The fourth planet belonged to a businessman. This man was so much occupied that he did not even raise his head at the little prince's arrival. 第四个行星是一个实业家的星球。这个人忙得不可开交，小王子到来的时候， 他甚至连头都没有抬一下。 "Good morning," the little prince said to him. "Your cigarette has gone out." 小王子对他说：“您好。您的烟卷灭了。” "Three and two make five. Five and seven make twelve. Twelve and three make fifteen. Good morning. Fifteen and seven make twenty-two. Twenty-two and six make twenty-eight. I haven't time to light it again. Twenty-six and five make thirty-one. Phew! Then that makes five-hundred-and-one-million, six-hundred-twenty-two-thousand, seven-hundred-thirty-one." “三加二等于五。五加七等于十二。十二加三等于十五。早上好。十五加七， 二十二。二十二加六，二十八。没有时间去再点着它。二十六加五，三十一。哎哟！一共是五亿一百六十二万二千七百三十一。” "Five hundred million what?" asked the little prince. “五亿什么呀？” "Eh? Are you still there? Five-hundred-and-one million-- I can't stop… I have so much to do! I am concerned with matters of consequence. I don't amuse myself with balderdash. Two and five make seven…" “嗯？你还待在这儿哪？五亿一百万……我也不知道是什么了。我的工作很多……我是很严肃的，我可是从来也没有功夫去闲聊！二加五得七……” |
