"How much do you wanna buy na?
I ask you"
“我问你,你想不想要?
想要就给我个价!”
一句I ask you
真是可爱又想笑哇,哈哈哈
秀水街到底是什么地方呢?
秀水街是家商场,位于北京房价12万+/平米的商圈地段,临近使馆区。以高度仿真的“名牌”文明的国际旅游购物市场,啥都有,且深得老外宠爱。
据说,由于这里卖的丝绸很有名,加上经常接待外国游客,因此有了个洋气的英文名,叫Silk Street Market!
这里的摊主基本都会比划着英语,甚至几分钟内切换几种语言,会日语,德语,法语,粤语,闽南语招呼顾客的店主也大有人在。他们麻利地和前来购物的外国客商讨价还价。

纽约时报这么描述秀水街:
Any tourist who has stepped foot in this city's famous silk street market can testify that it is home to some of the wiliest, most tenacious vendors who ever tried to palm off a fake handbag on a naive foreigner.
游客只要去了北京的秀水街市场,就会发现,这里到处都是口齿伶俐、锲而不舍的店主,把假冒的包包卖给天真的老外。
现在越来越多的人知道,在秀水淘东西杀价要狠,态度要坚定,以至于很多老外比中国人砍价还厉害。
老外们甚至还出了很详细的“中国式砍价”攻略。
