บท 166: Chapter XXXII: The Vengeful Witch [5]

"It is a prudent choice moving forward," the Interim Duke of Regalia said with utmost certainty. "I believe the first step to revitalizing the Duchy's economy should be taken with the construction of roads branching from the existing trade routes. Not just dirt paths, but paved ones with gravel and cobblestones. I want them to cover strategic points and villages with economic potential. If such venture would allow these settlements to develop, the Duchy's tax base will grow exponentially. I will leave the layout to the engineers' discretion, and our new Lord Treasurer, Lernard, the villages that would encompass the infrastructures to be built. I will also count in you to secure the funding."
