Just when Chen Xinyuan didn't know what to do, Xiao Liuzi came over and said, "Okay, two is enough, let's go."

Xie Fanjin was immediately happy. He put the silver back into his arms and took Xiao Yanxi away.

Xiao Zhenzhen chased after him and shouted, "Xie Fanjin, you need to buy more delicious food!"

Xie Fanjin paused and asked Mrs. Jin and Mrs. Chen San, mother and daughter, "What do you want to buy?"

The three people shook their heads and said there was nothing to buy.

Chen Xinyuan looked at Xie Fanjin pulling Xiao Yanxi away, his face looking extremely ugly.

Not only might her plan fail, but she would also lose a tael of silver!

Chen Xinyu's face turned unhappy when she saw the two people appear together.

Whenever Xie Fanjin and Xiao Yanxi were together, it was as if they were silently reminding her of the embarrassing things that had happened before.

It seemed like this was the first time that Xie Fanjin was strolling through the ancient streets so leisurely and seriously. He wanted to buy everything and take a look at everything.

"Where is this? How long will it take us to reach Jinsha Island?" Xie Fanjin took a bite of the sour and sweet candied fruit and turned to ask Xiao Yanxi.

Inadvertently, I saw Xiao Liuzi talking to Cheng Gang.

Cheng Gang looked back and forth between her and Xiao Yanxi.

Xie Fanjin had never had any contact with Cheng Gang, but she could see that since he joined, all the officers seemed to listen to him, including the previous captain Wang Tiezhu, who obeyed Cheng Gang's orders even more.

Xiao Yanxi said, "We have already left Youzhou and have just entered Bingzhou. Next we will pass through Zhongzhou, Jiangzhou, Xiangzhou, Cangzhou, and then arrive at Jinsha Island."

Because we had just started our journey and so many things happened, the journey was delayed for a long time, so we are only about 500 miles away from the capital.

Xie Fanjin thought about it seriously and felt that he had to try Bingzhou's special food.

Xie Fanjin specifically asked about Bingzhou's specialties. She was particularly interested in deep-fried pork, donkey meat pancakes, and yellow cakes. She went to the largest restaurant and bought all of them, and also bought sweet and sour fish for Xiao Zhenzhen.

Xie Fanjin couldn't help but feel a little emotional. How nice it would be if this was not exile but traveling.

When Chen Xinyu saw that Xie Fanjin actually had money to buy food in a restaurant, she was so angry that she almost vomited blood. If she had known this would happen, she would not have given her the one or two taels of silver!

Xiao Yanxi was somewhat helpless: "We are in exile, can you keep a low profile?"

By buying so many things at once, are they trying to let everyone know that although they are exiled, they have plenty of money?

Xie Fanjin rolled his eyes: "What's wrong? I just picked up fifty taels of silver on the road, so I can spend it however I want, okay?"

Although they should indeed keep a low profile in this situation, they can't always make things difficult for themselves. When the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers and when the water comes, we will block it with earth.

Xie Fanjin saw someone selling cloth up ahead and thought of grabbing a few pieces of cloth to make a few sets of clothes, but he was stopped after just two steps.

"That fifty taels of silver you just picked up is mine, give it back to me now!"

Xie Fanjin was so angry that he almost laughed. There are really all kinds of birds in the forest.

"What did you just say?" Xie Fanjin asked again uncertainly.

The man, dressed in coarse cloth, looked restlessly back and forth between Xie Fanjin and Xiao Yanxi. "I say, the fifty taels of silver you just found were lost by me. You must return them to me."

Xiao Yanxi's face darkened slightly. This man was so shameless that he could say such words.

Xie Fanjin said meaningfully, "If you say the silver is yours, then it's yours. If I say I picked up fifty taels, then you lost fifty taels. If I say I picked up a hundred taels, then you also lost it?"

Wu Er was a little impatient: "Stop talking nonsense. I saw with my own eyes that you picked up fifty taels of silver on this street. The silver was lost by me, so why don't you return it?"

Xie Fanjin: "No."

Wu Er gritted his teeth and shouted at the passersby, "Everyone, come and see! This woman picked up fifty taels of silver from me and refused to return it. She even kept it for herself. This is simply too much!"

Seeing that more and more people gathered to watch the fun, Xiao Yanxi immediately wanted to teach Wu Er a lesson.

Xie Fanjin stopped him with a look.

"Then tell me, the fifty taels you lost, was it a whole fifty-tael silver ingot, or a ten-tael ingot, or a twenty-tael ingot, or something else?"

Wu Er rolled his eyes and said, "I had a few drinks, so I don't remember, but it was fifty taels anyway!"

Xie Fanjin was stunned. "Fifty taels of silver is not a small amount. Even if you were drunk, you wouldn't have forgotten it. Since you've been drunk, how can you be sure that my fifty taels are yours? Are you just talking drunkenly?"

After Xie Fanjin said this, Wu Er was speechless.

Someone noticed something was wrong and muttered quietly: "I think this guy is a swindler. That's fifty taels of silver, and he doesn't even remember what it looks like."

"That's right. If I had fifty taels, I would have hidden it safely. Why would I bring so much silver to drink on the street?"

"Look at the coarse cloth he's wearing. He doesn't look like he has fifty taels of silver!"

"Who on earth lost fifty taels of silver? Come out and claim it!"

Xie Fanjin felt a little ashamed. He had just blurted out some words, but he didn't expect it to cause such trouble.

At this time, Chen Xinyu pulled Qian Yuwan and squeezed in from the crowd.

"Xie Fanjin, this officer said he lost fifty taels of silver. I didn't expect you to find it. Please return it to him!"

After Chen Xinyu finished speaking, Xiao Liuzi also squeezed in from the crowd. He grinned and stretched out his hand towards Xie Fanjin: "Thank you very much, young lady. I didn't expect that the silver would be found by you. So, I don't want all the fifty taels. You can give me forty-eight taels, and the remaining two taels will be my thank you!"

After Xiao Liuzi finished speaking, he glared at Wu Er in dissatisfaction. This useless guy had to be dealt with personally.

Wu Er scratched his head in annoyance, turned around and disappeared into the crowd.

Xie Fanjin didn't expect that Chen Xinyu would collude with this official and conspire to take away her fifty taels of silver.

Before Xie Fanjin could open his mouth, someone who was watching the fun asked, "What kind of money was that fifty taels you lost? Was it broken silver or a whole silver ingot?"

Xiao Liuzi's eyes flashed with a gleam of light: "I lost two twenty-liang notes and one ten-liang note, which were put in a purse."

When Xie Fanjin spent the money, everyone was watching him. It was definitely not an ingot of fifty taels, nor was it a silver note.

If Xie Fanjin said that the silver she picked up was different from what he said, then he would insist that Xie Fanjin had replaced it all and see what Xie Fanjin said.

Xie Fanjin: "I didn't see your wallet."

Xiao Liuzi said seriously, "Anyone who picks up money is afraid that the owner will come looking for it. It's impossible for them to keep the owner's purse. Then you must have lost the purse. I don't blame you for that."

All of a sudden, everyone had a good impression of Xiao Liuzi. Xiao Liuzi was different from the previous Wu Erke.

He had a good attitude, spoke well, and was willing to give Xie Fanjin two taels of silver as a token of gratitude, so Xie Fanjin must return forty-eight taels to Xiao Liuzi.

Chen Xinyu was secretly delighted. Xie Fanjin had taken advantage of her for one or two taels of silver before, and she made Xie Fanjin spit out fifty taels in one go.

On the road of exile, one has to spend every penny carefully. Xie Fanjin suddenly spent fifty taels of silver. Xiao Yanxi will definitely be angry, and he will definitely not let Xie Fanjin have an easy time!

Xie Fanjin's eyes fell on Xiao Liuzi, and the smile on his lips turned slightly cold: "Are you sure that my fifty taels of silver are yours?"

Xiao Liuzi nodded heavily!

Xie Fanjin: "Then swear an oath. If I find this fifty taels of silver and it's not yours, I will be struck by lightning and die a miserable death."

Xiao Liuzi's expression changed: "Hey, woman, don't push your luck. How can you still curse me?"
