According to the author of the book, the people of Israel and Judah who lived in the cities gave a portion of their animals like cows and sheep, as well as other holy things, to God. They collected and piled these gifts up in big heaps as an offering to show their love and thankfulness to God.

2 Chronicles 31:6: And [concerning] the children of Israel and Judah, that dwelt in the cities of Judah, they also brought in the tithe of oxen and sheep, and the tithe of holy things which were consecrated unto the LORD their God, and laid [them] by heaps. [by heaps: Heb. heaps, heaps]

This verse states that all the tithe of the land is the LORD's, which might contradict the idea of tithes being stored or used differently as in 2 Chronicles 31:6.

Contradiction with Deuteronomy 14:22-23

These verses describe consuming tithes in the place which God shall choose, potentially conflicting with the storage practice described in 2 Chronicles 31:6.

Contradiction with Matthew 23:23

This verse addresses the importance of practicing justice, mercy, and faithfulness over merely tithing, possibly contradicting the focus on tithing alone seen in 2 Chronicles 31:6.
