Answer:

C) He found a way to treat tobacco so it would sell widely.

Step-by-step explanation:

The strain of tobacco developed by Rolfe was the fare money crop that helped make the Virginia Colony profitable. It was the pillar of the cultivating plantations for ages. Colossal distribution centers, for example, those on Richmond's Tobacco Row, confirm its prominence. Indeed, even just about 400 years after the fact, tobacco figures conspicuously in Virginia's economy.
