第24章白霜城
The tavern of hoar frostcitycorner, a babel of voices, makes noisequarrelsmixed.
白霜城一角的酒馆,人声鼎沸,喧闹吵杂。Herespecificationinhoar frostcity, althoughis not top, but the trafficis hugest.
这里的规格在白霜城中虽然不算顶尖,但人流量却最为庞大。
The rich and powerful people who inthistavern, will never lackgoes down in the world the poor devil, seeksmeetscolorfully, evil person who as well asis pondering over the matter of doing things stealthily.
在这间酒馆里,永远不缺落魄的穷鬼、寻求艳遇的富豪,以及思忖着偷鸡摸狗之事的恶徒。But the place of probablythisgrade of good and bad people mixed up, is often easiestto seekvariousrarerareinformationtreasure troves.
而像是这等鱼龙混杂的地方,往往是最容易寻得各种稀有罕见情报的宝地。In the pastonceinYeChen who underLysleinstructionwas familiar withthisplace, did not pay attention toentrancedrunkardnoisyyelling, walked into the tavernhallquickly, thensatin the corner of barscatters the nextseveralsilver coins, selectedinonecup of shops the most expensiveliquor.
过去曾经在莱尔指示下熟悉这种场所的耶尘,毫不理会门口醉鬼吵闹的叫喊,快步走入酒馆大厅,然后坐在吧台的角落撒下几枚银币,点了一杯店里最昂贵的酒。
The bossshot a look at this guest who covers up the facial features, has not saidanything, directlyliquorfloodtoYeChenin front.
老板瞥了一眼这个遮掩住面容的客人,没多说什么,直接将酒水推到耶尘面前。ButYeChenhas not actually paid attention tothatcup of liquorwater, insteadgrabs the bossroughhand, towardstopper a hoar frostgold coin.
可是耶尘却没有理会那杯酒水,反而抓住老板粗糙的手,往其中塞了一枚白霜金币。„Iwantto inquirepointinformationabout the feudal lord.”
“我想打听点关于领主的信息。”
After YeChenhands over the gold coin, at oncesaysto the bosslow voice.
耶尘交出金币后,旋即向老板小声地说道。
The tavernownerreceived the gold coin, originally the expressionis cheerful, may the object who afterhearingYeChentriesto inquireunexpectedlyis the feudal lords in city, itslookstagnatesimmediately, immediatelygold coin.
酒馆主人接过金币,本来表情还乐呵呵的,可在听到耶尘试图打探的对象居然是城中的领主以后,其神色当即一滞,紧接着就立刻将金币还了回来。„Thismatteryouaskothersto inquire!”
“这种事你找别人打听去吧!”HoweverYeChenactuallydrove back the hand of boss, towardinsidestopperseveralgold coins, deliberatelylowered the voiceto saybright wayone after anothersimultaneously:
不过耶尘却是推回了老板的手,又接连往里面塞了几枚金币,同时刻意压低嗓音说明道:„Relax, Iwantto inquire some ‚ordinary’ the news, will not makeyoufeel embarrassed.”
“放心,我只是想要打听一些十分‘平常’的消息罢了,不会让你为难的。”
The bosslowers the headtakes a look, looksto beginat heartthatfiveglitteringcurrency, the browcannot help butwrinklestightly, resemblesis waging a ferociouspsychologicalstruggle.
老板低头一瞅,望着手心里那五枚金光闪闪的货币,眉头不由得紧皱起来,似是在进行着一番激烈的心理斗争。Finally, afterYeChenhands overfivegold coinsagain, the psychological defense line of bossfinallyis broken through.
最后,当耶尘再次递来五枚金币之后,老板的心理防线终于被攻破了。Hiscomplexionis greedy, the hands and feetholdsintengold coins the pocketdeftlyrapidly, thenturned the headto look atall around.
他脸色贪婪,手脚麻利地将十枚金币迅速揣到兜里,然后转头看了看四周。
After confirmingunmannedmonitor, the bossledin the tavernto hidein the peacefulwarehouseYeChenimmediately.
确认无人监听以后,老板立马将耶尘带到了酒馆内隐蔽安静的仓库中。„Youinquired that ChauvatLusefeudal lordconcrete is to do?”
“你打听肖瓦鲁斯领主具体是想要干什么?”
The bossaskedseriously, althoughaccording to the unwrittencustom of tavern, heshould notinquire that the guestinquired the information the motive, but since the objectwere a feudal lord, thatmatter may be unable to jumble together.
老板语气紧张地问起来,虽说按酒馆的不成文规矩来讲,他不应该询问客人打探情报的动机,但既然对象是领主,那事情可就不能混为一谈了。After allhere, ChauvatLuse is not only the feudal lord in hoar frostcity, is the king in entirehoar frostpersonstate.
毕竟在这里,肖瓦鲁斯不光是白霜城的领主,更是整个白霜人国度的国王。However, YeChendaoalsosawworry of boss, gaveownexplanationby the genialtonehastily.
不过,耶尘倒也看出了老板的担忧,连忙以和善的口吻给出了自己的解释。„Hehe, do not worry,Icome fromoutside the citysomevillage, thistimeenters the hoar frostcity, butwantsto discuss the pilebusinesswith the feudal lordSir”
“呵呵,你别担心,我来自于城外某个村庄,此次进入白霜城,只不过是想和领主大人谈桩生意罢了”„Because ofmefromoutside area, thereforetoodoes not understandChauvatLuse, in the laterdiscussion, is very that difficult the effortacts bashfulto bargain back and forth.”
“因为我是从外地来的,所以不太了解肖瓦鲁斯这个人,以至于在之后的会谈里,很难拿捏讨价还价的力度。”„Since the bossyou are also a merchant, whatmeaningshouldunderstandmy?”
“既然老板你也是商人,应该明白我什么意思了吧?”YeChenleansin the brick wall of warehouse, holds the mind/bosomto smileto explain,among the words and deedsreallydisclosed was actually the experienceddeceitfulmakings of merchantalone.
耶尘倚靠在仓库的砖墙上,抱胸怀笑地解释起来,言行举止之间倒是真的透露出了一股独属于商人的老练奸诈气质。
The bosshad doubtssweptYeChenseveraleyes, althoughthought that side YeChendressing up and merchantdid not build, butholdsnowinhecapturedtengold coins, showedsufficientlyYeChen was very actually rich, thennaturallyalsopossiblyhadwith the feudal lorddiscusses the capital of business.
老板疑惑地扫了耶尘几眼,虽然心里觉得耶尘的装扮与商人不怎么搭边,但如今揣在他兜里的十枚金币,又足以证明耶尘倒是真的很有钱,那么自然也可能有和领主谈生意的资本了。„Sinceisthis, whatyoudo wantto inquirehis?” The bossacceptedYeChen the view, returns to the subject.
“既然是这样,那你又想打听他的什么呢?”老板接受了耶尘的说法,回到正题上。„Unyouhislife experiencebackground, the personality and fortesummarizeonetomeentirely, what kind of, not dangerousissue, yes?”YeChenshrugs the arm, setownrequestsuperficially.
“嗯你就把他的身世背景,性格特点以及过人之处通通给我简述一遍吧,怎么样,一点也不危险的问题,是吧?”耶尘耸了耸肩膀,轻描淡写地提出了自己的要求。
The bossis laughing and playingnods, is shortwith the manpower, eats the personto have one's speech softened, sinceYeChenkenpaystengold coins the prices, thenwantshiswearing one's mouth outskineven, heis still glad.
老板嬉笑地点了点头,拿人手短,吃人嘴软,既然耶尘肯付出十枚金币的价格,那么就算要他说破嘴皮,他也乐意至极。Under the bossassortednarration, YeChenknewmanyinformationimmediately.
在老板杂七杂八的叙述之下,耶尘随即得知了不少信息。ChauvatLuse'sfeudal lordpositioninheritsto comefrompreviousChauvatLu Jiazhu, since throne of hoar frostpersoncivilization, hundredyearshas controlledfor their families.
肖瓦鲁斯的领主位置是从上一任肖瓦鲁家主继承而来的,白霜人文明的宝座,百年以来一直都是为他们这个家族所掌控。Butmentioned the personality of ChauvatLuse, was no differentfrom the hoar frostcityfeudal lord of all previous generationsactually, the samecravingpower, sought after the female sexual attractiveness, the affectiontreasure, overbearingproud. Is a typicalrich and powerful familymasterimage.
而说起肖瓦鲁斯这个人的性格特点,倒是与历代的白霜城领主没什么不同,一样的热衷权力,贪图女色,喜爱财宝,霸道自傲.就是一副典型的豪门老爷形象。„As forhisforte. Shouldbecontrolsto the popular sentimentspeciallywell”
“至于他的过人之处嘛嗯.应该就是对民心控制得特别好吧”„When hoar frostcityunderSirChauvatLuse'srule, public securityreigncompared with the firstseveralfeudal lordswas much better. Althoughnow the situation in cityis also not much, butSirChauvatLusewill give the speechin the citycenterevery several months, itscontenteverywill makeusfeel that onetimerousesandsatisfies.”
“白霜城在肖瓦鲁斯大人的统治下,治安情况要比前几任领主在位时好多了.虽然现在城里的情况也不怎么样,但肖瓦鲁斯大人每隔几个月就会在城中心发表演讲,其内容每一次都会让我们感到振奋与满足。”„Howeverthisalsomade for more than tenyears, the riff raffs in hoar frostcityhave not hadanytogetherrebellionor the rebellion, stubble that this yearis only, madestrangethose facing the death penaltyescape from prisonin this regard, ChauvatLuseactuallybe fiercer than the firstseveralfeudal lords.”
“而这也令得十几年来,白霜城中的底层人民未曾发生过任何一起暴动或叛乱,今年唯一出的茬子,也只是让一个古怪的死刑犯越狱了而已在这一点上,肖瓦鲁斯倒是要比前几任领主厉害不少。”Bossboth handshold the chest, toYeChentells the information that oneselfknow.
老板双手抱胸,将自己所知道的情报向耶尘娓娓道来。„Controlpopular sentiment. Speakinghiseloquenceis very good?”
“控制民心.演讲他口才很好么?”YeChen the eyestransferred the revolutions, immediatelyinquires.
耶尘眼睛转了转,立刻提问道。„Eloquence of SirChauvatLusealsonot necessarilygood. ButIwhenlistening tohimgive the speech, alwaysthought that ChauvatLuse'svoiceis interesting to listen, makingpeoplefeelverycomfortably, perhapsisbecausehehas a reason of goodthroatinborn.”
“肖瓦鲁斯大人的口才也不见得有多好.只不过我在听他发表演讲时,总觉得肖瓦鲁斯的嗓音非常动听,让人感觉十分舒服,或许是因为他天生就有一副好嗓子的原因吧。”Bossflexure the sparsehair, expressed itselfregarding the view of feudal lord.
老板挠了挠稀疏的头发,表达自己对于领主的看法。„Voice”
“嗓音么”YeChen the looksanksinking, laterlooksto the bosscontinuesto ask:
耶尘眼神沉了沉,随后又望向老板继续发问:„ThenIalsowantto know that lastmatter, whatstrangechange did the feudal lordhaveto havefor these years? For examplefrequentlyin the deephome, rarelygoes outto make an appearanceand so on.”
“那么我还想要知道最后一件事,领主这几年有没有发生什么奇怪的变化?比如经常深居家中,很少外出露面之类的.”
After the bosslistens , the facial expressionchanges, the subconsciousnodreplied:
老板听后神情一变,下意识点头应答:„Thistrulyreal. BeforeSirChauvatLuselikedgiving a banquetvery much, once for a whileheld the banquet to show offownfinancial resourceto the people.”
“这确实是真的.以前肖瓦鲁斯大人很喜欢设宴,时不时就举办宴会以向众人显摆自己的财力。”„But, afterseveralyearsgoes outto go huntingprevioustime the return, hehad no interestthisagain, except forattending for severalmonthsincityspoke a time, SirChauvatLuse was rarelybeams with joybefore the peoplestaysinownmansionfrequently, does not know that is busy atanything.”
“可是,在几年前一次外出打猎归来后,他就再也没有这个兴趣了,除了出席几个月一次的城中演讲,肖瓦鲁斯大人便是很少在民众面前露脸经常呆在自己的豪宅里,也不知在忙些什么.”„Iknowalsoonly thenso many, youshouldalsounderstand, people like us, usuallyinsimplydoes not havemany and opportunity of citymaincontact.”
“我知道的也就只有这么多了,你应该也明白,像我们这样的人,平日里根本没多少和城主接触的机会。”YeChenlistens, does not haveto askanythingagain, directlytobosssimplynodexpression of gratitude.
耶尘听罢,也没有再多问什么,直接向老板简单地点头道谢。„Good, thankintroduced,was predestined friendssays goodbye.”
“好的,感谢介绍,有缘再见。”Then, the youngster was the half stepdid not leave the tavernloathsome.
然后,少年便是毫不拖泥带水地快步离开了酒馆。„.”
“.”
The bosslooks at the back that YeChenis going far awaysilent, emergedat heartindistinctlyanxiously.
老板沉默望着耶尘远去的背影,心里隐约涌现出了不安。However, whendoes not reachseveralgold coins that in the pocketcome out after the fingervoluntarily, thisanxioushisjoyfulwas replaced the pastimmediatelyfilled withrapidly.
但是,待到手指不自觉伸向口袋里面多出来的数枚金币之后,这股不安随即被他的满腔欣喜给迅速替换了过去。Onlyissuchseveralsimpleissues, gainedso a greatwealth, todayis reallyownluckyday!
仅是这么几个简单的问题,就赚到了如此一笔巨财,今天实属自己的幸运日呀!
The bosssmilegoes out of the wine cellargracefully, finishedhave not movedthatcup of liquorwaterto return to the caskYeChen the previouspointagainsecretlybut actually, anotherhorizontalcustomer who possiblyentertainscanpresentafterthis.
老板笑脸盈盈地走出酒窖,再是将耶尘先前点了却没动过的那杯酒水偷偷倒回酒桶,以此来招待之后可能会出现的又一名豪横顾客。
