"Y… yeah, I won't overcharge you. I could easily sell this to a collector for about €175,000, but since you're Finn's friend, I'll take only €143,000. I'll also have to use my connections to register it under the old rules. The EU is very strict about carbon emissions."
Linn leaned back again. This time, a genuine smile rested on his face. It looked like he was simply giving Max the chance to take the deal. Otherwise, he could sell it to someone else anytime.
"I'll take it. But can you show me the bike first?"
Max nodded and agreed without hesitation. It was a straightforward offer. He would get a collector's piece and earn Linn's goodwill at the same time. A clean deal.
"Sure. Follow me. Damn, you're tall."
Linn stood up first. Max rose calmly as well. Seeing Max nearly a head taller, Linn looked surprised. Max only gave a small smile and followed the father and son.
