Making echoes without fuss?

There are many talks about making echoes, but as far as I could tell, most requires some sort of maneuver. Sometimes I just don't feel like doing them (especially when I have to use a smart phone), I hope to find one that I could just mindlessly try again and again. So which single action in London pays the most?

You are probably trading the same souls over and over, just packaged in hedge funds with increasingly better names.

If you get 'A trade in souls' with Nex/fate, and take the morally questionable option, then souls will eventually become worth 3p each via Hell's Fence.
You can endlessly grind souls in Spite with "The_prince_of..." storylet in unfinished business. One click gives 1-120 (massive variance, but averages out to 60 if you do it enough), so almost 180 PPA once you account for the turn-in.

You're right of course, should have mentioned that - the most souls you can trade is 1000 at a time.
If the turn-in was just one action with no benefit, it's more like 170 PPA, but you get a decent chunk of connected:hell and 2 appalling secrets (+ some heartless!), so it's somewhere in-between. Will very occasionally give you some suspicion as well.
Also, you can save up many thousands of souls like this, and turn them all in at once, fulfilling the 'mindlessly...again & again' requirement.
