All living beings in hell

Chapter 174 - Gold Miner Dagang
The lotus lantern at the door was lit up, and the office welcomed the 120th customer No. [-].

There was no sound from the door, and I was about to get up to check when I heard a rustling sound from under the floor.A shovel suddenly passed through the floor, and a pair of fluffy animal claws scratched the outer edge of the hole in the floor, revealing a yellow helmet.

"Hello." I greeted.

The hard hat poked out, revealing a small gray face, its eyes barely visible.Then there is the little pink nose and the cute die, which is a mole wearing a yellow hard hat.

The little mole was carrying a shovel, sniffing back and forth in the air with his nose, as if he wanted to know where he was now.

"Hello?" I said tentatively again.

"Ahem, I'm sorry, I didn't find the gate." The little mole spoke, and the voice sounded like a middle-aged uncle.

"It's okay, it's okay, please sit down and talk."

The little mole's eyesight was very poor. It seemed that he didn't see the wooden chair at all, and sat down on the floor.The shovel in his hand was thrown beside him with a clang, the yellow hard hat was tilted to one side, and his two calves were stretched forward.

"What should I call you?"

"Digang!" Little Mole patted his chest, full of pride.

"Dagang, why are you looking for me today?" I wrote down its name on the paper.

"I'm a gold miner, and I dug deep, deep, into hell."

"and then?"

Dagang's little claws were shaking in the air excitedly: "Can you believe it! Can you believe it! There are so many gold mines in hell!"

"really?"

"It's all very close to the surface, and you can get it with almost no need to dig deep!"

"Did you dig a lot of gold in hell?"

"Yes Yes!"

"Where are you going to take these gold mines?"

Dagang's expression suddenly became serious: "There is one thing that I find very strange."

"whats the matter?"

"In hell, gold mines are so easy to collect, why no one trades gold mines?"

"It may not be necessary."

"Why don't you need it! Gold is omnipotent everywhere!"

"What use is gold in hell?"

"It can be made into your favorite magic weapon, currency, and the pen holder you use, or you can make it out of gold. It's golden, isn't it beautiful!"

"Compared to the color of gold, I prefer jade, a warm mineral."

"Gold is also warm, stable and warm!"

"Then what are you going to do with all this gold?"

Dali just scratched his chin: "What are you doing? I don't know how to make goldware, I can only dig gold mines. If I want to turn them into useful utensils, I need to find a goldsmith."

"Goldsmiths should be found in hell."

"The texture of gold is very soft. If other metals are not added, the utensils made will not be durable. First of all, cold weapons such as swords, guns and swords must not be able to be made. There may be room for negotiation on the pen holder. In fact, the best thing is to make money. Or jewelry, even in hell, I have never seen anyone buying and selling gold bracelets and necklaces."

"Well, it is indeed a very difficult state."

"It is obviously such valuable gold, but it was wasted in hell! I feel so distressed."

"Maybe it's not a waste."

"Why is it not a waste!"

"Originally, gold, as an element, is a part of the earth. If it is not mined, it will remain as a part of the earth forever. There is no wave or waste."

"Seeing so much gold in hell, wouldn't you be tempted to dig it!"

"I can't use it, I don't know what I can do if I dig it."

"Even if you can't use it now, maybe you can use it in the future? Gold is always valuable, and it is valuable anywhere."

"What is the value of gold?"

"My lord, my lord, don't you have any idea about currency circulation?"

"I also hope that you can enlighten me."

"The most basic concept of currency is that it can be exchanged for other necessities of life. Look at my shovel and my hard hat. They are all exchanged for currency! But currency is closely related to the political situation. Bound together, I said here you should have almost understood it!

Once the dynasty changes, the previous currencies may all be lost!This situation is very bad!

After digging a gold mine for a lifetime, I finally saved a small amount of savings for my retirement.

As a result, wow, the political situation changed overnight.There is no place to collect the millions of deposits in the past, and it is not as good as a copper plate.

My lord, my lord, do you now understand the importance of gold?
Gold, because of its scarcity, can be used no matter how the political situation changes.

No matter how long it has been, people have recognized the value of gold.This recognition of the common value of gold is the guarantee of life.

Maybe once one million could buy a house, but after the war, you can only buy two pieces of bread.

But gold does not depreciate!

As long as you have gold, you can always buy what you need to buy.

Bread, jam, tailored suits...

As long as you have gold, you don't have to worry about those unreliable paper tickets in your hand. "

"I probably understand."

Dali just looked at my still confused expression, with his little paws on his hips, and looked at me angrily: "I've explained everything so clearly, is there anything else you don't understand!"

"I still don't quite understand, why does hell need gold? There is no currency circulation here, and there is no economic system. Does gold still have value preservation?"

"Ah, I'm so mad, wooden fish head wooden fish head!"

Dali just hammered the floor a few times, his paws stuck in his chest, his cheeks bulging with anger.

"The value of gold lies in taking preventive measures! What if one day, there is not enough supplies in hell, there is a war, and everyone wants to grab food, what can we do!"

"But the soul doesn't need to eat."

"The soul doesn't need to eat, but it doesn't mean the soul doesn't want to eat! This is the point of using desire, grabbing what the soul wants, turning desire into needs, and then satisfying these needs, won't the goods be sold? !"

"It sounds like that makes sense."

"The start-up of all business opportunities requires the support of funds, and my gold is funds!"

"So you're going to do business in hell?"

"No, no! I said it! If there is a shortage of supplies, gold will definitely come in handy."

"In the human world, if there is a shortage of supplies, people will starve to death, die of thirst, or sleep on the streets. If in hell, the soul is no longer in a state of death, even if there is a shortage of supplies, so what?"

Dali just patted his chest, and said solemnly: "The soul's need for material is not necessarily less than that of the body. I can guarantee this. There are many souls in hell who don't know how to control and indulge their desires. These souls , the easiest to be tempted. Give a little sweetness, and you will want more."

"Isn't it the same with gold mining? Once you get some gold, you want more gold."

"More gold is for life!"

"But there is no life or death in hell."

"More gold is to ensure the abundance of supplies."

"But souls in hell can live without those materials, but alcoholics can't drink wine, and smokers can't smoke cigarettes."

"Yeah, wouldn't that be hard?"

"Isn't this kind of discomfort the purpose of their going to hell?"

"Is their purpose to come to hell to suffer these hardships!"

I stared at Dagang, confused: "Otherwise, what is hell for?"

"I'm pissed off, I'm pissed off! How can you not make sense!"

"What do you want to talk about?"

"Gold is very necessary."

"I didn't dispute that."

"So it is very necessary for me to store gold."

"Okay, then you can continue to do it."

"Then what are you arguing with me?"

"There is no theory, I just ask for advice and want to know your thoughts."

"Do you understand now?"

"I understand it."

"but?"

I smiled, looked at the little mole in front of me, and didn't want to say any more: "No but, keep doing what you want to do. But ah, my floor is broken, do you want to put that piece of gold on it?" Fill it in for me? It can be regarded as your compensation to me."

"Fill the floor with gold! It's too extravagant!"

"In hell, wood may be more scarce than gold, right? Maybe wood will hold its value better?"

Dali just touched his chin: "Is wood more valuable? Maybe it's also..."

"So what do you think about this floor?"

Dali just took off his helmet, took out two small gold mines from inside, put them on the floor, and pushed them in my direction.

"I don't know how to patch the floor either, you use gold to ask a carpenter to help you patch the floor!"

"But what if I can't find a carpenter? It's hard to find a carpenter in hell. If I find a carpenter, what if they don't accept gold?"

"It is impossible not to collect gold."

"If you don't accept it."

"Impossible not to accept!"

The little mole raised his chin stubbornly, with an unquestionable self-confidence.Looking at his appearance, I waved the jade bracelet on my left wrist.The green energy light wrapped the hole in the floor, and the scattered fragments gradually returned to the hole, repairing itself.

"Ah, you don't need a carpenter at all!"

"Yeah, I was teasing you."

Dali just grabbed the gold and stuffed it back into his helmet: "It's not fun at all!"

"I'm sorry I didn't use your gold this time."

"Hmph, sooner or later, you will know the importance of gold!"

"Maybe I will."

Dali just straightened his helmet, picked up the shovel from the ground, and groped towards the gate of the office.

"I won't give it away!" I raised my voice to his back.

"You don't need to send it, you don't need to send it!"

The little gray and furry figure, dragging a big shovel, walked out of the door still angrily.
