甘宁青地区的回族大多沿中原农区和青藏、内蒙两大牧区的过渡相嵌地带分布,以其善经商的本领,通农牧之有无。近代以后,由于西北地区的羊毛大量出口,甘宁青的回族商人更是发挥了这种商业贸易优势,并且利用其特有的穆斯林社会网络资源,在很大程度上垄断了当时的羊毛贸易。 Most of the Hui people in Gansu-Ningxia region are distributed along the transitional phase of the two pastoral areas of the Central Plains and the Qinghai-Tibet and Nei Meng areas, with the ability of doing good business and passing through agriculture and animal husbandry. Since the modern times, because of the large amount of wool exported from northwest China, the Hui merchants in Gansu Ningxia took advantage of this commercial trade and used their unique Muslim social network resources to largely monopolize the then wool trade.
