During the era before the Qin Dynasty, local people began to boil salt in a scattered form. From the West Han Dynasty to the middle part of the Qing Dynasty, Huai salt had always been one of the main financial sources of the feudal dynasty. In the Tang Dynasty, Yancheng was still one of the sea gates in our country.
