Du Juan explained with a smile, "Not that much. We saved about 400 yuan from the snack stand, and the rest was the money from the transfer of the snack stand. We sold the snack stand and the skill of making pancakes to someone else for 350 yuan."

I have to say that Du Juan does have some business acumen.

Shen Mingzhu looked at the other party and said, "Aren't you afraid of losing the money? In fact, you don't have to invest any money. Just work for me and I will pay you."

"I'm not afraid of losing money. At worst, I can just keep setting up stalls. As long as I work hard, I can always make money."

Seeing Du Juan's firm attitude, Shen Mingzhu didn't say anything more. After thinking for a while, he decided to give 25% of the workshop's shares to the couple.

According to the investment ratio, the couple's share is about 20%. However, she originally planned to give the couple 5% of the dry shares as a reward after the workshop started to make a profit.

Now that the couple is willing to spend their savings to work with her, she might as well give them an extra 5% of the shares, which can be considered a return on investment.

Immediately, Shen Mingzhu took out paper and pen and wrote a shareholding agreement for the couple.

After talking about the investment, Shen Mingzhu discussed her early plans and product categories with the couple in detail.

She plans to make two foods first: dried tofu and spicy strips.

The production process of these two snacks is relatively simple, the cost is low, the profit is considerable, and it is easy to open up the market sales.

Naturally, the couple had no objection to her decision.

Shen Mingzhu had already decided on the name of the workshop when she applied for the business license. It is called Meiyi Food Processing Factory, and she is currently struggling with the trademark name.

She had thought of several names, but had not yet decided on one.

Du Juan and Shen Chaobei looked at the names she listed on the paper and each had their own opinions.

Du Juan thinks "Meishijia" sounds better, Shen Chaobei thinks "Xiangba Lao" sounds better, and Shen Mingzhu thinks "Little Prince" sounds better.

The reason why she chose "The Little Prince" as the trademark name is due to her expectations for Pei Ziheng. She hopes that Pei Ziheng can be as innocent, kind, happy and cheerful as the little prince.

"Mom, I don't think these names sound nice."

Pei Ziheng, who was originally reading a textbook, suddenly came over and looked at the several trademark names on the paper with disgust.

Shen Mingzhu pinched his cheek amusedly, "Then think of something nice to say."

Pei Ziheng looked at her with sparkling black eyes, "Mingzhu, I think this name sounds the best."

Shen Mingzhu waved her hands repeatedly, but Du Juan and her husband agreed.

Including Pei Ziheng, three votes won, so the trademark name was finalized.

On the way home, Shen Mingzhu felt sick at the thought of her name being printed on the packaging of spicy strips and dried tofu.

Pei Ziheng was very happy, jumping all the way as if he had picked up a gold ingot.

Mingzhu, Mingzhu, this name once made him feel extremely disgusted and hateful, but now he feels that it is the most beautiful, warmest and favorite name in the world, no doubt about it.

Because it is his mother's name, the name of the person he loves most.

"Mom, using the founder's own name as the brand name is good for the brand's development. Chanel, Armani, Aston Martin, Louis Vuitton, etc., these internationally renowned brands all use the founder's real name."

"It's a simple truth. Using your name as a brand name means you must protect and manage this brand as if it were your own life and reputation. This is also the best weight and sincerity for you to promote and establish your brand reputation."

Shen Mingzhu looked at her son and found it hard to believe that such mature and wise insights came from the mouth of a five-year-old child.

"Son, how do you know this?"

“I heard it on the radio.”

Shen Mingzhu rubbed his hairy head, thinking, is this the difference between a genius and an ordinary person? After deciding on the trademark name, Shen Mingzhu and Shen Chaobei, a couple, got busy with the opening of the workshop with a clear division of labor.

Shen Mingzhu was responsible for external affairs, Shen Chaobei was responsible for internal affairs, and Du Juan returned to the countryside to recruit staff.

Daya was left at Shen Mingzhu's house, with Pei Ziheng helping to take care of her.

Fortunately, Daya is an obedient and well-behaved girl. If you turn on the TV for her to watch, she will sit there quietly for the whole day.

The salary offered by Shen Mingzhu was a basic salary of 30 yuan, including food and accommodation, plus production performance and bonuses, and three days off per month.

City people may not appreciate this condition, but it is a hot commodity for people in Shenjiagou.

They farm at home and earn hardly any money all year round.

Working in the city means you don't have to be exposed to the wind, sun or rain, you'll have food and shelter, and you can earn thirty yuan a month in net income, which means three hundred and sixty yuan a year, which is really great.

As soon as the news got out, the threshold of the Shen family was almost broken.

Shen Mingzhu's recruitment target was four people, preferably two men and two women. As a result, many people wanted to come to the city to do this job, and a fight almost broke out.

Many of them were relatives and elders of the Shen family. Du Juan couldn’t handle it alone, so she had to call Shen Mingzhu.

The weather was too hot and there were so many things to do that Shen Mingzhu was too lazy to go back and just asked Du Juan to bring everyone to the city.

Those who pass the interview will stay, and those who fail will go back, and the factory will subsidize their travel tickets.

The next day, when Shen Mingzhu arrived at the factory, Du Juan had already arrived with the people from Shenjiagou. These people were either standing or squatting in the empty factory building. At a rough glance, there were about twenty of them.

When they saw Shen Mingzhu, a group of people surrounded her like a tide.

"Mingzhu, when you were a child and had no milk, I fed you. You must keep me here!"

"Mingzhu, I'm your Aunt Guihua. Our families are related."

"Mingzhu, I'm Uncle Gensheng. I broke my waist last year while cutting firewood in the mountains. I can't do heavy work anymore. As a fellow villager, please give me a bite to eat."

There were about twenty people, all talking at once, and it made Shen Mingzhu's head hurt.

Shen Chaobei yelled several times before the group finally quieted down.

"Those under 40 who can read, stand on the left."

After hearing what Shen Mingzhu said, those who met the requirements ran happily to the left, while those who did not meet the requirements stood there looking at each other in confusion.

After the people were divided, Shen Mingzhu said politely to the people on the right: "Please wait outside. I will ask Chaobei to distribute the fares to everyone. After receiving the money, everyone can go back."

After hearing what she said, this group of people immediately quit.

"Mingzhu, what do you mean? We came to the city to earn money for you, but you want us to go back after just two sentences. Aren't you kidding me?"

"That's right! We are all from the same village, why can they stay but we can't? Aren't we all doing the same work?"

Du Juan stood up and said, "My dear uncles and aunts, I told you before I came here that the factory only recruits people under 40 years old who can read and write. You didn't believe me and insisted on coming with me."

"What's wrong with being illiterate? Can't you work if you can't read?"
