How does 50 thousand gold under water become 10 million?

At the age of 18, he was forced to leave his hometown because of changes in his family, and he could not count 10 fingers in the industry he had worked in. But instead of turning around, he went bankrupt. Just then, a fish he called underwater gold rewrote his fate. This kind of fish will change color, and this kind of fish can live without water. He relied on this fish, 50, 000 yuan a year and a half, and his wealth increased 200-fold in seven years. Xiao Jinsong of Dongguan, Guangdong, how on earth did he rewrite his fate with underwater gold?

This is Xiao Jinsong's breeding base. As soon as he got here, Xiao Jinsong took the reporter to the quagmire and said he was going to dig for RMB.

Xiao Jinsong: let's dig casually, one piece will be a red RMB, and you can calculate how much we have left.

Interviewer: do you hide a lot of fish?

Xiao Jinsong: that is, all the gold is down there.

Xiao Jinsong has 50 such fish ponds, which he says are all his underwater gold. This makes the reporter very curious about what fish is so valuable. Hearing what Xiao Jinsong said, visitors to the fish pond couldn't help it. They rushed down with a basket, scrambling to see the true face of the underwater gold.

A full 50 centimeters of mud makes it impossible to move an inch. For a time, the whole fish pond was turned upside down, and there was no sign of gold under the water. Xiao Jinsong had to do it himself. he said he must be gentle enough to treat his fish.

Xiao Jinsong: the harder you push, the more it runs. Slowly grab its belly and catch it. Be gentle and treat the fish gently. Like a girl.

According to Xiao Jinsong's instructions, the whole fish pond was quiet and everyone was fishing quietly. Sure enough, someone caught it soon.

Xiao Jinsong: we beauties have caught a big one.

One after another, everyone caught the fish. Just when everyone was ready to wash the fish clean and catch a glimpse of the true face of the underwater gold, there was an emergency on the other side.

Are you scared?

Scared.

I am freaked out.

What scares the children is the fish that has just come out of the mud, and everyone's attention is in the fish's mouth. Our camera can only capture a big tongue, and in order to take a closer look, the reporter took such a picture with his mobile phone.

A big tongue, mouth full of teeth, washed fish looks really scary. Xiao Jinsong said: despite the fact that the fish are ugly, they are actually very gentle. And its name has something to do with its appearance.

Xiao Jinsong: this fish stands up like a bamboo shoot. The bamboo shoot also has a sharp tail here. It gets fat in the middle. Does it look like you? so it is called bamboo shoot shell fish.

The reason why it is called underwater gold, first, because the price is relatively high, second, because this kind of fish has a characteristic, it is black in the air, it becomes golden when it is put in the water. More miraculously, Xiao Jinsong claimed that the fish could still live even if it left the water.

Xiao Jinsong: our fish can live 72 hours without boiling water.

Reporter: can you live for three days and three nights?

Xiao Jinsong: you can live for three days and three nights.

Interviewer: without water?

Xiao Jinsong: if there is no water, you will leave whoever you leave. There is no water at all.

It is said that fish can not do without water, this is no water, bamboo shoots shell fish can really live? The next scene was an eye-opener to the reporter.

Consumer Europe: I caught it at 12:00 today.

Interviewer: what time is it?

Consumer Europe: it is now (afternoon) 02:30.

Reporter: is this fish dead?

Consumer Europe: not dead, alive.

Consumer Chen Xiuli: it has been about three hours. We came here after 12:00 at noon to catch it. Until now we have finished our meal. Take this.

It is precisely because of the bamboo shoot shell fish that can change color and live without water, Xiao Jinsong changed the fate of not making money for ten years, earning 700000 yuan a year with his wife's private money of 50,000 yuan. Since then, his wealth has increased several times every year, and no one knows the exact number. But we all know that he made a lot of money from bamboo shoot shell fish.

Wang Qingcheng, Deputy Mayor of Hongmei Town people's Government, Dongguan City: to make money, you can see that his scale is expanding, a lot of facilities and equipment are expanding.

Li Zicong, a fish feed wholesaler: other small bosses only use eight or nine tons of feed a month, and this big boss uses more than 30 tons of feed a month.

Zhang Chunxiu, agronomist of Agricultural Technical Service Center of Hongmei Town, Dongguan City: of course, it is one of the best in the whole city and the whole province.

Walking through several wholesale aquatic products markets in Dongguan, the reporter did not find a stall for selling bamboo shoot shell fish, and many people have not even heard of the name. So how did Xiao Jinsong find the bamboo shoot shell fish and use it to make money for seven years in a row? It had to start with the batch of fish he raised that he could not sell.

Mayong Town, Dongguan City, Guangdong Province is Xiao Jinsong's hometown and his sad place. At the age of 18, he was forced to leave with his mother and young brother.

Xiao Jinsong: you don't have to say in front of me every day that I won't pay it back all my life. Won't I do anything for the rest of my life?

His father died of a serious illness, leaving a debt of 250000 yuan. His mother had no income, and his younger brother was still in school. Xiao Jinsong was surrounded by pitiful eyes and unoptimistic words. When he moved his family to the urban area of Dongguan, he was secretly determined not only to repay the debt, but also to make some achievements.

Over the past 10 years, he has set up stalls, opened convenience stores, opened Internet cafes and collected waste products, and has worked in an industry with 10 fingers, but Xiao Jinsong's wealth has been spinning around in place. In 2006, when he saw someone raising catfish to make money, Xiao Jinsong also contracted 30 mu of fish ponds to start fish farming. Catfish went on the market a year later, with a cost of nearly 3 yuan per jin, and the market price was only 70 cents. Not only did he not make any money, but Xiao Jinsong also went bankrupt.

Wife Zhang Yanting: it's like a monthly salary, but you're basically worried about it before the middle of the month.

Xiao Jinsong: I don't know why it's so difficult to make money. I've done it in all industries. I don't know if it's the wrong method or something.

If this fish is disposed of, it can be changed for 10,000 to 20,000 yuan. Whether it is raised or not, it has become a worry for Xiao Jinsong. He shut himself in the house and forced himself to find a way out. Two days later, he really had an idea. In this way, he made 800000 yuan in a year and a half with fish that could only lose money.

Since the fish has been sold at a loss and the fish pond is still there, can the loss-making live fish be used as feed to raise higher-priced fish? After searching the Internet, Xiao Jinsong found that there was a kind of fish that was almost tailor-made for him.
