Answer:

ear King,

I am an explorer looking forward to embarking on a new expedition looking for new lands and riches for our land. In exchange, I am asking for the crown to pay for the cost of it.

If you pay the expedition, I would be able to go into new and unknown lands that may have natural resources. We can use them for the country's benefit. Also, it will allow my crew and me to buy the necessary equipment to defend ourselves in case of an assault.

In previous expeditions, explorers have not only found natural resources but also gold and silver. The chances to find more of it are high since previous explorations to neighboring lands have succeeded in their search. Paying for the exploration is beneficial since I can bring gold and plate to you and increase the county's wealth. It would be a little amount of money that you will have to invest to earn considerable benefits.

I hope that you agree to pay for the exploration since It is an offer that will benefit you and the country for the reasons mentioned above.

Yours sincerely,

Arthur Johnson.

Step-by-step explanation:

In a persuasive letter, we have to convince the reader, in this case, to pay for our expedition. To do so, we have to name why it is a good idea to pay for it. We have to mention the benefits that the expedition will bring and show that it is a little investment for something bigger. We should not be demanding, and we have to use a friendly style but be confident.
