Best Answer

He wanted to bring riches and treasures from India, China, etc. and sail the world. He needed supplies, ships, money and sailors. The treasures would go to the King or Queen who would sponsor his adventure. He mapped his trip and only made it to South America not knowing it was there. He returned with things but not the gold and other treasures he had wanted to bring back.
