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.

The Date Part 1

Nielsen approached the gleaming Duesenberg Model J. He stood beside the powerful automobile, his eyes fixed on the hand crank. With a determined grip, he gave it a swift clockwise turn. The engine roared to life, its growl resonating through the air, as Poul took a step back, a satisfied smile crossing his face.

There's a charm in starting an automobile using a crank, giving him nostalgic memories when he was in his original world where his father allowed him to use a vintage car from the 1930s. However, a hand crank can be dangerous, especially when it is not handled properly. Poul knew this all too well, having heard stories of accidents caused by the crank kicking back violently, injuring those who attempted to start the engine.

Sooner or later, he would introduce an electric starter to their future fleet of automobiles, eliminating the need for the hand crank and minimizing the risks associated with it.
