"Let me tell you, this merchant is very generous. As long as he agrees to let you stay, he will guarantee that you can get this amount every day." The bearded mercenary said, while stretching out five fingers to gesture.
Hod and his companions followed the bearded and enthusiastic mercenary and listened to his introduction.
"5 copper sheep?" Nott asked in confusion.
"How is it possible? It's 50! 50 copper sheep!" Hearing Nott's answer, the bearded mercenary immediately shook his head and shook the five fingers of his right hand.
"50 copper sheep? So high?" Nott was surprised.
"Hahaha, yes, it's that high. Other merchants can't give such a high price." The bearded mercenary laughed.
"This merchant said that if you can help him take back the goods, everyone will be rewarded with 1 silver deer."
This time, not only Nott was surprised, but even Hod was shocked.
Each person gets 1 silver deer. There must be at least a hundred mercenaries and bounty hunters in this camp, which adds up to 10 gold dragons.
As expected, they are rich and powerful. No wonder they dare to recruit people and find those bandits to take back their things. Having money gives them confidence.
"Okay, the tent in front is where the merchant lives. You go in and ask. I won't go in." The bearded mercenary pointed to a larger tent in front and said.
Hod nodded and walked into the tent with Nott, Paul and the other two.
As soon as they entered the tent, they saw a fat middle-aged man wearing a silk lining inside and a robe outside sitting on a chair, drinking tea leisurely. There were also two guards wearing iron scale armor, pointed helmets on their heads, and long swords on their waists standing next to them.
"Who are you? What are you doing here?" The fat man glanced at Hod and the other four and asked casually.
"Hello, respected sir, we are here to look for work. I heard that you need some mercenaries to help you take back the stolen goods." Hod said.
"Oh? You want to do this job?" The fat man put down his teacup and looked up and down at Hod and others.
"Yes, we are all experienced mercenaries and have completed many tasks." Hod said confidently, his voice firm and steady, as if he was a veteran warrior who had been on the battlefield for a long time.
"Oh? That's great!"
A hint of surprise flashed in the fat man's eyes, and then he regained his composure and said with a smile: "I am short of manpower. If you are willing, I can accept you."
Hearing this, Hod was happy in his heart, but he remained calm on the surface and said: "Thank you, sir, then how much is our reward?"
The fat man laughed, looked up and down at Hod and others, and then said: "I pay based on the equipment and weapons here. Your weapons and equipment... um... don't seem to be too sophisticated?"
Hod Hood frowned slightly, feeling somewhat dissatisfied, but when he thought of the purpose of his coming here, he patiently asked: "Respected sir, what kind of compensation do you think we should get?"
The fat man shook his head gently and said slowly: "Well, you will be like those mercenaries outside, with a daily salary of 50 copper sheep per person, and an additional reward of 1 silver deer after retaking the goods. However, if you perform well in the next operation, I don't mind paying more silver deer."
Hood was slightly disappointed after hearing this, but he also knew that this was already a good treatment.
After all, they didn't come here to make money, and they were lucky to get the same price as the mercenaries outside the tent, so he nodded and said: "Okay, we will work hard."
The fat man nodded and continued to drink tea with his head down. Seeing this, Hood immediately took Nott and the other two out of the tent.
After walking out of the tent, Hood looked around and finally fixed his eyes on the largest tent in the camp. Compared with the slightly ostentatious tent behind him, the tent he was looking at at the moment was wider.
"Boss? What are you looking at?" Nott walked forward with a puzzled look on his face.
"That tent should be where Knight Barnett is." Hood pointed to the wide tent and murmured softly.
You know, since letting Monkron lead the robbers to slaughter the villagers of Lesse Village, Hood has been worried about this matter.
He originally thought that if possible, he would try not to meet Barnett, but he didn't expect that one day he would take the initiative to come to the team led by Barnett.
"Hey, guys, how is it? Did Master Henry agree to let you stay?" Just when Hood was in a trance, the bearded mercenary came over with a smile, his face full of enthusiasm and friendliness, which made people feel cordial.
Hood came back to his senses and immediately showed a bright smile, his eyes flashedWith a gleam of joy, he said, "Not bad luck."
The bearded mercenary raised a thumb and congratulated with a smile, "Congratulations, you got a high-paying job." He seemed to be happy that Hood and his team could stay.
Hood hurriedly thanked him and curiously asked the bearded mercenary's name.
The bearded mercenary answered readily, "Jason Andre... but everyone prefers to call me Bearded Jason."
As he spoke, the bearded mercenary smiled with pride, and it was obvious that this nickname brought him a lot of fun.
Hood also laughed, and this nickname really described it very appropriately.
Then, he introduced himself, Nott, Paul and Jules to Bearded Jason.
After listening to this, Jason the Bearded laughed happily, patted Hod on the shoulder and said, "Hey, guys, today is a great day. I met four warriors!"
"Guys, you just arrived. Have you found a suitable place to stay?" After that, Jason the Bearded asked again.
"Yes, we don't have any acquaintances here." Hod smiled bitterly and asked, "Do you have any good suggestions?"
"Hey, guys, this is not a military camp. Except for those places inside the camp that belong to the town guards, you can live anywhere else, but you need to set up a tent by yourself."
Jason the Bearded pointed to the scattered tents outside the camp and said loudly.
"Oh, that's how it is." Hod nodded, and then thanked Jason the Bearded again.
"You're welcome. If you have any questions, just come to me. I have to go to the camp gate to find my friends, so I won't be with you for the time being."
"Okay, thank you for your help."
Bearded Jason waved his hand and strode towards the camp gate.
"Paul, you and Jules go find a suitable place to unload the things in the carriage." After the figure of bearded Jason went away, Hood immediately put away his smile and ordered.
"Boss, why did you let Danny get off the carriage before entering the valley?" Nott asked.
"Don't you know what we are doing here? Letting Danny come in with us, isn't that telling others that we are in the same group?" Hood explained.
"Oh, so that's it."
Looking at Nott's sudden realization, Hood's eyes twitched a few times, and he didn't bother to pay attention to this stupid guy who only knew how to kill people, and walked directly towards Paul and the others who were setting up the tent.
