Jiang Sibai followed the Bu family to the towering restaurant built next to the river in Peishui City.
This is the Xiangman Tower, which is seven stories high. You can watch the river rolling by while drinking in the building. It is an excellent local place.
As for the seven-story building, Bujia only booked a private room on the fourth floor.
This is also like dividing people into different levels. A wealthy family from out of town like the Bu family can only go up to the fourth level even if they have enough money.
The three floors above are places that only local wealthy people are eligible to enjoy.
Jiang Sibai was walking at the stairs on the fourth floor when he saw that Bu Yuan, the young master of the Bu family who had previously regarded him as an actor, had come out to greet him.
"Brother Bai, it was the boy who was at fault earlier. Please give Brother Bai a large amount of money to give the boy a chance to make amends."
Jiang Sibai didn't respond, just looked at the stairs going up.
Bu Yuan smiled bitterly and said, "Brother Bai, please forgive me, but my Bu family is not qualified to go up any higher. The local aristocratic family is very exclusive. Even for the private room on the fourth floor, my father spent a lot of money. In addition, my Wu family is not qualified to go up."
The family is quite famous in Confucian classics, so we can make the agreement."
Jiang Sibai nodded after hearing this and said, "It's not that I'm dissatisfied, I just feel that this place in Shu is so hierarchical that it makes people breathless."
With that said, he walked into the private room on the fourth floor.
Bu Yuan secretly breathed a sigh of relief before inviting Jiang Sibai to the table.
During the banquet, Jiang Sibai also met Bu Zhi, the head of the Bu family, who indeed felt like an academic master.
This person is quite upright in character and can be considered upright in his conversation.
It is undeniable that there are indeed many people in wealthy families who have very good moral qualities, but they are naturally biased due to their own class issues.
Jiang Sibai inquired about the situation of Bu's family.
Rather, it belongs to a well-known large family in Wu.
Moreover, during this period, the old man served as local officials, and at the highest he was the governor of a county. He was very good at coordinating the interests of all parties to govern the local area.
Originally, such a person was considered a great talent, and Gongsun Zhi should not let him go.
But he didn't like the laws of the Zhou Dynasty, thinking that the laws of the Zhou Dynasty were tyranny.
Therefore, after he handed over all the land and dismissed the tenants in accordance with the laws of the Zhou Dynasty, he chose to move out of Wu with the remaining family property and went with his family to what he thought was the rule of the world.
However, since entering Shu, he has realized some problems.
He was from a good family in Wu land and was the highly respected head of the Bu family.
But in this Shu land, there are many similar families, and there are also many higher-level aristocratic families.
These aristocratic families have formed a stable stratum, and they are oppressing him, an outsider, so much that he feels like he is suffocating.
Therefore, Bu Zhi's mood has not been very good recently.
You can only go to the fourth floor to dine in this fragrant building. This feeling is something Buzhi has never experienced before.
Bu Zhi had a very speculative chat with Jiang Sibai. This expert in Confucian classics thought that Jiang Sibai was just a magical knight, but he did not expect that Jiang Sibai's insight into world affairs was very insightful to everything, which made him very fond of him.
Of course, this is because Jiang Sibai usually only talks a few sentences along their topics, rather than making a long speech himself.
In his opinion, this was nothing to say, it was just a polite response.
At this time, Buyuan was talking about what he had seen and heard in Peishui City. He did not have the same feelings as his father. He only felt that there were many scholars coming and going here, and he was very excited.
So he couldn't help but feel a little carried away, so he said to Jiang Sibai: "I heard from Bu He that Mr. Bai is a knight who punishes evil and promotes good, and kills demons. I wonder what injustice can be found in this Peishui City?"
Jiang Sibai was stunned for a moment when he heard this, then shook his head and sighed without saying a word.
Bu Yuan was stunned and asked in confusion: "Why did Mr. Bai sigh?"
Jiang Sibai said: "When I entered Peishui City, at first glance I felt that everything was fine."
"But when I looked at it again, I could only sigh that the fire from the sky fell down and melted the sin in the city."
Bu Yuan was stunned and asked: "Why is this?!"
Jiang Sibai looked at him and saw that he was dissatisfied yet trying to suppress it, so he refused to explain to him.
He looked at Bu Zhi and said, "Master Bu, you should understand what I mean, right?"
Bu Zhi looked at Jiang Sibai solemnly, nodded slightly and just said: "I still have these insights, but your words are quite extreme. I'm afraid you are not from Wu, but from the north, right?"
Jiang Sibai nodded and said, "I'm from Zhouzhou County."
Bu Zhi suddenly became serious and said: "Zhou Zhou County? That is the hometown of King Zhou. What is Mr. Bai's identity?"
This Bu Zhi was quite intelligent, and he immediately guessed Jiang Sibai's origin.
Jiang Sibai was a little stunned when he heard this, then he laughed and shook his head and said, "When King Zhou was young, he learned swordsmanship from me."
Everyone at the table was speechless for a moment.
Gongsun Zhi's overlord bravery has been demonized by the nobles all over the world. Now when they suddenly met Gongsun Zhi's martial arts teacher, they all felt suffocated.
Bu Yuan looked embarrassed and said, "But I've never heard of an overlord using a sword?"
Jiang Sibai said: "That's when I saw that he always liked to rely on his strength to fight but could not learn the subtleties of swordsmanship, so I made him a long spear and a strong bow as his weapons for fighting on the battlefield."
Bu Yuan's face instantly turned pale, and he murmured: "No wonder, no wonder you want to destroy this city, why?"
He suddenly looked at Jiang Sibai and asked in confusion: "Why do you want to destroy all this beauty?!"
Bu Zhi wanted to speak but stopped.
Jiang Sibai seemed to have heard something very interesting.
He suddenly waved his hand and knocked the scabbard in his hand lightly, knocking open the wall panel on the side of the window of this elegant room.
The wall panel that blocked half of the view fell and was blown into the rushing river by a gust of wind.
At this moment, Jiang Sibai pointed towards the incoming wind and said, "Do you think this is also beautiful?"
He was pointing to the slum area next to the port outside the city.
This is obviously not a 'beautiful view', as the Fragrance Man Building deliberately blocked this direction with wall panels.
Bu Yuan looked over there and hesitated to speak.
Jiang Sibai had already said: "Perhaps you think they are just a bunch of untouchables and not worthy of the law, right?"
At this time, Bu Zhi sighed and said: "Even so, King Zhou can just suppress the big clan appropriately. Why should he use such cruel methods to force the whole world to oppose him?"
Jiang Sibai shook his head and said: "If you take land and people from the rich clans after you gain the world, it will only make the world that was finally calmed down again turbulent."
"It's better to take one step now and start everything from scratch."
At this time, Bu Yuan could no longer understand their conversation, but Bu Zhi stood up and asked, "But what can we do even so?"
"New aristocratic families will always be born, from those meritorious ministers of your Great Zhou Dynasty."
"Even if King Gongsun can dominate the current generation, what about his descendants?"
Buzhi said seriously: "I always feel that doing things like this is by no means the final solution to the problem."
Jiang Sibai shook his head and said: "He can solve contemporary problems, which is already a meritorious deed."
"Besides, do you think Peishui City is safe now?"
Bu Zhi was stunned. He obviously didn't expect that Jiang Sibai would suddenly change the topic in this direction.
At this moment, they saw a commotion over there.
The mud-legged people in their eyes gathered at the port, and the crowd gradually became angry.
"What are they going to do?" Bu Yuan couldn't help but ask.
Jiang Sibai glanced there, and then said: "The child was sick. The mother wanted to take the child to the city for treatment, but her head was broken and she was thrown out together with the young child who had a high fever."
"Look, the wealthy people in this city don't treat them as human beings. They want to be their own people."
The faces of the Bu family and his son suddenly became extremely ugly, because this place is very close to the port, and if something happens, they will definitely be affected.
What's more, they still have their families on the boat in the port!
