I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'expression of delight to get trade bargain' is the definition.
I can't judge whether this definition defines the answer.

'expression of delight to get trade' is the wordplay.
'expression of delight' becomes 'whee' (I've seen this in another clue).
'to get' becomes 'land' (landing is a kind of getting).
'trade' becomes 'deal' (synonyms).
'whee'+'land'+'deal'='WHEEL AND DEAL'

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for wheel and deal that I've seen before include "Engage in unscrupulous commerce" , "be an operator" , "Engineer" , "Engage in shrewd bargaining to advance one's own interests" .)
