"Hello?" "Honey, It's me. Are you at the club?" "Yes." "Great! I am at the mall 2 blocks from where you are. I saw a beautiful mink2 coat... It is absolutely gorgeous!! Can I buy it?" "What's the price?" "Only $150,000." "Well, OK, go ahead and get it, if you like it that much..."
"Ahhh and I also stopped by the Mercedes dealership3 and saw the 2004 models. I saw one I really liked. I spoke4 with the salesman and he gave me a really good price... and since we need to exchange the BMW that we bought last year..." "What price did he quote you?" "Only $60, 000..."
"OK, but for that price I want it with all the options." "Great! Before we hang up, something else..." "What?" "It might look like a lot, but I was reconciling your bank account and...I stopped by the real estate agent this morning and I saw the house we had looked at last year. It's on sale!! Remember? The one with a pool, English Garden, acre of park area, beachfront property..."
"How much are they asking?" "Only $450,000... a magnificent price, and I see that we have that much in the bank to cover..." "Well, then go ahead and buy it, but just bid $420, 000. OK?" "OK, sweetie...Thanks! I'll see you later!! I love you!!!" "Bye...I do too..."
The man hangs up, closes the phone's flap and raises his hand while holding the phone and asks to all those present: "Does anyone know who this phone belongs to?"
在一家私人俱樂(lè)部的更衣室中,有幾個(gè)剛剛鍛煉完的男人。忽然,一張長(zhǎng)椅上的手機(jī)響了。一個(gè)男人拿了起來(lái),于是有了下面這段對(duì)話:
“喂?”“親愛(ài)的,是我。你在俱樂(lè)部嗎?”“是啊。”“好極了!我在離你兩個(gè)街區(qū)遠(yuǎn)的商店里。我看上了一件非常漂亮的貂皮外套……絕對(duì)完美!!我可以買(mǎi)嗎?”“多少錢(qián)?”“才1,500美圓。”“好的,可以,買(mǎi)吧,只要你喜歡……”
“對(duì)了,在梅塞德斯代理商那里,我還看到了幾款2004年的車(chē)型。我看上了其中一款。我問(wèn)那位銷(xiāo)售人員,他給了我一個(gè)超低價(jià)……既然我們想要換掉去年的那輛寶馬……”“他報(bào)價(jià)多少?”“才6萬(wàn)美圓……”
“好的,但是按照這個(gè)價(jià)格,我要所有的可選配件。”“太棒了!在掛電話之前,還有一件事……”“什么事?”“這看起來(lái)要一大筆錢(qián),我正在算你的銀行賬目,還有……我在房產(chǎn)代理商那里待了一會(huì)兒,看見(jiàn)了我們?nèi)ツ昕催^(guò)的那座別墅。正在減價(jià)呢!!還記得嗎?有游泳池、英式花園、大區(qū)域的停車(chē)場(chǎng)、海濱地產(chǎn)……”
“他們出價(jià)多少?”“才45萬(wàn)美圓……多便宜的價(jià)格啊,而且我看到我們的銀行里還有可以支付的錢(qián)……”“好的,那就去把它買(mǎi)下來(lái)吧,但是只出價(jià)42萬(wàn)美圓,好嗎?”“好的,親愛(ài)的……謝謝你!一會(huì)兒見(jiàn)!!我愛(ài)你!!!”“再見(jiàn)……我也愛(ài)你……”
男人掛斷電話,合上手機(jī)蓋,舉起握著手機(jī)的手,問(wèn)在場(chǎng)的人:“哪位知道這部手機(jī)是誰(shuí)的?”
