Stasis Field

Through an online shopping platform, Chen Xi quickly placed an order for two grape seedlings and a packet of grape seeds.

The variety he chose was Cabernet Sauvignon, specifically for winemaking, a mainstream grape variety for wine production even in the 3K era.

Although there are other, better varieties, Cabernet Sauvignon is the most common and mainstream winemaking grape, even hailed as the "king of red grape varieties."

It boasts not only well-established cultivation techniques but also highly mature winemaking processes.

Even ordinary people can DIY at home and produce decent-quality wine.

Chen Xi had tried making wine from purchased grapes before, and the finished product had excellent color, flavor, and taste. Although it couldn't compare to store-bought wine, it had its own unique charm.

This type of grape has a thick skin and little pulp, so it doesn't taste great to eat, but it's perfect for winemaking and is the main ingredient in red wine.

The seller shipped quickly, and Chen Xi received the grape seedlings and seeds, still wrapped in soil, in just two days.

He bought the seeds along with the seedlings as a backup, worried that the seedlings might not survive the transportation process or might not adapt to the soil and water of the 40K world.

These days, online shopping services are excellent. The seller not only sent Chen Xi the goods he ordered but also included a planting guide and a winemaking guide.

This would undoubtedly help Chen Xi greatly in planting these grapes on Rostov II and then using the harvested grapes to make wine.

As for whether Rostov II is suitable for growing grapes, Chen Xi's current judgment is that it is basically suitable.

Grape cultivation requires well-drained sandy loam or gravelly soil, as well as a warm and dry growing environment. Relatively speaking, relatively dry terrains such as deserts and Gobi are very suitable for planting.

Of course, if you really want to grow grapes in the Gobi or desert, the problems of irrigation and fertilizer must also be solved.

But these two problems are not problems for either the 3K era or the 40K era.

Oh, no! It may really be a problem in the 40K era because Rostov II is a desert planet.

Although it has been developed for more than 70 years, fertilizer may really be a problem!

Chen Xi frowned when he thought of this, but then relaxed his brow.

It wasn't that he had thought of a solution, but that he realized that he didn't need to solve this problem, but could hand it over to Ovilia.

As a dignified Adeptus Mechanicus Bio-Sage, Chen Xi didn't believe that she couldn't solve such a small problem, especially since she was researching how to transform a Desert World into a Paradise World.

After borrowing the supermarket owner's trolley again to bring everything home, Chen Xi suddenly ran into a problem.

It was easy to bring the things over. The grape seeds and grape seedlings were all things he could carry, so bringing them to the 40k world was certainly not a problem.

But... how was he going to explain how he got these things?

He had already explained that even ordinary alien fruits were extremely expensive in the 40k era, and these fresh grape seedlings and seeds were even more precious. Bringing them over like this would probably arouse great suspicion.

Although Chen Xi's pawn was an Inquisitor of the Inquisition, that didn't mean that no one would suspect him.

After thinking seriously, Chen Xi decided to ask the Servo-skull if he could exchange for some useful things.

"Is there a Stasis Field container for exchange in the exchange list?" The first thing Chen Xi thought of was this, the invincible Stasis Field.

From Big E and Guilliman to the leftovers from yesterday's breakfast, you can put anything in a Stasis Field to keep it fresh, and it won't spoil even after ten thousand years!

Stasis Field Box, requires 5 points. Do you want to exchange?

The Servo-skull showed Chen Xi what he wanted to exchange and confirmed with him.

Chen Xi measured the size of the box and, finding it satisfactory, allowed the Servo-skull to make the exchange. A large, pristine box then landed squarely on Chen Xi's floor.

"Damn it! My solid wood floor! Guttering Big E, the downstairs neighbors are going to yell!" Chen Xi cursed and quickly rushed to the ground to check the floor.

Fortunately, although the Stasis Field box was heavy, it didn't leave any obvious marks on the wooden floor, only a slight groove that wasn't noticeable unless you looked closely.

However, despite the small interlude, Chen Xi successfully removed the plastic wrapping from the two grape seedlings he had bought and placed them in the Stasis Field box. He also unpacked the seeds, put them in a small bottle, and put them in as well.

Finally, Chen Xi somehow pulled out the planting guide and winemaking guide and handed them to the Servo-skull: "Translate them into High Gothic and then transcribe them onto parchment."

Installing a transcription module requires 1 point. Blessed parchment is 1 point per roll.

Hearing the Servo-skull's answer, Chen Xi scratched his eyebrows and chose to exchange without hesitation.

A transcription component was immediately added to the Servo-skull in front of him, and a roll of parchment appeared. Chen Xi glanced at it, saw that it was indeed a large roll, and felt that his points were not spent in vain.

The Servo-skull scanned the information in his hand and then began to transcribe it. It quickly completed the transcription of the two documents and handed them to Chen Xi after carefully sealing them with wax.

Chen Xi took the transcribed parchment without opening it and threw it directly into the Stasis Field box.

Then, he picked up the entire Stasis Field box and put it into the box he used for traveling.

As the Stasis Field box sank into the golden dust at the bottom of the travel box, Chen Xi saw the dust in the box construct the situation of his pawn at this time.

The Inquisitor pawn was in a place similar to an office, while the Sisters of Battle and Kasrkin were in the lounges on both sides of the office.

It seemed that the Planetary Governor was working in the office.

Chen Xi did not personally possess the pawn but instead sent the Stasis Field box containing the grape seedlings and seeds to the Inquisitor pawn and then conveyed the order to hand over the seedlings and seeds inside to Magos Ovilia.

The pawn, upon receiving the order, did not hesitate to summon the Sisters of Battle squad and ordered them to escort the Stasis Field box to Magos Ovilia's forge in the city.

The Sisters of Battle squad immediately set off after taking the box.

According to the information displayed by the golden dust in the box, the Sisters of Battle squad would arrive at Magos Ovilia's workshop in two hours.

After doing all this, Chen Xi nodded in satisfaction and then came to the shelf where he placed his pawns and began to think about the question he had thought of before: whether he should train the Sisters of Battle on Rostov II.
