The Empire control arms trade, the exit|to speak was short, thus causes the firearm price to rise, but is insufficient the original three times of prices, these are that Baker that new municipal administration officer is certainly being up to mischief. After smuggling business Joysen there return, Rod had known the situation basically. No wonder Ironclaw will fly back without any results, Rod knows, in this case, cannot blame him. 帝国控制军火贸易,出口少了,从而导致火器价格上涨,但是不至于到原来的三倍价格,这其中一定是那个贝克城那个新任市政官在搞鬼。从走私商乔伊森那里归来后,罗德已经基本了解了情况。难怪铁爪会无功而返,罗德知道,在这种情况下,不能怪他。 However, since came, goes to one, tries one's luck, Rod thought...... 但是,既然来了,还是去一趟吧,碰碰运气,罗德心想…… Next morning, Rod then takes Caroline, Lawrence and Sart goes to the Baker municipal official mansion. Caroline dresses up the aristocrat young lady, presents...... her as Rod cousin is the aristocrat, on the etiquette and makings does not certainly need to teach. Also will not leak the flaw. Lawrence appears from the status by Rod retinue, as for Sart, enters the stage by the image of mercenary. These roles and their status, although is different, because experiences similarly, several people can very good deductive respective role. 翌日清晨,罗德便带上卡洛琳、劳伦斯和塞尔塔前往贝克城的市政官邸。卡洛琳打扮成贵族小姐,以罗德表妹的身份出现……当然她原本就是贵族,礼仪和气质上面无需多教。也不会漏破绽。劳伦斯则以罗德的扈从身份出现,至于塞尔塔,则以雇佣兵的形象出场。这些角色和他们的身份虽然都不尽相同,但是由于经历相似,几个人都可以很好的演绎各自的角色。 Before stepping into municipal official mansion, Sart then aware receives the weapon, stands in out of the door. As the mercenary, he does not have the power to enter in this building. But Lawrence and Caroline walked justifiablily. 在踏进市政官邸前,塞尔塔便自觉的收起武器,站在门外。作为雇佣兵,他没有权力进入这幢建筑里。而劳伦斯和卡洛琳则名正言顺的走了进去。 Different with other Lord castles, Baker is a port city, therefore, its administrative official mansion looks looks like the villa mansion, rather than gloomy castle, fort. 和其他领主的城堡不一样,贝克城是一座海港城市,因此,它的行政官邸看起来更像别墅豪宅,而不是阴郁的城堡,要塞。 From decorating the front door of bull statue is going, has the administrative personnel to come and go all the way, occasionally on two face clean aristocrat or bachelor to Rod one line of nod smiles, but most people are good the step in a hurry, has not paid attention to several other place. Across a garden winding corridor, Rod and Caroline and Lawrence went to a hall. The servant of municipal officer hints them to wait here, he informs. 从装饰着公牛雕像的大门进去,一路上都有行政人员来来往往,偶尔会有一两个脸上干净的贵族或者学士向罗德一行人点头微笑,但是大部分人都行步匆匆,没有理会几个外乡者。穿过一个花园回廊,罗德和卡洛琳、劳伦斯来到了一座大厅内。市政官的仆人示意他们在此等候,他去通知。 „Kislev North protector, Blackhammer Fort Great Lord Rod?” “基斯里夫北境守护者,黑锤堡大领主罗德？” Waits for Municipal Head to see right in front of one, the person who a rich merchant dresses up sat in the Rod opposite, and with it „enthusiasm” conversation. 等候市政长面见的时候,一位富商打扮的人坐在了罗德的对面,并与之“热情”的交谈了起来。 „North protector? Oh, no, has not reached such altitude, the North protector is a group, is not individual. South of Wall all castle Lord are the person in this group. I cannot represent completely. As for Great Lord, does not calculate, is only Lord.” “北境守护者？噢,不,还没达到那样的高度,北境守护者是一个团体,不是个人。长城以南的所有城堡领主都是这个团体里的人。我不能代表全部。至于大领主,也不算,只是领主。” Rod smiles to answer. 罗德微笑着答到。 „Under, introduced oneself, I called Tours Renn. Baker biggest salt merchant, jeweller. At the beginning of this urban construction, my family then made a living here. Baker Port is a prosperous harbor, through the city that this harbor develops is also a bountiful city, my tour to your Empire has the simple understanding. Only can say, purchases the commodity, you came to the place.” “哦,自我介绍下,我叫图尔斯.雷恩。贝克城最大的盐商,珠宝商。这座城市建设之初,我的家族便在这里谋生了。贝克港是一座繁荣的港口,通过这个港口发展起来的城市也是一座富饶的城市,我对你们的帝国之行有简单的了解。只能说,采购物资,你们来对地方了。” This merchant named Tours spoke of warmly. This lets Caroline and Lawrence is quite surprised, all the way, they meet, is some thinks oneself infallible, arrogant fellow, but this mister seems like some enthusiasms to be excessive. 这位名叫图尔斯的商人热情的说到。这让卡洛琳和劳伦斯感到很意外,一路上,他们遇到的,都是一些自以为是,高傲的家伙,而这位先生看起来却有些热情过了头。 Naturally, Rod is not surprised, all merchants take seriously the interests, the benefit is the root that they pursue, is the only power. Before oneself comes, then had expressed the goal of this meeting to City Lord, side Municipal Head also many well-informed people. But the association to the words that former Joysen spoke, Rod suspected that this merchant estimate named Tours was also like him, was not familiar with the new official, wants to climb the relations, recognized „adoptive father”. To his „biggest” the title, Rod feels the suspicion. 当然,罗德却不感到意外,所有商人都是重视利益的,利益是他们追求的根源,也是唯一的动力。自己进来之前便已经向城主表达了此次会见的目的,想必市政长身边也不乏消息灵通的人。而联想到之前乔伊森所说的话,罗德猜想这位名叫图尔斯的商人估计也是和他一样,对新来的官员并不熟悉,想攀关系,认“干爹”。只是对他那“最大”的称号,罗德倍感怀疑。 „Un, this indeed is a prosperous city, compares in North, here is a place that suits the life.” “嗯,这的确是一座繁荣的城市,相比于北境,这里是一个适合生活的地方。” Rod polite answering. 罗德礼貌性的答到。 „Heard you just in the north did stall an attack of wave of Beastman?” “听说你们刚刚在北方挡住了一波野兽人的进攻？” Tours is seeking for the topic, his eyeball like the mouse general, is rotating rapidly, is observing the Rod side person. 图尔斯寻找着话题,他的眼珠子就像老鼠一般,飞速的转动着,观察着罗德身边的人。 „Yes, are many, since dozens years largest Beastman Unit.” “是的,非常多,几十年以来最大规模的野兽人部队。” Rod answered. This chapter of Caroline but is actually honest, she has not interposed, in one side static listening. Displays the aristocrat woman to have the appearance that. 罗德答到。这回卡洛琳倒算是老实,她没有插话,就在一旁静静的听。表现出贵族女人该有的样子。 „How many?” “多少？” „Several hundreds, are possibly more.” “数百,可能更多。” „That indeed is a disaster.” Tours spoke, „you defended the castle, seemed like has certain strength.” “那的确是一场灾难。”图尔斯说到,“不过你们守住了城堡,看起来还是有一定实力的。” „Also insufficiently, in front of various Bovigor and Werewolf, human as before seems so small and weak, therefore I need to purchase a number of commodities.” “还不够,在各种大角兽和狼人面前,人类依旧显得如此弱小,所以我需要采购一批物资。” Rod answered. 罗德答到。 „Un, I know. I am engaged in the trade industry. Has certain understanding of regional demands.” “嗯,我知道。我就是从事贸易行业的。对各地的需求都有一定的了解。” Tours is smiling speaking. 图尔斯微笑着说到。 „But you may probably have the preparation, Municipal Head Clyde is a busy person, he just arrived here to take office in the winter of last year, the person who every day must see right in front of one may probably go, the temperament, some are not quite possibly good.” “但是你们可要有心理准备,市政长克莱德可是一个大忙人,他去年冬天刚到这里上任,每天要面见的人可多得去了,脾气么,可能也有些不太好。” He collects to speak on the quiet. 他凑过来悄悄说到。 „I have been mentally prepared.” “我已经做好心理准备了。” Rod smiles to reply. 罗德微笑着回答到。 „That is good. However, as far as I know, wants to ask him to discuss that recently the person of matter may be many . Moreover, just like you, mostly for the matter of munitions.” “那就好。不过,据我所知,最近想找他谈事的人可多了,而且,和你们一样,大多是为了军火的事。” He said low voice, Rod instinct can feel that this fellow should have the matter to with oneself discuss, otherwise, will not approach oneself with no reason at all. 他说得更小声了,罗德本能的可以感觉到这家伙应该有事要和自己谈,否则,不会无缘无故靠近自己。 „, Did they succeed?” “那么,他们成功了吗？” Rod asked intentionally. 罗德故意问到。 „Did you say?” “你说呢？” The corners of the mouth of Tours raise a mysterious smile. 图尔斯的嘴角扬起一丝神秘的微笑。 „Could not guess correctly.” “猜不到。” „I told you, most of them have not succeeded.” Tours spoke. “那我来告诉你吧,他们大多数都没成功。”图尔斯说到。 Before long, he moves some, by Rod, in a low voice speaking of: „I can, I be able to help you get so far as these things.” 不一会儿,他挪过来一些,挨着罗德,低声说到:“不过我可以,我可以帮你们弄到那些东西。” He suffers very nearly, Rod can smell the thick perfume that on him sends out, the man spreads the perfume, this is Rod is most repugnant, however in others' domain, Rod endured. 他挨得很近,罗德可以闻到他身上散发出来的浓浓香水味,男人涂香水,这是罗德最反感的,但是在别人的地盘,罗德忍了。 „Price can discuss, but is lower than Municipal Senior Official absolutely to your price.” “价格可以谈,但绝对是低于市政长官给你们的价格。” „Hehe, how many?” “呵呵,多少？” Rod is smiling, asked in a low voice. 罗德笑着,低声问到。 Tours raises the arm quietly, in the large palm stretches out two hand fingers, „two times.” He spoke. 图尔斯悄悄举起手臂,肥大的手掌里伸出两根手指头,“两倍。”他说到。 In this time, that servant who went in a moment ago is walking from the office of municipal officer, arrived at side Rod. 正在这时,刚才进去的那个仆人从市政官的办公室里走了出来,走到了罗德身旁。 „Sir Lord, you can go, sorry, making you wait for a long time.” “领主大人,您可以进去了,抱歉,让您久等了。” Speaking of his politeness. Immediately gave a hand signal of invitation. 他礼貌的说到。随即做了一个请的手势。 Tours sees that put out a prepared paper hastily, the stopper to Rod. „We relate again.” He spoke in a low voice, immediately got out of the way with a laugh. Stays behind expression that Lawrence and a Caroline face compels ignorant. 图尔斯见状,连忙拿出一张事先准备好的纸条,塞到了罗德手里。“我们再联系。”他低声说到,随即笑呵呵的走开了。留下劳伦斯和卡洛琳一脸懵逼的表情。
