What is the job of the bile when added after the stomach?

The food after being digested by the stomach forms chyme. Chyme is highly acidic, considering that the stomach has HCl of pH 1-2(interestingly, the stomach lining itself is changed every 2 weeks to avoid being damaged by the acid). If this chyme comes in contact with the lining of the intestine, it can severely damage the cells. Bile contains bile salts which are alkaline in nature. So its basic function is to neutalise the chyme.
