Its tanks were manufactured by Cail & Co. in Paris, its engine by Krupp in Prussia, its spur by the Motala workshops in Sweden, its precision instruments by Hart Bros. in New York, etc.; and each of these suppliers received my specifications under a different name.
船上的储水池是巴黎嘉衣公司造的，机器是由普鲁士克虏由工厂制的，船前头的冲角出自瑞典的摩达拉工厂，一精一确的测验仪器出自纽约的哈提兄弟公司等等，上面的每一制造厂都收到上面署名不同的我的设计图， 按图样制造。
But, I went on, once these parts were manufactured, didn't they ha一ve to be mounted and adjusted?
不过，我说，这些制好了的一块一块材料，还得把它们配合起来、装置起来呢?
Professor, I set up my workshops on a deserted islet in midocean. There our Nautilus was completed by me and my workmen, in other words, by my gallant companions whom I've molded and educated.
教授，我在大洋中一个荒岛上建立了我的工作场。在岛上，我的工人，就是我所教养成的我的勇敢的同伴，跟我一起，一共一同把诺第留斯号完全装配好了。
Then, when the operation was over, we burned every trace of our stay on that islet, which if I could ha一ve, I'd ha一ve blown up.
然后，工程完了，我放起火来，把我们在这岛上所遗留的痕迹都消灭了，如果可能的话，我还要把这岛都炸毁呢。
From all this, may I assume that such a boat costs a fortune?
那么，这样看来，我可以相信，这船的建筑费用一定是十分浩大了?
An iron ship, Professor Aronnax, runs 1,125 francs per metric ton. Now then, the Nautilus has a burden of 1,500 metric tons.
阿龙纳斯先生，一只钢铁制的船，每吨容量的建筑费为一千一百二十五法郎。可是诺第留斯号的载重吨数是一千五百吨，
Consequently, it cost 1,687,000 francs, hence 2,000,000 francs including its accommodations, and 4,000,000 or 5,000,000 with all the collections and works of art it contains.
那么它的建筑费是一百七十丸万法郎，连装备费一一共一为二百万法郎，连船一内一所有的美术品和收藏物一一共一为是五百万法郎。
One last question, Captain Nemo.
尼摩船长，我要问您最后一个问题。
Ask, professor.
请您问吧，教授。
You're rich, then?
您是很富有吗?
Infinitely rich, sir, and without any trouble, I could pay off the ten-billion-franc French national debt!
无限地富有，我可以一点不为难地偿清法国的几十亿国债!
I gaped at the bizarre individual who had just spoken these words. Was he playing on my credulity? Time would tell.
我注视着这位跟我这样说话的古怪人物。难道他以为我可欺而故意吹牛吗?将来我一定有机会知道他这话是真是假。
