Chapter 169 The Difference Between Apples and Grapefruits
When Ryan spoke, Canossa was stunned and asked in surprise: "Your territory?"
According to her understanding, Ryan should not be a high-ranking noble, so how come he suddenly has a territory?
Oh, by the way, the eldest princess!
Oh... I almost forgot about this relationship.
Compared to "territory", Canossa obviously feels that gossip can better distract from the tingling sensation of wound healing than business.
She blinked and asked with a playful smile, "By the way, Dr. Ryan, what is your relationship with Ymir?"
"She and I are cooperative allies."
Without thinking too much, Ryan said, "It just so happens that this territory is related to both me and her."
Canossa gossiped again: "Just an ally?"
Ryan didn't notice the weirdness in her tone and nodded seriously : "Yeah."
"Really?"
Hearing this, Canossa's expression was full of mockery, and his eyes seemed to be able to speak: Guess whether I believe it or not?
What kind of ally would allow Her Royal Highness the Princess, who is said to dislike men at all, to live in the same room with her?
She asked curiously, "How did you and Her Royal Highness the Princess know each other?"
"???"
Why are you asking this?
Hearing this question, Ryan's mind instinctively emerged with the scene where he encountered the seriously injured Ymir in the wasteland.
How similar is it to now?
Thinking of this, he glanced at the naked, beautiful body lying one meter away and said, "I treated her injuries."
…
Hey, hey, hey...what does that look of yours mean?
How could Ryan's furtive glance escape the perception of a high-level transcendent?
Canossa just took a deep breath in her heart, but suddenly, she realized something.
Huh...surgery?
Her eyes turned and she blurted out, "When Ymir was attacked and seriously injured, was it you who saved her?"
"Um."
Ryan nodded.
Hearing this, he was a little surprised and asked, "Madam, aren't you a friend of Her Highness Ymir? Didn't she tell you?"
"ha?"
A sneer flashed across Canossa's brows and he avoided the subject.
But after hearing what Ryan said, she had almost restored the truth of the whole matter in her mind, and she could no longer hold back her curiosity. She asked in a slightly strange tone: "So, you also performed surgery on that Ymir-sama like this?"
She emphasized the word "like this", which was a very obvious hint: Also naked like this?
At this moment, this beautiful lady suddenly didn't mind the furtive glances anymore.
She didn't want to be compared with anyone, not with whom! She seemed to be comparing herself with the eldest princess of the Omar Empire, the recognized "two beauties of the Omar Empire"... She was also very interested.
…
etc!
The topic we are talking about has nothing to do with this, right?
Ryan saw the gossip fire burning in Canossa's eyes, and naturally guessed something. He said faintly: "Madam, I don't think that's important..."
Sure enough, no matter whether they are commoners or nobles, the romantic affairs of the royal family are always talked about with great relish.
He didn't want to say more on this topic, so he changed the subject: "I want to ask you about a business problem in my territory..."
But Canossa didn't buy it at all. He forced himself back to the previous topic and asked a more explicit question.
Her eyes turned and she chuckled, "Who do you think has a better figure, me or Ymir?"
“…”
When Ryan heard this question, he felt a headache.
But I instinctively made a comparison in my heart.
Without any subjective bias, I can say that both of them have excellent figures.
They all follow the melee combat style, with no excess fat on their waists, thighs, backs... their bodies.
The smooth muscle lines do not look as exaggerated as "Barbie" when there is no fighting spirit running. Instead, they are just right, giving people the beauty of an athlete with tight and even muscles.
This is not just a view from a distance, but the conclusion Ryan came to after getting his hands on it.
Moreover, both of them usually wear light makeup, and their appearance and figure are impeccable. They are completely different from those celebrities who need to use strong corsets to squeeze out the fat and tighten the waist, and use heavy makeup and pungent perfume to cover up body flaws.
Um……
The biggest difference is their different styles.
One is cold and indifferent, a workaholic, and doesn't allow strangers to enter; the other is mature, charming, and gorgeous.
To use the words of the previous life, one has the cool and aloof style of an icy president, while the other has the charming style of a red-lipped, domineering lady.
But regardless of the subjective influence of temperament on people's judgment, it is really hard to say which of the two has better or worse figures.
If we really have to compare, Mrs. Canossa would be more plump.
Probably...
What is the difference between grapefruit and big apple?
oh!
besides!
From a biological point of view, the skin of both of them has high cell activity and is so tender that it can be broken with a baby's touch...
But there is one more point, which may be a secret difference that only Ryan knows!
This Lady Canossa walked with pure extraordinary strength, and her muscles were naturally several times stronger than Ymir's.
It is well known that extraordinary people who focus on advancing pure strength will lose a lot of hair due to their extremely high levels of body metabolism and hormone secretion.
So, you see those big and muscular guys, most of them are bald.
The stronger, the balder!
This has almost become an external criterion for distinguishing strength among the extraordinary people in the power department.
Although I don't understand how Canossa maintains such thick and beautiful hair, the skin on her body is indeed unusually shiny, like mutton-fat and warm jade...
Everything is smooth as far as the eye can see.
…
At this time, Canossa didn't know why Ryan suddenly lost his focus, and his eyes flashed with anger. Obviously, that look was not thinking of anything good.
She urged again: "Hey, hey, hey... Doctor Ryan, I'm asking you a question?"
Ryan pulled back his wandering thoughts and responded with a common term introduced in the Scumbag Handbook of his previous life: "You're better."
If you don’t respond well to this kind of question, it will be fatal.
Although the other party may feel that you are being perfunctory if you answer this way, at least your favorability towards them will not decrease.
“…”
Sure enough, when Canossa heard this perfunctory answer, he rolled his eyes at Ryan and lost interest in asking further.
Then, she became interested and returned to the previous topic, saying lazily: "Um...what did you say before? Your territory?"
When she heard about territory cooperation, the first thing that came to her mind was probably a small territory with a population of tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands.
Besides, it sounds like a newly built territory, maybe with less than tens of thousands of people...
Normally, she didn't personally get involved in that kind of small business, it was all handled by her subordinates.
But because it was Ryan who asked, she was interested in asking.
"It's not my personal territory, but it has a lot to do with me."
Ryan didn't know how to explain it for a moment.
He is indeed not a lord, but the city is closely related .
…
The ruins of the mechanical city in the "Kalatwa Basin" is not only where Ryan plans to build a territory for Ymir, but also a new settlement for the surviving branch of Kalman.
This is what is in the contract.
The contract he signed with Ymir in the tent was a cooperative development contract, one of the clauses of which was to peacefully share the mechanical city with the Coleman people.
Ymir's ideas are not as rigid as those of the old nobles, and she does not intend to monopolize everything.
This was one of the concepts of her "New Deal", to treat friendly allies equally, whether they were commoners or nobles.
Moreover, the new pass across the "Alcoron Mountains" is in that basin, so it is the best choice to build the territory there. But at the same time, the living environment there is harsh, and high-level monsters are rampant. Without absolute power, it is definitely untenable.
Ymir knew very well that it would be difficult for her to gain a foothold on her own.
Choosing to unite with the Coleman warriors, a powerful ally who are better at surviving in the wild, is the best option for a win-win situation.
…
Although Canosai was slightly curious, she still had no great interest in this "small business" and asked casually, "Dr. Ryan, where is your territory?"
Having said that, Ryan suddenly thought of something.
He didn't rush to answer, but asked: "Mrs. Canossa, do you have a blank contract paper?"
Canossa didn't understand why he suddenly asked this, and responded: "Yes... There are a dozen in the sapphire storage ring."
As expected, the advanced magic contract scrolls of the rich are all sold by the "dozens", and are essential carry-on items like toilet paper.
Ryan asked again: "Can I use it?"
Canossa naturally had no objection, "As you wish."
Then, she watched Ryan take out a contract and write something on it.
As he caught a glimpse of the contents of the contract, the knowledgeable Vice President of the Black Gold Chamber of Commerce became more and more surprised.
Is he going to sign a confidentiality agreement?
But... does a newly established territory need such a serious confidentiality clause?
Then she thought, once construction of any new territory began, the news would immediately spread throughout the two empires. What was the point of these confidentiality regulations?
But obviously, she didn't think Ryan would do something meaningless.
Canossa also vaguely guessed something. Could it be... a very special territory?
