Edit the historical track of this paragraph

Tongzhou territory was originally a sandbar in the river and sea area, which appeared in the mid-Southern and Northern Dynasties. After the Northern and Southern Dynasties, some people settled down to cook salt.

In the Tang dynasty, there was a salt pavilion with a defense hall.

After the semi-sandbars in the Tang Dynasty rose to the inland, rivers were dug to transport salt, waterways to Yangzhou were opened, and dams were built to plant wheat and millet, which changed the situation of single salt production.

In the fifth year of Xiande in the later Zhou Dynasty (958), Jinghai County was built, belonging to Tongzhou.

In the first year of Hongwu in Ming Dynasty (1368), Jinghai County was merged into Tongzhou. In the Ming Dynasty, large-scale reclamation was carried out outside the coastal weir, and agriculture gradually developed. Family cotton textile industry and grain, oil and food processing industry are prosperous, and business and cultural undertakings are prosperous.

In the late Ming and early Qing dynasties, the economy declined and the population decreased.
