Hi... I wanted a suggestion. I have a story in my mind where the protagonist goes from rags to riches. This journey is a crucial part of my story so I don't want to just gloss it over by saying that he started with nothing, and then suddenly he got lucky and had everything. The protagonist gets success in Construction Business. So I need few logical and credible examples to show how he made a name for himself in comparatively shorter span of time. Like I can say that the prices of land he brought shot up rapidly. But I need to have some solid reasoning behind this sudden price rise. I hope I am making myself clear. So I would be thankful if you guys can come up with few ideas relating to construction business, which can lend logic and credibility to the rapid rise of the protagonist in business world.

Maybe he could make friends with an old man who bought a piece of land that once was worth less but now is worth a lot more? The man left it in his will for the guy?

He manages to land a massive contract after an initial struggle with smaller businesses?

There are probably better ideas but sp far these are the only ones I can think of. Do they help?

It happened with someone I know that he had a land where he had to build a school but then he needed some more space for it and the land/plot behind it could be combined and the land for school could get bigger if the owner of that land was willing to sell it. Usually anyone who desperately needs something on a short notice, he/she are willing to pay as much price as the owner wants ie you can show that just behind your male patragonists plot or land, there was some construction taking place for example a hotel or school and the man building that hotel was ready to pay him as much amount as he demands ( ofcourse in a limit) and this way he had a little loose hand from his difficulties.

Basically, the price of a land rises when it has a value. For example its a commercial place, neat clean etc. Maybe you can show that the place where he had land was developing in matter of months so the value of his land increased.

I hope it helped :)

Thank you so so much for this. Just the kind of example I was looking for. Best thing is that it allows me to highlight protagonist's ingenuity and foresight, and at the same time its very realistic and logical too. Loved it. You would be surprised to know there was an Ekta Kapoor show based on similar premise as your example 😛... Thanks once again... It was a big help :)
