Bilbo thinks about backgammon as he heads to the bustling hobbit market.

He usually only comes out once a month for a big purchase, and the shortest interval is about two weeks.

And this time, he came out to buy twice in the same day.

"Good afternoon, Lord Baggins!"

"Uh-huh, good afternoon." Bilbo nodded perfunctorily.

He didn't like his own people, because he always felt that his people were always so warm and polite - and there was nothing wrong with that, of course, but he just didn't like it.

"It's really strange today, Lord Baggins, you have visited the vegetable market twice, what do you need to come?" The vegetable vendor grinned.

"This, this, this, well, and this, I want the freshest." Bilbo pointed to several dishes in a row.

"Yes, it is guaranteed to be fresh, and it is fed with our own manure." The peddler said enthusiastically.

Bilbo sighed, "You don't have to describe the process, I just want it fresh, and ...... To be cleaned. ”

"Yes, Mr. Baggins, how many do you want?"

"I never buy groceries, you just have to pack all the fresh vegetables."

"Alright, Lord Baggins."

"Also, hire me a coachman, no, two."

"Yes, Lord Baggins."

Bilbo nodded slightly, then walked over to the second booth.

Although he does not like to deal with fellow hobbits, he is not at all averse to spending money on shopping.

He walked around the market, bought all the fresh meat and vegetables in the whole market, and finally, he returned to his pit with a huge procession of coachmen.

Outside the hole at the bottom of his bag, there is an underground storage warehouse, which is relatively cool, which is very suitable for storing all kinds of food.

After the drivers had brought all the ingredients to the pantry, Baggins gave each of them a bag of coins and sent them away.

Then he went to the kitchen and got busy until it was dark, and his sixteen dishes were finally ready.

"Diedy, Hammer, we can have dinner."

"Well, just wait." Xu Feng said lightly.

He ate a big meal in the morning, and another big meal at noon, and now he and Hammer are not very hungry.

What's more, according to the plot, the thirteen dwarves summoned by Gandalf should also appear.

Sure enough, as soon as Xu Feng's voice fell, he heard someone knocking on the door outside.

Bilbo frowned and said, "It's so late, who's coming?" ”

Xu Feng smiled: "Just go and see." ”

Bilbo put down his work, walked to the door, and pulled it open.

Outside the door, a dwarf with a big bald head and a red beard and a small braid beard stood smiling.

"Devalin is here for you!" The dwarf shouted loudly.

Bilbo subconsciously rubbed his ears and said with a puzzled face: "I'm sorry, we don't seem to know each other." ”

Dwarf Dwarin asked, "Aren't you Bilbo Baggins?" ”

Bilbo hurriedly said, "I'm Bilbo Baggins." ”

"Do you know who I am?" Dwarin asked.

Bilbo said, "You said it yourself, you're Dwarin. ”

Dwalin laughed and said, "Look, you know my name, and I know your name, can you still say that we don't know each other?" ”

With that, Dwalin patted Bilbo on the shoulder like an old friend, and then walked straight into the pit at the bottom of the bag.

"Wow, it's really nice here, they all say that hobbits are rich, but I didn't expect it to be so rich!"

Bilbo hurriedly said, "Be careful of my grandpa's grandpa's carpet!" ”

Dwalin looked down and saw that under his mud shoes, he was stepping on a thick and soft carpet, and the patterns on the carpet were intricate, and it was extremely beautiful.

Devalin couldn't help but exclaim, "Hobbits are just exquisite!" You have to rub your feet when you enter the door, and the carpet used to rub your feet is so luxurious. ”

"That's not ......"

Before Bilbo could finish speaking, Dwalin rubbed his muddy shoes against the carpet.

Bilbo was going mad.

Compared to the dwarf Dwarin, Diedi and Hammer are simply sage guests!

Dwalin rubbed the carpet and asked, "Are they all here?" ”

"Who?" Bilbo asked angrily.

"It's my friends! Gandalf brought us together with magical letters, and we've been waiting for this day for sixty years! ”

"What? Gandalf! Bilbo took a deep breath and tried to calm his anger, "That fireworks merchant is too much!" However, I do have two guests here, and I think they should be your friends. ”

When he heard that the two men had arrived first, Dwalin was overjoyed, and he didn't bother to rub his shoes, and hurried into the living room inside.

The six eyes met, and the atmosphere instantly became awkward.

"You're not my friends?" Devalin asked suspiciously, "Who are you?" ”

Xu Feng smiled, "You're Dewarin, right?" We are friends of Gandalf, who hired us to be part of your operations. ”

Dwarin frowned and said, "Dwarves don't need human help. ”

Xu Feng pointed to the hammer beside him and said, "Her name is Hammer, and she has one-sixty-fourth dwarven blood. ”

Dvalin looked at Hammer in surprise, "You look like you're a human, how do you prove that you have dwarven blood?" ”

Hammer laughed, "I'll strike iron." ”

As he spoke, the hammer showed off his forging hammer head and demonstrated the advanced forging striking technique of hitting in the air.

Dewalin's eyes widened suddenly, "Your forging skills are really amazing, I haven't seen such excellent forging skills in a long time!" Well, purebred humans would never have such skills, you should be our kind, and it's a real honor to meet you, Lady Hammer. ”

Dwalin bowed deeply to the hammer.

Hammer glanced at Xu Feng triumphantly, then smiled at Dvalin and said, "I am also deeply honored to meet you, my brother Dvalin. ”

Dwarin smiled: "Since you are also our kindred, then there is nothing wrong with this operation and you, but this man next to you, he is a human being, human beings are unreliable, and they are easy to be tempted, I'm afraid ......"

"He is my brother, I trust him," said Hammer, "and besides, Gandalf has appointed him to help, which is good for your mission." ”

Dwalin shrugged helplessly, "Well, it doesn't matter what I said anyway, the most important thing is that the person has to agree." ”

Bilbo walked in and asked, confused, "What the hell are you talking about?" What task? What that person? ”

Dwalin touched his stomach, "I've heard that hobbits are very hospitable, so, is there anything to eat here?" ”。

Bilbo's heart is full of rage!

He smiled and said, "Yes, of course there is, it's all ready." ”
