英文小说连载《小王子》No.23商人

  "Good morning," said the little prince.

  "Good morning," said the merchant.

  This was a merchant who sold pills that had been invented to quench thirst. You need only swallow one pill a week, and you would feel no need of anything to drink.

  "Why are you selling those?" asked the little prince.

  "Because they save a tremendous amount of time," said the merchant. "Computations have been made by experts. With these pills, you save fifty-three minutes in every week."

  "And what do I do with those fifty-three minutes?"

  "Anything you like..."

  "As for me," said the little prince to himself, "if I had fifty-three minutes to spend as I liked, I should walk at my leisure toward a spring of fresh water."

  “你好。”小王子说。

  “你好。”商人说道。

  这是一位贩卖能够止渴的精制药丸的商人。每周吞服一丸就不会感觉口渴。

  “你为什么卖这玩艺儿?”小王子说。

  “这就大大地节约了时间。”商人说,“专家们计算过,这样,每周可以节约五十三分钟。”

  “那么,用这五十三分钟做什么用?”

  “随便怎么用都行。…”

  小王子自言自语地说:“我如果有五十三分钟可支配,我就悠哉游哉地向水泉走去…”
