下面是一封对试订货的肯定答复：

Dear Ms Lee

Your twenty cases of mohair rugs should arrive within six weeks. We sincerely appreciate your confidence in our products and hope this is the first of many orders for years to come.

The goods will be packed in twenty special waterproof¹ paper lined cases and dispatched tomorrow by rail to Xingang for shipment by S. S. Huangshan, which leaves for Montreal on August 13. The estimated time of arrival is around April 20.

Your choice of our CN-028 mohair rugs is excellent. These rugs have been made from carefully selected wool and you will find that they are greatly valued. The long, fine silken hair is as hard-wearing as it is attractive and it does not soil easily. We are sure that your first deal on the consignment² supports our claim of selling the best rugs at their most competitive prices.

To show our appreciation³ for your order, we have include in the shipment several samples of materials used for making other rugs and carpets. Please indicate your interest on the enclosed order form. We are looking forward to more opportunities of serving you.

Sincerely yours
