Without any surprises, the wealthy little Anne also used the same way to buy out all the contestants in the second and third horse races, and spent a total of 100,000 G to buy a full 1,188 horse racing tickets, which is almost the total number of purchases by the residents of the entire Ore Town!

And then......

After the joyful and tense race, she didn't count the horse racing tickets at all, but directly piled up the 1,188 horse racing tickets, which weighed about several pounds, directly in front of the counter of Mayor Thomas, who had a black face and didn't know what to say, and successfully settled and exchanged a full 3,663 horse racing medals from the other party's hand.

That horrible amount, but it's a whole small box, and it's a full pile?

"Hahahaha!!"

Hahaha?? (??? *)

"You guys are really stupid, look at it, people don't need to study one by one like you, people just buy them all, and now you can have so many spicy winning medals~!"

?*。? (ˊ▽ˋ*)?? *。

And so, in front of almost all the inhabitants of Ore Town, Anne stepped on the large box full of medals, and shouted at the people who were carrying or holding a pitiful number of medals waiting to be exchanged.

（…… ）

(●￣(?) ￣●)

‘！！ ’

'Dart! How about we do her next time we race horses in the fall? You see, we only won a few dozen, but she won a whole box, and it was full, so there were at least three or four thousand, right? ’

'That's not all! Dirk, I just asked Thomas, that's a total of 3,663 medals!! ’

'Goddess, how can there be so many?' ’

But there are so many! ’

'You must be able to exchange a lot of things, right?' ’

'Of course! Whether it's true jade, fruit of strength, skin care products, jewelry, or matsutake mushrooms, which are known as the king of deliciousness, you can easily exchange them! ’

'Pine, matsutake? How many can you get that?! ’

'I count...... Not...... She received a total of 3,663 medals, and if she were to change all of them, it would be 366 high-grade matsutake mushrooms!! ’

‘！！ ’

"Oh my God! Three hundred and sixty-six fine matsutake mushrooms? So much, even if you don't use it to cook and ship it directly, it's almost 200,000 G, right?! ”

"Isn't it?"

"Tsk! That's the case alone, she has already returned to her original capital, and she can still make tens of thousands of dollars? ”

"Humph! Dik, matsutake mushrooms can be made into the most delicious dishes, but it would be stupid to ship them, and if you give it to me, my shop's business will be booming for at least a whole year! ”

'It's a pity we don't have that much budget, or ......'

'Alas......'

Why don't we get some money together and buy all the tickets like she did?' ’

'Great idea! ’

On the side, Uncle Dart of the bar and Dick, the owner of the vineyard, saw it, and they gathered there shouting and discussing, obviously a little jealous that a certain little girl who was chattering could win so many medals. However, their eyes were red, and they had no choice but to sigh with jealousy while discussing.

It's also something that can't be helped, after all, whether it's their vineyard or the bar? It's a small business, and you can't make a lot of money and have so much spare money to participate in horse races as easily as a little girl.

“……”

"That...... Annie? Can you buy me a nice brooch? Eighteen medals can be exchanged, can I owe you first? I'll pay you back with another gift? Or how about paying you back in the fall? ”

"I swear I'll pay it back, in the name of the goddess?"

"You don't know, I've been wanting a brooch for a long time, but I lost all three today? I didn't hit any of them, and I wasted thousands of G of pocket money in vain......"

Then? Unlike the other Ore Town residents who only point fingers and envy? Lin, who has a good relationship with Anne, stepped forward directly? And shyly leaned in front of Anne and pleaded.

A brooch is only eighteen medals, originally she thought she would definitely be able to exchange it? But...... Maybe the god of fate didn't remember to favor her? So, she lost all three times in a row, so much so that now she doesn't even have a medal in her hand?

So? No way? Seeing that this little guy in front of him actually made a lot of spicy money all of a sudden? And believing that the other party will definitely not be able to change, she thought about it for a long time before making up her mind, and was the first to come up.

"It's so pitiful, I haven't earned a medal?"

(lll￢ω￢)

"Hmm......"

(ー`′ー)

"Oh well! But you don't have to owe it, in the next three days, as long as you remember to make a big meal every morning when you go to the hot springs, they will give it to you for free! ”

ヾ(⌒?⌒*)o?

As she spoke, Anne directly grabbed the eighteen medals, generously reached out and handed them to the other party.

For the rest of the day, Uncle Gotts would not be able to fix her house in a short time, so Anne still had to get up early every day to go to the hot springs to play with Perbley and Lynn, so she would be glad if someone could prepare a delicious breakfast for her and bring it to her!

Anyway, in Anne's opinion, exchanging three delicious meals for eighteen medals is also a very cost-effective one, and she doesn't lose at all.

“！！”

"Three-point meal? Good! Then it's a word!! ”

Hearing what the other party said, and then calculating it, Lin, who felt that she was not at a loss, her eyes lit up, and after accepting it directly, she snatched the medal in the other party's hand, and then ran towards Mayor Thomas's counter for the first time, obviously preparing to exchange the brooch she had admired for a long time.

“！！”

"Annie! I'm going to change my moisturizer and mask, but I'm only 7 medals away, and if you're willing to give me 7 medals, I can make you a hot spring egg every day for the next week! ”

"How?!"

At this time, seeing that Lynn was really able to easily get the medal from Anne, Poebley was also anxious.

Although she was lucky enough to win three games in a row, the medals still only added up to seventy, which was still seven shorts...... If she changes her mask, it won't be enough to change the moisturizer, and vice versa! Therefore, Pobley, who felt that he also had a chance, also said his quid pro quo after coming over.

"A week, that's seven ......"

(°ー°〃)

Today is the eighteenth, and it will take twelve days before Uncle Gotz finishes renovating the house, so Anne thinks that it seems that it is good to go to the hot spring by herself and eat hot spring eggs for seven days?

Because she had now discovered that the eggs boiled in that hot spring were indeed delicious, especially those from the Pembleys' chicken farm!

It's a pity that their eggs still have to be shipped in order to maintain the reputation of some specialties of Ore Town, so it is difficult for her to buy them even if she wants to, especially after the other party's brother is very dissatisfied with her, knowing that her ranch obviously has a chicken farm but refuses to raise chickens?

"That's fine! Here! I'll give you seven!! ”

? (*?????)????

After thinking about it, Anne, who felt that she would not suffer a loss and that the other party's conditions could effectively attract her, once again graciously grabbed the seven medals and stuffed them into the other party's arms.

‘！！ ’

'Look! She's also changed! ’

'Ahh ’

'Jeff, are you going to change?' ’

'But I don't know what she likes......

'This ......'

'I'll go!' ’

'Annie! I'm going to buy sunscreen, and I'm two medals away, so I'll trade two bunches of grapes from my family for you! ’

'And me!' ’

'I need a diamond, it's just one missing, Anne, can you lend me first?' ’

'Me too!' I want a necklace, eighteen missing, Annie! I have a bucket of premium cheese, would you like to exchange it with me?! ’

'And I'......'

'Me too!' ’

'Hey! ’

'Oops! Don't squeeze it, come and ...... one by one'

'Don't push~! ’

'Little one, I'm your Uncle Zack...... Fast! Sell me a little medal, I have an urgent need, really urgent, I'll pay for it!! ’

Soon, Karen from the Grocery Store, Mary from the Library, Ellie from Oretown Hospital, and a few other people who had a good relationship with Anne all swarmed around Anne, saying that they didn't have enough medals and needed a little support from a little girl who had won a lot of them.

“！！”

!？ (?''??)?

"Hey! Don't squeeze it, be careful of people beating you! ”

Q(`⌒′Q)

"You guys ......"

=???? (??? *)

"No people's medals are borrowed or sold! But...... If you have something delicious and fun, people still don't mind exchanging it with you! ”

(???? -)?

After finally maintaining order, Anne offered her quid pro quo in front of all the inhabitants of Ore Town who wanted to turn to her for help.

Finally......

Ten minutes later, Anne exchanged the medals for all sorts of delicious or fun things, or promises, from the friends in Ore Town present, and used the remaining medals to exchange the remaining medals from the black-faced Mayor Thomas for a 'True Jade' that I don't know what it does, a beautiful little dress, a fruit of power that I don't think will have any special use for her except for being delicious, and a lot of matsutake mushrooms that are said to be delicious dishes!

Then, the large box of medals that she had just stepped on to taunt the residents of Ore Town was basically redeemed.

However, the beautiful little dress that Anne exchanged was not for herself, but casually given to the granddaughter of the bad old man's family, May! Because the other party's height is the same as Anne's, and he is dressed just right?

Of course, more importantly:

Because the horses of Madrigal Farm lost the race, the bad old man of Muqi didn't have any medals to redeem for gifts, so the other party's granddaughter Mei kept crying with a little face, looking pitiful? Then, in view of the fact that the other party had given her a foal from her family's ranch, Anne threw the dress with the beautiful gift wrapping directly into the other party's hand, even if it was two clear.

“……”

When it was ten years of sunset in the afternoon, when everyone had redeemed their favorite prizes and left, and when only he and a certain proud little girl Anne were left on the scene, Mayor Thomas walked up to the little girl with his face blackened and persuaded:

"Anne ......"

"You know what?"

"I still think it's bad for you to do that, because you've broken the rules of our ore town for decades...... No one has ever done it like you, and I don't know if you're good at doing it, but I hope you don't do it next time......"

Yes, Mayor Thomas has always felt that Anne was not doing that well, because it had lost the meaning of the game and the spirit of athleticism, and it had left a very bad example in their otherwise peaceful ore town!

He heard it just now, Dick and Dart are already conspiring, next time, they will be like the little girl in front of them, Annie, to scrape together a huge amount of more than 100,000 G, and then buy all the horse racing tickets, and then they can make a lot of money like this little girl, or can they exchange it for what they want?

That kind of thing is bad, very bad......

In Mayor Thomas's view, it will breed more desires in the hearts of the residents of Ore Town, and have an irreversible impact on the human environment here in the town! In the future, what kind of impact and consequences it will have on their town, he doesn't dare to imagine now!

"But why?"

(???.???)????

"Grandpa Thomas, you just saw it, and everyone seems to be very happy! Isn't this competition held in Ore Town just to make everyone happy? Also, as you may have noticed, everyone seems to be starting to like people, and now they are one of the most popular people in Ore Town! ”

(???? -)?

Anne didn't think there was anything wrong with that, because she didn't cheat from beginning to end, and she didn't break the rules at all, and she also exchanged medals for a lot of people, sent them a lot of happiness, and they also exchanged a lot of delicious or strange things for her, she also felt very satisfied, this kind of hello, me, everyone's good, what's wrong?!

（…… ）

(●￣(?) ￣●)

"You ......"

"Well, it seems that what you said also has some point......"

After thinking about it for a while, I thought about it again, in addition to feeling that the little guy in front of me really didn't break the rules, and it did bring happiness to many people, the only bad thing was that he spent money indiscriminately and was not very easy to communicate, Thomas, who really couldn't find more faults, had to give up preaching to Annie.

"Anyway!"

"Annie, if you could, I would like you to take care of that ranch a little better? You know, we've all been looking forward to you growing our ore town specialty, those delicious hot spring crops? ”

"Although you're doing well now......"

"Alright! Forget it, I shouldn't have asked for more from you, now it's getting dark, you better hurry up and go home! ”

As he spoke, he looked at the other party's well-behaved (careless) and cute appearance, and felt that he seemed to be a little harsh, so Mayor Thomas simply stopped and didn't say more, and directly persuaded the other party to go back early and pay attention to safety, and then slowly left the Rose Square in Ore Town, which had been noisy all day with his hands behind his back.

"Weird!"

(￢д￢。 )

"Forget it! Ignore him! Tibbs, we've been here for a day, hurry up, let's go back too! ”

?? (′?｀?)???

Anne, who had a full harvest, waited until the mayor of Thomas had left the racecourse and left the Rose Square, and then she turned and went straight south, humming an unknown song and taking her dog-legged Tiebs, and just like that, one man and one dog walked towards her farm.

???

At this time, the red sun gradually set in the west, slowly sinking under the clouds and mountains, and the full and happy day will soon come to an end.

In Ore Town, where the hustle and bustle had calmed down, most of the residents had returned to their homes after a day of excitement, ready to serve their supper or continue their busy day.

And under the golden sun, on the straight and clean stone roads of Ore Town, a little girl and her little milk dog were strolling in the afterglow, their figures stretched by the sunset sun......
