Airing Dried Beancurd Sticks

Dried beancurd sticks is a Chinese food made from local green beans and spring water. The workers begin to air the beancurd sticks at 5:00 in the morning and work until 5:00 in the afternoon, which has become their way of making a living as the dried beancurd sticks they make are sold all over the country.
