"Is that right, Xiao Jia? Did I hear you incorrectly?"
He Tiantian feigned confusion and slowly said, "If I go to the lecture given by your experts, not only do I not have to spend money, but I also get paid?"
Although there's a daily reimbursement of 10 yuan for transportation, and a 20 yuan lunch allowance, it's not a lot of money.
A lot of young people might not even care about it.
But for an elderly person who would go to the supermarket early in the morning just to save a few cents on eggs, that's no small amount.
Because it's free money, like the sky dropping a pie.
Seniors mostly have free bus passes, so they don't spend anything on transportation but can still get the 10 yuan fare.
And the lunch is no big deal, just bringing two buns in the morning, having a sparse lunch, and getting 20 yuan for lunch once the event is over in the afternoon.
In total, that's 30 yuan a day.
And for some frugal seniors, this money could be enough to cover groceries for several days.
