Within one morning, A-Tan had gathered the chestnut burrs from the ground into sacks, while Marcus Quinn, along with the two agile hired women, managed to knock down all the chestnut burrs from the twenty trees, filling over a dozen sacks.
Due to the terrain of the mountainside here, cars couldn't reach up, so the men carried the sacks one by one using a carrying pole down the hill.
As Marcus Quinn carried the sacks of chestnuts down the hill, the two strong women each carried a sack together, and seeing the men's agility, they smiled at A-Tan and said, "Young lady, Marcus Quinn is hardworking, you're fortunate."
"Yes, indeed. Marcus Quinn is a city dweller, and even the strongest men from our village can't match your man in work." The women chuckled at A-Tan, smiling cheekily.
"When do you plan to hold the banquet, will it be in our village or somewhere else?"
