我雇人，”我说，“付他们工钱。

I hire people,” I said, “and pay them wages.

当然，在安东尼奥开口之前，我也从没想过雇人来帮我。

Of course, before Antonio brought it up, I’d never even considered hiring someone to help me.

他们可不会那么大声地抱怨我雇人做船员、维持船只运转要花多少钱。

They wouldn’t complain so loudly about how much it costs me to hire a crew and keep the ship running.

雇人去收拾那些混蛋要多少钱？

How much would it cost to hire someone to take care of those bastards?

船长威廉森只要把船上的货物卸轻一些，就会拿出一大笔钱，雇人帮忙把船拖下来。

Captain Williamson would pay a handsome sum to hire people to help pull the ship down, as long as he could lighten its cargo first.
