Commander Guo thought that the autumn harvest would start at the beginning of September and be finished by early October, since their location was relatively far north.
Although there were machines, a significant amount of manual labor was still needed.
His idea was, if possible, to finish the house construction before the harvest began. As for the kang and such, they didn't need to rush that much.
Once Commander Guo said this, everyone who had been thinking of complaining stopped in their tracks, no longer daring to grumble.
If they didn't work hard, there was a real possibility that they would have nowhere to live by winter.
No longer complaining, everyone followed the lead of the old educated youth with construction experience and began working efficiently.
Commander Guo and the others were very satisfied when they saw that those who had complained were now hustling to work.
