Sixty years later, in Xiuning, Huangshan, a Yuetan Reservoir will store water, and more than a dozen ancient villages in three towns will also sink to the bottom. Old people who have lived in ancient houses all their lives are reluctant to move.

Spring tea picking is the busiest season in southern Anhui, and Jin Yougen is no exception.

Jin Yougen lives at the entrance of Xiaolan Village. His old house has a history of hundreds of years, but unfortunately 1979 was renovated and demolished.
