its a think of the different economic changes. i am not sure but its possible u can increase that prices too by using the mod options Economy/diplomacy. Which means u maybe need to pay even more or u get more. I have an Blacksmith making 6k per week production tools, because the price is always around 2k and more there. But its still after i deactivated this in the mods. So i am not sure, but after deactivating, the amount of the traffics from you own towns goes back to normal worth, because i got around 50k tariffs from one town. Which is a little bid much.

But i am not sure why u cannot remove the businness, just go to the productive and the chef there and talk to him that u want to sell the business. Than u will get some money back and the business ist closed.

yeah it always says are we leaveing? It is not giving me the option to discontinued the business.

I'm dealing with the same issue... Losing money and the dye worker keeps repeating: "are we leaving?" When addressed.

I'm Also having this problem and it would suck if I had to stop playing because one naked auts kept burning my money and refusing to be fired.
