From the second link:
Herndon, Virginia,
29 June 2021 - United Airlines has placed an order for 70 Airbus A321neo aircraft, positioning the airline to grow its presence in the single-aisle market in alignment with its “United Next” initiative. The new order complements existing orders from United for 50 A321XLR aircraft, bringing
the total commitment from the airline to 120 A321 aircraft.
50 A321XLR in 2019
70 A321neo in 2021
(Bold mine)
yes those were the original two orders
but they have since ordered another 60 in 2023 and leased another 35 in 2024. So we must be willing to pay the price is the price currently.
