Features: The original edition quickly sold out and received positive reviews. However, the author still felt it should be appropriately revised. Some viewpoints were adjusted, and additional content was added. Considering the legislative status of the Property Law, the sections on mortgage, pledge, and retention were removed, to be presented to readers as a dedicated work in the future. When writing this book, the author strived to reflect profound truths in concise language, firmly believing in the maxim "Simplicity is the ultimate sophistication." To minimize words, the author even omitted a preface in the original edition. Contract law is a legal rule system with justice as its highest value goal and principle-based norms as its skeleton. A contract is a transaction relationship established by the parties through their own will. The sum of all contracts constitutes the market. Contract law is the basic law that regulates market relationships. Contract law is known as the law with market characteristics.
