Explanation:
This is the only option that can be inferred from the things stated in the excerpt. We can see that King Henry III negotiation skills had nothing to do with the amount of sugar he could get, as it was difficult for everyone to buy it.

It could be true or not, the text doesn't have the information to know it, we only are informed that when Venice took control, the sugar trade was expanded making the fairs unecessary.
<u>The thing that we know is that the English always bought more and more sugar as it was more available, King Henry III first bought three pounds, then four, later three hundred, one hundred years later the English bought thousands of pounds.</u> Therefore the demand increased.
