    “你好。”小王子说。

    “你好。”小商贩说道。

    这个小商贩在销售一种专门用来抑制口渴的小药丸,每周吞服一丸就不会感觉口渴。

    “你为什么卖这玩意儿?”小王子说。

    “因为这可以大大地节约时间。”小商贩说,“专家们计算过,用这些药丸,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,我就悠闲地向水泉走去……”

    Chapter 23

    "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."
