Discussion about shipment 裝船談判A: We hope you agree to ship by installment.
希望你們能同意分批裝運。
B: How many times?
分幾批?
A: 4 times. The loading term is from March to July next year. It will be transacted once every month. The first delivery is in March.
分四批,裝船期限為明年3月到6月,隔一個月交易一批,第一批是3月。
B: How to arrange the quantity?
數量怎么安排呢?
A: If you do not have any special requirements, we will make an average allocation. So it will be 40 tons each time.
如果你們沒什么特別要求的話,就平均分配,每批40噸。
B: It is not good on average allocation. How about 60 tons for the first load, then 30 tons each?
平均不太好吧,第一批交60 噸,后兩批交30噸吧。
A: No problem. I will contact the manufacturer later.
應該沒什么大問題吧,回頭我跟廠家聯系一下看看。
B: Thanks.
謝謝。“loading term”意為“裝船期限”,“term”這里是“期限”的意思。“How about”是“……怎么樣”的意思,用于提出意見,例如:How about we meet at 7 pm?(我們晚上7點見面如何?)
