Transportation is dominated by roads.
The two earth dragons that extend from Helan Mountain surround the city, forming two dragons playing with pearls, and Bayanhot Town is the pearl of two dragons playing.
The endless Gobi Desert highlights the beautiful small town, where the environment is elegant and the people are outstanding. The geographical advantage makes Bayanhot town become the largest trading market of desert strange stones, the old town of the town is scattered with many desert strange stone shops, and the more concentrated strange stone market is tens of thousands of strange stone markets, herdsmen strange stone squares, strange stone streets, etc.
From a distance, most of the buildings in the old town of Bayanhot are still in the old style, and this quaintness immediately makes people feel that it is different from the towns in the mainland, as if they have stepped back in time 20 years ago.
Mr. Du Wenzhi, vice president of the China Stone Association, has been committed to the cause of ornamental stones for many years, and has a large collection of desert strange stones.
His Alxa Stone Appreciation Museum is located in the bustling commercial center of Bayanhot Town, with a large number of exquisite Alxa stones displayed in the hall on the first and second floors of hundreds of square meters.
This is the location of the earliest Alxa Left Banner Mining Company, in the local commercial center location, where there are many department stores, home appliance shopping malls, shops, and a large share of shops operating in the desert strange stones.
Mr. Du was waiting at the gate early.
He is 47 years old this year, handsome, with a towering forehead, and when he saw Mr. Wang, a pair of big hands stretched out and held it firmly.
Kowloon hurriedly introduced himself, and President Du shook hands with Kowloon with a smile and said welcome.
President Du took the two of them to the tea area, at this time, there was already a person making tea at the tea table, President Du introduced him as his friend, surnamed Yan, the name is strong, and he can be regarded as a famous person who plays the strange stones of the Gobi Desert, everyone greeted each other, and then sat down to make tea.
Mr. Wang explained his intention directly to President Du.
President Du was not polite, he told Kowloon about his history of playing with stones.
He was the first to bring the Alxa Stone to the market, the first to open the Stone Museum, and the first to move the network of the China Stone Association to Alxa.
In 1982, after graduating from high school at the age of 16, Du Wenzhi entered the jade carving craft factory of Alxa League Mining Company as an apprentice and became the first batch of jade carvers in Alxa.
Alxa is rich in agate, jasper, crystal and all kinds of gemstones, at that time, the jade carving factory was very rich in raw materials, carving jade pieces with large pieces of raw materials, unlike now can only use some broken and discarded scraps.
At that time, people did not have the concept of strange stones, and they did not know that the strange stones of Alxa could be sold for sky-high prices in the future.
Du Wenzhi saw these natural stones, colorful, different forms, vivid, it was so beautiful, he couldn't bear to cut, so he picked some good-looking stones from the pile of raw materials and left, his own collection, playing, watching, over time, he actually accumulated a lot of strange stones.
In the spring of 1986, Du Wenzhi, who was already a salesman of the company, went with the Inner Mongolia Import and Export Company to participate in the Guangzhou Fair.
Unexpectedly, his stone attracted the attention of many people as soon as it was displayed, a Taiwanese businessman had a strong interest in Du Wenzhi's stone, stopped in front of the booth for a long time, refused to leave, he carefully watched each stone, couldn't put it down, took out 2,800 yuan on the spot, and bought all these stones.
The price of the rough stone actually sold for the processed jade, which surprised Du Wenzhi.
This Taiwanese businessman was still unsatisfied, and signed a contract with him for the purchase of 100 tons and 180,000 strange stones, and signed such a large contract at one time, and it was a stone contract, which was really explosive news in the mining company, and the unemployed young people in the mining company at that time only had a monthly salary of 28 yuan.
This Canton Fair has doubled Du Wenzhi's confidence in Alxa Strange Stone, and he has a new understanding of the value and prospect of Alxa Strange Stone.
After returning, Du Wenzhi began to organize the supply, and he led the workers to Wuliji Sumusu Hongtu in the north of the Alxa Left Banner, and set up tents on the Gobi Desert to pick up stones.
Du Wenzhi said that at that time, although the conditions were very difficult, but now that I think about it, I am so happy, the beach is full of good stones, you can pick up a pile after walking a few steps, and after picking up a pile, a truck and a truck pull back.
At the second Canton Fair, Du Xuezhi signed a supply contract of 80 tons with Taiwanese merchants.
After this, Du Wenzhi has a new understanding of the stone, he feels that the stone of Alxa is very collectible, the strange stone resources of Alxa are rich, according to this sale, there is a day when it is sold out, so that the ton to buy, too cheap, can not reflect the true value of the strange stone, he decided that in the future, can not be sold in this way, but should be sold by a person.
In 1996, when the Arab League Mining Company was transformed, Du Wenzhi took over the mining company, as a member of the Standing Committee of the CPPCC of the Arab League, he put forward a proposal to the CPPCC that year, hoping to build an Alxa Stone Museum to show the unique charm of the Alxa Stone to the outside world.
But it was such a proposal, many people thought it was incredible at the time, some told strange things, some read jokes, but I didn't expect that the then secretary of the Arab League Committee Fu was very supportive of his proposal, and happily put pen to his stone pavilion inscription.
In this way, Du Wenzhi built the first stone hall in Alxa and became the first person to eat crabs in the strange stone world of the Arab League.
Since then, driven by Du Wenzhi, the Alxa Stone Museum has sprung up everywhere in Bayanhot, a large number of people have invested in the strange stone industry, and the strange stone has become one of the most active industries in Alxa, and the strange stone of Alxa has attracted the attention of stone friends across the country, and the value of the strange stone is rising and rising exponentially.
Nowadays, Du Wenzhi's interest is no longer limited to the collection of strange stones, he also processes, carves and seats strange stones while operating the stone museum, which greatly lengthens the chain of the strange stone industry. In 2008, he made another amazing move to move the website of the China Stone Association to Alxa.
Indeed, President Du, like Teacher Wang Tianran, is a person of foresight, and it is not a problem at all to make money in the stone world.
Jiulong also wanted to know what strange stones could be played in the Alxa Gobi Desert, and when President Du was about to answer, his phone rang, and he signaled that Jiulong could ask Yan Liqiang this question, and he could also answer Jiulong's question, and then went outside to answer the phone.
