菜市口

王春丽说菜市口的纯金饰品的销售额相当稳定。

“但是价格上涨之后，来这里购买黄金珠宝的人反而更多了，”北京菜市口百货商场的营业员李祥说。

"( But ) more customers came here to buy gold jewellery after the price increase ," says Li Xiang , a clerk at Beijing Caishikou Department Store .

菜市口百货是北京最大的黄金珠宝零售商。在中秋前夕，售卖用作收藏或装饰的金月饼已成为该商场的传统。

The selling of gold mooncake as collectors'items or decorations before the Mid-Autumn Day has become a tradition at Caishikou Department Store , the largest local gold and jewelry retailer .

“由于人们并不甘愿从自己兜里掏钱，我们并不指望能够做的有多好。”王春丽，北京菜市口大众商品经理如是说。

" We didn 't expect to do so well because people were reluctant to dig into their pockets ," said Wang Chunli , general manager of Beijing Caishikou General Merchandise .
