077 Wine Crisis

Half an hour later, Lawrence was leaning back on his chair in his room with a very comfortable movement. On the table in front of him, the book charm like a fog ball was flying around and busy on the table.

With.

I saw a tentacle stretched out from the open ink bottle that flew to the side and sucked 1/5 of the ink from the bottle. Then it retracted the tentacle and floated to a stack of clean white paper on the other side of the table.

Arriving above the white paper, Shu Mei quickly grew two tentacles also made of mist and wrapped them around the water-dipped pen, leaving only one nib outside. Then it quickly started writing on the white paper below. It continued writing while writing.

Praising Lawrence: "Master, your knowledge is indeed very profound. I have never seen anyone with so much knowledge like you before -"

"Okay, hurry up and write." Listening to these rough flatteries, Lawrence waved his hand to stop the book charm with some embarrassment. During his previous self-introduction, Lawrence discovered that this guy is not an ordinary weakling, except for a [Dizzy

[Magic] can be used other than combat, but other magic cannot be used on the battlefield.

However, Lawrence also discovered an advantage of the book charm from his self-introduction, that is, its intelligence is stronger than that of most humans. Although its intelligence is high and its magic reserve is too low, it cannot cast too much magic, but such a

Things like artificial intelligence still have a huge role for Lawrence now.

Through the soul link, Lawrence can transfer the knowledge in his mind to this book charm. Then the book charm can sort out this knowledge, and then control the pen to turn them into papers.

For example, right now, Lawrence is completing a new paper titled "On the Relationship between the Existence of Microorganisms and Corruption" with the help of Shu Mei. In fact, after the old paper was written last time, Lawrence planned to

This paper is continued, but in order to make the process of producing the paper more reasonable, Lawrence had to repeat Pasteur's gooseneck flask experiment.

While going to St. Gutenberg's Cathedral to select tasks during the day, Lawrence also went to Peter's dormitory to observe the two comparison gooseneck flasks entrusted to his care. It was obvious that the broth in the bottle had not been sterilized and sealed.

It has been severely spoiled, but the broth in the bottle that has been strictly sterilized and sealed is still the same as when it was put in.

In this world, high-temperature sterilization has been widely used in the food processing industry. However, everyone knows why heating is needed but does not know the reason. It can only be said that it is a method mastered after accumulating experience. And Lawrence's article

The paper explains to everyone the principle and significance of high-temperature disinfection.

Even with the help of Shu Mei, it was completely dark when he finished writing this paper. This forced him to give up the idea of ​​going to the church to submit his paper immediately.

Early the next morning, after having breakfast, Lawrence said hello to the two ladies and went straight to St. Gutenberg's Cathedral. Then he went around the logistics and found Priest Carter who was on duty in the office and submitted his paper.

.

"This paper is indeed very valuable." After reading the paper, Priest Carter said, "I will submit it to Science magazine as an outstanding paper selected by our Knowledge Church, and it should be published in the next issue.

"

"Science" magazine is also the top academic magazine in the Federation. In addition to the federal government, behind it are the Church of the Goddess of the Earth, the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture, the Church of Knowledge, the Church of Craftsmen, and even the Church of the God of Forging and Fire on the dwarf side.

Church support.

"You know, as the organizer of the magazine, we have a quota for one paper in each issue. But the problem is that not every time the magazine is released, we have good enough papers to submit." Put Lawrence's paper into a file

After placing them carefully on the bookshelf behind him, Priest Carter complained to Lawrence.

"The papers in these two issues of our church are not good at all compared to those selected by other churches. It is so shameful that when I go to the editorial office to submit papers, I have to lower my head as much as possible when I see priests from other churches.

Walk around them—"

Lawrence smiled helplessly as he listened to Priest Carter's ramblings. After all, the summary of various important discoveries and knowledge is not something that can just happen. Sometimes, in addition to hard work, a little bit of luck is needed.

After Priest Carter vented his emotions, Lawrence asked about a question he had just encountered: "By the way, Uncle Carter, why did our church's home-brew wine disappear when I first went to the logistics department?"

Lawrence originally planned to buy some wine after submitting his thesis today. After all, their store is for high-paying people, so they have to prepare a lot of slightly luxurious things, such as cigars and wines that are specialties from the Xingchen Sea area.

Wait for golden shredded tobacco, and then take some expensive wines. As a well-known specialty of the region, the wine produced by St. Gutenberg's Cathedral is a good purchase choice.

"Forget it, if you are unlucky, not to mention that the logistics office cannot buy wine, even I can only rely on the two bottles of wine I bought before to survive the whole year." When talking about wine, Priest Carter looked helpless.

"Although there is still a lot of wine stored in the church's wine cellar, in order to ensure that there is wine for the sacrifice, we have to stop selling it to the outside world."

"What's going on? What happened?" Lawrence asked in confusion after hearing Priest Carter say these words. "Why is the wine suddenly gone? I obviously bought one not long ago."

"The problem just happened in the past few days." Priest Carter explained. "You know, the wine in the church comes from the manor west of Eagle Castle. But just three days ago, there was unfortunate news from that manor:

This year, the grapes in the manor were infected with downy mildew. Although the Church of the Goddess of Agriculture near the manor sent people to deal with it, only a very small part of the grapevines could be saved."

"Later, after we contacted churches in other places, we discovered that there might have been too much rain this summer. Several states in the northeastern part of the federation that are the main grape-producing areas have all seen traces of downy mildew. This also means that it is not just us.

The wine production of the church and the entire federation is expected to have problems in the past few years."

"That sounds really bad." Lawrence sighed helplessly. This didn't sound like good news.

"Yeah, it's very bad. So the churches, the government, and the farmers are all trying to find ways to stop the situation from getting worse." After speaking, Priest Carter raised his head and looked at Lawrence. "By the way, your

The paper has been repeatedly promoting the role of various microorganisms, so the disease suffered by the grapevine is also related to microorganisms?"

"That should be it -" At this point, Lawrence suddenly had an idea. Priest Carter's words reminded him of some information about early pesticides that he found when he was looking up information for writing a novel in his previous life. "If I can go to the site.

If you do some research, you might be able to find a solution to the problem."

"Are you telling the truth?" After hearing what Lawrence said, Priest Carter stood up from behind the table in excitement.

"I can only say - it's possible." Lawrence didn't dare to say anything. After all, the world is different, and many things are not guaranteed to be exactly the same.

"Even if there is a slight possibility, it will be good." Priest Carter said in a compassionate tone, "Priests have already reported to us that some farmers in various grape plantations have begun to eradicate and burn the grapes that appear.

Diseased grapevines, but the worst thing is that doing so can only slow down the spread of grape downy mildew. At the same time, if too many grapevines are cut down, the impact on the industry is actually the same as the death of grapevines."

"I will do my best to solve this problem." After listening to Priest Carter's description of the bad situation, Lawrence nodded vigorously. "So, when can I set off?"

"The sooner the better." Priest Carter turned from behind the table to Lawrence and said. "I will accompany you to the logistics department now. You can borrow anything you need as long as it is available here."
