Can you believe that a little old lady in china many years ago learned how to extract the silk from a small worm called the silk worm. Many people copied the process and started raising silk worms. The silk industry became a great commodity for China. China got rich from silk and the demand for silk. The roads that the silk growers and trucks had to follow became known as the Silk Road. I think this could be called a miracle that a little old lady in china took a worm and turned it into the greatest commodity of China.
