The billions of dollars brought by the flood

This piece of water, let many gold prospectors flock in, frenzied salvage for three months, but disappointed, Cai Yunlou also want to make this windfall, in others' wait-and-see, he finally let millions of wealth fall from the sky. Others admire his good luck, but he says that behind every ingenious idea is a careful layout. On this more than 200,000 mu of water and grassland, see how Cai Yunlou in Zhaoyuan County, Heilongjiang Province, let wealth knock on the door.

Fisherman: come on, lift the starting point, come on, warp the point, higher point, lift the bottom, lift the bottom, 123, all right.

Reporter: how many jin of fish does this cost?

Cai Yunlou: there is no shortage of fish today.

Fisherman: yes.

Cai Yunlou: how many jin of fish have been produced?

Fisherman: it must weigh more than 300 jin.

His name is Cai Yunlou, and he is the owner of this piece of water. When a net of fish comes up, we find that Cai Yunlou's fish have a characteristic of different sizes and varieties.

This big fish is silver carp and can weigh 15 jin.

This grass carp also weighs 17 or 8 jin.

Big fish can weigh more than ten jin, how small is the smallest fish? We found something in the mouth of a catfish.

Cai Yunlou: look at the innermost part of this (fish). Look, there are small fish.

Interviewer: really, look at this (fish) still eating small fish in his mouth.

Cai Yunlou: you can see it with your hand, and you can slowly pull it out with your hand.

Interviewer: it eats this little fish, doesn't it?

Cai Yunlou: yes, look.

Interviewer: really.

Cai Yunlou: there are wild miscellaneous fish in the mouth.

The small fish are so small that they become food in the belly of the big fish. All kinds of fish can be seen everywhere in the water of Cai Yunlou, and these fish are like picking up for nothing to Cai Yunlou.

Cai Yunlou: no, never.

Interviewer: don't you feed me?

Cai Yunlou: look at our big water. How can we feed it?

Interviewer: you haven't fed it.

Cai Yunlou: no, no. It would be nice if you could catch it. Neither fry nor feed, because these fish are wild fish, along the river to the surface of Cai Yunlou. In front of this piece of water, there are more than 20,000 mu of water. Cai Yunlou also has six such large water surfaces, which can catch more than 3,000 jin of all kinds of fish every day. The water surface is Cai Yunlou's treasure pot.

The water made Cai Yunlou a local celebrity because 1 million yuan fell from the sky from the day Cai Yunlou got the water.

Cai Yunlou: he was a millionaire overnight. There is a movie in England called "millions of pounds". He also costs millions of pounds overnight, but I have had a dream since that day.

Why did so much money fall overnight to make Cai Yunlou, an ordinary person, worth millions? This is not an exaggeration.

Continuous torrential rains in August 1998 flooded the Nenjiang River and flooded Zhaoyuan County on the banks of the Nenjiang River, where more than a dozen water surfaces appeared. Many people have no time to rebuild their homes, so they set their sights on a chance to get rich in the flood. Because everyone believes that there must be countless wild fish coming along with the river.

The breeding farm where Cai Yunlou works has also formed a surface of more than 20,000 mu, and gold prospectors flock to it.

He Fenglin: there is a lot of competition. After seeing the water rise in 1998, it began to be outsourced in 1999.

People even bid for this piece of water, and the contract fee was getting higher and higher. for a while, a lot of fishing teams came to the surface. But soon people's enthusiasm for fishing cooled down, because no one could catch fish, and everyone wondered where the fish had gone.

From September to December, five waves of people tried to fish on this surface, the longest of which stayed here for more than a month, and even went to the breeding farm to catch fish.

Cai Yunlou: the government has also organized fishing teams, saying that after the flood, there is nothing to do in winter, and fishing teams have been organized, and they have not been caught even if they go fishing in the area.

Jiang Fa: those fishermen around have all been in. After going in, there is no fish coming here. After a wave of walking, they can't even catch it.

He began to scramble for the water and became a wasteland that no one wanted. But at this time, Cai Yun real estate calculated, there should be fish here, he decided to give it a try. In April 1999, Cai Yunlou quit his job at the livestock farm and contracted the water surface at a very low price, but a month later, like everyone else, he did not see a single fish.

Xu Zhiliang: he was so worried. When there was no fish, there was no one to worry about. The money was put in, the fish could not be caught, and the investment was quite large. He had no money himself, including the money on the water surface, labor money, and logistics money. After he invested it, he always felt that he could not see the money back.

Cai Yunlou: in fact, the pressure in my heart is hard for others to think of, because you know that you have a greater responsibility for your family, and the lives of the whole family are on your body.

Cai Yunlou originally wanted to pick up a leak, but never thought that his life was also caught in this piece of water. In order to catch fish, Cai Yunlou hired a fishing team, paid half a cent between the fishing team and the fishing team, and paid the fishing team daily wages if they did not catch the fish. After covering the surface of the water, Cai Yunlou will have no money, and he will be on credit first. if he can't catch fish by the end of June of the following year, Cai Yunlou will face bankruptcy. At this juncture, a miracle happened.

Jiang Fa: at that time, I was directly on the boat, and the fish began to come out that day. The boat was full. 15 or 16 boats were basically full, and even the fish were not finished that day. That was all. It lasted nearly half a month, and every day there were only these fish. It was wonderful. I remember that on the day I came back by boat, I was very excited to get off the boat. I didn't wait to go ashore with my clothes and began to shake. As soon as the big guys saw it, I shook it and knew there was a fish.

Xu Zhiliang: on June 20, after the first boat of fish came out, the boss was really holding his head on the shore, crying and excited. The mood of the boss, I tell you, does not mean that he is worth hundreds of millions of dollars now, but at that time a few hundred yuan was good money.

Cai Yunlou: Mr. Jiang and my fishermen, who held me in their arms, burst into tears. Speaking of it today, this incident also made me very excited, because that day was really the day when my life began.
