Originally known as "Fushouquan", in the 25th year of Guangxu (1899), an official of Fuzhou Bureau of Official Money hosted a banquet for Zhou Lian, the envoy of Fujian Province. In order to curry favor with Zhou Lian, he asked his wife to cook it herself, and used Shaoxing jars to fill chicken, duck, mutton, pork tripe, pigeon eggs and seafood 10 kinds of raw materials and auxiliary materials. After Zhou Lian tasted it, she was full of praise. Asked about the name of the dish, the official said that the dish means "good luck, good luck and longevity" and is called "Fushouquan".
