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.
“你為什么賣這玩藝兒？”小王子說。

“這就大大地節(jié)約了時間?！鄙倘苏f，“專家們計算過，這樣，每周可以節(jié)約五十三分鐘?！?/p>

"And what do I do with those fifty-three minutes?"
“那么，用這五十三分鐘做什么用？”

"Anything you like…"
“隨便怎么用都行……”

小王子自言自語地說：“我如果有五十三分鐘可支配，我就悠哉游哉地向泉水走去……”
