In 1821, when the Chinese government prohibited importation of opium into the country's ports, Lintin became a base for drug smugglers; old boats hulks, anchored near the island, served as warehouses and depots where imported opium would be reloaded to smaller boats to be smuggled into Guangzhou and other ports.

Da Kina i 1821 forbød import av opium, ble Lintin til base for smuglere; gamle skip ankret opp ved øya og tjente som mellomlagre og depoter hvorfra opiumet kunne omlastes til småbåtert for så å bli smuglet inn til Guangzhou eller andre havner.
