I got the quest from him (in the encampment) immediately after saving him from the goblins along the road at the start of the game. I bought one small nut at a time, and as soon as I hit number 10 I got the quest.

I'm on the last stage of the quest (going for journal entry #4) and I haven't had to hit him once. I guess some people have to do this for whatever reason, but it definitely isn't something every person has to do.
