As the industrial revolution progressed, public education became available, churches became centrally heated, streets were paved, houses larger and better heated and lit, people were cleaner because bathing was easier sometimes, you could rent a ride to somewhere (cabs, omnibuses, trains, livery stables, ferries, ships) instead of have to own it or walk, there were hospitals and doctors a few minutes away instead of many hours, and there was food brought in from all over rather than just what you grew yourself.
There are a wide variety of jobs in town or a city instead of being a jack of all trades, master of none on a farm. Specialization means better income, more satisfaction, a reputation and status, proper tools and materials instead of improvised ones on the farm, training or advice, paying customers, and your own business or a good job.
We tried to bring both the Nationalist and Communist leaders together to come to some form of Compromise. We also left a delegation in Nanking to work with the new Communist regime, instead of fleeing back to Taiwan. China and Russia would soon fight over the fundamentals of Communism. We would not help matters, as anything that hurt Russia was seen as a good thing.
