The Low-Key Life of a Necromancer

Chapter 404: Urging marriage is an eternal topic

Li got on the carriage again, and this time, Lian and Carton were also in the carriage.

"Sister, we have good horses, why do we have to take this broken car?"

"What do you know? This carriage that transported Li back to the North has a special meaning. You don't understand the emotional value of it at all!"

After Brother Li came back, his sister became more and more difficult to understand. Katon covered his head in pain, thinking that it would be better to marry off such a terrible sister as soon as possible.

Li couldn't understand Carton's feelings, he was just a little surprised that the development of the North was faster than he thought.

Concrete embankments have been built on both sides of the Tam River, and there are buildings of varying heights on both sides of the road.

Originally, the small villages and towns in the north were separated by large tracts of open space, but now when I return, the cities have become connected.

"By the way, I remember there were many girls coming back with Lian, how are they doing?"

Li's arrangement for those poor girls was to let the Frere family support them, and if Carton took a fancy to one of them, he could get her as a wife for free.

Upon learning that Li was the instigator of the incident, Carton immediately became furious and jumped up and grabbed Li's neck.

"Okay, so you arranged all those girls!"

At the beginning, the girls brought back by Lian were indeed raised in the Freyr family's manor, and Carton also felt pity for these poor girls.

However, starting from the second day after they arrived, someone would always sneak into Cotton's bedroom.

Katon asked Himanda to kick the girls out of his bedroom, but Himanda rarely refused the young master's request.

"It is the master's responsibility to carry on the family line. Please rest assured, I have checked them and they are all healthy~"

Whenever Katon thought of Himanda's snickering look, he felt like dying.

In order to avoid dying at a young age among women, Carton had to carefully arrange their lives.

"I enrolled them in the magic academy. Those who didn't want to learn magic were arranged to run businesses, and the rest joined the Freyr family's knights."

After packing them up in batches, Katon's days finally returned to peace, but the peace did not last long.

"Brother Li, let me tell you, among those girls you rescued, more people like you."

"what?"

"All those girls who wanted to marry you are now in my sister's knight order. You're on your own."

Carton patted Li on the shoulder. Li's eyes were wide open, and he couldn't understand why things turned out like this.

Moving quickly along the main road, the vast wheat fields of Windmill River Bay come into view.

A city surrounded by wheat fields and river bends is the destination of Li's return journey.

"Not long after you left, Aunt Rose moved her family to Windmill Bay due to government affairs. Now there are only a few winemaking workshops left over at Gravel Hill."

It was only after listening to the introduction of the Frere brothers and sisters that Li learned that his family had moved here.

Now, the scale of urbanization in Fengchehewan is comparable to half of the royal capital.

Because Windmill River Bay has a detailed plan, this new city is more organized than the royal capital, and exudes a vibrant vitality as a whole.

Carton sat in the front of the carriage, holding the Freyr family crest in his hand, and the carriage was able to pass all the way and drive directly into the inner city castle.

The Black family's castle has now been converted into a town hall, and the small town hall in Starstone Town is its branch here.

As a public official, Carton was able to move freely here. Someone discovered Li and Xiaoli who were following Carton and recognized them as wanted criminals.

But with Katon and Lian leading the way, no one came up to point fingers.

Li and Xiaoli looked around curiously.

The main structure of the castle has not changed, but the rooms originally separated inside have been opened up and reinforced to form semi-open office areas.

Men and women in executive jackets were walking around busily, and if it weren't for the wrong architectural style, Li would have thought he had returned to the service hall on Earth.

"I never thought that you could achieve this level just by writing down some goals!"

The development speed of Beidi has exceeded Li's expectations. Seeing that Beidi did not stop its development when he was away, Li felt happy from the bottom of his heart.

To make the North prosperous and strong is not something that Li can do alone.

The North can now move steadily towards its goal even if it is out of Li's control.

"Brother Li, this is all thanks to you! You don't know that when we encountered problems before, we argued fiercely, and in the end, we only achieved this level by referring to the suggestions you left behind every time!"

Carton really admires Li. He is not in the North, and the distance is so far that there is a delay in delivering letters.

Every development plan that Li sent back always hit the key points of the moment.

This kind of planning ability has not been seen in the kingdom for hundreds of years.

"Aunt Rose's office is upstairs, we..."

As the group reached the floor of the Northland Construction and Planning Bureau, they heard a quarrel coming from the office at the end of the corridor.

Everyone subconsciously held their breath and carefully analyzed the content of the quarrel.

"…Absolutely not, I don't agree! We've already decided that those fields should be left for farmers to cultivate. There's no reason to sell them!"

"Theresa, selling the land to the nobles was a decision made by the Planning Bureau after a meeting. The farmers will also be compensated, which is good for everyone."

"Benefits? Those ruthless nobles will not share benefits with others. They must have bad intentions and even worse plans!"

At the door of the room, Li and his group all pricked up their ears, eavesdropping on what was happening in the office.

Suddenly, the door was opened and Theresa walked out angrily.

Seeing that Li and his group were blocking the door and quietly listening to her quarrel with Rose, Theresa felt very aggrieved and her eyes suddenly turned red.

Without waiting for Li to ask about the situation, Theresa left without looking back, leaving Li standing there in confusion.

"Brother Li, what are you standing there for? Aunt Rose is calling you!"

"Oh! But Theresa..."

"Well, there are so many people who come to the city hall to quarrel, but they are all about trivial matters."

Amid the crowd's booing, Li could only put aside his doubts for the time being.

After being pushed into the office, Li suddenly fell into a warm embrace.

"Oh~ Li, my son, please show me your mother. I miss you so much~"

Li, who was being held in Rose's arms and having his face rubbed, was speechless.

"Li, you've been away for so long. Have you eaten on time? I see you've lost weight. I'll stew some meat for you after get off work!"

Listening to his mother's gentle concern, Li felt as if his IQ was being rubbed on the ground.

"Mom, I'm not a child anymore, can you be serious?"

"Oh? You're not a child anymore? Then why don't you get married? There are so many girls around you, but I haven't seen you take any of them into bed. Listen to mom and marry Lian in a few days. The daughter of the Freyr family is worthy of my son!"

"…mom!"
