聽力每日練習(xí) listen 2156 Barter?trade

 
2-- That's too bad. Your country is a big market for our grain and so we will also suffer a great loss if you import nothing. Maybe we can find a way out.
 
1-- What do you think of conducting a barter trade?
 
2-- That can be a solution. What commodities do you have to exchange for our grain？
 
1--There are so many goods. Our country exports huge quantities of timber, wool, leather and mutton. Which commodity would you prefer?
 
2-- We would like to exchange our grain for your timber.
 
1-- Excellent. The total import of grain would roughly equal your purchase of timber.
 
2--It would be a little difticult for us to sign two contracts simultaneously.
 
1-- We could sign two sales contracts in a month, one for grain and the other for timber.
 
2--Then the L/C should be opened against one another though not necessarily at the same time.
 
1-- What tolerance will be allowed for the counter purchase?
 
2--We usually allow a tolerance of plus or minus 10％.
 
1--Then we have solved the problem of our shortage Of foreign exchange.
