Stanley: Happy to meet you again.

Borisov: The pleasure is mine. Let's get down to business. I'd like to start with the price. Mr. Stanley, I 'm sorry to say it is not accept­able to us. We think you have quoted a very high price.

Stanley: Oh, ... per unit is quite a reasonable price. As you know we have improved the model. And besides the price includes export packing.

Borisov: Yes, we know that. But we also know that the prices on the world market for this type of pumps are lower than yours.

Stanley: But the quality of our pumps is higher and we’ve delivered a lot of pumps to different countries of the world at this price.

Borisov: And still, Mr. Stanley, we find the price a bit high. I'd like to stress that it's our trial order with your company and if we are satisfied with our transaction you can expect repeat orders from us.

Stanley: Well, the only thing we can do is to give you a discount of 2% off the value of the contract.

Borisov: Fine. That settles the price problem.

Stanley: And how about the manner of payment? I hope payment by a Letter of Credit against shipping documents will suit you.

Borisov: Yes, it will.

Stanley: Good. You are to open a L/C with the Moscow Narodny Bank after our Notification of the Readiness of the goods for shipment.

Borisov: All right. One more thing, Mr. Stanley. Our people would like to visit your manufacturing plant, if it is possible.

Stanley: No problem. We can easily arrange it and I myself will take you there. We'll do our best to make your visit useful.

Borisov: Thank you, Mr. Stanley.

Stanley: Thank you, Mr. Borisov. We are looking forward to establishing good business relations with your company. You are welcome to our company any time.

A visit to the plant

When Mr. Stanley and the Russian engineers arrived in Glasgow they hired a taxi to the Central Hotel where Mr. White, the production manager of the plant, had reserved accommodation for them.

At a quarter to 9 Mr. White's car picked them up at the hotel and took them to the plant. Mr. Stanley introduced Mr. Borisov and Mr. Kozin to Mr. White and told him that the Russian engineers wanted to see the production shops of the plant.

^ White: If you like I can show you round the whole plant, so that you can get a good idea of the range of our products.

Borisov: We’d be delighted to, if it doesn’t take too much of your time!

White: I'll be happy to help you and answer any of your queries. I'll lead the way.

(In the plant.)

White: This is the assembly shop and here you can see the finished products. We produce pumps of high capacity for different applications. Look, here is the latest model. We modified it last year.

Borisov: How does it compare with the previous model?

White: That's a good question. It's easier to operate and more reliable as compared with the previous model. Besides, its capacity is higher than the capacity of the pumps of other companies. We export this model to many countries of the world.

Stanley: I say, John, Mr. Borisov told me on our way here that he wanted to see your test department as well. Is it possible?

White: Yes, of course. We thoroughly test every pump and we've had very good reports from the customers both in our country and abroad. This is where we test our pumps. In fact they are starting a test. If you want to see the test we must go to the shop right now not to miss it.
