He gave Maria a hearty thumbs up. “Miss Clark, your intellect is truly remarkable. After your explanation, I think I
can understand Sanshin.”
Turning his attention back to the sprouting seedling, he inquired, “Are you certain this is the mother of Pu’er?”
Maria’s nod was firm. “Absolutely. Her aura aligns perfectly with the mother of Pu’er’s. Coupled with recent
