"The accommodation and food arrangements along the way should be in the kind of military rainproof tents used by Baggins and Gandalf, the kind with momentum inside; The meal is based on tonight's dinner. Thorin said.

"And this spirit, give us one bottle a day, no, three." One of the dwarves jumped up and said, and hurriedly retreated when he saw Ming Yanwei's casserole-sized fist and threatening eyes.

"yes, three bottles of spirits a day." Thorin added.

"Alright, deal with Gandalf, please draw up a deed." Yang Xin said.

Gandalf hesitated, he didn't want to draft this contract, in Gandalf's opinion, drafting this contract would turn everyone from friends to pure business, but seeing the box of cigars handed over by Yang Xin, go to his mother's friend, Gandalf simply drafted a contract.

According to Yang Xin's intentions, a contract was drafted, in which Yang Xin was Party A, and the dwarves led by Thorin Oak Shield were Party B, and the contract lightly described the responsibilities and obligations of Yang Xin and Ming Yanwei, as well as the income received, and the punishment for breaking the contract was also a passing sentence.

However, at Yang Xin's strong request, Gandalf wrote in very small words in the lower right corner of the contract: "The final interpretation right of this contract belongs to Party A".

The contract was written in two copies by Gandalf in Terran, Elven, and Dwarven scripts, and Yang Xin and Ming Yanwei happily signed and put their handprints on it. The dwarves and Gandalf don't understand, how can Ming Yanwei, as a public relations manager, understand that this contract is shit throughout, and the most important and core thing is the sentence at the end "The final interpretation of this contract belongs to Party A".

"Don't you believe our dwarven oath," Thorin roared angrily, jumping three feet high.

Yang Xin didn't speak, just put on a look of "love to sign or not". It is said that dwarves are kind, but Yang Xin scoffs, not to mention what kind of grievances dwarves have with the elves of the dark forest, just to say that they can survive in a wild place like Middle-earth, I am afraid it is not just by kindness.

Besides, the reward offered by Thorin's Oak Shield may seem like a lot, but it all comes after taking out the dragon Smaug. Moreover, in Thorin's mind, there was no idea of killing the dragon Smaugan at all, everything revolved around stealing the Akon Gem, and by stealing the Akon Gem, Thorin's goal was achieved, that is, to become the king of the new generation of dwarves; As for the treasure in the lonely mountain, it's there, if you have the ability, go and get it, Thorin is clearly going to play a scoundrel.

Therefore, Yang Xin guarded against Solin's hand, made a contract, and had a contract in hand, which is called "the teacher is famous".

Solin looked at Yang Xin with a gesture of not signing, and finally gritted his teeth and pressed his own handprint, not only Solin pressed his handprint, but the rest of the dwarves also pressed their handprints.

Yang Xin Shi Ran put away the contract, and with a wave of his hand, four hot pots and a large number of ingredients appeared in front of the thirteen dwarves, and Solin enjoyed a hot pot as the future dwarf king, and the remaining twelve dwarves enjoyed a hot pot in a group of four.

Yang Xin also asked Baggins to serve Thorin at the cost of a cigar, so that he could fully experience the luxury of a nobleman, without Thorin's hands, and the wine and food were served in front of his mouth

Treat differently, this is Yang Xin's intention.

Gandalf wanted to get up and persuade, but seeing Yang Xin's seemingly nonchalant smile, he finally sighed and smoked his cigar silently.

In the course of the following expedition, Yang Xin increased this differential treatment. On the occasion, Thorin used the best; For the cuisine, Solin is also used with the best; Fine wine, Thorin still uses the best; Even Yang Xin, in order to save Thorin from the fatigue of the journey, gave Sorin a small Persian flying carpet, which could only take two people, but Sorin enjoyed it alone, as expected.

"Why did you do that?" Gandalf finally asked as he watched Thorin get farther and farther away from the other dwarves. In Yang Xin's words, this kind of behavior of Sorin is to be separated from the masses, away from the masses, not to share happiness, let alone suffering.

"Thorin is a dwarven royal family, and only through this kind of differential treatment can it be shown that the dignity of the dwarven royal family is not," Yang Xin said lightly.

"You're a typical Terran aristocratic thought." Gandalf said.

"No, it's human nature." Yang Xin

retorted, then pointed to the dwarves in the distance who were eating Hesse and said, "The materials obtained by the dwarves are all obtained by Thorin Oak Shield in exchange for his share of the treasure, since these dwarves can sit back and enjoy the benefits, then why can't Thorin be allowed to enjoy the supreme exclusively, these are all bought by Thorin with money." ”

"Is it that Thorin spent money, and the food and housing are the same as other dwarves, or even inferior to other dwarves, so that you are happy," Yang Xin asked rhetorically.

"I didn't mean that," Gandalf said, opening his mouth.

"What do you mean is not to suffer from widowhood, but from unevenness," Yang Xin said with a smile.

"yes, that's what it means." Gandalf nodded hurriedly.

"However, these materials of mine are all bought by Thorin himself, why should Thorin be evenly distributed and not ask them to repay the favor of dripping water, but only ask them not to be so at ease, and this kind of behavior with a little gratitude seems to me to be a rare noble quality." Turning around again, Yang Xin's face was even more smiling, and Yang Xin suddenly found it very interesting to scare the wise Gandalf into silence.

"These twelve dwarves follow Thorin, and Thorin has an obligation and responsibility to take charge of everything they do." Gandalf thought about it for a long time before he could hold back such a sentence.

"Thorin is thirsty for them, hungry for them, frozen for them, tired of them Gandalf, you ask yourself, pat your conscience and say, is everything that the dwarves have now much stronger than before, Gandalf, you have traveled a lot of Middle-earth, you dare to say that the dwarves are no worse than the nobles now," Yang Xin retorted again.

Gandalf opened his mouth, but never said anything, Yang Xin was right, the materials were bought by Thorin with money, although they were blank checks, and these materials were no worse than those used by the nobles, but there was always a feeling that something was wrong

"Do you want to say that as a royal family, you should share the joys and sorrows and fate with your subordinates in order to achieve great things?" Yang Xin asked again.

Gandalf was silent for a moment, then nodded.

"But why, Thorin has divided the treasure in the Lone Mountain in sixteen equal parts for the trip to the Lonely Mountain, even Baggins has a share, and the dwarves also have a share, since you have to work hard to get the money, this is the spirit of contract, Thorin does not owe the dwarves, but the dwarves owe Thorin, but, Gandalf, why don't you advise the dwarves to be grateful."

"Actually, I don't really understand why the dwarves can take it for granted that Thorin has spent money to buy everything, and they can still get the treasure of the lonely mountain, but they don't have a trace of gratitude."

Gandalf thought about Yang Xin's question for a long time and didn't give an answer, and in the end, Gandalf kicked the question back to Yang Xin.

"First of all, we have to establish a relatively fair, just and open system, and secondly, we have to give the people at the bottom a channel to rise, these are the most important, as for why these dwarves take it for granted to eat Thorin's, drink Thorin's, and take Thorin's, and don't thank Thorin, it's because they're uneducated, and they have nine years of compulsory education. Read more books to understand humility and etiquette."

Just when Yang Xin was talking nonsense with Gandalf in a serious manner, Ming Yanwei said in a gloating tone, "This group of dwarfs can really make trouble, let's make trouble, let's make trouble, let's make trouble with the ogre, now there are these dwarfs who are comfortable." ”
