Chapter 79 The Money-Cheating Dog, Give Me Back My Gold Coins
The onlookers scoffed, "Come on, this guy's begging, okay? It's just a dog, what kind of quests can it give out? Some idiot already lost 500 gold coins, you can have it, I'm not falling for it!"
Ji Xinghan walked into the crowd and saw the dog.
In front of the puppy was a broken bowl containing a pile of gold coins, about twenty or thirty in total.
It pawed at the gold coin with its right paw and barked twice.
One of them took out ten gold coins and put them into the broken bowl.
The dog barked wildly, "Woof woof, you brat, I'll make you poor to death!"
The man thought for a moment, then took out fifteen gold coins and put them into the broken bowl.
The dog barked twice more: "Quick, quick, not enough, little brat, give me two more!"
The man couldn't understand, but the dog's barking was so earnest that he couldn't resist putting in another fifty or sixty gold coins.
The dog slapped the broken bowl with its paw: "Woof woof, not enough, more!"
That person couldn't bear to part with it; he had already given away more than 200 gold coins, but the dog still wouldn't give out any more tasks, it just kept banging on the broken bowl and barking.
He thought for a moment, then took out another 50 gold coins. The person next to him couldn't help but grab him, saying, "Are you crazy? How many gold coins do we have in total? You're planning to give them all to this scammer? He doesn't even know how to give out quests!"
One of them suddenly exclaimed, "Don't you think something's wrong? Many people have given this dog gold coins, but the number of gold coins in its bowl has remained the same, almost unchanged!"
He was shocked: "Does this dog also have a storage backpack?"
Everyone was surprised.
In any case, many players have already given gold coins, but after trying for a long time, the dog has not issued any tasks and only keeps barking.
It sounds like someone is swearing.
It makes people feel very uncomfortable.
Finally, the players left in twos and threes, and no more coins were given to them.
Ji Xinghan walked over and kicked the dog's broken bowl: "Tsk, not bad, Little Sun, you've struck it rich!"
This guy must have begged a lot of gold coins, right?
She's craving it!
The dog quickly rummaged through the broken bowl, and the gold coins inside had vanished.
It grinned and said, "You've finally arrived, woof woof, can I borrow some gold coins?"
Ji Xinghan asked curiously, "What do you need gold coins for?"
The dog's black eyes darted around a few times: "Woof woof, time to get supplies!"
Buying goods?
Ji Xinghan asked in surprise, "What kind of goods are you getting?"
The puppy wagged its tail: "Woof woof, don't worry about it, I don't have enough gold coins anyway, lend me 1000 gold coins!"
"1000 gold coins?" Ji Xinghan rolled his eyes. "Dream on, I don't have any!"
She only has 5,000 gold coins left. She hasn't bought any fire sand, batteries, or glass rubber. She's broke.
"Cock-a-doodle-doo~" A loud crowing sound rang out, and a big white rooster ran over from not far away, clucking a few times at the puppy, looking very dissatisfied.
A toad followed closely behind, croaking incessantly.
The dog turned its head away and said to the rooster and the toad, "What nonsense! Come and ask if you dare? No, no, not a single gold coin!"
The rooster: "Cluck cluck cluck! Cluck cluck cluck!"
Toad: "Croak, croak, croak!"
Ji Xinghan's eyes lit up. Oh my, another familiar face... no, a cooked chicken and a cooked toad!
Isn't that the rooster that's been chasing after her, bringing her boxes and feed?
Isn't this just a toad that can pull a suitcase?
Ji Xinghan glanced at the rooster and the toad, then suddenly realized, "You're here to buy goods too?"
Have we received the goods so we can help players move boxes around?
The dog said irritably, "Woof woof, yes, none of you have any gold coins, you can't even beg for food, yet you're trying to buy goods like everyone else, how stupid!"
Ji Xinghan's eyes lit up: "They're here to buy goods, right? To move boxes for someone else?"
The rooster tilted its head and looked at Ji Xinghan: "Cluck cluck cluck?"
Toad: "Croak, croak, croak!"
Ji Xinghan's heart skipped a beat. Wasn't this a small animal? He wondered if it belonged to the little girl's family.
Give it a try!
She patted the rooster and said, "Tell me, how many gold coins do you want?"
The rooster got excited: "Cluck cluck cluck!"
Ji Xinghan didn't understand, so he turned to the dog and asked, "How much did it say it wanted?"
The dog was furious: "Woof woof, it wants you to give it to it, but you won't give it to me? It wants 5000 gold coins!"
Ji Xinghan also patted the dog: "Stop messing around, is it 1000?"
She decisively took out 1,000 gold coins and threw them in front of the rooster: "Here, go stock up!"
The rooster flicked its neck, pecked at the coin with its beak, and it disappeared. It crowed happily a few times and ran away.
Ji Xinghan heard a notification sound: [Mission Update - Help Them (1/3)!]
As expected, Ji Xinghan was overjoyed.
She walked up to the toad and casually tossed 1,000 gold coins to it: "Here, take this!"
The toad hopped over, collected the gold coins, and croaked away.
Ji Xinghan heard the notification sound again: [Task Update - Help them (2/3)!]
Ha, I knew it.
She was beaming with joy, never expecting that completing the task would be so easy.
Although she lost 2,000 gold coins, she can get 6,000 gold coins after completing the task. What a bargain!
One more animal is needed!
She turned around, generously took out 1000 gold coins, and put them into the dog's tattered little bowl: "Here, this is for you!"
The dog angrily stomped on the broken bowl, collected the gold coins, and barked, "Woof woof, not enough!"
Huh, there's no notification sound?
Ji Xinghan waited for a long time, but the game notification sound didn't come. She was stunned for a moment. Oh no, the dog is not working!
She stared at the dog, speechless, utterly shocked.
The dog grinned and said, "Woof woof, not enough, give me another 1000!"
Could it be... that this dog is special, and helping it requires more gold coins?
Ji Xinghan hesitated for a moment, then took out another 1,000 gold coins and put them into the broken bowl.
The dog's eyes lit up, and with a wave of its paw, the 1,000 gold coins in front of it vanished. Its mouth gaped open: "Haha, woof woof, not enough, another 1,000!"
Ji Xinghan still hadn't heard the mission update notification.
No, this dog is no good!
It shouldn't be an animal that needs help!
Ji Xinghan's face darkened: "How many do you want?"
The dog's eyes darted around, then it said with utmost sincerity, "Woof woof, another 1000 gold coins will be enough!"
Ji Xinghan asked coldly, "Are you sure?"
The dog nodded repeatedly: "Woof woof, I'm sure!"
Ji Xinghan gritted her teeth. She only had a little over 1,000 gold coins left, but she had already lost 4,000 gold coins. With such a large sunk cost, giving up now would mean losing those 4,000 gold coins.
There's no other way, I'll give it to you!
She gritted her teeth and put the remaining 1,000 gold coins into the broken bowl.
The dog was overjoyed, swung its paw to collect the gold coins, and barked loudly, "Oh yeah, that's enough, bye-bye!"
Ji Xinghan listened intently, but something was wrong; there was no notification sound indicating the mission was successful.
The mission was never completed!
What a loss!
What a loss!
I was tricked by this cunning dog!
Driven by a surge of malice, Ji Xinghan grabbed the dog and snarled, "Give me back my gold coins!"
