The Witcher: Start with the Lord Marrying a Wife

Quarry in Frostwolf Ridge.

Due to the decline of the Frostwolf family, this quarry has long been abandoned.

Today, this quarry welcomes a new owner, a witch.

Hill is wearing a simple linen dress and looks like an ordinary civilian. No one would associate her with a witch.

Coupled with conscious disguise, not to mention that those who know Hill have been secretly solved, even if they stand in front of them, they may not recognize her.

"Miss Hill, I will have to work hard next." Lena said.

After the last unspoken rule, she finally got the lord's consent and started a large-scale infrastructure activity in Frostwolf Ridge to build a Frostwolf City.

"Leave it to me, Sister Lena." Hill smiled.

Sister.

Lena's heart moved, and her face nodded calmly.

Then she turned around and looked in the direction of the castle.

Hill had come to the quarry wall at this time and began to activate her ability. She saw her press one hand on the rock wall, and the rock wall immediately began to crack.

The elements of the earth continued to gather and wrap the rock wall. Soon, cracks began to appear on the entire rock wall, and then it suddenly broke.

This effect and efficiency are more efficient than the high-tech tools in David's previous life. After David learned about it later, he also showed a surprised expression.

Sure enough.

Wizards are the primary productive force in this world.

After Hill destroyed the rock wall, he began to control his power to break the broken stones into relatively flat stones, which are enough to build the city wall.

Hill himself is a stonemason, and his control over this is still very strong.

Then, regular stones appeared.

The stones that originally required hundreds of stonemasons to spend a long time to trim were successfully made by Hill's power in a short time.

It can be seen that Hill has practiced a lot in his daily life, and this skill is also Hill's way of exercising his own abilities.

Although the power of the witch comes from the blood of the wizard's ancestors, as long as it is constantly trained and developed, it is possible to further stimulate the power in the blood.

After all the stones were trimmed, refugees immediately pushed the wooden cart to transport the stones away. Although it was hard work, the refugees were full of smiles.

As long as they worked, they would get paid, which was definitely no less than a reward for these refugees.

On the other side of the construction site, there were also militiamen and refugees digging trenches.

The main force was naturally these militiamen. Some of them had been trained and dug trenches very quickly, and deep trenches appeared at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Of course, if Hill was asked to do it, it would probably take less than a few days to dig it out completely, but it would be too conspicuous.

The quarry was secretly blocked, and others only thought that there were a large number of quarry workers and stonemasons inside, so it was too difficult to block it from the outside.

When the knight attendants of the Frostwolf Knights also joined in, they directly lifted the trimmed stones and started to build the city wall.

Soon, a small section of the wall will be built, 20 feet high and 10 feet wide, which is the standard height of the northern fortress wall, and can even withstand the attack of the sky knight.

At night, Hill will come to check the construction of the wall in person, and use his ability to further squeeze and reinforce the wall.

Although she can't change the shape of the stone at will, through the squeezing of the earth element ability, the stone and the stone can be more tightly integrated together.

Looking at the wall built in front of her, Hill showed a proud expression on her face, and when she looked in the direction of the Frostwolf Castle, she showed a grateful look.

The wizard not only gave her life, but also gave her dreams.

She will definitely help the wizard to build this city well, making it a pearl on this continent, standing forever.

...

Frostwolf Ridge, City Hall.

"My Lord Duke, the cost of recruiting craftsmen and handymen recently is quite high." Reina took a stack of parchment and reported the recent financial situation to David.

Although Frostwolf Ridge had the previous taxes and ransoms, plus the taxes from the vassal families every year, the income of Frostwolf Ridge was still scarce.

David took it and looked at it, and suddenly his eyes lit up. At the top was a map with several circles on it, indicating the words of various minerals.

"Did Hill find those mines?"

Frostwolf Ridge is the ancestral land of the Frostwolf family and has not been developed.

Although David guessed that there might be mines among the mountains, he did not expect that there were so many mines that it could be called a treasure land.

And it was Hill who discovered these mines. As an earth witch, she could not only control the elements of the earth, but also explore the underground very well.

In a short period of time, the earth witch exerted her farming attributes to the limit, confirming David's words that wizards were the primary productive force.

Wizards can indeed promote the rapid development of the territory by their own efforts.

When the mines are fully developed, the town can also extend many other industries-such as blacksmith shops.

Of course, he looked down on these mundane weapons. If he could find an alchemist, he might be able to make the extraordinary weapons he was interested in.

In addition, the opening of trade routes was necessary. These ores were hard currency no matter where they were, and could bring endless wealth to Frostwolf Ridge.

While David was staring at the list and thinking, Lena was also watching him.

After this period of understanding, she was surprised to find that the Duke of Frost Wolf's perspective on things was completely different from that of other nobles in this world.

It can be seen from the fact that the Duke was willing to use his wealth to build the territory instead of hiding it in the vault as his own collection.

And those refugees.

No lord would treat these refugees as human beings.

Even less would any lord be willing to pay to recruit these refugees and let them work in lieu of relief.

Those lords would only forcibly recruit and use weapons and whips to squeeze the value of these refugees.

These actions of the Duke seemed stupid in the eyes of other nobles, but Reina could keenly sense the mystery contained in them.

From the support of those refugees for the lord, it can be seen how high David's status was in the eyes of Frost Wolf Ridge and those refugees.

During this period of time, there were more and more refugees and civilians coming to Frost Wolf Ridge to settle down, which was also an invisible wealth for a territory.

"He has the potential to be a king."

Reina thought to herself in her heart, this was undoubtedly the most attractive to her, and she was deeply fascinated by it.

"Why, you want it again?" David looked over with a half-smile.

Reina came back to her senses, her eyes showing shyness but determination, and she took the initiative to sit in the Duke's arms.
