Became a salted fish pretend heiress and handed over the system

The bearded man had someone collect the ink stones and counted them, making sure the number was correct. He chuckled and said to them, "You’re lucky today. I have other things to do and won’t bother you too much. Just go your way."

"Okay, we’ll leave now," Xia Yue replied immediately, pulling Yan Mo’s arm to hurry him up.

The group quickly mounted their carriage, urged their horses, and set off.

"Second Master, are we really going to let them go? They seem to be quite wealthy," a follower next to the bearded man asked after they had left.

"I think they are dangerous. More trouble than they’re worth. We have a big deal coming up and that’s far more important than these few people," answered the bearded man, whose intuition had saved his life more than once. This time, he decided to trust his sense as well, settling for a small robbery and not wanting to push them into desperate resistance.

"What big deal is it?" the curious follower asked. They had been lying in wait here for several days, robbing several passersby, but they hadn’t encountered this so-called big deal.

"It should arrive in the next few days, just be patient. We will continue our ambush and pick up whatever falls through," the bearded man said, without giving any direct answers.

Without getting an answer and not daring to defy, the followers continued their ambush, waiting for the next group of people.
