PETS-2每日对话练习355
Pat Jr.: Sure. We could model your kitchen after ours-it's quite efficient.
Jin: And when you visit Taiwan, we could do the final fee negotiating.
Pat Jr.: Of course, we'll need our lawyers to finalize all contractual details.
Jin: I realize that. Can I ask you one question? How'd you get into this business?
Pat Jr.: Well, Grandpa Pat started it in 1932. He threw some cooked steak and onions into a hot dog bun. A taxi driver bought it for ten cents 1 and the rest is history!
(续上期,下期续) 小帕特:没问题。可以依照我们厨房的样式打造你的厨房——我们的厨房相当有效率。
阿 敬:等你来台湾,我们可以针对费用做最后的讨论。
小帕特:当然,我们会需要律师帮我们敲定全部的合约细节。
阿 敬:我了解。我可以问你一个问题吗?你们是怎么进入这一行的?
小帕特:这个嘛,我爷爷帕特在一九三二年开了这家店。他在热狗面包里放了些煮熟的牛排肉和洋葱。一位出租车司机花了十分钱买,接下来的事大家都知道了!
