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 Town Hall, he, Yang Jirong and his wife, Azhu, Zhong Chuhong, Lin Xiuzhi and others quietly left Longchuan County and took a bus 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 been to the scenic spots in their hometown.

Taking advantage of the good weather, we soon returned to Xiangjiang, specifically heading to the Xinfengjiang Reservoir, which is 60 kilometers away.

In addition to bodyguards like Chen Zhenhua, Mr. Shen and Secretary Zhang were also accompanied.

Go to Xinfengjiang Reservoir.

In fact, it was also the arrangements made by the Guangdong Province and the local area for Yang Ming's family when Yang Ming returned to his hometown.

Some time ago, Yang Ming was busy recognizing his ancestors, sweeping graves, and visiting major schools in his hometown, which he has been putting off until now.

"Master, I heard that the reservoir is the largest artificial lake in the south?" Azhu asked curiously.

People like Zhong Chuhong and Azhu, who grew up by the sea and often saw the sea, do not have as strong a feeling for the big lake as those who have never seen the sea.

"The largest reservoir in Guangdong Province."

This cannot be said to be the south, only Guangdong Province.

There are no rainy days now. Even if he leaves Longchuan County and goes to the Xinfengjiang Reservoir in Dongyuan County, Yang Ming finds that except for some bumps on the road, it is much better than when he came back because of the rainy days.

Along the way, Yang Ming looked out the window.

The area here is mainly mountainous, and you can also see some fields.

However, the fields are now empty. It is neither the planting season nor the harvest season yet.

After these days, Yang Ming visited middle schools and primary schools in various major areas, and he had a better understanding of the situation in his hometown.

The more it was because of that, the more he hoped for changes in his hometown.

This time, Yang Ming's New Year gift to his hometown was also his first big gift to his hometown. It was considered the first step in making changes to his hometown.

After leaving Longchuan County, we passed through the winding road for nearly three hours and finally arrived at Dongyuan County, which is 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 planning to take Yang Ming to see the Xinfengjiang Reservoir. Yang Ming specially came to see the Xinfengjiang Reservoir with his parents, so they postponed it until today.

He could see that the scenery here was really nice.

The main thing here is that it is crossed by the Dongjiang River.

If there is water in a place crossed by a big river, then there will definitely be money.

In Guangdong Province, even in the eyes of people in Xiangjiang.

Water is money.

Money is water.

Where there is water, there is money, and where there is money, there is water.

At this time, we were getting closer and closer to the Xinfengjiang Reservoir, and the leader in front finally stopped.

Chen Zhenhua also stopped.

Yang Ming, Lin Xiuzhi, Azhu, and Zhong Chuhong got out of the car. Yang Jirong and his wife had already gotten off.

"Peter, are we there yet?"

On July 15, 1958, construction began on a concrete barrage dam with a dam height of 124 meters, a crest width of 5 meters, and a dam length of 440 meters in the Yapo Mountain Canyon, the narrowest part of the Xinfeng River, thus forming The first artificial lake in Guangdong Province, Xinfengjiang Reservoir.

At that time, Yang Jirong had already moved to Xiangjiang to develop, and his hometown had formed the largest reservoir in South China. He really didn't know it.

Now that he had just arrived here, he looked into the distance and saw a large lake with vast expanse of blue waves. He was surprised for a moment. He did not expect that there was also a large lake like the boundless sea here in his hometown.

Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang is here.

In addition, the Xinfengjiang Reservoir Management Committee has now learned that Mr. Yang’s family, who returned from Xiangjiang, will visit the Xinfengjiang Reservoir.

Yang Ming and others had not returned yet, so they received the notice in advance. However, they have waited for more than 20 days and have not seen Mr. Yang.

When I finally saw Mr. Yang's family coming, I didn't know whether it was excitement or something else.

"Mr. Yang, this is Zhao Weijun, director of the Xinfengjiang Reservoir Management Committee." Secretary Zhang said with a man in his fifties.

At first glance, this man looks like a typical Hakka, probably from the local area.

"Hello, Mr. Yang, we have been waiting for you to come over."

Zhao Weijun said excitedly.

"Hello, Director Zhao. I have been busy with various things during this period, so I have delayed it until now. Today I specially came to see it with my parents."

Zhao Weijun and others greeted Yang Jirong and his wife, Lin Xiuzhi and others.

A group of people left here.

First go to the management committee's office.

This is not a scenic spot yet. It is a large reservoir whose main functions are irrigation, breeding, and power generation.

Later, the main function of Xinfengjiang Reservoir became Wanlv Lake Scenic Area, which is mainly for 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 other conditions. In addition, there are also power generation.

The reason why there is still electricity in this area is because the water resources in this area are very good and can be used for power generation. Therefore, places such as Longchuan County still have electricity even in this era.

Yang Ming and others were indeed a little surprised when they sat in their wheelchairs and looked at the lake in the distance.

Xinfengjiang Reservoir is the largest lake in South China. It is named because it is green everywhere and is green all year round.

The entire lake area is basically not affected by typhoons, and there are few wind and waves on the lake. Because the color of the lake water varies with the angle and light of the sun, it produces several different colors throughout the day, ranging from dark green, dark green, light green, light green, and light green from near to far. The green gradually turns lighter, so the water color is beautiful.

"Master, this lake is so beautiful and green!" Azhu came over and said.

She was born and raised in Nanyang, and has seen the beautiful sea. Now she sees the artificial lakes and reservoirs here, and the feeling of being boundless. It is really different.

Ten minutes passed.

Zhao Weijun came over and said: "Mr. Yang, I will personally take you to take a look around the lake. When we come back, we will eat the authentic whole fish feast here."

Yang Ming, Yang Jirong and his wife, Zhong Chuhong, Lin Xiuzhi, Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang, Chen Zhenhua and others all boarded a few of the ships.

These boats are not large in size, not too small, at least larger than those yachts in Xiangjiang. On the boats, you can take a boat tour of the entire Xinfengjiang Reservoir.

When Yang Ming and others got on the ship and confirmed that there were no other problems, Yang Ming looked out at the vast blue lake from his wheelchair on the deck under the sunshine.

Maybe it's because there's no man-made damage at all. This year is still a wet season. The entire Xinfeng River is full of water. The lake here is very green and beautiful.

"Master, look at those islands!" Azhu pointed excitedly at the islands he just passed.

Yang Ming knew that these were not real islands. They were originally the surrounding mountains, but were intercepted by the dam. Not only did they become artificial reservoirs, but the higher mountains turned into islands.

It can also be said that this is an island formed by man.

Now those islands are basically trees and have not undergone any artificial development. Zhao Weijun felt that there was nothing interesting to see, so he did not take Yang Ming and others to see them.

Under these large boats, they took Yang Ming and the others around on the green reservoir for more than an hour.

The water area is nearly 400 square kilometers, which is so big that it is impossible to see it all.

Zhao Weijun specially took Yang Ming and the others to see the unique scenery here, then left and returned to the management committee.

At this time, where the management committee ate, the staff had prepared a whole fish feast.

These fish feasts are all related to fish, and all of these fish come from the reservoir.

There is breeding here, but basically these reservoir fish are freshwater fish that eat grass and mayflies to grow up.

Three tables of people.

There are more than a dozen dishes, all made from reservoir fish.

Judging from the dishes of these all-fish feasts, they are very good.

When Zhao Weijun greeted Yang Ming's family, Mr. Shen and Secretary Zhang were eating, Yang Ming and others were also a little hungry.

Wait until you finish this whole fish feast.

The time came to 17:35 in the afternoon.

The sun is about to go down, and the Xinfengjiang Reservoir looks even more beautiful under the setting sun.

"Mr. Yang, I wonder what your opinions and suggestions are about our reservoir."

While Yang Ming and others were watching the sunset, Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang, Zhao Weijun and others were accompanying them.

Especially Secretary Zhang asked curiously.

"The Xinfengjiang Reservoir is very beautiful, but the name of this lake is just so-so."

In his opinion, calling it a reservoir doesn't sound good either.

Xinfengjiang Reservoir is named after Xinfeng County.

In addition to the Xinfengjiang Reservoir, there were other famous ones similar to the one later.

In Zhejiang Province, it was originally called Xin'anjiang Reservoir. Later it was changed to Qiandao Lake, and it immediately became famous at home and abroad.

At this time, Xinfengjiang Reservoir was almost the same as Xin'anjiang Reservoir. Although the name was later changed, it was indeed a bit late for Xinfengjiang Reservoir.

"Mr. Yang, don't know what name to change?"

"What we just saw was all green, with vast expanse of blue waves. It would be better to change it to Ten Thousand Green Lakes."

Wanlv Lake?

Mr. Shen, Secretary Zhang, Zhao Weijun and others sounded really good.

They felt that Mr. Yang was an educated person, and Yang Ming knew that he had known him in his previous life.

most important.

This time when I came here and saw the Xinfengjiang Reservoir, Yang Ming thought of Qiandao Lake.

Naturally, I also thought of the water here.

Water is money.

He thought that one of the richest men in the country later became the richest man by relying on water.

In this case, why doesn't he also invest in water?

What's more, both the current Wanlu Lake and the later Qiandao Lake are good investments and water sources.
