He did it by having the portquese ships go to africa.They came back with Afrian gold.so the portugal people wanted to do the slave trade to make people there slaves.And prince henry had them go explore because if they wanted to be apart of the slave trade they have to go across a route.This answer is true :)
Prince Harry the Navigator was a Portuguese navigator who was responsible in the development of European exploration and also continued the works of Christopher Columbus.
As the son of King John I of Portugal, he had access to substantial royal funds, and used this to support voyages of exploration. Prince Henry himself did not go on any of these dangerous voyages.
