Content of the letter[edit]

I followed the link to the article "Seventeenth-century Indonesian letters in the public record office" to read the letter from the Sultan of Banten to the King of Denmark. As far as I'm able to detect, it doesn't say a word about 176 bahara of pepper. Here's what it says after the formal introductions:

«After that, His Majesty the Sultan wishes to inform King Christian about the conduct of the factor in Banten named Paulli, who succeeded the previous factor in Banten who was named Mikkel(sen). His Majesty the Sultan had instructed [Mikkelsen] to sell 200 pikul of copper in the Coromandel Coast, and the copper was conveyed there by one of Mikkel(sen)’s men. Now Paulli has succeeded Mikkel(sen) in Banten, but the proceeds from the sale of the copper are about to be embezzled by the factor in the Coromandel Coast named Magnus Jacob(sen) together with Factor Paulli in Banten. They have caused His Majesty the Sultan a lot of trouble by refusing to follow the correct procedures; they have imported textiles for trade without submitting a certificate of their sale value, because they are also planning to embezzle the proceeds from the sale of the copper, this is the plot of the factors Magnus Jacob(sen) and Paulli. His Majesty the Sultan sends King Christian a gift of pepper on the Danish ship of Captain Rechter.»

It's a completely different letter than what is being described in the Wikipedia article.
