When Lencho went to the post office expecting a reply from God, he received an envelope that had the money but only seventy pesos instead of hundred. He got very angry and thought that the employees had removed the remaining thirty pesos from the envelope. He believed that God could neither make a mistake nor could he have denied a request made to Him. If we think from Lencho’s point of view, he is not wrong in calling them crooks because Lencho’s faith was unwavering and under no circumstance he was going to doubt God. The envelope was in the post office, which meant that only the employees could have tampered with the envelope. Therefore, in his next letter, he addressed the post office employees as a bunch of crooks
