So as we all know, at the end of the Black Trailer Blake cuts her ties with the White Fang, as well as the train cables between her and Adam. As a result, Adam is left in the middle of nowhere with a train full of Dust and would need to contact whoever was supposed to pick them up after they set the charges. Based on this the original plan and maybe even the policy of the White Fang was to destroy anything belonging to the Schnee Dust Company. You know who was planning on stealing large amounts of Dust? I'm going to make this easy for you and just say Cinder.

Blake mentions to Sun that the WF did take Dust, but never as much as they have been stealing lately. With a large train full of the stuff, the White Fang may have taken it all and decided to instead sell it to aid in future projects. Cinder's group in return offered to buy it and they started a partnership from there. Roman at the time may or may not have been on the payroll, but his slow progress eventually lead to Cinder ordering the White Fang to aid Roman in stealing more Dust, explaining their shift in policy and why they were working for Roman.

If all this is accurate, Blake indirectly caused most of the problems in the series so far. Roman would still be stealing Dust, but it would go much slower without the White Fang aiding him.
