Jiang An has enough materials to upgrade to level 3 crafting table, but unfortunately he hasn't had time to upgrade it.

[Ding! Upgrade your crafting table by spending 100 iron and 10 copper?]

"yes."

[Ding! Upgrade successful. Current level: Level 3 Crafting Table.]

At the same time, the remaining drawings were also lit up.

Jiang An obtained many blueprints on the island, but unfortunately only a few were usable. The rest required upgrading the crafting station, such as two weapon blueprints.

[Should I spend 10 iron and 8 copper to craft a Tang sword?]

"yes."

Immediately afterwards, Jiang An made 10 more Tang swords and put them up for sale on the trading channel.

Priced at 1000 wood blocks, with a note that special items or blueprints are available upon request via private message.

While she was busy, she didn't forget to turn on the light screen.

"How's everyone's haul with this wave of supplies?" someone asked in the regional chat.

"Brother, the seawater is too cold. They didn't even go into the sea to retrieve it. They just used a net to retrieve a wooden box," a female player said aggrievedly.

"Coward, how many can you catch with a net? The stone chest is the most important thing," one player mocked.

"Damn, it's so cold, it hasn't warmed up yet," someone else complained.

"Selling handmade fishing nets. No need to go into the sea to retrieve large quantities of resources. The best choice for finding treasure chests. DM me if interested." Suddenly, a player posted an advertisement.

"Wow, that's amazing! You can even weave fishing nets!" the other players exclaimed in amazement.

"It's just a family tradition, nothing to brag about," the player selling fishing nets replied modestly.

...

Jiang An was full of admiration when he saw that some players were selling fishing nets. He thought to himself, "There are really some experts among ordinary people!"

After the first player sold the fishing net, messages to buy the fishing net appeared one after another in the area channel.

However, due to differences in the skill levels of the players, the quality of the fishing nets sold varies.

Before long, a war of words broke out on the regional channels.

After all, there is no shortage of clever people in the world, and some players couldn't help but have wicked ideas.

"Damn it, Sun Qian, you swindler, what did you sell me? A fishing net? You just wait!"

"Everyone should be cautious when buying homemade fishing nets."

"Damn it, I've been scammed too, you liar."

... ...

As the rain continued to fall and the weather grew colder, Jiang An realized that he could no longer go out soaking wet to search for treasure chests every time supplies arrived, just like before.

This not only requires frequent changes of clothes, but also takes a lot of time to wait for the body to warm up, which is a huge waste of time.

Although coming to this sea survival game has greatly improved my physical fitness, I will definitely get sick in the long run.

However, the quality of the fishing nets is not guaranteed, and several reliable orders are already fully booked.

After some thought, Jiang An realized that directly purchasing fishing nets made by players might carry the risk of quality issues.

So she decided not to waste too much time trying this method.

Returning to the trading channel, Jiang An carefully selected various warm items and communicated with the sellers.

Ultimately, she found some reasonably priced and reliable warm clothing and successfully completed the transaction using the materials.

As for retrieving the treasure chest, she had just had a flash of inspiration and had already come up with a good idea.

There is a special item that might be of help.

That was obtained on the island—the basic water-repelling bead.

It allows you to breathe freely underwater for an hour, with a 1-hour cooling-off period. Its literal meaning is also understandable: it is water-repellent.

Thinking of this, Jiang An couldn't wait to put it into practice.

She opened the storage box, found the water-repellent beads, changed into her raincoat, and hurriedly ran out, ignoring her still-damp hair.

Reaching the edge of the raft and looking out at the sea, Jiang An took a deep breath and then put the hand holding the water-repelling bead into the seawater.

Just as she expected, the water-repelling bead acted like a transparent bubble, firmly locking her hand out of the seawater.

Feeling the warmth emanating from the water-repelling bead, Jiang An was overjoyed. She discovered that she could not only breathe freely underwater, but also felt no coldness or icy chill from the seawater.

This discovery thrilled Jiang An; she felt she had found a new way to retrieve treasure chests.

She excitedly returned to her room and took off her raincoat.

She rummaged through the junk box and found a piece of cloth. She sewed and patched it up, making herself a simple purse.

Seal the opening, tie the ropes that were deliberately left at both ends, and hang it around your neck.

The basic water-repelling bead was small, like a pearl. Jiang An sewed a small pouch around its neck, and it didn't get in the way at all.

Jiang An touched the water-repelling bead on her neck, quite satisfied.
