[00:56.72]J:好吧,那你还是向我说说要我来看的这块地皮的最新信息吧!
[00:59.74]G:O.K. It's 18 acres in the northern part of the state, near Seattle. It's unimproved land,
[01:03.45]G:好的。这块地皮占地18公倾,在加州的北部,离西雅图很近,虽还未开发。
[01:07.16]but the location is perfect-with excellent access to main roads as well as to a railroad line that extends the full length of one side of the property.
[01:12.02]但地理位置相当不错------交通便捷,靠近公路干线,有一面还紧靠一条铁路。
[01:16.88]At $200 000, it's by far our best buy.
[01:19.27]售价是20万美元,是到目前为止给出的最低价。

[01:25.32]J:花20万美元买一块还未开发的地皮?给的价也有点高了,乔治。而且占地18公顷。

[01:33.44]我们永远得不到董事会的同意。
[01:34.64]G:Well, I think it's worth it, even at that price. But I did contact the owner,
[01:37.48]G:但我觉得,就是花上20万美元,仍然值。况且我还与土地的拥有者联系过了,
[01:40.31]and he may be willing to lower his price to $180 000... maybe less.
[01:43.29]他或许愿意降低价格,降到18万.....或者再少要一些.

[01:52.52]J:嗯... 我们把要价定在15万吧!那块土地的主人也许会还价,这样的话,我们或许能把价格最后定在16至17万之间。
[01:58.78]G:I'll leave everything regarding bids and counterbids up to you.
[02:01.26]G:我会把出价,还价这一切事情都交给你办的。

[02:10.02]为了吸引新的产业,加州发行了工业收益债券。
[02:13.02]The proceeds from the bonds would be made available to us at a very low interest rate to help finance the construction.

[02:25.21]Who knows, George? If this property is as good as you say,
[02:27.17]谁也说不准,乔治,你说呢?如果这块地皮像你说的那么好,
[02:29.13]we may be on the way to a real estate purchase.

[02:39.56]In fact, that's how I lost my first choice. An investor must have heard I was interested,
[02:42.61]实际上,我因此丢了首选的那块地方。有一个投资商一定是听说了我对那块地皮感兴趣,
[02:45.67]and before I could even contact you and Peter, he had already signed a deal with the owner.
[02:48.67]就在我与你和彼得联系之前,抢先与那块土地的拥有者签了合同。
[02:51.68]J:Well, in that case, let's go and inspect the property - ... all 18 acres of it...
[02:54.46]J:那,这样的话,我们赶快去视察那块土地-------18公顷的一大地...
