In the past, most rural children usually only had a few cents on them, whereas city kids often had several dollars, dozens, or even hundreds as pocket money.
Many rural children, when encountering relatives from the city, often used trickery to exploit their Gold Coins.
Jiang Ning used to think this was the innate inferiority of rural kids, but later realized it was merely due to differences in resources and education.
"By the way, Brother Ning, are you spending New Year in the village?" Jiang Junlong asked.
Jiang Ning shook his head.
Jiang Junlong: "So you're returning to the urban area? My dad is heading back this afternoon, he can give you a ride to the city."
His family planned to come back early on New Year's Eve to celebrate, but first, they were returning home tonight, as their family wasn't comfortable staying in the countryside.
Jiang Ning: "I'll stay for another day and head back in the morning."
