He doesn't understand gold, so he uses gold bricks to cushion the foot of the bed. Throw it in the toilet and reward it to the founding general.

Since ancient times, gold has been a valuable commodity. You can trade in gold wherever you are. Because of its golden color, even children know its value.

However, once an adult did not understand gold and made a joke. He is Chen Xilian, who later became the founding general. When you become a general, you must know about gold, but you don't know what gold is during the Red Army period.

Chen Xilian was born in poverty and had never seen gold since he was a child. After joining the army, he attacked Daxian County in Sichuan, and the landlords and local tyrants all fled. The Red Army captured many things, including some gold and silver metals.

At that time, the soldiers didn't know what it was. Chen Xilian took a look, recognized the shiny silver as silver, and said that he would confiscate it. But he didn't know what gold was, so he said it was useful to move it all to his room.

Chen Xilian doesn't understand gold, so he certainly doesn't want to keep it for himself. If he knew that gold had to be changed into coins before it could be spent, why did Chen Xilian move to his house?

At that time, the four feet of the bed he slept in were not at the same height, and he kept swinging. Putting a gold brick on it was very stable. He took a few gold bricks to cushion the foot of the bed. He felt that the others were useless, so he took them out and threw them into the toilet.

Who knows, a few days later, the superior sent Li Xiannian and Zheng to talk to Chen Xilian. Coincidentally, Zheng works in the logistics department. He must know about gold. He walked around Chen Xilian's house and saw the gold bricks at the foot of the bed at a glance.

He took a piece and waved it in front of Chen Xilian, saying that Chen Xilian was also a local tyrant. Chen Xilian didn't understand what Zheng meant, so Zheng said he could use gold to cushion the foot of the bed. Only landlords and local tyrants will do this.

Chen Xilian was surprised, only to know that these are gold and valuable. Before that, he always thought they were yellow bricks. His words made both Li Xiannian and Zheng laugh, saying that this golden brick could make the Red Army eat and wear for several months.

He quickly took out all the bricks under the bed and handed them to the organization one by one. On second thought, he threw some more into the toilet. He jumped into the toilet without thinking. Gold is more important than smell.

Chen Xilian picked up all the gold in the pit and handed it in. He was also the first Red Army general to make jokes because he didn't understand gold. From then on, he remembered this golden thing.

In his later years, Chen Xilian recalled this incident and couldn't help laughing, saying that he had left the gold in the toilet. If it weren't for Zheng, the gold would have been buried in the toilet. It's so interesting.
