Don Anselmo is greedy and is hoping to negotiate for more.
The narrator is greedy and mean.
The narrator is worried that he is being taken advantage of by the Americans.
The narrator wants to give Don Anselmo a fair price for his land.

Passage
The old man hung his head for a moment in thought. Then he stood up and stared at me. “Friend,” he said, “I do not like to have you speak to me in that manner.” I kept still and let him have his say. “I know these Americans are good people, and that is why I have agreed to sell my house to them. But I do not care to be insulted. I have agreed to sell my house and land for twelve hundred dollars and that is the price.”

I argued with him, but it was useless. Finally he signed the deed and took the money but refused to take more than the amount agreed upon. Then he shook hands all around, put on his ragged gloves, took his stick and walked out with the boy behind him.
