As soon as the sign for the Winter Solstice Poetry Conference was posted, Chu Tiankuo and Liu Qingyan started writing.

This time there are no idiots saying that women cannot participate in the competition. Everyone is asking what the hot spring resort is?

Lu Yan's mouth was dry as she explained: "We have a village in Xiping Town. There are natural hot springs in it. You can go and soak in them. It is good for your health. We also have a dedicated master in the village who can give massages and massages. Playing cards, there are a lot of activities anyway, you can come and have a look!”

Lu Yan made a price list. It costs one tael of gold and one tael of silver per person to reserve before you can enter Zhuangzi. After entering Zhuangzi, you can soak in the hot springs for free and play chess games for free, but there is a charge for food and accommodation. A room in a room costs one silver for an hour. Massage and foot massage with traditional Chinese medicine for half an hour cost one silver. You can choose according to your wishes. Hit up the masseuse.

After everyone saw the price of this hot spring resort, they all backed away, saying that it was too expensive and they couldn't afford to go there.

Lu Yan's position for Zhuangzi was to collect money from the wealthy gentry, so she didn't even think about how many ordinary people would go there. She was not in a hurry, and said with a smile: "So I have to participate in the activities of our two families. Those who are talented can write poems, and those who are lucky can come to my lottery. If you win, you can go without any money. "

When everyone thinks about it, if Zhuangzi can’t afford to go there, how can he still afford a bowl of dumplings? What if you win?

So on the winter solstice, a large crowd gathered around Lu Ji's door early. As soon as Lu Ji opened the door, he came in and asked for dumplings.

The dumplings had been made in advance. People who originally just wanted to eat a bowl of dumplings were confused when they saw the dazzling array of ten kinds of fillings.

"Meat costs eight cents per portion, vegetarian food costs seven cents, and fifteen dumplings per portion." Lu Yan said with a smile, "Vegetarian food costs nine cents. Decide which one you want, and arrange it. A good team points one point at a time.”

This is not expensive at all, but what exactly is this Jinweisu and why is it more expensive than the meat one?

Someone couldn't help but ask this question.

"The reason why Jinwei Su is expensive is because it contains sesame paste and fermented bean curd, which makes it difficult to make." Lu Yan said: "Not only is it expensive, but it is also limited to a total of ten servings. It is sold out before it is sold out."

As soon as these words were spoken, many people immediately changed their minds and decided to try the vegetarian version. It’s only one or two cents more expensive. Is it still worth it after buying it out? If you miss it, it will be gone.

As it turned out, the Jinweisu dumplings were the first to be sold out. Less than an hour after Lu Ji opened the door, the Jinweisu dumplings were already sold out.

The dumpling-eating lottery was in full swing. Sitting at the front desk, Lu Yan felt like she was seeing all kinds of things in the world.

Some people just come here to eat dumplings, and even if they don’t win, they don’t affect their mood. They just laugh and joke with themselves and leave; some people are wealthy and come here just for the lottery and let the maids or servants take the same portion back. As a result, every I drew all the tubes but didn't win any prizes; some people couldn't tell what they were trying to do, so they ordered a dumpling but didn't win, but they were happy because they could order another dumpling. Yes.

Yes, the last one is Chu Tiankuo.

Chu Tiankuo and Liu Qingyan were experts in food research, and they even called their companions. Each of the four men ordered two portions, and Liu Qingyan ordered one portion, which happened to be all nine kinds of stuffings.

Lu Yan: Living in ancient times, she mastered the secret of team building.

Liu Qingyan also regretted: "The Jinweisu was sold out when we arrived. It's a pity that we haven't tried it."

Lu Yan couldn't help but laugh: "What's the pity for you two? You two will definitely win the prize from Dian Mo's place. If you go to Zhuangzi to play, I will be the chef. You can order whatever you want. You guys want vegetarian dumplings?" If you want to eat it, I can pack it for you."

Liu Qingyan was in high spirits: "It's agreed, I'll figure out the recipe when I get back!"

Others were not so naive and asked cautiously: "Shopkeeper Lu, the dishes in Zhuangzi are not particularly expensive, right?"

Lu Yan thought for a while: "It's definitely a little more expensive than Lu Ji, but it's not too expensive. It definitely won't be too expensive for a family like yours." Zhuangzi's real profit comes from the entrance fees and the off-season fruits he grows. Lu Yan didn't plan to make much money on food.

Several people breathed a sigh of relief and were ready to make a move, thinking that even if they couldn't get it for free, they could pay for the date themselves in the future.

At midnight in the evening, all activities of the two families stopped. Lu Yan prepared fifty copies of each of the nine types of dumplings. Forty-nine blank pieces of paper and a winning note were placed in each box to ensure that everyone had the same chance of winning. This leads to a problem, not all the prizes have been drawn.

If all the stuffing is sold out and all the slips of paper in the box are taken out, then the winning one must also be taken out. But not all the boxes were drawn. Jinweisu only drew ten people, so I was very sorry that I didn't get it. There is also cabbage vegetarian stuffing, which is indeed within Lu Yan's expectation, because in the winter, every dumpling is filled with cabbage vegetarian dumplings. Only less than half of them are sold, and there is a pile of notes left in the box.

So this time, Lu Yan only received eight prizes, one first-class, two second-class, and five third-class.

The situation on Song Bowen's side is even more interesting. Lu Yan originally thought that Chu Tiankuo and Liu Qingyan were stable, but under Zhu Jiaoyu's instigation, the county school teachers seemed to come to the team building and contracted the first and second prizes. The students squeezed two people into the third prize.

It was a good risk, but fortunately the number of places was increased, otherwise the two of them would not have been able to go this time.

This is how the winter solstice event ends.
