Inner Mongolia Really Can Drink, Shandong Guys Were Impressed
When people think of Inner Mongolia, the first thing that comes to mind is galloping horses and vast grasslands. In fact, many places are only known from movies and news if you haven't actually been there.
Inner Mongolian grasslands
It's said that Shandong people can drink. As a Shandong person, I tend to agree, but they often drink high-proof Baijiu, and foreign friends can easily drink half a jin of eight portions. Inner Mongolian people are said to have a large alcohol tolerance and are called 'unfeeling alcohol containers.' A large alcohol tolerance is fine, but the alcohol content is particularly high, with the highest-proof grassland Baijiu reaching 76 degrees. It's also known as 'drunken donkey.'
The passionate Inner Mongolian people who drink and eat a lot
Don't play rock-paper-scissors with Inner Mongolians, because losing means drinking, and winning means drinking beer. If it's a tie, you drink red wine!
The bloody lessons tell me: people from the East Four Leagues really can drink… My colleague from Xin'an Meng is terrifying, they can drink to death; low-alcohol wine can be drunk, but they drink without restraint, treating it like beer, one bowl at a time. A small bowl of wine is high-proof; 53-degree Lang wine is considered an entry-level product.
It terrified me: as a Shandong person, I was almost crushed by them. The question is how to respond—I don't know where I am when I wake up; it was my Inner Mongolian friend who sent me back home, and I woke up in my own bed, with my Inner Mongolian friend sleeping on the sofa for a night, and then he said at noon that you Shandong people not only drink Baijiu but also need to drink beer to quench your thirst; we'll drink more beer at noon.
Every time I hear the word 'alcohol,' I want to vomit. I realized I was not a real Shandong person.
