Conferred Gods: Reborn Yang Jian, racing all the way

Chapter 21 Strategies for Governing the Country
In the next few days, Lin Bufan did not realize Di Xin's true identity.

He basically regards this place as a temporary inn. When he has nothing to do during the day, he will still go out and tell stories.

After all, quotation points still have to be earned. Cooperation is cooperation. These are two different things. There is no conflict between the two.

But today, when Lin Bufan wanted to go out as usual, he was stopped by Di Xin.

"Sir, wait a minute. Today I held a cultural gathering and invited many talented people to come. I wonder if you can attend, sir?"

Di Xin saluted Lin Bufan very politely, and then said in a tactful tone.

When Lin Bufan heard this, he thought about it and thought that he hadn't done anything since he came here.

He has been fishing in the water, but now that the other party has something to ask for, it doesn't matter if he helps, so he nods and agrees.

"Okay, I also want to meet the cultural people of this big business."

"Sir, please."

When Di Xin saw that Lin Bufan had agreed, he took the initiative to lead the way. The two walked through a quiet corridor and arrived at a fairly spacious room.

At this time, there are many people sitting here, and they are all sitting on their knees. I have to mention here the habit of the ancestors.

The posture of kneeling is not exclusive to a certain island country, he just copied it and used it.

In this era, people's etiquette is like this, in formal occasions, whether it is eating or talking about serious business.

They will put a table in front of them and then sit down on their knees to show mutual respect.

Normally, no one would sit like this. After all, chairs and stools are really inexpensive.

However, this etiquette was gradually abolished in later generations. Probably by the Tang Dynasty, it had completely disappeared.

"Gentlemen, please be polite. This is my staff, Mr. Lin Bufan."

As soon as Di Xin came in, he introduced Lin Bufan to these intellectuals, as if he was afraid that they would look down on Lin Bufan.

However, regardless of whether Di Xinjie introduced these people or not, they still knew a little about Lin Bufan, but most of them were disdainful.

After all, in the eyes of these people, Lin Bufan was just a rogue storyteller. How could he be qualified to discuss national affairs with them in this elegant hall?
If it weren't for Di Xin's face, these people would have started making sarcastic remarks.

However, there were no stupid people present, although they looked down on Lin Bufan in their hearts.

But on the surface, he didn't show any particular hostility, just a little indifference.

But Lin Bufan didn't care about their thoughts and feelings, he sat down very naturally.

And he was not sitting on his knees, but sitting cross-legged, according to current etiquette.

Only when the teacher is facing the students can he sit cross-legged while others are kneeling.

In other words, Lin Bufan's behavior is basically announcing that everyone here is a younger brother and a disciple-level figure.

Of course, Lin Bufan himself was not aware of this at all, he didn't understand it at all.

When Di Xin saw this, he thought Lin Bufan wanted to intimidate everyone present, so he didn't care.

On the contrary, he admired Lin Bufan's courage very much. He felt that Lin Bufan, a newcomer, dared to challenge these old authorities. He was worthy of his fancy.

"Ahem, cough, cough, it seems that Mr. Lin Bufan is very confident. He must have some high opinions?"

Lin Bufan's attitude, which was almost a declaration of war, finally aroused the dissatisfaction of these literati.One of them, an older man with gray hair, was the first to speak out.

Although he had an amiable smile on his face, there was no smile in his eyes. He just stared at Lin Bufan with a fake smile.

Lin Bufan had just sat down and before he could realize what was going on, he was a little confused by being targeted like this.

And when he looked around, he found that the people around him looked at him with unkind eyes, as if they were unhappy with him, which made Lin Bufan even more strange.

He thought to himself, are all these old men taking gunpowder?Everyone is so angry, obviously he is just sitting here, not doing anything.

"Yes, the topic we are discussing today is how to better govern the country and what better system there is."

"Mr. Lin Bufan, since you are so confident, why don't you share your high opinion and open our eyes?"

When the remaining people saw that the most virtuous and respected senior had spoken, they all spoke in agreement, wanting to hear Lin Bufan's opinions.

This time, Lin Bufan really couldn't be punished. He didn't quite understand why he was being targeted.

But since these people want them to express their opinions and explain some reasons.

Lin Bufan sorted out his thoughts and found that if it was about the politics of this era, then he did have some good ideas.

In later feudal dynasties, all kinds of legal systems were much more perfect than now. Modern theory cannot say that these ancient ancestors could not accept it.

Therefore, in this age of conferring gods when the human emperor is in power and the imperial power is supreme, the most suitable thing to talk about is naturally the specific prototype of the feudal dynasty.

Lin Bufan felt that being idle was idle, so he might as well shock everyone present and transfer some quotations to him to make extra money.

Thinking of this, Lin Bufan stood up directly, with a confident smile on his face, looked around the crowd and said with a smile.

"Since that's what you gentlemen want to hear, I do have some insights."

These literati became even more disdainful when they heard that Lin Bufan was still swearing to say such things.

Originally, the expressions on their faces had been restrained before, but now they did not hide the contempt in their hearts at all.

The control on his expression was gradually relaxing, and Lin Bufan could clearly feel the disdainful glances around him.

However, Lin Bufan would not care about anything with these ancients. In Lin Bufan's view, they did not understand because they themselves were too backward.

After all, this era has just broken away from the form of primitive society, and it cannot even be counted as the prototype of a feudal dynasty.

The current Shang Dynasty is still in a slave society. It is still many years away from the real feudal dynasty, that is, after the Qin Dynasty unified the world.

So what Lin Bufan is going to talk about next is about the system of the Tang Dynasty.

This is one of the most glorious feudal dynasties in history, and its systems are also good. For these ancient ancestors, it can definitely be regarded as a dimensionality reduction blow.

Seeing the eyes around him that were still looking down on him, Lin Bufan cleared his throat and began to speak.

"In my opinion, if Dashang wants to truly become the most powerful country in the world, it can only implement one system, and that is a centralized system."

Lin Bufan's first words stunned everyone.

These literati looked at each other in confusion, not quite understanding what Lin Bufan meant by the centralized system.
