So I got a few more facts straight. The "golden needle" flower refers to the flower before blossom. This is when it is edible. Each flower blossom for one day, which means the edible pre-blossom flower has to be harvested the day before, which means they have to harvest the field every single day during the season. That's really tedious work! So if you did the harvest of the field yesterday, the number of blossoms today will be the ratings of your performance. The more blossom, the worse you are!
That said, there are tons of blossoms on the mountain. It's not because there were many poor pickers, but the government paid the farmers to not harvest the flowers. The blossom bring tourists, which benefits everyone doing business there, and the farmers get paid by the government to not do work. Hey, win-win for everyone!
