After having breakfast the next day, after the court went to work, Charlie took Wang Bo to take over the estate.
The process was very simple. The court prepared a lawyer for Wang Bo, a blond Germanic gentleman, about forty years old, in a suit and shoes, with a somber face, meticulous blond hair care, and full of human elites. temperament.
"Hello, Mr. Wang, my name is Carly von Mueller, and I work for Shida Law Firm. You will be assisted by me in signing the estate. The fee is 850 yuan per hour. It is paid by the New Zealand government. "German Gentleman extended his hand kindly after seeing Wang Bo.?
Wang Bo shook his head and didn't need him to pay, so what's his objection?
He thought it would be a tedious task to receive the inheritance. In fact, everything was simple for him. Attorney Mueller helped him verify the legitimacy of the testament and the various heritages. Then there was no problem. The lawyer signed the signature first. can.
Charlie told him that if there were problems with the legitimacy of these property certificates in the future, Muller would be held accountable first, so don't look at the high income of foreign lawyers, they also have heavy responsibilities.
Sir Roberts left little legacy, mainly two kinds of land certificate and castle real estate certificate. After Wang Bo's signature, the judge who presided over the delivery of the court signed it on behalf of the country. The 1,000 square kilometers of land and the towering castle were Belongs to him.
It took less than half an hour to settle the estate. The next step was to handle the establishment of the town. This is more troublesome.
First of all, he has to change his nationality. Charlie is responsible for it, and it will be irrelevant for him to leave his information.
Then, he has to submit an application for town construction. On the last day, he will not discuss and approve the Otago District Council and the New Zealand Parliament. They will only approve when they think it is necessary to build a town there.
To build a town, you must have a town name. Charlie asked him to think about it. Wang Bo's bad taste came and said, "What about Dawang Town? Or Xiao Wang Town? Wang Jia Town?"
Charlie said to him, "Don't, Wang, you better be cautious. New Zealand's small towns need to be profitable, either through agriculture or tourism. If you want to develop small towns to make money, it's best to be elegant and dreamy Names like Queenstown, Arrowtown, Emerald Town, etc. "
In this way, Wang Bo had a headache. After thinking about it for a while, he didn't think of the right one. Mueller, who was helping him as a staff member, reminded him: "It's not that complicated, young man, think about your territory. You name it after that. "
Wang Bo recalled with his eyes closed. His first impression of the territory was that beautiful and gentle evening, the setting sun was down, the red clouds were full of sky, the clear wind in the sky was blowing, and the green grass on the ground was shaking ...
"Sunset town! How is it?" He looked at Charlie, the name corresponding to the sunset.
Charlie applauded and said, "This name is really good. Sunset town. New Zealand doesn't have such a town name yet. It should be usable."
Give the town a name, and the rest of the matter has little to do with Wang Bo, mainly Muller and Charlie to help handle it, he only needs to sign.
The rest is a reply, and the information must be sent to Wellington and then returned. This cannot be solved in a day or two.
Charlie meant that they stayed in Omarama and waited. After receiving a series of keys, Wang Bo couldn't wait to see his castle and insisted on returning to live in the castle.
No choice, Charlie had to agree, the two bought some food items such as food bedding, toothbrush, toothpaste and facial cleansers in the town, and then flew back to the sun without a collar by helicopter—or, sunset town!
The return trip was still in the afternoon, but Pharaoh was in no mood to see the scenery outside, and he was distressed by the money he spent today.
Charlie said that money for daily necessities cannot be reimbursed. He can only pay for it himself. The price of biological materials in New Zealand is not high, but he spends New Zealand coins here. For example, the set of bedding he bought was 440 yuan, which looks inexpensive, but can be converted into RMB, that is 2,200 yuan!
Wang Bo calculated it. This time, the living supplies he bought cost him more than 5,000 yuan, and this time he went abroad with 20,000 yuan.
The helicopter landed near the castle. The pilot and Charlie flew away, leaving them at the foot of the mountain.
The castle is on the mountainside, at least 400 meters above the ground, and the two men started to climb by dragging boxes on their backs.
On the way, Charlie told Wang Bo that the castle was built in 1860, and it has been a century and a half. It is the oldest castle in New Zealand and one of the oldest buildings in New Zealand.
In reality, Wang Bo has not seen the ancient castle with his own eyes. He is full of interest in this kind of architecture, especially this castle belongs to him, so he is more interested. When climbing the mountain, he unconsciously speeds up, Charlie cannot keep up with his pace , Walked behind panting.
Wang Bo was a little anxious and said, "Charlie, hurry up."
Charlie was crying: "Wang, my good friend, not everyone's physical fitness is as good as you. To be honest, I read the information before and said that you are a programmer, but I think that is not correct, you must be a Rugby player, and it's still trump right? "
No wonder Charlie thinks that this mountain road is actually quite rugged and lacks finishing. There are weeds and bushes on the road, and walking on it is not much different from climbing the mountain. But the heart of the lord provided him with a steady stream of motivation, and subtly improved his organ function, strengthened his muscle tissue, and mountain climbing was nothing for him.
The Southern Alps is the largest mountain range in New Zealand. It runs through the central and western part of the South Island. The highest Mount Cook is 3764 meters above sea level and 320 kilometers in length. It runs from northeast to southwest. The starting point of this mountain range is almost no sun. Territory. It happens that the castle is built on the mountainside of the starting peak of this mountain range, which has an altitude of more than four hundred meters.
Climbing up to a height of 400 meters, Charlie was the same as losing half his life. When he finally reached the castle, he sat down on the wild grass and gasped.
Wang Bo was also panting, but he was trying to prevent Charlie from seeing something strange. In fact, he felt that he still had physical strength now!
Standing in front of the castle, Wang Bo looked up at his own castle. When he looked at it from a distance, the stone-built castle was soaring and tall. Only when I looked closer, I found that the castle was very old, worn and full. Desolate and broken feeling.
The megalithic city wall is ten or twenty meters high, with wild grass growing in the cracks of the stone, vines such as rattan and creeper creeping on the wall, and the outer wall is rough, like the skin of an old farmer blowing the sun. There are many holes, like old spots on the skin.
Seeing that Wang Bo was interested in the castle, Charlie took a break and introduced him: "How is it, man, are you very shocked? I have read the building information of the castle. It is said that the Roberts family originally built this The castle used 500 tons of cement, 2,000 cubic meters of lime, and 150,000 bricks. As for the stones used, they cannot be counted because they are sourced locally. "
"If you know how backward the technology was then, you can understand how difficult it is to build it, but it's on the mountainside! At that time, you had to use a steam crane to transport all kinds of materials first, and then use a body to tilt upright. And the vehicles that dumped the load were transferred to various stopovers, and finally they were sent to their current positions with accurately calculated pulley sets. How is it, isn't it great? "
After listening to Charlie's introduction, Wang Bo was really shocked. He asked: "How much did it cost to build this castle? New Zealand lacked manpower at that time? How did the Roberts family hire people?"
Charlie said: "At that time, the Roberts family had just fled from England to come here, the family strength is still very strong, but that is also almost exhausted to build this castle."
"To be honest, they miscalculated. They thought that New Zealand would be the second Europa continent, and the nobles could fight to seize the land here. The Roberts family worked hard to build this castle on the mountainside and wanted to use this castle as a base Rule South Island, but now it seems silly! "Charlie laughed sarcastically.
