您好,我想用现金付,只有一张一百的。麻烦您找我零钱,可以吗?谢谢您!
In English
Hello, I'd like to pay with cash, but I only have a one-hundred-yuan note. Could you give me the change, please? Thank you!
Pinyin
Nín hǎo, wǒ xiǎng yòng xiànjīn fù, zhǐ yǒu yì zhāng yìbǎi de. Máfan nín zhǎo wǒ língqián, kěyǐ ma? Xièxie nín!
Good to know
Count your change on the counter, in view of the vendor — that's normal here, not rude. ¥10 and ¥20 notes are the most useful to carry.
