After years of hard work, hard work and thrift, they saved money and asked the local designers to draw the drawings and return to their hometown to build buildings. Between the 12th and 15th years of the Republic of China, they successively built 13 buildings near Xiacun, named yaohuafang. Because all the buildings in the village were built by overseas Chinese in Canada, it is known as "Canadian village". There are 13 households in the village, all of them are named Guan.
