To the surprise of no one at all, money can solve everything in this game! Not only can you buy better gear or better horses, you can also use it to buy things NPCs want (rather than find them), or to bribe people and pay fines. Fines?
Well, when you are seen committing a crime such as picking a lot, robbing a place, pick pocketing, or knocking people out - you get a fine (remember to surrender to the guards "G" unless you want to try killing everyone). The highest I've seen is 750g which is chump change for someone walking around with over 100k.
It's also worth noting that in Rattay, the guards have a mandate to search you randomly while in the city and will confiscate and fine you if they find stolen goods on your person. If said stolen goods are on your horse you are fine. Or, bribe him with 20g to let you carry your high value illicit goods as you please. :P
The correct answer is always to pay.
Lastly, remember to buy Saviour Shnapps - the "save game" potion. Yes, you can only save the game by drinking this or by sleeping in a bed allocated for you. These restock daily and can be found at inns, taverns, bathhouses, alchemists, and regular traders.
