Chapter 292 Riot 3
"Lord county magistrate! What happened today was caused by this old lady. She encouraged the villagers to make trouble. Hurry up and arrest this old lady!" Chen Baojia stood up and pointed angrily at He Huaniang.

"You, don't talk nonsense! When did I encourage them?" Hehua Niang stammered. When she heard that Chen Bao's family asked the county magistrate to arrest her, she became timid. She didn't want to be arrested.

"Folks, please listen to me. We never said that we would not distribute rice seeds to you. It's just that we don't have so many rice seeds this season, so we only distribute them in Los Angeles County. I promise to let you in next season." Also plant hybrid rice! Please believe me!" Li Yao stood up and said to the crowd, that these people can walk here, which means that they are not far from Los Angeles County, and her next goal is to plant the hybrid rice seeds Distributed to areas around Los Angeles County.

After listening to Li Yao's words, everyone whispered among themselves below.

"Folks, I can testify to what Mrs. Chen said. The Chen family has this hybrid rice seed. The current emperor also knows about it. The emperor also hopes that people in the entire Dayu Kingdom can grow this Chen family. Hybrid rice, but it needs a process, so you have to take it slowly, since Mrs. Chen has already promised you, then you don’t want it, and the seeds of this hybrid rice will be distributed to you next season.” Seeing that the crowd had calmed down, the county magistrate began to reason with them.

This near-miss riot finally subsided because of the government's suppression. Otherwise, the Chen family might have been crushed.

"It's really thanks to the county master and those officers and soldiers who arrived in time this time, otherwise the consequences would be unimaginable!" Chen Shizhu said. After those who wanted to grab the rice seeds were driven away by the officers and soldiers, the family sat in the hall in shock. They were terrified. Those people seemed to risk their lives just to get some rice seeds. Thinking of the madness of those people just now, Chen Shizhu was in a cold sweat.

Chen Huangshi also sat aside pale from fright.

"Yao'er, I don't think it's better than this. Let's discuss it with the county magistrate. In the future, the rice seeds should be distributed by the government." Chen Wenbin said after thinking for a moment, he didn't want to put his family in danger anymore.

"That's fine." Li Yao replied. In fact, she can understand the behavior of those people just now. She still remembers the days when she just passed through sweet potatoes for every meal. She just couldn't stand the sweet potatoes for a few days, let alone Those who can't even eat sweet potatoes.

Thinking of this, Li Yao felt that her responsibility was even heavier. After one year at most, everyone in the whole country would have to eat rice. Li Yao secretly made up her mind.

Rice seeds were distributed to every village in Luo County, and the land was plowed, and Li Yao also planted the seedlings.Chen Wenbin was planning to take his wife back to the county seat the next day, when Da Lang suddenly returned to Chen's house in a panic.

"Da Lang, why are you back? What's the matter?" Li Yao felt uneasy when she saw Da Lang's face was smudged.

"Ma'am, I'm sorry!" Da Lang knelt down in front of Li Yao and cried.

"What's going on? Tell me quickly." Chen Wenbin frowned, and he also had an ominous premonition.

"Young master, ma'am, the food store is on fire!"

Li Yao staggered and almost fell to the ground, Chen Wenbin quickly grabbed her with his sharp eyes and hands.
