So, get your sprinklers laid out to save yourself the hassle of watering and start growing crops! :-) You can place them in any building and pretty much anywhere on the map that an NPC won't walk over. If nothing else, remember this: you never have to be "done" and just say, "whelp, that's enough kegs" because you think you've run out of room. Wine, juice, jelly, pickles - that's the key. It just keeps going up, too, more gold per day.

A little over halfway through the second year, you could push that up to an average of 30-50k a day. Really, just shortly after the second year starts, you should be making 10k plus in a day without making a sweat (and that's a conservative estimate, assuming you did lots of mining, fishing, socializing, all of the above in Stardew Valley). It might seem like it's a lot of work and way too much to keep up with, but that's where you need to start amassing sprinklers. Ideally, you should have hundreds of kegs, and as much farmland growing crops as you can each season (the greenhouse would ideally have something high-yielding, like starfruit, growing around the clock). Instead, save ALL of them for processing into an artisanal good. The most common method to become wealthy as efficiently as possible is to build as many kegs and/or preserve jars as you can, and completely abandon the idea of selling your crops directly after harvest. In fact, if you really hit "endgame" and play long enough (not that long, really, a few dozen hours at most), you'll hit that much money many times over.

It's not impossible to make that much gold.
