职业英语对话

Salesperson:I'm not sure if a discount of 20% is workable for us. Our profit margin is quite low already. We're not making a lot of money out of this product. You know, everything is so expensive now. We’re paying a high price for raw materials. Our costs have increased by 20% in the last quarter, and this is really affecting our business.
Customer:So, you won't be able to give us a 20% discount because of your low profit margin and high raw material costs.
Salesperson:Yes, but if you buy more from us, say, about 20% more than the initial number, we can give you a 10% discount.
Customer:20% more is 5,000 units and we can get a 10% discount. Okay, thanks.

售货员：我不肯定我们能不能給你打八折。我们的利润率本来已经很低。我们没有在这款产品中赚很多钱。你也明白，现在百物腾贵。我们是以高价购买原材料的。我们的成本在上一季度上升了20％，而这确实影响了我们的业务。
顾客：所以，因为你们的利润很低以及原材料的成本很高，你无法给我们打八折。
售货员：对，但如果你再多买一些，假设比原本的数量增加20％，我们可以给你额外的10％折扣。
顾客：增加20％即是5,000件，那样我们就可以享有额外的10％折扣？好的，谢谢。
