I picked up my phone and scanned the payment QR code. “Money’s transferred—2,000 dollars.”
I showed the payment success screen to the village chief. “Now can we go? Pack up, let’s head back.”
Yovie bit her lip, almost crying, “Lora… this money shouldn’t be given…”
I shook my head and walked out of the warehouse first.
Behind me, I could hear villagers whispering and some were proudly counting the money that had arrived. Some even clapped excitedly in celebration.
Just as I reached the warehouse door, Olive hurried after me and grabbed my wrist. “Lora, there’s one more thing we need to make clear.”
“Other livestreams are selling mangoes of the same quality for 2,1 dollars, but you insisted on 1,85 dollars.”
“That’s a difference of 0.25 dollars per pound. With thousands of pounds sold across the village, that’s not a small amount.”
A few villagers behind her immediately realized this and crowded around. “Exactly! That price difference needs to be paid! At least another 28.000 dollars!”
