Among them are white millet and yellow chrysanthemum.

White Millet's father, a weasel, offered 12,000 catties of food. Yellow Millet's mother offered 14,000 catties of food.

The other three households offered between 10,000 and 30,000 catties of food, and the corresponding candidates were Lu Xiaonan, Xiao Xiao, and Zhang Mubai.

Li Qiusheng found the five households that had bid the highest and sent them the same message: "After tonight, your votes will be ranked in the top five according to your bids, to prove the shopkeeper's ability. Tomorrow, please prepare food and deliver it to the shop. If the food is delivered, the votes will naturally follow. If the food is not delivered, the shopkeeper can increase your votes, and he can also decrease them."

"Remember, never reveal the location of the shop to anyone, not even the district chief or the Moon Goddess if they send someone to ask," Li Qiusheng whispered. "The district chief doesn't want the citizens to know that the votes were tampered with, otherwise our dignity, and even the Moon Goddess's dignity, will all be lost."

All five households agreed.

After spreading the message, Li Qiusheng used earth-遁 (earth-遁 is a type of escape technique) to make a quick getaway and avoid being followed.

That day, before nightfall, the top ten people in terms of votes were as follows:

White millet

Quietly

Cheng Shu

Sun Wanwan

Li Xiu

Star

Tianhua

Hong Le

Zhu Guanshan

Lu Xiaonan

The ranking of these ten is nothing special, but the surprising ones are Zhou Meimei, Huang Xiaohua, Bai Mei, and Lu Danggui, among others.

Their appearances did not conform to the aesthetic standards of previous years, but many people still voted for them, especially Zhou Meimei, who actually ranked sixteenth on her own merit.
