Chapter 306 Assessment
They first went to the mountains and handed the things they brought to Uncle Fang to him, and then asked Uncle Fang to take them to the new village to find the original person in charge.

Just like in her previous life, she spent 100,000 yuan, and the entire stone house belonged to Hua Xiali. Hua Xiali asked the person in charge to help her call people from the old village to help her reclaim the land, and she would come to farm after the new year and spring.

The people who open up the wasteland, whether men or women, are paid three dollars a day.

If you want to recruit all female comrades, there may not be enough people in the new village, so both men and women are needed. Moreover, since they are originally from the old village, they must be very familiar with the land of the old village.

In her previous life, Hua Xiali had handed this place over to Jia Chenyang and his wife to manage, but now they are working in Zhang Yongfeng's braised food shop, so this time she can only find Jia Chenyang's younger brother Jia Chenguang, since he is her cousin anyway.

After Jia Chenguang reported in, Hua Xiali gave him the work to do. The next step was to find workers to repair and renovate the stone houses in the mountains, build roads, and dig ditches...

Hua Xiali and Huo Beixi went to the agreed place and saw two people waiting there. Hua Xiali looked at their household registration books and ID cards and asked one of them to sign an employment agreement. He then wrote him a letter of introduction and asked him to go to the mountains to find Jia Chenguang and do odd jobs for him in the future.

As for the other person, Hua Xiali had not yet decided where to put him, so she asked him to go and open up new land with everyone and do that first. When she had made arrangements on her side, she would naturally place him in a suitable place.

As for the other people in their group, she didn't have any ideas for the time being. It was not impossible to reform them once these two were reformed.

After all, by doing this, she can reduce the number of unemployed people in this society, so that everyone's living environment can be relatively stable.

Hua Xiali also asked Jia Chenguang to select reliable people from the workers to train as his assistants.
Now that everything was explained, Hua Xiali no longer had to worry about it. She focused on reviewing at home and waiting for the chef certification exam. She went to Xinda once every half a month, and each time she went there, there was always a long line of cars following her.

That day, Hua Xiali received a call from Jia Yuxia, who told her that the house next door to the restaurant was for sale. Because it was facing the street and the restaurant was so popular, there was a large flow of customers here. If she bought the house next door, it would be easy to do any business in the future.

I have to say that Jia Yuxia has become smarter after working in the restaurant for a while.

The houses near the big restaurant do have a lot of customer traffic because of the big restaurant, so they are indeed available for purchase. However, Hua Xiali did not show up. If she went to buy them, others would raise the price because of her wealth, and would hold on to the price. But the housing prices are so high at this time, and he raised the price very high, which is obviously higher than the market price. Even if there is a lot of customer traffic, no one will buy it.

So Hua Xiali asked Zhang Yongfeng to help her buy it, but she didn't expect that for a house of similar size and just one year apart, the other party would actually want 60,000 yuan.

Even ten years later, the shops on the street in the town would cost less than 60,000 yuan, but he is asking such a high price now, which shows that he is trying to make a profit.

He remembered that her uncle's family bought a two-story storefront in the town more than ten years later in order to start a business for their children. It only cost 80,000 yuan, and the location was better than this one, and the house was newly built. So Hua Xiali didn't ask Zhang Yongfeng to help her negotiate, and she didn't want it. With the 60,000 yuan, wouldn't it be better for her to open a store in the city center? In her previous life, she opened a wedding dress store in the city center, and all the investments added up didn't cost this much!
It was not until after the millennium that the housing price per square meter in Guizhen City exceeded 1,000 yuan. As a result, now it is sold for nearly 2,000 yuan per square meter. This is clearly a rip-off. No matter how rich a person is, they will not buy it. If they do, isn't it telling everyone that they are being taken advantage of?

At that time, the housing price was between two hundred and four hundred, and this was the housing price in the city center. As a result, his house in a small town was sold at such a high price. It would be strange if he could sell it!

Later, Hua Xiali didn't pay much attention to the house, but every time she went to the warehouse to meet Hua Qingmei, she saw a house sale notice posted next door.

Whoever buys this house is sick.

It seems that this person clearly wants to cheat Hua Xiali and hopes that Hua Xiali can buy his house. He may know that Hua Xiali Restaurant can earn so much money in just a few days of turnover, and he will not stop until he has cheated Hua Xiali.

Even if Hua Xiali wanted to expand the restaurant, he couldn't buy his shabby house.

Even if other people’s newly built houses cost between two hundred and four hundred, but he has an old house that he has lived in for many years. He really thinks others are fools!
Why did Hua Xiali want to expand the restaurant in the town? No matter how big the customer flow in the town is, it can't compare to the county town and the city center. With this money, why not open a branch anywhere else? Why must it be in the town?

Afterwards, Hua Xiali arranged for Jia Yujie to go to the city center to help her look for houses. Now that housing prices are low, it would be fine to buy a few more and keep them in hand. Otherwise, the cost would be quite high if you wait until later to buy them.

She can earn hundreds of thousands a month from her restaurant, and she also goes to Xinda to get goods to sell. She is still mainly engaged in wholesale furniture, because selling furniture makes money quickly, and she can earn more than 100,000 a month.

With her monthly income, she can buy many houses in the city center. There is no need for her to stay in a small town.

Hua Xiali asked Jia Yujie to help her look for houses, and she looked for big ones, or two houses next to each other, because whether opening a big restaurant or a wedding dress store, a large store is needed, so the larger the area, the more suitable it is for opening a store.

On the day of the chef certification exam, Hua Xiali set off for the county's Ministry of Human Resources and Social Security with several chefs from the restaurant. They took the theoretical test at the ministry in the morning. After passing the test, they took the practical test at the ministry's canteen at noon.

The theoretical assessment is divided into three aspects: basic knowledge assessment, technical knowledge assessment, and dish knowledge assessment.

After half of the candidates were eliminated in the first round of examination, Hua Xiali realized that the chef assessment was not so easy. She thought that anyone who registered for the exam could pass!
However, in order to train several female chefs in the restaurant, she gave them lessons frequently. In the first round of examinations, all the chefs in the big restaurant passed.

Those who passed the theoretical test then went to the unit cafeteria for a practical test. There were several pots in the cafeteria, so several candidates went in at the same time. Hua Xiali was not assigned to the same group as other chefs in the restaurant. It was probably intentional, as they were afraid that people from the same unit would whisper to each other during the test.
