这位邻居碰巧又是一位律师。
The neighbor happened to be a lawyer.
这起窃盗激怒了这位肉商。于是他就打电话给他的邻居说:
Incensed at the theft,the butcher called up his neighter and said,
“喂,如果你的狗儿从我的肉店偷走了一块烤肉,你会为这块肉的损失费用负责任吗?”
"Hey,if your dog stole a rasat from my butcher shop,would you be liable for the coast of the meat?"
这名律师回答说:“当然会呀,这块烤肉多少钱呢?”
The lawyer replied,"Of course,how much was the roast?"
“八元。”几天后,这位肉商收到一封邮件,里面有一张八元的支票。
"$8."Afew days later the butcher received a check in the mail for $8.
这张支票却附上了一张发票,上面写着:
Attached to it was an invoice that read:
“法律咨询服务 :一百五十元。”
