English Joke: 在商言商

All About The Businessman

A businessman walks into a bank in New York City and asks for the loan officer.
He says he is going to Europe on business for two weeks and needs to borrow$5,000.
The bank officer says the bank will need some kind of security for such a loan.
So the businessman hands over the keys to a Rolls Royce parked on the street in front of the bank.
Everything checks out, and the bank agrees to accept the car as collateral for the loan.
An employee drives the Rolls Royce into the bank's underground garage and parks it there.
Two weeks later, the businessman returns, repays the $5,000 and the interest, which comes to $15.41.
The loan officer says, "We are very happy to have had your business, and this transaction has worked out very nicely, but we are a little puzzled. While you were away, we checked you out and found that you are a multimillionaire. What puzzles us is why would you bother to borrow $5,000?"
The businessman replied, “Where else in New York can I park my car for two weeks for 15 bucks?"

在商言商
一位生意人走進紐約的一家銀行找放貸人員。
他說他要去歐洲洽商2星期需要貸款5000元。
放款人員說這樣的貸款，銀行方面需要抵押品。
生意人交出一輛停在銀行前面的勞斯萊斯的車鑰匙。
都檢查過後，銀行同意把車子當成貸款的抵押品。
一位行員把勞斯萊斯停進銀行的地下車庫。
2個星期之後，生意人回來了，還了貸款5000元及利息15.41元。
放貸人員說道：「我們很高興能跟你做生意，而且這次的交易證明是非常成功的，但是我們有一個小疑問，在你離開的期間，我們調查了一下，發現你是個千萬大富翁，讓我們困惑的是你為何需要借5000元？」
生意人回答道：「在紐約，還有哪裏可以讓我停車2星期只收15塊？」
