The stomach empties into the duodenum.
The liver secretes bile into the common hepatic duct. If the sphincter choledochus is closed (it usually is), then the bile refluxes into the gall bladder through the cystic duct. When the sphincter of choledochus opens - with a general opening of the Sphincter of Oddi, the bile is secreted into the duodenum.
Both empty into the duodenum.
