Quixote and Sancho, they really opened their eyes today.

Ellington, who was originally thought to be extremely poor and almost everyone looked yellow and skinny, changed a lot in a short year.

Not only the dirty and narrow muddy streets disappeared, but also the low and dark small houses were demolished and replaced by spacious and flat black roads and various new houses with distinctive and unique styles.

If these are nothing, jikod felt that the dwarves and dwarfs he had witnessed would be one of the most important discoveries of the trip.

Although dwarves are occasionally seen in the human kingdom, they are generally guests of a big man and forging masters, so dwarves are nothing.

But thanks to the propaganda of the Gnome race, the totem, gnomes have no good image in human rumors.

Dirty, vulgar, stupid

In order to despise dwarfs, goblins use almost all the useful negative words in their propaganda, which also leads to the poor impression of dwarfs by many humans who have never seen dwarfs.

That's why Quixote was so shocked when he saw the team of dwarves, dwarfs and humans.

"So I said, ah, the strength of No. 2 alloy is still not enough, and the mixing proportion of refined gold needs to be increased."

What's that dwarf talking about? Alloy? Refined gold?

"If you increase the proportion of refined gold, the quality and low price of universal alloy will disappear. The paver is not a weapon. Why do you need such high strength and put away your set!"

How dare the dwarf scold the dwarf? I must be dazzled, right?

"Two masters, no matter how... The problem of compensation is always inevitable?"

Edgar smiled bitterly, sandwiched between Brian and Nokia, and he could only be a peacemaker.

So Brian and Nokia looked at Quixote: "lose money!"

... after losing his money and regaining his freedom, Quixote couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

"Captain Quixote, this Ellington is strange!"

Sancho whispered, "dwarves, dwarfs and humans can coexist harmoniously. Doesn't it mean that most dwarves and dwarfs have returned to the depths of the mountain in order to avoid conflict with humans?"

"That's right, but you can't organize them to come out."

Quixote shook his head. Although what had just happened made him feel bad, now he was in a happier mood.

"Captain Quixote?"

"Sancho, and you, don't look at me like that, use your brain!"

Quixote looked at them with a look of hatred for iron and steel: "think about it, Ellington has dwarves and dwarfs here! What does this mean? It shows that the rumor that Ellington's business with the elves is likely to be true!"

"That is to say -"

Sangqiu's eyes brightened: "elf family, really show up!"

"Probably."

Jikod lowered his voice: "don't talk nonsense here. If someone hears us, we'll be in trouble. Stay in Ellington today and take a day off tomorrow to see if we can find out anything about the elves."

Sancho laughed: "of course not!"

The party came to the only hotel in Ellington town. Naturally, it was the oak heart tavern of old Tom and aunt Fanny.

After seeing old Tom, jikod was relieved. Fortunately, the owner of the tavern had not changed.

"Hoo... Did you find it? It's so cool in the tavern!"

"Really!"

"Don't talk."

Quixote gave a reprimand and then shouted to his boss, "boss, come to seven guest rooms!"

"Yo, this guest looks a little familiar. Did he come last year?"

There were not many people in Ellington all year round, so old Tom remembered jikod, and jikod was not surprised.

Seeing so many customers, he couldn't close his mouth with a smile: "how many people live for a few days?"

"Two days."

"OK, there are fourteen gold coins in total. Please pay first."

Jikod, who was taking out his wallet, froze there: "sorry, how much?"

"Fourteen gold coins."

"Boss, are you teasing me?"

Jikod was furious: "when I came here last year, a double room was only ten silver coins a night! How did it rise tenfold in a year?"

"The standards are different. Our tavern rooms have just been... Renovated and upgraded... Is that right?"

Aunt Fanny nodded, and then old Tom said with a smile: "under the leadership of the wise lord, our Ellington is very different from before. Believe me, after living, you will find that the price of a gold coin for one night is really worth it."

Although Quixote was full of resentment, this was the only place Ellington could live.

"Sancho, lend me gold coins!"

Sancho looked unbelievable: "Captain!?"

"What are you looking at?"

Quixote cursed with a black face: "just fined, I paid all the money! Where are the gold coins!"

"But we don't have much..."

"Don't talk nonsense! Hurry up!"

Fourteen people you pit me and I dig you. After a long time, I reluctantly collected enough twelve gold coins and two hundred silver coins to squeeze out the room money.

Old Tom smiled and handed them the room key: "guest, it's still the same on the second floor. I'm a little busy. Please help yourself."

As soon as they turned around, they heard old Tom continue to say with a smile: "by the way, guests, now our dinner food standard has several grades, ten silver coins, fifty silver coins and one gold coin. Because there are a large number of guests, please inform me in advance of what grade you want to eat, so that I can prepare for the kitchen."

"A gold coin dinner..."

Quixote took a breath of air-conditioning. Is it still the poor Ellington!?

"Oh, it seems that the guests are very interested in our new special pepper series. The Lord will thank you for your support. We'll let people start preparing materials."

Old Tom took Quixote's exclamation as his choice and went to prepare.

“——”

Quixote opened his mouth. He was ashamed to stop old Tom.

Faced with the team members' resentful sight, jikod became angry: "look at me! Don't blame me! He took it out of context --"

"Vice captain sangqiu, we'd better pay for the dinner..."

"I think so, too."

"Asshole! Do you have the heart to abandon me!?"

"But who made you so reckless, Captain, that we lost thousands of gold coins at once..."

"Yes, if we hadn't destroyed the magic paver, we wouldn't be so tight..."

"Damn! Don't forget, we did it together! And it's the job I took over! You don't want to make money, do you?"

When Quixote said that, the guys shut up.

"Go back and have a rest, and then go outside to collect information. That's it. Disband!"

Quixote said that he took the lead in returning to his room, and Sancho followed him with a bitter smile.

"Captain, it's easy for you to let them - Captain?"

"Sangqiu..."

Jikod's voice was a little dry: "I roughly understand why this room needs a gold coin all night."

Sangqiu came forward and was stunned.

The guest rooms in this tavern are quite different from those in other places. The rooms are clean and tidy. The white sheets and bedding on the single bed are spotless. A faint refreshing smell floats in the room. This smell is like the hot-selling Mint dew.

There are many strange things in the room, which jikod doesn't know, but he can feel that these things are not simple, which may be the reason why the accommodation is so expensive.

"What's that?"

Sancho saw a small book on the table, took it up, turned it over a few eyes, and then handed it to jikod. He was a little embarrassed on his face: "forget I can't read..."

Quixote simply looked at his book and couldn't help sucking the air conditioner. If his little brother wasn't nearby, he wanted to turn around and run away - he was afraid of damaging things when he lived here!

What are those things?

Hanging on the wall is an expensive magic air conditioner! You can adjust the temperature in the room at will! Hot summer can also become very refreshing! Just now, the hall was so cool because of this thing!

Hanging from the ceiling is an expensive magic crystal lamp! Lighting can be provided at night without lighting candles. It is the patent of aristocrats and millionaires! They can also enjoy this treatment here!

On the next table is a magic hot kettle! You can boil water at any time. You don't have to go to the kitchen to ask for hot water!

In the separate cubicles next to them, the white and delicate ceramic wash basin makes people unbearable to touch, and there is another pool containing water, which is so clean that these adventurers have no face to see people.

But jikod's face turned red and white after reading it. He thought it was a micro well for water storage in the guest room. What happened?

That's a ceramic toilet for toilet!

There is also a magic energy water heater hanging on the wall of the bathroom, which can enjoy hot water bath at any time

Oh, my God! The gods are on!

After reading the instructions in the little book and walking around the room, both jikod and Sancho were dumbfounded.

Is this really Ellington?

Isn't this Alex? Or the city of silver?

How could a little Ellington have so many magic props? Besides, I didn't see it in the Lord's house. It's just an ugly tavern!

Even the tavern can use these expensive magic props. What about the others here?

Where's the Lord here?

Is their life more exaggerated? More incredible?

Quixote can't imagine!

At the beginning, he told his teammates that Ellington was a poor place that couldn't afford to eat. He also made them prepare for hardship, but the reality gave him a hard slap.

Ellington poor?

What are they?

Wandering beggars?

"Captain..."

Sancho swallowed his mouth: "I doubt more and more whether we have been hit by some evil magic... Is this really the Ellington you said? Are they Hicks or are we Hicks..."

Sancho was almost crying: "these things may not be seen even in the Great Duke of matani."

"Of course this is Ellington! I won't go the wrong way!"

Quixote took a deep breath: "it's just that in this year, the changes in Ellington were beyond everyone's imagination... And."

Jikod glared at Sancho: "outside, don't mention the adult's name!"

Sangqiu's face changed slightly: "yes!"
