A fruit shop owner in East China's Anhui Province has spent nearly one million yuan building a KTV in a fruit market to provide free entertainment to farmers who come to deliver fruits. The news has gone viral online. The owner's wife told reporters Sunday that they also provide free meals to fruit farmers.

A staff member of the store said that every day the farmers bring fruits to the store for sale. While they are waiting, the owner provides them with free meals and the farmers can also have fun at the KTV for free. Videos trending on the internet showed many men and women singing and dancing in a room. Netizens said that the owner must be a caring and kind person. "This is so great that it helps enrich the lives of local fruit farmers," one netizen commented.

According to the owner's wife, her husband is not a fan of singing. After seeing that the farmers worked very hard all year round, he decided to find a way for the farmers to relax and have fun. Then he built a KTV, which is free for the local farmers who come to sell fruits.
