Overview:

Since the establishment of the bamboo weaving cooperative, the appearance of Zhulin Village has changed significantly. Visitors seeking to learn, inspectors, interviewers, and tourists placing orders have been coming in an endless stream. They eat all day and all month long, leading to frequent quarrels, fights, and cases of alcohol poisoning, causing the smart and capable cafeteria manager, Xiao Wangfa, to be driven to tears and indescribable suffering. Once, when Vice Secretary Guo of the Provincial Committee came to the village for an inspection, the lunch prepared for him was eaten by the leaders from the county. Xiao Wangfa had no choice but to serve simple home-cooked meals like mung bean porridge, steamed buns, and peanuts, anxiously preparing for punishment. Unexpectedly, Vice Secretary Guo was very pleased with the meal, and the villagers of Zhulin saw hope from this incident.
