Lu Hao made an excuse to go to the bathroom, but came back soon.
"We require to count the number of these crystal cores"
Lu Hao suggested.
"3.22 million crystal cores, do you still want to count them?"
The one who reacted the most was Yang Xingye. The quantity of each bag of these crystal cores was already marked with a black pen. Did these people still want to count them?
"Of course, this is our first transaction."
Although Guan Shouzhong was a little surprised, he did not object. He also felt that it was necessary to be cautious.
The family naturally understood what Lu Hao meant. It was not that he did not trust the base commander, but that he did not trust the man named Yang Xingye.
But with so many crystal cores, how are they going to count them?
Lu Hao, however, squatted on the ground without changing his expression, picked up a bag of crystal cores at random and started counting them. Seeing this, the family had no choice but to bite the bullet and join in counting.
The bag of crystal cores that Lu Hao picked was marked with 12,000 pieces, which meant a whole number. The family divided the pieces into several piles and began to count them in front of a few people, while Yang Xingye, who was standing aside, began to look around anxiously.
The people guarding the gate did not notice anything unusual about Yang Xingye, but Su Jin, who was standing nearby, had seen it all. There must be something wrong with this person.
Because it was not certain what kind of superpowers Yang Xingye had, and there was also the possibility that he was a psychic, Su Jin disguised herself before coming out, even wearing a mask. She stood next to Yang Xingye, but the other party had no reaction at all, so the possibility that he was a psychic could be ruled out.
A crystal core sounds like a lot, and the family counted them very quickly. Xiang Sanjin, who was counting on the side, looked at the result on the paper and was stunned for a moment: "No more?"
"there is none left"
Lu Hao stood up and said.
"How many?"
When Guan Shouzhong saw Xiang Sanjin’s expression, he felt something was wrong. Could it be that the quantity was really wrong?
"Only 9,865 pieces..."
When Xiang Sanjin told him this number, his ears turned red. What should he do? This was so embarrassing. They wanted to buy other people's supplies and yet they were cheating here...
"How is that possible? These were all counted one by one by the finance department."
Tian Yongyi also didn't believe it. This wasn't just one or two missing, but more than 2,000. If more than 2,000 were missing from just one randomly picked bag, then the number of missing crystal cores from the dozens of bags they had here would be...
"My brother-in-law has a very bad eye. He picked out the one with problems right away."
Lin Xiuyuan was very happy, fortunately he didn't count for so long in vain.
"It's not that I have a bad eye, but there should be less in every bag."
Lu Hao shrugged and answered in a low voice.
"Uncle Yang, what on earth is going on?"
Guan Shouzhong asked with a frown.
"I don't know either. Every day before we leave the warehouse, we're checked by base personnel. It can't be us. You, you have to believe me!"
Yang Xingye's panic-stricken look made Xiang Sanjin feel a little sorry for him. In the eyes of several people, Uncle Yang would never do such a thing. And it was indeed as Uncle Yang said, every day before the warehouse staff left work, there would be random personnel to check their entire bodies. If so many crystal cores were really missing, it would be impossible not to find out.
"It's possible that there's something wrong with this package. Let's try another one."
After Tian Yongyi finished speaking, he actually picked up a bag and started counting.
But the result made several people feel disappointed and unbelievable. There were more than 1,900 coins missing from the bag!
“It seems that this needs to be fully checked.”
Lu Hao said.
"Don't worry, since we are the ones purchasing the supplies, we will definitely not pay you less than a single crystal core. We can confirm this with both parties until we come up with an accurate number."
Guan Shouzhong also felt very ashamed. This was a matter of their integrity. They had to confirm the crystal core here first and then give an explanation to Long Xingtianxia.
"Since these two bags of crystal cores have been counted, let's trade the quantity of these two bags first. As for the rest... we should come back tomorrow."
Lu Hao said.
Hearing that these people were about to go back, Xiang Sanjin immediately became anxious: "Don't, we will recalculate quickly, we are sincere in trading with you!"
"Okay, let's trade two bags of crystal cores first."
Guan Shouzhong made the final decision: two bags is fine. He also wanted to see if these people had any supplies.
Lu Hao nodded and placed two bags of food corresponding to the crystal cores in front of everyone.
Seeing so many bags of supplies appear with just a wave of his hand, everyone present was stunned.
Those bulging bags really contain food!
“It’s real rice!”
Yang Xingye said in surprise after opening a bag and taking a look.
"Well, we'll continue after you guys finish the rest."
Lu Hao said with a smile.
"Okay, we'll come to your house to apologize in the evening."
Guan Shouzhong was also relieved, but regarding the crystal core issue, they still had to contact the finance department to confirm which link had gone wrong.
Lu Hao glanced at the guards again, then walked out of the warehouse with his family.
…
That afternoon, Guan Shouzhong and his men came to the side yard of Long Xing Tianxia, only to find that Chen Daming did not seem to be there.
"Daming should be back soon, you two should sit down and chat first."
Lin Tianhui entertained them warmly.
"I'm so sorry about this morning, we didn't expect anything like this."
Guan Shouzhong took the initiative to apologize.
"Hehe, there are probably many things you haven't thought of, but it doesn't matter, you will know sooner or later."
