Certainly one of Bona Fides, Grey Men, and Spoils. Whirring Contraptions and Legal Documents are steadily accessible, but extremely tiresome to grind. Personal Recommendations are either damnably expensive or slow and luck-based. Everything else can be gotten from conversions or fast-ish grinding. (If you really want Master's Blood badly, Sweet is passable.)

Grey Men is probably overkill unless you've got some particular need for legal documents. (They're a poor route to the library and a terrible route to the Clipper, so don't be fooled by lots of options using them.)

Bona Fides is a big help with a Salon, but if you're not in a rush Parties are quite profitable while they earn Recommendations. Also, you have to get kicked out of court - not as rough as it used to be, but a pain if you want to grind SoTC 10 first.

Spoils is a solid time-saver across the board, works you towards a ship and a Salon simultarnously. It'd be my primary suggestion.
