SpeciallyisoneselfestablishCollege of Magic? Onepile of importantgovernment positions? Feared that isn't the picturepie?
专门为自己成立的魔法学院?还有一堆重要官职?怕不是画大饼吧?Gelterexuded the whisperin the innermost feelings. Heis staring at presentthisKislevGreat Lordwith a suspicious look. However the latterseems like the meaning of nocracking a joke, a faceis proper.
盖尔特在内心泛起了嘀咕。他用怀疑的目光盯着眼前这位基斯里夫大领主。但是后者看上去毫无开玩笑的意思,一脸正经。Gelterfeelsorfeelscredibly, thenexploratorycontinuationdoes not ask——
盖尔特觉得还是觉得不靠谱,便试探性的继续问到——„RespectableGreat Lord, thankyoursincerityandthinking highly, howevermyidealin the Altdorfgoldschool, at least there, Icanattain the generouswage, equipmentandthing that varioustypes of research institutesneeded......”
“尊敬的大领主,感谢您的诚意与器重,但是我的理想在阿尔道夫黄金学院,至少在那里,我可以拿到丰厚的薪水,还有各种研究所需的器材和物件……”„Your excellency, how many do you wagehavein the goldenschoolevery month?”
“阁下,你在黄金学院每月薪水有多少?”Rodaskeddirectly.罗德直接问到。Geltershakes the head, ships outseveralpoints of embarrassedfacial expressionintentionally, finallyis frowning, slowlyspeaking of——
盖尔特摇了摇头,故意装出几分难堪的神情,最后才皱着眉头,缓缓说到——„Every monthtwohundredGold Crown.”
“每月两百金王冠。”„Ileavedouble!”
“我出双倍!”Does not wait forGelterto hesitate, Roddirectstraightforwardreading.
不等盖尔特犹豫,罗德直接豪爽的念到。ThismadeGelter'sbrowwrinkledeeply. In fact, oneselfhad reported the wagelevela moment ago, heactuallyonly has150Gold CrowninAltdorfgoldinstitute'seach monthwage. SinceKislevLordmustdig the person, oneselfonmulti-reportsome. Butnow, thisGreat Lordactuallyhas not bargained back and forth, raisedonetime the wagedirectly.
这让盖尔特的眉头皱得更深了。事实上,刚才自己已经多报了薪水水平,他在阿尔道夫黄金学院每月的薪水其实只有一百五十枚金王冠。既然基斯里夫的领主要挖人,自己就多报一些。而现在,这位大领主竟然一点都没有讨价还价,直接将薪水提了一倍。ButKislev and Empirehardwarestrengthis unable to compareeventually. Gelterissomewhathesitant. However, inthismomenthesitant, Great LordRodopened the mouth——
可是基斯里夫和帝国的硬件实力终究是无法相比的。盖尔特还是有些犹豫。然而,就在这片刻犹豫之间,大领主罗德又开口了——„Threetimes!”
“三倍!”Then, did Gelterhoodwink...... each monthsixhundredGold Crown? Thisenduredcompared withhaving the manorandprivateterritory the moon/monthincome of bigaristocrat. oneselfwhatvirtue what can? Was so thought highly by thisKislevman? Becausehow manywater pipescultivated/repaired?
这下,盖尔特蒙了……每月六百金王冠?这堪比拥有庄园和私人领地的大贵族的月收入了。自己何德何能?被这个基斯里夫佬如此器重?就因为修了几根水管?
A Gelterfacecompelsignorant. However, Rodstrikes while the iron is hot, makingnearbyAlvisbring the contractcopy clerk. Startedat the scene the revision.
盖尔特一脸懵逼。然而,罗德则趁热打铁,让一旁的阿尔维斯拿来合同文书。当场做起了修改。
The featherpenrustlemakes noise, the documentcontract that a moment later, will then improvehandedin front ofGelter.
羽毛笔沙沙作响,片刻之后,便将改好的文件合同递到了盖尔特面前。„Thisisamongus the contract, Ihireyouto becomemyprivate consultant, the Kislevimperial familySAEvice-chairman, the ErengradUrban Construction Departmentchief adviser, the heart of Magicschool principalKislevSaintsteel. Every monthpaysixhundredGold Crown, lasted three years.”
“这是我们之间的契约合同,我雇佣你成为我的私人顾问,基斯里夫皇家工程师协会副会长,厄仑格拉德城建部首席顾问,基斯里夫圣钢之心魔法学校校长。每月薪酬六百金王冠,为期三年。”Gelterlooks atmodel contract, is mystified. Today a day of bitter experiencemakeshimfeelas before the headis dumbstruck. Firststepped on the mildewto transportruns into the vagabondto question, was almost recognized. Latterismeets the interception of officialarmy, signing of Great Lord. Thenis the soastonishingreward and post.
盖尔特看着合同范本,一脸迷惑。今天一天的遭遇让他依旧感到脑袋发懵。先是踩了霉运遇到地痞盘查,差点被认出。后是遇到官方军队的拦截,大领主的签约。然后还是如此惊人的报酬和岗位。Gelterflexure the skull of oneself, somewhattook the featherpenhesitant.
盖尔特挠了挠自己的脑壳,有些犹豫的拿起了羽毛笔。ButRod is filled with joy. Threeyears of contract periodis the content of model for painting, however, in the contractfinally not most conspicuousplace, oneline of small character—— , if no peculiar circumstanceto happen, thiscontractautomaticsupplementary contract , to continue to become effective. Unilateralterminating an agreementmustundertake the correspondingcompensation.
而罗德则处于满心欢喜中。三年的合同期是范本的内容,然而,在合同最后最不显眼的地方,还有一行小字——如无特殊情况发生,本合同自动续约,持续生效。单方解约者必须承担相应赔偿。As forheart of MagicschoolthatSaintsteelis the Rodtemporaryname, Empirehas the goldenschool, is symbolizingnoble and wealth. The steeldoes not haveHuang Jinguito be heavy, butis more practical than the gold, is symbolizing the Kislevpragmatistspirit . Moreover, is also symbolizing the Kislevpersonsteelgenerallyunyieldingwill.
至于那个圣钢之心魔法学校则是罗德临时起的名字,帝国有黄金学院,象征着高贵与财富。钢铁没有黄金贵重,但却比黄金实用,象征着基斯里夫的实用主义精神,另外,也象征着基斯里夫人钢铁一般不屈的意志。Geltersimplydoes not haveto pay attention tothatCollege of Magicname, withoutpays attention tothata series ofofficerposition and title, butis staring atwagerewardthatcolumn, the hesitantmoment, thensigned the oneselfnamein the contract.
盖尔特根本没有去注意那个魔法学院的名字,也没去注意那一连串的官位和头衔,只是盯着薪水报酬那一栏,犹豫片刻,便在合同上签下了自己的名字。ButRodcaused a meaningful glancetoAlvis. The latterunderstandsimmediately, arrives in the insurance pool, puts outonebag of gold coinsdirectly, handedin front ofGelter. The quantityhas300trueOld WorldgeneralGold Crowncurrencies.
而罗德则对阿尔维斯使了一个眼色。后者当即心领神会,走到保险金库里,直接拿出一袋金币,递到了盖尔特面前。数量足足有三百枚成色十足的旧大陆通用金王冠货币。Sees the gold coin, Gelter'scomplexionhas changed for the better, the brow of tightwrinklealsoloosened.
看到金币,盖尔特的脸色有所好转,紧皱的眉头也松开了一些。Twodayslater, Erengrad, in the municipalofficerofficial mansion, Alvisis carrying the red wine, facesatisfiedsittingon the sofa, looks atGelterlowers the head the readingofficial documents. ThatissomeKislevcurrentlaws and administrativeguiding principles. Regarding the Kislevlocal areaofficial, has been ableto know by heart. HoweverregardingGeltersuchoutcomer, needssome timefamiliar, after all, presentKislevandmore than tenyears ago Kislev, were it may be said that widely divergent. The regulationchangedmuch, the administrativeguiding principleisnew, thistype of thingcannot even see a shadowinEmpire.
两天后,厄仑格拉德,市政官官邸内,阿尔维斯正端着红酒,一脸惬意的坐在沙发上,看着盖尔特低头阅读公文。那都是一些基斯里夫的现有法律和行政纲领。对于基斯里夫本地官员来说,已经可以倒背如流。但是对于盖尔特这样的外来者来说,还是需要一段时间来熟悉,毕竟,现在的基斯里夫和十几年前的基斯里夫,可谓大相径庭了。律法都更改了不少,行政纲领更是新出的,这种东西在帝国甚至看不到一点影子。Gelterdoes not wantto look atthese, helplessRodgavehimto settleonepile of government positions, did not understand that was not good.
盖尔特并不想看这些,但是无奈罗德给他安了一堆官职,不了解也不行。„Firstdo not look, come, the restrelaxes. Thesethingsin one single daycannotremember. Ibelievewhatyourabilityare moreisonMagic, rather thanontheseannoyingpoliticalpolicies.”
“先别看了,来,休息放松一下。这些东西不是一朝一夕可以记下来的。我相信你的能力更多的是在魔法上面,而不是在这些烦人的政治政策上面。”Alvisis saying, makesmovement that toastedto cheer.阿尔维斯说着,做出了一个敬酒干杯的动作。Gelterhasto forgivesomething extra, sets outwith the office chairon, before arriving at the sofa, sits down.
盖尔特只好饶了饶头,用办公椅上起身,来到沙发前坐下。„Somewhatis really not as I expected, thisadministrativeguiding principlewas too simple, but also contained the toomulti-information. Yourlawalsochangedmuch, South and NorthLorddistinguishesto treatunexpectedly, isstrange.”
“实在有些出乎我的意料,这份行政纲领太简单了,但是同时又蕴含了太多信息。你的法律也改了不少,南北方领主竟然区别对待,也是奇怪。”Gelteris saying, receivedciderdrink that Alvishanded over.
盖尔特说着,接过了阿尔维斯递来的苹果汁饮料。„Thismust the matter of North and South WarbeforeKislevmention, nowlooked like is also the history. However, mustunderstand that now the KislevSouth and NorthLorddifferencetreats, actually since has tostartto sayfromthatphase of history.”
“这要从基斯里夫之前发生的南北战争之事说起,现在看来也算是历史了。不过,要理解如今基斯里夫南北方领主区别对待,却不得不从那段历史开始讲起。”Alvisis saying, swallowedwine in cup.阿尔维斯说着,咽了一口杯中的葡萄酒。„Youshouldknow the stories of someKislevcivil warsprobably. 11years ago, KislevorbloodQueenKatarinis ruling, at that time, the Greenskinarmycamefrommountain rangeanotherendinvasion, bloodyKatarinblockedGreenskinto marchKislevwith the snowstorm, actuallylostentireNorthtoGreenskin, makingthemrun its own course. Lord RodleadsnorthernvariousLord dead to fightGreenskinin the hopeless situation, finally, oneselfrisks neck, GreenskinLeaderGrimgorIronhidecoursesTroll Mountains, resolves the Northcrisis.”
“你应该大概知道一些基斯里夫内战的故事。十一年前,基斯里夫还是鲜血女王卡特琳娜统治着,那时候,绿皮大军从山脉另一端入侵而来,血腥的卡特琳娜用暴风雪挡住绿皮进军基斯里夫城,却将整个北境丢给了绿皮,让他们自生自灭。罗德领主在绝境中带领北方诸领主死战绿皮,最终,自己冒着生命危险,将绿皮首领格里姆格・铁皮引向巨魔山脉,解除北境危机。”„From then on, NorthvariousLordsupportRodisKing of the North, revolts againstKatarinpublicly. The Kislevnorth-southcivil warbegins.”
“从那以后,北境诸领主拥护罗德为北境之王,公开反抗卡特琳娜。基斯里夫南北内战拉开序幕。”„Inthiswar, southLordsmostlysupportsKatarin, because the Katarincommitment of Queendonatedsouthat that timeafter the war these northernlandLord, andmakesthemhave the privilegeatcertainbusiness. The place of rich and populoussouthcontinuousprovides the manpower resources and commoditytoKatarin, making the situation of Northallied armiesverydifficult. The warcontinued for threeyears, finally, Rodled the Northallied armiesto killundercapitalKislev, andin an imperial palacewar, killedVampireQueen.”
“在这场战争中,南方领主们大多支持卡特琳娜,因为当时还是女王的卡特琳娜承诺战后将北方的土地赠予这些南方领主,并且让他们在某些事务上拥有特权。富庶的南方之地源源不断的给卡特琳娜提供兵源和物资,使得北境联军的处境十分艰难。战争持续了三年,最终,罗德带领北境联军一路杀到了首都基斯里夫城下,并且在皇宫一战中,杀死了吸血鬼女王。”„After the war, allsouthernLordobtained the penalty. However, the solepenaltyis insufficient. Rodrequeststhemto return the military power, severalfull powersupportedKatarinsouthernLordto be imprisonedinitiallylifelong, othersouthernLordwere requestedto disarm. Onlyleaves behinda small number ofprivateguardsto protect the territory and Lordsecurity. As the compensation, southLord and aristocratscanenjoycertainsuperiorjurisdictionin the trade area. But the northernfeudal lords, enjoy the military authorityto retainby the stance of victorandsupporter. HoweveronceKing of the North asked that mustfull powersupport. Thisis the origin of thisseeminglyunequal treaty, over the past few years, the South and Northwere distinguishedto treatalsolive in peace with each otherbut actually, has not begun any bigconflict. SouthernLordsdisdains is a companionwithnorthernLord, thinks that theyare uncouthly, butisonecrowd with the nouveau riches of class. ButnorthernLordtakes advantage of the military power, similarlydisregardssouthernLord and aristocrats. Butdoes not have the directconflicts of interest, thereforeboth sidesduringseveralyearsagainnotlarge-scalebattle. In additionat that time the queen, isaboutQueenDanniscompromisesnow, divertsboth sides, thereforefor several years, the KislevSouth and Northactually are also relativelystablegentle.”
“战后,所有南方领主都得到了惩罚。然而,单单惩罚是不够的。罗德要求他们退还兵权,几个当初全力支持卡特琳娜的南方领主被终身囚禁,其余南方领主被要求解除武装。只留下少数私人卫队保护领地和领主的安全。作为补偿,南方领主和贵族们可以在贸易领域享有一定的优势权限。而北方诸侯们,则以胜利者和拥护者的姿态享有军权保留。不过一旦北境之王有求,必须全力支持。这就是这份看起来不平等条约的由来,几年来,南北方被区别对待倒也相安无事,没有再起什么大冲突。南方领主们不屑于与北方领主为伍,认为他们粗鲁野蛮,不过是一群跟对班的暴发户而已。而北方领主依仗兵权,同样无视南方的领主和贵族们。只不过没有直接的利益冲突,所以双方几年间再无大规模争斗。加上当时还是王后,现在已是女王的丹尼斯左右调和,牵制双方,所以数年来,基斯里夫南北方却也是相对稳定平和。”Alvisspoke ofslowly. NearbyGelteronlythought that oneselfis listening to the historicalbiographyto be the samelikely, hearswith great interest, is much more interesting than thesearidofficial documents.阿尔维斯缓缓说到。一旁的盖尔特只觉得自己像在听历史传记一般,听得津津有味,比那些枯燥的公文有趣得多。
