Sir=先生 or Ma'am=女士 "Sir/Ma'am, thank you for your time. Take care." You can insert their last name in the "sir complex". For instance, the person you are writing to is named Zhang = 张先生。If you watch Hong Kong action movies, you'd often hear people regard others as "张sir""李sir", and that is following the same grammatical logic. Thank you for your time could be directly translated as谢谢你的时间,but upon first glance to a native, it might be a bit confusing. I think it would sound more natural if you spell out the modifier here, i.e. thank you for taking the time (to help me). Then it would be谢谢你的帮助(thank you for your help), or if you care to write it even longer, 非常感谢你花了这么长时间帮我( thank you very much for taking out so much of your precious time to help me out here). "Take care" can be succinctly translated as 保重。"Hope you are well" = 祝您身体健康, 一切顺利(wish you good health; with your everything carry out smoothly). Here's your thing fully translated: (张)先生,非常感谢你花了这么长时间帮我。请多多保重,祝您身体健康、 一切顺利! note: I opted for a literal, "respective tone" path while translating this. Casual speech can be a bit different, but I believe the intrinsic logic is somewhat similar.
