3.1.6 奴隶公司沸腾了 Slave Company is Boiling
娥黄让牛郎挑衣服，牛郎选了件最便宜的衣服。娥黄说：“到另一边看看！”她指着最贵的一套衣服说：“你穿上，我看看！”
牛郎焦急地要说：“这件衣服太贵了！”他身后的售货员拉了拉他的胳膊。牛郎不说话了，穿上了衣服。娥黄走过去帮他系扣，然后说：“转一圈，我看看！”随后又问：“喜欢吗？”
牛郎回答：“喜欢！这么好的衣服，我当然喜欢！”
Beauty-Yellow asked Cowboy to pick out a cloth, and Cowboy chose the cheapest one. Beauty-Yellow said, “Look on the other side!” She pointed to the most expensive set of clothes and said, “Put it on and I'll take a look!”
Cowboy was anxious to say, “This cloth is too expensive!” The salesman behind him pulled his arm. Cowboy stopped talking and put on the dress. Beauty-Yellow walked over and helped him fasten the buttons, then said, “Turn around and let me see!” Then asked, “Do you like it?”
Cowboy replied, “Love it! Such nice clothes, of course I like them!”
娥黄指着旁边同样尺寸，不同样式的衣服说：“你再试试这套衣服合身不？”
牛郎一边脱衣服一边指着那套和旁边的衣服说：“这和我身上穿着的都是同一尺码的衣服，都合身，我都喜欢！”
娥黄指了指另外的两套衣服对售货员说：“那就不用试了，这两套也给我包起来！”说完，她回去柜台了。
牛郎反应过来了，一边重新穿好衣服一边喊：“姐！我没向你要那两套衣服！”售货员和保安围过来告诉他别说话，如果他不闭嘴，就不让他靠近娥黄。争吵了一段时间后，牛郎同意闭嘴了。
Beauty-Yellow pointed to the next set of clothes of the same size with a different style and said, “Try this one again to see if it fits?”
Cowboy pointed to that set and the one next to it as he undressed and said, “This is the same size as what I'm wearing, both fit, and I like them both!”
Beauty-Yellow pointed to the other two sets of clothes and said to the salesclerk, “Then there's no need to try them on, wrap these two sets up for me too!” After saying that, she went back to the counter.
Cowboy reacted and shouted as he redressed, “Sis! I didn't ask you for those two sets of clothes!” The salesmen and security guards came around and told him to keep quiet, and if he didn't shut up, he wouldn't be allowed to go near Beauty-Yellow. After arguing for some time, the cowboy agreed to shut up.
牛郎走到娥黄附近后，她指着装着男士内裤的笸箩说：“把这些内裤全都给我包起来，然后算账！”
牛郎又要说话，他身边的售货员立刻拉他的衣服阻止他说话。
柜台的收银员把剩下来的六两半银子放在了柜台上。娥黄拿起了五两的银锭交给了牛郎。牛郎立刻要取那柜台上的一两半散碎银子，说：“我是负责为主人拿银子的人！”
收银员立刻用手捂住了散碎银子，保安走到了牛郎和银子之间，挡住了去取银子的牛郎。一个售货员把包衣服包袱挂在了牛郎的脖子上后，就开始向外推牛郎。牛郎被推到了商场的经理面前。经理说： “兄弟！我告诉你别说话。你不但说话，还动手了。然后，他开始给牛郎解释刚才发生的事，让他记住娥黄是老板，他是雇员，他应该听从娥黄的指示。
After Cowboy walked near Beauty-Yellow, she pointed to the colander containing men's underwear and said, “Wrap up all these underwear for me and settle the bill!”
Cowboy was about to speak again when the salesman beside him immediately pulled on his shirt to stop him from speaking.
The cashier at the counter placed the remaining six and a half taels of silver on the counter. Beauty-Yellow picked up the five taels of silver ingot and gave it to Cowboy. Immediately, Cowboy wanted to take the one and a half taels of loose silver that was on that counter, saying, “I am the one responsible for getting the silver for the master!”
The cashier immediately covered the loose change with his hands. The security guard walked between the Cowboy and the money, blocking him from taking the money. A salesman hung the bundle of clothes around Cowboy's neck and began to push him out. He was pushed to the front of the manager of the mall. The manager said: "Brother! I told you not to talk. Not only did you talk, but you also got physical." Then, he began to explain to him what had just happened, asking him to remember that Beauty-Yellow was the boss, and he was the employee, and he should follow Beauty-Yellow's instructions.
在回家的路上，娥黄再次给牛郎讲解作为家仆的礼节和着衣的重要性。牛郎听得挺高兴。娥黄还告诉他：“以后你要常常洗澡，勤换衣服。我会检查你晾在绳子上的衣服是否干净。”
走到了古墓工地的门口时，牛郎说：“今晚，我还要回去奴隶公司。昨天你们没有决定要雇用我，所以今晚我需要回公司报告面试情况。”
娥黄回答：“那你把包袱给我吧。明天你可以把行李拿来，我给你找一间单独的房间作为宿舍。”
On the way home, Beauty-Yellow explained to Cowboy again the etiquette of being a servant and the importance of dressing. Cowboy was very happy to hear that. Beauty-Yellow also told him: "In the future, you should take baths and change clothes frequently. I will check whether the clothes you hang on the rope are clean."
When they arrived at the door of the ancient tomb construction site, Cowboy said: "Tonight, I have to go back to the slave company. You didn't decide to hire me yesterday, so I need to go back to the company tonight to report the interview results."
Beauty-Yellow replied: "Then give me the baggage. You can bring your luggage tomorrow, and I will find you a separate room as a dormitory."
3.1.6-2 奴隶公司沸腾了 Slave Company is Boiling
牛郎回到奴隶公司后，向建筑施工部的奴隶主管们做了汇报。那些主管不相信牛郎，认为他的衣服是偷来的，说：“我们这些部门经理的全部家产，包括房子和土地，也就值十五两银子。你偷东西会给我们带来麻烦，我们得把你的衣服给人家还回去；否则我们打你！”
这时牛郎的一位从小一起长大的朋友也在旁边听着。他也是奴隶，但他是一位家佣部的主管，有奴隶公司分给他的房子和土地。他对牛郎的部门经理说：“依我看，牛郎找到了一份高级的家佣工作。你们先等等，我立刻去向上级汇报。”
奴隶公司的领导们听说牛郎找到了高级的家佣工作，立刻去向公司的大老板汇报了。当天夜里，奴隶公司的领导们就研究决定：调牛郎到家佣部，并由家佣部和建筑施工部一起计划和实施在古墓工地对牛郎所进行的家佣和建筑技工的培训。
After Cowboy returned to the slave company, he reported to the slave supervisors of the construction department. Those supervisors did not believe Cowboy and thought that his clothes were stolen. They said, "The total property of us department managers, including houses and land, is only worth fifteen taels of silver. Your stealing will cause us trouble. We must return your clothes to the owner; otherwise, we will beat you!"
At this time, a friend of Cowboy who grew up with him was also listening nearby. He was also a slave, but he was a supervisor of the domestic servant department and had a house and land allocated to him by the slave company. He said to Cowboy's department manager, "In my opinion, Cowboy has found a high-level domestic servant job. Wait a minute, I will report to my superiors immediately."
When the leaders of the slave company heard that Cowboy had found a high-level domestic worker job, they immediately reported it to the company's big boss. That night, the leaders of the slave company decided to transfer Cowboy to the domestic worker department, and the domestic worker department and the construction department would work together to plan and implement the training of Cowboy as a domestic worker and construction technician at the ancient tomb construction site.
家佣部的领导们认为奴隶公司的行李和设备不好，决定明天让牛郎带着他朋友的家具和出差用的行李。就这样，牛郎和他朋友在午夜后向家里赶。他们俩要拿走他家仅有的几件家具。第二天早晨，奴隶公司工程部和家佣部的多位领导来到了牛郎朋友的家，把牛郎的朋友叫到了外面。他们一起研究如和让牛郎保住这份工作。故事说，牛郎朋友的妻子当时就被吓哭了，好在牛郎笑着劝说起了一定的作用。他们决定，牛郎和他的朋友为一组，一起行动。别的部门经理们各自通过不同的渠道进入小龙女的工地。
The leaders of the domestic servant’s department thought that the luggage and equipment of the slave company were not good, so they decided to let Cowboy take his friend's furniture and luggage for business trip tomorrow. In this way, Cowboy and his friend rushed home after midnight. The two of them wanted to take away the few pieces of furniture in his house. The next morning, several leaders of the construction department and the domestic servant’s department of the slave company came to Cowboy's friend's house and called Cowboy's friend outside. They worked together to figure out how to let Cowboy keep this job. The story goes that Cowboy's friend's wife was scared and cried at the time, but fortunately Cowboy's smiling persuasion played a certain role. They decided that Cowboy and his friend would work together as a group. Managers of other departments entered Little Dragon Girl's construction site through different channels.
3.1.6-3
牛郎和他的朋友进入工地前被站岗的士兵拦住了，对牛郎说：“这是你第三次来这里，可以进去。以后你再来就需要通行证了，否则得让你的雇主出来接你进去。”
牛郎见到了娥黄后，把自己的朋友介绍给了她，说：“在我们的奴隶公司，我以前属于建筑施工部。昨天夜里，他们把我调配到了家佣部。我的这位朋友是家佣部的一个指导员，他是跟我来，培训我如何做家佣工作的。”
牛郎还告诉了娥黄，下次他再进入这个地区需要通行证，随后一段时间他的朋友也会常来指导他，也需要通行证。娥黄思考了一下，说：“以前，这事都是女英办的。对于你，我看还是我陪你们去比较好。”
Before Cowboy and his friend entered the construction site, they were stopped by a soldier on guard. The soldier said to him, "This is your third time here, you can go in. You will need a pass next time you come here, otherwise your employer will have to come out to pick you up."
After Cowboy met Beauty-Yellow, he introduced his friend to her and said, "In our slave company, I used to belong to the construction department. Last night, they transferred me to the domestic servant department. My friend is an instructor in the domestic servant department. He came with me to train me how to do domestic servant work."
Cowboy also told Beauty-Yellow that he would need a pass next time he entered this area, and his friend would often come to guide him for a period, and he would also need a pass. Beauty-Yellow thought for a while and said, "In the past, this was done by Heroine. For you, I think it would be better for me to accompany you."
娥黄跟着牛郎来到了警察局。那里来办理通行证的人很多。办证的警官对牛郎和他的朋友询问了很长时间，不予以发证。娥黄找警务人员询问。这时从警察局里出来了一个认识娥黄的人，打招呼说：“您怎么来这里了？”
娥黄指着牛郎回答：“我来证明他是我们的雇员。他们俩有什么问题吗？我看比我们后来的已经有人离开了。”
那个警官回答：“我去询问一下！以前这事都是女英来办，这次怎么是您来了？”
娥黄回答：“牛郎和女英有些小矛盾，我怕他们俩在来这里的路上打起来，我就来了。”
那个警官恍然大悟，笑着说：“啊！我们不知道为什么您来了，而女英没来，所以才盘问他们俩。他们俩没啥事，我回去告诉办证的警官放他们俩离开。”
Beauty-Yellow followed Cowboy to the police station. There were many people there to apply for passes. The officer who issued the pass questioned Cowboy and his friend for a long time and refused to issue the pass. Beauty-Yellow went to ask the police officer. At this time, a person who knew Beauty-Yellow came out of the police station and greeted him, saying, "Why are you here?"
Beauty-Yellow pointed at Cowboy and replied, "I'm here to prove that he is our employee. Is there any problem with the two of them? I think someone who came later than us has left."
The police officer replied: "I'll go and ask! In the past, it was always Heroine who handled this matter. Why are you here this time?"
Beauty-Yellow replied: "Cowboy and Heroine had some minor conflicts, and I was afraid that they would fight on the way here, so I came."
The police officer suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Ah! We don't know why you came, and Heroine didn't, so we questioned them. There is nothing wrong with them, I will go back and tell the officer who issued the certificate to let them go."
3.1.6-4
娥黄把她们雇主自己的一小间仓库作为工人宿舍分配给了牛郎。然后，她开始介绍牛郎的家佣职责。他们俩跟着娥黄来到了她要种菜的地方。牛郎的朋友主动地说，我们曾经指导我们的奴隶给雇主建造过几个菜园。我想对雇主说一下我的想法，一些做法需要雇主的允许。这位朋友就帮娥黄和牛郎设计了菜园和土壤改良计划。
当娥黄和牛郎在槐荫树下研究牛棚的位置和建造风格的时候。牛郎的朋友沿着湖边走，向湖里看。娥黄问牛郎：“你的朋友在看什么？”
牛郎回答：“五六年没人在这里钓鱼了；他在看湖里的鲤鱼长多大了。”
Beauty-Yellow assigned Cowboy a small room in their own storage house as a worker's dormitory. Then, she began to introduce Cowboy's domestic duties. The two followed Beauty-Yellow to the place where she was going to plant vegetables. Cowboy's friend took the initiative to say, "We have instructed our slaves to build several vegetable gardens for our employers. I want to tell our employer about my ideas, and some practices require the employer's permission." The friend helped Beauty-Yellow and Cowboy design a vegetable garden and soil improvement plan.
While Beauty-Yellow and Cowboy were studying the location and construction style of the cowshed near the locust tree. Cowboy's friend walked along the lake and investigated the lake. Beauty-Yellow asked Cowboy, "What is your friend looking at?"
Cowboy replied, "No one has been fishing here for five or six years; he is looking at how big the carp in the lake have grown."
牛郎的朋友回来后，牛郎笑着问：“有几条？长多大了？”朋友回答：“我看见三条一米长的，像似猪一样大的鲤鱼！”
娥黄立刻着急地说：“工地里的人已经在这个湖里钓走两条那么大的鲤鱼了。我还以为这湖里不会再有了。我得立刻去找瞽叟，以免晚上人们又来这里钓鱼了。你们先去安排你的宿舍吧！”
随后，瞽叟给各个施工队发出了通知，说这里是人家的家。建筑工人不允许到这家的后院钓鱼或者散步。他还在后院和建筑工地之间立起了警示牌。
When the friend came back, Cowboy asked with a smile: "How many are there? How big are they?" His friend replied: "I saw three carps that are one meter long and as big as pigs!"
Beauty-Yellow immediately said anxiously: "The people at the construction site have already caught two carps that big in this lake. I thought there would be no more in this lake. I must go find Blind Drummer immediately to prevent people from coming here to fish again this evening. You should go and arrange your dormitory first!"
Afterwards, Blind Drummer sent notices to all construction teams, saying that this was someone else's home. Construction workers were not allowed to go fishing or walking in the backyard of this family. He also put up a warning sign between the backyard and the construction site.
3.1.6-5
牛郎的朋友帮牛郎布置了宿舍，然后说：“这屋里的布置是我们公司多年研究的结果。任何东西的位置都是固定不变的，例如这根搭手巾的绳子，就是这个角度和位置，不能更改。搭手巾的位置就是搭在绳子这边的三分之一处，不许搭在别的位置。你床下面的洗脸盆和碱盒必须是在你床头侧边的三分之一处，位置不能有偏差。你要勤洗澡，我要检查你晾在绳上的内衣是否干净。还有，你是这家的雇员，你去菜地厨房和后院是去工作。你没事时，不许去那里散步和钓鱼。现在这里已经是别人的家了。你到我家可以前后院溜达，在这里不行。”
The Cowboy's friend helped him decorate the dormitory, and then said, "The layout of this room is the result of our company's years of research. The position of everything is fixed, such as the rope for hanging towels. It is at this angle and position and cannot be changed. The position of the towel is one-third of the way along the rope and cannot be hung anywhere else. The washbasin and alkali box under your bed must be one-third of the way to the side of your bed, and there must be no deviation in the position. You must take a shower frequently, and I will check whether your underwear hanging on the rope is clean. Also, you are an employee of this family, and you go to the vegetable garden, kitchen, and backyard to work. When you have nothing to do, you are not allowed to walk or fish there. This is someone else's home now. You can stroll around the front and back yards when you come to my house, but not here."
牛郎的朋友又对牛郎说：“还有，近几天你尽量避免被你的那三位女主人看见；她们看不惯你的行为。等我培训你十五天之后，你再去接近她们。没事时，你就可以去犁地。昨天晚上和今天早上的事把你嫂子吓坏啦！今天早上咱们出来时，她哭着问我，‘是不是又死人了？’我回答，‘是好事，牛郎升职了。’她不信，今天我得早些回家，去安慰安慰她。”
The Cowboy's friend said to Cowboy again, "Also, try to avoid being seen by your three mistresses in the next few days; they can't stand your behavior. Wait until I train you for fifteen days before you approach them. When you have nothing to do, you can go plow the fields. What happened last night, and this morning scared your sister-in-law! When we went out this morning, she asked me in tears, 'Did someone die again?' I replied, “It's a good thing, Cowboy got a promotion. ' She didn't believe it, so I had to go home early today to comfort her.”
3.1.6-6
第二天早上，牛郎的朋友来了，拿来了三套懒钩渔具，对牛郎说：“你教娥黄下懒钩，她明天早上就迷上钓鱼了。你也有鱼吃了！”
果然，此后，她们三个姑娘天天吃鱼，没多久小龙女和女英就对娥黄每天做鱼提出了严正得抗议。
The next morning, Cowboy's friends came and brought three sets of lazy hook fishing gear and said to Cowboy: "Teach Beauty-Yellow how to use lazy hooks, and she will be addicted to fishing tomorrow morning. You can also eat fish!"
Sure enough, from then on, the three girls ate fish every day. It wasn't long before little Dragon Girl and Heroine lodged a solemn protest Beauty-Yellow cooking fish every day.
3.2.7 心账竹竿 Heart-Account Bamboo
话说小龙女，娥黄，和女英很快就迷上了钓鱼。一天牛郎的朋友拿来了一张武汉北部一个贵族钓鱼俱乐部所使用的鱼竿的设计图纸。这三位姑娘一看就迷上了这种当时最先进的钓鱼具。（注，这虽然是六千三百年前的钓鱼具，但样式和现代标准的钓具一样，性能也不亚于任何现代的普通钓鱼具。金丝线的抗拉强度远远高于目前最强普通鱼线的55公斤。）
牛郎给三位女主人讲解，钓具的设计理念，比如鱼竿的柔韧性和刚性，线轴的大小和鱼线的长度计算。牛郎说金丝线的价钱按照金丝线的重量算，比黄金便宜不了多少。小龙女回答：“买一轴！”
It is said that Little Dragon Girl, Beauty Yellow, and Heroine soon became fascinated with fishing. One day, Cowboy's friend brought a design drawing of a fishing rod used by an aristocratic fishing club in northern Wuhan. The three girls immediately fell in love with this most advanced fishing tackle at the time. (Note: Although this is a fishing tackle from 6,300 years ago, its style is the same as modern standard fishing tackle, and its performance is no less than any modern ordinary fishing tackle. The tensile strength of the gold thread is much higher than the 55 kg of the strongest ordinary fishing line currently.)
Cowboy explained to the three hostesses the design concept of the fishing tackle, such as the flexibility and rigidity of the fishing rod, the size of the spool and the length of the fishing line. Cowboy said that the price of the gold thread is calculated according to the weight of the gold thread, which is not much cheaper than gold. Little Dragon Girl replied: "Buy a spool!"
牛郎说：“这种竹竿，在整个武汉市就只有一家渔具市场卖。那整个市场也就只有一家商人卖这种鱼竿，就只有他们家的那个山沟子里生长这种竹子。我不知道价钱。我去那里，早上出发，途中需要搭渡船，晚上半夜才能会到这里的家。”
小龙女回答：“明天你就去买吧！多带点儿钱，买三根！”
女英问：“带多少钱呐？我去取银子去！”
娥黄回答：“四十两！”
牛郎看着四十两银子，害怕地看着女英，问：“你去吗？”
Cowboy said: "There is only one fishing tackle market in Wuhan that sells this kind of bamboo rod. There is only one merchant in the market that sells this kind of fishing rod, and this kind of bamboo only grows in the ravine where his family lives. I don't know the price. If I leave here in the morning, I'll need to take a ferry on the way, and I won't get here home until midnight."
Little Dragon Girl replied: "Go buy it tomorrow! Bring more money, buy three rods!"
Heroin asked: "How much money do you want to take? I'll go get the silver!"
Beauty replied: "Forty taels!"
Cowboy, facing the 40 taels of silver, looked at Heroine fearfully and asked, "Are you going?"
女英回答：“我可不因为保护这点儿银子，跟你去。你看，我把银子装在了蛇皮袋里了，你斜挂在衣服里，看不出来！”
牛郎问：“那我遇见土匪了，怎么办？”
女英回答：“遇见了土匪，如果你琢磨着打不过他们，又跑不了了，就把钱给他们，保命要紧。你回来了，我们不会杀了你卖肉来偿还这四十两银子。”
牛郎巡视小龙女和娥黄。她们俩也说：“保命要紧，争取活着回来！”
第二天晚上，牛郎扛着一捆21根竹竿回来了，把银袋子交还给了女英。
Heroine replied, "I'm not going with you just to protect this little bit of silver. You see, I put the silver in a snakeskin bag, and you hung it diagonally in your clothes, so it can't be seen!"
Cowboy asked, "What should I do if I encounter bandits?"
Heroine replied, "If you encounter bandits and you think you can't beat them and can't run away, give them the money. Saving your life is the most important thing. After you come back, we won't kill you and sell your flesh to pay back the 40 taels of silver."
Cowboy inspected Little Dragon Girl and Beauty-Yellow. They both said, "Saving your life is important. Try to come back alive!"
The next night, Cowboy came back carrying a bundle of 21 bamboo rods and returned the silver bag to Heroine.
3.1.8-2 心账竹竿 Heart-Account Bamboo
女英问：“让你买3根，你怎么买了21根？”
牛郎回答：“便宜，十文钱一根。”
女英是收银员和仓库保管员。她就开始数银子和竹竿，发现是20根。生气地说：“十文钱也是钱啊！让你买三根，因为便宜，你买7根也就行了。你说买了21根，结果是20根。
娥黄听了，赶忙过来数竹竿，结果也是20根。她也问：“怎么少了一根？”
牛郎尴尬地回答：“打赌输了！”
女英怒吼：“你用我们的钱去赌博！但这钱和竹竿都在这里，你把什么东西输掉了？快说，不然我用鞭子抽你！”
Heroine asked: "Boss told you to buy 3 rods, why did you buy 21 rods?"
Cowboy replied: "It's cheap, 10 coins per bamboo pole."
Heroine was a cashier and warehouse keeper. She started to count the silver and bamboo poles and found that there were 20 bamboo poles. She said angrily: "10 coins is also money! I told you to buy 3, because it's cheap, you can just buy 7 rods. You said you bought 21 rods, but it turned out to be 20 rods.
Beauty Yellow heard it and hurried over to count the bamboo poles, and the result was also 20 rods. She also asked: "Why is there one less?"
Cowboy replied awkwardly: "I lost the bet!"
Heroine roared: "You used our money to gamble! But the money and the bamboo pole are here, what did you lose? Tell me, or I'll whip you!"
牛郎说：“我到那个渔具市场一打听，店老板就指着立在墙角的一捆竹竿说，‘全武汉市的这种钓鱼竿都是从那个竹竿捆里拔出来的，十文钱一根。我一听就愣住了，这么便宜！那位老板还以为我嫌贵，就介绍说，‘我的竹竿有三大优点和一赌！’我就问，他回答，‘我的竹竿能够被弯成360度，不折，折而不断。’我又问，‘一赌是什么？’卖竹竿的老板回答，‘如果你能把那捆竹竿中的任何一根折断了，那捆竹竿就白送给你。你若折不断，你就花210文钱买我21根竹竿。”
牛郎继续说：“我觉着即便赌输了，这么远来的，买21根也可以。我挑了一根短竹竿，就赌了一把，结果输了。那根已经被我折伤了，就被我扔了。”
Cowboy said, "I went to the fishing tackle market and asked around. The shop owner pointed to a bundle of bamboo rods standing in the corner and said, 'All the fishing rods in Wuhan are pulled out from that bundle of bamboo rods. They are ten coins each. I was stunned when I heard that. It was so cheap! The owner thought I thought it was too expensive, so he introduced it, 'My bamboo rods have three advantages and a bet!' I asked, and he replied, 'My bamboo rods can be bent 360 degrees without breaking, and they will not break into separate parts if they are broken.' I asked again, 'What is the bet?' The owner of the bamboo rods replied, 'No matter however you test them. If you can break any one of the bamboo rods in the bundle, the whole bundle of bamboo rods will be given to you for free. If you can not break it, you need to spend 210 coins to buy 21 of my bamboo rods.'
Cowboy continued, "I thought that even if I lost the bet, I came so far, so I could buy 21 rods. I chose a short bamboo rods and took the bet, but I lost. That one was broken by me, so I threw it away."
女英气愤地说：“你这个笨蛋，连根竹竿都折不断，还跟人家打赌！”
娥黄大声说：“21根竹竿，现在剩下19根了！”
女英不服气地回答：“你的意思是我跟他赌一把呗！行！牛郎，如果我折不断，我付210文钱；如果我折断了，你付210文钱！”
牛郎回答：“我没有210文钱；我什么也没有！”
小龙女证实说：“他是奴隶，确实什么也没有！那，我来付210文钱。”
Heroine said angrily, “You fool, you can't even pout and break a bamboo pole, and you're still betting with others!”
Beauty Yellow exclaimed, “21 bamboo rods, now 19 are left!”
Heroine replied defiantly, “You mean I'll bet with him! Ok! Cowboy, if I can’t break it, I'll pay 210 cents; if the bamboo rod broken, you pay 210 cents!”
Cowboy replied, “I don't have 210 cents; I don't have anything!”
Little Dragon Girl confirmed, “He is a slave and indeed has nothing! Then, I will pay 210 cents for him.”
女英回答：“什么也没有你还打赌！？小龙女已经付过210文钱了，不能参加这次赌博了。”
娥黄说：“我来替牛郎付210文钱。条件是他赢了之后，你给我210文钱现金。如果你拖欠不给，每月长十两银子，长到210两银子为止。”
女英回答：“行！”说着，她拿起一根竹竿就撅。他试了两三次后，竹竿开始撕裂，但没断开。
牛郎说：“这是鱼竿；你不能那么折！”小龙女和娥黄都跟着这么说。女英红着脸，坐到了窗台上。
Heroine replied, "You're still betting when you have nothing!? Little Dragon Girl has already paid 210 coins, so you can't participate in this gambling."
Beauty Yellow said, "I'll pay 210 coins for Cowboy. The condition is that after he wins, you give me 210 coins in cash. If you don't pay, I'll increase the amount by 10 taels of silver per month until it reaches 210 taels of silver."
Heroine replied, "Okay!" As she said that, she picked up a bamboo pole and started to break it. After he tried two or three times, the bamboo pole began to tear, but it didn't break.
Cowboy said, "This is a fishing rod; you can't break it like that!"
Little Dragon Girl and Beauty-Yellow suit. Heroine blushed and sat on the windowsill.
小龙女调解说：“要不这么算吧！如果牛郎能清楚地说出剩下的这19根竹竿的用途，就算他赢。若牛郎对这19根竹竿的用途规划得不合理，就算女英赢。”
娥黄和女英都同意了。
牛郎说：“三根短的做懒钩钓具。三根中等长度的用银丝线做你们三位日常钓具。一根长的用金丝线做钓大鲤鱼的钓具。其余12根留作备用，例如，弥补损毁和给客人使用。
女英反驳：“我们三个人怎么使用一根金丝线杆？”
Little Dragon Girl mediated and said: "How about this! If Cowboy can clearly explain the purpose of the remaining 19 bamboo rods, he wins. If he does not plan the purpose of the 19 bamboo rods reasonably, Heroine wins."
Beauty Yellow and Heroine both agreed.
Cowboy said, "Three short ones will be used as lazy hooks. Three medium-length ones will be used with silver thread as your daily fishing tackle. One long one will be used with gold thread as a tackle for big carp. The remaining 12 will be kept as spares, for example, to backup for damages and guests.
Heroine retorted: "How can three of us use one golden thread rod?"
牛郎回答：“大鲤鱼那么大，而且只有三条。如果一次抓两条，浪费啊！”
娥黄说：“这么算21根正好！备用也很重要！少了，不够用啊！”
女英说：“我输了，记账，从我的薪水里划给你210文钱。”
娥黄拿起了被女英折损了的竹竿说：“对不起！国家有规定，为了节约纸张，300文钱以下花费计心账。我就把这跟竹竿作为心账保留起来，等你把210文钱的现金给了我，我就把它销毁。”
女英笑着叨咕：“那你可得小心地保存着！如果心账竹竿没了，我就不会付给你210两银子。
Cowboy replied: "The big carp is that big, and there are only three of them. It would be a waste to catch two at a time!"
Beauty Yellow said: "21 rods are just right! Spare parts are also important! If fewer, there won't be enough!"
Heroine said: "I lost, keep a record, and I will give you 210 cents from my salary."
Beauty Yellow picked up the bamboo rods that was broken by Heroine and said, "I'm sorry! The state has regulations that to save paper, expenses below 300 cents should be recorded in the heart account. I will keep this bamboo rod as a heart account, and when you give me the 210 coins in cash, I will destroy it."
Heroine smiled and muttered, "Then you must keep it carefully! If the heart account bamboo rod is gone, I will not pay you 210 taels of silver.

当娥黄跟着女英把竹竿送进后院仓库的时候。女英是在娥黄后面从仓库里出来的，她趁娥黄没注意，就把那根心账竹竿拿出门后，扔到了屋顶上。
一段时间后，女英认为人们都已经把心账竹竿这件事忘了，她就从房顶上取下了心账竹竿，放到了厨房的材堆上了。她告诉牛郎，烧火的时候，把心账竹竿烧掉。
When Beauty Yellow followed heroine to deliver the bamboo rods to the backyard warehouse. Heroine came out of the warehouse after Beauty Yellow. When Beauty Yellow was not paying attention, she took the bamboo rods out of the door and threw it on the roof.
After a while, Heroine thought that people had forgotten about the bamboo rod, so she took it down from the roof and put it on the kitchen wood pile. She told Cowboy to burn the bamboo pole when making a fire.
几个月后，娥黄不在，女英气忡忡地又从后院仓库里拿出了心账竹竿，来找牛郎，质问，“我让你把它烧了，你为什么没烧？”
牛郎回答：“我再烧火的时候，这根竹竿已经不在材堆上了！”
女英回答：“好！这次我把它放在柴堆的后面。明天早上你烧火的时候，先从柴堆的后面把它拿出来烧掉！”
牛郎答应着：“好！明天早上我把火燃起来后，就把这根竹竿剁了，扔在灶火里。”
A few months later, Beauty Yellow was gone, and Heroine took out the bamboo rod from the backyard warehouse again, and came to Cowboy, asking, "I asked you to burn it, why didn't you burn it?"
Cowboy replied: "When I light the fire again, the bamboo rod is no longer on the pile of wood!"
Heroine replied: "Okay! This time I will put it behind the pile of wood. Tomorrow morning when you light the fire, take it out from the back of the pile and burn it!"
Cowboy agreed: "Okay! Tomorrow morning when I light the fire, I will chop the bamboo rod and throw it into the stove."
3.1.8 娥黄要气死小龙女 Beauty-Yellow Wants to Anger Little Dragon Girl to Death
牛郎的朋友们也住进了小龙女的工地，住在他们公司为其他建筑公司工作的奴隶的宿舍。他每天教牛仔如何做仆人，给他做示范，让牛仔模仿他。
这天小龙女和女英出去了，只有娥黄自己在厨房做饭。牛郎的朋友就向娥黄请求他给牛郎表演。随后他让牛郎自己表演进入厨房，择菜，和离开厨房的行为。他俩还向娥黄征求意见。娥黄是瑶王的女儿，也是公主，给了他们俩一些意见。
朋友和牛郎从厨房出来后，又对牛郎的一些行为做出了纠正，然后说：“我们几个家佣部的指导员研究决定，从现在开始，就让你去厨房给娥黄打下手。”朋友又从公文包里拿出了牛郎的个人简历和奴隶雇佣合同，让牛郎把文件交给娥黄。朋友说：“娥黄接人待物的言谈举止绝对是贵族小姐的典范。你跟她出去买菜，必须要让她看起来像个公主。她看起来是不是个贵族小姐取决于你的行为举止能否把她衬托出来。”
Cowboy's friends also stayed at the Little Dragon Girl's construction site, in the dormitory of their company's slaves who worked for other construction companies. He taught Cowboy how to be a servant every day, gave him demonstrations, and had Cowboy imitate him.
On this day Little Dragon Girl and Heroine went out, and Beauty-Yellow was the only one cooking by herself in the kitchen. Cowboy's friend then asks Beauty-Yellow to perform for Cowboy. Then he asked Cowboy himself to perform the act of entering the kitchen, choosing vegetables, and leaving the kitchen. They both also asked Beauty-Yellow for advice. Beauty-Yellow, the daughter of the Yao King and a princess, gave them both some advice.
After the friend and Cowboy came out of the kitchen, he made some more corrections to some of Cowboy's behaviors and then said, “A few of us instructors in the home servant department have decided to let you go to the kitchen and work for Beauty-Yellow from now on.” The friend took out Cowboy's resume and slave employment contract from his briefcase and told Cowboy to give that document to Beauty-Yellow. The friend said, “Beauty-Yellow's mannerisms in dealing with people are a model of a noble lady. When you go out grocery shopping with her, you must make her look like a princess. Whether she looks like an aristocratic lady or not depends on whether your demeanor sets her off.”
牛郎听后挺高兴，问：“是不是我的表现挺好？前天你说要培训我15天，才让我主动去接近她们。”
朋友回答：“你的表现还行！如果你做好了这项工作，你就可能被升职，和我一样，也有房子有地了。将来你可能比我干得好，成为咱公司的大老板。你的事，咱公司的股东们已经研究决定了：如果你把这份工作做坏了，他们就送你去土匪窝里作家佣。我们几个家佣部的指导员也就没有好日子过了。他们早就对我们几个有意见了。”
Cowboy was quite happy to hear this and asked, “Isn't it true that I am doing quite well? The day before yesterday you said you had to train me for 15 days before I took the initiative to approach them.”
Friend replied, “Your performance was okay! If you do this job well, you could be promoted and have a house and land just like me. In the future you may do better than me and become the big boss of our company. The shareholders of our company have decided that if you do this job badly, they will send you to work as a domestic helper in a bandit's den. We instructors in the domestic servant department won't have a good life either. They've long had a problem with a few of us.”
3.1.7-2
牛郎进到了厨房，把自己的简历和奴隶雇佣合约放在了娥黄的旁边，一边帮她择菜一边说：“我朋友怕你，让我跟你说关于们公司和你们签合约的事。”
娥黄拿起文件就放到抽屉里了，说：“随后，我把这文件交给老板。你说你的那位朋友怕我，用那三套懒钩钓具让我对钓鱼上瘾是不是他的主意？”
牛郎回答：“是！”
Cowboy entered the kitchen and placed his resume and employment contract next to Beauty-Yellow. While helping her pick vegetables, he said, "My friend is afraid of you, so he asked me to tell you about the contract between our company and you."
Beauty-Yellow took the document and put it in the drawer, saying, "I will give it to the boss later. You said your friend is afraid of me. Was it his idea to use those three sets of lazy hook fishing gear to make me addicted to fishing?"
Cowboy replied, "Yes!"
娥黄说：“明天你去买三套标准的钓鱼具。再买六套懒钩钓具，其中的三套还给你的朋友。再买三只半浸式盗鱼篓；我喜欢用泥鳅鱼做饵。现在你跟我说说这文件里面都说些什么？”
牛郎说：“里面说了我受过的培训，例如三年前，我们公司在中华食品街和几家饭店有屠宰家畜的合同。那时政府正在推行食品卫生法，政府聘请屠宰师免费提供培训。我们公司就让所有的低阶奴隶轮流去那里工作。那时，我们每天每人的最大工作量是屠宰和清理72只鸡36条鱼和18条蛇。我曾经多天因为提前完成任务而获得出去玩的机会。”
娥黄说：“这就够了！雇佣合同是怎么回事？”
Beauty-Yellow said, “Tomorrow you go buy three sets of standard fishing tackle. Buy six more sets of lazy hook fishing tackle and return three of them to your friend. Buy three more semi-submerged pirate fish traps; I like to use mud minnows for bait. Now you tell me what this document says in it.”
Cowboy said, “It says what I have been trained to do; for example, three years ago, our company had a contract to slaughter livestock in China Food Street with several restaurants. At that time the government was implementing food sanitation laws and the government hired slaughtermen to provide training for free. Our company let all the low-ranking slaves take turns to work there. At that time, our maximum daily workload per person was to butcher and clean 72 chickens 36 fish and 18 snakes. I used to get a chance to go out on multiple days because I finished early.”
Beauty-Yellow said, “That's enough! What's with the employment contract?”
牛郎说：“我以前是建筑施工的中级技工，现在是初级的家佣。我们的行业一般是试用15天后，和雇佣者签订三个月的雇佣合同。9到13个月后，如果双方同意可以签长期合同。”
娥黄又问：“那天你朋友说他看见三条猪一样大的鲤鱼，我看了几次了没看见。你知道怎样才能看见那几条大鲤鱼不？”
Cowboy said, “I used to be a mid-level technician in building construction, but now I am a junior domestic helper. In our industry, we usually sign a three-month employment contract with the hirer after a 15-day trial period. After 9 to 13 months, a long-term contract can be signed if both parties agree.”
Beauty-Yellow asked again, “The other day your friend said he saw three carps the size of pigs, but I looked several times and didn't see them. Do you know how to see those big carps?”
牛郎回答：“我知道。他是在我们俩小时候发现的几个观察点看到的。”
娥黄说：“走！你领我去看看。我要先学会钓鱼。当我们三人一起钓鱼的时候，我就能钓到那三四十公斤重的大鲤鱼，她们俩钓不到。我把她们俩气死了，我就成为这个工地的大老板了。”
Cowboy replied, “I know. He saw it at a couple of observation points we both found when we were kids.”
Beauty-Yellow said, “Go! You lead me there. I want to learn to fish first. When the three of us fish together, I'll be able to catch that thirty- or forty-kilogram big carp that the two of them can't. After I anger them both to die, I'll be the big boss of this construction site.”
3.1.7-3
娥黄和牛郎从后门离开了厨房，小龙女就进屋拉开了装零钱的抽屉，拿出了牛郎的合同看，然后又放回去了。女英说：“文件是给你的，你就放在你客厅里的办公桌上呗，还放回去干啥？”
小龙女说：“你看牛郎的那位朋友，胳肢窝下夹着个公文包，傲慢与谦卑结合的恰到好处！我也得有个样儿！等过几天，娥黄拿这份文件让我签字的时候，我就这样儿，翘着二郎腿（二郎神的坐姿），把这文件往桌子上一放，对她说，‘你先给我说说这文件里写的是什么？’到那时如果她说不清楚，我就训斥她。我先把她气死，我的这个大老板的位子就保住了。”
When Yellow-Beauty and Cowboy left the kitchen through the back door, Little Dragoness Girl went inside and pulled out the drawer with the change, took out Cowboy's contract to read it, and then put it back. Heroine said, “The document is for you, you just put it on your desk in the living room, why put it back?”
Little Dragon Girl said, “Look at Cowboy's friend, holding a briefcase under his armpit, with the right combination of arrogance and humility! I must be a model too! In a few days, when Yellow-Beauty asks me to sign this document, I'll do it like this, cross my legs in Second Wolf God style, put the document on the table, and say, 'Tell me what's written in this document? At that point if she can't tell me clearly, I'll reprimand her. I'll make her anger to death first, so my big boss’s position is secured.”
女英惊讶地报告说：“口误更正！你翘的是“二伯腿”（注，二郎神是小龙女的二伯父）！”
小龙女立刻站起来了，拉着女英去偷看娥黄和牛郎在干什么。她一边走一边说：“你怎么也帮她气我呢！我二伯父是女娲造人工程项目中，我们华国的代表。杨戬是救世主的意思。在尧帝面前他不是狗仗人势的二等公民；他和尧帝是平等合作的关系。”
Heroin reported in surprise: "Correct the slip of the tongue! You will be sitting in the “Second Uncle-Father Style” (note: Second Wolf God is Little Dragon Girl's second uncle-father)!"
Little Dragon Girl immediately stood up and pulled heroine to peek at what Yellow-Beauty and Cowboy were doing. As she walked, she said: "Why are you helping her to anger me! My second uncle is the representative of our country in Nuwa's human creation project. Yang’jian (name of Second Wolf God) means savior. In front of Emperor Yao, he is not a second-class citizen who relies on others for power; he and Emperor Yao have an equal cooperation relationship."
3.1.7-3
小龙女和女英来到菜地查看，发现地已经被耕完了，还被分成了区块儿。每个区块儿边都立着个牌子，上面写着蔬菜的名字。
这时她俩看见牛郎正在给娥黄讲鲤鱼在湖里的巡游路线和规律。忽然他们俩蹲下了，查鱼的数量。女英告诉小龙女，“她们俩发现了大约七条鱼。咱俩也过去看看？”
小龙女气愤地回答：“人家都看清楚了，连头数都数出来了，咱还看它干啥！”
Little Dragon Girl and heroine came to the vegetable field to check and found that the field had been plowed and divided into blocks. There was a sign next to each block with the name of the vegetable written on it.
At this time, they saw Cowboy was explaining to Beauty-Yellow the route and pattern of carp in the lake. Suddenly, they squatted down to check the number of fish. Heroine told Little Dragon Girl, "They found about seven fish. Let's go and look?"
Little Dragon Girl replied angrily: "They have seen it clearly, even the number of heads has been counted, why should we look at it!"
这时她们俩回到了槐荫树旁。牛郎比划着盗鱼篓存放在牛棚旁边的位置，走到了湖边，又回到了石桌旁，旋转开了石桌。
女英惊讶地小声喊：“她们俩发现宝贝了！这是人家的家啊！ 要不咱俩现在过去！”
小龙女气愤地说：“很明显，那个石桌已经被娥黄用了几天了！走！咱俩去金库取银子，然后去饭店吃饭！我们不吃她做的饭了！”
At this point they both returned to the locust tree. Cowboy gestured to where the pirate fish trap was stored next to the barn, walked to the lake, and returned to the stone table, spinning it open.
Heroine cried out in a surprised whisper, “They've both found the treasure! This is someone's home! Why don't we both go over there now!”
Little Dragon Girl said angrily, “Obviously, that stone table has been used by Beauty-Yellow for a few days now! Let's go! Let's go to the vault to get the silver and then go to the restaurant to eat! We won’t eat her cooking anymore!”
