About 4,000 years ago the Chinese discovered the secret of the coco on. No one knows exactly how or when this important discovery was ma de. One story says that a young princess was drinking tea in her garden and watching silkworms spin cocoons. By chance one dropped into her te a and the hot tea made it soft. When the girl tried to take the cocoon o ut of her tea, it became separated and she pulled out a long silk thread. The Chinese learned to weave the silk thread into cloth. For 2,000 y ears they were the only people who knew how to make silk. The Chines e merchants sold silk cloth throughout Asia and Europe and became rich. Silk was so expensive that it was called “the cloth of kings” . Everyone wanted to learn how to make silk, but the Chinese kept th e secret carefully guarded①. Finally the secret was stolen. In the sixth century, two monks learned about the silkworms and their cocoons. They spent several years in Chin a and finaly found a way to take some silkworm eggs out of the countr y. The monks always carried bamboo canes②. One day they hid some eg gs in the hollow canes, and walked out of China with them.
