Blas Tech can't do open business with the Alliance since the Empire came down hard and made them sign papers to strictly sell to the Empire. The Alliance would stop and take possession of any weapons cargo they found of Blas Tech ships in their areas of control.
If Blas Tech was not being secretly paid they would easily be able to evade most of the "commandeering" of weapons cargo by Alliance Forces.

We are going to have to search your vehicle for illegal arms shipments. Please stand over here while we conduct the search.
You have no record of this Blas Tech cargo on your ships cargo invoices.
We will have to confiscate this cargo.

I will make full report to the company that these weapons were intercepted.

I see no reason to detain you. We will confiscate these weapons and you may leave anytime. Thank you for your cooperation.

It was just a routine inspection. The calm and friendly relationship between them seemed more like a business deal than a weapons seizure. Generally the Alliance would seize the smugglers ship but we have let the last few light HWK freighters off with just taking the weapons cashe. We have an astonishingly high rate of capture on the edges of the the Doldur sector.
