It's largely an Agricultural economy and field labour tends to be a minimum wage deal. But there are plenty of openings in the Armies of the War Lords paying an averge of 4 Yuan, or 20 x 20 cent coins if you live to the end of the month to collect it. One of the reasons the Republic of China troops lost against the CCP army was that the Republic solders fought without pay contributing to the plumenting morale.

So very interesting, it sounds like it was a very dangerous occupation!😳
20X20 IF…… you live to see payday!😬
