Red Clay Technical Services: Mercenaries, Magicians, and Marketing
Bobby likes Pabst Blue Ribbon, NASCAR races, and throwing fireballs. A through and through Georgia boy, raised down in the sticks but now working with all things mystic.
He is, in other words, a magician. Not just any magician- but one bound by the most egregious of terms: business contracts. See, a long time ago, Bobby got himself involved with a dragon whose business was making magicians, and Bobby wanted magic to be his business. Both of them having common interest, Bobby agreed to sign over his services in exchange for phenomenal (draconic) magic. A pretty awesome deal, right? The contract put him at the top percentage of human magicians, on top of having the backing of a dragon patron, and a fantastic set of benefits befitting an esteemed contractor, so it'd be smooth sailing from then on, right?
Not so. That kind of power isn't granted without strings attached, and Bobby's practically bound up in them. Following the esoteric laws set forth by magicians , juggling them with the mortal interests he still has to abide by, and finding himself at the beck and call of a fickle and opaque patron makes his life as a magician a rollercoaster of ups and downs.
But when his patron sets him on a strange task- with stranger company, no less, even Bobby has to question what his mission really is. Delving into fantastic crimes and cracking open mysteries is just the least he can do, and he'll do it with the help of his gun, his wand, and his trusted allies both large and small.

In this mysterious and comedic novel, the main character is a teenage boy who finds himself reincarnated as a ceramic doll by a self-proclaimed "necromancer" in an unknown village in an unknown time and place. As a doll, he is unable to see, hear, or speak, but he is able to sense the spiritual presence of those around him.
The boy is unaware of his new situation until the necromancer appears and boasts about her supposed greatness, despite her uselessness to society. With no other options for survival, the boy must find a way to sustain himself. As a non-living creature, he relies on a life source to survive. The necromancer cannot provide enough, so he must use the life source surrounding him.
The life source is mainly derived from human emotions, scattered throughout civilization. The density of the source varies from place to place, and when it is too high, it can cause unusual events such as the creation of new identities, either physical or spiritual. These identities hold certain powers based on what they represent, and the usage of this outer source is known as magic.
As the boy navigates through his new life as a doll, he must rely on his wits and his ability to sense the life source around him to survive each day. With a mysterious and comedic voice, this novel follows the boy's journey as he tries to make sense of his strange new existence and overcome the challenges that come his way.

There were several advantages of the mud grinding process in the production of the purple clay teapot. First of all, the mud grinding process could improve the smoothness and malleability of the mud strips, allowing the various components of the raw materials to be evenly mixed to form fine and tough mud strips, which was convenient for subsequent processes such as drawing and molding. Secondly, during the mud grinding process, the uniform mixing of the mud could make the mud compact, thus ensuring the firmness of the pot body and avoiding cracking and distortion of the finished product. In addition, the mud grinding process could also improve the air tightness of the purple clay teapot, ensuring that the teapot body was tight and seamless, achieving the key step of good air tightness. The mud grinding process not only gave the purple clay teapot a unique artistic charm, but also increased the value and ornamental value of the purple clay teapot.

There was no clear answer to the best clay in the purple clay teapot. Different clay materials had their own characteristics and advantages. Purple clay was one of the most common clay materials. It had good breathability and heat resistance, and was suitable for making various types of purple clay pots. Red mud and green mud were also common mud materials. They were suitable for brewing tea leaves with a lighter fragrance and making special purple clay pots. Mud materials such as bottom groove green and Benshan green were paid attention to because of their fine texture and patina effect. Each clay had its own unique charm, complementing each other and enriching the possibilities of the purple clay teapot. Therefore, when choosing the mud, it was necessary to choose according to personal needs and preferences, and pay attention to the stability of the mud. In addition, the production process and technique were also important factors that affected the quality and effect of the pot.
The clay clay teapot was suitable for brewing green tea, Tieguanyin tea, oolong tea, black tea, cooked tea, and aged tea. Green tea was suitable to be brewed in a clay clay teapot because the clay clay teapot was light and suitable for brewing green tea. Tieguanyin tea could be brewed using a high body tube (such as a well column) of a clay teapot, while raw oolong tea was suitable for the light roasted oolong tea series. Black tea leaves were also suitable to use the purple clay teapot because the purple clay was loose and could absorb the bad taste of black tea leaves. At the same time, the high pot shape also had the effect of stifling bubbles. Cooked Pu 'er tea was also suitable for using the clay clay teapot, but it was necessary to pay attention to the fact that the color of the tea was too strong, which might cause the clay to spit out black. Finally, the aged tea was suitable to use the clay clay teapot, which was light yellow in color and could restore the inner content and original taste of the aged tea.
The significance of the candy cane in this story is multi - faceted. Firstly, its shape is like a shepherd's tool, which ties in with Jesus being the shepherd of his flock. Secondly, the color white is for His spotless and pure nature. And the red stripes are a vivid reminder of the sacrifice He made when His blood was shed on the cross. So, the candy cane serves as a physical reminder of these important aspects of Jesus' story during the Christmas season.
Da Hong Pao clay and Zhu clay were both commonly used clay materials in the production of purple clay pots. They each had their own characteristics. Da Hong Pao clay and Zhu clay were different in terms of color, texture, and quality of tea. The color of the Da Hong Pao clay was deep red and bright. After the pot was fired, it had the characteristics of ruddy. The quality of the tea was better, and it could better absorb the fragrance and taste of the tea. The color of the vermilion clay was reddish with a hint of yellow. After burning, the pot had an orange-red hue, and the color of the tea was darker. In addition, the texture of the Da Hong Pao clay was fine and smooth, and it felt solid and heavy. On the other hand, the surface of the Vermilion Clay might have slight wrinkles and contraction marks. Overall, Da Hong Pao clay was better in terms of color, texture, and tea quality.
