Trade Routes
Now this particular method of making money requires that you acquire some Nodes. Once you’ve obtained some Nodes that are a fair distance from one another, you can start to make serious money by trading between NPCs.
Find out what resources are needed and purchase them from an NPC in another town you’re invested in. You’ll want to look for the Node’s Trade Manager. It’s best to look for a lower market value (seen in the trade menu) for the items you’re buying. If you can buy them for less than standard price you’ll be able to turn a big profit when you sell them later on.
The more you trade, the better the wares you can peddle become. That means this will take a bit of time investment on your part to build a lucrative trading business. But, before you know it, you’ll find yourself swimming in hundreds of thousands of coins.
