What items did other countries want from China in the time period of 1280-1368?
The Chinese had a lot of raw materials and was famous for its trade during that time. It had furs, wax, ointments, spices, and other raw materials, but what it had that no other country during that time had, was silk. The Chinese made sure that no one would get the secret of making silk. If a chinese merchant were to give away the secret, he would be executed. He probably would be executed along with his family too. Since no other country had silk, China sold it at a very high price. The Byzantine Empire, however, was able to get spies in China. The spies then stole some silkworms and smuggled them out of China. Then the Byzantine Empire made silk and sold it at lower prices.
