We need to ensure no Chinese. Our line: "【33】 - General Manager? Actually 'Ye Zong' is General Manager. According to the glossary, General Manager means General Manager. So we need to include General Manager. Also 'your house' refers to Ye Chenjing's house, which is not a named entity. So we add General Manager."

"\"Could you help me find out? My hometown, Lin Jia Village, recently received a notice to relocate; it seems the government is acquiring land to turn the village into a medicinal herb planting base. Could you inquire about the details? \"" No Chinese.

"- Lin Jia Village appears." No Chinese.

We need to ensure no Chinese. Our line: "【60】 - Also Medicinal Herb Planting Base is Medicinal Herb Planting Base (from glossary). Also Land Acquisition is Land Acquisition.

Thus from line 27: Lin Jia Cun, Medicinal Herb Planting Base, Land Acquisition, Relocation.

Ye Chenjing nodded, "No problem, I'll get back to you tomorrow. Speaking of medicinal materials, have we secured the fresh medicinal materials that Chairman Yang mentioned? The other party has come to inquire several times."

- Ye Chenjing.

- "Yang Chairman" is Yang Chairman (from glossary).

- "Medicinal Materials" is Medicinal Materials (generic but appears in glossary). Should we include? It's a generic term but appears in glossary as "Medicinal Materials". Likely include.

- "Fresh Medicinal Materials" is Fresh Medicinal Materials (glossary).

- Also "Medicinal Materials" again.

Thus include Yang Chairman, Medicinal Materials, Fresh Medicinal Materials.

Lin Meng nodded, thinking that Ye Fan had a senior brother from the alchemy aristocratic family, Song Yun, so obtaining fresh medicinal materials wasn't difficult, and she said:

- Lin Meng.

- Ye Fan (Ye Fan) appears? Actually "Ye Fan" is Ye Fan, in glossary.

- Song Yun (Song Yun) appears.

- "Alchemy Aristocratic Family" is Alchemy Aristocratic Family (glossary).

- "Fresh Medicinal Materials" Fresh Medicinal Materials.

- "Fresh Goods" is Fresh Goods (glossary).

- "Planting Site" is Planting Site (glossary).

- "Medicinal Materials" Medicinal Materials.

Thus include Fresh Goods, Planting Site, Medicinal Materials.

Ye Chenjing looked at Lin Meng in surprise, "No price increase?"

- Ye Chenjing, Lin Meng.

Fresh goods are far more valuable than dried medicinal materials; this little money-lover actually loosened up.

- Fresh Goods, Medicinal Materials.

Lin Meng blinked and said:

- Lin Meng.

"Don't think I'm being so mercenary, okay? I also really want to contribute to the country; if we can cultivate precious medicinal materials ourselves, that would benefit the nation's medical development, right?"

- "Precious Medicinal Materials" is Precious Medicinal Materials (glossary).

- "Medical Development" is Medical Development (glossary).

Thus include Precious Medicinal Materials, Medical Development.

"Right." Lin Meng suddenly recalled what Sun Yao had said earlier, and looked at Ye Chenjing, saying:

- Lin Meng.

- Sun Yao (Sun Yao) appears.

- Ye Chenjing.

Thus include Sun Yao.

"I heard you're dealing with jewelry matters; has the issue been resolved?"

- No named? "Jewelry" is Jewelry (generic) but glossary has "High-end Jewelry", "Jewelry Ornaments", "Jewelry Store", "Jewelry Industry". "Jewelry matters" maybe not a named entity. We'll see later.

Ye Chenjing shook his head, obviously not wanting to let Lin Meng know about the unpleasant things he'd encountered at work, and, worrying, he casually said:

- Ye Chenjing, Lin Meng.

"It's going fairly smoothly; I'll take care of it."

- No named.

Those overseas forces seem to be targeting the Ye family; whenever the Ye family takes interest in a business opportunity, they intervene and disrupt the Ye family's trade.

- "Overseas Forces" is Overseas Forces (glossary).

- "Ye Family" is Ye Family (glossary).

- "Gemstone" is Gemstone (glossary).

- "Jewelry Store" Jewelry Store.

Ye Chenjing is still thinking of ways to contend with those hidden forces; in the short term, it's unlikely to be effective.

- Ye Chenjing.

- "Short Term" is Short Term (glossary).

Thus include Ye Chenjing, Short Term.

- "Worrisome Matters" is Worrisome Matters (glossary).

- Lin Meng, Ye Chenjing.

Lin Meng stared at Ye Chenjing for a while; although he seemed relaxed on the surface, his slightly furrowed brow gave him away.

- Lin Meng, Ye Chenjing.

After thinking, Lin Meng stood up and said:

- Lin Meng.

"Wait a moment, I'll go home and get something for you."

- No named.

Lin Meng felt awkward taking out the box of high-end jewelry that Ye Heng had given her in front of Ye Chenjing, so she just made an empty trip for show, and happened to bring the little gold back home.

- Lin Meng.

- Ye Heng (Ye Heng) appears.

- "High-end Jewelry" is High-end Jewelry (glossary).

Soon, Lin Meng returned, now carrying a large box in her arms.

Thus include Large Box.

Seeing this, Ye Chenjing hurried over, trotting to help her move the large box; it wasn't light in his hands, and he couldn't help but ask curiously:

- Ye Chenjing, Lin Meng, Large Box.

"What is this?"

- No named.

Lin Meng sold a tease, "Let's open it at home; I guarantee what I'm giving you are all good things."

- Lin Meng.

Lin Meng's words whetted Ye Chenjing's appetite; back in the living room, she placed the box on the coffee table, taking up most of the space.

- Lin Meng, Ye Chenjing.

The box looks quite ordinary; it's just something Lin Meng temporarily grabbed to hold things.

- Lin Meng.

Seeing Lin Meng's gesture, Ye Chenjing stood and carefully opened the box.

- Ye Chenjing, Lin Meng.

In the next second, dozens of glittering, radiant gemstones appeared before their eyes.

- Ye Chenjing? Actually subject is implied; but "Gemstone" Gemstone appears.

- Gemstone.

"There are thirty-five gemstones in total, each of top quality, absolutely on par with foreign goods; we don't need to compete for overseas mines—these should be enough for a while, right?"

- "Gemstone" Gemstone.

- "Ore Deposit" is Ore Deposit (glossary).

Lin Meng thought, Ye Chenjing's jewelry business was always aimed at the high-end market, not pursuing volume but quality and brand effect.

- Lin Meng, Ye Chenjing.

- "Jewelry Industry" is Jewelry Industry (glossary).

These thirty-five gemstones are each quite large; even with some waste from cutting, a single stone can yield dozens of jewelry pieces, more than enough.

- "Gemstone" Gemstone.

- "Jewelry Ornaments" is Jewelry Ornaments (glossary).

Thus include Gemstone, Jewelry Ornaments.

Ye Chenjing had long been shocked by Lin Meng's grand handiwork.

Although he is not an expert in this area, he can still tell the quality of the gemstones.

Moreover, every single gemstone in Lin Meng's box is heavyweight; if measured in carats, it is simply unprecedented.

Even the world's most famous ore deposits have never yielded such enormous gemstones; where did Lin Meng get these top-quality giant gemstones?

Although Ye Chenjing was greatly shocked, he did not ask for details.

He took a deep breath, his gaze burning as he looked at Lin Meng.

She truly is a treasure, always able to bring surprise and astonishment!
