Messing with Mark

Gulliver sent me a tapestry in the mail today from Peru. And Molly approached me, wanting to play a game of hide-and-seek. Let’s do this!

Molly: Let's play a game right now!She gave me ten minutes to find her, Nan, and Frank. Nan was the first one I found, hiding behind Big Top’s house.

Nan: Hey! How did you know where I was?!Frank and Molly were both hiding behind trees, and I found everyone with about five minutes remaining. Molly rewarded me with a scoreboard. I would have used it right then and there if I could’ve. Jeff 1, Team Molly 0.

Molly: And we have a prize for the winner! Here. Please accept a scoreboard from us!Kidd asked me for some fruit, and I gave him a perfect cherry. He thanked me and gave me a tangerine chair. I wonder if he tried eating it and only asked me for fruit because he couldn’t eat the chair. Hmmm…

Kidd: You broadened my fruit spectrum, dearie! So please take my tangerine chair.Gala asked me for some furniture, and I gave her the tapestry from Gulliver. She seemed to like it, and she gave me a ranch dresser in return. I would’ve preferred ranch dressing, but I’ll take it.

Gala: Oh, a tapestry! Nice!Later on, I gave away a graceful painting to Uroosa from Hyrule.

Visiting Uroosa in Hyrule.I also had a couple of items to deliver to Mark, so I headed to his town Topiary. I saw one of Santa’s reindeer while I was there, so I said hello to him. He said his name was Erik, but I didn’t buy that for a second. He looks like a real Dancer or Prancer to me. He must be in the witness protection program.

Erik: Whoa! Someone I don't know!After speaking with him, I dashed over to Re-Tail. I checked the turnip prices, and Reese was paying 188 bells apiece for them! That’s pretty good, so I sold all my turnips for a cool 206,800 bells.

Reese: Well then...I could probably part with 206,800 bells for all of it, if that sounds OK with you?I believe Mark hadn’t played for the day yet, so I played a little joke on him. I told him I saw a new villager plot, and it belonged to Jambette!

Jeff: Oh, a plot...Jambette!!He was not happy, and I think I ruined his day. 😀 Then I told him I was just kidding. However, he didn’t see the humor in it. 😛

Mark: Not funny!  Jeff: LOL.As soon as I returned to Forest, Phineas was right outside of the train station waiting for me!

Phineas standing outside the train station.He gave me the Pro Turnip Trader badge, which is silver.

I got the Pro Turnip Trader badge! I'm a pro at predicting the stalk market!Once I get the gold badge, I’ll probably retire from the turnip trade. But I’m still a long way away from that point. For now, I put my earnings into my bank account and my balance topped 15 million bells.

Your current balance is 15,140,000 bells.Also, I want to point out that the Cancer table is now available in America. It looks like we’re finally going to get the zodiac set too like Japan and Europe already have been.

Phyllis: OK, all right. Here's the Cancer table!The cancer table.
