Miss Miller said that own conclusion, sees the Jenkin mystified appearance, immediately reveals felt the surprised expression slightly. Jenkin blinks, pulls out 10 pounds paper money and 3 silver coins from the pocket. 米勒小姐说完自己的结论,见詹金斯一脸迷惑的样子,立刻露出了稍感惊讶的表情。詹金斯眨眨眼,从口袋里掏出十镑的纸币和三枚银币。 Although saves now many, but money would squandering time. His present fixed income is per week 5 pounds 10 pennies, 4 pounds are Church provide to the Gifted pay, 1 pound is Old Man gives his apprentice wages, 10 pennies are at night in the pay that Church teaches. 虽然现在积蓄很多,但钱总会有花光的时候。他现在的固定收入是每周五镑十便士,其中四镑是教会提供给恩赐者的薪酬,一镑是老爹给他的学徒工资,十便士是夜晚在教会教课的薪酬。 Calculates, one year 52 weeks of income is about 281 pounds. Naturally, this is only the fixed income, the business of antique store will have deducting a percentage, but " Stranger's Collection of Stories » sale is divided is also a big income. 这么算下来,一年52周的收入就是281镑左右。当然,这只是固定收入,古董店的生意会有提成,而《异乡人故事集》的销售分成也是一大笔进项。 With the cooperation of overseas publisher, means that Jenkin can divide the money of arriving at to be short, not only this is related with the tax system, but also is related with the certain unspoken rules of sale abroad. Therefore, after the most fiery stage of domestic books sale had ended, money that his one year can receive, perhaps in addition also insufficient these numbers of Mr. Bro attaining three first times. «Stranger's Collection of Stories» can bring to Jenkin, what are more is honorary. 和国外的出版商的合作,就意味着詹金斯能够分到的钱要少了很多,这不仅和税制有关,还和外销的某些潜规则有关。因此,在国内的图书销售的最火热阶段已经结束后,他一年能拿到的钱,恐怕加起来也不够前三次从布罗先生拿到的那些数目。《异乡人故事集》能给詹金斯带来的,更多的还是名誉。 „A year of legitimate gross income, perhaps also only then about 1000 pounds, moreover except for the Church pay, other must pay tax!.” “一年的合法总收入,恐怕也只有1000镑左右,而且除了教会的薪酬,其他的要上税！。” Jenkin understood this matter long before, if his is an average person, then he as an expense not big bachelor, can definitely depend upon such income, hiring three maids( to look after Chocolate) to add on a horse cart driver and a groom, simultaneously can have 12 horse and a carriage. 詹金斯很早以前就明白了这件事,如果他这是一个普通人,那么他作为一个花销不大的单身汉,完全可以依靠这样的收入,雇请三个女仆(照顾巧克力)加上一个马车夫和一个马夫,同时可以有一两匹马和一辆马车。 This is in the middle class, the highest paid community can treatment. On yearly salary high several times, can be called the true upper class again. 这已经是中产阶级中,收入最高的群体了能够得到的待遇了。年薪再高上几倍,就可以称为真正的上层阶级了。 But his expense is also big, employment Mrs. Mahat every week ties wages time, the life, must bear the own meal expense alone, the steam fee/spent, according to clothing allowance of season replacement, the maintenance expense of house. Do not say, as Gifted, the ceremony that studies ability, enough Jenkin invested one year of complete income. 但他的花销同样不小,雇佣的马哈特太太每周结一次工资,独自生活,要负担自己的餐费,蒸汽费,按季节更换的服装费,还有房子的维修保养费用。更不要说,身为恩赐者,一个学习能力的仪式,就足够詹金斯投入一年的全部的收入了。 He still remembers, when knew 【Star World Perception】 When the gem quantity, oneself is shock how. 他至今还记得,当得知【星界感知】所需要的宝石数量时,自己是多么的震惊。 Therefore, before the savings in hand all spends, he pledged that must find one legitimately, way that can become rich. 所以,在手中的积蓄花完以前,他发誓一定要找到一条合法的,能够致富的方式。 Old Man told him, asked an eminent aristocrat young girl to get married, this goal can achieve quickly. But Jenkin wants some faces, moreover he suspected that Old Man proposed goal of this attention, is to direct at the public relations and marriage the topic. 老爹告诉他,找一名家世显赫的贵族少女结婚,这个目的很快就能达成。但詹金斯还是要些脸面的,而且他怀疑老爹提出这个注意的目的,是想将话题引到社交和婚姻上。 The material that Miss Miller wants, Jenkin attained and gave her quickly. He suspected very much, Strange Item that this type presents randomly, actually must build what kind of model to figure out the rule, but thinks afterward, Miss Miller is possibly grasping what special ability or the goods, unified the item of arithmetic and divination. 米勒小姐想要的资料,詹金斯很快就拿到并交给了她。他很怀疑,这种随机出现的诡物,究竟要建立怎样的模型才能算出规律,但后来又想到,米勒小姐可能掌握着什么特殊能力或物品吧,结合了算术和占卜的道具。 Saturday morning, Old Man has the matter to go out, therefore gave Jenkin to have a day of false. He gets up when is very early, goes downstairs takes the newspaper bumps into with the young delivering milk labor exactly. 周六的早晨,老爹有事要外出,所以就给詹金斯放了一天假。他起的很早,下楼取报纸时与年轻的送奶工恰好撞见。 Young people very warm sells a brand-new taste with him the milk, because each week must pay 5 pennies much, Jenkin polite turning down. 年轻人很热情的跟他推销一种全新口味的牛奶,由于每周要多支付五便士,詹金斯客气的婉拒了。 Takes the newspaper from the washroom, Jenkin thinks that the reply of Elderon almost must arrive. He cannot certainly write down the own address in the letter/believes, the address of receiving, is of a pig bar black market entrances. 拿着报纸从盥洗室中出来的时候,詹金斯才想起来埃尔德隆的回信差不多要到了。他当然不能将自己的地址写在信上,收信的地址,是黑市入口之一的猪头酒吧。 That remote bar had both the black market, the firearms business, the dangerous material transaction and information to trade and other functions. After Jenkin puts on the black robe camouflage, had inquired the wineshop attendant in bar, whether they can receive on another's behalf the letter. 那座偏僻的酒吧兼具了黑市、枪械买卖、危险品交易、情报贩卖等多项功能。詹金斯披上黑袍伪装后,询问过酒吧的酒保,他们是否可以代收信件。 The wineshop attendant twisted the mouth sidewise the mouth, expressed richly on the line . Moreover the address was the apartment address that may check. 酒保咧开了嘴,表示有钱就行,而且地址是一个真实可查的公寓地址。 „One cup of old black beer.” “一杯老黑啤。” Still is camouflages the shape Jenkin to knock the desktop of bar. 依然是伪装形态的詹金斯敲敲吧台的桌面。 „5 pennies.” “五便士。” The wineshop attendant link not to lift, although now is in the morning, but the business of bar is good. Before the bar, sits many people, what left Jenkin is a middle-aged person who wears the eyeglasses, clothing is somewhat poor, the strong tobacco smell chokes Jenkin not to dare to gasp for breath. 酒保连头都没有抬起来,现在虽然是上午,但酒吧的生意还不错。吧台前还坐着不少人,詹金斯左边的是一个戴着眼镜的中年人,身上的衣物有些寒酸,浓烈的烟草气味呛得詹金斯不敢喘气。 Jenkin hands over a wrinkled paper money, the wineshop attendant has grasped in the hand, above sees writes one skewer of numbers with the pencil, nods toward him. 詹金斯递过一张皱巴巴的纸币,酒保抓在手中,见上面用铅笔写着一串数字,朝他点点头。 Jenkin turned around to look for a remote single table to sit down, when a while, the waiter sent the beer, left, near the Jenkin leg were many a black handbag. 詹金斯转身找了一个偏僻的单人桌坐下,一会儿,侍者将啤酒送来,离开时,詹金斯腿边还多了一只黑色的皮包。 „Won't that 2 pounds that I spend, be used to buy the package?” “我花的那二镑,不会都用来买包了吧？” Thought that he suspects. 他怀疑的想到。 With these letters some actually what people originally wants to probe Elderon city Lvyin Avenue 13 th, but since present Church also knew this matter, these letters did not have the function. 本来是想用这些信件试探一下埃尔德隆市绿茵大道13号究竟有些什么人,但既然现在教会也知晓了这件事,这些信就没有了作用。 But in line with money cannot the principle of white bloom, he inspect some replies slightly. 但本着钱不能白花的原则,他还是稍微检查了一些回信。 The letter altogether mailed out 50, that is the 4 days ago matter. If there is still not replied in writing now, that will not really have the reply. 信件一共寄出了50封,那是四天前的事情。如果现在仍旧没有回信,那就真的是不会有回信了。 Counted, 37 people the questionnaire will send, most important that also, this was the paper money in letter/believes played the role without doubt. 数了一下,有37个人将调查问卷寄了回来,其中最重要的那一封也在,这无疑是信中的纸币发挥了作用。 Jenkin sits on the chair of restaurant, that letter/believes from Elderon city Lvyin Avenue will disassemble, care of very questionnaire reply, does not seem like perfunctory. What if this inside said is the truth, person who then fills in the questionnaire, should be one yearly income about 300 pounds, is doing the ordinary clerical job, single unmarried 27 -year-old man. 詹金斯坐在餐厅的椅子上,将来自埃尔德隆市绿茵大道的那封信拆开,调查问卷回答的很仔细,不像是敷衍的。如果这里面说的是真话,那么填写问卷的人,应该是一位年收入300镑左右,做着普通的文职工作,单身未婚的27岁男人。 „Are the present swindlers so honest?” “现在的诈骗犯都这么诚实吗？” Jenkin felt matter smooth is not very normal, therefore he suspected, this is receiving the lying level of person is too high, therefore oneself has not seen this inside flaw. 詹金斯觉得事情顺利的很不正常,于是他又怀疑,这是收信的人的说谎水平太高,所以自己未看出这里面的破绽。 Matter should end in Jenkin burns down these replies, then this matter never has happened. But he shook the envelope, discovered that Lvyin Avenue No. 13 reply, wrote a short news unexpectedly. The news writes on a neat paper, the typeface is very ugly, but the spelling does not have the mistake: 事情本来应该结束于詹金斯将这些回信烧掉,然后这件事情从未发生过。但他抖了抖信封,发现绿茵大道13号的回信者,居然还写了一条短消息。消息写在一张工整的纸条上,字体很丑,但拼字没有错误: 【 Dear Miss Fabry: 【亲爱的法布里小姐: Can participate in your social investigation luck, thanked your generous, I will anticipate your continuation letter, hopes can obtain the latest news of graduation project. 很幸运能够参与到你的社会调查中,也感谢您的慷慨,我将期待您的继续来信,希望能得到您的毕业设计的最新消息。 Hunt Bell 】 亨特・贝尔】 „, Was troublesome.” “啊,麻烦了。” Jenkin covers the head to say in a low voice. 詹金斯捂着脑袋低声说道。 Has basically been able to determine through the judgment of Church, is on the 12 th 【Lying Prince】 The residence of follower. Just, had not confirmed that this is only a relay address, is hiding true evil cultist. If Jenkin does not reply in writing, evil cultist that possibly has might begin to have suspicions, then suspected that was probed, will then run away...... „I to think were too many?” 通过教会的判断基本已经可以确定,12号就是【谎言王子】的信徒的住所。只不过,还未确认这只是一个中转地址,还是隐藏着真正的邪教徒。如果詹金斯不回信,可能存在的邪教徒有可能会起疑,然后怀疑被人试探,然后逃走......“我会不会想的太多了？” PS: In this chapter, 1000 pounds yearly income, enough bachelor achieves these, does not scribble conveniently. PS:本章中,1000镑的年收入,足够单身汉做到这些,不是随手乱写的。
