Lin Hu asked 1097 in confusion and learned that as long as this map was used, the raft would automatically navigate to that small island, which contained both supplies and mutated beasts.
Lin Hu put it away, planning to use the drawing after he finished his work in the next couple of days.

Then came a bunch of farmed animals...
By the time Lin Hu and Duan Linzhou finished unpacking, it was already 11 p.m., but Lin Hu was too excited to sleep.
I placed the perfect piece of land directly on the open ground to the left rear of the house and poured the nutrient solution directly onto it.
Linhu currently owns four plots of land, the largest of which is perfect; the others each occupy only a 2x2 grid of space on the raft. However, thanks to the nourishment from so much nutrient solution and spiritual spring water, their quality is close to perfect.
I took the newly opened corn seeds and cabbage seeds and planted them, and kept some to plant on the island along with the random seed.
Because the animals were noisy and smelly, Lin Hu extended and expanded the left side of the raft. Now the raft is 40x20 cm, and he built several breeding sheds on the left side to raise cattle, sheep, pigs and ducks.
The left side of the raft is now mostly used for aquaculture and planting, while the right side is quite empty, with only a grape trellis and a dining table.
Duan Linzhou gave some of the supplies he received to his parents and friends.
Lin Hu originally planned to give him half of the animals he was raising, but Duan Linzhou said that he didn't have a raft right now, so he would raise them together with his for the time being and that he would collect the feeding materials. Lin Hu agreed.
Duan Linzhou was unaware that Lin Hu had secretly hidden a pair of each item.
His island could be upgraded instantly by placing these items on it, and he wanted Duan Linzhou to go to sleep as soon as possible. Meanwhile, Duan Linzhou was still sitting in the living room checking the current situation of the trading market.
Lin Hu knew that he had many small nightlights on him, and he was just waiting to put them on the shelves after tonight.
The two didn't rest until midnight, while Lin Hu quietly got up at 2 a.m. to go to the toilet and teleport to the island.
Although he didn't mind Duan Linzhou knowing he had an island, he still planned to wait until the island was upgraded to level 5 before deciding whether to reveal it.
After Lin Hu finished upgrading, he found that the black mist had dissipated and a mountain had been revealed. At the foot of this mountain, there was a cave just like the previous one. The previous cave had been converted into a warehouse and there was still enough space. Lin Hu was too lazy to deal with this one for the time being. He would deal with it when the warehouse over there was full.
The most obvious change after the upgrade is that the growth cycle of all plants and animals has been shortened by more than ten hours.
Lin Hu noticed that there was still a faint mist in the newly opened mountain area. It was only after 1097 told him that it was a hot spring that he became interested.
Lin Hu: "Can I share some of this hot spring water with the raft?" Although there is a constant temperature system and hot water when taking a shower, it's not like having more or less of these features would be a waste.
[1097: Although the host is greedy, it's possible. The shop also sells hot spring pools, but they're not the island's spiritual spring water.]
"Then it should be possible to replace it with spiritual spring water, right?" Lin Hu said, already flying to the newly emerged mountain. He saw a spring that was emitting steam, reached out and splashed some water, feeling that it was a little different, probably because it was spiritual spring water.
[1097: Yes, you can use exchange stones.]
"The exchange stones don't have to be bought from the shop, do they?" Although it was a question, Lin Hu was already certain that they had to be bought from the shop, because he had already seen it.
So expensive!
One exchange stone requires 50 level-three crystal cores, and it's a one-time use item.
[1097: Host, don't think it's expensive. After all, you're exchanging spiritual spring water. Besides, there's something even more expensive: a hot spring pool costs 100 level-three crystal cores.]
"What?! Never mind then. If I weren't afraid Duan Linzhou would find out I wasn't on the raft, I would be soaking on it every day. I'll wait until Duan Linzhou leaves before I come here to soak." That's what Lin Hu thought, and that's what he said.
[1097: Host, are you really not going to buy it? The bi-weekly regional island raids are very dangerous; you have to spend the night there, and zombies and mutated beasts appear both day and night. This hot spring, however, filled with spiritual spring water, can accelerate the improvement of your abilities. Really not considering it?]
Lin Hu felt that 1097 was now like a salesperson, and he had succeeded because he was genuinely tempted.
In the end, Lin Hu bought it using the "pay later" option.
After harvesting all the mature plants and storing them in the warehouse, new ones are planted. In the updated system, any plant that you have previously planted can be planted again by simply clicking the "one-click planting" button on the system panel, enabling quick and efficient electronic labor.
Finally, Lin Hu planted the bamboo shoots he got from Sun Xiaoxiao on two separate mountains. Since there weren't many seeds, and Lin Hu was worried the free-range animals on the mountains would eat them all, he built some fences to enclose the bamboo. After replacing the hot spring water with spiritual spring water, he took five catties of crayfish and a large pile of ginger back with him.
