I Created A Wealthy Island By Fishing - Chapter 29
Chapter 29 Drifting Bottle
Guo Li calmly analyzed the list of treasures. There were too many treasures in the mysterious shop, and it was too much for him to take in. However, he did not have enough money, so he could only browse through the cheaper options in search for a suitable item.
Modern technological weapons such as nuclear-powered aircraft carriers were indeed good, but they were too prohibitively expensive. Guo Li could not afford such things at all. Lacking money, he could only look at the ship and sigh.
On the other hand, the elemental magic crossbow and the statue of the goddess of the sea were the most cost-effective items given Guo Li’s current situation. These two pieces of magical equipment were what Guo Li needed most at the moment.
The prices for these two were not prohibitively expensive. However, if he bought these two treasures, he would use up a good chunk of the money he had on hand.
“I’ll buy these two then. It’s a good deal and they suit my current situation!”
Guo Li hated the fact that he did not have more money. He did not know that some experienced players had been lucky enough to run into the mysterious shop and could only drool at the sight of these items. They were poorer than he was and could not afford even a single treasure.
Guo Li’s wealth was like that of a nouveau riche among the experienced players.
He chose to buy the (elemental magic crossbow] and [goddess of the sea statue). After he clicked (confirm), the two treasures were delivered to Guo Li in an instant.
The elemental magic crossbow was a palm-sized crossbow. It looked small, but the workmanship was extremely exquisite. Every detail and pattern was intricate and striking.
The goddess of the sea statue was even more lifelike. It was a palm-sized statue of a mermaid goddess. The edges of her skirt were even shaped like waves.
[The host simply needs to place these treasures in the desired locations on your island, after which these two treasures will automatically return to their original size.]
(Note: The location of the statue of the sea goddess must be carefully decided. It cannot be moved once placed!)
After reading the system’s description, Guo Li understood how to use these treasures. It turned out that the two treasures in his hands had yet to be activated. For convenience’s sake, they were palm-sized.
After looking at it for a while, Guo Li was pleasantly surprised to find that the sea goddess statue was a treasure that could be upgraded. After upgrading it, it would be able to summon water elemental guards to protect the island.
“Awesome!”
Guo Li yelled and installed the elemental magic crossbow on the fishing boat. The chance of encountering danger while out at sea was very high.An offensive treasure that could deter potential threats from the sea would also greatly increase the safety of Guo Li and the others!
(Do you want to install the elemental magic crossbow on the fishing boat?]
“Install!”
At the bow of the fishing boat, Guo Li chose to install the elemental magic crossbow. After a flash of light, the elemental magic crossbow expanded. Atop the fishing boat was now a magic crossbow, and one could sense the water element gathering around the boat.
A pale blue halo faintly enveloped the entire fishing boat. The huge crossbow arrow flickered with a cold light. Vaguely, ice crystals could be seen falling from the magic crossbow.
Cailer and the sailors had never seen such gorgeous-looking equipment before. They examined it in awe and astonishment.
Guo Li circled the elemental magic crossbow twice and lightly touched the arrow. It felt slightly cool in a refreshing way. With the protection of such a magic weapon, Guo Li’s trip to the ocean this time would become much safer.
Cai Er walked over to the magic crossbow and touched it as well. She exclaimed, “If I had such a crossbow to protect me, the barbarians wouldn’t have been able to force me to abandon my island and escape.”

There was a trace of resentment in her eyes as she spoke. After all, she had personally developed her island, and it was now being occupied by a group of barbarians.
However, on second thought, Cai Er leaned into Guo Li’s arms and said in a low voice, “Fortunately, I met you. Otherwise, I might have lost my life drifting about at sea.”
Guo Li patted Cai Er’s back and said, “Don’t be too sad. Those barbarians will be eliminated sooner or later.”
Cai Er just nodded quietly. Cai Er preferred to be with Guo Li rather than manage her own island. His chest was strong and powerful, and he made her feel extremely safe.
Guo Li looked at the situation in the surrounding sea and asked Captain Jack to continue moving forward.
The unruly man with the pipe took another look at the magic crossbow. The magical elemental fluctuations emitted by the crossbow made the people inside the boat feel an indescribable sense of peace.
It seemed that, as long as the magic crossbow was around, all the threats in the sea would turn into ashes and be crushed in the face of the magic crossbow.
The fishing boat continued moving forward, and the speed of the vessel increased. With the magic elements released by the magic crossbow, the sea breeze even became much gentler.
Captain Jack boldly steered the fishing boat, riding the wind and breaking the waves, as it sped away into the distance.
Guo Li started fishing again. Last time, he had caught the mysterious shop. This time, he might even be able to catch even better treasures.
Thinking of the mysterious shop, Guo Li felt his heart ache. All of his wealth had been spent at the mysterious shop. Fortunately, he had bought a weapon that he liked which could protect the safety of the fishing boat.
Splash!
He pulled the fishing rod back, and a fat sea bass was caught at the end of the line. After it was pulled onto the deck, Guo Li ordered a sailor to store the sea bass away. He would be able to make a pot of fat fish soup with it later.
As he continued fishing, more fish were caught and pulled onto the deck. There was even bluefin tuna, a top-notch sashimi ingredient. This fish did not require complicated cooking methods. It only needed a little soy sauce and wasabi, after which they would be able to taste one of the ocean’s best delicacies.
Bluefin tuna could not be simply stored. After it came out of the water, it needed to be quickly frozen with ice. Fortunately, the fishing boat had been modified by the calabash brothers before it went out to sea. There was a cold storage area that could store bluefin tuna.
Cai Er excitedly said to Guo Li, “Guo Li, bluefin tuna is one of the best ingredients in the real world. I can’t believe that we have the chance to taste such delicious food.”
Guo Li smiled and nodded. The game world was full of endless possibilities and opportunities. This motivated him to no end, and drove him to become even stronger.
“A fish has taken the bait!”
Guo Li felt the fishing rod tremble. The thing he caught this time was not very heavy, as it did not resist the pull of the fishing rod. Guo Li immediately reeled it in.
When the object on the fishing hook revealed itself, Guo Li realized that it was actually a drifting bottle.
“It’s a drifting bottle.”
Guo Li took the bottle off the fishing hook. He saw a rolled up piece of paper inside the transparent bottle. He quickly opened the tightly-secured cork and took out the paper.
After seeing the handwriting on the paper, Cai Er, who was beside him, said in surprise, “Guo Li, that’s my sister’s handwriting!”
