Creating an Industrial Empire in 19th Century Parallel World

In a tragic accident, mechanical engineer Poul Nielsen and his best friend, civil engineer Jonathan Axelsen, are killed when a truck crashes into the coffee shop where they were hanging out. Suddenly, they find themselves transmigrated to a parallel world in the late 19th-century country of Avalonia. In this world, they'll need to work tirelessly to earn enough pennies to survive. But they won't settle for just getting by - they want to become the Edison, the Chrysler, the Rockefeller, the Carnegie, the Ford, and the Westinghouse of this new world. In a world without electricity, Poul and Jonathan decide to start an electric power distribution company. But that's not enough - they also want to build appliances and motors to make their business profitable. They see the opportunity to revolutionize ground transportation, and they start an automotive manufacturing company. They tackle huge infrastructure projects such as metro stations, skyscrapers, bridges, tunnels, and dams by starting their own civil engineering firm. They even invest in the arms manufacturing industry. But the road to success won't be easy. Fierce competition awaits them, as robber barons are willing to do everything to crush their competitors. Predator against predator, and government intervention. Poul and Jonathan must use all their engineering expertise and business acumen to navigate this treacherous landscape. Join Poul and Jonathan on their journey to become the wealthiest men in the world in a parallel universe where anything is possible.

It wasn't long after Poul noticed someone was standing at the door. 

"Sara?" Poul uttered, his hand still shaking the applicant. "What are you doing…wait…you may go now, John." 

John, the applicant, nodded and quickly left the room, leaving Poul alone with Sara. Poul's expression turned from surprise to concern as he observed Sara's presence in his office.

"Sara, what brings you here? I thought you were in the clinic." 

Sara took a deep breath, composing herself before responding. "Poul, I couldn't help but notice the unusual activity outside the building. There are so many men lining up, and what's this about the Aegis Tactical Services? It sounded militaristic…Is there something that you'd like to tell me?"

"Sara…" 

Just as Poul was about to explain what was happening to her, a feminine voice interjected.

"Poul, the next applicant would be George…wait…Sara?"
