„Thesebattleships that CountSir, yourequests, DukeSt. Plossiwill bewill not complyin any event.”
“伯爵大人,您所要求的那些战舰,圣普洛斯公爵是无论如何都不会答应的。”„Is DukeSt. Plossiwillingto redeemthissonwithwhat?”
“那圣普洛斯公爵愿意拿什么来赎回这个儿子?”
The fee/spentpulls outonevolume of personally written lettersbecause of the viscountfrom the bosom, goes forwardseveralsteps, launchesin front ofColinslowly.
费因子爵从怀中掏出一卷手札,上前几步,在柯林面前缓缓展开。Thatis a map.
那是一幅地图。Colinbodyslightlyleans forward, vision as centralizedasmapon.
柯林身体微微前倾,将目光集中到地图上。Hehad not worried that the fee/spentwill play a trick of the plot revealedbecause of the viscount, after allthisfee/spentbecause ofstrengthmight as wellhim of viscount, even if the fee/spenthas the skillto holdface to faceColin'schest the daggerbecause of the viscount, un, thatcannot kill a blood group.
他倒没有担心费因子爵会玩一出图穷匕见的把戏,毕竟这个费因子爵的实力还不如他,而且就算费因子爵有本事当面将匕首捅进柯林的胸口,嗯,那也杀不死一位血族。
„ CountSirpleaselook,thisis located ineast bank of the angrywaterrivercitynamed the rockstone wall, occupies a land area ofapproximately150square miles, has180,000peopleto reside, every year the tax revenuein200,000gold coinsabove, could be a quitelivelycity.
“伯爵大人请看,这座位于怒水河东岸的城市名叫磐石城,占地约一百五十平方英里,现有十八万子民居于其中,每年税收收入在二十万金币以上,算得上是一座相当繁华的城市了。DukeSt. Plossipledged, ifyouare willingto releasemarquisVincent, then, thisrockstone wallwill belong tounderyourgoverning! ”圣普洛斯公爵承诺,如果您愿意释放文森特侯爵,那么,这座磐石城将归于您的治下!”Colinlooksunemotionally the fee/spentbecause of the viscountat a point that on the mapencircles, in the heartsneers.
柯林面无表情地看着费因子爵在地图上圈出来的一个点,心中不住冷笑。
A city, changes a person.
一座城市,换一个人。
It seems like very cost-effectivebusiness.
看起来很划算的买卖。Butto Colin, is actually not meaningful.
但对于柯林来说,却没有任何意义。Although the rockstone wallis good, but is actually together the administrative enclave.
磐石城虽好,但却是一块飞地。So long as the angrywaterriverineasternboundary, Colinis impossible the large-scalearmyto transportto guard the rockstone wall.
只要怒水河还在东境手里,柯林就不可能将大规模的军队运过去守卫磐石城。Without the large-scalearmyguards, howto keep the peace? Howto manage? Howto collect taxes?
没有大规模的军队镇守,怎么维持治安?怎么管理?怎么收税?When the time comes, thiscity is also only the nominalownershipinColin, butin factin the control of easternboundary.
到时候,这座城市也只是名义上的归属于柯林,但实际上还是在东境的掌控中。Is equivalent to the easternboundaryanythingnot to pay, received in exchangemarquisVincent.
相当于东境啥都没有付出,就换回了文森特侯爵。Reallywantsto result inbeautiful!
真是想得美!Therefore, Colindoes not curl the lipvery muchpatiently, said: „Ido not wanteast you city of boundary, wechatted the battleship.”
所以,柯林很是不耐烦地撇撇嘴,道:“我不要你们东境的城市,咱们还是来谈谈战舰吧。”
The fee/spentactuallyshakes the headbecause of the viscountfirmly, said: „Sorry, CountSir, DukeSt. Plossiisnot possibleto cometo exchangewithyouwith the battleship.”
费因子爵却坚定地摇摇头,道:“抱歉,伯爵大人,圣普洛斯公爵是不可能拿战舰来跟您交换的。”„Does hedeceivemewith the city of easternboundary?”Colinno longerwas also polite, the opposite partysimplyisintentionallyhim, when the foolplays.
“那他就用东境的城市来糊弄我?”柯林也不再客气了,对方简直就是故意将他当傻子耍。„CountSir, ifyouare unsatisfiedabout the rockstone wall, we can also change a biggercity......”
“伯爵大人,如果您对磐石城不满意,我们还可以换一个更大的城市……”„Does not need! YoucomewithWhite Dew City, Ido not trade!”
“不必了!你就是拿白露城来,我也不换!”Colinstoodfrom the thronefiercely, goes down the stairwith stride, arrives at the fee/spentbecause of the viscountin front, coldlyis staring at the eyes of opposite partyfrom the vicinity, the sinkingsound said:
柯林猛地从王座上站了起来,大步走下台阶,来到费因子爵面前,冷冷地从近处凝视着对方的眼睛,沉声道:
„ It seems likeDukeSt. Plossidoes not wantto receive in exchangeoneselfthisson, such being the case, wedo not needto waste the argumentagain.
“看来圣普洛斯公爵根本就不想换回自己这个儿子,既然如此,那我们也没必要再浪费口舌了。MakesmarquisVincentreturn to the northernboundaryto be a guestwithmeagain. ”
就让文森特侯爵再次跟我回北境作客吧。”SeeingColinattitudeis firm, the fee/spentis unable againto maintainbecause of the viscountbeforehandcalmandacted with constraint, detainsto sayhastily: „CountSir, redeems the conditionalwaysto discuss that whyyoudo worry?”
见柯林态度坚决,费因子爵也无法再保持之前的冷静和矜持了,连忙挽留道:“伯爵大人,赎回条件总可以谈嘛,您又何必如此着急呢?”Colincoldlysmiles, said: „Person who wastetimeIdo not want without the sincerity, yougo backto tellDukeSt. Plossi, except for the battleship, gave up any idea of that received exchangeownsonwithotherat sixes and sevensthing!”
柯林冷冷一笑,道:“我只是不想跟没有诚意的人浪费时间,你回去告诉圣普洛斯公爵,除了战舰,休想用别的乱七八糟的东西换回自己的儿子!”Seeing the fee/spentis awkwardbecause of a viscountface, Colinthenopens the mouth, the toneis slightly more moderate, said: „Naturally, the number and tonnage of battleship, wecandiscussslowly.”
见费因子爵一脸为难,柯林便又开口,语气稍稍缓和一些,道:“当然,战舰的数量和吨位,我们可以慢慢谈。”
The fee/spentsees thatbecause of the viscount, hasto nod saying: „Yes, CountSir, Iwill certainly conveyyourmeaningtoDukeSt. Plossi.”
费因子爵见状,只好点头道:“是,伯爵大人,我一定会将您的意思转达给圣普洛斯公爵。”Then, thenbowsto saluteto ask to be excused.
说完,便躬身行礼告退。Had/Left the royal palace, the fee/spentrode a magnificentcarriagebecause of the viscount.
出了王宫,费因子爵坐上一辆华丽的马车。
The carriagehad/left the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gatetosouth, stopsbefore a suburbscommonvilla.
马车一路向南出了银月城,在城郊一座不起眼的别墅前停下。
The fee/spentgot down the carriagebecause of the viscount, was welcomedin the villaby a steward.
费因子爵下了马车,就被一位管家迎进了别墅中。Sees the fee/spentto enterin the hallbecause of the viscount, a Javierfaceflatteredto standafter the tablehastily, bowedto salute saying: „Respectablefee/spentbecause ofviscountSir, hereconditionis crude, hopes that do not mind.”
见费因子爵走进厅中,哈维尔连忙一脸谄媚地从桌案后站了起来,躬身行礼道:“尊敬的费因子爵大人,这里条件简陋,希望您不要介意。”
The fee/spentbeckons with the handbecause of the viscountat will, hints itselfnot to care, simultaneouslyarrives at the tableto sit down.
费因子爵随意地摆摆手,示意自己并不在意,同时来到桌边坐下。Javier, thislegendaryhalfelfmerchant, as if a thanklessretinue, serves teato pour waterbecause of the viscountto the fee/spentat this timeattentively.
哈维尔,这位传奇半精灵商人,此时仿佛一位任劳任怨的仆从,殷勤地给费因子爵端茶倒水。
The fee/spentis enjoyingall thesebecause of a viscountfacenaturally, in the mouthasked: „Javier, yournewsreallyaccurate? WhyColin is the Angelieenergyveryprobably full?”
费因子爵一脸理所当然地享受着这一切,口中问道:“哈维尔,你的消息真的准确吗?为什么柯林・安格列的底气好像很足啊?”Javierstandshands tiedin the one side, repliedrespectfully: „ViscountSir, Iwill certainly not lietoyou! As for the accuracy of news...... pleaseallow that Iaskedone, should youin the royal palace, not seemarquisVincenta moment ago?”
哈维尔束手侍立在一旁,恭恭敬敬地答道:“子爵大人,我当然不会对您撒谎!至于消息的准确性……请容许我问一句,您刚才在王宫,应该没有见到文森特侯爵吧?”„Trulyno.”
“确实没有。”„Thatwas right!”Javierclaps saying that „, ifmarquisVincentreallysafe and sound, ColinwhyAngeliedid not agree that makesyouseehim? North the attitude of boundaryCountas forthis, thatdefinitelyinstallsintentionally! Ifheat this timedisplaysweakly, how could it not be seen through the actual situationbyyou.”
“那就对了!”哈维尔一拍手道,“如果文森特侯爵真的安然无恙,柯林・安格列为什么不同意让您见他呢?至于这位北境伯爵的态度,那肯定是故意装出来的!他此时若表现出一点软弱,岂不就会被您看穿了虚实。”
The fee/spentsmilesbecause of the viscountimpartially, said: „Whatsignificance does hemakeandhaslike this? Even ifcame to an arrangementredeemed the condition, butdid not seesafe and soundmarquisVincent, oureasternboundarieswerenot possibleto giveColinanythingAngelie.”
费因子爵不置可否地笑了笑,道:“那他这样做又有什么意义呢?就算谈妥了赎回条件,但不见到安然无恙的文森特侯爵,我们东境是不可能将任何东西交给柯林・安格列的。”Javierthinks,is considering the say/way: „ Perhapshewantsto delay the time, ifafter allmakesDukeSt. Plossiknow that owneldest sondiedinhalfelfroyal palace, thatfeared the battleship of Pegasussailorsto arrive atoutside the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gatealongcrystal rivernow.
哈维尔想了想,斟酌着道:“或许他是想拖延时间吧,毕竟如果让圣普洛斯公爵知道自己的长子死在了半精灵王宫之中,那恐怕天马水军的战舰现在已经沿着水晶河开到银月城外了。But the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gatejustexperiencedchaos, the silver moonguardcasualtyis serious, isnorthBlood Cavalry Army of boundary, it is estimated that the losswill not be small, ColinAngeliedefinitelydoes not wantatthis timefacing the easternboundaryarmy.
而银月城刚刚经历了一场大乱,银月卫队死伤惨重,就是北境的血骑军,估计损失也绝不会小,柯林・安格列肯定不想在这个时候面对东境大军。Thereforehewill block off the flow of news, but alsodisplaysintentionallystronglybeforeyou, proposed that extremelyharshredeemingcondition, is to delay the timeas far as possible.
所以他才会封锁消息,还故意在您面前表现出强硬,提出极为苛刻的赎回条件,就是想要尽可能地拖延时间。Iguessed,perhapsnorththislittle while the army of boundaryhas startedto transfer, preparesto reinforce the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gateat any time.
我猜测,这会儿北境的军队恐怕已经开始调动了,随时准备增援银月城。When the northernboundaryarmyarrives in the silversemi-circular protective wall outside the main city gate, at that time, ColinAngelieestimated that will not block the death news of marquisVincentagain. ”
等到北境大军抵达银月城,那时候,柯林・安格列估计就不会再封锁文森特侯爵的死讯了。”
The fee/spentbecause of the viscountheard that the wordlookmoves, is lost in thought.
费因子爵闻言神色一动,陷入了沉思。Javiersaw that lowered the sound, persuadedagain: „ViscountSir, the presentis an once in a thousand yearsgoodtime! Ifmissed......”
哈维尔见状,压低了声音,再次劝说道:“子爵大人,现在可是一个千载难逢的绝佳时机啊!如果错过了……”„Are youteachingmeto work?” The fee/spentshot a look atJavieroneeyesbecause of the viscountvisiondensely.
“你在教我做事?”费因子爵目光森然地瞥了哈维尔一眼。InJavierheartonetight, waves the handto sayagain and again: „Sir, Iabsolutelydo not havethismeaning, absolutelydoes not have......”
哈维尔心中一紧,连连摇手道:“大人,我绝对没有这个意思,绝对没有……”
The fee/spentbecause ofviscountcoldsnort/humone, said: „Javier, warimportant matter, is not your youngsmall-scale merchantcanin additiondiscussabsurdly, laterspeechcarefully, otherwise, ahem!”
费因子爵冷哼一声,道:“哈维尔,战争这种大事,不是你一个小小商人能够妄加议论的,以后说话小心一点,不然,哼哼!”Javierputs on a long face, apologizedunceasingly, simultaneouslyexplained: „ ViscountSir, I am also becauseworried, spoke incorrectly the words! ThatColinAngeliewants the entirehalfelfbusiness circleto integrateduringhiscontrolwholeheartedly, makingus the puppetpartner in hishand!
哈维尔哭丧着脸,不断道歉,同时解释道:“子爵大人,我也是因为太着急了,才说错了话!那个柯林・安格列一心想要将整个半精灵商界纳入他的掌控之中,让我们都成为他手中的傀偶!Suchhumiliation, weare really unendurable!
这样的屈辱,我们实在难以忍受啊!Thereforemade an indiscreet remarkfor a while, pleasemustforgiveme! ”
所以才一时失言,请您一定要原谅我!”
The fee/spentbeckons with the handbecause of the viscount, said: „Ok, laterspeechlimelight. Howas for the easterndecision of boundaryinthis matter, is notyoucan the wild talk. Nowyouneedto do, only has a matter.”
费因子爵摆摆手,道:“好了,以后说话注意点。至于东境在此事上如何决策,不是你能够妄言的。现在你需要做的,只有一件事。”Javierspiritinspires, askedhastily: „Viscount, youinvited the instruction!”
哈维尔精神一振,连忙问道:“子爵,您请吩咐!”
The fee/spentflashesbecause of the viscountvision, sinkingsound said:
费因子爵目光闪动,沉声道:„Spares nothing, actuallyinvestigating thoroughlymarquisVincentis dead lives!”
“不惜一切代价,查清楚文森特侯爵究竟是死是活!”„Yes, Sir!”
“是,大人!”
