How to grind Metal trading skill (Precious Metals)

Arr, so ye wish to master the trade of precious metals, do ye? To fill yer hold with glittering gold and silver and have the skill to match? Mark this well, matey: in these waters, yer skill grows not from the selling, but from the buying of such wares. A fine quirk of fate, that.

Two Paths to Fortune

Ye have a choice, scallywag. The first is the old way: port hopping between these cities and their nearby landing spots, a test of yer sailing mettle. The second, for those with heavier coffers, is to use Purchase Orders (POs) to have the goods brought to ye. A Category 4 trade, it is, and these same ports serve ye well for that, too.

A Captain's Edge
