Introduction to Yancheng

Yancheng was a land in ancient times, and later Lu Chen became a coastal plain. After the founding of the People's Republic of China, it can be confirmed that Yancheng became land at least 20,000 to 30,000 years ago.

Salt industry, fishery and agriculture are developed in Yancheng history, especially the production of Huai salt. In the pre-Qin period, salt was cooked sporadically. From the Western Han Dynasty to the mid-Qing Dynasty, Huai salt was always one of the main financial resources of the feudal dynasty.
