Well, Mr. White, we've settled everything in connection with this transaction except the question of payment in yen. Now can you explain to me how to make payment in yen?

懷特先生.除了日元付款問題外.我們已經(jīng)談妥了有關(guān)這筆交易的所有事項.現(xiàn)在.能不能請你解釋一下如何用日元付款?

Many of our business friends in England, France, Switzerland, Italy and Germany are paying for our exports in Japan currency. It is quite easy to do so.

我們在英國.法國.瑞士.意大利及德國的許多商界朋友都用日元支付我們的出口貨物.這很容易做到.

I know some of them are doing that. But this is new to me. I've never made payment in yen before. It is convenient to make payment in pound sterling, but I may have some difficulty in making payment in yen.

我知道有些人是這么做.但對我來說.這是新做法.我從來沒用過日元付款.用英鎊付款很方便,但用日元付款可能會有些麻煩.

Sure you can. Several of the banks in London, such as the National Westminster Bank and Barclays Bank are in a position to open letters of credit in yen. They'll do so against our sales confirmation or contract.
