I didn't check the other secondary factions from that quest, but the merchants hated me as well as the banker in High Keep (who I believe is on Carson McCabe faction).

Good call on the bard though. Didn't know about that option!
The guards are on "The Freeport Militia" faction and also "Coalition of Tradefolk underground"

Pretty sure that if the Tradefolk hate you and the Freeport Militia is okay with you, it's gonna land somewhere in the middle.

There are a few quests that you can do to improve your faction with the Coalition of Tradefolk Underground, but be wary that the opposing factions are usually Knights of Truth/Priests of Marr. Anytime you go near a Paladin or Cleric guild, con everyone you see.

Cutthroat rings: http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=620
Evil version of Deathfist Slashed belts: http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=115
Orc pawn picks: http://everquest.allakhazam.com/db/quest.html?quest=619

All of these are easy quests to improve Tradefolk Underground/The Freeport Militia factions, but decrease Knights of Truth/Priests of Marr.

You can fix your Knights of Truth faction by giving Fabian gold. Here are the faction hits listed from ZAM:

Your faction standing with League of Antonican Bards got better.
Your faction standing with Knights of Truth got better.
Your faction standing with Guards of Qeynos got better.
Your faction standing with Ring of Scale got worse.
Your faction standing with Mayong Mistmoore got worse.

When you try to fix Priests of Marr, most quests give you negative faction his to The Freeport Militia. Also it appears that most quests to fix Priests of Marr faction are given in the cleric/paladin guilds by NPCs whose primary faction is Priests of Marr, and they probably won't hand out those quests if you aren't already liked by them.

Best bet is to just get The Freeport Militia faction up as high as you can, and you MAY become apprehensive (depending on your race/deity/class) to guards and some merchants.
