    Reader note

    This book is about a protagonist who travels back to 1911, develops industry, and then begins to dominate the world. However, the industrial development doesn't really begin until around chapter 100, because in that era, without military might, industrialization was impossible. It's not mindless wish-fulfillment, nor is it a system-based story. The protagonist, with a purse strings and a gun, is a slow-burning warlord. There are multiple female leads, each unique, but all ultimately fall in love with the protagonist and help him achieve his dominance. While the current rating isn't high, it's worth reading.
