Reference for Avodah Zarah 42:4

אבל שדהו לעובד כוכבים מאי שרי מאי טעמא אריסא אריסותיה קעביד מרחץ נמי אמרי אריסא אריסותיה קעביד אריסא דמרחץ לא עבדי אנשי

But renting a field to a non-Jew is permitted! What is the reason? Because people will say that he is merely a tenant working for his tenancy. With regard to a bath-house people will also say that he is working for his tenancy? People do not generally rent a bath-house on terms for tenancy.
