The warehouses and woodsheds are all set up here, so let's not dismantle them over there for now.
As for the firewood stacks, there's no need to move them all over here. Just leave them over there for now. We can collect the firewood from the woods as needed.
With this arrangement, moving is actually very simple. Otherwise, why didn't Sheng Liancheng and his wife plan to make any special arrangements? They just thought it would be easy to move over.
Of course, the fact that so many people came to help shows that the Sheng family is well-liked.
