Question 2 options:

Reuven is greedy and only cares about money. His greed sets the plot in motion and adds to the rising tension.

Reuven doesn't have any use for the goat anymore.

Reuven doesn't want to sell Zlateh, but his family needs the money. Reuven's decision and sacrifice set the plot of the story in motion. Without this event, the rest of the story wouldn't have happened.

Reuven could use more meat for the holiday season. He cares for the goat, however, and can't bear to do the job himself. His decision creates the main conflict in the story.
