Answer

Hi Jessica,

This website has a good translation of that scene: http://www.ebigear.com/resdown-1823-7777700105869.html

Their translation of the sentence is:

..就是这样的他立下了遗嘱给我留下不过一千银币

So "this fashion" means "这样"

Answer

as in this way or method - by this method (as in his will) - in this manner
