The West used to make many tourists curious when there are lands with mysterious anecdotes that are still inexplicable. One of them is a mysterious field full of gold in Vinh An hamlet, Vinh Dai commune (Tan Hung, Long An).

The "golden field" is a true story in Vinh An hamlet, Vinh Dai commune, Tan Hung district, Long An province. What Mr. Sau Ly has witnessed is "a terrible golden fortune" on dozens of acres of fields. Someone found an object like a golden crown, a round frame like a fingertip, about 20cm in diameter. There was another guy who dug and saw a bunch of yellow bananas, each fruit was a thin piece of gold, very skillfully processed.

"What happened more than 35 years ago, people in the hamlet, from the old to the young, can tell the story of the wall as if it was just yesterday. It is so special and rare that it has been imprinted in our minds.

That field is located right next to Dong Rang Bridge, in the past, the whole hamlet went there to hunt for gold. I also got a few threads, some people even got the whole tree," said Ms. Bay (65 years old) - a resident in the hamlet.

After that, Ms. Bay revealed that that year the field had a lot of gold, but it was only concentrated in more than a dozen acres near Mr. Sau Ly's house. She said that there used to be a Golden Rice farm here. The people in the hamlet all work for that farm. After that, the land was barren, the melon people were poorer, and the water source was scarce, so only one crop was cultivated each year.

"At the time of the discovery of gold - in the 80s, the field was abandoned for many years because it could not be cultivated. It becomes a melaleuca forest, a good tree. One day, people spread the news that a buffalo herder accidentally picked up a large gold nugget, so the whole hamlet came together.

At first, I didn't believe it, but I ran out and saw a few dozen people digging and cutting down melaleuca grass to find gold. Since then, I have also joined the game and dug up a few threads, which is very fun," Ms. Bay confided.

As soon as she finished speaking, Ms. Bay affirmed that the person who understands the "golden field" best in the hamlet is none other than Mr. Sau Ly. Because the land of his house was the center of the gold field that year. He is also the one who used to live and die with "heaven's fortune".

Mr. Sau Ly once said that that afternoon he was picking morning glory behind the house when he suddenly saw a group of strangers hanging around in the wilderness looking for something with a very mysterious appearance. He immediately ran back and asked for a long time, but a woman said that he was looking at gold. He didn't believe it because there was no such thing, he had never seen anyone say that this field had gold in many years of living here. But when the group showed him a small piece of gold like a thin screw, he was stunned.

Since then, Mr. Sau Ly's family has been looking for gold day and night and the first pieces of gold have "appeared", surprising everyone. "Me and some people in the hamlet have chosen soft soil and then pumped water in to dig it easily. I was squeezing the ground when I stopped because I felt something very hard and unusually heavy. I hurriedly washed my hands and brought them to the inspector. They said it was gold and offered to buy it. At that time, I really believed that the field had real gold. I decided to leave everything in the house, mobilize everyone to look for golden fortune," the Long An man recalled.

At first, only a few households in the hamlet fumbled and everyone had their own results. Then the good news spread far away, thousands of people gathered in this place in search of "heavenly fortune". At first, only a few households knew about the story, and were curious to grope for luck. Unexpectedly, everyone saw "fortune", few people, many people, they shouted with joy so that no one could sit still. Rumors echoed far and wide, just a few months later, thousands of people gathered in Vinh An hamlet to search.

Mr. Sau said: "I have never witnessed such a scene. Not only residents here but also people from four countries from Long Xuyen, Dong Thap Muoi regions... pouring in more and more, without telling the story. People with boats and boats gather in one place, extending the 62 canal, storing food and fuel for a whole month. The rest gathered in groups, set up hundreds of tents, and filled the field of several tens of acres of the Golden Rice Farm. Not only that, traders from all over the world also flocked to buy and sell gold as soon as people dug it. The poor countryside is suddenly bustling and more crowded than ever."

Every day, the number of people flocking is getting larger, markets are set up to trade all kinds of items. From food to "mining" tools and such as pans, stalls, shovels or anything else for the search process are served at the door. Entertainment and entertainment services from the city have flooded in, making everyone no longer want to go home, standing by the field day and night. Some people "win" to invite people to eat, drink and sing all night, the next morning work is not there. The goldsmiths are on duty at the beginning of the field, just waiting for the person holding the gold to run out and bid for it, always making this place no different from a busy market. Until now, he and his relatives in the area still regret recalling that glorious time.

Referring to his "feats", Mr. Sau Ly admitted that during those years he had participated in digging for "golden fortune" and picked up many objects made of gold and silver, selling them for money. But in retrospect, the total amount of gold he treated was also a few threads, all of which were made jewelry, and the golden age was very low.
