To access the Hustle and Grind side quest, you must complete all Phenomenon Intel in the Grasslands region and obtain Beck's Protorelic .
All Grasslands Phenomenon Intel
The side quest starts with Beck, the owner of Beck's Business, giving out questions for Cloud to answer. You will proceed through the quest no matter how Cloud answers.
Go to the marked area down the road, heading eastward out of Kalm on your Chocobo and defeat five Grasslands Wolves. Use Ice attacks to stagger them and make sure to dodge their Throat Clamp attack.
After defeating the Wolves, you will have to fight two Bandits and two Devil Riders. The Bandits are weak to Fire while the Devil Riders are weak to Lightning.
Take out the Devil Riders first, since they tend to interrupt your moves a lot. Use a long-range character to pressure and stagger them, as they're difficult to deal with close-up. The Bandits should be much easier to defeat now, especially using skills like Cloud's Firebolt Blade.
