Farming Rostygold?

So i need tons of rostygold for obtaining a gang of hoodlums. I'm wondering what's an efficient way to do it. Presently i'm duelling the black ribbon club, that gives a nice bundle at a time. but it's not clear which one is the most efficient to fight, or if this is anything close to an efficient rostygold source at all.
i'd appreciate other ideas

If you don't care about your Connected: Society, you could go to Watchmaker's Hill and hunt rats, I think the results scale with your dangerous, and after that you can turn the rats into Rostygold.

So while Feducci is dangerous, losing to him only drops you about a level's worth of CPs of Running Battle. When you end up down a slow river, you can search for the Courier for the Dead card. Gaining that ability (and not fulfilling your commission) will allow you to use that against Chi Lan and increase the reward (I can't further remember if it takes the luck check away too).

Watchmakers Hill - Unfinished Business - Wade into the Ring Fights
It costs five actions, and becomes 100% straightforward with a dangerous of 167, but is very lucrative.

This is why when on the "A Name Scrawled in Blood" Black Ribbon part of the advancement, I do not spend any Rostygold from the Black Ribbon rewards. You'll need 10K for the Hoodlums (before grinding for the 8 Uses of Villains. Temporarily switching to or promoting upward to Enforcer gets 1 a week, 1 favours criminals and a bunch of other goodies. And for the Use of Villains, other grinding methods for the 20 Journals of Infamy, 80 Appalling Secrets per or doing the Assassin's Carousel or winning the rare Success still also apply.)
If on this Name segment 5, you also get a healing for Rostygold option which is nice. If past this point, the prior suggestions are fine. if not here yet, get the value to 5 exactly. That means destroying the Sorrow Spiders first.
