How many kilograms does it weigh?
Who would be so bored as to weigh out tens of thousands of taels of silver?
Xu Lingyue had already started counting on her fingers in her mind, and soon fine beads of sweat appeared on her forehead.
Fu Xiang had tried to figure it out in her mind, but to no avail.
Although she is a fragment of the Nine-Tailed Celestial Fox's soul... divination has always been a weakness of the demon race.
Seeing this, Su Nan had no choice but to reveal the answer directly.
"One catty is sixteen taels, so 150,000 taels of silver is 9,375 catties!"
Xu Lingyue and Fu Xiang were even more puzzled.
"But what does this have to do with the tax and silver case?!"
Xu Lingyue couldn't understand the crux of the matter at all.
Fu Xiang is more quick-witted.
However, because of the clash with Su Nan just now, my mind is still a mess and I haven't recovered yet.
"From the city gate to Guangnan Street, it is thirty li in total."
"We will pass through four bustling cities along the way."
“Moreover, your father was escorting over nine thousand catties of silver.”
The two women became increasingly confused as they listened, not understanding the purpose of Su Nan's analysis.
Sunan had no choice but to reveal the answer directly.
"Guangnan Street is a full thirty li away from the South Gate. Even with the slow pace of a horse, it would still have to pass through four bustling markets along the way."
"If they entered the city at 5:45 AM, it would be impossible for them to arrive at Guangnan Street by 7:15 AM!"
As soon as the words were spoken, Fu Xiang and Xu Lingyue were both stunned!
How could Su Nan find a flaw in a tax silver case that baffled the Kyoto Prefecture, the Imperial Observatory, and even the night watchmen?!

Chapter 5 The Helpless Prefect of Kyoto [Seeking Flowers and Monthly Tickets]
The tax evasion scandal had such a profound impact that it shocked both the government and the public.
The Kyoto Prefecture, in conjunction with the Imperial Observatory, is investigating the case, while the night watchmen are also secretly searching for clues.
They couldn't find the slightest clue!
Su Nan didn't even go to the scene; he just glanced at the case file and discovered the flaws!
Xu Lingyue and Fu Xiang both stared wide-eyed at Su Nan.
Xu Lingyue only knew that the poetry of southern Jiangsu was unparalleled.
I never expected that Su Nan's ability to solve cases would be so outstanding.
No, it's not just outstanding, it's downright astonishing!
Fu Xiang was no less shocked than Xu Lingyue.
She was a secret agent of the Demon Kingdom and knew a little more about the inside story of this matter.
Fu Xiang became close to Su Nan for two reasons: first, to use Su Nan's talent to gain fame; and second, because Fu Xiang was indeed attracted to Su Nan's body.
Su Nan became a regular at Yingmei Pavilion, and the other guests felt ashamed of themselves, so she didn't have to entertain them.
However, this was the first time Fu Xiang had ever witnessed that, in addition to his abundant talent, Su Nan also possessed such strong crime-solving abilities!
The case was so ingeniously designed, with each part intricately linked, that even the night watchman couldn't find a single clue.
He just glanced at the file and was able to spot something amiss?!
Although Su Nan did not find the most crucial clue, it was still enough to shock Fu Xiang.
however.
Su Nan's next words shocked Fu Xiang even more.

③②④①O “There are actually quite a few suspicious points in this case.”
"Kyoto Prefecture believes this is the work of a demon, but in my opinion, it is actually man-made."
"The so-called strong wind and explosion in the water after climbing the bridge are just illusions."
"Silver money is of little use to demons, so why take such a big risk to rob tax silver in broad daylight in the capital? Are you trying to kill yourselves by pretending that the Imperial Observatory and the night watchmen don't exist?"
"So whether it's a monster or an explosion, they're both hiding something!"
Fu Xiang and Xu Lingyue were both intrigued by Su Nan's words and asked with wide eyes, "What are you trying to hide?"
Su Nan smiled faintly and said, "Silver, not silver."
"I already told you, with so much silver, it's impossible to reach Guangnan Street in such a short time."
"So what your father was escorting definitely wasn't silver!"
Xu Lingyue and Fu Xiang were slow to realize what was happening, and their eyes flashed with shock.
They knew that Su Nan's analysis was correct.
"But if it's not silver in the carriage, what could it be?"
Xu Lingyue asked blankly.
“My father would have checked carefully before delivering the tax money. Although he is reckless, he wouldn’t be so careless.”
“Brother Su, although you have discovered many flaws, without concrete evidence, it will probably be difficult to clear the Xu family’s name.”
Su Nan also thought of this and nodded slightly.
"Fortunately, I know how to make this."
Su Nan asked Fu Xiang to bring him a brush and ink, and began to write and draw on the paper.
Looking at what Su Nan had written on the paper, Fu Xiang exclaimed in surprise, "Young Master Su, you actually know alchemy?"
Alchemist, Rank 6 in the Warlock class!
Without turning his head, Su Nan smiled and said, "I know a little bit."
After finishing writing it, Su Nan handed it to Xu Lingyue.
"Inform the Kyoto Prefecture based on these flaws in the case file."
"Then you give what I wrote to Caiwei, the girl from the Imperial Observatory."
"After that, everything was fine."
"The Xu family should be able to survive this calamity."
Xu Lingyue gripped the files and letters Su Nan handed her tightly and nodded solemnly.
She looked at Su Nan with gratitude in her eyes and said sincerely, "Brother Su, thank you for saving my whole family."
"Afterwards, whatever you want, Lingyue... I'll grant your wish."
A blush rose to Xu Lingyue's cheeks.
Su Nan laughed loudly, "Easy!"
"If the Xu family is exonerated, you will drink with me for three days!"
Xu Lingyue nodded without hesitation.
"it is good!"
She would be willing to spend a lifetime, let alone three days.
……
Kyoto Prefecture.
The governor of Kyoto sighed repeatedly, his brow furrowed in worry.
With 150,000 taels of silver lost in the capital, he, as the prefect of the capital, bears inescapable responsibility.
Your Majesty, solve the case within three days!
But this case is clearly caused by a demon, how can it be solved?!
Even with the help of the Imperial Observatory and the night watchmen, they have yet to find a single clue.
The governor of Kyoto was in a real bind.
Although the escort, Xu Pingzhi, has been imprisoned, if he fails to solve the case, he will certainly be held accountable by the Ministry of Justice afterward!
After all, this incident happened in Kyoto.
"Miss Caiwei, is it really true that there isn't even the slightest clue?"
The Kyoto Prefect looked at a girl in a yellow dress sitting to the side.
She has a beautiful, delicate oval face.
Her large eyes were bright and sparkling, with the whites of her eyes as clear as a baby's, making her look extremely pure.
This woman was Chu Caiwei, the sixth disciple of the supervisor, a seventh-rank feng shui master in the sorcerer system, responsible for investigating tax silver cases with the capital prefecture.
The downside is that her chest is too flat.
Chu Caiwei was munching on fruit when she mumbled, "Really not."
"I searched along both banks of the river with them, and there was really no trace of demonic energy."
The governor of Kyoto sighed upon hearing this.
Since the tax silver case was caused by a demon, the most urgent task is to search for the demon's whereabouts.
But even Caiwei couldn't find any trace of the demon, so how could the case be solved?
Beside Chu Caiwei sat a serious-looking man with stiff, sculpted features, devoid of any emotion.
