Chapter 312 Water Is Money, Money Is Water! Where There Is Water,
Chapter 312 Water is money, money is water! Where there is water, there is money, and where there is money, there is water!!
Xinfengjiang Reservoir.
The largest artificial lake in South China.
After Yang Ming and his parents had a meeting at Longchuan Assembly Hall, he and Yang Jirong and his wife, Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, Lin Xiuzhi and others quietly left Longchuan County and took a car to the largest scenic spot in Dongyuan County.
Yang Jirong and his wife have been back to their hometown for more than 20 days, and they have not visited the scenic spots in their hometown.
Taking advantage of the good weather now, they will soon return to Hong Kong and go to Xinfengjiang Reservoir 60 kilometers away.
In addition to Chen Zhenhua and other bodyguards, Mr. Shen and Secretary Zhang also accompanied them.
Go to Xinfengjiang Reservoir for fun.
In fact, it was also an arrangement for Yang Ming's family by Guangdong Province and the local government when Yang Ming returned to his hometown.
Some time ago, Yang Ming was busy recognizing his ancestors, sweeping tombs, and visiting various schools in his hometown, which has been delayed until now.
"Master, I heard that the reservoir is the largest artificial lake in the south?" Ah Zhu asked curiously.
People like Zhong Chuhong and Ah Zhu who grew up by the sea and often see the sea don't have as strong feelings about the big lake as those who have never seen the sea.
"The largest reservoir in Guangdong Province."
This cannot be said to be in the south, only in Guangdong Province.
Now it is not raining. Even if Yang Ming leaves Longchuan County and goes to the Xinfengjiang Reservoir in Dongyuan County, he finds that except for some bumps on the road, it is much better than when he came back because of the rain.
Along the way, Yang Ming looked out the window.
There are mainly mountains here, and some fields can also be seen.
However, the fields are empty now. It is neither the sowing season nor the harvest season.
After these days, Yang Ming visited those middle schools and primary schools in various regions, and he has a better understanding of the situation in his hometown.
The more so, the more he hopes for changes in his hometown.
This time, Yang Ming's New Year gift to his hometown is also his first gift to his hometown, which is the first step to change his hometown.
Coming out of Longchuan County, we drove along the winding highway for nearly three hours and finally arrived at Dongyuan County, 60 kilometers away.
Yang Ming had seen this place a few days ago when Mr. Shen and Secretary Zhang accompanied him to visit the school.
At that time, Mr. Shen and his wife were going to take Yang Ming to see the Xinfengjiang Reservoir. Yang Ming specially came with his parents to see it, but it was postponed until today.
He could see that the scenery here was really good.
The main reason was that this place was crossed by the Dongjiang River.
Where there is water and a big river passes through, there must be money.
In Guangdong Province, and even in the eyes of Hong Kong people.
Water is money.
Money is water.
Where there is water, there is money, and where there is money, there is water.
At this time, getting closer and closer to the Xinfengjiang Reservoir, the leader in front finally stopped the car.
Chen Zhenhua also stopped.
Yang Ming, Lin Xiuzhi, Ah Zhu, and Zhong Chuhong got out of the car, and Yang Jirong and his wife had already gotten out.
"Peter, are we there yet?"
On July 15, 1958, construction began on a 124-meter-high, 5-meter-wide, 440-meter-long concrete dam at the narrowest part of the Xinfengjiang River, forming the Xinfengjiang Reservoir, the first artificial lake in Guangdong Province.
At that time, Yang Jirong had already gone to Xiangjiang to develop, and he really didn't know that his hometown had formed the largest reservoir in South China.
Now that he has just arrived here, looking into the distance, he can actually see a vast lake with blue waves. He was also very surprised for a moment. He didn't expect that there was a lake like an endless sea in his hometown.
Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang has come.
In addition, the Xinfengjiang Reservoir Management Committee has learned that Mr. Yang and his family, who have returned from Xiangjiang, will visit the Xinfengjiang Reservoir for tourism.
Before Yang Ming and others came back, they received a notice in advance. However, they have been waiting for more than 20 days and have not seen Mr. Yang.
When I finally saw Mr. Yang and his family, I didn't know whether I was excited or something else.
"Mr. Yang, this is Zhao Weijun, the director of the Xinfengjiang Reservoir Management Committee." Secretary Zhang said with a man in his fifties.
This man is a typical Hakka, and he should be a local.
"Hello, Mr. Yang, we have been waiting for you to come."
Zhao Weijun said excitedly.
"Hello, Director Zhao, I have been busy with various things recently, so I have delayed until now. Today I came with my parents to see it."
Zhao Weijun and others greeted Yang Jirong and his wife, Lin Xiuzhi and others.
The group left here.
First go to the office of the Management Committee.
Now this is not a scenic spot, it is a large reservoir, and its main functions are irrigation, breeding, power generation and other functions.
Later, the main function of the Xinfengjiang Reservoir became the Wanlv Lake Scenic Area, that is, tourism.
Yang Ming also knew that part of the water supply to Xiangjiang later came from here.
Now there are only a few buildings here in the Management Committee, which are mainly used to monitor the water level of the reservoir, and in addition, there is power generation.
Why is there electricity in this area? It is because the hydropower resources in this area are very good and can be used for power generation. Therefore, in places like Longchuan County, there is electricity even in this era.
When Yang Ming and others were sitting in wheelchairs and looking at the lake in the distance, they were indeed a little surprised.
Xinfengjiang Reservoir is the first lake in South China. It is named because it is green everywhere and green all year round.
The entire lake area is basically not affected by typhoons, and there are few winds and waves on the lake. Because the color of the lake water changes with the angle and light of the sun, it produces several different colors in a day, from dark green, dark green, light green, and light green from near to far, and gradually fades, so the water color is beautiful.
"Master, this lake is so beautiful and green!" Ah Zhu came over and said.
She was born and raised in Nanyang and saw a very beautiful sea. Now she sees the artificial lake reservoir here, and there is such a boundless feeling, which is really different.
Ten minutes later.
Zhao Weijun came over and said: "Mr. Yang, I will take you around the lake in person. When we come back, we will eat the authentic whole fish feast here."
Yang Ming, Yang Jirong and his wife, Zhong Chuhong, Lin Xiuzhi, as well as Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang, Chen Zhenhua and others, all got on several of the boats.
These boats are not big, but not too small either. At least they are bigger than those yachts in Hong Kong. On the boat, you can take a boat tour of the entire Xinfengjiang Reservoir.
When Yang Ming and others got on the boat and confirmed that there were no other problems, Yang Ming looked at the vast blue lake outside in the wheelchair on the deck under the sunshine.
Maybe there is no artificial damage at all. This year is still the flood season. The water in the entire Xinfengjiang River is very full. The lake here is very green and very beautiful.
"Master, look at those islands!" Ah Zhu pointed excitedly at the islands just passed.
Yang Ming knew that these were not real islands. They should have been the surrounding mountains. They were blocked by the dam. Not only did they become artificial reservoirs, but the originally higher mountains became islands.
It can also be said that these are artificially formed islands.
Now those islands are basically trees, and have not been artificially developed. Zhao Weijun felt that there was nothing to see, so he did not take Yang Ming and others to see them.
Under these large ships, he took Yang Ming and others to the green reservoir for more than an hour.
The water area is nearly 400 square kilometers, which is too big to see.
Zhao Weijun took Yang Ming and his friends to see the unique scenery here, and then left and returned to the management committee.
At this time, the staff of the management committee had prepared a full fish banquet.
These full fish banquets are all related to fish, and all these fish come from the reservoir.
There are farmed here, but basically these reservoir fish eat grass and mayflies to grow up freshwater fish.
Three tables of people.
More than a dozen dishes are all made from reservoir fish.
Judging from the dishes of these full fish banquets, they are very good.
When Zhao Weijun invited Yang Ming's family, Mr. Shen, and Secretary Zhang to eat, Yang Ming and others were also a little hungry.
After finishing this full fish banquet.
The time came to 17:35 in the afternoon.
The sun was about to set, and the Xinfengjiang Reservoir looked even more beautiful under the sunset.
"Mr. Yang, I wonder what you think and suggest about our reservoir."
When Yang Ming and others were watching the sunset, Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang, and Zhao Weijun were accompanying them.
Secretary Zhang asked curiously.
"This Xinfengjiang Reservoir is very beautiful, but the name of this lake is just so-so."
In his opinion, calling it a reservoir is not nice.
The name of Xinfengjiang Reservoir originated from Xinfeng County.
In addition to this Xinfengjiang Reservoir, there are also very famous ones that are similar.
In Zhejiang Province, it was originally called Xin'anjiang Reservoir, and later it was changed to Qiandao Lake, which immediately became famous at home and abroad.
At this time, Xinfengjiang Reservoir is similar to Xin'anjiang Reservoir. Although it was renamed later, it was indeed a bit late for Xinfengjiang Reservoir.
"Mr. Yang, what name should I change to?"
"Just now we saw that it was all green, with endless blue waves. It would be best to change it to Wanlv Lake."
Wanlv Lake?
Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang, Zhao Weijun and others thought it was really good.
They think Mr. Yang is a cultured person. Yang Ming knows that he also knew about it in his previous life.
The most important thing.
This time, when he came here and saw the Xinfengjiang Reservoir, Yang Ming thought of Qiandao Lake.
Naturally, he also thought of the water here.
Water is money.
He thought of the richest man in the country who became the richest man by relying on water.
In this case, why didn't he invest in water?
What's more, whether it is the current Wanlv Lake or the later Qiandao Lake, they are all good investment and water sources.
Nongfu Spring is a little sweet!
We don't produce water, we are just nature's porters.
In other words, Yang Ming's investment project in his hometown is related to water.
He wants to set up a company called Nongfu Spring.
