How to understand the method of eating separately in taxation?

Eating in separate kitchens means that the whole family doesn't eat together. Do your own thing and eat your own food. This situation is more common in rural areas.

It's called "dividing the stove to eat."

After entering the period of economic reform, the financial relationship between the central and local governments began to be based on the financial "contracting" agreement signed between the local and central governments, forming a financial relationship based on the division of revenue and expenditure and self-balance.
