Chapter 8: The Snail Business
"Doing business, to put it lightly, it's not easy to do any business now. ”
Chen Yu was stunned, how could this sound so familiar? It seemed that this sentence could be said at any time.
"What are you selling?"
"No, nothing. Mom, who said that business is not good, you see that uncle's business is doing very well. ”
"You mean let your dad start a clothing business?"
"The clothing business is okay, but the clothing business has a relatively large capital turnover, and there is still inventory, so forget it. ”
"Capital turnover, inventory, Xiaoyu, do you still understand this?"
Zhang Wenxiu was a little surprised.
"Mom, what's this, what's so difficult to understand this, I still know how to build an atomic bomb. ”
"Just praise you, you have to be scared, and you build an atomic bomb, you get me a tea leaf to pop out. ”
"Uh......"
Chen Yu burst into tears.
He still knows the principle of the atomic bomb, but to be honest, he really doesn't know how to make the tea bomb.
"Mom, why do you keep interrupting. However, you're right when it comes to tea eggs. We can't make clothes, we can do catering. ”
"Food?"
"Yes, Mom, you are such a good cook, and you will definitely make money from catering. ”
"Xiaoyu, do you really think it's profitable to do a catering business?"
"Really, our teacher said, now the economy is developing rapidly, the people's living standards are improving rapidly, the people take food as the sky, and the catering business is absolutely profitable. ”
"Did your teacher say that too?"
Zhang Wenxiu glanced at Chen Simian.
In fact, they originally planned to start a catering business, but they didn't expect their son to say the same.
But when he thought that he didn't have so much money in his hand, he shook his head again: "What do you know, now it is a big investment to open a restaurant, that is, you have to rent a storefront, and you have to buy a lot of catering equipment." Coupled with the fact that there are so many restaurants now, there is a lot of competition. It's good that someone comes, but if no guests come, it's a loss. ”
"Mom, listen to me. ”
Seeing his mother's eyes, Chen Yu knew that he had guessed correctly.
The parents actually just wanted to open a small restaurant.
"Okay, you say. ”
"Mom, have you calculated how much investment it will take to open a restaurant now?"
"Depending on your size, the smaller ones are about 20,000, and the larger ones are 50,000 or 60,000. Of course, there are bigger and more upscale ones, hundreds of thousands are not too little. ”
"It seems that my mother wants to open a big hotel for hundreds of thousands. ”
Chen Yule smiled.
Yes, in the future, I will definitely let my mother realize this wish.
"Skinny, huh, kidding your mother. ”
"No, no. Mom, I think you miscalculated, I don't think the cost needs to be 20,000 at all, only 10,000 at most. If you save a little, you can get it for less than 10,000 yuan. ”
"Below 10,000 yuan, rent, kitchen equipment, and decoration will cost 20,000 or 30,000 yuan, how can 10,000 yuan be done. It seems that you, a high school student, are like this, only the knowledge in books. Okay, okay, that's it, your dad has finished eating, and I still have to clean up the dishes and chopsticks. ”
Finding that Chen Yu was just talking nonsense, Zhang Wenxiu got up and cleaned up the dishes and chopsticks.
"Mom, don't worry. I'm not talking about less than 10,000 yuan, if you want to open that kind of public hotel, of course, you need 20,000 or 30,000, but if you don't open that kind of public hotel. Well, Mom, I don't open a breakfast shop for students either. What if we open a snack bar?"
"Snack bar?"
Chen Simian, who had not spoken, interjected: "What kind of snack, is it spicy?"
"No, but there are some similarities with Malatang. ”
"What's that?"
"Snails. ”
After talking for so long, Chen Yu finally pointed out the theme.
Snails are also called screws.
Many supper restaurants, including those that sell Malatang, as well as restaurants, have this dish.
Because of the spicy taste, the snail is loved by the majority of diners.
"Stir-fried snails?"
Chen Simian asked.
"It's fried snails. ”
"Just sell fried snails?"
"Yes, I only sell fried snails. ”
Chen Yu nodded.
"I think forget it, there are fried snails everywhere now, you specialize in selling snails, it's strange that some people eat them. ”
Chen Simian shook his head, and also felt that Chen Yu was a child who was casually.
It's better to wait until you make enough money before opening a restaurant.
"Dad, don't believe it, there are a lot of people who eat. Mom, tell me, do you like to eat fried snails?"
"Like is like, but you only sell fried snails, people don't only sell snails, but everything else, how can you compete to surpass him. ”
"Mom, you need to change your mindset. Although others have fried snails, others sell snails only incidentally, but we are a monopoly, and we can definitely be more professional than them. ”
This is not Chen Yu's nonsense.
At the beginning of the previous county, every restaurant had snails, and later there was a company that specialized in selling snails, which became popular in an instant. In addition, this snail shop has also registered a trademark, and there are dozens of franchisees.
It's just a pity that Chen Simian didn't understand what his son said at this time, and shook his head, obviously not approving. But Zhang Wenxiu, who was on the side, seemed to understand something, and asked: "Xiaoyu, is the monopoly snail you are talking about like a clothing store?"
"Haha, Mom, you're so smart. I'll just say, you're the best mom in the house. Yes, that's right, Mom, I mean to make the snail a model like a clothing store. As long as we make this snail specialty store, then in the future, when others want to eat snails, they will be the first to come to our store. ”
With such a prompt, Chen Simian also thought about it seriously: "Specializing in snails, as long as you want to eat snails, come to our store?"
Although snails are not the same as clothing, they are actually the same.
Why do clothing stores only specialize in the same clothing, there are still a lot of people who go.
In addition to the brand value of clothing stores, more is his monopoly.
Because of the monopoly, it is more professional.
Because it is more professional, it is more popular.
"Wenxiu, do you say okay?"
Chen Simian looked at Zhang Wenxiu.
Zhang Wenxiu didn't answer, but asked again: "Xiaoyu, you have a good idea." However, a bowl of snails is only 3 yuan, and the profit is very low, how can we make money?"
"Mom, the profit of the snail is very low, but no matter how low the profit is, it can't stand the number of people. Think about it, if 100 people, 200 people, 300 people come to eat our snails, how much can we earn?"
Now it is not as low as in later generations, the price level is very low, and earning 100 yuan a day is already a high salary.
If there are hundreds of people who come to eat snails, they can earn more than 200 yuan a day just by selling snails.
This is definitely much better than doing an ordinary hotel business.
And that's just the foundation.
"100, 200...... Are there really so many people?"
"Absolutely, I promise. And, Mom, although we only sell snails, we can also sell drinks. If you think about it, although the snail is delicious, it is fragrant and spicy, and after eating for more than ten minutes, those guests definitely want to drink a drink, and maybe not just a bottle. Of course, in addition to drinks, we can also add some more alcohol. Look, isn't that just the profit?"
"Drinks, drinks, ......"
Zhang Wenxiu didn't speak, but he was already calculating the profits in his heart.
"Lao Chen, what do you say?"
Chen Simian smoked a cigarette, thought for a while, and was about to say something, but suddenly said to Chen Yu: "Okay, Xiaoyu, go back to the room and read the book, I have other things to do with your mother." ”
"Oh, good. ”
Chen Yu nodded obediently.
Although his parents didn't say anything, he knew that the two were moved.
