In Zhao Yu's view, the temple fair held in Changle County is more like a large-scale bazaar.

It's just that unlike the markets outside the city, the fairs last longer, the venues are larger, and the number of people is larger.

Of course, in addition, there are rare prefectural orders that will also appear at the temple fair, and because of the beautiful meaning of the temple fair, every time the temple fair is opened, it will always attract many people to come to play or worship.

In general, the temple fair can be regarded as the most important festival of the year in Changle County.

Not only are there many vendors like them, but there are also many officials who maintain the order and safety of the temple fair.

Temporarily stopping the cart in his hand, Li first asked Zhao Shanyu to go to the registration office not far away to register his identity.

This is also what the officials who checked when they came over.

After all, there are many people in the temple fair, and in order to maintain the order of the temple fair and prevent vicious incidents, the vendors who come to sell must register with the government to prove their identity.

Because a few people came early, there were not many people at the registration office, and Zhao Shanyu only lined up for a while, and it was his turn.

Obediently hand in the voucher, pay the money, answer some questions honestly, and when he comes back, the voucher in his hand becomes a hard card.

On the back of the hard card are neatly rowed and numbered, which is also where they set up their stall at the temple fair today.

"No. 20 in the third row, mother, this location is good, close to the center of the temple fair, there are many people there, and our shop is not worried about no one," Zhao Shanyu read out the words on the hard card, and at the same time spoke to Li with a happy face.

"Well, it's good," Li Shi also nodded with satisfaction, followed her to look around, and saw that there were more and more crowds gathered, and hurriedly waved everyone to leave, "Quick, hurry up to this position and set up the stall as soon as possible." ”

They sell food, and they can prepare it as soon as possible, and people from the province will rush over and be in a hurry.

When everyone heard this, they nodded in unison and pushed the cart to rush there.

…………

At the end of the day, the stall was finally erected under the busy work of everyone.

Because of the nature of the temple fair, the pavement left for them will not be too large, so Li and the others put together the wooden planks they brought into a concave shape, and only paved the pavement in front of which is enough for three people to move, and the rest are all placed on both sides of the body to place some raw materials that will be used.

Behind the stall, just two steps away, there are two simple stoves and an iron frame for skewers.

Put the iron pot on the stove, Li poured out the bone broth stored in the clay pot early, added firewood to the bottom of the stove, covered the iron pot with a lid, and used low heat to warm the soup.

Fans also use the wooden basin at home to soak in water early.

Considering the amount of hot and sour noodles and the amount that can be made at one time, at Zhao Yu's suggestion, Li specially made a few small round colanders, which only need to sit in boiling water in the colander and put vermicelli and vegetables in it, and then they can be blanched and served smoothly.

Unloading the vegetables on the cart, Li arranged for Zhao Jinyan to take Zhao Dongmei to pick vegetables.

Then, she took Zhao Yinyan and Liu, washed her hands, and took out the wooden skewers that had been sharpened at home and skewered the marinated meat skewers.

The skewered meat skewers were placed in a clean wooden basin and covered with a wooden cover, and then Zhao Shanyu took them down and put them away.

Zhao Shanyu also took the opportunity to set up his own board and iron frame, and by the way, he also laid all the charcoal in the iron frame.

By the way, take out a clean rag and wipe all the tables, chairs and benches in front of the stall.

Because there were lost incidents in the previous temple fairs, the tables, chairs and benches are now provided by the government, and they all bear the imprint of the government.

Before the opening of the temple fair, Zhao Shanyu took out all the dishes and chopsticks he brought from home.

This batch of bowls and chopsticks are specially ordered for the temple fair, and there is a small black flower shape on the edge of the bowls and chopsticks, which is also to distinguish them from other homes to prevent unnecessary losses.

The dishes and chopsticks were taken out and arranged, Zhao Shanyu washed his hands, and then stood quietly behind the stall and looked at the lively scenery around him.

As the weather heats up, more and more vendors gather around, and the popularity is getting stronger and stronger.

……………

Halfway through the hour, distant bells rang out from far and near.

With the sound of the bell came silence.

Everyone stood silently, staring ahead.

Zhao Yu and a few villains also dropped the vegetables they picked halfway early.

In the distance, the county commander wearing a red-robed official uniform was surrounded by everyone and walked in the direction of the Laojun Temple.

Coincidentally, the surrounding people all knelt down and buckled their heads after seeing the county order outcropping.

Because of kneeling, Zhao Yu's expression was still a little unhappy.

It's a pity that she couldn't screw Li and was forcibly pressed on her head.

After about a quarter of an hour of maintaining this posture, everyone stood up from the ground as the abbot of the Laojun Temple suddenly erupted in a huge cheer.

…………

The temple fair officially began.

Outside, groups of people began to pour into the temple fair.

The originally quiet temple fair instantly became lively.

There was the young man and woman, with shy expressions, who came together.

There is also a tall and strong man, holding his own child with one hand and his mother-in-law with the other, with a smile on his face.

Or that same-sex friend, high-spirited and talking.

There are also a lot of street vendors selling all kinds of small items around.

In the past, there are jugglers, turntables, monkeys, tricks...... Zhao Yu, who was watching, wanted to rush over to take a look.

The vendors selling food are spread out one by one, and you can't see the end at a glance, meat buns, noodles, dried fruit preserves, sugar people, dim sum, wontons......

Of course, the special thing is the skewers and hot and sour noodles that they sell at home.

The rich bone broth with heavy ingredients boiled out the flavor, seducing the taste buds of passers-by.

The aroma of the skewers wafts through the air.

The big man who sold pies next to him couldn't stand it, so he simply paid for it and asked for a sour powder and skewers directly, and after eating, the big man licked his lips, touched his belly, which was not a bulge, and asked for another one.

It doesn't matter if you want it, you directly blew up the people around you who smelled the aroma and hesitated to buy it.

As soon as everyone saw the performance of the big man, they knew that this hot and sour noodles and skewers must be good.

shouted, and ran over to line up to buy.

There are more and more people queuing up, and their snack shop is also completely popular.

The business is really good, so many people come and go, see the excitement, there are always those who can't stop coming to try it, as long as they have eaten it, they like it very much, and even many people have bought an extra one to take away.

Li Shile can't do it, and one person can be responsible for collecting money without making mistakes.

Occasionally, I can talk to the diners who come to buy food.

The small stall was chatting hotly, although they didn't know each other, but the atmosphere was very lively.

"Knock ———"

In the distance, the bell rang, and the hour had passed.

The lively sound of gongs and drums came from the Laojun Temple.

A team dressed brightly, with two red lions in front of them twisted.

"Daddy, look, it's a lion."

"yes, yes, it's hilarious,"

"I heard that this pair of lions was invited from Yangcheng County,"

“……”

In the distance, as the lion twisted closer and closer, the surrounding people were all smiling, and adults and children were pointing at each other, so lively.
