@GoldenHelmet - The area with the Librarians has 28 Librarians and it sits in an area which covers 4 adjacent chunks (in a square). The Librarians are locked in place, so they can't move across to another chunk.

Because this bug was listed a month ago, I had to do some digging to find the correct save file. The thing is, it appears this bug has now been fixed in the latest version. I have a save file of the trading area just before the Librarians unlinked themselves and I have a save file from a bit later where the same Librarians are unlinked, which is when I posted this bug report.

If I go back to the older saved file: Things that used to trigger this issue were breaking one of the Librarians stations would cause them to all to unlink, or maxing out a couple of trades with one of the Librarians, or sleeping in the only bed which is next to the trading hall. Previously the unlinking would happen within one minecraft day, but now the issue does not occur with the save game doing any of the above actions.

The save file is large (over 30MB) so I couldn't upload it when I created this report. Let me know if you are still interested and how I can send it to you, or just close this report as Resolved.

Please close this ticket. My assumption is that these mobs were killed by surface level lightning and that this is a duplicate of MCPE-121688

@GoldenHelmet  In the current version on Windows 10 I have villagers randomly unlinking from their stations and then causing all of the villagers with the same trade to unlink. There is nothing I have done to cause this. All of my villagers have been traded with, are 1-block-adjacent to their workstations in a straight line and are locked in 2 blocks standing on water inside a trading hall.

The issue comes up approximately every 3 Minecraft days where one group (a particular trade) of villagers will all delink from their workstations, will show the frustration sign and will not restock or relink to their stations.

Not sure if there is another current ticket linked to these issues?

*edit: On day 20 (Bedrock 1.16.100) I am seeing no decrease in prices on the cured and the non-cured villagers even after maxing them out multiple times and at the higher price point, they still returned to 1. I can see that the cured villager (Librarian) offers a better price than the non-cured (Librarian) on the same Level 5 item which both started at the same original price. It appears to me after extensive testing that prices are not temporary and that there are now different popularity level in Bedrock, contradicting both of the issues mentioned in the ticket.

The steps to reproduce the problem appear to be incorrect. If you give a villager a workstation after curing them in Bedrock there is no discount provided (unless the bed has something to do with it?). I've done this 3 times in the past hour in 1.16.100. You need to give the villager a profession before turning them into a zombie villager. 

I can also confirm that with 1.16.100 Bedrock that popularity is now separated into groups and the cured villager does offer a better discount on items than other villagers in a trading hall.

I am currently on day 15 since curing the zombie villager and both the cured villager and nearby villagers in my trading hall are still offering the lowest possible discount.

In terms of popularity level, I have one cured librarian and one standard librarian. The cured librarian offers a name tag at level 5 for 8 emeralds. The regular librarian offers a name tag at level 5 for 17 emeralds. 

I have double maxed out the cured and non cured Librarian and Tool Smith on multiple days where I have bought out one item and then when they restocked at a higher price, I have bought them out again. After 24 game day hours, their prices have all returned back to 1 emerald, or 1 item for an emerald.

Just to respond to @Auldrick's comment. I have been alongside the villagers for the whole 15 days without moving away from the same chunk.

Two people have said that there exist temporary trades and that reduced prices have gone back up, but I'm not seeing it. Can anyone confirm via testing that temporary prices still exist in Bedrock? I've been testing for close to 3 hours and not a single price has permanently risen in my trading hall.
