The town finally came into sight of George and Millie.

George looked at the town from afar, and the afterglow of the setting sun cast a golden coat over the town of Desaphos, with a meandering river running through the town and surrounded by golden fields.

"It's really a green mountain and a water, Nongfu Spring!" George smiled, "Millie, we're finally here." ”

After so many days, they finally reached their destination.

In the past few days, he would call the "system" every day as soon as he woke up to confirm that the system had really disappeared, and he was afraid that the system would suddenly appear one day in the future.

George didn't know much more about this place than Millie, and both of them started from scratch.

Time will allow them to slowly understand the world.

The two of them walked on the streets of the town, and the street floor was paved with high and low stone slabs, with some green and fresh moss between the cracks of the stone slabs.

Most of the buildings in the town are rough stone masonry buildings, and most of the people here are dressed in a monotonous style, most of them are black, white and gray tight-fitting cloth robes, but there are some more bizarre.

There was one in front of the two of them.

From behind, it was supposed to be a thin man, wearing a large red top hat with several long green feathers stuck in it.

He carried a women's doll taller than him on his back, and walked with the sound of the doll's feet colliding with the uneven stone floor, this doll was so lifelike that George would have thought it was a real person if he hadn't seen the snap joints on the joints of the doll's limbs.

In George's gaze, the man carrying the doll on his back entered a taller building.

At the entrance of the building stands a wooden sign with a meat steak with a wine glass on it, and some words written underneath the sign.

Looking at the words carefully, George read softly, "Welcome to the Old Trafford Tavern that is open all over the Empire, where not only good food and wine are served, but also a safe and comfortable night's sleep." ”

This was exactly what George was looking for, he was looking for a place to eat and then rest.

"Let's go, let's go in." George pushed the door open with Millie.

After the two walked into the tavern, they found that there was no noise as George imagined, there were more than a dozen sparse tables of seats in the wide hall, half of which were still empty, and there were a few "drunks" who were laughing on the round stools of the bar, and the overall environment was not noisy.

George led Millie to a seat near the bar.

Not long after the two sat down, a waitress placed a yellowed menu in front of George.

The young waitress smiled mechanically and said, "What do the two strange travelers want?" ”

George took the menu in his hand and looked at it carefully and said, "Two cups of hot milk, two Traffel thick cut steaks, two Trafford black bread." ”

After speaking, he handed the menu to the waiter and said, "How much does it cost for you to stay here for a day?" ”

"An ordinary day is two silver coins, and the luxurious one is ......."

Without waiting for the waitress to finish speaking, George took out two gold coins and put them on the waitress and said, "Just give me the most expensive one, I am going to live here for a while recently, and the cost of food and accommodation for the two of us during this time will be deducted from this, but the list of money deductions will be given to me every time, and the list will also write how much money I have left with you, you know." ”

"Good...... Ok sir, please wait a minute. The young waitress looked at the pattern of the two gold coins in her hand in amazement, and then walked quickly to the bar.

George didn't know the purchasing power and exchange rate of the coins in this world, not only the money of the unlucky people in his hands, but also a lot of gold bars in the space storage bag, through that list, he could more or less know the specific purchasing power and exchange rate of the coins in his hand.

If you want to understand a world, you have to start by understanding the money in this world.

It wasn't long before a tall man in his early thirties who looked to be in his early thirties and had some sparse hair walked up from behind the bar to George.

George thought that with his height of one meter eighty-seven, there were very few people who could be called tall in front of him before, but this strong man with sparse hair was half a body taller than him, fortunately, the floor height of this house was quite high, if it was an ordinary high-rise house, it was estimated that this guy's heavenly spirit cover could reach the ceiling.

The strong man smiled and walked to a place that was still some distance away from George and stopped, otherwise he was afraid that his figure would cause a sense of oppression to the guests, which would be a little rude.

"Dear guest, I am the owner of this tavern, you can just call me Rab, I am honored to receive a guest like you, this is your bill for today." Raab took out a note from his pocket that looked like a cheat sheet to him, bent down and handed it to George.

George glanced at the bill and folded it and put it in his pocket.

"Okay, please hurry up and serve us food."

"Then please wait a while, I will go over to prepare for you, if you have any special needs, you can also tell me, I will try to meet your needs." With that, the tavern keeper Rab bowed to George, turned and walked back.

George glanced at the bill and knew that one gold coin was equal to a hundred silver coins in this world, and one silver coin was about a hundred copper coins, and he only spent twenty copper coins on this meal.

It didn't take long for the young waitress to come up smiling, and she placed the tray on the table in front of the two of them.

"This is your room key, the name of the room is Black Crow, it's the last door upstairs to the left, two of you use it slowly." After saying that, the girl bowed and walked back.

The behavior of the waiter and the boss made George think, "Are people in this world so polite?" Anyway, let me taste the first dinner made by the people of this planet. ”

He saw Millie's eyes glued to the food and said, "Eat, Millie, but don't eat too fast, don't forget what I told you, you are a girl, eat slowly, it is healthy and elegant." ”

George's eating speed was fast enough, but he didn't expect this girl to eat faster than him every time, and the amount of food was much larger than him.

"I ...... I'll do my best. Millie picked up the knife and fork and looked at the food in front of her hesitantly, she tried to do what George asked, but she still didn't know how to control the speed of her eating, and every time the tip of her tongue touched the delicious food made by George, she couldn't help but gobble it up.

As the two of them ate the food in front of them, the sound of plucking the strings attracted George's attention, and the diners, drunks, and couples in the tavern also looked away.

In the middle of the tavern there is a small stage for performances, and a young man in a big red top hat sits in the middle of the small table plucking the strings and playing a simple cheerful ditty, and the puppet next to him also dances around him, dancing merrily and merrily.

Suddenly, the music shifts, the tune changes from cheerful to sad, and the doll slowly stops its movements and lies down on the ground.

The young man played a sad tune, step by step towards the puppet, he slowly knelt down and sat in front of the puppet, reached out and stroked the puppet's cheek, the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, the man watched the puppet affectionately humming a sad tune, there were no lyrics, but everyone seemed to be able to hear the misfortune told in this heavenly sound.

His singing eventually stopped in a silent shout, and the man took off his hat and the puppet and bowed in all directions.

The audience at the tavern applauded, some of them walked up to the man and put some copper coins in his hat, and even George, who was accustomed to all kinds of music in the twenty-first century, was infected by his singing, and he applauded a few times, and then he took out a silver coin and flicked it on his fingers!

The silver coin streaked a parabola through the air and landed pinpoint into the man's hat.

Seeing that it was a silver coin, the singing young man bowed to George, and all the diners and drinkers around looked at the stranger with a look of amazement.

Unexpectedly, this strangely dressed guy is a musician, and this guy's method of manipulating the puppet makes him unable to understand it.

It seems that the people on this planet are not simple, and any bard has sophisticated puppet control methods.

……

It wasn't long before three dusty men walked into the tavern.

The man at the front was tall, the two people behind him were fat and thin, the man at the front frowned and glanced at the audience, the tavern fell silent for a moment, people avoided his gaze, his gaze paused for a moment as he swept over George and Millie.

The three of them walked to the bar and sat down, and the drunks who had been sitting at the bar drinking had long since disappeared.

The tavern keeper, Rab, walked up to the three and poured them all ale, and he looked down at the tall man and said, "John, is there any news for your daughter?" ”

"Nope." The tall man had a blank face and squeezed out two words from between his teeth.

He picked up the glass and drank it down, slamming the iron glass against the wooden bar.

Seeing that he had finished his drink so quickly, Rab poured him another full one.

The fat man next to John saw that John was about to drink it in one gulp, and then persuaded:

"Captain John, drink less, tomorrow we will continue to look for your daughter."

John ignored him and drank his beer again.

John, who had just finished a drink, burped and said, "Hiccup~~ How else to find it!" There is no news at all, it is like evaporating from the world. This stinky girl! If I let me know where she is, I'll break her legs! ”

George and Millie had finished eating at this time, and Millie had a lot of steak sauce dipping around her mouth, and George saw that he picked up a napkin and gently wiped Millie clean.

"Didn't you say you should eat slowly, look at your mouth full of food."

"But George, you eat it all over your mouth and beard." As she spoke, Millie picked up a napkin to help George wipe his mouth and beard.

George felt a little embarrassed to have a girl wipe your mouth with a big man, so he snatched the napkin from Millie's hand and wiped it twice casually.

"I repeat, you're a girl, you can't eat like this, and we're different, you can't compare with me."

"We're different."

“…… All you have to do is know that what I'm saying is right. ”

"Hmm~" Millie replied with a pout.

……

Since the tavern was quiet at this time, the conversation between George and Millie was slightly noticeable, which attracted the attention of John, who had already drunk three glasses of wine at this time, and he walked to George and Millie's table with heavy steps and a smell of alcohol.

Boom! Boom! John tapped the table twice, and then said to George with a serious face: "I am the captain of the security team in this town, I see that the two of you are a little face-to-face, there have been several cases of missing people in the town recently, and I want to ask you two to do an investigation with me." ”

George slowly stood up, he took Millie's hand and said, "Let's eat, let's go, go to our room." ”

When John saw that George was ignoring him, he was even more angry when he was already in a bad mood.

He walked up to George, who was a head shorter than him, and blocked George's path.

"Bearded man, listen! You'd better cooperate with my work, or I'll put you in a dungeon to eat rats and fleas!" ”

George blocked Millie behind him and endured his anger and said, "Friend, you have drunk too much, don't get in my way, otherwise I will accidentally knock me down, and if you can't get up, you will be in trouble." ”

George and Millie were new to the city, so they wanted to keep a low profile, or he would have punched the guy who dared to yell at him.

John's two companions saw that things were going out of control, and hurriedly put down the wine in their hands and ran over to grab John, who was waving his fist and preparing to attack George.

Rab, the owner of the tavern, quickly put down his work and trotted over.
