像美国人一样说英语:[11] Bob drives a hard bargain

lesson 11 bob drives a hard bargain

carol from the village market calls bob to discuss susan's scrumptious cookies. carol and bob discuss how much bob will receive for each cookie.

carol: hi bob. how's it going?

bob: fine thanks, carol. how are you?

carol: can't complain. bob, i've had a chance to crunch some numbers. i can pay you 50 cents per cookie.

bob: that's out of the question. at that price, it's not worth our while. the ingredients alone cost us 30 cents per cookie.

carol: okay, let me sweeten the deal -- 60 cents per cookie?

bob: carol, my wife and i need to make a living from this business.

carol: okay, okay, you've twisted my arm. i'll pay you 75 cents per cookie. take it or leave it!

bob: now you're talking! we'll take it.

carol: you drive a hard bargain, bob.
