Actually it is in the book when the dwarves mention to Bilbo they only came because of the mark and explain what it says and Bilbo says "there is not mark", Gandalf replies there is one because he put it there.

"...you could steal the gold bit by bit-a matter of a hundred years or so..."
~Smaug
Is that the answer? (And is looking up the answer allowed-I did ).
