„WithoutSiryourhelp, I do not havetoday!”HessClaushurriesto take a stand: „Iam willingyouto servefor the Sir!”
“要是没有大人您的帮助,我也没有今天!”赫斯克劳斯赶紧表态:“我愿意一直为大人您服务!”„, Weare the mutually beneficialcooperation, no onemustserveforwhom.”Sostratusverysimplesaying: „Ifsome dayyouthink that the independent development, without the issue, toldmedirectly. My fatherhad spokena few wordstome, ‚friendare more, pathto be wider.’Ihave kept firmly in mind, andaccording tothiscarries out, will therefore havetoday'sposition. Evenyouwill be independentin the future, Isamewill support, we are still the friends, canhelp the cooperationin the same old waymutually.”
“诶,我们是互利互助,没有谁要为谁服务。”索斯塔图斯很干脆的说道:“如果有一天你想独立发展了,没问题,直接跟我说。我父亲曾经跟我说过一句话,‘朋友越多、道路越宽。’我一直牢记在心,并且按照此执行,所以才会有今天的地位。就算你将来要独立,我一样会支持,我们依然是朋友嘛,照样可以互帮互助。”„Does not dare! Does not dare!”HessClaussaidrepeatedly,actuallybears in mind the Sostratuswords.
“不敢!不敢!”赫斯克劳斯连声说道,却将索斯塔图斯的话记在心里。„Said the proper businesstoyou.” The Sostratussuddenfacial expressionbecomesserious: „Because mypotterynamesoundin the inner cityis very big, Davosyour majestyknew, thereforeheordereda number ofpotteryfromme, 7days ago Iissue your order, is the goods that hewants!

“给你说正事。”索斯塔图斯突然神情变得严肃起来:“正因为我在内城的陶器店名声很大,戴弗斯陛下都知道了,所以他才向我订购了一批陶器,七天前我发给你的那张订单,就是他要的货!你务必要用最好的陶土、最好的陶工、最好的瓶画师,按照我之前提的要求,用最短的时间制造出最精美的陶器,然后送到图里伊来,如果能够让陛下满意……你想一想,我们就有可能成为专门给王室供货的陶器商,到那时整个王国以及王国的盟邦民众肯定都会以拥有我们的陶器为荣!更重要的是,让陛下满意了,我再提起你是佩琉斯人、来自于他的家乡,那他一定会对你另眼相看,你说是不是?!”HessClausopens the mouth, at the scene, hehas not thoughtcompletelybeforehandthatordertooneselfsoimportant, heenoughhad attached great importance, butnowlooks likealsoby farinsufficient, hesaysimmediately: „Iwill hurry back toAthenstomorrow, urges the workers to make the high-quality goods in high-quality goodspersonally!”
赫斯克劳斯张大嘴巴、愣在当场,他完全没有想到之前的那个订单对自己是如此的重要,他已经足够重视了,但现在看来还远远不够,他立刻说道:“我明天就赶回雅典,亲自督促工人们一定要制造出精品中的精品!”Sostratusnods, and comfortsaid: „Youdo not needto worry, the gamestakesonemonthlaterholds, in the timecompletelywith enough time, when the time comes the admission tickets of opening ceremoniesandsomeimportantcompetitionsIbuy, youdo not needto worry, focuses oncompletingthismatter!...... Alsohasthislittle fellow-”索斯塔图斯点点头,并且安慰道:“你也不用担心,运动会要一个月之后才举行,时间上完全来得及,到时候开幕式和一些重要比赛的门票我都买好,你就不用操心啦,集中精力将这件事做好!……哦还有这个小家伙-”SostratuspattedLearyYaaz'shead: „Do not lethimtoss aboutback and forth, keepsmy family, Iwill make one take care ofher!”索斯塔图斯拍了拍利里亚斯的头:“就别让他来回折腾了,就留在我家,我会让人照顾好她的!”„Good!”HessClauscomplieswithout hesitation.
“好!”赫斯克劳斯毫不犹豫的答应下来。LearyYaazraises headto have a look attwo peopleat a loss, considers onlyhim who holds appreciatively the statuenot to know that what happened.
利里亚斯茫然的仰头看看两人,只顾把玩雕像的他还不知道发生什么事。At this time, a youngsterruns over: „Did father, whatmatteryouaskmeto have?”
这时,一位少年跑了过来:“父亲,你叫我来有什么事?”„Just right that youcome.”Sostratusbeckons: „ThisisUncleHessClaus, mypartner.”
“你来的正好。”索斯塔图斯招招手:“这位是赫斯克劳斯叔叔,我的合作伙伴。”„UncleHessClaushello!” The youngsterverypolitego forwardto give regardsimmediately.
“赫斯克劳斯叔叔您好!”少年立刻很有礼貌的上前问好。SimultaneouslySostratusis pointing athisintroduced: „Thisismysecond sonSaussyChris.”
同时索斯塔图斯指着他介绍道:“这是我的二儿子索西克利斯。”HessClausis somewhat awkward, becausehehas not prepared the giftforSzoStarckTos'schildrenspecially.
赫斯克劳斯有些尴尬,因为他没有为索斯塔托斯的孩子们专门准备礼物。Sostratuswill certainly not care aboutthese, hepoints atHessClaus'sson saying: „Thisisyouruncle'ssonLearyYaaz, hemusttreatsome timeat home, youas the youngmaster, mustbe responsible fortaking care ofher, makinghimplayhappilyinThurii, yes?”索斯塔图斯当然不会在意这些,他又指着赫斯克劳斯的儿子说道:“这是你叔叔的儿子利里亚斯,他要在家里待一段时间,你作为小主人,要负责照顾好她,让他在图里伊玩得开心,明白吗?”„Got it, father.”SaussyChriswalksto go forward, quickondrawingLearyYaaz, was running in the inner courtyardtogether.
“明白了,父亲。”索西克利斯走上前,很快就拉着利里亚斯,一起跑进了内院。„Sir, this...... was really troublesomeyou!”HessClaussomewhataffectedsaying.
“大人,这……真是太麻烦您了!”赫斯克劳斯有些感动的说道。„I, have hadthreechildren, child'ssmalltimegets sickdiedveryoptional......”Sostratusto chat the daily family activity: „On the remainingtwosons, the eldest childbyhisbrother-in-law'sinfluence, is not willingto do business, is willingto become a soldier, nowinguarding the Thessalyborderregiment, when a teamofficer( had had an unrestin the borderregiment of Poarea, therefore the military affairssectiondraws the lesson, stipulated: In the borderregiment the platoon commanderabovemilitary officer of platoon commanderandmusthold the postbyregularOfficerTheonia, toguaranteeentireregimenttokingdomabsoluteloyal), 4years ago Igo toThessaly, mainlytovisithim, Hadesblessedfinally, makingmediscoveryou, a veryablemerchant-”
“我呀,有过三个孩子,有一个孩子小的时候得病死了……”索斯塔图斯很随意的聊起了家常:“就剩下两个儿子,老大受他小叔的影响,不愿意经商,愿意当兵,现在在驻守塞萨利的边境军团中当一名队官(在波河地区的边境军团曾经发生过一次骚乱,军务部因此吸取教训,规定:边境军团中分队长及分队长以上的军官都必须由正规的戴奥尼亚军官担任,以保证整个军团对王国的绝对忠诚),四年前我去塞萨利,主要就是为了探望他,结果哈迪斯庇佑,让我发现了你,一个很有能力的商人-”„Sir, youoverpraised.”HessClausis somewhat embarrassed, buthedoes not certainly know,Sostratuswent toThessalyin the past, visits a sonreason, more importantlyopenstrade channel between Thessaly and Theonia, becauseHielosishisbrother-in-law, heworksto havesomeconvenienceinThessaly, bumps intoHessClausthispotterybusinessfortunately, althoughsome of some of histrulyabilities, at that time what Sostratusregarded as importantishisfamily background, becausehewears a colored glazethis person.
“大人,您过奖了。”赫斯克劳斯有些不好意思,但他当然不会知道,索斯塔图斯当年去塞萨利,探望儿子只是其中一个原因,重要的是开辟塞萨利和戴奥尼亚之间的商业渠道,因为希洛斯是他的姐夫,他在塞萨利做事有一些便利,碰上赫斯克劳斯这个陶器商只是凑巧,虽然他确实有一些能力,但当时索斯塔图斯更看重的是他的出身,因为他是佩琉斯人。„......, thereforeIhavewantingto pinonSaussyChris, hopes that hecaninheritmyfamily property...... Sostratusto speakin the future”, leadingHessClausto enter the restaurant in front courtyard, the area of thisrestaurantwas very big, suspendedmanytables, severalpeople that but onlychats.
“……所以我只好把希望寄托在索西克利斯身上,希望他将来能继承我的家业……”索斯塔图斯说着话,带着赫斯克劳斯走进了前院的餐厅,这个餐厅的面积很大,摆了不少的餐桌,但只有聊聊的几人。„Come, Iintroducedtoyou.”Sostratusbe with smile on the facesaying: „Thisisto come fromThessalyHessClaus! ThisfrombeautifulSenia'sYsKallas! ThislovingOwneDasfromnewSparta! Thisisto come fromAkaDiaz of AllianceAntoKidess!......”
“来,我给你们介绍一下。”索斯塔图斯面带笑容的说道:“这位是来自塞萨利的赫斯克劳斯!这位是来自美塞尼亚的伊斯卡拉斯!这位是来自新斯巴达的爱奥尼达斯!这位是来自阿卡狄亚联盟的安多基德斯!……”Waits forSostratusto introduce,4peoplediscoveredamongthemimmediately the common ground: Completelyafter the Greekwarjoins the Theoniaarea and allied country, joins the rookie of hugetrade networkSostratusestablishes, no wonderhad come, immediatelyhas the warm feelings.
等索斯塔图斯介绍完,四个人马上发现了他们之间的共同点:全部来自希腊战争之后加入戴奥尼亚的地区和盟邦,都是加入索斯塔图斯所建立的庞大的商贸网络的新人,难怪这么早就来了,立刻就有了亲切感。
In everyoneshakes handmutuallygave regards, the Sostratustrusted aideservanthurriedlycomes, whispersseveralin the masterear, Sostratussays goodbyeto leaveimmediately, moved toward the front gatewith stride.
就在大家相互握手问好之时,索斯塔图斯的心腹奴仆急匆匆的进来,在主人耳边低语了几句,索斯塔图斯立刻告辞离开,大步走向院门。At this time, hisstewardhas welcomed a buildto become emaciatedandbe in high spirits the old personrespectfully.
这时,他的管家已经恭恭敬敬的迎进来一位体形消瘦、精神矍铄的老人。„SirTios, has not really thought that youare the 1starrivinghonored guest!”Sostratussmiles the entirefatfaceresemblesto blossom: „Welcome, yourarrivalletsmyyou honor my humble home!”
“提奥斯大人,真没想到你是第一个到的贵客!”索斯塔图斯笑得整个胖脸都像开了花似的:“欢迎欢迎,您的到来让我蓬荜生辉啊!”„Merchant, importantis being punctualcode of honor.”Tiosearnestsaying: „Reaching an agreementis the dusktoshould the dusk, a whileanylateeveningshouldbe made to drink as a forfeit!”
“商人嘛,重要的就是要守时守信。”提奥斯认真的说道:“说好是黄昏到就应该黄昏到,一会儿凡是迟到的晚上都应该罚酒!”„Order under SirTios, Iaffirmedcarries out!”Sostratusgrinningsaying: „Nowin the eveningdoes not make the latepersondrinkto fall face down, banquet unable to finish! HoweverSirLahoz, are you should also be made to drink as a forfeit?”
“提奥斯大人下的命令,那我肯定执行啊!”索斯塔图斯笑嘻嘻的说道:“今晚上不让迟到的人喝趴下、宴会就不能结束!不过拉奥斯大人,您是不是也应该被罚酒啊?”„Icome is so early, whycanbe made to drink as a forfeit?”Tiosdoes intentionally the doubts.
“我来这么早,为什么要被罚酒?”提奥斯故作疑惑。„Your sonAksilCoussemarriedPrincessIvy, thisis the hugecelebration!”Sostratusfaceindignantsaying: „Youunexpectedlyquietlyheld the wedding, does not hold the banquetto inviteus to doto celebrate, evenhidesto see the personthese days , because youbecomeyour majestyrelativenow, was aware the positionto be high, looked down upon our group of youngest brothers!”
“你儿子阿克西库斯娶了艾维娅公主,这可是天大的喜事!”索斯塔图斯一脸气愤的说道:“您居然悄悄的把婚礼办了,也不举行宴会邀请我们以作庆祝,甚至这段时间都躲着不出来见人,是不是因为您现在成了陛下的亲戚,自觉得地位高了,就瞧不起我们这群老兄弟了!”„Do not speak irresponsibly! PrevioustimeItalked clearlywithyou, is not I am not willingto celebrate , because lovesPrincessGorneyandPrincessIvydoes not wantto makenoisily the wedding, thereforeisyour majestygivesundermeto instructespecially,makingmedo. I am also very depressed, after theyattend the maritalfestival, hid in the royal palacemansiondirectly, the wedding , on the mound of Kingis held, onlyallowsour familyto come up, mymanyrelativesis still complaining aboutmeby the present!”
“你别乱说啊!上次我就跟你们说清楚了,不是我不愿意庆祝,是因为爱葛妮丝王妃和艾薇娅公主都不想将婚事闹得沸沸扬扬的,所以是陛下特地给我下指示,让我那么做的。我也很郁闷啊,他俩参加完婚姻节之后,就直接躲进了王宫府邸,婚礼在王者之丘上举行的时候,只允许我们一家人上去,到现在我的很多亲戚都还在埋怨我!”„Hahaha......”Sostratusfranksaying with a smile: „Iheard that lovesPrincessGorneyandPrincessIvyloves the quietpersonextremely, canmakesucharrangement is not strange. HoweverPrincessIvyis beautiful, kingdommanyyoungoutstandingwantto marryherfor the wife, finallywasyour sonsucceeded, thisfullyshowed that AksilCoussewas outstanding!”
“哈哈哈……”索斯塔图斯爽朗的笑道:“我听说爱葛妮丝王妃和艾薇娅公主都是极爱清静的人,能做出这样的安排也不奇怪。不过艾薇娅公主美丽贤惠,王国多少年轻俊杰想要娶她为妻,最后是你儿子成功了,这充分证明阿克西库斯非常优秀啊!”In the Tiosheartis very self-satisfied, onmouthactuallymodestsaying: „Is far fromwhatoutstanding, butishits a targetbyUrrows'sgold/metalarrowexactly.

The tonight'sbanquetconsidersourtheseold friendsto celebratetoyou, mustget drunk to go home!”
“行啦,提奥斯大人您就别得意了!今天晚上的宴会就当是我们这些老友给您庆祝,必须喝醉才能回家!”„Ok!” A Tiosverysimplenod: „You must accompanymeto get drunk!”
“行!”提奥斯很干脆的一点头:“不过你也得陪我喝醉!”„Why?”
“为什么?”„Becauseyou have the celebration to celebrate!”Tiosblinks: „Do not think that Ido not know, youryounger brotherDicaeogelatahas becomelegatus!”
“因为你也有喜事要庆祝啊!”提奥斯眨了眨眼睛:“别以为我不知道,你弟弟迪卡奥克拉特已经当上了军团长!”„Thisis any happymatter.”Sostratusthinks otherwise: „Entirekingdomdozenslegatus, myyounger brotheragebecomeslegatus, at all is notanything.”
“这算什么喜事儿。”索斯塔图斯不以为然:“整个王国几十个军团长,我弟弟这个年龄才当上军团长,根本不算什么。”„legatusis notanything, butbecamelegatus of senior statesmanto selectanythingeven.”Tiossaidunhurriedly.
“军团长不算什么,可是当上元老的军团长就算点什么了。”提奥斯不慌不忙地说道。„Hejust nowbecomeslegatus, is impossibleto be voted as the senior statesmanin a short time, hisfronthasmanylegatusto arrange......”Sostratusnot to hold the hope, although the right of senior statesmanhas been not as beforenow, butstillclearexpensive/noble, and has is electing the auxiliaryChengchih Universityfeudal official and electionareachief executive, listens to and appraisallocal officialto report on activities...... and other powers, is the main force of the beginning of every yearkingdomcongressrevisionandformulationlaw, therefore the executive official, armygeneralstillaboutenteringcouncilis hopeful.
“他才刚当上军团长,不可能在短期内被推选为元老,他前面有好多位军团长在排着呢……”索斯塔图斯对此并不抱有希望,虽说如今元老的权利已经大不如前,但是依然清贵,而且还拥有着推选辅政大臣、推选地区行政长官、听取和评价地方官员的述职……等权力,也是每年年初王国大会修改和制定法律的主要力量,因此无论是行政官员、还是军队将领依然对进入元老院充满渴望。Sostratusis saying, suddenlythinks ofanything, lookstofacemysterioussmileTios, askedlow voice: „Whatstraight tip do youhave?”索斯塔图斯正说着,突然想到什么,看向一脸神秘微笑的提奥斯,小声问道:“你是不是有什么内幕消息?”
