„What two were studying recently?” Davos asked with a smile. “两位最近在研究什么？”戴弗斯笑着问道。 „Except for helping council that coined money committee designs the silver coin the mold and tool, we were mainly studying the pulley recently.” Metoticles said truthfully. “除了帮元老院的那个铸币委员会设计银币的模具和工具,我们最近主要在研究滑轮。”门托提克埃尔斯如实说道。 „Pulley?!” Davos hears word, in the heart moves. “滑轮？！”戴弗斯闻言,心中一动。 „Last year, you defeated Crotone, annexed Thurii the time, Archytas did not come Amendolara.” Marticoris is saying carelessly. “去年,你击败克罗托内、吞并图里伊的时候,阿契塔不是来阿门多拉腊了吗。”马提科里斯大大咧咧的说着。 Davos does not care, he nods. 戴弗斯并不在意,他点点头。 „He saw our newly-built waterwheels, is interested, discussed that with us its utilization principle, he also mentioned simultaneously he started to be interested in the mathematical mechanics recently, and starts to study the application of pulley......” Marticoris somewhat embarrassed saying: „Therefore...... I......” he looked at Metoticles: „We started...... to study the pulley......” “他看到了我们新建的水车,非常感兴趣,就和我们讨论起它的运用原理,同时他还提到他最近开始对数学力学感兴趣,并且开始研究滑轮的应用……”马提科里斯有些不好意思的说道:“所以……我……”他看了一眼门托提克埃尔斯:“我们就开始……研究滑轮了……” Davos understood. Do not look at Archytas is the important personage and the mathematical genius Pythagoras school of thought that present these two are only the ordinary disciples, but they have on the learning does not lose in anybody's effort, particularly Marticoris, he has the exuberant energy and extremely strong curiosity and ascertainment desire, now under the life liberal condition, he puts in the entire energy into the research, wants to fight over the weak points and strong points on the learning with Archytas. 戴弗斯明白了。别看阿契塔是毕达哥拉斯学派的重要人物和数学天才,眼前的这两位只是普通的门徒,但在学术上他俩有着不输于任何人的好胜心,尤其是马提科里斯,他有着旺盛的精力和极强的好奇心、探知欲,如今在生活优渥的条件下,他将全部精力都投入到研究中,要在学术上与阿契塔一争短长。 „Research development how?” Davos breaks the Marticoris stutter in a soft voice the words, many science subjects knowledge that although he learns in the school the previous generation gave back to the teacher, but also is insufficient the pulley is anything does not know, this is the physics basis knowledge of junior middle school. “研究进展如何？”戴弗斯轻声打断马提科里斯结结巴巴的话,他虽然将前世在学校学到的不少理科知识还给了老师,但还不至于连滑轮是什么都不知道,这不过是初中的物理基础知识而已。 „We have established the mathematical formula that the pulley has been able to reduce effort, and after multiple verifies its accuracy. Naturally with these numeric characters that you invent, making us save a lot of time and energy. Now we are going a step further experiments many pulley combinations, in order to improve its theory...... by that time, this discovery will certainly change the entire Mediterranean world! You can imagine a person using the pulley to pull up the giant stone alone, more than ten meters high! You can imagine a person to draw a boat using the pulley alone!......” Marticoris mentioned the math, shone on the eyes, dances with joy. “我们已经创立了滑轮之所以能省力的数学公式,并且经过多次验证它的正确性。当然用你所发明的那些数字符号,让我们省了不少的时间和精力。现在我们正在进一步的对多个滑轮组合进行试验,以求完善它的理论……到那时,这一发现必将改变整个地中海世界！你能想象一个人利用滑轮可以独自将巨石拉起,十几米高吗！你能想象一个人利用滑轮可以独自拉动一艘小船吗！……”马提科里斯一说起数学,就双眼放光,手舞足蹈。 Davos has not been startled as they expected, instead saying of smile: „I believe that your research and invention the life of people will bring the huge convenience to the alliance!” 戴弗斯并没有象他俩所预料的那样吃惊,反而微笑的说道:“我相信你们的这一个研究和发明会给联盟民众的生活带来巨大的便利！” Two people to looking at one, is a little depressed. Davos as Hades god family, seems to have seen a development trend prospect of mathematical research, making them stand before him each time, always does not have the superiority feeling of scholar. 两人对看了一眼,有点沮丧。戴弗斯作为哈迪斯的神眷者,似乎早就看到一项数学研究的未来发展前景,让他们每次站在他面前,总是没有学者的优越感。 Marticoris has to complain: „If not you make us help their coined money, our research can also progress is quicker!” 马提科里斯只好埋怨道:“如果不是你让我们帮助他们铸币,我们的研究还能进展得更快一些！” „Isn't coin money proving your abilities to the Pythagoras school of thought?!” Davos said with a smile, initially when he coined money incident delivered to Tritodemos, actually has not considered the disciples of these two Pythagoras schools of thought that the high request that but he set made Tritodemos very awkward, finally was Tritodemos found Davos on own initiative, requested to make Matic Lees they provide the help, because dozens years ago after Pythagoras Crotonians pursued, once in Metapontum stopped over, and was Metapontum designed the exquisite coined money mold, making this in the Magna Graecia not famous Greece city-state money greatly popular, therefore he thinks Marticoris that let the Pythagoras school of thought they helped. “铸造钱币不正是向毕达哥拉斯学派证明你们的能力吗？！”戴弗斯笑道,当初他将铸币一事交予特里托德摩斯之时,其实并没有考虑过这两位毕达哥拉斯学派的门徒,只是他提出的高要求让特里托德摩斯很为难,最后是特里托德摩斯主动找到戴弗斯,要求让马提克里斯他们提供帮助,因为几十年前毕达哥拉斯被克罗托内人驱逐之后,曾在梅塔蓬图姆逗留,并为梅塔蓬图姆设计了精巧的铸币模具,使得这个在大希腊并不出名的希腊城邦的钱币却大受欢迎,所以他才想到了让毕达哥拉斯学派的马提科里斯他们帮忙。 „Compared with that time that Teacher Pythagoras is, in the school of thought the design study to money mold has improved, therefore-” Metoticles just said one modestly, Matic Lees snort/hum: „But the hydraulic punching machine is they do not have, therefore the silver coin of our casting truly compared with them!” “和毕达哥拉斯老师所在的那个时代相比,学派里对钱币模具的设计研究已经更加的完善,所以-”门托提克埃尔斯刚谦虚的说了一句,马提克里斯就哼了一声:“但是水力冲压机却是他们所没有的,因此我们铸造的银币确实比他们强！” Is together such for a long time, Davos also calculates the basic understanding present these two young people. Initially, Pythagoras school of thought most people are not willing to arrive at remote small town Amendolara to come, therefore appointed these two unknown outside nation disciples forcefully, this gave two sensitive Leontium person big attack, under the Davos long-term unintentional guidance, humble two people in the school of thought had gradually departed with initially does not approve the school of thought some ideas, and had a mind with the old teacher and schoolmate contend. 相处这么久,戴弗斯也算基本了解眼前的这两个年轻人。当初,毕达哥拉斯学派大多数人都不愿到偏僻的小城阿门多拉腊来,所以才强行指派了这两个名不见经传的外邦门徒,这给了两位敏感的列奥提尼人一大打击,在戴弗斯长期有意无意的引导下,当初在学派中地位卑微的两个人已经逐渐背离和不认同学派的一些理念,并有心与原来的老师和同学一较高下。 Davos shows a faint smile, puts out a straw paper, said: „Here has a blueprint, above drew up an instrument, involves the utilization of pulley, does not know that you can manufacture?” 戴弗斯微微一笑,拿出一张莎草纸,说道:“我这里有一份图纸,上面绘制了一种器械,就涉及到滑轮的运用,不知道你们能不能制作出来？” „I have a look! I have a look!” Davos finishes speaking, Matic Lees on impatient overtakes from the Davos hand. “我看看！我看看！”戴弗斯话音刚落,马提克里斯就迫不及待的从戴弗斯手中抢了过去。 Metoticles collects, looks at the blueprint, asked: „What did this type of instrument call?” 门托提克埃尔斯凑过去,看着图纸,问道:“这种器械叫什么？” „The Syracuse person is called the crossbow artillery it, it is said can more than ten jin (0.5 kg) stone, project several hundred meters away. Several days ago, the Syracuse person used it to repel the Carthage reinforcements.” Davos seemingly tranquil saying, the innermost feelings are actually not calm. “锡拉库扎人把它叫做弩炮,据说可以将十几斤的石头,射出几百米远。十几天前,锡拉库扎人就用它击退了迦太基的援军。”戴弗斯看似平静的说道,内心其实不平静。 When Aristias the tactical situation of Tia naval battle to the Davos report, he is surprised. The Theonia sling is also at the trial-manufacture stage, but Syracuse crossbow artillery and abdomen bow already the emergence of mass in Tia, and succeeds attacked and sank many Carthage warships, its strength and is not the Theonia coarse sling can compare, obviously disparity of Syracuse and Theonia in military engineering technology. This made Davos feel the pressure, he ordered Aristias immediately: Spares nothing, gains the blueprint of Syracuse crossbow artillery! 当阿里斯提拉斯将摩提亚海战的战况向戴弗斯汇报时,他非常吃惊。戴奥尼亚的投石器还处于试制阶段,而锡拉库扎的弩炮和腹弓已经大批量的出现在摩提亚,并且成功的击沉了不少迦太基战船,其力量和准度都不是戴奥尼亚粗陋的投石器可以相比的,可见锡拉库扎与戴奥尼亚在军事工程技术上的差距。这让戴弗斯感到了压力,他立即命令阿里斯提拉斯:不惜一切代价,获取锡拉库扎弩炮的图纸！ Regarding hating Syracuse Aristias, he wishes certainly for earnestly, after paying a big price, obtained the sketchy image of this Syracuse crossbow artillery. 对于痛恨锡拉库扎的阿里斯提拉斯而言,他当然求之不得,在付出了不小的代价后,才得到了这张锡拉库扎弩炮的粗略图像。 Hears „Syracuse” the name, two lost the mother-state scholar to look similarly earnestly, wished one could to sneak in the blueprint. 听到“锡拉库扎”的名字,两位同样失去母邦的学者看得更加认真了,恨不能钻进图纸里去。 „Metoticles.” At this time, Davos asked: „Previous time I had told you about can attract and recruit your schoolmates to come, to expand the scale of research institute to Theonia, to further promote the mathematical theory and application the matter of research, does not know how to progress?” “门托提克埃尔斯。”这时,戴弗斯问道:“上次我跟你说过的关于可以吸引和招募更多你们的同学到戴奥尼亚来、以扩大研究院的规模、进一步促进数学理论和应用的研究的事,不知道进展得怎么样？” Metoticles some do not abandon puts aside from the blueprint the vision, helpless saying: „Sir archon , since the school of thought launched out after both of us violate the stipulation and public teaching, many schoolmates had cut off with my mail exchange, related the good outside nation schoolmates to listen to me to introduce few in the Theonia good environment, is willing to arrive at Theonia to come.” 门托提克埃尔斯有些不舍的将目光从图纸上移开,无奈的说道:“执政官大人,自从学派大肆谴责我俩违反规定、公开授课后,不少同学已经断绝了与我的书信往来,只有极少数关系好的外邦同学听我介绍了在戴奥尼亚的良好环境,愿意到戴奥尼亚来。” „So long as they are willing to come, the commitment that Theonia offers will cash in! Moreover, they have what need, you can say to me directly, I as far as possible will be satisfied! Theonia will create the environment and condition of the best learn/study, discussion and research for you, although your people are few, I believe that you can also make are as good as that side the Taranto fruitful results!” “只要他们肯来,戴奥尼亚给出的承诺就会兑现！另外,他们还有什么需要,你都可以直接给我说,我会尽量满足！戴奥尼亚会为你们创造最好的学习、讨论、研究的环境和条件,尽管你们人少,我相信你们也能做出不亚于塔兰图姆那边的丰硕成果！” Davos holds nothing back the performance to Institute of Mathematics fully supports, lets Metoticles grateful at the same time, aroused his great ambition, his facial expression grave saying: „We will not disappoint you!” 戴弗斯毫不保留的表现出对数学研究院的全力支持,让门托提克埃尔斯感激的同时,也激起了他的雄心,他神情庄重的说道:“我们不会让你失望的！” „Dispatches the matter that the teacher teaches to the newly-built school, you discussed how?” Davos also asked. “给新建的学校派遣老师授课的事,你们商量的怎么样？”戴弗斯又问道。 „Because originally the manpower are too few, we somewhat hesitate, since now some new schoolmates must come, after I and Marticoris discussed that thinks that you said right, went to school teaching to help us comb itself to know the mathematical theory that the solid foundation knowledge, meanwhile can expand the influence of research institute, perhaps in exchange with student, but can also obtain the new inspiration...... we to be willing to send, but request.” “原本因为人手太少,我们还有些犹豫,现在既然有一些新同学要来,我和马提科里斯商量后,认为你说得对,去学校讲课可以帮助我们梳理自己掌握的数学理论,夯实基础知识,同时还可以扩大研究院的影响力,说不定在与学生的交流中,还能得到新的启发……我们非常愿意派人去,不过有一个要求。” „What requests?” “什么要求？” „If in the school discovered that in mathematical bright student, we hope that can conduct special training to him, in the future joins the research institute.” Metoticles somewhat careful saying, because this is he and Marticoris selfishness, since they have had a falling out with the Pythagoras school of thought of Taranto, they also want to develop oneself academic organization and Pythagoras school of thought contend. “如果在学校里发现在数学方面有才华的学生,我们希望能对他进行特殊的培养,将来加入研究院。”门托提克埃尔斯有些小心的说道,因为这是他和马提科里斯的私心,既然他们已经和塔兰图姆的毕达哥拉斯学派闹翻,他们也想要发展自己的学术团体与毕达哥拉斯学派抗衡。 „This naturally does not have the issue, but you must solicit the agreement of student.” Davos without hesitation agrees, actually he very happy seeing this point, Marticoris and Metoticles they can consider the issue from their benefit, explained them already, in the sentiment acted on leaves the Pythagoras school of thought of Taranto to be getting more and more far. “这当然没问题,不过你要征求学生的同意。”戴弗斯毫不犹豫的表示同意,其实他很高兴的看到这一点,马提科里斯、门托提克埃尔斯他俩能从自身的利益出发去考虑问题,说明他们已经无论是在感情还是行动上都离塔兰图姆的毕达哥拉斯学派越来越远。 „Moreover, prepares to make these project instrument masters in each regiment take on your assistants in usually me to Institute of Mathematics, issue that this can solve your short-handed, can the theory and actual utilization closely links.” “另外,在平时我还准备让各个军团里的那些工程器械师到数学研究院来担当你们的助手,这样既可以解决你们人手不足的问题,也可以将理论和实际运用紧密结合在一起。” „Research institute welcome certainly them to help!” Metoticles may handle matters compared with Marticoris, his tactful saying: „We may not have enough money to come to pay their pay.” “研究院当然欢迎他们来帮忙！”门托提克埃尔斯可比马提科里斯会处事,他委婉的说道:“不过我们可没有足够的钱来付他们的薪酬。” „You will have immediately.” Davos smiles was saying: The levigation that „you design after the test, the efficiency improvement of grinding bread flour several times, can save lots of time and draught animal powers for the people, I have assigned the person to construct the levigation mill in Amendolara, Thurii and Krimisa respectively, rubs one jin (0.5 kg) bread flour the price to be low, but also less than 1/3 Obold, believes after the people have tried, can be willing to use the levigation. According to me and your agreements, the research institute will obtain 20% of instrument application income you invent, I think that will be a big expense, will be controlled by you completely. I hope that you utilize this sum of money well, particularly must give to reward generously to the main inventor, encourages their enthusiasm, only then this will encourage more people to invent a better instrument, your incomes will also come more.” “你们马上就会有了。”戴弗斯微笑着说道:“你们设计的水磨经过测试,将磨制面粉的效率提高了好几倍,可以为民众节省大量的时间和畜力,我已经命人在阿门多拉腊、图里伊、克里米萨分别建造水磨磨坊,磨一斤面粉的价格非常低,还不到三分之一个奥波尔,相信民众试过之后都会愿意使用水磨。根据我与你们的协议,研究院将获得你们发明的器械应用收益的20%,我想那将是一笔不小的费用,将完全由你们支配。我希望你好好的运用这笔钱,尤其是对主要发明者要给予重奖,鼓励他们的积极性,只有这样才会激励更多的人去发明更好的器械,你们的收益也会也来越多。”
