Question

what was the reaction of the old man to the story tellers offer?​

Answer 1

Answer:

The old man reacted in a very strange way. One would even describe it as a bad way. Instead of feeling happy that he was getting double of what he had earlier thought he would get, he refused to take the extra money saying that he did not like being insulted.

Answer 2

Answer:

When the storyteller offered double the money, Don Anselmo thought for a moment and then spoke. He didn’t like the way the storyteller had spoken. He felt insulted. He had agreed to sell the land for 1200 dollars and that was the final price. He was a man of principles. Hence he refused to accept the extra money.
