"The tax reforms of 780 instituted by the official Yang Yan (727–81) aimed at saving the declining equal-field system. This created a new structure known as the double-tax system (paid in summer and fall): half was a household tax payable in cash, indicating the rise of monetary economy; and half was a land tax payable in grain. These measures brought stability to the national taxation system, although they did favor those with land."
