of the people still waiting in line, Elizabeth repeated the same steps–counting items, receiving payment, and handing over goods.

Vaughn was Oliver’s butler.

Chapter 188 Oliver’s Butler

Since Oliver and Melinda had bought so much, they had gathered four more people to help with the purchases.

In the end, every single transaction came to 180,048,000 stellar coins.

As five massive payments arrived one after another, Elizabeth felt like her device was almost heating up.

The long string of zeros in her balance didn’t even feel real.

And that was only the start.

After Vaughn, over a dozen more people stepped forward one by one. They dressed differently, but all carried the same powerful presence.

Every one of them had been introduced through the Hewitts or the Tapias.

Each person ordered 1,000 of every item and insisted on paying the full tiered price Elizabeth had set.

At first, Elizabeth was shocked. Later, she grew numb. By the end, she wore a practiced smile and repeated the same motions over and over–receiving payment and handing over goods.

The total in her personal account kept climbing at a speed she had never seen before.

When the final wealthy customer finished and left happily, Elizabeth stared at the dizzying numbers in he account. For the first time, she truly understood what it meant for her hands to feel weak after taking in to much money.

She flexed her stiff fingers and felt many emotions rise inside her chest.

She murmured, a sharp light flashing in her eyes, “At this pace, that huge amount needed to build a private route might not be as impossible as before.”

On Centria Planet, inside the Seafarm Select Supermarket, located in the central business district.

The smooth marble floor shone like a mirror under bright crystal chandeliers. A gentle scent floated through the air circulation system, fresh with a hint of swiness, making the place feel classy, clean, and fa away from outside noise.

That was the top shopping spot for the rich and powerful people of Centria Planet to buy the finest natural food.

Uniformed attendants, trained to perfection, wore flawless smiles as they provided careful and thoughtful service to every customer.

In the produce section, where many beautiful fruits and vegetables were displayed, Hannah clung tightly to Zachary’s arm, her face glowing with a sweet and happy smile.

Ever since the Hewitts skipped the Schofields‘ banquet and made their “indifferent” attitude toward Elizabeth obvious, it felt like a heavy pressure had finally been lifted from both the Knights and the Schofields.

Hannah and Zachary’s relationship had also grown sweeter, deeper, and more intense.

“Zachary, look over there. I heard premium strawberries are on sale today!” Hannah said in a sugary voice, pointing toward a carefully decorated display counter not far away.

Zachary gently squeezed her hand, his voice soft and affectionate. “I know how much you love strawberries so I kept track of the news and brought you here on purpose. Come on, let’s check them out. If you like them, we’ll buy as many as you want.”

The two of them leaned closely together as they walked toward the premium strawberry display. Their clingy sweetness made a few nearby shoppers glance over with quiet envy.

At the premium strawberry counter, inside a clear refrigerated display case, strawberries as large as an adult’s fist were arranged in perfect rows.

They were bright, glossy red, their surfaces smooth and shiny like they had been polished, eye–catching enough to attract attention instantly.
