„Cohen, you must remember.” Father's words wind around in the heart, „in this world, no one knows that tomorrow what happened. Your this time constructs the city, does not need to rigidly adhere to the convention, must choose a good place. The scale big point are not related, all have me and your majesty.” “科恩,你要记住。”父亲的话回绕在心头,“在这个世界上,谁也不知道明天会发生什么事。你这次建城,不必拘泥成规,要选一个好地方。规模大点没关系,一切有我和陛下。” „Doesn't need to rigidly adhere to the convention?” “不必拘泥成规？” „Entering may attack! Drawing back may defend!” The father said in a low voice, „all situations must consider!” “进可攻！退可守！”父亲低声说,“一切情况都要考虑到！” „All?” “一切？” „We are at two most fronts of influences, the danger is very big.” The father said that „, moreover present Left Minister is swollen with arrogance, who knows when he won't come on a blade behind us?” “我们是处在两种势力的最前沿,危险很大。”父亲说,“而且现在左相气焰嚣张,谁知道他什么时候不会在我们后面来上一刀？” „I understood!” I said, „you feel relieved!” “我明白了！”我说,“你放心吧！” „You are not clear, when a governor is not such simple, you currently have the title, meets the words that any trouble could not solve......” father to feel my head, „you can lose the round of aristocrat temper to get by under false pretences, or acted shamelessly to be perfunctory also good, young people!” “你不明白,当一个总督可不是这么简单,你现在又是有爵位的,遇到什么麻烦解决不了的话……”父亲摸着我的头,“你可以发发贵族脾气蒙混过关,或者耍耍赖敷衍也行,年轻人嘛！” „Is this good?” I am surprised! “这样都行？”我非常吃惊！ „You think why everyone does want to work as the aristocrat?” “那你以为为什么人人都想当贵族？” „It is not because the aristocrat does have the place night power?” I am smiling, this is comes with the literature. “不是因为贵族有处夜权吗？”我嬉皮笑脸,这是跟文学来的。 „Looks to hit!” The father ridicules, „you dare like this, to look that your mother did not eat you!” “找打！”父亲笑骂,“你敢这样,看你妈不把你吃了！” A month later, I led the guard to live outdoors with the brothers, found such a place. 一个月后,我和着兄弟们带着卫队风餐露宿,找到了这样一个地方。 Everyone stands on a hill top, looks at a present bulk plain. 大家站在一个小山头上,看着眼前的一大块平原。 „boss, were you definitely here?” Herte said. “老大,你肯定是这里了吗？”海尔特说。 „Yes.” I replied him, „the entire fiefdom, here was most appropriate.” “是的。”我回答他,“在整个封地来看,这里是最合适的。” „boss, here is very ordinary!” Moya turns head, „I could not look that has anything to be special.” “老大,这里很普通啊！”莫亚回过头来,“我看不出来有什么特别的。” „Yes.” Marfa said, „boss you us told doesn't reach an agreement well?” “是啊。”玛法说,“老大你跟我们说说好不好？” „We first mentioned from the geographical position.” I hint Jake to open the map, „this place at the dark forests and death seas of , was not a trade route, away the estuary was not very far. The good communications, can develop a commercial city.” “我们先从地理位置说起。”我示意杰克打开地图,“这个地方处在黑暗森林和死亡之海之间,不远就是商路,距出海口也不是很远。交通便利,可以发展成一个商业城市。” „Commercial city?” “商业城市？” „Can make a lot of money!” “就是可以赚很多钱！” „Then, we look from the strategic angle.” Looks nod that the brothers appear to understand but not really understand, I smile bitterly, it seems like should enroll in supplementary lessons enrolling in supplementary lessons to them. “接下来,我们从战略角度看。”看着兄弟们似懂非懂的点着头,我心里苦笑,看来该给他们补习补习了。 „This place is very smooth, but peripheral is actually the hill. The front less than 200 li (0.5 km) are the deserts, behind is the forest and mountain. It can be said that this is the offense and defense all may together good place.” “这块地很平整,但是周边却是丘陵。前方不到两百里就是沙漠,后面是森林和高山。可以说,这是一块攻守皆可的好地方。” „But we not in national boundary.” Jake said, „why can make the preparation on military?” “可是我们又不是在国界上啊。”杰克说,“为什么要做军事上的准备呢？” „Asked well!” I praised Jake, „person did not have the foresight, must have the sorrow near at hand. Although we not in national boundary, but in front of us that several straw bag governors may be not much! I watch the war to record, the enemy had projected on our Holy Capital!” “问得好！”我夸奖杰克,“人无远虑,必有近忧。虽然我们不是在国界上,但是我们前面的那几个草包总督可不怎么样！我看过战争记录,敌人曾经打到过我们的圣都！” „This!” “这样啊！” „Yes! Although here is rear area, but the coastline needs to defend.” I continued, „. Moreover, Left Minister that old codger definitely was not resigned to us to obtain this fiefdom. What method will he with cope with us? We may probably prepare early.” “是的！我们这里虽然是后方,但是还有海岸线需要防守。”我继续说,“而且,左相那个老不死的肯定不甘心我们得到这块封地。他会用什么方法来对付我们？我们可要早做准备。” „boss, you were said that Left Minister did meet...... sends people to attack us?” “老大,你是说左相会……派人来攻打我们？” „This is uncertain, in brief you remember a point be good.” I said, „is not our friends, is our enemies!” “这个不一定,总之你们记住一点就好。”我说,“不是我们的朋友,就是我们的敌人！” „Knew!” “知道了！” „Third.” I then said, „our city must complete a quite big scale, must have the support in agriculture. You look, our plains, are fertile, rivers vertically and horizontally/able to move unhindered. So long as there is an enough farmer, supports a only 500,000 people of city simply is the small gift.” “第三。”我接着说,“我们的城市要建成一个比较大的规模,就必须有农业上的支持。你们看,我们这块平原,土地肥沃,河流纵横。只要有足够的农民,养活一个区区五十万人的城市简直就是小意思。” „500,000? How many people are that?” Moya asked. “五十万？那是多少人啊？”莫亚问。 „Like this to you said that the Holy Capital population is more than 80 is less than 1 million.” “这样对你们说吧,圣都的人口是八十多不到一百万。” „But boss.” Herte said, „we do make so many people to there?” “可是老大。”海尔特说,“我们到那里去弄这么多人？” „Don't worry, we have the alien race brothers, some dark moon/month that side also many refugees.” I smile, look up the sky, „, no matter where . The people, are as numerous as the hairs of an ox, worthless.” “不用担心,我们有异族兄弟,暗月那边还有很多难民。”我笑了笑,抬头看着天空,“不管在什么地方,在什么时间。人,都是多如牛毛,一钱不值的。” „boss.” Herte said, „what you did say? We are not clear!” “老大。”海尔特说,“你说什么？我们不明白啊！” „Herte, you think how many outcastes in this world has? How many slaves?” “海尔特,你想,这个世界上有多少贱民？多少奴隶？” „I am not clear, boss. However definitely has.” “我不清楚,老大。但是肯定有很多。” „If we eat to them, puts on to them, hopes to them.” I look at Herte, „does a 500,000 city install under them?” “如果我们给他们吃,给他们穿,给他们希望。”我看着海尔特,“一个五十万的城市装得下他们吗？” „I...... do not know......!” The Herte eye was about to fall. “我……不知道……啊！”海尔特眼睛都快掉下来了。 „Now does not say these, Herte!” “现在不说这些了,海尔特！” „Yes! boss.” “是！老大。” „You bring one team of guards and my written orders contact the dwarf clan and elf clan. Told Wade and Winslet here all, I needed their help. The dwarves are responsible for the stone material, the elf is responsible for the lumber. Informs vampire clan to be good casually again.” “你带一队卫兵和我的手令去联络矮人族和精灵族。告诉瓦地和温丝丽这里的一切,我需他们的帮助。矮人负责石料,精灵负责木材。随便再通知吸血族就好。” „Good!” “好的！” „Moya! You go to sandman with the wing person clan, same duty. Called the article and Mogadi has the artisan!” “莫亚！你去沙族和翼人族,一样的任务。叫文和莫加迪出工匠！” „Yes! boss.” “是！老大。” „Both of you immediately! For half a month must complete all these, brings back thing that I need!” “你们俩立即出发！半个月必须完成这一切,带回我需要的东西！” „boss, do both of us do?” “老大,那我们俩干什么？” „Marfa, I will give you Dark City rough plan in three days, you treat assist to carry out the initial preparatory work here. Jake and I returns to Holy Capital three days later!” “玛法,我会在三天内把黑暗城的设计草图给你,你待在这里协助进行前期的准备工作。杰克和我在三天后回圣都！” „Do we go back to do? boss?” “我们回去干嘛？老大？” „Asks for money!” “去要钱！” In the following three days, I was innumerable my first city layout. Transfers me to remember that in not many construction knowledge, refer to the urban planning pattern that I know, revisions, relapses. Finally finally stereotypia. 在此后的三天里,我把自己的第一个城市设计了无数次。调动我记忆里不多的建筑知识,参考我所知的城市规划模式,一次次修改,一次次反复。最后终于定型。 Dark City in blueprint, vertically and horizontally/able to move unhindered ten li (0.5 km). In the city divides four parts with two main roads, each part divides certain communities with the road again. Draining water, the health, provides, defense......, so long as I think that manifested in this city layout. 图纸上的黑暗城,纵横十里。城市中以两条大道划分成四个部分,每部分再用干道划分成若干小区。排水,卫生,给养,防卫……只要我想到的,都在这个城市设计中体现出来了。 In comparison, the city wall was quite good to design. With one stroke of the pen, one high one short, double-decked, the city walls of four city gates appeared. 相比之下,城墙就比较好设计了。大笔一挥,一高一矮,双层,四个城门的城墙就出现了。 Gave Marfa to illustrate the blueprint in detail one all day, thought that my design average person was not very clear. Without the means that also wrote dozens explanation writing beyond the blueprint. Gave the detailed explanation to each design of blueprint. Also was delayed for day, it seems like later works also to my advanced thought and others' receptivity calculates. 把图纸交给玛法并详细解说了一整天,才觉得我的设计一般人可不是很明白。没办法,又在图纸外写了几十张说明文字。对图纸的每一项设计都做了详细的解释。又被耽误了一天,看来以后做事也要把我超前的思维和别人的接受程度计算进去。 I and Jake am riding a horse to dash on going to the Holy Capital road, the following guard closely follows, this is the father furnishes me to use. Even some people visit me to grow up. For example...... Uncle Miser. 我和杰克骑着马飞奔在前往圣都的路上,后面的卫队紧紧跟着,这是父亲调给我使用的。甚至其中有些人还是看着我长大的。比如说……麦泽大叔。 „boss.” Jake said in the side, „we why so anxious?” “老大。”杰克在身边说,“我们为什么这么急啊？” „I must catch up the father returns the dark moon/month ago rushes!” My does not return, „has the father to help, we can make some money!” “我要赶在老爸回暗月前赶到！”我头也不回,“有老爸帮忙,我们可以多搞一些钱！” No longer spoke. Day after day, nonstop. When sees Holy Capital again, the group's over the face floating dust in sunset glow, compared with refugee very many. 不再说话。日复一日,马不停蹄。再次看到圣都时,一行人在晚霞中满面浮尘,比难民好不了多少。 To me, the Holy Capital city gate is familiar with and has the warm feelings. However now stands my mood under city gate may be not much, because...... my was blocked. 对我来说,圣都的城门是熟悉而又带有亲切感的。但是现在站在城门下的我心情可不怎么样,因为……我被人挡住了。 Blocks my is the infantry team leader, the self-sensation good appearance, shiny that infantry light armor scratches. The hand is grasping the sword hilt that hangs in the waist the long sword, said to us. 挡住我的是个步兵队长,自我感觉良好的样子,一身步兵轻甲擦的铮亮。手握着挂在腰中长剑的剑柄,对我们说。 „City gate must be closed immediately! Do not enter!” “城门马上就要关闭了！不得进入！” „Immediately must close, that is also not related! Why doesn't make us enter?” Has all the way troublesome acts to negotiate by Uncle Miser. “马上就要关,那就是还没有关！为什么不让我们进？”一路上有麻烦都是由麦泽大叔出面交涉。 „You take the weapon! I said that cannot enter cannot enter!” “你们拿着武器！我说不可以进就不可以进！” „We are the guards of Governor Dark City! Governor here! Allow us to enter!” Uncle Miser argued strongly based on reason. “我们是黑暗城总督的卫队！总督就在这里！让我们进入！”麦泽大叔据理力争。 „I said that you cannot enter! Even if the dark moon/month governor comes not to let!” “我说了,你们不可以进入！就是暗月总督来了也不让进！” Has been making people very exhausted including several days of making a long journey, was worried that the father returns ahead of time the dark moon/month, the mood is not very good. Standing that a young infantry team leader puts on despicable airs in addition again in the front, the air/Qi does not hit one. 连着几天的长途旅行已经让人很疲惫,又担心父亲提前回到暗月,心情本来就不是很好。再加上一个小小的步兵队长人模狗样的站在面前,气就不打一处来。 I urge the horse vanguard, arrives at Uncle Miser's side, is taking a look at this infantry team leader carefully. 我催马前行,来到麦泽大叔的身边,仔细打量着这个步兵队长。 „Governor, sorry.” Uncle Miser said to me, „the Holy Capital garrison force is this appearance.” “总督阁下,对不起。”麦泽大叔对我说,“圣都的卫戍部队是这个样子的。” „Does not need to apologize, Uncle Miser.” I smile, „this is not your responsibility.” “不用道歉,麦泽大叔。”我笑笑说,“这不是你的责任。” „I am Cohen Kheda! The status of my present by governor and viscount orders you to make us pass.” I said to the infantry team leader. “我是科恩・凯达！我现在以总督和子爵的身份命令你让我们通过。”我对步兵队长说。 „Sorry! Your excellency.” This fading person looked at one saying that „oneself only obeyed the city garrison section with the order of Ministry of War.” “对不起了！阁下。”这衰人看了一眼说,“本人只听从城防部和兵部的命令。” „Governor.” Uncle Miser collected to say to me low voice, „city garrison section with Ministry of War was the person of Left Minister faction.” “总督阁下。”麦泽大叔凑过来对我小声说,“城防部和兵部都是左相派系的人。” I nod, it seems like today this matter is not quite good to solve. 我点了点头,看来今天这事不太好解决了。 More and more big quarrel sound alarmed the increasing number of people to surround. Had the pedestrian of passing by, had the resident in city, even the guards in top of the head city wall poked head to come to see. Does an infantry team leader face self-satisfied...... block an aristocrat governor as team leader certainly is the matter that is worth showing off very much? However to me, declined a visitor's call by a young team leader, I may not be wonderful in the Holy Capital reputation...... 越来越大的争吵声惊动了越来越多的人围观。有路过的行人,有城里的居民,连头顶城墙上的卫兵都探出头来看。步兵队长一脸得意……以一个队长的身份挡住一个贵族总督一定是件很值得夸耀的事情吧？但是对我而言,被一个小小的队长挡了驾,我在圣都的名声可就不大妙了…… „Don't you really let? Decided?” I to hit the meaningful glance that a preparation began, „we have the urgent business.” “你真的不让？决定好了？”我向手下打了个准备动手的眼色,“我们可是有紧急公务。” „Your excellency urgent business will say tomorrow again!” “阁下的紧急公务明天再说吧！” Hears these words, never imagined, the leather whip in my hand pulls out on his face...... 听到这句话,想都没想,我手中的皮鞭就抽在他脸上…… "Ah! ” Fading person both hands hold the face, calls out loudly. “啊！”衰人双手捧着脸,大声嚎叫。 „Walks!” I order, more than 20 horses broke through the city gate, stood the defending soldier in city gate channel may suffer many whips. “走！”我一声令下,二十多匹马冲过了城门,站在城门通道里的守兵可挨了不少鞭子。 „Holds them! Issues the warning quickly!” Some people yell like this. “抓住他们！快发警报！”有人这样喊叫。 I only then progress to stop, a warning round has the foreign invasion, this matter may even noisy big...... 我只有策马停下,警报一发就是有外敌入侵,这事可就算闹大了……
