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.

Heartful Moment

After signing the contract, both parties shook hands. The British Empire and the Axelsen & Nielsen Arms Manufacturing Company had just sealed a deal.

"Expect the first batch of shipments within four months, as you can see, we have a lot of orders from a lot of clients to meet," Jonathan said. 

"Just make it quick," Prince Alexander said. "As both of you are aware, the British Empire is in the middle of the war against the Russian Empire, which is currently armed with your weapons, and making it hard for our troops to advance."

"We understand the urgency of the situation but you must know, Prince Alexander, that the clients who came first are the ones we must prioritize. However, we assure you that we will do our utmost to expedite the process and deliver the AN-M1 rifles to your forces as soon as possible," Poul responded diplomatically, conscious of the delicate balance they needed to maintain between their clients.
