Chapter 204, Rider
It is indeed difficult to find buildings with ethnic characteristics in big cities, Ye Kai only saw waiters wearing Inner Mongolian costumes outside some hotels, and most of them were Chinese.
It seems that like Tibet, if you want to experience the customs of Inner Mongolia, you have to go to the countryside.
Driving along the road planned by navigation, Ye Kai did not see the grassland around this road, but felt that Ordos had a desert temperament unique to the great northwest.
But the further you go, the greener you get.
If it weren't for the tire prints on the sand, Ye Kaidu wondered if he had taken the wrong path and returned to the Loess Plateau.
The navigation has always shown that Ye Kai is walking on the accurate road, and he didn't see the town along the road, and of course there was no navigation inside.
The green became more and more, and a road from left to right appeared in front of him, and he suddenly stopped the car.
It seems that I am really going the wrong way.
Ye Kai opened the navigation and re-planned the route, there were several roads without taking the high road, and the Qinghai-Tibet line was the one Ye Kai saw in front of him.
But Ye Kai drove the car over from another road.
"I actually drove the wrong way one day?"
If you drive along the Qinghai-Tibet line again, it will be much easier to drive here, and there will be more people and cars.
On the side of the road, you can also see some people walking from the Qinghai-Tibet line to Lhasa.
Seeing that there was a street sign on the side of the road that said the Jungger flag, Ye Kai drove inside, wasting a long time, and finally saw the city.
Inner Mongolia is very large, even if you cross the city casually, you may have to take a whole day by car. So when Ye Kai chose to take this Qinghai-Tibet line, he was ready to set up a tent and sleep at night.
Fortunately, I met a small town.
Starting from Yulin to Inner Mongolia, the further you go, the colder it gets, and it feels okay in Ordos, but the outdoor temperature is estimated to be only five degrees when you walk to the Jungger Banner.
Ye Kai parked the car on the side of the road, took out a coat from his luggage and put it on, and then got out of the car.
After getting off the bus, Ye Kai noticed that there was a school not far away, and now that school was over, countless middle school students wearing school uniforms came out of the school, and the scene was very spectacular.
And as we all know, there are bound to be all kinds of delicious snacks outside the school.
Others Ye Kai didn't dare to guarantee it, but outside the school from childhood to adulthood, he could always find some snacks that he liked and tasted very good.
Walking around the school, Ye Kai soon saw this unknown 'snack street', no matter what the original name was, this name must not be wrong.
The whole street is filled with the smell of meat.
Kebabs with the smell of cumin are definitely addictive.
There are a variety of seasonings, and naturally it is not the most original Mongolian barbecue taste. The service area along the way sells these kebabs with seasonings.
Since I have never eaten Mongolian barbecue, the taste of the two types of barbecue cannot be compared, but the beef and mutton in Inner Mongolia are paired with the seasoning that has been researched over the years.
This fragrance fascinates Ye Kai.
When he entered a shop and sat down according to his instincts, Ye Kai finally heard Mongolian.
The three Mongolians sat not far from Ye Kai, and on the table was a round, very elegant large plate, which contained a large piece of meat, which should have just been made, and still made a sizzling sound.
All three of them are so strong.
It's either fat, or it's strong, with muscles and horizontal flesh at the same time.
What kind of meat is in the plate?
The owner of the shop saw someone come in and sit down, walked over and asked, "What do you want to eat?"
Ye Kai glanced at the table and said, "Is there any such dish?"
"It's a roast whole lamb, which is very troublesome, and you need to order it a day in advance if you want it. If you're in a hurry, you can take a look at the other dishes we have here, they all taste good. ”
"That's a pity. ”
The dishes of the restaurant are all hung on the wall, and there are few types, Ye Kai ordered dry pot chicken and a few skewers of lamb skewers.
The kebab here is not the kind of lamb skewer with only a trace of meat in the mainland, but a large piece of meat, so big that it can be eaten directly by hand, and this is what Ye Kai ate on the road before.
Several Mongolians noticed Ye Kai when Ye Kai mentioned that he wanted to eat roasted whole sheep, discussed it and shouted: "Hey, friend......"
Ye Kai looked left and right, and finally asked hesitantly, "You guys...... Are you calling me?"
"Yes, yes, let's come and eat with friends. ”
Ye Kai himself is not a very good communicator, so he finished reading a whole set of books on micro-expressions, and only after finding that they were not joking, did he nod and walked over.
It's true that Inner Mongolians are hospitable, but they are definitely not warm strangers.
It's 2020, and being so hospitable all day long has been eaten by domestic tourists more than ten years ago, so if you are not familiar with it, they will not invite you to eat together.
In fact, Inner Mongolia is very similar to Tibetan areas, both have been developed into famous tourist attractions, attracting countless domestic tourists.
These tourists have all kinds of behavior, so the enthusiasm of Inner Mongolians today for mainlanders is not as hot as it was a few decades ago.
At the rectangular table, the three of them sit, Ye Kai sat in the remaining position, turned back and shouted to the boss: "Boss, replace the dry pot chicken with a large portion, and there are twenty more mutton skewers." ”
I didn't think about whether I could finish eating Ye Kai, but it was better than not enough.
"You don't have to change it, there's a lot of meat here. The person sitting opposite Ye Kai said.
The appearance of the Mongols is not particularly different from that of the Han Chinese, but the skin is a little darker, and the person who sits opposite Ye Kai has relatively long hair and a beard around his mouth.
On this cold day, he also wears white short sleeves, his eyes are small, half-squinted, and he looks friendly.
"When I first arrived in Inner Mongolia, I always wanted to eat more of what was here, and the meat here was really delicious. Ye Kai said.
Hearing the tourists praise the things in their hometown, several people laughed and said, "Eat, the sheep here are dragged from my house, fragrant." ”
While talking, the wine came, and Ye Kai was a little confused.
Wouldn't it be a bar?
The boss brought four bowls, which were bigger than the bowls for eating, and it is not an exaggeration to call them sea bowls.
The roasted whole sheep has not moved for so long, but after filling the wine, he first picked up the wine bowl and said, "First of all, I will give our new friend a glass!"
The three of them said something Mongolian to Ye Kai with a wine bowl, Ye Kai didn't understand, but their next move was to drink all the wine in the bowl.
I always felt that sharing a table was not a good decision.
Ye Kai was a little nervous, and smiled at them with the bowl, and then slowly drank the bowl of wine as if he were dead......
It doesn't seem to be very strong......
Breathed a sigh of relief.
Seeing that Ye Kai had dried this bowl of wine, the atmosphere on the table began to liven up, and in order to take care of Ye Kai, they did not speak Mongolian, but chatted in Mandarin.
Only then did Ye Kai know that they were all riders of the Jungger Banner, and they were going to participate in a competition here tomorrow.
Rider.
It usually refers to Ele.me or Meituan's delivery people, but they are obviously not food delivery.
