People are in the heavens, wealth can rival a country

Chapter 79 I must remind you that I am the employer

Under the premise of Mithril as a commission, the dwarves of Eredron almost wanted to mobilize. Even because of the example of Sarin, those female dwarves couldn't help but mention the hammer and battle axe.

It is obviously impossible for Tang Sen to take away all the dwarves of Eredron. Although the average combat effectiveness of dwarves is very strong, after they reach adulthood at the age of three or forty, their prime of life will last until the end of their lifespan, and then they will suddenly age. Finally turned to stone.

But many dwarves have no combat experience at all. They have spent their entire lives blacksmithing in caves.

In the end, Townsend only selected 23 dwarves with the strongest physique and combat experience.

Of course, apart from Sha Lin, none of the female dwarves met the standard required by Tang Sen——

In fact, the female dwarves were not so difficult to distinguish, their beards were not as thick as the male dwarves, and their strength was far inferior. Sharin was purely a different kind among the female dwarves.

At this time, including Shalin, a total of 24 dwarves lined up neatly in front of Tang Sen, all wearing the best armor and weapons they could find. commendable.

These are Tang Sen's original team in this world.

"Traveler, can you tell us your destination now?" a black-bearded dwarf shouted.

"Don't worry, Cindy, son of Cinna."

Not surprisingly, Tang Sen can always remember the names of everyone who is valuable to him. In fact, the naming habits in Middle-earth are the same as those in medieval Europe. Most people only have first names, not surnames.

Names are easy to repeat, so when introducing themselves, people often add their father's name to assume the function of the surname. If the ancestor has a prominent position or dazzling achievements, people don't mind adding the ancestor's name.

For example, Aragorn, when introducing it to the outside world, can say Aragorn, the son of Arathorn, and the descendant of Isildur, so that others will know that this person is the royal family of Gondor.

Of course, if the person has dazzling achievements, he can also use a nickname as his surname, such as Thorin Oakenshield.

When he was fighting against the Orc leader Pale Ok Azog, he used an oak as a shield to defeat Azog when the shield was knocked into the air. This deed gave him the nickname of Oak Shield. became his unique surname.

Tang Sen smiled and said to the dwarf named Cindy: "We need to cross Tower Hill, pass Shire, repair in Bree, and then follow the Eastern Avenue all the way to the Misty Mountains."

"It's not a safe road," Cindy shouted. "Before Bree, it's okay. The road after that is full of Orcs, Wargs, and Trolls, especially the Misty Mountains, which belong to Orcs. Lair, Traveler, what are you doing in the Misty Mountains?"

"Do what a traveler should do, Cindy." Tang Sen said, "The Misty Mountains are not the end of the journey. We need to cross the Misty Mountains, pass through the Mirk Forest, and finally arrive at the Iron Hills."

"Dark dense forest?!" Sha Lin suddenly cheered up: "Then we will pass through the lonely mountain?"

The dwarves were also disturbed, and the place name Lonely Mountain obviously disturbed their minds.

"It's too dangerous there!" A dwarf shouted: "If we want to go to the Iron Hills, we can detour through the Gray Mountains."

"That's right, even if you go around the brown field, it's better than going through the lonely mountain!"

Tang Sen didn't speak, but just stared at the dwarves blankly, until they finally shut up, and then said slowly: "I thought that all those present were the bravest warriors of Eredron, but I didn't expect that, just A place name will make you panic, so how can I hire you with confidence?"

This phrase succeeded in provoking the dwarves, who cried out: "The dwarves fear nothing! But the Lonely Mountain—"

"I must remind you that I am the employer." Tang Sen directly interrupted their yelling and said, "Where to go, how to go, the route is up to me."

"If anyone has a problem with that, it's too late to leave now."

The dwarves hesitated immediately. These were people who did not choose to follow Thorin Oakenshield, that is, the conservatives who would rather rebuild their homeland in Eredron. Now Tang Sen told them that this journey would still go through an isolated journey. Mountain, that haunting dream, yet frightening place.

However, no dwarf is willing to leave, and the commission is Mithril!
The only one who seemed happy was Sharin. Her eyes lit up and she almost jumped up excitedly.

"Traveler, we are willing to fight for you, whether it is facing Orc cavalry or trolls." A dwarf stepped forward and said in a deep voice: "However, you must ensure that in front of us, no A dragon will appear."

"Oh, Soli, son of Pomfort." Tang Sen turned his head and looked at him, "The journey is always unknown, and I can never guarantee what we will meet."

"The only thing I can guarantee is—"

He stretched out his hands, and a lot of mithril coins emerged from his hands.

"I will not reduce the commission of any of you. If someone dies in battle, I will pay three times the commission and give it to his family."

Seeing the light from Mithril, the breath of the dwarves became heavy.

"So, Cindy, Soli, Sharda, Sarin"

Tang Sen called out the names of the 24 dwarves one by one: "Can you assure me that even if a dragon appears in front of you, you still have the courage to die?"

Shalin was the first to hit his chest with the hammer, and roared: "My hammer is always at your disposal, Tang Sen, before I fall, even a dragon will never be able to hurt you!"

Then a young dwarf also hammered his chest and shouted: "Before I fall, even a dragon will never be able to harm Sharin. Of course, there is also a traveler."

What an impure statement.

But the dwarves obviously accepted this trick, and the atmosphere was quickly aroused. They looked at each other, then at Mithril, and hammered their chests to express their opinions.

He laughed: "It seems that we have reached a consensus."

"I will appoint Sharin as the captain of the guard team, do you have any opinions?"

"You are the employer, you have the final say." An older dwarf said.

But the young dwarves seemed excited, their eyes turned to Shalin's body from time to time, shouting: "Sharin deserves it, if anyone has any objections, fight with me first!"

It seems that there is no need to worry that Sharin can't manage this group of dwarves, especially the young dwarves.

Tang Sen nodded with satisfaction: "Very well, let's go."

"First we must go to Mythrond."

"Buy dry food, supplies, and horses for the journey."
