A:I’m glad to hear that.

B:It’s our pleasure.Is there anything else I can do for you,Mr.Clive?

A:I’m buying for chain department stores in Canada.They are interested in Chinese woolen carpets.I’d like to make an inquiry.Could you introduce me to the person in charge of this line?

B:Certainly.Have you visited www．alibaba.com first? There are dozens of suppliers of carpets and rugs.

A:You see,that’s the problem.I’ve visited it and I am really confused.Could you introduce me a reliable one so that I can go and visit the physical places where carpets are made.

B:Yes.Then I’ll make an appointment for you with Mr.Li of the Xinjiang Yilong Carpet Company.I know they supply wonderful woolen carpets with silk blended at wholesale factory prices.

A:Thank you very much.
