Two days after the computer was bought, Lu Tao processed some orders in addition to making some reports commonly used by the company, but on this day, he encountered something that made it difficult for him, because he received a call from the foreign trade company that had signed the contract before, saying that he had sent him an email and asked him to confirm it quickly.

Now there is no network in the dormitory, although he bought a notebook, but this dial-up Internet access is not cheap, and he has no intention of installing it, and even the Exchange mailbox he applied for before has not logged in once. The matter was urgent, so Lu Tao hurriedly ran to Zhang Jiankai's Internet café and went directly to the Internet to check it.

There was an email in the mailbox, and the content of the letter was like this:

Manager Lu: Hello!

RY20000513 the amount of this foreign trade contract is too small, 100% of the letter of credit is opened, of which 5% is paid by the acceptance report. If you open a letter of credit in this way, the bank deducts the handling fee after the 5% is basically gone, so our company and your company negotiate, the letter of credit will be opened 100% without leaving 5%, please sign a letter of commitment with our company, if the product has quality problems, then your company will refund 5% of the total amount of the contract to our company. In addition, please confirm the letter of credit below, thank you.

He didn't know much about foreign trade, so he had to dig out the contract signed before and look at it accordingly.

The amount of this contract is only more than 6,000 US dollars, which is about 50,000 yuan according to the exchange rate, which is indeed a relatively small amount.

"Really, I have to toss for a long time for a little thing, and I don't know much about it, but if I do, I guess it will be much faster to do. Lu Tao muttered to himself.

I didn't have time to sigh slowly, the following is the letter of commitment sent by the foreign trade company, and Lu Tao continued to read it. Now he has only one person, there is no way, he has already made it very clear when he borrowed the name of Zhengheng Company, there is an advance plus share, and Lu Tao is responsible for the contract, supply and acceptance in the middle.

The first line does not say anything, it is the name of the supplier and the buyer, marking both parties A and B, and then the specific terms of the letter of commitment.

In business, everything that can be written on paper must be written clearly as much as possible, and there can be no ambiguity, otherwise there will be a real problem, at that time, it is all based on the written contract, and people will not tell you anything like that, so Lu Tao looked very carefully.

"When receiving a letter or call from the user to respond to the quality problem, we guarantee to reply within 24 hours, and send service personnel within 2 working days to arrive at the scene as soon as possible to solve the problem. ”

"Well, this was all told to the teachers and manufacturers at the time, and there is no problem. Lu Tao nodded after reading the first one.

The next is about quality assurance and service commitments, such as the warranty period is free of charge for three years after acceptance, the specific measures of the service, and the service after the warranty period involves the replacement of accessories, delivery date and location, etc.

After reading it, Lu Tao felt that there was nothing wrong with the letter of commitment, it was all the most basic, and it was not a difficult thing to do. In fact, one of the most important ones is about the payment method.

"Payment method: 100% L/C, if the product has quality problems, then your company will refund 5% of the total contract amount to Party B. ”

You must know that the completion of a single business, for the selling party, the money is only completed when it is received in hand, and all kinds of strange things may happen before it arrives.

"5% of the total amount, isn't it 500 yuan?" As long as it is not according to the five percent of the entire project, it is not a big deal, Lu Tao directly agreed.

Of course, he still needs to print it out later, and then let Zhengheng Company stamp it, which also takes time.

After reading the letter of commitment, Lu Tao began to look at the letter of credit again.

"Let me go, this Nima is all in English?" Lu Tao looked at the dense words on it, and couldn't help but burst into a foul language.

APPLICATION FOR IRREVOCABLE

DOCUMENTARY CREDIT

To: China Construction BANK CO.，Limitied DATE2000-9-19

Subject to ICC Uniforms and Practice for Documentary Credits(Latest Version)， and to the terms and conditions overleaf， please issue an irrevocable documentary credit with terms stated below：

Looking at these English, Lu Tao only felt that his head was big for a while, his English was not good before, otherwise he would not have asked Yan Chun to help him make up for it during the fourth-level exam, and when he read some literature in his previous life, it was basically translated one by one against the English dictionary. If you really say that you know better, that is, some chemical words, and a single one may be able to guess the approximate meaning, which is all connected, then you are really blind.

It seems that everything you do has to be professional, and if you don't understand it, even if you spend a lot of time, you may not be able to get it right.

Lu Tao thought in his heart, there was no way, this matter was really urgent, so he had to search for English words on the Internet one by one, and then translate them sentence by sentence.

In fact, according to the normal process, it is generally safer to stock up after receiving the letter of credit, otherwise once you prepare the goods, and the letter of credit is delayed, it will have an impact on the later stage. And the letter of credit also has a term, and Lu Tao didn't pay special attention to this part because he didn't know about it before.

Fortunately, he is in the business of his own school, and there is no problem with the contract and the project itself, and there is basically no possibility of canceling the contract later, and the relationship is not particularly big.

Rao is so, after an afternoon of inquiry and study, he also has a general understanding of this area, at least for the future, he also has some experience.

After making sure that it was correct, Lu Tao breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "It seems that in the future, it will be better to recruit people to specialize in these things, and every time I do it myself, my head is a little big." ”

Early the next morning, Lu Tao went directly to Zhengheng Company to seal it, then faxed the letter of commitment, and went to the test center to visit the use of the atomic absorption spectrophotometer he had purchased before, and then ran to the customer by the way, and then returned to school.

Not long after returning to school, Lu Tao just wanted to rest for a while, Wan Song came to the dormitory to find him again, saying that the hometown meeting to welcome this class of freshmen was in the evening, and Lu Tao had promised to go before, so it was naturally difficult to refuse directly at this time, and he really wanted to relax.

"That, can you bring your family at night?" Remembering that he hadn't seen Yan Chun in the past two days, Lu Tao couldn't help asking.

"Of course, the fellow will go to the fellow countryman, the reason why Lu Tao asked this is mainly because he wants to take Yan Chun with him, anyway, there are not many people in the fellow club every year, and one more person will just have more pairs of chopsticks, and it's a big deal to make a double share by himself when the time comes.

"Of course you can, and I didn't say that I wouldn't let my family members go. Wan Song didn't think about it, and replied directly.

"When and where?"

"A pot of incense, 7 o'clock in the evening, senior brother, I heard that there is a school sister this time, but unfortunately, I didn't pick it up at the train station at that time. Wan Song smiled.
