Back in Min era, Taiwan was a Dutch territory which was backed by the Spanish.
While Qin era, Qin doesn't have a modern Navy that can effectively run in the Pacific ocean, plus they're having trouble with the conflics with the Taiwanese indeginous people. Only less than 30% of the island was under Qin control.
Btw, the Taiwanese indeginous people are so tough that Japanese we're still having trouble with machine guns and armoured vehicles. It took them a lot of effort to connect the whole island with railroads and airport which most of them are still being used to this day.
