"Hey, what are our statisticians doing? Shouldn't we weigh the wood one by one?"

Not far away, Ander was directing two lumberjacks to pull a rope to measure the length of the bottom edge of the pile, the height and the diameter and circumference of the two ends of each piece of wood.

"You know, I've worked in a logging farm in Duoleng before. It takes a lot of people to do it for several days to count the logging quantity there, and each piece of wood must be carefully measured. Our statisticians ask people to pull a few ropes on each pile of wood to calculate how much wood we cut? Could it be that he is lazy?"

A new lumberjack patted York on the shoulder and spoke his questions.

"Firoke, you just came here and didn't know. Don't look at Ender's health, but his brain is so good. We can't understand his method of calculating wood. Anyway, just know the final quantity.

In the first two quarters, some people also said that Ender's method was unreliable. As a result, the wood was sent to the processing site in Hank Town, and the statisticians there carefully calculated it. What do you know? The numbers on both sides were almost the same! There were twenty people calculating these woods over there, and it took a week to calculate them. There were only one person on Ender, and at most a few more people were asked to help pull the rope and report the number, and it would definitely end in three days."

York explained to the new worker proudly, with a look of honor on his face: "End is the smartest among our people. Not to mention the amount of wood, even Master Trale, the leader of the carpenter in Hank Town, learned from him a tenon structure that could be turned - otherwise, why do you think Master Trale recommends him to be a statistician for the logging farm?"

There is no industry in this world, and naturally there is no large-scale iron smelting factory. Don’t even think about things like iron nails. Iron is much more expensive than wood, so who would be willing to use iron nails to nail wood? Various wooden tools, including carriages, are still dominated by various tenon structures.

Therefore, many wooden tenon structures that Ender saw from another world are the secrets of carpenters in this world. Ender taught a certain rotating structure to the carpenter, which improved the stability of the carriage and the life of the wheels, and then obtained their recommendations and came to the logging farm to work as a statistician.

——————————————

Ender's statistical method is different from others.

In the past, statisticians in logging farms generally calculated the overall logging results based on how many trees were cut, what kind of trees were, and how much they were worth. After removing branches and leaves, they could use the parameters of the trunk length and thickness of the wood to calculate the overall logging results.

This statistical method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also has a large error. Sometimes it can cause various disputes - for example, some have thick trunks, some have thin trunks; some have straight trunks, and some have twisted trunks, so detailed data cannot be counted at all.

And Ender's statistical method is much simpler. He asked the cut down trees to be stacked into wood piles according to the wood classification. Since the wood is cylindrical, a triangular wood pile will naturally form.

Then, Ender only needs to find someone to pull the rope and measure the height and bottom edge width of the triangle wood pile to calculate the number of wood piles, and even the wood density does not need to be known (the traditional weighing method requires knowing the wood density in order to convert the wood weight data into wood volume data.).

The simple method seems to be not that simple - these woods are not very regular cylindrical, with thick bottoms and narrow tips, and there are a lot of gaps in the pile of triangular woods they stack. It is impossible to accurately calculate the number of this pile of wood through the triangle calculation formula.

However, with the support of mathematics knowledge in another world, Ander only needs to introduce calculus, cone calculation formulas and some probability statistical methods into the triangle calculation formula for correction, and he can calculate the portion of a pile of wood quite accurately.

It is also because of this that when Ander counts the number of logs, in addition to the slightly complicated calculation process, the measurement process is quite simple. Just ask two people to pull the rope and report the reading.

This wonderful statistical method is based on the development of mathematical tools to a certain extent. Even if Ander clearly speaks it, no one can understand it in the Baron leader.

———————————————

With the help of several workers, Ander spent three days to measure the quantity of all different kinds of wood, and another half a day to calculate the data clearly, sort it into a table, and hand it over to Mr. Molma, the head of the logging yard.

"Well-I have to say, Ender, you still have such a beautiful job!"

Putting down the wooden board in his hand, Molma looked up and down at Ende who was standing in front of him, and said with satisfaction.

In the first working quarter of this year, Ander was recommended by Mr. Trale, the boss of the carpenter guild in the territory, to serve as the statistician of the logging farm. Murma was actually a little unhappy.

He didn't have any doubts about Ender's statistical level. After all, he knew Tral, and would never recommend an unqualified person to come to the logging farm to smash his signature.

What's more, for such an important position as a statistician, there is a joint guarantee relationship between the recommender and the recommended person.

What he was worried about was that in places like logging fields, it would be difficult for a thin boy to gain a foothold.

Many times, you are not able to start your work smoothly with talent. Co-workers intentionally or unintentionally make trips, hints and threats complicated by intentional or unintentional.

Why did the previous statistician leave? It was because the statistics made some people dissatisfied. As a result, the statistician was beaten to death in the middle of the night. But in the dark, no one knew who beat him, but they only knew that they were attacking him.

Molma is not worried that Ander will be beaten. This kid's father Hollid is the head coach of the town guard in Hank. There are at least 60 to 70% of young people in the logging field. They have learned basic combat skills from Ander's father.

However, this boy may not be able to handle all kinds of relationships well. Don’t find out that it will be ugly if you find it out.

However, Ender quickly used another method to make him look at him with admiration.

The boy first made it easy to carry wood by designing wooden rails and lever cranes, and then designed a saw blade to make cleaning wood a relaxing job.

These designs have made the lumberyards really improve efficiency and work much easier, allowing Ender to gain everyone's respect.

That's not all. He also listed the different wood prices he collected into a table and drew them on the wooden boards, clearly telling the workers what kind of wood is more valuable, and how much difference will the wages he can get by cutting down fir and pomelo trees of the same size.

Most of the workers in the logging farm are illiterate, but they are illiterate just because they are not educated. It does not mean that these people are fools - they are related to their future income, and these people are more concerned about them than anyone else.

Coupled with Ende's in-depth explanation and the lifelike patterns on the wooden boards, the content of these tables is not difficult to understand.

After such simple training, workers can selectively log wood, allowing everyone to spend the same effort and make more money.

Similarly, only those who can accurately identify the value of wood and make more money can become foremans now, rather than just relying on one's strength to become bosses, as before.

Of course, the northerners respect muscles, but their respect for knowledge is still worse than that - they desire whatever they lack, which is an unchanging truth.

By teaching these northern men to distinguish the value of wood, Ander also knew some words, and had a half-teacher relationship with these lumberjacks, and his prestige soon erected in the logging field.

In today's logging farm, if Malma is not there, everything will be decided by Ender.

————————————

"It's winter coming, and the logging farm is about to close. I'm going to report to the Baron. Due to Ender's outstanding work, the logging farm will be rewarded by the Baron this year. I'm going to win some rewards for you, Ender, what kind of reward do you want?"

Molma tapped the table gently, and the more he looked at the young man, he became more and more satisfied.

No matter who you are, you will know that the brain is a good thing more important than muscles.

But unfortunately, Baron Hank has as many muscle-filled men as they want, but not many people with brains are smart.

"Morma Supervisor—"

"Call me Uncle Malma. Holid and I are about two years older than you, and you pissed in my pants when you were young."

"Uncle Molma, if I can, I hope to gain the right to read books in the library." Ende changed his name and said seriously.

In the other world of Liu Tong and Master Xixue, knowledge is something that is within your reach and everyone can obtain it at no cost. Through Liu Tong's eyes, Ande has a rough understanding of that world in just a few years.

However, later Ende discovered that he did not know much about the world he was in - because in this world, it was definitely not a little difficult to obtain knowledge.

However, knowledge from another world cannot be simply moved into this world. If you want to go further, you need to understand the real situation of this world.

"Ha, only a child like Ender, would make such a request. However, I am not sure about this. Books are very valuable things and not everyone can borrow them.

Let me see the opportunity to mention this to the Baron and the Baroness, but I cannot guarantee whether it succeeds. It is best if you go back to Hank Town and find the Scholar of Willy to see if you can ask him to say something for you.

If he had spoken, and with the face of your father Holid and your mother Hannah, I guess the Baroness wouldn't have rejected this request."

Molma was stunned for a moment and suddenly burst into laughter.

Molma was just a polite approach, thinking that Ender would simply give up this request and accept any rewards from the Baron. In fact, this answer can effectively gain the favor of his superiors, but only those who have clarified their goals will make such specific requests.

However, since this child is so motivated, Molma feels that it is necessary to make more good relationships - in any world, those who work hard and make progress are always looked up to by others.

The northerners are not well-known for their knowledge, but the Baroness - Vivian Joseph - is the daughter of a businessman, but she attaches great importance to various books/knowledges.

The Baroness built a large library in the Baron's Castle - why did the library be built in the castle? That's because the value of books is very expensive and may attract bold bandits.

This library is not only in the nearby barons, but also in the city of Bamers.

The scholar Mr. Willy is willing to go to the remote Baron Hank and serve as the lord counselor of Baron Hank Joseph. In addition to providing high salaries here, Baron Hank has this library is also an important reason.

Therefore, if Ander wanted to borrow books from the Baron's library, the Baron's opinion was not the most important, and the Baroness was the most important person.
