Quark! Just a washed up business man trying to run a bar on Terok Nor. This might be a herald of good times for you! The Federation has just taken possession of Terok Nor from the Cardassian Union. The Occupation of Bajor is over, and it's your turn to make better times for yourself and your brother Rom. One day, soon after re-opening the bar at Deep Space Nine (The Federation Name for Terok Nor), one of your cousins has offered you a 90/10 split for Slug-O-Cola, which, despite being far from much of a business deal, would still be magnitudes more profit for you than you've ever made in your life time.
Your mother is also currently visiting the station. This has brought no end of embarrassment to you. After all, your mother can't be on board Deep Space Nine unless she wears clothing. This announcement of dear Moogie's came at the last minute. It may be a blessing in disguise. However, if the authorities find out that you could be harboring a female businesswoman, allowing her to earn profit without handing her over to the authorities, or at least reporting her, you could be fined or even arrested.
How do you take the news of your dear Moogie? (Your Mother)

Wait, does he even know about her business acumen yet? The episode doesn't even occur until the the third season. That being said...

It's the Quark way. He'll hate it, but he'll take any advantage he can get. Rule of Acquisition Sixty-Two: Profit is its own reward. The riskier the road, the greater the profit.

"Why Quark, how thoughtful of you!" Moogie compliments. The outrageous feminist Ferengi is far ahead of her time. Wearing clothing, making profits, arguing with male Ferengi. The list could go on and on, but she sure does know how to make profit, even more than most men.
"Sluu-go Cola, it's the slimiest cola in the galaxy!" Is a constant streaming theme song of the interstellar commodity that so many millions across the Alpha and Beta Quadrants have been enjoying for decades now. Ever since Captain Kirk's time, in fact. You can't get it out of your head, it's so catchy. Unfortunately, something just won't quite click with you about this whole deal. A 90/10 split between your cousin Gaelar and yourself is incredibly lucrative, but nowhere near as . . . lucrative as it could be. Your dear Moogie has been thinking about this deal, and attempting to goad you into taking double the profit. When asked how you could accomplish this deal, she points out that Grand Nagus Zek has been attempting trade with some kind of political entity in the Gamma Quadrant called "The Dominion'.
With 100,000 vats of tulaberry wine, granted to The Slug-Oh Cola Company, Grand Nagus Zek could provide a new alternative flavor of Slug-Oh Cola across the Alpha, Beta, and Gamma Quadrants, effectively doubling the profits of an already insanely lucrative venture. (Nagus Zek taxes the entire Ferengi Alliance, so he technically gets a little bit of everything). So Moogie suggests that you could actually achieve a 50/50 profit. The danger to this is even if you succeed, you'd be a high profile target of your enemies.
[x] Accept her advice.
[x] Stay a low profile. . . keep the lop sided deal.
[x] This isn't time to act quite yet. Who's the Dos, and who are the Dominion? Maybe you need answers first.

If we do some research, we might find other ways to make profit.

"Oh alright Mother. You have a point. I'm a little concerned about this, but maybe a female CAN have the lobes of a man."
You establish a comlink with one of the Dos ambassadors. . . he informs you that there isn't 100,000 vats of Tullaberry wine in the entire sector. They would need to plant more, then expand their business a bit. . . the plan seems to come to a screeching halt. The Grand Nagus appears on screen in the middle of your conversation.
"Quark!" The Grand Nagus exclaims. "How about that deal?"
