The moisture condenses into a uniform white mist on the window glass, like a thin gauze curtain. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 infoThe sound of the cold wind hitting the windows from time to time contrasts sharply with the quiet burning of the fire.

Shujuan sat at a long table in the town hall office, flipping through thick volumes of documents.

The content of the document has nothing to do with education, but the statistics reported by various departments, and she writes them down whenever she has time for everyone to refer to them - this is also one of her main tasks lately, and the Ministry of Education does not have much to deal with. After all, the second round of assessment has only ended, and the next round is estimated to be implemented until next summer.

After working for His Highness Roland for half a year, she found that His Highness had an additional penchant for data, and liked to convert everything into a long list of precise numbers to describe it, and the aspect ratio, year-on-year, and month-on-month ratio were all nouns that were often on the lips, and by now, all the members of the town hall have also been infected with this ethos.

As the population of the town grew, so did the statistics, and His Highness entrusted himself with this task, and laughingly called himself the database of the border town. Although it may sound like a warehouse, His Highness portrays it as particularly important, saying that with the database, it is possible to extrapolate the development of the next year and make economic and military plans. Even in the future, all strategies in the territory will be based on data analysis.

"Lord Scroll," the wooden door of the office was suddenly pushed open, and a woman dressed as an apprentice walked in, she saluted and handed over an application form to the scroll, "Hello, I'm Fuya, Lord Carter from the Department of Justice wants to get information about the fugitives who passed the residency review last week, and Your Excellency the Administrator has approved this application. ”

Due to the limited number of times the branching ability can be used, His Highness has stipulated that complex data must be queried with Barov's consent. As for the individual data, you can ask her for advice at any time.

"Wait a minute," scroll glanced at the signature on the list, and then summoned the Book of Magic, revealing the corresponding contents on the page, "Alright, give this to Mr. Carter." ”

"Thank you, thank you. She carefully picked up the golden book that appeared out of thin air, as if she were hugging an evil beast.

"Don't worry, it won't hurt you. The scroll couldn't help but laugh, and most people would have this expression when they first came into contact with the Book of Magic, "You don't need to give the book back to me, it will disappear after two hours, but according to the rules of secrecy, you are not allowed to give it to anyone other than Carter." ”

"Yes...... My lord. ”

The moment the other party bowed away, and the moment he pushed open the door, he could see the crowd in the hall, and the noisy sound instantly poured into the room, and soon fell silent as the door closed.

It's the weekend, and it's supposed to be a day off, but the town hall is still as busy as ever. Everyone already knew the news that the border town was about to be built, and they worked very hard, and with the overtime pay reward proposed by His Royal Highness the Prince, no one wanted to stay at home at such a time.

The book did not quite understand His Highness's approach, and in her opinion, the work of the town hall was not very onerous, and it did not take much effort to write papers, statistics, and make reports compared to the physically exerting miners and furnace workers, which was the main job of the town hall. As long as His Highness gives an order, everyone will gladly comply, and there is no need to raise the salary on it. For most nobles, his approach was too lenient.

His Royal Highness Roland is not like a real lord, this is the opinion from the bottom of the book, but it is such a person who has led everyone to this point, which has to be said to be a miracle.

She doesn't think so out of respect and trust, but the numbers speak for themselves: the lowest-paid miners, kiln workers and handymen are now paid twice as much as they were a year ago, and new professions, such as steam mill assemblers and acid plant operators, are paid eight times as much as a year, and the numbers are still growing.

Not to mention the changes in the town itself, it would be hard for anyone to believe that the town is the same place now as it was a year ago if they hadn't lived here all the time.

She couldn't imagine what the territory under His Highness's charge would become in the future, but she believed that it would be a path full of hope and surprise.

"Lady Scroll," the wooden door was pushed open again, and this time it was His Royal Highness Roland's personal guard who entered, "Your Highness has something to look for you." ”

......

Back on the third floor of the castle, Shujuan saw His Royal Highness the Prince sorting out the manuscript paper in his hand.

"Do you want me to record these things?" she asked, pulling back her black hair, which had been blown by the cold wind, and retying it back at the back of her head.

"That's right, I used at least half of my brain cells to write this book," the prince rubbed his neck, muttering some words that were difficult for him to understand, "Even if it was the knowledge that was commonly used at the time, I could only make up a rough idea, and some formulas had to be deduced by myself." ”

She ignored the strange words and picked up the manuscript curiously, only to see that the words on the cover were orange like never before, and they were also made up of a string of coined words, which together meant calculus.

After flipping through the pages of the page, she gave up trying to figure out the meaning of the title and concentrated on memorizing it—compared to the equations she had learned, she found that the formulas were not even numbers, they were all strange symbols, like a whole new set of words. It's the kind of thing that only Anna and Tilly are interested in pondering.

"By the way," Roland asked, "what is the current per capita income of the inhabitants?"

"The lowest is ten silver wolves per month, and the highest is forty silver wolves," the scroll replied as he memorized calculus, "but calculating averages requires the Book of Mana, and I've already used this ability today." ”

"It's okay, the day after tomorrow will be the same for me to count the results," Roland waved his hand, "I need to determine the cost of water supply and heating for residential houses according to this value, the collective heating project will officially start in a week, and when it is completed, even if it is a long winter, this place will be as warm as spring." ”

A winterless city that is not afraid of the cold, and this is part of the miracle, she thought, "If there is no other task, I can hand it over to you tomorrow." ”

"Tomorrow...... I'd like you to turn the Book of Magic into a storybook," Roland smiled and shook his head, "as long as Anna hasn't read it." ”

"Storybook?" the scroll was slightly stunned, and then immediately understood, "Tomorrow is Miss Anna's ......." ”

"Awakening Day. The prince nodded.
