Go to riften, docks, talk with an argonian, from-deepest-fathoms, she will give you a quest and a dwemer lexicon. Do the quest, and you'll be rewarded a perk of permanent +15% faster improving smithing and +20% bonus from dwemer gear. Then use the lover stone to get a total +30% faster smithing, go to the shrine of Zenithar, east of the monument from the ghost lovers (temple of mara) quest, unmarked, you'll find the shrine since it's a ruined stone construction in the middle of the plains. That'll give you 10% better prices for eight hours. Together with a necklace of minor haggling, you'll get a +22%, and with a couple of perks on speech, even 40%. Then craft steel plate armor, just the main piece, (1 iron, 3 steel, 3 leather strips, 1 corundum) and improve it (1 corundum) and sell it. Do that, and you'll be covered in money and smithing skill in no time.
