The Card Apprentice

This is both a work of science fiction and an exploration of the meaning of life, love, literature and art. Brainpower is no longer the main ingredient for being human in this far distant future world. Spirituality, physical balance, and diligence all come together as integrity for Chen Mu, the Card Apprentice. The cards which Chen Mu masters in his own scrappy way, distill all the powers of the cosmos – human and nonhuman – into something that is not a book, not technology, and neither art nor magic, but is these and more. Learn about these strange cards, which can embody everything you might imagine for the future of technology, but also a future beyond technology which promotes the best, and sometimes the worst, from mankind’s past.

Chen Mu was overjoyed to watch the amount of liquid extract in the reagent bottles continually increase. Xi Ping connected with a big seller for the extracts, so they weren't going to have any trouble with sales down the road.

In his investigations, Xi Ping had discovered only two establishments in the Pascal Region that could produce the purple and the blue extract of fluorescent purple. But it couldn't compare with the quality of that produced in the snow silkworm ravine. They couldn't even produce the other few rarer extracts. Only a few in the Heavenly Drum Village District could produce the best among them, the red extract of fluorescent purple.

The reason Stinger had so respected Xi Ping was mainly because the red extract was included.
