    Columbus's offer made the royal family laugh, he, a desperate beggar, wanted to become a nobleman and a governor at once, and in the future he would have to share the wealth of the colony with the king. He left the Spanish royal palace with nothing. He was ready to lobby another country, go through another "terrible, continuous, painful and long battle", and waste an unknown number of years of his life until his wild dreams became reality.

    On his way out of Spain, the queen's messenger caught up with him and summoned him back to the palace. Then, the royal family signed an agreement with him to open up the colony, accepting all his conditions. It turned out that in the civil war and expansion of Spain, many decorated knights and soldiers needed to be rewarded with land, and the royal family did not have enough land, and Columbus's crazy plan just helped to solve this problem.

    Christopher? Columbus had been unfortunate throughout his seafaring career.

    Columbus Jean Heng first dedicated his grand plan to Genoa, hoping to receive official funding to sail to the East. However, at that time, Genoa lost in the Mediterranean business**, and its finances were very difficult, although it was very interested in Columbus's sailing plan, it was unable to support Columbus to realize his huge plan to sail west to the East, and Columbus had no choice but to turn to Portugal, another maritime power.

    Columbus came to Portugal and presented his sailing plans to King John II of Portugal. But John II was a frank and ambitious fellow, and was very happy to hear that such a good thing had happened. However, he didn't want to pay Columbus to go to the scenery, but wanted to do it himself.

    While talking with Columbus, he secretly organized the fleet, sent the captain of his own country, and set sail according to Columbus's plan.

    Not everyone can do things at sea, and the captain sent by the King of Portugal is a big fool, and soon after going to sea, he encountered a hurricane, so he quickly returned to sea to save his life. Instead of blaming himself for his incompetence, the boy slandered Columbus's sailing plans in front of the king. John II was also deaf and ignored Columbus again.

    As a result, the eastward expansion of the western voyage failed again.

    The ancients said: "Blessing is not envy, and disaster is not a single line." While Columbus was in vain due to his voyage, his wife, who had been in trouble, fell seriously ill.

    Despite all the cures, they left Columbus and their five-year-old son behind to return to her creator. Columbus was heartbroken, but there was nothing he could do. Due to the death of his wife, the plan was abandoned, and even life became a problem.

    Columbus had no choice but to take his young son to Spain to join his aunt, wanting to foster the child in his aunt's house first, and then go to the ocean himself. This trip to Spain led to the great navigator's brilliant career.
