So, what does he have to be afraid of? He might as well follow Charles's suggestion and take this step. If he really could become the mayor of a small town, that would be a real stroke of luck...

Chapter 7 Sunset Town

The next day after breakfast, once the court opened, Charles took Robert Walker to receive the inheritance.

The process was very simple. The court had prepared a lawyer for Robert Walker, a blond, blue-eyed German gentleman, about forty years old, dressed in a suit and looking very solemn, his blond hair meticulously styled, exuding the aura of a human elite.

"Hello, Mr. Wang, my name is Carey von Miller, I work at Sidley Law Firm. I will be assisting you in signing for the inheritance this time. The fee is 850 yuan per hour, paid by the New Zealand government. Do you have any objections?" The German gentleman extended his hand in a friendly manner as soon as he saw Robert Walker.

Robert Walker shook his head. Since he didn't have to pay, what objection could he have?

He thought receiving the inheritance would be a complicated matter, but for him, it was actually very simple. Lawyer Miller helped him verify the will and the legality of each part of the inheritance. Once everything checked out, the lawyer signed first, and then he just needed to sign as well.

Charles told him that if there were any issues with the legality of these property certificates in the future, Miller would be held responsible first. So, even though foreign lawyers earn a lot, their responsibilities are also heavy.

Sir Roberts didn't leave much behind—mainly the land certificate and the castle property certificate. After Robert Walker signed, the judge presiding over the inheritance transfer signed on behalf of the state, and then the thousand square kilometers of land and the towering castle belonged to him.

The inheritance transfer took less than half an hour. Next was the matter of establishing a town on the territory, which was a bit more troublesome.

First, he had to change his nationality, which Charles handled. After taking his information, it was no longer his concern.

Then, he needed to submit an application to establish a town. Finally, the Otago Regional Council and the New Zealand Parliament would discuss and review it. Only when they both deemed it necessary to establish a town there would they approve it.

To establish a town, it needed a name. Charles asked him to come up with one. Robert Walker's mischievous side emerged, and he said, "How about calling it King Town? Or Little Wang Town? Wang Family Town?"

Charles said to him, "No, Wang, you'd better be careful. Small towns in New Zealand need to generate profit, either through agriculture or tourism. If you want to develop tourism to make money, it's best to choose an elegant and dreamy name, like Queenstown, Arrowtown, or Jade Town."

This gave Robert Walker a bit of a headache. He thought for a while but still couldn't come up with a suitable name. Miller, who was helping him brainstorm, reminded him, "It's not that complicated, young man. Think back to your territory—what moved you the most? Name it after that."

Robert Walker closed his eyes and recalled. His first impression of the territory was that beautiful, gentle evening: the setting sun in the west, red clouds filling the sky, a gentle breeze above, green grass swaying below...

"Sunset Town! How about that?" He looked at Charles and said. The name matched the territory of the land of the never-setting sun.

Charles clapped and laughed, "That's a great name—Sunset Town. There's no such town name in New Zealand yet, so it should be fine."

With the town named, the rest had little to do with Robert Walker. Mainly, Miller and Charles would handle things for him; he just needed to sign.

The rest was the approval process. The documents had to be sent to Wellington and then returned. This wasn't something that could be settled in a day or two.

Charles's suggestion was that they stay in Omarama and wait. But after receiving a bunch of keys, Robert Walker couldn't wait to see his castle and insisted on returning to live there.

There was no other way, so Charles agreed. The two of them bought some food, bedding, toothbrushes, toothpaste, facial cleanser, and other daily necessities in the small town, then took a helicopter back to the land of the never-setting sun—or rather, Sunset Town!

This return trip was also in the afternoon, but Old Walker was in no mood to enjoy the scenery outside; he was distressed about the money he spent today.

Charles said the money spent on daily necessities couldn't be reimbursed, so he had to pay out of his own pocket. The price of biological goods in New Zealand wasn't high, but he was spending New Zealand dollars here, and the exchange rate was over four to one with the RMB! For example, the set of bedding he bought was 440 NZD. It didn't seem expensive, but converted to RMB, that was 2,200 yuan!

Robert Walker had calculated that this time, he spent over 5,000 yuan on daily necessities, and he had only brought 20,000 yuan with him on this trip abroad.

The helicopter landed near the castle. The pilot spoke with Charles and then flew away, leaving the two of them at the foot of the mountain.

The castle was halfway up the mountain, at least 400 meters above the ground. The two of them strapped on their backpacks, dragged their suitcases, and began to climb.

On the way, Charles told Robert Walker that this castle was built in 1860 and had been standing for a century and a half. It was the oldest castle in New Zealand and one of the oldest buildings in the country.

In reality, Robert Walker had never seen an ancient castle with his own eyes. He was fascinated by this kind of architecture, especially since the castle now belonged to him, so he was even more interested. As he climbed the mountain, he unconsciously sped up, leaving Charles struggling to keep up, panting behind him.

Robert Walker grew a bit impatient and said, "Charles, hurry up!"
