The Xu family settled on the mountain, and it was just the right time to build the shed. Now, with everything close at hand, the work progressed quickly. The old man and his two sons, Zhixin and Zhiming, managed to finish the shed in just a few days.
Gradually, the villagers all came to work on the ginseng sheds. During this season, the weather was still very cold, and the villagers would bring dry food to eat outside, with the chilling wind blowing straight into their stomachs. Jinghan saw this and asked Mrs. Xue to boil a big pot of hot water, then invited the people to eat inside the house. Under previous management by Mr. Liu, such hospitality was never offered; but now, with the Xu family around, having a place to drink some warm water earned them much praise from everyone.
