There is a dialogue between you and a book seller about buying a book
Buyer: Good morning. Do you have a copy of The Alchemist by Paulo Coelho?
Seller: Good morning! Yes, we do. Would you like a hardcover or paperback edition?
Buyer: I think paperback will be fine. How much is it?
Seller: The paperback costs 400 taka, and the hardcover is 700 taka.
Buyer: That’s reasonable. Is the paperback an original print or a local edition?
Seller: It’s a good quality local edition, very popular among students and readers.
Buyer: Alright. Can you show me the copy?
Seller: Sure, here it is. The print is clear, and the paper quality is nice.
Buyer: Yes, it looks good. Do you also have books by Rabindranath Tagore?
Seller: Of course, we have a full section of Tagore’s works, both in Bengali and in English translations.
Buyer: Great. I want Gitanjali in English. Do you have it?
Seller: Yes, we do. This is a pocket edition, and this one is a deluxe edition with a hard cover.
Buyer: Hmm, I’ll take the pocket edition. How much is it?
Seller: That one is 250 taka only.
Buyer: Nice. By the way, do you have story books for children too?
Seller: Yes, we have fairy tales, fables, and educational story books for different age groups.
Buyer: I need something for my younger brother. He is 10 years old.
Seller: Then I suggest this collection of Aesop’s Fables. The language is simple, and it has colorful pictures.
Buyer: Oh, that’s perfect. How much does it cost?
Seller: Only 300 taka. It’s one of our bestsellers for children.
Buyer: I’ll take that too. Do you give any discount if I buy more than one book?
Seller: Yes, if you buy three books or more, I can give you a 10% discount.
Buyer: That’s good. So far I’ve chosen three books. Maybe I’ll take one more. Do you have any self-help books?
Seller: Yes, we have Atomic Habits by James Clear, The Power of Now by Eckhart Tolle, and some others.
Buyer: I’ve heard a lot about Atomic Habits. Can I see it?
Seller: Certainly. Here is a fresh copy. It’s 550 taka, but with the discount, it will be cheaper.
Buyer: The cover looks nice. Okay, I’ll take it. So that makes four books.
Seller: Perfect. Let me calculate the total with the discount.
Buyer: Alright, please do.
Seller: The total is 1,500 taka after discount.
Buyer: That’s fair. Here’s the money.
Seller: Thank you! Let me pack your books nicely in a bag.
Buyer: Thanks a lot. Do you have a membership or loyalty card for regular customers?
Seller: Yes, we do. If you register, you’ll get extra discounts on future purchases.
Buyer: That’s interesting. Please sign me up.
Seller: Done! Here’s your card. We look forward to seeing you again.
Buyer: Thank you. I’ll definitely come back. Goodbye.
Seller: Goodbye, and happy reading!
