Warhammer 40K in a box

Chapter 12 Stasis Field
Through the online shopping platform, Chen Xi quickly placed an order for two grape seedlings and a bag of grape seeds.

The variety he chose was Cabernet Sauvignon grapes, which were specifically used for winemaking and were also the mainstream winemaking grapes in the 3K era.

Although there are other better varieties, Cabernet Sauvignon is the most common and mainstream wine grape variety, and is even known as the king of red grape varieties.

Not only does it have perfect planting technology, it also has quite mature brewing technology.

Even ordinary people can make good quality wine by DIY at home.

Chen Xi had tried making wine with purchased grapes before, and the finished product was very good in color, taste and mouthfeel. Although it could not be compared with purchased wine, it had its own unique flavor.

This type of grape has thick skin and little flesh, so it does not taste very good, but it is very suitable for making wine and is the main raw material for making red wine.

The merchant shipped the goods very quickly, and Chen Xi only waited two days before receiving the grape seedlings and grape seeds still wrapped in soil.

The reason why Chen Xi bought the seeds together was that he was worried that the grape seedlings might not survive during transportation, and whether they could adapt to the water and soil in 40K.

The service for online shopping products is very good these days. The merchant not only sent the goods that Chen Xi wanted, but also included a planting guide and a winemaking guide.

This will undoubtedly help Chen Xi to grow this kind of grape on the Rostov II and then use the harvested grapes to make wine.

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

Grape cultivation requires sandy loam or gravel soil with good drainage, as well as a warm and dry growing environment. 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 Desert, irrigation and fertilizer issues must also be addressed.

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

Oh, no! This might actually 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 still be a problem!

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

It’s not that he thought of a solution, but he realized that this matter did not need to be solved by him, but could be handed over to Olivia.

As a biological sage of the Mechanicus, Chen Xi didn't believe that she couldn't solve such a small problem, especially since she was studying how to transform a desert world into a paradise world.

After borrowing a trolley from the supermarket owner again to take all the things home, Chen Xi suddenly ran into trouble again.

It was easy to bring things over. Grape seeds and grape seedlings were 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?

As explained before, in the 40k era, even ordinary alien fruits are extremely expensive, and these fresh grape seedlings and seeds are even more precious. If you just take them away like this, it will probably arouse huge suspicion.

Although the chess piece Chen Xi used was the Inquisitor of the Tribunal, being an Inquisitor did not mean that no one would doubt him.

After careful consideration, Chen Xi decided to ask the Servo Skull if he could exchange it for something useful. "Is there a Stasis Field Container on the exchange list?" This was the first thing Chen Xi thought of: the invincible Stasis Field.

From the Emperor and Guilliman to yesterday's leftover breakfast, you can stuff them into the stasis field to keep them fresh, and they won't go bad even after ten thousand years!

"The stasis field box requires 5 points. Would you like to exchange it?" The servo skull showed Chen Xi what he wanted to exchange and confirmed it with him.

Chen Xi measured the size of the box and after finding that there was no problem, he asked the servo skull to exchange it. Then a large box fell heavily on the floor of Chen Xi's house.

"Fuck! My solid wood floor! That old man Huang is going to curse downstairs!" Chen Xi cursed, then quickly jumped to the ground to check the floor.

Fortunately, although the stasis force field box is quite heavy, it did not leave any obvious marks on the wooden floor. There is only a subtle groove that cannot be seen without careful observation.

However, despite a minor incident, Chen Xi successfully removed the plastic wrapping of the two grape seedlings he bought and placed them in the stasis force field box. He also removed the packaging of the seeds and found a small bottle to put them in.

Finally, Chen Xi somehow pulled out the planting and winemaking guides and handed them to the servo skull. "Translate them into High Gothic and copy them onto parchment."

"Installing the copying module requires 1 point, and each roll of blessed parchment costs 1 point."

Hearing the answer from the Servo Skull, Chen Xi scratched his eyebrows and chose to exchange without hesitation.

A set of copying components suddenly appeared on the servo skull in front of him, and then a roll of parchment appeared. Chen Xi took a look and saw that it was indeed a very large roll. Only then did he feel that his points were not wasted.

The servo skull scanned the information in his hand, and then began to copy it. He quickly finished copying the two copies of the information, and then sealed them with wax before handing them to Chen Xi.

After taking the copied parchment, Chen Xi did not open it to read it, but threw it directly into the stasis force field box.

Then, he picked up the entire stasis field box and put it into the box used for crossing.

As the stasis force field box sank into the golden sand that passed through the bottom of the box, Chen Xi saw that the sand in the box constructed the situation where he had placed the chess piece at this moment.

The Inquisitor's pawn was staying in a place similar to an office, while the Battle Sister and Kashejin were staying in the lounges on both sides of the office.

It looked like the planetary governor was working in his office.

Chen Xi did not possess the chess piece himself, but instead delivered the stasis force field box containing the grape seedlings and seeds to the Inquisitor chess piece, and then conveyed the order to hand over the seedlings and seeds inside to Sage Olivia.

The chess piece that received the order did not hesitate and called the battle nun team to escort the stasis force field box to the forging workshop of Sage Olivia in the city.

The team of combat nuns also set off immediately after picking up the boxes.

According to the information displayed by the golden dust in the box, the Battle Sisters team will arrive at Sage Olivia's workshop in two hours.

After finishing all this, Chen Xi nodded in satisfaction, then came to the shelf where he placed the chess pieces and began to think about the question he had thought of before, whether he should train combat nuns on the Rostov II.
