Next day, Beta woke up, is bringing Shirley and Jessica finished eating the breakfast in the dining room, again when with the clear water was washing the food debris of mouth, Blyde walked. 第二天,贝塔醒来,带着雪莉和洁西卡在餐厅中吃完早餐,再用清水洗漱着嘴里的食物残渣时,布莱德走了进来。 He looked at Shirley, then bent the waist, said: The linen that „your excellency of respect, you want we have prepared. Whether you can take the trouble, inspects the quality whether suits your intention.” 他看了一眼雪莉,然后又弯下腰,说道:“尊敬的阁下,你要的麻布我们已经准备好了。你是否可以移驾出来,检查一下质量是否合你心意。” Beta looks to withstand/top a Blyde of pair of dark pouche, nods, then left outside with him. 贝塔看着顶着一对黑眼圈的布莱德,点点头,然后跟着他出到了外面。 On hotel opposite street, is putting 13 donkey carts abreast in row, above is piling the thick brown linen. And has a middle-aged person, saw that Blyde and Beta come out, he moves forward to meet somebody immediately, deeply bent the waist saying: „Your excellency, sees you very much happily. Three kilometers linen that you need, I have shipped, please approve.” 旅馆对面的街上,并排放着13辆驴车,上面堆着厚厚的褐色麻布。其中有个中年人,一见到布莱德和贝塔出来,他立刻迎上去,深深地弯下腰说道:“阁下,很高兴见到你。你需要的三千米麻布,我已经运来了,请你验收。” Beta nods to this man, then before arriving at the donkey cart, randomization test the quality of linen. 贝塔向这男人点头致意,然后走到驴车前,随机检验着麻布的质量。 Carder looks at the Beta movement, swallowing saliva that keeping. Although his quality to own linen is very confident, but this will be related to his shop future survival issue, all hopes were on the body of Beta, it may be said that read the heaven, read the hell. 卡德尔看着贝塔的动作,在不停地的咽口水。虽然他对自家麻布的质量很有信心,可这事关他店铺未来的生存问题,所有的希望都系在了贝塔的身上,可谓是一念天堂,一念地狱。 Beta spot-checked casually, then arrives in front of Carder, asked: „Quality is good, how much money.” 贝塔随便抽查了一下,然后走到卡德尔面前,问道:“质量不错,多少钱。” The huge happy heart is flooding Carder's whole body immediately, he faints replies: „18 gold coins, your excellency, so long as 18 gold coins.” 巨大的幸福感立刻充斥着卡德尔的全身,他晕乎乎地答道:“18枚金币,阁下,只要18枚金币。” Beta is very clear, this price truly was the conscience. He puts out 20 gold coins from the space, puts in Carder's hand, then said: „You help me make 50 scissors again, 100 pintles come, two gold coins that are many, are the funds of these things.” 贝塔很清楚,这价格确实是很良心了。他从空间中拿出20枚金币,放到卡德尔的手里,然后说道:“你再帮我弄50张剪刀,100条细针过来,多出的两枚金币,就是这些东西的款项。” Carder held 20 gold coins, the eye socket is playing, almost painstakingly. If in one day, he was unable the debt, then all will not have, but these 20 gold coins, but also the debt, at least also has been able other about six, with to support the movement of shop, had more than enough to spare. 卡德尔捧着20枚金币,眼圈都戏了,差点苦了出来。如果再过一天,他还不能把欠款还了的话,那么一切都会没有了,而这20枚金币,还完了欠款,至少还能余下六枚左右,用以支撑店铺的动作,绰绰有余了。 „My this makes people help you make the thing.” “我这就让人去帮你把东西弄来。” Beta nods, then said: „Troubles you to continue to wait a while here, after another person comes, you transport the linen to the place that I assign again.” 贝塔点点头,然后说道:“麻烦你们继续在这里等一会,等到另外一个人过来后,你再把麻布运到我指定的地方去。” „Does not have the issue.” Carder makes an effort to nod, 20 gold coins succeed in obtaining, he is now relieved. “没有问题。”卡德尔使劲点点头,20枚金币到手,他现在安心无比。 About after 20 minutes, the young manager of slave market also came, he is also going against a pair of dark pouche, it seems like last night had also been busy for night. 大约20分钟后,奴隶市场的年轻总管也过来了,他也是顶着一双黑眼圈,看来昨晚也是忙了一夜。 „Your excellency, your request we have accomplished, whether now you do plan to have a look at your property in the past?” “阁下,你的要求我们已经办到了,现在你是否打算过去看看你的财产？” Beta nods, then greeted Carder's person, was drawing 13 donkey carts, walked toward the North area enormously and powerful. Shirley and Jessica also planned to follow, but Beta makes them rest in the hotel, because of the following matter, they cannot help. 贝塔点点头,然后招呼卡德尔的人,拉着13辆驴车,浩浩荡荡地往北区走。雪莉和洁西卡本来也打算跟上的,但贝塔却让他们在旅馆中休息,因为接下来的事情,她们帮不上什么忙。 700 many slaves were placed in a city north mountain massif cavity. Has saying that the person truly somewhat ability and wisdom of slave market. Such place not only does not need to spend their money, but also lives is not too cold, does not freeze to death these slaves, will not make them too comfortable. 700多的奴隶被安置在城北的一处山体空洞中。不得不说,奴隶市场的人确实有几分才智。这样的地方不但不用花他们的钱,而且住着也不算太冷,冻不死那些奴隶,却也不会让他们太舒服。 After Beta is bringing here, that young manager then leaves. 将贝塔带着这里后,那位年轻的主管便离开了。 Beta enters in the cavity, looks that this crowd presses together the York Clan slave who warms up, looks at their numb facial expressions, visits them, because for a long time hungrily becomes the wax yellow skin, visits on them again, that tattered, is obstructing the critical part ragged clothes reluctantly, then shows various friendly smiles. 贝塔走进空洞中,看着这群挤在一起取暖的约克族奴隶,看着他们麻木的神情,看着他们因为长时间饥饿而变得蜡黄色的皮肤,再看着他们身上,那破破烂烂,勉强遮着要害部位的破衣服,然后露出各善的微笑。 He is raising the magic copy clerk in hand: „Thinks that you should be clear, now you are my person.” 他扬着手中的魔法文书:“想必你们应该清楚,现在你们已经是我的人了。” Almost all slaves look up Beta, in numb look, not happily not sad. 几乎所有的奴隶都抬头看着贝塔,麻木的眼神中,无喜无悲。 „Now you must listen to my order.” Beta has swept the crowd, then asked: „Before who was your leaders, stood.” “现在你们就得听我的命令。”贝塔扫过人群,然后问道:“以前谁是你们的头领,站出来。” Nobody moves. 没有人动弹。 Beta has smiled under: „You think that the disobedient master is inadequate?” 贝塔笑了下:“你们难道想忤逆主人不成？” Hears this saying, finally had the mature man to stand. His look appears tranquil, is not the tranquility that type brings numbly, but is tranquility in a mind. Generally speaking, such person, usually is not a leader of ethnic group, because of the extremely tranquil person, does not have many desires, such person, is not suitable, will not pursue the authority. 听到这话,终于有个壮年男子站了出来。他的眼神显得平静,不是那种麻木带来的平静,而是一种心灵上的宁静。一般来说,这样的人,通常不会是一个族群的领袖,因为太过平静的人,是没有多少欲求的,这样的人,不适合,也不会去追求权位。 „Here has three kilometers linen.” Beta looks at the young man, then points at the donkey cart saying: „You organize, regardless of everybody, everyone can obtain three meters linen. This is used to make the clothes, then the remaining linen, you looked at the situation to divide again, everyone made two hemp cloth shoes again. Understood? After you complete the matter, told me again, your name. If your this matter cannot handle, did not have the means to appear before me again, I will not record the name of useless slave.” “这里有三千米的麻布。”贝塔看着青壮男子,然后指着驴车说道:“你组织好,无论男女老少,每人可以获得三米的麻布。这是用来做衣服的,然后剩下的麻布,你再看情况分了,每人再做两双麻布鞋。明白了吗？等你把事情做好后,再来告诉我,你的名字。因为如果你连这点事情都办不好,就没有办法再出现在我面前了,我不会去记无用奴隶的名字。” This young man was shocked, he some little time digests the words that Beta spoke: „Lord...... The people, you said, each of us can divide to three meters linen makes the clothes?” 这青壮男子愣住了,他好一会才消化完贝塔所说的话:“主……人,你是说,我们每个人都可以分到三米的麻布来做衣服？” „My words only said.” “我的话只说一遍。” After Beta spoke, left here. He is intentionally so, if because wants to make this group of slaves work for him, he must result to create an image of being impartial in administering rewards and punishments. This and manages Temple to be different, comes the Temple person, is believer, but these are the slave, the slave the community that is easy to explode, wants to use them reasonably, must result in achieves a carrot, a big stick is good. 贝塔说完话后,就离开了这里。他是故意如此,因为要想让这群奴隶为他工作,他就必须得树立起一个赏罚分明的形象。这和管理神殿不同,来神殿的人,都是信徒,而这些是奴隶,奴隶是最容易爆动的群体,想要合理地使用他们,就必须得做到一手胡萝卜,一手大棒才行。 He returns to the hotel, had Jessica to chat a meeting with Shirley, then started to sleep. 他回到旅馆中,和雪莉还有洁西卡聊了一会,便开始睡觉。 Has rested the half of the day, when afternoon time, he went to that cavern again. 休息了半天,等到下午的时候,他再去了那片洞穴。 Inside slaves, almost everybody has worn the new hemp cotton garment. Because there is clothes, they no longer thought coldly, then 3322 dispersing, started to chat. The people know the sense of honor, had clothes to obstruct the body and resisting the cold, numb color in their eyes has disappeared. 里面的奴隶们,几乎人人都穿上了新的麻布衣。因为有了衣服,他们不再觉得冷了,便3322散开,开始聊天。人知廉耻,有了衣服遮身和抗寒,他们眼中的麻木之色去消了许多。 Sees Beta to come, these slaves gathered spontaneously in one. 见到贝塔过来,这些奴隶们自发地就聚在了一起。 The young man who in the morning that stands stands in the forefront. 早上那个站出来的青壮男子站在最前面。 The Beta finger/refers he, said: „Did well, you can say own name now loudly.” 贝塔指指他,说道:“干得不错,现在你可以大声地说出自己的名字了。” „I called Royde.” “我叫罗伊德。” „Is very good.” Beta was commending the opposite party, then also asked: „You come, I have other matters to give you.” “很好。”贝塔称赞着对方,然后又问道:“你过来,我有其它事情要交给你。” Royde arrives at the Beta front. 罗伊德走到贝塔的面前。 This person must be bigger than Beta steadily, the complexion looks that is also very firm and resolute. May person like this, in front of Beta only be able humble/despise Gongqu the knee, he even unable to look straight ahead the eye of Beta truly. Because of his back, has the slave engraved inscription. This is used to control the method of slave. In the engraved inscription has a spirit to suggest magic, will let have the person of this type of engraved inscription, slowly becomes does not dare to oppose with the master. 这人长得要比贝塔高大,脸色看着也很坚毅。可这样的人,在贝塔面前只能卑躬曲膝,他甚至无法真正地直视贝塔的眼睛。因为他的背后,有奴隶铭文。这是用来控制奴隶的手段。铭文中有种精神暗示魔法,会让拥有这种铭文的人,慢慢变得不敢与主人作对。 Naturally, this is only ideal condition. If the hatred in slave heart are too many, light depends on the slave engraved inscription, does not have the means to suppress in the slave heart the evil intention. 当然,这只是理想的状态。如果奴隶心中的仇恨太多,光靠奴隶铭文,是没有办法镇压奴隶心中恶意的。 Beta visits him, puts out 30 gold coins from airborne backpack, said: „Is taking these money, takes several people, goes to the street to buy several car(riage) dry rations to come back. Tomorrow you must with me, leave this city together. Goes to another place, if on the road you have starved to death, may have nothing to do with me, my money are in any case many, at the worst buys a group of slaves again. Right. Should better buy many several spatial donkey carts again, is used to carry these old people.” 贝塔看着他,从空中背包中拿出30枚金币,说道:“拿着这些钱,带上几个人,去街上买几车干粮回来。明天你们就要和我一起出发,离开这座城市。去另外一个地方,如果路上你们饿死了,可与我无关,反正我钱多,大不了再买一批奴隶。对了。最好再买多几辆空驴车,用来载那些老人。” Royde received 30 gold coins, he asked: „Why can be good to us so?” 罗伊德接过30枚金币,他问道:“为什么要对我们这么好？” „Because I must make you help me work.” Beta spoke thoughtlessly to reply: „Tomorrow I can come, naturally you can escape in the evening. So long as runs 100 kilometers far, I do not have the means to want your lives with the magic engraved inscription, therefore you can consider this plan.” “因为我得让你们帮我干活。”贝塔随口答道:“明天我会过来,当然你们晚上可以逃跑。只要跑出100公里远,我就没有办法用魔法铭文要你们的命,所以你们可以考虑一下这个计划。” York Clan all people heard the Beta words, but in any person eyes did not have that to fear hope and mighty waves a little. 约克族所有人都听到贝塔的话了,但任何人眼中没有那怕有一点的希望和波澜。 The Royde forced smile said: „Master you do not crack a joke, if we can run away, already ran away.” 罗伊德苦笑道:“主人你别开玩笑了,如果我们能逃,早就逃了。” „Is the joke, actually you are very clear.” Beta spoke, left. Leaves behind Royde in same place, the expression is unpredictable. “是不是玩笑,其实你心里很清楚。”贝塔说完话,就离开了。留下罗伊德在原地,表情变化莫测。 After crossing some little time, Royde turns around, is shouting to say to own clansman: „Ise, Qiao Ba, your three come out with me. Other people are waiting same place, if some people want to escape, should take advantage of the present. Our new hosts, had allowed you to escape a moment ago actually, but has not stated clearly. But I do not want you such to do, because after the slave exits, still slave, but we actually not necessarily again can run into such good master.” 过了好一会后,罗伊德转身,对着自己的族人大喊道:“艾斯,斯摩克,乔巴,你们三个跟我出来。其它人在原地等着,如果有人想逃跑,最好就趁现在。刚才我们的新主人,其实已经允许你们逃跑了,只是没有明说。但我个人不愿意你们这么做,因为奴隶出去之后,依然还是奴隶,可我们却不一定再能遇到这么好的主人。” At this time, an old person has stood. On him wears brand-new hemp cotton garment, then said: „Royde, I am Village Chief, now this position such being the case is important, then I again continued to take office, you worked as vice- Village Chief.” 这时候,一个老人站了起来。他身上穿着崭新的麻布衣,而后说道:“罗伊德,我原来是村长,现在这个位置既然如此重要,那么我就再继续上任好了,你就当副村长吧。” Royde is actually the ridicule smiles to make noise: „Old fogy, why our York Clan will fall to present this region, with you have directly did not have the relations. Do you also want to make me give back to you position of Village Chief unexpectedly again? Other people, which are casual to be able, when Village Chief, but is only you not to be good. You can look came out, our new hosts is a big good person, is definitely promising with him, I cannot look?” 罗伊德却是讥讽地笑出声来:“老家伙,我们约克族为什么会落到现在这个境地,还不是与你有直接的有关系。你居然还想让我把村长之位再还给你？其它人,随便哪一个都可以当村长,但唯独你不行。你能看得出来了,我们的新主人是个大好人,跟着他肯定有前途,难道我看不出来？” „Royde, you!” This old popularity resulted in the mouth quickly to be crooked. “罗伊德,你！”这老人气得嘴都快歪了。 Royde actually does not leave him, leading three people to leave. 罗伊德却是不离他,带着三个人就离开。 Three people arrive at outside the cavern, they look crowd that on the street comes and goes, the vision is extremely greedy. 三人出到洞穴外,他们看着街上来来往往的人群,目光极是贪婪。 They were closed in the prisoner's cage, the clothes that nearly a half years, let alone have worn result in dirty do not make sense, the thing that eats continually are miserable, every day will be to drink batters, making them not starve to death, will not have many strengths to cause trouble. 他们被关在囚笼中,已经有近半年了,别说穿的衣服脏得不像话,连吃的东西都少得可怜,每天都是喝些面糊,让他们不会饿死,却也没有多少力气闹事。 One of them approaches Royde, asked: „Big brother, is our must escape?” 其中一人靠近罗伊德,问道:“大哥,我们这是要逃跑吗？” „Runs? Where can run up to goes?” Royde looks at this man, gets angry him not to struggle saying: „Our new hosts are demon Mage, the note calculate that does not use the back engraved inscription, he can only look for us with magic, then massacres. We died were unimportant, if implicated other villagers, what to do you did think should?” “跑？能跑到哪里去？”罗伊德看着身边这个男人,怒其不争地说道:“我们的新主人是魔法师,注算不利用背后的铭文,他光用魔法都能把我们找出来,然后杀掉。我们死了不要紧,如果连累到其它村民,你们觉得应该怎么办？” Three people all are speechless. 三人皆是无语。 „I said a moment ago, this is a good master. Therefore we must manage attractively the matter that he explains, strengthens our components in his heart as far as possible. This is our future livelihoods.” “我刚才说了,这是一个好主人。所以我们必须得把他交待的事情办得漂漂亮亮的,尽量在他心中加强我们的份量。这才是我们未来的生存之道。” Royde said that this saying, then sped up walk speed. 罗伊德说完这话,然后便加快了行走的速度。
