The business was under the unified leadership of the village party branch, villager' committee and the village task force. All the 117 households from Lieda Village became shareholders of the construction team. At present, the construction team owns more than 70 sets of transport equipment, and an expanding business scope. Each year, every household can get a dividend of around 10,000 yuan RMB.

Meanwhile, a tourism service reception center integrating exhibition hall, parking lot, business hotel and restaurant has been built. Up to now, 112 Tibetan-style family inns are under operating with a total annual income of about 336,000 yuan RMB every year.

At present, 500 pieces of cultural relics have been collected from the villagers.
