After talking with Scrooge McDuck, you’ll learn that the Forgetting has caused him to lose his business. He needs to get his shop open again so he can provide his services for a price. Scrooge will ask you to do a number of quests for him in order to get his shop up and running again.

Scrooge McDuck is one of the most greedy money-loving Disney characters and he’s had hands in almost every important business in the Valley. Once you help him back on his feet, Scrooge will be able to upgrade your home, construct buildings, and sell you furniture, décor, and outfits for a price. For this reason, he’s very important to your progress in Disney Dreamlight Valley.
