From The Front Line | Zhaojiawa

On Oct 4, during Mid-Autumn Festival, Liu Fuyou cooked his family reunion dinner for the first time using a gas stove and tap water in his new apartment.

Liu spent most of his life in a shabby mud-brick hut in Zhaojiawa, a remote mountainous village in Kelan county, Shanxi province. But the 71-year-old farmer and his family, along with five other poverty-stricken families, moved to new apartments on Sept 22.
