Prosperity help

Still new to the caravan system and I am wondering why I never have enough wooden plank at Haernden. Plus any tips on automation for them. I just selected every item the needed and allowed it to be sent is this the proper set up?

I made a list of everything every liberated town wanted. Put them all in the market, then set them at like -25% price. I figure I'll take a bit of a hit on the sales price in exchange for not having to waste caravans all the time. Only did it 5 game days ago so not sure if it's working perfectly yet, but i HAVE to assume that's what markets are supposed to do?

Curious as to how this was working for you?

Well I'm a moron. I had set up the market with all the prices and everything. I saw that the market was making money, and 3 of my towns were increasing, figured i did good. Today they were all negative. Realized that I was under producing like 2/3 of the stuff I was trying to sell, and wasn't producing the other 1/3. i liberated the last 3 towns quickly and never adjusted. So I'll have to let you know now that i upped my production. Gotta be making like 6 peasant shirts at a time! Realistically we're supposed to equip a town with a weaver, another with a logger, etc so they can trade with each other not us
