推销员 1
两个推销员走进一个小区。
高个儿推销员问矮个儿推销员,"师傅,我们今天的销售目标是多少?"
矮个儿回答,"零。"
高个儿愕然。他心想,"听人说,你是公司最棒的推销员,怎么会没有销售目标呢?"
他们走进一幢楼房。开始一户户敲门。
门开了,女户主一脸防备。
"女士,您好!"矮个儿说。
"我什么都不买,请走。"女户主欲关门。
"正好,我们也什么都不卖,我们只是来送免费的样品。"
女户主扬了扬眉毛,"什么样品?"
"万用清洁剂。"矮个儿说着,递过去一个精致的小瓶。女人接过来仔细看了看。
"如果你能帮我们一个忙,试用我们的产品,并且,在这份评估单上打分,我们会再送你一瓶,以示感谢。"矮个儿继续说。"你有一个星期的时间试用它。"
女户主欣然接过了测试单。

The Salesman 1
Two salesmen walked into a neighbourhood.
The tall one asked the short one,”Sir, what is our sales target today?”
The short one said, “Zero.”
The tall one was surprised. He thought,”People said that you are the best salesman. How could you not have a sales target?”
They entered a building and started to knock door to door.
The door was open, the house owner appeared with cautious look.
“How are you, Madam!” The short one said.
“I don’t want to buy anything, please leave.” She told them that while closing her door.
“That’s about right, we are not selling anything either. We’re here to give out free samples.”
The woman raised her eyebrow, “What sample is it??”
“All purpose cleansing solution.” He passed on an elegant-looking bottle to the woman. She took it in her hand and checked on it carefully.
“If you can do us a favour and test the product for us, fill the test report, we will give you a second free sample to show our appreciation.” The short one continued. “You got a week’s time to test it.”
The woman happily accepted the test.
