In early April, the Southern Yangtze River area is a picture of luxuriant
spring. When night falls, drumbeat can be heard in the rural drying yards
in Zhejiang's Yiwu City and melodious music of traditional rural opera
spreads in the dark. "Busy with business in the day and having a good
time at night" is a vivid description of modern life in rural areas in
Yiwu, the largest distribution center of small commodities in the globe.
