Zhang Quoin a Chinese explorers mostly called the father of the silk road his traveled opened trade between china and its wester neighbors. At first the Chinese only knew how to make silk. When other country's learned about silk it became a highly priced material. You could not just carry something heavy you had to make it easy to carry so it can be light
