【跟着英剧练发音】The Queens Palaces E01-7(在线收听

 But years later, one king had different ideas for the park. James I didn't cut the finest of figures, yet he was fond of the finest of clothes, especially the best silk. Always short of cash, James realised that silk, a great luxury of the day, might be an excellent way to make some serious money. On the land that is now the gardens of Buckingham Palace, James decided to create a homespun English silk industry with the help of a particular tree, the mulberry.
