„Mr.Lynch, wehad waited there for some time, pleasecome.”, The presidents of chamber of commerce, although the complexionis not quite attractive, maymake the invitation.
“林奇先生,我们已经恭候多时了,请进来吧。”,商会的会长虽然脸色不太好看,可还是做出了邀请。Lynchlooked atall aroundat a moderate pace, hepulled outonepacket of cigarettesfrom the pocket, takes uponeto hold in the mouthin the mouth.林奇不紧不慢的看了看四周,他从口袋里掏出了一盒烟,拿起一根叼在口中。„”, Assistantis delimiting the matches, is covering, gathered the Lynchfront.
“哧”的一声,身边的助手划着了火柴,一手遮挡着,凑到了林奇的面前。Under the gentlelight, the face of Lynchactuallycoveredredluminousunder the flame of matches, luminouslythiscomesrapidfierce, the flashhas coveredluminous of light bulb.
柔和的灯光下,林奇的面孔却在火柴的火光下蒙上了一层红色的光亮,这光亮来的迅烈,一瞬间就盖过了灯泡的光亮。Heattractedtwovery muchat will, puts outsmog, „Ido not cover a native of Flat......”
他很随意的吸了两口,吐出一口烟雾,“我不是盖弗拉人……”
The association presidentturned the headto looktothatsign, flew into a rage, „whowasplacesthisthinghere, hasn't taken awayit?”
会长一转头看向了那个牌子,紧接着勃然大怒,“是谁把这个东西摆放在这里的,还不把它拿走?”Saying, hisgoing downstairdirectly, stoodin the Lynchfront, „was sorryvery much,Mr.Lynch, ourworkseeminglyhadsomemistakes, Iapologizedfor this reason.”
说着,他径直的走下台阶,站在了林奇的面前,“很抱歉,林奇先生,我们的工作看起来有一些失误,我为此道歉。”„Butpleasebelieve,thisabsolutelyis notourbehaviorsdesirably......”
“但请你相信,这绝对不是我们刻意的行为……”
The association presidentwent down the stair, others are not quite suitableto standon the stair, even ifthisstair is not actually high.
会长都走下了台阶,其他人也不太适合站在台阶上,哪怕这个台阶其实并不怎么高。Fromoverlooking, tousually, the presentwas overlookedbyothersfaintly, thesemerchant'smoodchangesespeciallyinteresting.
从俯视,到平时,以至于现在隐隐被别人俯视,这些商人本的情绪变化格外的有趣。„Ialsobelieve that thiscertainlyis a misunderstanding!”, Lynchput out a handto graspgraspingwith the chairmen of the chamber of commerce, after two peopledealt withtwomutually, underchairman of the chamber of commerce'sleadership, Lynchstepped the stairfinally.
“我也相信这一定是一个误会!”,林奇伸手和商会会长握了握,两人互相应付了两句后,在商会会长的带领下,林奇终于踏上了台阶。Invision that inpeopleare hardto speak, heenteredthishouse.
在人们难以言说的目光中,他进入了这栋房子。Thesemerchantseach otherlooked at each othertwoat this time, unemotionalfollowed, tonight to greetLynchconvenes.
这些商人此时彼此对视了两眼,面无表情的跟着了上去,今天晚上的这场就会就是为了迎接林奇而召开的。Compared with the merchants of otherfederations, Lynchhas a naturalspecialattribute- heisFrat'sBaron, is the empirearistocrat.
比起其他联邦的商人,林奇有一层天然的特别属性-他是盖弗拉的男爵,是帝国贵族。Howeverthisis only the mouth of emperorseals, did not have the truerealityto seal, variousceremonieshave not been held.
不过这只是皇帝的口封,还没有真正的实封,各种仪式都还没有举行。InFrat, confers the aristocratoftenin the autumn, autumnis symbolizing the season of harvest, harvestcanbe the grain, canbe the titleas well asmore not concretethings.
在盖弗拉,册封贵族往往会在秋天进行,秋天象征着丰收的季节,丰收的可以是粮食,也能是爵位以及更多不具体的东西。In additionin the ancient times, after conferring rank and title, mustdial a stroke of territory, ifconferring rank and title the timeplaced the spring, maymiss the spring sowingvery much.
加上在古代,册封之后就要拨划领地,如果把册封的时间放在春天,很有可能会错过春播。Ifplaces the summer, the owner of thatlandwill be discontented, whoknows that in the summerwill passautumnwill arrive, at this timedialedto assignthisplacetoothers, six monthswasted.
如果放在夏天,原本那块土地的拥有者就会不满,谁都知道夏季过去秋天就会到来,这个时候把这块地拨划给别人,半年时间都白费了。Conferred rank and titleafter the fall harvestwas different, not onlythere areinvarioussymbols the happysignificance, simultaneously the wheat on landalsoalmostharvested, at this timearranged the place that the newfeudal lordtook up an official postto have noto wrangle.
在秋收后册封就不同了,不仅有各种象征上美好的意义,同时土地上的麦子也差不多收割完毕,这个时候安排新的领主走马上任没有什么好扯皮的地方。Simultaneously the newfeudal lord can also organization'snewsowing seedsplan, probablyknow that as soon as possiblein the feudal lordfiefdomperiod, the seed of sowing seedsalso came from the feudal lord.
同时新的领主也能够尽快的组织新的播种计划,要知道在领主采邑时期,播种的种子也是来自于领主。Thereforevarioussynthesisreasons, confer rank and titlewill holdafter the fall harvestgenerally, and under determines the power and boundarybefore winter.
所以综合各种原因,册封一般都会在秋收后举行,并且在冬天到来之前确定下权力和界限。
The historydevelopsstep by steptoday, inFratempiredoes not havein the true sense„fiefdom”, the aristocratsdid not haveoneselfterritory, butmanycustomsretained.
历史一步步发展到今天,盖弗拉帝国内已经没有了真正意义上的“采邑”,贵族们也没有了自己的领地,不过很多习俗都保留了下来。Noworin the summer, Lynch can only say that is„would-beBaron”, so long as a daysolidhas not sealed, hecannot be completely the aristocrat in empire.
现在还是夏天,林奇只能说是“准男爵”,只要一天没有实封,他就一点不能完全算是帝国的贵族。Butthis is also the merchantsdares to givehisembarrassedreason, in addition the back of thesemerchants are also the every large or smallaristocrats, the relationsinempireare intriguing, is notone„the federationaristocrat”canmakewith easebut actually.
而这也是商人们敢于想要给他难堪的原因,加上这些商人的背后也都是大大小小的贵族,他们在帝国内的关系错综复杂,不是一个“联邦籍贵族”可以轻松弄倒的。
The nexteveryoneis more or less clear, Lynchthearistocrat is not so goodto work as.
其次大家或多或少都清楚一点,林奇的这个贵族并不是那么好当的。
A foreigneris cannozed as the aristocratis a verystrangematter, unavoidablywill not makemore, moreoverthis that peoplethinkwasemperorrequestedafterward, was notsomediplomaticproduct, peoplehad room forimagination.
一个外国人被册封为贵族本身就是一件很奇怪的事情,难免不会让人想的更多,而且这还是后来皇帝自己要求的,并非是某种外交的产物,人们就有了更多想象的空间。Thishouseis notspeciallyluxurious, becausethisis the local construction, after does not cover a native of Flatcame, to build, theychosesomeappropriatehouseusesas far as possible, othernottooappropriategave the garrisonhousing.
这栋房子并不是特别的豪华,因为这是本地建筑,不是盖弗拉人来了之后盖起来的,他们尽量的挑选了一些合适的房子使用,其他一些不太合适的则给了驻军居住。Although the houseis not luxurious, butafterwardtheirandrepaired, seems like.
虽然房子本身不豪华,不过后来他们的又装修了一遍,看起来好很多。Underchairman of the chamber of commerce'sleadership, Lynchpassed through a corridor, went to a hall.
在商会会长的带领下,林奇穿过了一条走廊,来到了一处大厅中。As the right foot of Lynchsteps into that flash of hall, has prepared the goodconductorto raise the music director stickfiercely, the slightlycheerfulmusic movementstartsto resoundinstantaneously.
随着林奇的右脚踏入大厅的那一瞬间,早已经准备好的指挥家猛地提起了指挥棒,略显欢快的乐章瞬间开始响起。As the musical soundresoundsat the same time, the entirehall seemed thorough„living”.
随着音乐声响起的同时,整个大厅仿佛彻底“活”了过来。Messengersunceasingplacesonplates of food the table, someladieswear the fineevening dressto enter the stadiumin the accompaniment of music, thistypeis a verynovelexperience.
使者们不断的把一盘盘食物放在桌子上,一些女士们穿着精致的晚礼服在音乐的伴奏中入场,这种是一种很新奇的体验。Obviouslythisis an ordinarycocktail party, mayactuallybe ableto makepeoplefeel the difference of itandfederalcocktail partyinthis moment.
明明这就是一场普通的酒会,可却能够让人在这一刻感觉到它和联邦酒会的不同。Hereallhad the rule, was too orderly, from the performance of orchestrato the admission of aideto the admission of female guest, theyhadsetto be the flow of ruleagain, notlikecocktail partysuchoptional of federation.
这里的一切都太有规则了,太有秩序了,从乐队的演奏到侍从的入场再到女宾的入场,它们有一整套属于自己规则的流程,不像联邦的酒会那么的随意。Butthisalsoexactlyistwonationalcultural differencebiggestplaces, a hierarchical systemis stern, a freedomis brilliant.
而这也恰恰是两个国家文化差异最大的地方,一个等级制度森严,一个自由烂漫。„Iintroducedforeveryone......”, the chairmen of the chamber of commercestoodin the crowd, thesehave not welcomedintroducesLynchfor the gentlemen and ladies, „stoodin of myside is the empirenewpromotearistocrat, Baronfromfederation, Mr.Lynch......”
“我为大家介绍一下……”,商会会长站在人群中,为那些没有迎出去的先生和女士们介绍林奇,“站在我身边的这位便是帝国新晋贵族,来自联邦的男爵阁下,林奇先生……”Thishis motherwhatandwhat?!
这都他妈什么和什么?!Lynchdoes not believe that such bigpersonwill not say the words, veryobviousthisishedesirablyforit, hedoes not haveto counter-attackimmediately, butverypoliteandeveryonegreetedthrough the look and nod.林奇不相信这么大的人了连话都不会说,很显然的这就是他刻意为之,他没有立刻反击,而是很有礼貌的通过眼神与点头和大家打招呼。„Mr.Lynch, saidanythingforus!”, The chairmen of the chamber of commercesmilinglyvisithim, thisobviously is also the goodway of feeling embarrassedLynch.
“林奇先生,为我们说点什么吧!”,商会会长笑眯眯的看着他,这显然也是一个为难林奇的好办法。Theydo not believe that Lynchtolooks liketreatsNagatLeirsuch that securebeautifulSyriais familiar, hedoes not even have the friendhere.
他们不相信林奇对安美利亚熟悉的就像是对待纳加利尔那样,他甚至在这里都没有朋友。Inthissituation, the surroundingscover a native of Flat, only thenin a situation of hisfederationperson, what will a personsay?
在这种场合下,周围都是盖弗拉人,只有他一个联邦人的情况下,一个人会说点什么?Will roughly say that caters to the scene the words, caters tomost people'swords, so long asLynch said that helost.
大致会说一些迎合场面的话,迎合大多数人的话,只要林奇说了,那他就输了。Looks that the chamber of commercewill keep eyes open the wave light that glitters, Lynchhas understood the meaning of opposite party, thisis not the plot, thisis the open intrigue.
看着商会会长眼中闪烁的波光,林奇已经明白了对方的意思,这不是阴谋,这是阳谋。Even ifyouknow that thesethingshave the issue, is still avoidless, is unable to decline.
即便你知道这些事情是有问题的,也无法避免,无法回绝。Lynchlooks atthesepeople, asking of faint smile, „what should Isay?”林奇看着这些人,似笑非笑的问道,“我该说点什么?”Does not wait for the chairmen of the chamber of commerceto replyhim, he said that „Idid not determine that Ishouldsayanything, Iam not a falseperson, Inotforcertaingoalswill changeoneselforiginal intention and standpointcater toothers.”
不等商会会长回答他,他就自顾自的说了起来,“我不确定我该说点什么,我不是一个虚伪的人,我不会为了某些目的改变自己的初衷和立场去迎合别人。”„Iknow that youdo not likeme, is not only I, youdo not like the federalperson and federation, becausewejustmadeone‚unforgivable’matter.”
“我知道你们不喜欢我,不仅仅是我,你们也不喜欢联邦人和联邦,因为我们刚刚才做了一件‘不可饶恕’的事情。”„Howevernow, Imustcome tohere, makessimilaroneunforgivable ’ alsoto have no matter of wayin your opinion ‚!”
“而现在,我又要来这里,做同样一件在你们看来‘不可饶恕’却又没有任何应对办法的事情!”Earth-shaking, without hesitationtears the falsemask, looksstunnedthese, surprised, is not quick, is inwardly angry, the stupidface, Lynchwill not feel the regretforthesewords that oneselfspokea moment ago, nearhiscorners of the mouthis also curling upwardsslightly.
石破天惊,毫不犹豫的把虚伪的面罩撕扯下来,看着那些愕然的,惊讶的,不快的,愠怒的,痴呆的脸,林奇一点也不会为自己刚才说的那些话感觉到后悔,他嘴角边还微微翘着。Even ifhesaid that someof pleasant to hear, caters tothesepeople, will thesepeopleadmithim?
即便他说些好听的,去迎合这些人,这些人就会接纳他吗?No, repel that theywill not only uniteabsolutelyhe, sincedisparagesachievementothers unable satisfiedlytheseto change the standpoint, why canput in great inconvenience to itself?
不,绝对不会,他们只会更加团结的排斥他,既然贬低自己成就别人也无法满足让这些人改变立场,那么为什么要委屈自己?No matterhesaidwhat some are of pleasant to hearwassaid that somewere not of pleasant to hear, thesepeoplewill aim athim, thendo not cover up.
不管是他说些好听的还是说些不好听的,这些人都会针对他,那么就不要遮遮掩掩。Heused„unforgivable”thiswordinthese words, thiswordstems from the mouth of EmperorFrat, afterheknowsownfleethitalmostallextinguishes, thisisheinroaring that in the rulermain hallsends out, is unforgivable!
他在这段话里用了“不可饶恕”这个词,这个词出自于盖弗拉皇帝之口,当他知道自己的舰队被打的差点全灭之后,这就是他在统治者大殿上发出的咆哮,不可饶恕!Lynchwithout hesitationtoldtheseperson to be ableto present the reasonherewiththisword, similarlyusedthisword, toldherepersonhimto be goingto makeanything.林奇毫不犹豫的用这个词来告诉这些人自己能出现在这里的原因,同样还是用了这个词,告诉了这里的人他将要做什么。Hemustrob the profitfrom the pockets of thesepeople, tothesemerchants, thisindeedis„unforgivable”matter!
他要从这些人的口袋里抢夺利润,对这些商人们来说,这的确是“不可饶恕”的事情!Withoutcurrying favor of discard headclose tobrain, only thenopens firedirectly.
没有虚头巴脑的曲意迎合,只有正面开火。
The music in hall, because the Lynchwordsappeared were not so that easyor getting out of tune made one detect.
就连大厅里的音乐,都因为林奇的话出现了不那么容易让人察觉的走调。Hestandsinten thousandnumerouscenter, besideshe himself, the place of seeing is „enemy”, buthethatself-confident, calm, hebringssmiling, looks at others, fewpersoncanlook at each otherlong timewithhim, mostlyflickersor for a halfsecond, moved out of the waythatto be full of the offensivelook.
他站在万众中央,除了他自己外,入目之处皆是“敌人”,可他就是那么的自信,从容,他带着笑,看着其他人,少有人能和他对视很长时间,大多只是一瞬或者半秒,就挪开了那充满了攻击性的眼神。„Mr.Lynch......”, the chairmen of the chamber of commercesomewhatfeel helpless, hethinks that Lynchwill saycaters toeveryone'spolite speech, for examplehopes that everyonebecomes richtogetherand so on.
“林奇先生……”,商会会长有些不知所措,他本以为林奇会说些迎合大家的场面话,比如说希望大家共同致富之类的。Hedid not knowabouthereafter all,saidblurred the words of boundaryalsoto be reasonable, thesewordswill then spread, underperson with high aspirations'scontrol and reorganization, becameLynchto cater to the localchamber of commerce, catered to the performance of empire.
他毕竟对这里不了解,说些模糊了界限的话也在情理之中,然后这些话会流传出去,在有心人的控制和改编下,成为林奇迎合本地商会,迎合帝国的表现。
The federalpersonkneelsto lick the empire, is thisnotjust the domesticmasters the scene that wantsto see?
联邦人跪舔帝国,这不正是国内的老爷们想要看到的场面吗?
But how hehas not thought,Lynchwill fire offtohereeveryoneunexpectedlydirectly, eventoFratempireopen fire.
可他怎么都没有想到,林奇居然会直接向这里所有人开炮,甚至向盖弗拉帝国开炮。This......
这……
Did thisbastardthingdrink?
这混蛋玩意是不是喝多了?Can unable to lookfromhefair and clearcharmingface?!
可从他白净帅气的脸上看不出来啊?!
The chairmen of the chamber of commercedo not know that he must sayanything, butat this time, bestorbreakshim, „I......”
商会会长不知道他还要说什么,可这个时候,最好还是打断他,“我……”Hiswordshave not said that was brokenbyLynchon the contrary, Lynchlifts the handaccording to hisarm, preventinghimfrom continue say,„Iknowyoumustsayanything, Iwas very clear.”
他的话还没有说出来,反倒被林奇打断了,林奇抬起手按在他的胳膊上,阻止了他继续说下去,“我知道你要说什么,我很清楚。”„Icomeheregoal is not forandeveryoneseeaboveside, drinks a liquor, saidmutually a suitablepolite speech, then the racket the buttocksleave.”
“我来这里的目的并不是为了和大家见上面一面,喝点酒,互相说点适合的场面话,然后拍拍屁股离开。”„Gentlemen, the ladies, Icome tohereamdo business, iscomes tohereandyoucaptures the market, the nationality, is the standpoint, wehave not stoodin the samestandpoint, thereforewe are not only the friends, is an enemy.”
“先生们,女士们,我来这里就是做生意的,就是来这里和你们抢市场的,无论是国籍,还是立场,我们都没有站在同一立场上,所以我们既是朋友,也是敌人。”„Ihope that wecanrespecteach other, showsourelegant demeanors, inbelonging toour‚battlefield’onmeets, ashostileboth sides, exhaustsusto be ablegoes to the tenaciousfight.”
“我希望我们能够尊重彼此,展现我们的风采,在属于我们的‘战场’上碰面,作为敌对的双方,竭尽我们所能的去顽强战斗。”„Regardless ofvictory and loss!”
“无论输赢!”Hecast a sidelong glanceslantinglychairman of the chamber of commerceeyes, „rather thanresorts tosomemeaninglesssmallmethod, letseach otherlook down upon!”
他斜睨了商会会长一眼,“而不是耍一些毫无意义的小手段,让彼此看不起!”
