During the Qing Dynasty in China, among the young dynasties (aged 16-60), those who exceeded the fixed amount were exempted from paying chogin. In order to collect chogin, the young dynasties were registered (compiled and reviewed) (once every five years), but due to the abuse of the exemption privilege by bureaucrats and local gentry, the falsification of the number of chogin by wealthy households with many chogin, and the non-payment of chogin by poor farmers, the registration became chaotic and it was difficult to collect chogin fairly.
