How was the textile industry managed in Shang and Zhou Dynasties?

During the Shang and Zhou dynasties, due to the further development of social economy, the demand for textiles by the royal court was increasing day by day. The Zhou royal family set up an official position related to textiles to master the production and collection of textiles.

There are many kinds of silk fabrics in Shang and Zhou dynasties, such as plain silk, wrinkled silk, twisted silk, vermilion dyed silk, double warp and double weft palindrome, etc.
