Overview
The Zhentarim Basement is accessed through a barn on the western side of Waukeen's Rest. Inside is a jumpy man named Salazon, who will ask for a password. Rugan will give the player this password if they save him during the quest Find the Missing Shipment, otherwise passing any of the dialogue ability checks with Salazon will have him stand down.

Store
The following items are offered by Brem once you gain the trust of the Zhentarim:
The Jolty Vest- Giantbreaker
Titanstring Bow
Gloves of Hail of Thorns
Gloves of Thievery
Rupturing Blade
Note: These items are locked behind certain quest/dialogue choices. They will only appear in Brem's inventory if you gain Zarys and her group's trust. The items can then be acquired through trading, pick-pocketing, or looting Brem's corpse (if you decide to kill the group anyway after gaining their trust).
If you antagonize Zarys in any way, the group will turn hostile, and the items won't appear in Brem's inventory, making it impossible to acquire them. In particular, if you had convinced Rugan to cross the Zhents and let you take the shipment, then the only way to gain Zarys's trust is to follow her order to finish off Rugan. It's not possible to obtain the shipment, spare Rugan's life, and get access to the items above.
