„Good morning, Mr.Goodman!”
“早上好,古德曼先生!”„Good morning, BaronWilliams!”
“早上好,威廉姆特男爵!”Twoportraits/people looks likegreetedin the pastsame, after becausesinceEvil GodSon of Godmatter, suchdialogueverylonghas not been held.
两人像往常一样打起了招呼,自从因为邪神神子的事情后,这样的对话已经很久没有进行了。Jenkinnoticed the ownneighborto use„Baron”rather than„mister”, hetoodid not understandthischangebecause ofanything.詹金斯注意到自己的邻居使用了“男爵”而非“先生”,他不太理解这种改变是因为什么。Originallyhas greetedmustturn aroundto return to the ownhouse, actuallysaw that before Mr.Goodmanclamps the oneselfblackbriefcasehalf stepto arrive at the stockade of Jenkin . Although the gardens in twohousesmerged, butbothstockademouthsretained.
本来打过招呼就要转身回到自己的房子,却又看到古德曼先生夹着自己黑色的公文包快步走到詹金斯家的栅栏前。虽然两栋房子的花园合并了,但两个栅栏口都保留了下来。„Whatmatter do you have?”
“您还有什么事情吗?”Hetakes the letterfrom the mailboxwhile asked that looked at a mailing a letteraddress, unexpectedlywasseniorpainterGrant, two peoplebeforeJenkinleftNolan Cityhave met, hehad not saidat that timeoneselfmustlook forJenkin.
他一边从信箱中取信件一边问道,看了一眼寄信地址,居然是老画家格兰特,两人在詹金斯离开诺兰市以前见过一面,他当时并没有表示自己要找詹金斯。„Was sorry that disturbsyousome time, actuallymyissue to consultyou.”
“抱歉打扰您一段时间,其实我有一个问题想要请教您。”„Although said that weare the friendlyneighbors, myhouserepair, did not disturbyou”
“尽管说就可以,我们是友好的邻居,我的房子装修,不也打扰到您了吗”Jenkinclampsthatletter/believesin the newspaper, waited forMr.Goodmanto say the matter. The front page of today'smorning paperis a picture of noseverybigman, hewears the formal dressto raise handto face the lens, does not know that is makinganything.詹金斯将那封信夹在报纸中,等待古德曼先生说事情。今天早报的头版是一个鼻子很大的男人的相片,他穿着正装举着手朝向镜头,也不知道在做什么。„, Isthis, inmypresenthandhassomeidlepound sterlings, wantsto invest the inventionproject on newspaper.”
“哦,是这样的,我现在手中有一些闲余的金镑,想要投资报纸上的发明项目。”Saying, givesJenkinthatpage of papers in hand, helookedsketchily, thisis very commoninventorgathers the investor. As forthatinvention, is named as【Multi-layeredfluctuationclothes rack of multipurposesemiautomaticsteam powersleverageprinciple -based】.
说着,将手中的那页纸递给詹金斯,他粗略的看了一下,这是很常见的发明家招揽投资者。至于那项发明物,则被命名为【多功能半自动蒸汽动力基于杠杆传动原理的多层升降衣架】。Hespent for aboutoneminute, successfulresolution the significance of name.
他花了将近一分钟,才成功的分辨出名字的意义。„Iwantto consultyou, thisprojectis whether reliable, whetherIshouldinvestmoneyto go. Pleasedo not feelawkward, Ionlyneedto suggest,anythingsuggested.”
“我想要请教您,这个项目是否可靠,我是否应该投钱进去。请不要感到为难,我只需要一些建议,什么建议都可以。”Then, helooksearnestlytoJenkin, as ifhisnextquartercansamegivehimto directtothe Sage in ancientmyth.
说完,他热切的看向詹金斯,仿佛他下一刻就能向古代神话中的贤者一样给予他指引。„Un......”
“嗯......”JenkinisGod of Liesis not the plutus, thisissuehewas unanswerable. Reason that hisveryclearoneselfthiskindneighborconsults, probablyiscrucial role that becausein the newspaperstillinpromotinghimplaysin„the Fabryfraud”.詹金斯是谎言之神不是财富之神,这种问题他无法回答。他很清楚自己这位和蔼的邻居请教的原因,大概是因为报纸上依然在鼓吹他在“法布里骗局”中起到的关键作用。Hein the reputation in thismatterobtaining, has covered the reputation of noted authorcompletely. NowraisesJenkinWilliams, whatpeoplefirstrememberisthataristocrat who exposed the legendaryfraud.
他在这件事情中得到的名声,已经完全盖过了知名作家的名声。现在提起詹金斯・威廉姆特,人们第一时间想起的是那位揭破了传奇骗局的贵族。Finally, Jenkin can only regrettold the ownneighbor, „investmenthad the risk, spentto needdiscretely”. ButMr.Goodmanis not disappointed, insteadprobablyobtained the godsdecreeto leavegeneraljubilantly. Hewholeheartedlyhopes that the ownneighbor should not be failedin the investmentgame, after allhispreviousneighborhad died.
最后,詹金斯只能遗憾的告诉自己的邻居,“投资有风险,花钱需谨慎”。但古德曼先生也不失望,反而像是得到神明旨意一般兴高采烈的离开了。他衷心的希望自己的邻居不要在投资游戏中失败,毕竟他的上一个邻居已经死掉了。
The purchase the house of Margaretwidow, means the neighbor who MadameMargaretbecomeshisneighbornow. Butthatneighboringhouseisonein the merchant of Nolandoing business, hepassesto liveinthisstreet, buthad not movedafter the Son of Godevent. Jenkinhas a mindto visit, butcould not find the opportunitycontinuously, can only give up.
购买下了玛格丽特寡妇的房子,就意味着玛格丽特夫人的邻居现在成了他的邻居。而那栋相邻的房子属于一位在诺兰经商的商人,他过去居住在这条街,但在神子事件后一直没有搬回来。詹金斯有心去拜访,但一直找不到机会,只能作罢。Yesterdayjust nowreturnsfrom the distant place, Old ManallowedJenkinto rest for dayto workagain. Histoday'smatteralsohas, someNolan Cityalsomanypeople and eventsafter an absence of one week are waiting forhim.
昨天才刚从远方归来,老爹允许詹金斯休息一天再去工作。他今天的事情也有很多,阔别了一周的诺兰市还有很多人和事件在等待着他。Has the breakfastwhilereads the newspaper, disassembled the letter/believes of seniorpainterwhile convenient. In«Stranger's Collection of Stories»successful that verytwo peoplecooperate, butJenkin the title page and illustration of secondbook, are usedbyhimpersonally【Thoughtography】Draws, thereforetwo peoplehave not carried out the secondcooperation.
一边吃早饭一边翻看报纸,顺便拆开了老画家的信。在《异乡人故事集》中两人合作的很成功,而詹金斯的第二本书的封面和插画,由他亲自用【念写】画出的,因此两人并没有进行第二次合作。
The letter of seniorpainter, isrequested that Jenkinis authorizedhimto use the previoustimeillustration, participatesrecentlyat the Nolan Cityart exhibition. Inart exhibition the corner of newsnewspaperalsohas, buthad not noticeda moment ago.
老画家的这次来信,是请求詹金斯授权他使用上次的插画,去参加最近在诺兰市举办的画展。画展的消息报纸的角落中也有,只是刚才没注意到。Theseillustrations the timeare boughtbyJenkinsooner, under the presentlaw, the right of useishimcompletely. Butparticipates in the picturerequest of art exhibitionto have the creationproof and right of use, thereforeoldGrant the meetingreceives a letter the requestauthorization.
那些插画早些时间由詹金斯买下,按照现行的法律,使用权全部属于他。而参加画展的画要求拥有创作证明和使用权,因此老格兰特才会来信请求授权。„Thisnaturally.”
“这当然可以。”Hetakes pen in handto reply in writing and power of attorneywrites, then brought the kittyto go out. Firstwent to the post officeto mail the letter, purchasedthis month«Tropical diseaseMedicinePerspective», thenin the featherpenwriterclub, sawbookmanMr.Broandownnew book«Frozen».
他提笔将回信和授权书写好,然后便带着猫咪出门去了。先去邮局邮寄了信件,又购买了这个月的《热带病医学前瞻》,然后在羽毛笔作家俱乐部中,见到了书商布罗先生和自己的新书《冰雪奇缘》。Passed throughso manytime, evenDemigod and indescribablemonsterdied, butthisbookwas publishedfinally.
经过了这么多的时间,甚至半神和不可名状的怪物都死掉了很多,而这本书终于问世了。Mr.Brolooksveryexcited, does not know that isbecausecompletedthismatterfinally, becausesawJenkinagain. When heandJenkininitial cooperation, the young people are also only a anythingnoantique storeapprentice, althoughnowstillantique storeapprentice, butotherstatushave mademajority in thiscitybe able not hold a candle.布罗先生看上去很激动,也不知道是因为终于完成了这件事,还是因为再次见到了詹金斯。他和詹金斯初次合作时,年轻人还只是一个什么都没有的古董店学徒,虽然现在依然还是古董店学徒,但其他的身份已经让这座城市中的大部分都望尘莫及。Mr.Brothistime a new book that brought an entireonlycardboard box, lettingJenkincandistributethemto the ownfriend. The title page of new bookisJenkinuses【Thoughtography】Draws, the compositionis very simple, twoprincessesstandbefore the cliffare looking out the sunrise and boundlesssnowy mountain of distant place.布罗先生这次带来了一整只纸箱的新书,让詹金斯可以将它们分发给自己的朋友。新书的封面是詹金斯用【念写】画出来的,构图十分简单,两位公主站在断崖前遥望着远处的日出和茫茫雪山。Thistimestyleis partial is more practical, aftersolicitingagreement of Miss StuartandJulia, the facial featuresprofited fromtheirimage. Even ifJenkinhas no artisticcell, butthere is【Thoughtography】 Such convenienttool, read is a chart, changing is not troublesome.
这次的画风偏向于写实一些,在征得了斯图亚特小姐和茱莉亚的同意后,脸型借鉴了她们的形象。即使詹金斯没有什么艺术细胞,但有【念写】这么方便的工具,一念便是一张图,改起来也并不麻烦。„Todayison Saturday, Iplanformallyto issue that onMondaythisbook, thistimeis not the Nolan Cityfirst round, butunfoldsinentireKingdomtogether! Howdoes not know, thisevenKingdomculturaldepartmentcoordinatestimeon own initiative, is really the Sageblesses, is really travelblesses!”
“今天是周六,我计划着在周一正式发布这本书,这次可不是诺兰市首发,而是在整个王国一起铺开!不知怎么的,这一次连王国的文化部门都主动配合,真是贤者保佑,真是旅者保佑!”Mr.Broannouncedexcitedly, is sayingwhilecleaned the sweat of foreheadwith the handkerchief. The clubtemperatureis very high, thisis unfriendlyregardinghis such person of build.布罗先生兴奋的宣布道,一边说着一边用手绢擦拭额头的汗水。俱乐部内部的温度很高,这对于他这样体形的人来说并不友好。Hispresentconfidenceis very full, if not the channel in handis insufficientas well asJenkinoneselfdo not havethatwish, otherwiseheevendares the entiremainlandto selltogether. Thisbookabsolutelywill not be in any case unsalable, heaffirmedregardingthis point.
他现在信心很足,如果不是手中的渠道不足以及詹金斯本人没有那个意愿,否则他甚至敢整个大陆一起进行发售。反正这本书绝对不会滞销,对于这一点他非常肯定。Signedbefore thenabout the new bookagreement, butthistimeMr.Bro, not onlyinformedJenkinto take the book, healsoinquiredyoungwriter, preparedto conduct the signatureto sell the book.
关于新书的协议在此之前就签好了,而这次布罗先生并不只是通知詹金斯来取书,他还询问了年轻的作家,是否准备进行签名售书。Thisisin recent years the newmarketingway, on the one handpulls closer the readerandwriter'srelations, on the one handletscertainyounghandsomewriters, usesbeyond the writing technique„advantage”, obtainsmorereaders.
这是近些年来新出现的营销方式,一方面拉近读者和作家的关系,一方面让某些年轻英俊的作家们,利用写作技巧以外的“优势”,去获得更多的读者。PS: The bookmanBrobeliefhas【Contract】GodhoodTraceless Traveller, will therefore sigh that „the Sageblesses, travelbless”.
PS:书商布罗信仰拥有【契约】神职的无踪旅者,因此才会感叹“贤者保佑,旅者保佑”。
