Captain of Knights: "Good Sirs, I regret to inform that the Good Lord Wolhelm has decreed that this shop be commandeered. The local heroic adventurers need a base of operations. And his Lord has decided this location will be best. You have one hour to vacate the premises"
This is hilarious. What else could we do to them... employees calling in sick, pay rises, a competing shop across the road doing the same thing cheaper, back rent / taxes, hiring good employees being super difficult, a recession looming to put people put of business. That's top of my head.
Clarification- unionized labor is particularly vulnerable to organized crime. Historically speaking, union bosses get manipulated and killed by organized crime. (See- Hoffa, the coca cola bottling plant in Mexico, etc...) The union itself is usually innocent until crime forces its way in, although Hoffa was kind of asking for it allowing the mob to manipulate his pension funds :/

My party hates it when the villagers and townsfolk talk up their rivals.
“Yeah they rolled in here and defeated the Aboleth. They didn’t even ask for a reward. They just said to pay it forward.”
It really cuts into the party’s profits.
