Their suite is as familiar to me today as the four dreary walls that presently enclose me, although I never saw it and never will, any more than I saw the inside of the Mwangaza’s royal apartments, or Sam’s ops room with its encrypted satellite phone for secure communications with the Syndicate and other persons unnamed—or so Spider informed me in one of our quick-fire opening exchanges, for Spider like many sound-thieves was garrulous, and Welsh with it.
Su suite me es tan familiar hoy como las cuatro tristes paredes que me envuelven ahora, aunque nunca la vi y nunca la veré, como tampoco vi el interior de los aposentos reales del Mwangaza, o la sala de operaciones de Sam, con su teléfono satélite codificado para las comunicaciones seguras con el cártel y otras personas anónimas, o eso me informó Spider en uno de nuestros rápidos diálogos iniciales, ya que Spider, como muchos ladrones de sonido, era locuaz, y para colmo galés.
Likely Montgomery Ward had at least one moment or two of regretful musing that his business wasn't the kind where he could a held some kind of a quick fire sale before Flera would have time to hear about it. But his stock in trade being such a nebulous quantity that it never had no existence except during the moment when the customer was actively buying and consuming it, the only thing he could a sold would be his capital investment itself, which would not only be contrary to all the economic laws, he wouldn't even have no nebulous stock in trade to sell to nobody during whatever time he would have left before Flem foreclosed him, which might be weeks or even months yet.
Es probable que Montgomery Ward tuviera al menos un momento o dos de apesadumbrada reflexión, considerando que su negocio no era del tipo que permite organizar una venta rápida por liquidación antes de que Flem llegara a enterarse, porque, dada la nebulosa calidad de su mercancía, que tan sólo existía durante el momento en que el cliente la estaba comprando y consumiendo activamente, lo único que podría vender sería su principal inversión, lo que no sólo resultaría contrario a todas las leyes de la economía, sino que le dejaría sin nebulosas mercancías que seguir vendiendo durante el periodo que le quedara hasta que Flem pusiera fin al negocio, momento para el que podían faltar semanas o incluso meses.
