Sunday, 11 am. The first year high school students were still on break.
The snail business was usually from afternoon to night. Chen Yu's parents had just woken up and were having breakfast.
"Mum, how's the business?"
"Not bad. It's just that sometimes we stay up too late."
"Mum, you don't have to stay up after 12 am. Didn't you hire two aunties?"
"Even if I hire them, I still have to stay up. I am the Conch Beauty. If I am not around, how can I be called the Conch Beauty?"
"Huh … …"
Chen Yu did not know whether to laugh or cry. His mother was addicted to being the Conch Beauty.
Chen Simian said: "Xiao Yu, your mother has become a celebrity these days. Other than eating the snails, many customers also want to take photos with your mother."
"There's such a thing?"
"Yes."
"Then why don't we set up a photo business and charge 10 RMB for one photo? Won't we be rich?"
"10 RMB for one photo? Xiao Yu, what kind of lousy idea is this? People like to eat our snails, that's why they want to take photos with you. If you charge them 10 RMB, I don't think the snail business will be able to continue. "
"I'm just saying."
Chen Yu reminded him: "But no matter what, it's better not to be too tired."
"Don't worry. Your mother knows."
Although Chen Yu said this, he also knew that his mother did not take this matter to heart.
Thinking about it, it was also true.
In the past, when he was working as a worker, although the income was not bad, he was working for others.
Now, he had started a small business and even became a boss.
No matter how much he earned, he was more motivated than before.
Furthermore, the snail business was doing so well now. His parents would not stop. They might even be enjoying it.
"Xiao Yu, don't worry about the business. Let me tell you, your mother is still waiting for the profits to increase the business. She might even open it in the city. "
Chen Simian laughed: "Your mother is thinking too much. How can she open such a simple snail in the city?"
"Chen Simian, what's wrong with our snails? Our snails can't be opened in the city. The people in the city are more precious than the people in our small county. Don't they eat snails? "
Zhang Wenxiu stared at Chen Simian and said.
"It's not that we don't eat snails. I'm just saying that our strength is limited. How can we be a match for some of the businessmen in the city?"
"Not necessarily. Didn't we go to the city last time? I think the supper in the city is not necessarily better than the supper in our small county."
"Alright, alright, alright. You're right. But don't think about it. Our snail shop has only been open for a short while, and we haven't even made a profit yet. If you want to go to the city, I think it will take at least five years. "
Chen Yu listened from the side and didn't say anything.
As for whether his parents wanted to live in a small county or move to the city, he was undecided.
However, as he listened, Chen Yu had a huge idea.
"Dad, I don't think we need five years."
"Oh, Xiao Yu, you also agree with your mother?"
"Mom has such good taste. Of course I agree with Mom."
"Old Chen, look, your son is so smart."
Zhang Wenxiu touched Chen Yu's head.
"Alright, alright. You and your son are so smart. I won't say anything."
Chen Simian smiled bitterly. He knew that he was no match for the mother and son, so he didn't say anything more.
"Dad, I'm serious."
Chen Yu said, "Mom was right just now. In fact, our snails can indeed be opened in the city."
"I didn't say we can't. But we don't have the time or energy now. Even if we do, we don't have the money. "
Chen Simian spread out his hands.
Even if they opened this snail shop in a small county like Shin Fung, they had spent all their money.
How could they have the money to go to the city?
"Dad, we don't have the money. But we don't have the money, but others do."
"Others?"
"Yes."
"They have the money. If they have the money, they will give it to us."
"That's right."
Chen Yu nodded. "Dad, I think we can register a trademark for our Snail Beauty first."
"Trademark?"
"Xiao Yu, what is a trademark?"
"A trademark is the symbol of our products. Just like your mobile phone, there is a China Mobile logo on it. That is a trademark."
"Oh, this is a trademark. But our Snail Beauty doesn't have such a logo. "
"It's okay. We can use our shop name as a trademark."
"Then what's the use of registering this trademark?"
"It's very useful. After registering the trademark, others can no longer use the same trademark as ours. For example, if our shop is called Snail Beauty, others can't call it Snail Beauty anymore. If they call it Snail Beauty, we can sue them. "
"That's not very useful."
Chen Simian didn't care. "Although our shop name is okay, no one is willing to use the same shop name as yours."
"Dad, it doesn't mean that there won't be any in the future. What if our shop becomes popular in the future and others copy it?"
"Xiao Yu is right. If others also call it Snail Beauty, then we will suffer a great loss."
Zhang Wenxiu quickly said.
Of course, Zhang Wenxiu said this, but Chen Yu knew that his parents still didn't understand what he meant.
"Dad, Mom, what I mean is, we are not just registering a trademark. If we register a trademark, other than preventing others from copying us, we can also use the trademark to make money. "
"A trademark can also make money?"
"Of course."
"How do we make money?"
"Join us."
Chen Yu pointed out the main topic.
"Join us."
Although Zhang Wenxiu and Chen Simian didn't know much about joining a company, they still knew a little about it.
"I understand."
Chen Simian thought for a while and said. "Xiao Yu, you mean to let others pay to join our brand, right?"
"Yes, we register a trademark to register our brand. If someone joins our Snail Beauty, we don't need five years. We can open dozens of shops in three years. No, we can open hundreds of shops in one year. "
This idea was not something that Chen Yu came up with on a whim.
In fact, a brand like Chinese food was very mature in the future.
Real Kung Fu, Auntie's Dumplings, Yonghe Soy Milk, etc., were all famous Chinese food brands.
At the same time, their franchisees were all over the country.
If Snail Beauty wanted to open shops one by one in the city and all over the country, they might not be able to do it in 100 years.
But if they joined, it would be much easier.
It was just that this idea of joining was not bad, but it was not so easy to operate.
It could even be said that it was almost impossible.
Chen Simian shook his head and said. "Xiao Yu, I think we should forget about it. Who would want to join a small shop like ours?"
"Yes, I think those franchisees are all famous companies in the country. Not to mention famous in the country, even in Shin Fung, not everyone knows about us. Some people in the town don't even know about us. "
"It's almost time. I still have to go to the shop with your dad."
"Xiao Yu, study hard. Don't think too much about the shop."
Chen Yu's parents packed their things and went to the shop.
Chen Yu didn't care.
Although it was indeed unrealistic now.
