Su Bin turned to Qin Zhenzhen, saying, "Wife, you should guide Uncle Fu on what steps to take."
"Of course," Qin Zhenzhen agreed without hesitation this time.
Continuing to decline might have come across as flirtatious, and it seemed that Su Bin might have deliberately orchestrated this.

Qin Zhenzhen proceeded, "Once we acquire the wasteland, Uncle Fu, we entrust you with full authority for its management."
"Any rent collected from those who lease our land should be duly registered and remitted to us," she instructed.
Qian Youfu promptly responded, "Thank you on behalf of everyone. It wouldn't be appropriate to entirely forgo land rent. We should still collect some."
