After the autumn wood

Having traveled to America in the year 1862, this was the beginning of a dream, the finest of times.
What constitutes a true master of success?
Having some notable descendants hardly counts for anything.
To build an Oil Empire alongside Rockefeller
To place Carnegie on the throne of the steel magnate
To help Ford propel the industrialization of automobiles worldwide
To lead Edison to monopolize the future of the electrical industry
To be an Angel Investor for Morgan's capital
Hear this, applause!

American success master

The factory manager of the steel refining plant was known as Lightning, a nickname that originated from the moment he was born, just as a bolt of lightning tore through the night sky.


Remarkable people are often the subject of many fabricated extraordinary tales by those around them, thereby achieving the effect of mythologizing their roles.


Originally, Lightning owned two iron mines; his power was among the top at the time, with very few challenging his authority.


As he aged, Lightning sold his iron mines and transformed from a mine owner into a farm owner, embarking on a life of retirement.


It just happened to coincide with Tsarist Russia's abolition of serfdom, luckily it wasn't implemented nationwide but trialed in a specific region.


Lightning knew that as a landowner who rose from the underworld, he was a target for culling, and if he didn't disassociate now, he would be held accountable.
