With the frequent exchange between the East and the West, a wave of Western learning gradually emerged over the past hundred years. This Western learning included ideas and habits from the Western Continent.
Auctions were one of the things brought over from the West. The rules were simple. The price of the auctioned items was not fixed, and the item would be awarded to the highest bidder. There must be more than two bidders in this auction for a competitive environment.
In fact, the East also had similar biddings in the past, but they were not systematic. After the maritime merchants introduced this set of bidding rules from the West, it became widespread. The black market, led by the Seven Treasure Pavilion, was particularly fond of bidding for items. Qi Xuansu once participated in it when he was traveling around the world, but because he did not have much money, he did not win any bids.
There was a saying that correcting deviations required extreme measures. Back in the Jin Dynasty, the emperor did not want the regional governors of the previous Qi Dynasty to hold too much power. Thus, they consistently suppressed the generals.
