Chapter 266 Throwing Coins
The golden eagle's sharp gaze instantly locked onto the uninvited guest.

Su Zhining held her breath, just when she thought victory was in her grasp—

A golden bolt of lightning struck down from the sky!

"Crack!"

The mechanical lemming disintegrated instantly under the eagle's claws, scattering intricate gears and circuit boards everywhere.

The golden eagle picked up the still twitching mechanical wreckage, tilted its head to examine it for a moment, then suddenly shook its head in disgust and threw this piece of "high-tech junk" off the cliff.

The viewers in the live chat were completely bewildered by this sudden turn of events.

[Hilarious! Thousands of dollars destroyed in a second]

[Golden Eagle: This is it? It's not even as good as a real mouse]

[Ms. Su, why is this toy disposable? It's a real luxury item.]

Imported toys are still not as good as domestic ones.

"How, how is it possible?!"

Su Zhining suddenly stood up, her expensive sunglasses slipping down to the tip of her nose. "Why are they so flimsy?"

Her words stopped abruptly.

The golden eagle was looking down at her from its high perch, its sharp eyes filled with mockery.

What's even more outrageous is that it leisurely preened its feathers, as if it had just swatted an annoying mosquito.

The cold wind swirled the mechanical lemming parts as they tumbled down the cliff edge, making a clanging sound, as if mocking Su Zhining's naiveté.

The photographer was trying so hard to suppress his laughter that his lens was shaking, but he managed to capture the golden eagle's final look of utter disdain—"Is this all you've got? You think you can tempt me?"

Su Zhining squatted in the snow in a fit of rage, frantically rummaging through her luxury backpack.

"I don't want canned meat, I don't want mechanical mice—what does this damn bird even want?!"

She irritably pulled out a bunch of cosmetics and energy bars, and finally pulled out a stack of brand-new US dollars from a hidden compartment—something she had casually slipped into her pocket when she went rock climbing in Rocky Mountain National Park and had forgotten to take out.

"Huh, why is there some spare change in my bag?"

Su Zhining casually waved the banknotes in front of the camera, "It's only a few thousand dollars left over from my last purchase at Rocky Mountain National Park in the US."

Barrage:? ? ?
Is this what you call pocket money? Is this the Versailles of the rich?

What's the deal with bringing cash while rock climbing?

[As expected of a young lady of high birth, she can easily find thousands of dollars in her bag.]

Su Zhining was showing off her allowance in an attempt to save face when, unexpectedly, a gust of wind howled past—

"Wow!"

A few banknotes in Su Zhining's hand were not held firmly and were instantly swept into the air, fluttering like gold foil in the sunlight.

"Hey, my money!!"

Su Zhining subconsciously reached out to grab it, then immediately withdrew her hand, casually tossing her hair, "Never mind, it's just a few bills."

But the next second—

"Whoosh!"

A black afterimage shot into the sky!

The golden eagle streaked through the air with astonishing speed, its sharp talons precisely clamping down on each fluttering dollar bill.

$20, $50, $100... It can even adjust its posture in mid-air and catch banknotes that are about to float away with its beak.

Netizens were stunned to see the golden eagle frantically picking up money.

[Golden Eagle: My money just fell from the sky!]

[Case solved! The "gold" in "golden eagle" actually refers to the "gold" in "US dollar" (doge)]

[Did this golden eagle not drink the Meng Po soup (a legendary soup for forgetting past lives) and still retain some consciousness from its past life as a human? It's actually stealing US dollars!]

Su Zhining stared in disbelief at the scene; she had never seen such a greedy animal before!
Suddenly, a brilliant idea struck her. Su Zhining gritted her teeth, pulled out a wad of banknotes from her bag, and scattered them like petals as she walked towards the meeting point: "Come on! Follow me and you'll get money!"

Sure enough, the golden eagle eagerly followed, catching each card Su Zhining tossed into the air with perfect accuracy, and flew little by little with her towards the meeting point.

But whenever Su Zhining deliberately threw money in front of it—

"Snapped."

The banknotes fell on the snow, but the golden eagle arrogantly turned its head away, flapped its wings, and flew back into the air.

The viewers in the live stream were laughing hysterically.

[So catching coins in mid-air is what makes you look prestigious, right?]

This golden eagle is even more concerned about its image than Lu Jinyu and Jia Yao.

[A New Employment Idea for Modern Raptors: Aerial Cashier.]

[Golden Eagle: I have to earn this money standing up today!]

When the man and the eagle finally arrived at the meeting point, Xu Ying was squatting on the ground feeding Ili pikas carrots.

She looked up and saw the golden eagle slowly descending, clutching a wad of US dollars in its talons. Startled, she dropped her carrot: "Brother Eagle, where have you been making your fortune lately? Can you take me with you?"

When she was little, her elders told her that chicken feet could bring good fortune, but she didn't believe them. Now she truly believes it.

Su Zhining walked over with a dark face: "It's fleecing me!"

The golden eagle proudly shook its feathers, neatly arranged the banknotes at Xu Ying's feet, and then looked proudly at the camera.

[This eagle only earns clean money and refuses charity.]

Xu Ying watched the replay of Su Zhining's live broadcast on the program's tablet and laughed until her stomach hurt.

The golden eagle was indeed a master of deception, quietly making a fortune and accumulating a large retirement fund through a series of maneuvers.

On the snow, a golden eagle proudly counts its "earnings," neatly stacking US dollar bills on the ground with its beak.

Just then, a yellowish-brown shadow crept silently along the snow.

The Tibetan fox squinted its triangular eyes, tucked its paws into its chest, and its belly was almost touching the ground, looking just like a notorious thief who steals safes in a movie.

Its tail tip trembled slightly, and it paused for three seconds every half meter it moved forward, demonstrating acting skills that far surpass those of some popular celebrities.

Has Director Fox transformed into a secret agent?

I'm all too familiar with that sleazy gait.

[Golden Eagle: Do you think I'm blind?]

Finally, the Tibetan fox's paw touched the green banknote on the very edge—

"Snapped!"

Golden wings whistled through the air, striking the fox's paws precisely.

The Tibetan fox roared and leaped three feet high, scattering banknotes like startled butterflies.

The golden eagle slowly and methodically rearranged the banknotes, and even pecked at the spot the Tibetan fox had just touched, as if disinfecting it.

The program's cameraman also gave Director Fox a close-up shot.

The Tibetan fox crouched three meters away, its fur puffed up like a dandelion, its front paws dangling in the air, its face screaming:

[It's just a touch! You're so stingy!]
Xu Ying suppressed her laughter so hard she almost injured herself: "Director Hu, isn't this an attempt to steal someone else's work?"

The Tibetan fox blew on its whiskers: [Unsuccessful.]
Xu Ying suppressed a laugh. She first took out a specially made blindfold and covered the golden eagle's eyes before introducing the golden eagle to the netizens.

"The golden eagle is a large bird of prey, named for the golden feathers that surround the back of its neck, which resemble a cape."

"It is very fast, capable of diving at 300 kilometers per hour, which is faster than high-speed rail."

"Their wingspan is two meters wide, but they weigh only five kilograms, which is lighter than some kittens."

As Xu Ying fastened the blindfold to the golden eagle, she asked viewers in front of the camera, "Do you know why I put a blindfold on the golden eagle?"
