Doesn't the northern boundary welcome me?” 埃文伯爵笑呵呵地走了进来,道:“怎么?北境不欢迎我吗?” Of course not, I am only somewhat surprised.” Arnold was Count Ivan got up one glass of liquor hastily but actually, simultaneously inquired, „was your time to go abroad on a diplomatic mission the northern boundary?” “当然不是,我只是有些惊讶。”阿诺德连忙为埃文伯爵倒上了一杯酒,同时打探到,“您这次是出使北境吗?” The Count Ivan look on the liquor by table was obviously attracted, without answering Arnold's issue, but carries the wine glass, places under the nose to smell one lightly, then sipped one, but also closes the eye, tasted the long time, finally grows the one breath, praised: 埃文伯爵的眼神明显被桌上的酒吸引到了,没有回答阿诺德的问题,而是端起酒杯,放在鼻子下面轻嗅一阵,然后又抿了一口,还闭上眼睛,回味了半晌,最后才长出一口气,赞道: Good! The wine of Winster manor will not be always disappointing!” “不错!温斯特庄园的葡萄酒总不会让人失望!” Arnold flattered hastily: Count Sir you really understands the person of liquor, in my wine cellar also many collections, if you want, I want to ask you to help me appreciate!” 阿诺德连忙奉承道:“伯爵大人您是真的懂酒之人,我的酒窖里还有不少珍藏,如果您愿意,我想请您帮我鉴赏一下!” The Count Ivan brow selects, looks very excited, but, he represses the hope in heart, sits down before the bar, said to Arnold: 埃文伯爵眉头一挑,看起来非常心动,不过,他还是按耐住心中的渴望,在吧台前坐下,对阿诺德道: „North my time comes the boundary in a private capacity, therefore, but also hopes that do not leak out my whereabouts.” “我这次是以私人身份来北境,所以,还希望您不要将我的行踪泄露出去。” Naturally, naturally, I will certainly not speak irresponsibly.” In Arnold heart moves slightly, was guessing unceasingly Count Ivan comes the Winterfell City reason. “当然,当然,我一定不会乱说。”阿诺德心中微动,不断猜测着埃文伯爵前来凛冬城的原因。 The eastern boundary does not gather with the northern boundary, this in the brilliance empire is not always the secret. 东境与北境不合,这在光辉帝国从来都不是什么秘密。 Therefore, Arnold realizes immediately keenly, east this second son of boundary duke suddenly the secret under Weber knight's leadership met with himself, perhaps has something else planned. 所以,阿诺德立刻敏锐地意识到,这位东境公爵的次子突然在韦伯骑士的带领下秘密会见自己,恐怕是别有所图。 However, this is also an own opportunity! 不过,这也是自己的一次机会! Tonight matter of makes Arnold understand that Count Angelie had been determined must conform with the northern boundary business circle, but pitifully, the opposite party pleasing business spokesman , is actually not oneself. 今晚发生的事情让阿诺德明白,那位安格列伯爵已经决心要整合北境商界了,但可惜,对方中意的商界代言人,却不是自己。 This disappoints Arnold, and angry. 这让阿诺德失望,而且愤怒。 But appearance of Count Ivan, made him have a ray of hope. 埃文伯爵的出现,又让他重新产生了一丝希望。 During the consideration, Count Ivan in the liquor the cup has drunk completely. 思虑间,埃文伯爵已经将杯中酒饮尽。 Arnold gives hastily personally continued from above, simultaneously listens to Count Ivan saying: I heard, Count Angelie does want to form north one boundary foreign trade company?” 阿诺德连忙亲自给续上,同时听埃文伯爵说道:“我听说,安格列伯爵想要组建一个北境对外贸易公司?” Yes, Count Sir.” “是的,伯爵大人。” „, Does Mr. Arnold, you plan to invest to join this company?” “那么,阿诺德先生,您打算出资加入这个公司吗?” Naturally. Count Sir, I have to join, how long otherwise could not want, the northern boundary commercial circle will unable to hear my name.” “当然。伯爵大人,我不得不加入,否则要不了多久,北境商圈就会听不到我的名字了。” Count Ivan nods, regarding this indicated to understand, but also suggested: „ Mr. Arnold, regarding the concrete operational mode of this new company, I do not calculate that too understood. 埃文伯爵点点头,对此表示理解,但同时却也建议道:“阿诺德先生,对于这个新公司的具体运作方式,我也并不算太了解。 However, I felt, you can from that board of directors that is similar to Upper House starts. ” 不过,我却觉得,您可以从那个类似于元老院的董事会下手。” Arnold eyeball transferred the revolutions, said: You meant, I can attempt to control the board of directors?” 阿诺德眼珠子转了转,道:“您是说,我可以尝试控制董事会?” Yes. You can try, by you in the prestige of northern boundary business, wins over a group of merchants, wins certain right to speak is not difficult in the board of directors.” “是的。您可以试一试,以您在北境商界的威望,拉拢一批商人,在董事会获得一定的话语权并不算难。” Thank your suggestion, I will try to do.” On Arnold mouth is expressing gratitude, in the heart actually somewhat thinks otherwise. “感谢您的建议,我会试着去做的。”阿诺德嘴上道着谢,心中却有些不以为然。 In his opinion, north this boundary foreign trade company is so important, does Count Angelie possibly make the control of board of directors be lost? 在他看来,这个北境对外贸易公司如此重要,安格列伯爵又怎么可能让董事会的控制权旁落? The St. Hilde family did not mind that the major merchants invest to occupy certain stock in this new company, shares part of benefits, but if some really people do not know good from bad, tries to rob the control of company with the St. Hilde family, hehe, really thinks that these aristocrat masters won't kill people? 圣希尔德家族不介意各大商人都出资在这个新公司中占据一定的股份,分享一部分的利益,但如果真有人不知好歹,试图跟圣希尔德家族抢夺公司的控制权,呵呵,真以为那些贵族老爷们不会杀人么? Count Ivan as if saw through Arnold's anxiety, then asked with a smile: Mr. Arnold, are you worry do this will bring in the retaliation of St. Hilde family?” 埃文伯爵似乎看穿了阿诺德的疑虑,便笑着问道:“阿诺德先生,您是不是担心这样做会引来圣希尔德家族的打击报复?” Arnold looks at east this boundary Count young face, also thinks oneself at present the awkward situation and gloomy prospect, cannot help but the nod said honestly: Yes.” 阿诺德看着这位东境伯爵年轻的脸庞,又想到自己目前尴尬的处境和晦暗的前景,不由得点头坦诚道:“是的。” Count Ivan laughs, comforts saying: This you do not need to worry, the northern boundary is not Vera and Colin northern boundary.” 埃文伯爵哈哈一笑,安慰道:“这个您不用担心,北境不是薇拉和柯林两人的北境。” Listens to Count Ivan this to have the words of profound meaning greatly, in Arnold heart moves, pursues anxiously asks: Count Sir, I am please dull-witted, is unable to comprehend your meaning.” 听着埃文伯爵这句大有深意的话,阿诺德心中一动,急切地追问道:“伯爵大人,请恕我愚钝,无法领会您的意思。” However, Count Ivan is actually considering only drinking wine, without replying Arnold's meaning. 然而,埃文伯爵却只顾着饮酒,没有回答阿诺德的意思。 When the Arnold distressed air/Qi is hot-tempered, the one side silent for a long time Weber knight opens the mouth to say suddenly: Mr. Arnold, you had not heard, recently Young Master Joyce with good that Princess Judy was together?” 就在阿诺德心焦气躁的时候,一旁沉默许久的韦伯骑士突然开口道:“阿诺德先生,您难道没有听说,最近乔伊斯少爷跟朱蒂公主相处的不错?” Un? 嗯? Young Master Joyce? 乔伊斯少爷? Arnold this/Ben wants saying that now the ownership of position of northern boundary duke has settled down, can Young Master Joyce also raise what storm? 阿诺德本想说,现在北境公爵之位的归属已经尘埃落定,难道乔伊斯少爷还能掀起什么风浪? But immediately, Arnold realized, if Young Master Joyce really can get married Princess Judy, and even earns the support of imperial family, but also really may get out at present the awkward situation. 但随即,阿诺德就意识到,如果乔伊斯少爷真的能够迎娶朱蒂公主,乃至获得皇室的支持,还真有可能摆脱目前尴尬的处境。 Arnold's vision has swept on Weber knight and Count Ivan face, in the heart rouses suddenly. 阿诺德的目光在韦伯骑士和埃文伯爵脸上扫过,心中忽然振奋起来。 If the imperial family and Sebas Consul and eastern boundary support Joyce...... that even if he does not regard the northern boundary duke, can still certainly form one to be able in Winterfell City the influence that contends with the northern boundary duke. 如果皇室、赛巴斯执政官和东境都支持乔伊斯……那就算他当不成北境公爵,也一定能在凛冬城形成一股可以跟北境公爵相抗衡的势力。 In this case, can't oneself seek harbour? 这样的话,自己不就可以寻求庇护了吗? Saw Arnold's look brightly gradually, Count Ivan smiled lightly, said: Mr. Arnold, currently do you have the confidence?” 见阿诺德的眼神渐渐明亮了起来,埃文伯爵淡淡一笑,道:“阿诺德先生,现在您有信心了吗?” Arnold depresses the excitement in heart, the sinking sound said: Does not know whether to arrange me to pay a visit Young Master Joyce?” 阿诺德压下心中的激动,沉声道:“不知能否安排我拜见一下乔伊斯少爷?” Weber knight acts with constraint nods, said: Time appropriate words, I will arrange.” 韦伯骑士矜持地点点头,道:“时机合适的话,我会安排的。” Count Ivan also agitates to say again: Mr. Arnold, if you need the support in fund, the St. Plossi family could render certain assistance.” 埃文伯爵也再次鼓动道:“阿诺德先生,如果您需要资金上的支持,圣普洛斯家族或许可以给予一定的帮助。” That was really thanks you!” Arnold expressed gratitude hastily. “那真是太感谢您了!”阿诺德连忙道谢。 But should not be happy.” The Count Ivan reminder said that the fund assistance that „ the St. Plossi family can render is definitely limited, after all I am very difficult to convince the father to invest the big funds into one north in the company of boundary. “但您也别太高兴。”埃文伯爵提醒道,“圣普洛斯家族能够给予的资金帮助肯定是有限的,毕竟我很难说服父亲将大笔资金投入到一个北境的公司中去。 Let alone, if you take the big funds of unknown origin all of a sudden, perhaps will cause the vigilance of Count Angelie. ” 更何况,如果您一下子拿出大笔来历不明的资金,恐怕会引起安格列伯爵的警惕。” I understand.” Arnold had restored the fighting spirit at this time, said self-confidently, asked you to believe my so many years in the rallying point of northern boundary business, how Olive that young fellow did fight me?” “我明白。”阿诺德此时已经重新恢复了斗志,自信满满地说道,“请您相信我这么多年在北境商界的号召力,奥利弗那个毛头小子怎么斗得过我?” Count Ivan is also echoing saying with a smile: Haha! I also think that Count Angelie truly misread the person!” 埃文伯爵也附和着笑道:“哈哈!我也是这么认为的,安格列伯爵确实看错了人!” Said the subject, Arnold sends out to invite immediately: „Does Count Sir, you have free time the nice wine that now appraises me to collect?” 说完正题,阿诺德当即发出邀请道:“伯爵大人,您现在有空品鉴一下我珍藏的好酒了吗?” Count Ivan eye one bright, nods to say again and again: Good! Believes that you will certainly not disappoint me!” 埃文伯爵眼睛一亮,连连点头道:“好!相信您一定不会让我失望!”
