Explanation of Major Matters: Lucky Draw, Two Daily Updates, and Other Items

As I mentioned before, I recently suffered from an intestinal obstruction, was hospitalized for a few days, took leave, and am now recovering my health. Everyone has been looking forward to resuming two daily updates; starting tonight, we will try this out. I will strive to write, but I cannot guarantee two chapters every single day; I will simply do my best. On weekends, I need to accompany my child to extracurricular classes, so it may not be that easy then. Next, let me discuss a few matters.

First, because this book now has its first Operations Officer, Yu Guo Jiu Tian Qing from Taiwan, something I have long wanted to do can finally be put on the agenda.

Second is the push for the Monthly Ticket rankings. At the end of last month, I requested monthly tickets at the end of a chapter; our votes surged into the top one hundred, and although we were squeezed out at the very last moment, I saw the potential of monthly tickets. Therefore, this month I plan to make a push for the Monthly Ticket rankings. Additionally, now that we have an Operations Officer, I also intend to repay everyone's support for this book by organizing a lucky draw throughout April. For every one thousand monthly tickets, there will be one winning slot. I am currently looking for a mini-program to conduct the draw using the serial numbers of the monthly tickets. For readers who win, I will mail some local specialties from my area: dried fruits and original-flavor milk curds (including camel milk curds—rest assured, these are not the sour kind that are inedible, but the original flavor). I will also check whether dried snow lotus flowers are available. Furthermore, I plan to occasionally update the specialty gifts in the coming months; for instance, when the small red apricots arrive in June or July, I can mail those, and by year's end, there will be smoked horse sausage and smoked horse meat, etc. Of course, each gift package is worth roughly one hundred yuan. Since Qidian provides rewards for monthly tickets at a rate of one prize per thousand votes, which basically amounts to one hundred yuan, I will cover the postage myself. I hope everyone participates actively and enthusiastically. We will hold the first draw at the end of this month, based on the serial numbers of the monthly tickets.

Of course, since this is the first time organizing such an event, there will inevitably be some oversights; I ask for everyone's forgiveness in advance, and we will gradually improve things later on.

Third, as our Operations Officer mentioned in the discussion forum, this book's "Crossover Index" is good in every aspect except for interaction. The Operations Officer has created a check-in post; those who have time should check in frequently, post chapter comments, or participate in discussions to boost our book's popularity. This will help us reach Level Three of the Crossover Index, at which point the quota for fan titles will increase. I do not know exactly what use this increase serves, but surely it must be useful.

Fourth, I wish to thank the friends who donated over the past two days: thank you to "Crocodile's Tears l" for the large donation; thank you to reader "20210301106491589776" for donating; thank you to "Black Brother Ah Niu," reader "20241114865_eb," "Needles Heal Fast," "Embroidered Spring Pavilion Bodyguard," "Liang Fangxing," reader "202504039448," "20250322132205672," and others for your donations. Thank you all for your monthly tickets, subscriptions, recommendation tickets, and various forms of support.

I will strive to write well; I hope everyone enjoys it. (End of Chapter)
