Chapter 324 Respect the Farm Owner
He only replied coldly, “That farm belongs to Elizabeth. It’s her private property, and she has full authority to set her own business rules. As for why certain people were refused entry, maybe you should ask own men what they’ve said and done online and in real life.”
“Stop dodging the issue!” Roman clearly didn’t accept that answer.

He turned suddenly toward Gabriel, who had stayed silent until now. “Commander Hawthorne! Your wife and daughter visited that farm personally a few days ago, didn’t they? They saw everything themselves, right? So tell us-are the products from that farm actually useful?!”
At once, every person in the room looked straight at Gabriel.
He cursed inwardly.
He never wanted to get caught between the First and Fifth Military’s fight, but now that Roman called him out directly, he had no way to avoid answering.
He thought carefully for a moment. Under the intense stares from everyone, he chose the safest option- to tell the truth while staying neutral.
“My wife and daughter did visit the Tycoon Farm on Planet A001,” Gabriel said slowly, picking his words carefully. “After returning, they said the environment there was excellent. The fruits and vegetables were top quality, and the taste was far better than anything sold elsewhere. My daughter… liked it very much. She said that after eating there, she felt more relaxed mentally, and her mood improved. As for whether it truly ‘heals’ mental power damage…
He paused, glanced briefly at Trevor’s unreadable expression, then continued, “I’m not an expert, so I can’t give a final answer. But based on my family’s experience, it clearly had a positive effect. As for how the farm operates, from what I know, Ms. Elizabeth manages it independently. It has no direct link to Commander Hewitt’s military duties. My wife booked the visit normally because our daughter liked the place. There was no special arrangement.”
His words confirmed the farm’s products were indeed unusual while also clearing Trevor from direct involvement and defining the farm as a private business.
But that alone was enough.
After hearing that, Oswald and Edgar looked even more shocked.
Gabriel had always been known as calm and dependable. His statements carried weight.
Even his own family had visited the farm, and their feedback included “mental relaxation” and “feeling better.” Those effects were incredibly valuable to anyone suffering from mental power damage.
Oswald took a deep breath, stared straight at Trevor, and asked the most important question. Trevor we’ve worked together for years, so let’s speak plainly, Gabriel was careful with his words, but I understood the meaning. Your daughter-in-law’s farm… Do its products truly have a clear and proven positive effect on mental power damage? Can they even… cure it?”
The conference room became completely silent. Anyone could have heard a needle fall. Everyone

unconsciously slowed their breathing as they waited for Trevor’s reply.
Finduf
Facing the shocked and eager looks of the three commanders, Trevor stayed quiet for a short moment.
He knew that certain truths could no longer stay hidden.
As Elizabeth’s farm grew stronger, the special nature of its products was bound to reach the higher ranks sooner or later.
Roman’s aggressive move had simply forced that moment to arrive sooner.
He slowly nodded, his voice steady and firm. “According to current information and feedback from certain individuals, the specific natural foods produced at Elizabeth’s farm do show a strong and stable positive effect in calming and easing mental power disorders and damage caused by combat, exhaustion, and similar causes. As for the exact process and limits of its use, that is still under observation and review.”
He didn’t directly say the word “heal,” but phrases like “strong and stable positive effect” and “easing damage” were close enough to confirming it.
“What?!”
Even though they had expected something like that, hearing Trevor confirm it himself still made Oswald and Edgar gasp in shock.
Even Roman, who had been furious the entire time, felt his pupils shrink.
It was natural food that could ease mental power damage!
It meant soldiers on the front lines would have much higher survival chances. Elite fighters who were forced to retire because of mental power damage might return to service. It also meant the kingdom’s top combat forces could stay strong or even grow stronger.
That was no longer just farm produce. It had become a rare resource with massive strategic value.
Roman’s expression turned even darker. Since Trevor admitted it, the farm’s refusal to sell to the Fifth Military became an even bigger issue.
That was no longer about pride alone. It directly affected the strength and interests of Fifth Military soldiers.
“Good! What a wonderful ‘positive effect!” Roman forced the words out through clenched teeth. “Commander Hewitt, since you’ve admitted how valuable this resource is, we now need to discuss distribution! Something this important can’t be controlled by your First Military or by your family alone! It must be handled by the military and shared fairly!”
Trevor raised one hand and stopped him, his eyes sharp. “Roman, I’ll say this again clearly. The farm legally belongs to Elizabeth. What happens to its products is her personal decision. The military has no right to take them by force or control distribution. If you want cooperation or supply, you may speak to Elizabeth yourself. But remember one condition-respect the farm owner’s rules and decisions.
“And I won’t allow anyone to use authority or pressure to force her into doing anything against her will. IF that happens, I’ll be the first to oppose it!” He paused, scanning the entire room, his voice filled with authority that no one dared challenge. “This is not today’s agenda. Further discussion will happen later.

Meeting dismissed.”
finished
With that, he gave Roman no chance to argue further. He stood up first, adjusted his uniform, and walked out of the room with calm, steady steps.
Behind him, the room remained filled with people wearing completely different expressions.
