The Fruit Tycoon's War

Isabella Evergreen cultivates a barren wasteland, grows cherries. Her land is forcibly taken by jealous villagers. She removes equipment and fruit, leaving dead land. Villagers fail, fall into debt, and beg her to save them. She saves the village by re-leasing the land, providing jobs to pay off debts. She short-sells her rival, lists on NYSE, and her company's market value exceeds 26 billion US dollars.
