I'm In Middle-Earth: Going To Slay A Dragon At The Start

Chapter 51 Friends of Women – Alfred (Add 1, add more for the evaluation ticket!)

Bud is really in a good mood today, because he feels that his luck has never been better than it is now.

This time out, he not only harvested a full catch, but also encountered a group of dwarves.

Of course, the dwarves were not the point. The point was that they entrusted him to send them to the other side, and the reward was a bag of gold coins.

That’s a generation of gold coins, what can you do with so much money?

It should be enough to help him keep the poor residents of Long Lake through this icy season.

He was happy in his heart, but thinking about the current situation of the townspeople in Changhu Town, Bud couldn’t help sighing again.

Today’s Changhu Town is not as developed as it used to be.

Since many years ago, the dwarves have attracted the demon dragon Smaug, and the river valley town has been destroyed by the demon dragon. As a result, the economy of Longhu Town has become worse year by year, and some have been slumped.

Many people have left this dangerous place, no one will buy fish here again, and few people here will venture further afield to trade.

So, the economy here starts to decline, it becomes rotten.

And back to the beginning, what did Changhu Town look like?

There are ten thousand buildings, wharfs stand in front of the houses, and there are countless boats coming and going. How can there be a depression like now?

Every time Bud thinks of this, he feels a little heartache.

The residents of Long Lake Town should not have had such a hard time. The blame for all this was on the dragon Smaug, or rather, the countless treasures that the dwarves had stored in the Lonely Mountain.

Wealth and silk move people’s hearts, and the dragon is no exception. Sure enough, money is the root of all evil.

However, although Bud was heartbroken, he couldn’t change anything.

The facts of the past have happened, and he is just an ordinary person.

All he can do is to try his best to help all the residents who need his help now.

Therefore, Balin was extremely happy to suddenly get so many gold coins from the dwarves, which made him a rare good mood.

However, when the boat approached Changhu Town and saw a figure in the distance, his mood suddenly became a little worse.

Alfred, that damned villain, bitch, the lackey of the mayor of Long Lake Town.

The person standing at the mouth of the town water is the villain that Bud and all the residents of Long Lake Town hate – Alfred.

“Hurry up and hide in the barrels!” Bud had no choice but to turn his head to face the dwarf, Bilbo, and Carl.

He clearly knew the virtue of this villain Alfred. If he knew that he would earn a lot of gold coins from these dwarves, how could the money continue to stay in his hands?

Alfred will definitely keep these things for himself, or tell the mayor of them.

In short, no matter what kind of ending, it is not what Bahrain wants to see.

Hearing this, the dwarves were a little puzzled, but to enter a town, is it necessary to act like a thief?

Carl followed Bud’s eyes and saw the man standing on the pier in the distance. The man’s face was sour and mean, his eyes were rolling, and he didn’t look like a good person.

Based on Bud’s anxious appearance, Carl could guess that Bud should have a conflict with the treacherous-looking man in front of him.

He looks sour, and he is in conflict with a good man like Bud, so there is only one possibility.

This man must be the mayor’s deputy who finally killed himself – Mr. Niangpao.

Carl was very impressed with this man, of course, not only because of his greed for money and fear of death, but because of his shameless but not ashamed self-righteousness.

This guy doesn’t feel that there is anything wrong with all his actions.

Whether it was pretending to be a woman when the orcs invaded, wanting to leave with the elderly, women and children, or stuffing his chest with gold coins and holding his head high when escaping, he felt that he did nothing wrong.

This guy is a rare villain, a complete and pure villain.

From a certain perspective, such a person is considered a strong-willed generation.

So Carl was really impressed with him.

“Hurry up!” Bud’s urging voice came again, “That guy is difficult to deal with. If he finds out, you may be caught in jail.”

In terms of Alfred’s character, if he really knew that the dwarves were hiding gold coins, he would definitely act like this. In this regard, Bud will not think it is impossible.

The dwarves looked at each other and looked at Thorin.

There are fish in the wooden barrel, and it smells really bad. Although they don’t care much, they still feel a little aggrieved.

Sorin also frowned, instinctively wanting to refuse, but, thinking that the Lonely Mountain is in front of him, and he has experienced so much before, it is not bad to endure it now to avoid unnecessary trouble.

He was thinking about what to say, but Carl suddenly said, “Bud, go over, I don’t think he will make things difficult for us.”*
