Snow fell thick and fast, soon wrapping Flower Town in a coat of silver. Only the roads remained clear.

The officials organized the idle serfs to continuously clear the snow from the roads, keeping every road throughout the town open and unobstructed.

At the same time, some roads were still under construction. Rocks produced by Blizzard Beasts were continuously smashed into stone blocks and laid flat across the roads. Flower Town's main roads had already been widened enough for four carriages to travel abreast, while the roads between hamlets were wide enough for two carriages side by side.

While other towns generally still had muddy roads, Flower Town had already achieved modernization in transportation.

That was because Lord Liszt, the Viscount, had always kept the slogan "If you want to get rich, build roads first" firmly in mind. If the roads were not smooth, Flower Town's development would always be constrained.

Infrastructure construction certainly burned through vast amounts of money, but it was absolutely like adding wings to a tiger when it came to economic development.

Liszt even had a plan to cooperate with Tulip Castle to build a gravel road from Flower Town to Coral City, further shortening travel time between the two places. However, such a road would cost enormously, and the Count might not agree to it.

At the very least, until Black Horse Island generated a massive economic output and trade between the two places continued to grow, this road would most likely remain unbuilt.

The people of this world did not yet have a concept like "infrastructure" in their minds.

Whether serfs walked on gravel roads or muddy roads, whether they stepped on green grass or excrement and sewage—what difference did it make to the nobles?

Only Liszt would desperately build infrastructure.
