I Created A Wealthy Island By Fishing - Chapter 26

Chapter 26 Mineral-Rich Island

When the first rays of sunlight shone on his face in the morning, Guo Li slowly opened his eyes. He felt the sea breeze on his face and stretched his body. His sleepiness had completely dissipated.

“Coo coo… Coo coo… Coo coo…”

The cry of a seagull entered Guo Li’s ears. He stuck his head out of the tent and saw a seagull eyeing the leftovers by the bonfire. However, due to the bonfire and the watchful gaze of the saltwater crocodile, the seagull did not dare to try and snatch the food.

After Guo Li spotted it, he had a bold idea. He carefully got out of the hammock and picked up some of the leftover seafood. He then started communicating with the seagull in beast language.

As long as the seagull was willing to sign a contract with him, Guo Li would agree to give the seagull the leftover food. Moreover, it would be able to enjoy delicious food with Guo Li every day after that.

After the seagull heard Guo Li’s words, it tilted its head and spent some time thinking about it. Soon enough, it agreed to Guo Li’s request.

The seafood that was cooked was really delicious and something that it had never tasted before. Tempted by the prospect of more delicious food, the seagull gave in and signed a contract with Guo Li. From this moment on, Guo Li could now use the seagull’s abilities.

[Ding! Congratulations! The host can now use the seagull’s abilities. You have gained the following abilities: Dash… Long-range vision… Weather prediction… Vision sharing…)

The system notification made Guo Li raise his eyebrows. The abilities he had gained from contracting the seagull were simply too awesome!

(Dash) could instantly increase Guo Li’s speed, allowing it to reach an astonishing level.

[Long-range vision) would increase Guo Li’s range of vision for a short period of time, allowing him to see a few kilometers into the distance.

[Weather prediction] allowed him to detect changes in the weather ahead of time. On an island like this, being able to predict changes in the weather ahead of time and make preparations ahead of time was a very practical ability.

Cai Er, who had still been sleeping in the hammock, finally woke up. She spotted Guo Li standing on the beach, and slowly got out of the hammock, walking over and hugging Guo Li’s waist from behind. She buried her head into Guo Li’s broad back.

Guo Li held Cai Er’s hand. The two of them cuddled like that for a while. Cai Er took the initiative to prepare breakfast. As a qualified wife, the first thing she had to do was to take care of her husband’s clothes, food, and daily life.

Big Baby was now somewhat at a loss because of Cai Er. His usual work had been stolen by her. For a moment, he actually did not know what to do.

Cai Er used some rice to make a pot of seafood congee and cooked some oysters to nourish Guo Li’s body.

Cai Er’s cooking skills were not bad either. The seafood congee was moderately thick and tasted quite good. After eating one mouthful, Guo Li could taste the faint sweetness that the seafood added to the porridge, which whetted Guo Li’s appetite.

After eating and drinking his fill, Guo Li continued fishing. Yesterday’s fishing attempts did not even yield him a single treasure chest, which made Guo Li quite upset.

When they reached the reef again, Guo Li got straight down to business. Cai Er had nothing to do, so she asked Wukong to take her to the forest to pick some wild fruits for Guo Li.

After Cai Er left, Guo Li caught a gold treasure chest!

[Ding! Congratulations! The host has caught a gold treasure chest!)

Guo Li looked at the golden treasure chest and simply could not wait to see what kind of treasure was inside. A golden light erupted from the treasure chest, after which a building blueprint revealed itself.

This was a granary blueprint, which could be used to build a granary. It could store all of his harvested crops inside, and prevent them from being affected by moisture and insects.

Guo Li quickly finished reading the blueprint’s description. It was very practical. After the granary was built, it could store crops, and it would also increase the yield of corn, rice, and wheat.

Guo Li continued fishing. His luck today seemed pretty good. He continued fishing and found two more gold treasure chests. Inside these he found the (pasture] blueprint as well as the (dock] blueprint.

As Guo Li’s island was not a mineral-rich island, there were relatively few minerals. Armed with so many blueprints, Guo Li would definitely be able to develop the island to its fullest extent.

However, since he lacked minerals, Guo Li had to think of a way of procuring them so that he could use these blueprints.

If he were to buy them in the mall, it would be too expensive. The prices were too high, which made the entire venture unprofitable and unsuitable.

At this moment, Cai Er returned with Wukong. She brought over the washed wild fruit and some tea to Guo Li.

“Guo Li, drink some tea and eat some fruit.”

Guo Li smiled and said, “Cai Er is the best. You take such good care of me.”

Cai Er peeled a fruit and fed it to Guo Li. This wild fruit was particularly juicy. It was especially sweet and delicious and much better than some of the expensive fruits in the real world. There were also some wild lychees, which were also very sweet and juicy.

After eating a few fruits and taking a sip of tea, Guo Li felt extremely comfortable. Life was really great!

Cai Er wiped the juice from the corner of Guo Li’s mouth and said to him, “Guo Li, when I went to the forest to pick fruits just now, I noticed that there aren’t a lot of minerals on your island.”

Guo Li nodded and said, “Yes, the minerals on my island are indeed a little lacking. There honestly aren’t enough minerals to develop the island and construct the additional functional buildings.”

After hearing that, Cai Er hurriedly said, “While I was drifting on the sea, I noticed a small island with a lot of minerals. It drifted along with me for a period of time. It’s probably an ownerless island, so it’ll be constantly drifting about.”

Guo Li’s interest was instantly piqued. If there really was such an island, that would be great.

In the game of Everyone’s Island, there were often some drifting ownerless islands floating about. Whoever managed to get them would make a huge profit. Such islands were very hard to come by.

Guo Li immediately summoned the seagull and used [vision sharing). He asked it to check if there was a small island floating about in the surrounding sea region around the island.

As he was now viewing the island through the seagull’s perspective, Guo Li’s field of vision became even broader. It flew over the sea and saw that there was indeed a small island some distance away from his island.

There was no vegetation on the island, but there were a lot of mineral resources. There were huge ores, gold mines, iron mines, copper mines, and even some ores that could not be identified. There were also some small hills; those were all mines, shining with a metallic luster.

This small island was definitely an island with abnormally rich mineral resources. If he could get his hands on it, it would alleviate his island’s lack of minerals. This would also save him a lot of money.
