is there a way to give an NPC a player-chosen amount of money? (VX ace)

[Schmoopy]

heyo. new to RPG maker and I was wondering if there's a way to give an NPC a player-inputted amount of gold. I know how to give a set amount (100 gold, 50 gold, etc.) but I'd like to make it the player's choice. They'd be rewarded for giving X amount, naturally, but I have no idea how to actually make it possible to give a chosen amount. Thank you in advance <3

The Input Number command allows the player to set a number.
That number is then stored within a Variable.
The Change Gold command allows the use of said variable.

can you teach me how to do that? here's what I did:

but when I did that, the number input won't let my type in a number. it just stays at zero.

what am I missing here?

The player doesn't type the number but uses the arrow key to make the number increase or decrease. Your event command is correct.
