Their commission was suspicious.

"We're running out of raw stones," Chen Luo said with a worried expression.
"What? Lolo, you don't have enough raw stones?" When Alicia and the others who had just entered the bar heard Chen Luo's words, they even doubted whether they had heard correctly.
"Didn't you say yesterday that you still had hundreds of thousands of raw stones? I've lost them all today. Did something happen to you?" Alicia rushed over and carefully examined Chen Luo's body. She breathed a sigh of relief only after confirming that Chen Luo was not missing any pieces.
Alicia thought Chen Luo had been beaten up by the Transcendent Ones.
Otherwise, there's no reason to suddenly lose so many raw stones.
"No, nothing unexpected happened, it's just that there was a huge expense," Chen Luo said.
"Expenses? What expenses? Didn't you say yesterday that you had received thousands of commissions and had been working on them all day? How could there be expenses?" Alicia asked, puzzled.
"Yeah, even if you spent one or ten raw stones, you shouldn't have spent all your hundreds of thousands of raw stones. How much do you have left?" Xiao Shi walked over and asked curiously.
"I still have 20 raw stones left, but if nothing unexpected happens, I should be able to spend them all in one afternoon. As for why... well, it's a problem with this stuff." Chen Luo tossed the "All or Nothing" token onto the table.
"What's this."
[Ding! You have a new request!]
"A very dangerous thing..." After finally hearing the voice of the person making the request, Chen Luo began to explain the purpose of the prop.
"Let me make it clear beforehand that I'm not a compulsive gambler; this is called a stable investment. I do cheat, and cheating will definitely win, but I place bets before the game even starts... So after investing in 100 projects, I've spent a full 10 raw stones. I should be able to bet all the raw stones this afternoon," Chen Luo said.
"Aren't you afraid of something going wrong? What if you lose? Or what if this little thing causes trouble? Can you afford to lose everything?" Merlin shook his head repeatedly.
"Heh, if he dares to cause trouble, I'll just tear it down. Then the raw stones I put in will still be mine, right?" Chen Luo sneered.
Chen Luo dared to invest 100,000 Primal Stones because he had the power to make wishes. As long as he was willing to spend the remaining 10,000 Primal Stones, he could dismantle this three-star item even without the right tools!
He will naturally spit out what he swallowed!
“Besides, I can’t predict the future before the betting starts, but I can see it after it begins. I’m certain that every project will be profitable. If it isn’t, then it’s not my problem, it’s the world’s problem,” Chen Luo said.
If I can't win even after cheating, then there must be something wrong!
Moreover, the world's consciousness wouldn't stoop to such a trivial matter as tricking Chen Luo.
After all, if Chen Luo loses, the world consciousness will gain nothing. The raw stone will end up in the belly of this chip of fate, so Chen Luo has no vested interest in the world.
If Chen Luo wins, that's fine; everyone can get along harmoniously. But if Chen Luo loses, he'll dismantle the treasure and take back his bet.
"So what does this story tell us?" Chen Luo asked the crowd.
"Don't gamble with others before you're sure you can win?" Xiao Shi said.
"No."
"Nine out of ten gambling games are scams," Merlin asked.
"No, you're a liar, all you do is lie."
"That constitutes a personal attack..."
“I understand. It means that cheating isn’t considered cheating if you’re not caught. That’s what Tetu said.” Alicia held up one finger.
"No, what I'm trying to say is, never gamble with someone who has the ability to overturn the table," Chen Luo said, shaking his head.
"If you lose, you can only force yourself to break even, but if you win, then you'll have to see if you can force yourself to not die."
"...This prop sounds so pitiful."
"On the contrary, Chen Luo is now acting like a bully."
"Fate is a tyrant!"
"Hiss, this is terrifying!"
"That's enough, you guys. I'm telling you this so you can contribute some raw stones to me, not so you can make sarcastic remarks," Chen Luo complained.
"I do have a request, but I don't know if you'd accept it, Lolo." Alicia's eyes lit up.
“I have one too.” Memory Mébius narrowed his eyes.
"Sigh, you all have one, so I want one too..."
"Never mind, forget I said anything. Let's have lunch." Seeing the increasingly dangerous looks in everyone's eyes, Chen Luo decisively chose to back down.
Chen Luo could roughly guess what kind of commission Alicia and Mebius planned to give him.
But is this a topic that can be discussed in a public area like a bar?
There was also a little boy named Xiaoshi next to him.
"Tch, boring."
“…Merlin, you’re not getting lunch. Go stand over there as punishment,” Chen Luo said coldly.
The others are one thing, they all have ulterior motives towards Chen Luo, but Merlin is different, Merlin truly has ulterior motives.
Was the only one watching from the sidelines the one who "provoked" me?
"Hey, why should I? I'm not like those fireworks chasing squads. I came to you specifically to make you a doll for your birthday, that's why I asked for the memory bread." Merlin blinked and said, looking very aggrieved.
Xiao Shi and Alicia formed a fireworks-hunting team and began searching for fireworks everywhere. They didn't have time to come back and rest until noon.
Although they said they were looking for fireworks, they were actually just sightseeing.
Small groups like these, using the guise of catching fireworks for publicly funded travel, are common in bars.
Merlin is different; Merlin is here to freeload a meal.
"...Don't use that tone. Using that tone makes me think you're Hanabi's," Chen Luo said disdainfully.
So, should we accept the commission?
[Ding! You have a new request!]
"...Here you go." Chen Luo handed over a memory bread.
Despite the playful banter, we still need to make money from the raw stones.
Chen Luo almost went bankrupt trying to earn that Destiny Coin.
Of course, in less than a day, Chen Luo will be able to get all his investment back and make a fortune of hundreds of thousands of Destiny Coins!
Of course, this does not mean that the value of hundreds of thousands of Destiny Coins is the same as the value of the raw stones Chen Luo invested.
As is well known, in casinos, goods are discounted when used as payment.
"Although you say you can't, your actions speak louder than words," Merlin said as he took the memory bread and ate it.
"Please don't use such easily misunderstood words, okay? It makes me want to kick your ass hard with Aunt Susan's size 56 Dr. Martens boots!"
"Oh my god, don't talk to me in that damn translator's tone!"
"Alright, you two stop arguing. Lolo, sit down and get ready for lunch. Merlin, you stand and eat your lunch," Alicia stepped forward and spoke up fairly.
"...Do you want to listen to what you're saying?"
“Aili is right, the Judah Oath, I’m hungry,” Chen Luo shouted toward the bar’s kitchen.
"understood."
"Kurumi, why don't you sit down and have a meal? By the time you finish eating, Kyubey should have killed enough. You can go beat up more people after you finish eating," Chen Luo said to Tokisaki Kurumi.
"Okay. Oh, and I'll have one of those memory breads too. We only met yesterday, but you've been a great help to me. Since it's your birthday, I should give you a plush toy as well." Tokisaki Kurumi nodded.
[Ding! You have a new request!]
“Okay. By the way, the group network offers a variety of free doll sewing materials. Of course, this is only for today,” Chen Luo said.
As for Su Yuan wasting money on materials... it's not a big deal, since Chen Luo gave her the money anyway.
"I'll have a memory bread too."
"Give me one too."
"I think I can make it myself, but never mind, I'll just have one."
[Ding! You have a new request!] ×n
While it's possible to make your own dolls, then all those dolls will end up on the counter behind the bar.
If anyone does something bad, they'll be publicly executed.
[If nothing unexpected happens, the bar is about to be embroiled in controversy.]
"Roll it up, you can roll it up!"
"Sigh, looks like I won't have time to catch fireworks this afternoon. Hmm, what kind of plush toy should I give her?" Alicia muttered to herself as she ate her memory bread.
"Why don't you just give your fairy Ellie armed doll to Chen Luo?" Xiao Shi said casually.
"Huh?!!" Alicia's eyes lit up.
That's right.
You could dress yourself up and present yourself as a gift!
Xiao Shi is simply a genius!
Well, it's also possible that Xiao Shi didn't know that the fairy Ellie armed doll was actually part of Ellie's desire.
"Um... although we could use light cones instead of dolls to display them in the showcase behind the bar, but... let's be mindful of appearances. We still need the dolls, other gifts are fine," Chen Luo whispered to Alicia.
This was also the idea that Chen Luogang had just had.
Chen Luo initially just wanted a regular doll to hold, but after looking around, he felt that everyone's intentions weren't entirely pure.
So... how about we just show a group photo?
After all, photos can be photoshopped.
"Hmm... So you really have to make a doll? Let me think about what kind to make." Alicia started racking her brains again.
"Hmm?" Chen Luo suddenly looked up.
"Um... Merlin, stand up a bit, step back a little, yes, that spot, and then stretch your hand forward," Chen Luo instructed Merlin.
Although Merlin didn't understand why, he did as instructed.
A crack suddenly appeared in the bar's ceiling, and a figure fell down, only to be caught by Merlin.
Congratulations on winning everything!
As the figure fell, Chen Luo heard the clattering sound of gold coins falling like someone winning a lottery.
[Destiny Coins +6000]
"Welcome back, Sand Gold. How are you feeling?" Chen Luo didn't pay attention to the Paradise Coin right away, but asked Sand Gold, who had already been put down by Merlin.
"It feels...not bad."
"Alright, alright, stop pretending. Your smile is harder to suppress than an AK right now," Chen Luo complained.
Anyone in the bar could tell that Sand Gold was in a good mood.
It's as if the people from the Interstellar Peace Corporation were deliberately hit with a hammer by Amber King as soon as they stepped out of the door, and they still didn't die.
“Well, that’s wonderful! Great Star God of Wishes, please accept my gratitude.” Sand Gold gave Chen Luo an exaggerated bow.
"So what was the result?" Chen Luo asked.
"Through a few tricks, coupled with the help of the great power of desire, and by gathering the prayers of the entire Evikin people, and through some small-scale maneuvering... the final result was that, for the survival of the Evikin people, the Katika people, who dared to challenge the authority of the Interstellar Peace Corporation, were annihilated under the company's gunfire. My people could only bid farewell to the Katika people with tears in their eyes, and then, with the protection of a Joyful Envoy from the Evikin people, they became independent from the Tsigania Chiefdom and protected their land," Sand Gold said.
"..."
It's difficult to determine how many problems exist in Chen Luo's statement regarding placer gold.
In any case, the bloodthirsty Katika who has been relentlessly hunting down the Evikinians would certainly not be willing to challenge the Interstellar Peace Corporation for the sake of the Evikinians.
There was no Envoy of Pleasure among the Evgeny.
It doesn't exist now, and it certainly didn't exist in the past.
"You've become the Envoy of Pleasure?" Merlin couldn't help but ask.
“Not me, but an anonymous Evikinian. Of course, it’s fake, but… I believed the great Star God of Joy wouldn’t mind watching me risk my life for my people’s survival. And it turns out I was right.” Sand Gold shrugged.
In Kakawasha's era, there were no Destiny of Wishes, and therefore no Destiny Messengers. So, which messenger would be the best to impersonate?
Of course, it's the Envoy of Pleasure!
Because people know that whatever the God of Joy does is justified.
However, people at the time were unaware of the power of wishes, so gold dust disguised the power of wishes as the power of pleasure.
