He Qiaoyuan (1558–1632) was an official in Fujian during the Ming dynasty, known for arguing in 1630 for the repeal of the 1626 ban on foreign trade, and for being a proponent of the silver trade.[1] As a scholar, he also composed the Fujian Gazetteer, the Mingshan Storehouse, and the Min Shu (in 1619).[2]
