The Auction

The auction was held in a venue temporarily constructed on the largest square in Yanwu. Although it would be used only for a very short time, the materials were all transported from Firecrow Empire, and their specifications were much stricter than those of regular buildings.

The construction had begun even before the trade fair started. In just seven days, a magnificent auction hall was built, which took the shape of an unfolded fan, enough to accommodate ten thousand people. Many separated rooms for distinguished guests were ready on the second floor, waiting to serve those with high status.

Before the auction, all the aristocratic families of Firecrow Empire would receive a detailed list of the auction items. Many of these families would send representatives, such as their stewards, to bid for the items they wanted. So, even though the venue was large, it would be packed when all the invited people had arrived.
