In the morning, Hao Ren dressed up in a gray polo t-shirt, and beige golf pants. He paired the attire with his watch, and gray golf sneakers. He left the house and found Heath clearing the dust from the car surface.
Heath greeted Hao Ren and asked, "Young Master, where are we going?"
Hao Ren replied, "Sunshine Tea House."
Heath nodded and they got in the car. Hao Ren was scrolling through the details of the place on his phone. Sunshine Tea House was a peak name in the jade capital. This place was private property and they did not use advertisements for their market reach.
Han Lingshi had arranged the breakfast meeting at this place because of two things. One, it was a closed off place, and two, it was one of the most luxurious places in the Jade Capital.
Hao Ren saw a few pictures on the mobile and found that at least seven people had shown up for the breakfast. Hao Ren called Klaus as he reached closer to the venue. The latter had been informed about the gathering last night and the ten models they used in the press event were being used in the office for various tasks and helping the staff.
Hao Ren asked him to get them all to the venue. He also called Han Lingshi to make sure that the robots are allowed access inside the Teahouse.
...
Hao Ren got out of the car and found that only Han Lingshi had arrived. Looking around the place was very scenic, it was a small hill where the Teahouse is set up. Like a small retreat surrounded by the lush green. Since the place was located almost outside the city, not many people came here.
Hao Ren found the entrance to be something that he would call in his old life 'out of an anime' place. The young man smiled and took out his phone, inspired by the serenity of the place he wanted to click a picture.
However, at this moment a calm voice echoed from the side, "Young man, are you clicking the picture to post it on the internet?"
Hao Ren looked over and found an old lady with a slightly hunched back, and approached her with a smile. He replied, "No grandma, I am only clicking the picture to set it as my wallpaper. This place is very beautiful. I can see the entire city from the hilltop."
The old lady looked at Hao Ren for a prolonged moment before she nodded, and said, "Go in then, why are you standing outside?"
Hao Ren replied, "I am waiting for my wife, and a few guests."
The old lady nodded and said, "So you are the ones who are bringing us such a big business today. I better go and check the situation."
Hao Ren did not expect to run into the old lady. He was about to bid her well when the lady almost tripped on her traditional dress. He reacted quickly and took hold of her fragile frame. He sighed and said concernedly, "Grandma, you ought to be careful. What if you fell?"
Grace nodded and replied, "Yes, Master Hao. Greetings, Grandma Teahouse."
The old woman rolled her eyes and said, "My name is Hua Shayun."
Grace replied in a cordial manner, "I beg your pardon, Madam Hua."
Hua Shayun looked at the robot with surprise and said, "Boy, I will put them through the thick of it, are you sure you want to do this?"
Hao Ren nodded vigorously and said, "Grandma Hua, we will be gaining important data with your help. I shall be grateful for your magnanimity. This data will help Grace grow."
...
The preparations began, Grace assigned one of the bots to specifically look after the old lady, while the rest followed her instructions neatly. Klaus sat in the corner to record all this with a few digital cameras.
After fifteen minutes, Han Lingshi arrived with the guests. They all were surprised by the bots. Eight bots under Grace's lead bowed and greeted them, "Welcome to the Sunshine Teahouse, we hope you have a pleasant meal."
The guests were shocked, they had seen these bots on the internet, but the customers had yet to put up extensive videos on the internet. Hao Ren stepped up from the side and said, "Ladies and Gentlemen, this is Thunder Technology's house bot. Today, they will be serving you. I hope you are open to this new experience."
The people nodded and Han Lingshi said, "Ren, let me introduce you."
She introduced him to the seven people, and Hao Ren greeted them all with a smile, after a casual small talk. One of the two ladies in the group asked, "Mister Hao, you arranged such a fantastic display for us today, now would you like to tell us, what is the plan?"
Hao Ren smiled and replied, "Madam Charlotte, I intend to use these robots to follow behind a few teachers, and oversee care and education in the remote areas of the world where poverty has become a creed."
The lady nodded and said, "Very admirable of you, but some parts of the world do not welcome the technology you have."
Hao Ren nodded and said, "I will not touch those regions for the time being. However, in your respective nations, there are many orphanages that are short of many things, money, food, clothing, medical supplies.
I plan to have these robots follow a trained professional and assist them in their task to look after the children."
A middle aged man stopped sipping his tea and asked, "That is very good for the charity part, but what about the business part?"
That's right, Hao Ren was not doing it simply for the charity but to expand his business too. He looked at the man and smiled as he said, "Mister Deen, I wonder if you would like to change the world?"
