„Company......”Rolandsaidin a low voice.
“公司……”罗兰低声道。„What?”Victoris startledslightly, „where, ifyou to doubtdifferent, Icanexplain--again”
“什么?”维克多微微一怔,“如果您对哪里有疑异的话,我可以再解释一遍——”„Does not use,”hebeckons with the hand, „thistrulyis an interestingplan, at leastdoes not seemanyissue. Ifimplements, yourhow longcanprepareto arrive the fund?”
“不用了,”他摆摆手,“这确实是个有趣的计划,至少看上去没什么问题。若要实施的话,你多久能将资金准备到位?”In the Victoreyeshone the happy expressionimmediately, „Iknow that youcan certainlyunderstandits--pleaseIam disrespectful, Your Majesty, ifyou were also a merchant, achievementabsolutelynotunderanybigchamber of commerce!”维克多眼中顿时亮起了喜色,“我就知道您一定能理解它——请恕我失礼,陛下,假如您也是一名商人的话,成就绝对不会在任何大商会之下!”Thisanalogyseemed likelowered the Kingstatus, butput inoneselfto excel at the profession the opposite partymostpeak, wasin the nobleetiquetteexpresseshighly the way of approval, onbeing considered aswasnot covering upflatters.
这种比喻看似拉低了国王的身份,不过将对方置于自己擅长行业的最顶端,是贵族礼仪中表达高度认可的方式,也算得上是一种不加掩饰的奉承了。This momentRolandat heartactuallycompletelyis another idea: Isn't this large-scaleindustrial corporation of later generation?
此刻罗兰心里却完全是另一种想法:这不就是后世的大型实业公司么?Has the technologyto settle downandrecruit the manpower, the organizationproduction and marketing and independentprofit and lossspontaneously...... Hehas not thought that will hear the socompleteconceptionin a present agepopulation. Lies in the chamber of commercebiggestdifference, thisplanwill produce and salemergesone, simplycould be said as the embryonic form of modernprivate enterprise.
带着技术落户、自发招募人手、组织生产和营销、自主盈亏……他没想到会在一名当代人口中听到如此完整的构想。和商会最大的区别在于,该计划将生产和销售合并到了一起,简直可以说是近代民营企业的雏形了。Thisperhapsis an extremely goodturning point.
这或许是一个极好的契机。In the recentfouryears, histerritorygained the considerabledevelopment, butalsograduallyexposeleftdeficiency--thatis the administrativehall has almost then taken care ofall. Anyprojectneeds the administrative departmentto comecontrolling, from the complementto the appropriationbudget, thesenumerous and diverseworkregulationshas taken the officialsmajority oftime. Along with the unceasingexpansion of projectscale, will make the organizationeven moreextremely fatinevitably, the administrative efficiency can also withitreduction.
近四年时间里,他的领地获得了长足的发展,但也渐渐暴露出了不足之处——那便是行政厅几乎包办了一切。任何项目都需要行政部门来把控,从编制人数到调拨预算,这些繁杂的工作章程占用了官员们大部分时间。随着项目规模的不断扩大,势必会令机构愈发臃肿,行政效率也会随之降低。Thiscanbe considered asis„state-owned enterprise”common failing--profitandloss, oncehas nothing to dowith the participant, stablythenhas becomeall. Ithasdoes not count the repaymentandbyupper-levelwilldecision the merit, canmeet the needin the early timefast, later can also be usedto attack and capturetheserisklargestrategic projects, butdoes not representitto be omnipotent.
这可以算得上是“国企”的通病——盈利和亏损一旦跟参与者无关,稳定便成了一切。它有着不计回报、受上层意志决定的优点,在早期可以快速满足需求,后期也能用于攻克那些风险颇大的战略项目,但并不代表它无所不能。This is also Rolandmakes utmost efforts to developinNeverwinter City the heavy industry and agriculture,--light industryactuallyreallyfewconsiderationreasonsbesides the working populationlimited, the administrativehallcould not put outthat manyofficialsto deal with the industrialtypemagnified.
这也是罗兰在无冬城全力发展重工业与农业,轻工业却甚少顾及的原因之一——除了劳动人口有限以外,行政厅已拿不出那么多官员来应对产业种类的扩大化了。After allissues the orderto be simple, butis the matter of a few words, mayprobablyimplement, even ifestablishes a Steam engineassembly plant, the backneedsone set ofmanpowerto support.
毕竟下达命令简单,不过是一句话的事情,可真要实施下去,哪怕是多建立一个蒸汽机组装厂,背后都需要一整套人手来支持。Butnow, hehad the new choice.
而现在,他有了新选择。Attracting investmentsand so on methodhas not put forth, somepeopleon own initiativehave delivered to front ofhim, truth that Rolandnaturallyeasilyhas not rejected.
招商引资之类的手段还没使出,就有人主动送到了他面前,罗兰自然没有轻易拒绝的道理。Althoughthis„company”has the background of foreignaristocratic family, after the profit, definitelywill createcertaingold royaloutflow, so long asitsproduction departmentinGreycastle, thisinsufficient were notanything.
虽然这家“公司”有着境外世家的背景,盈利后必然会造成一定的金龙外流,但只要它的生产部门都在灰堡境内,这点不足便算不上什么了。
After reaching the preliminaryintention, Rolandhas delivered to the castleentranceVictorpersonally, „after youpreparedto be appropriate, Ithink that the newcottonseedshouldalsobe ableto cultivate. Howevera littleImustexplainbeforehand, iflaterhasothermerchantsto planto imitateyou, the administrativehallwill also sell to the commodity in their--marketto be richer the seedby the similarprice, the pricewill be more materially beneficial, thistruthyoushouldbe clearer than me.”
达成初步意向后,罗兰亲自将维克多送到了城堡门口,“等你准备妥当后,我想新的棉花种子应该也能培育出来了。不过有一点我得事先说明,如果以后有其他商人打算效仿你的话,行政厅也会以同样的价格将种子卖给他们——市场上的商品越丰富,价格就会越实惠,这个道理你应该比我更清楚。”„Naturally, Your Majesty,”in the Victoreyereveals the self-confidentappearance, „the Dawnmerchantneverdreads the competition. My fatheralwayssaid,fromuslivingsince that moment , the competitionstarted.”
“当然,陛下,”维克多眼中流露出自信的神采,“晨曦商人从来不畏惧竞争。我的父亲总是说,从我们生下来的那一刻起,竞争就已经开始了。”Whenhepreparesto ask to be excused, Rolandalsostopped by calling outhimsuddenly, „was right, Ialsowantto ask your question. Myministerlooks up, youthenhavesixyears ago to the record that Longsong Strongholdpays taxes, why? At that timeifwantedto savethisamount, toyoushouldbe the easymatter?”
当他准备告退时,罗兰忽然又叫住了他,“对了,我还想问你一个问题。我的大臣查到,你在六年前便有向长歌要塞缴税的记录,为什么?那个时候若是想要省下这笔金额,对你来说应该是轻而易举之事吧?”Victornodded, „, butthenfeudal lordgranted, so long aspaid taxesin proper amount, hetocommunicatein the caravan between border regionandLongsongprovidescertainconvenience and protection. Heindeedhas also made--at that time, thisexpenditureat leastcanavoid the threat of wild animal, puzzle that as well as the colleagueattacks. Ialwaysthought,payssomeprices, obtains a stableandorderedrule, to the merchant is actually a good deed. It is a pity that many peopleratherthrow the bigwealthto the cargo that onis not worthwhile, is not willingto regard as one of the costs the rule.”维克多点了点头,“但当时的领主允诺,只要按量缴税,他就会为来往于边陲与长歌间的商队提供一定的便利和保护。他也的确那么做了——在那个时候,这笔花费至少可以免除野兽的威胁,以及同行袭击的困扰。我始终觉得,付出些许代价,来获得一个稳定而有序的规则,对商人来说其实是件好事。遗憾的是,有很多人宁愿将大笔钱财投到不值当的货物上,也不愿意将规则视作成本之一。”Reallyis an interestingperson, looks the back that the merchantis departing, in the Rolandheartmused. Hassuchpersonto makemodel the words, Greycastle's„private enterprise”shouldalsowelcome a fastandyouthfulperiod of expansion.
果然是个有趣的人,望着商人离去的背影,罗兰心中不禁暗想。有这样的人来做范例的话,灰堡的“民营企业”应该也会迎来一个快速且充满朝气的发展期吧。
When heplansto return to the office, the Nightingaleanxioussoundhas made suddenly a soundinhisear, „Your Majesty, Lightningcame back, sheas ifmethas troubled--”
就在他打算回办公室时,夜莺焦急的声音忽然在他耳边响了起来,“陛下,闪电回来了,她似乎遇到了麻烦——”„Whatsituation?”Rolandis busy atasking.
“什么情况?”罗兰忙问道。„Also not clear...... Ijustreceived the pass on message of Silvie, after she Macybeltcomes back, directlyhas sent toMedical Institute!”
“还不清楚……我刚接到希尔维的传讯,她被麦茜带回来后,直接送去了医疗院!”Hisheartsinksimmediately, „was sheinjured? Nowleadsmeto have a lookin the past!”
他的心顿时一沉,“她受伤了?现在就带我过去看看!”„Yes,”Nightingaleputs out a handto holdhim, thentwo peopletogetherescaped into the dense fog.
“是,”夜莺伸手抓住他,接着两人一起遁入了迷雾之中。
......
……
After rushing towest sidecityMedical Institute, Rolandsawhas lain down the little girlonhospital bed.
赶到城市西边的医疗院后,罗兰见到了躺在病床上的小姑娘。Shoves open the instance of door, worry in hisheartwas then cancelledmany--Lightningseemedperfect, on the facedid not have the obviousscaror the bloodstain, the chestwas fluctuating, thismeans that shewill not haveanythingto obstructgreatly. Even ifthisdetectionhas encountered the danger, nowwas also safe.
推开房门的瞬间,他心中的担忧便被打消了不少——闪电看上去完好无损,脸上也没有明显的伤痕或血迹,胸口仍在起伏,这就意味着她并不会有什么大碍。即使此次侦查真遇到了危险,现在也已经安全了。Howeverhehas discovered quicklynot the place of suiting.
不过他很快就发现了不对劲之处。Nanahas not completed the relaxedfeeling after treatmentslightly, butisfrownstightly, lowers the headto size upownboth hands, appearance that puzzling.娜娜瓦丝毫没有完成救治后的轻松感,而是紧皱眉头,低头打量着自己的双手,一副迷惑不解的模样。Macyliesin the headnervous, is cleaning the Lightningforeheadwith the hand, saw when Rolandalsoshrankshrinkingtoward the clothesin the neck, appearance-- that makes the mistakehenotedat this time, has the thinperspirationto emitto the square featuresinunceasingly, in the lips and teeth that opensslightlyis sending out the moan, imitatessuch asimmersesin a nightmare.麦茜更是紧张兮兮地趴在床头,用手擦拭着闪电的额头,见到罗兰时还把脖子往衣服里缩了缩,一副做错了事的模样——这时他才注意到,对方脸上不断有细汗冒出,微微张开的唇齿间正发出浅浅的呻吟,彷如沉浸在一场噩梦之中。„What's the matter?”RolandlookstoNana, „where did Lightninginjure?”
“怎么回事?”罗兰望向娜娜瓦,“闪电到底伤在哪里了?”Latterraised headcomes, has referred toownchestslowly.
后者抬起头来,缓缓指了指自己的胸口。„Nightingale.”
“夜莺。”„Yes.”Nightingalewalks up, holdsLightningcautiously, helpinghertake offthatspecialwindproofcoat, thenlittleuntied the inside lining. In sheddingtocollar bone, shehas cannot help but anchored the hand, „Your Majesty, thisis--”
“是。”夜莺走上前去,小心翼翼地抱起闪电,帮她脱下了那件特殊的防风外套,接着一点点解开内衬。就在褪至锁骨之际,她不由得停住了手,“陛下,这是——”Rolandapproachesto the hospital bednear, discoverstwofingers of placesunder the Lightningneckneck, the wound of thumbsize. Peripherycontrastsnow whiteflesh, thisscarappearsespeciallystriking, the words that justexamines carefully, ithas not even injuredto the myo-level, has broken open the external skinmerely, isthattypeto put, no matteralsomeets the self-recovery the smallwound.罗兰靠近到病床边,发现在闪电颈脖下方两指处,有一个拇指大小的创口。对比周围雪白的肌肤,这道伤痕显得格外醒目,只不过细看的话,它甚至没有伤到肌层,仅仅是破开了表皮,属于那种放着不管也会自愈的小伤。Properly speaking, healssuchwound, toNanais the minor matter that suddenlythencancomplete.
按理说,愈合这样的伤口,对娜娜瓦而言不过是眨眼间便能完成的小事。Butherbelowa few wordsmakeRolandsame place.
但她的下一句话却让罗兰愣在原地。„Icannot cureher......”Nanato mutter, „in any eventactuatesmagic power, is unable to make the woundvanish, resembledmyabilityto expire was the same.”
“我治不好她……”娜娜瓦喃喃道,“无论如何驱动魔力,都无法让伤口消失,就好像我的能力失效了一样。”
